* The page picture shows the final boss of the spearfishing minigame: the Bloody Shark, which manages to sneak up on Kiryu and bite down on him, dragging him around the ocean and trying to tear him apart. What does Kiryu do? It's ''[[RatedMForManly Kiryu]]'', what the hell do you ''[[MegatonPunch think]]'' he does?

* The PowerWalk where Kiryu, escorted by Akiyama and Hirose's family, go to the Millenium tower. Kiryu makes it clear he is done with the Tojo disrespecting the former Chairman as he punches a cocky lieutnant asking his business.

* Haruka's MamaBear moment when we see Tatsukawa's failed attempt to kidnap Haruto. When he tries taking the baby from her, [[GroinAttack she knees him right in the bag]] and books it. Even her getting run down right after has its awesomeness, as its later noted if she relaxed her grip even slightly during the running over, Haruto would have been roadkill. Even getting full on slammed by a speeding car, she didn't lose her grip for an instant.

* [[CoolShip The Yamato Mark II]], the true identity of the Secret of Onomichi, finally being revealed. It's given an absolute abundance of shots showing it in all its glory as it rises out from a hidden hangar underneath the shipyard's harbour, and remains an imposing presence throughout the cutscenes that follow. Once you're given free reign to explore at the start of the finale chapter, you can go to the docks to get a closer look at the super-battleship yourself, and it's clear just how much it utterly ''dwarfs'' everything else there.

* Even though he's signed his own death warrant in doing so, and knows as much, Big Lo denounces Yuta as his successor so he, Haruka, and his new grandson can live in peace. And he chooses to FaceDeathWithDignity, giving Kiryu a final clue to find the secret of Onomichi.

* The end of the Return of the Pocket Circuit Fighter substory. Not only is there a BackToBackBadasses moment when violence inevitably erupts as usual, you finally see him regain his old confidence, repair the relationships between his son and wife, AND you get him as part of your clan, too!

** For as [[AntiClimaxBoss disappointing]] as the final battle with Iwami was viewed to be by fans, it's still awesome in its own way. It may be easy, but then again, Kiryu can absolutely ''[[CurbstompBattle clean the floor]]'' with Iwami's sorry ass. In the end, when it came time to fight, [[SmugSnake Iwami was all talk]]. And Kiryu proved that beautifully. As did his thoughts on the objective.

* The end of the [[spoiler:Return of the Pocket Circuit Fighter]] substory. Not only is there a BackToBackBadasses moment when violence inevitably erupts as usual, you finally see [[spoiler:him]] regain his old confidence, repair the relationships between [[spoiler:his son and wife]], AND you get him as part of your clan, too!

-->'''Kiryu:''' I need to talk to Sugai. But... I can show myself up.

** Tsuneo for his part does not fare much better, only getting in a few cheap shots as Kiryu still can't fight back; as the situation suddenly turns against him, Tsuneo moves to finish Kiryu off only to have his punch blocked and basically be told ''he has no idea who he's dealing with''.

* Unable to act come the finale as Haruka and Haruto are held hostage, Kiryu is at the mercy of Tojo chairman Sugai, who proceeds to take out years of frustration at not being taken seriously by repeatedly smashing Kiryu's face with a length of pipe. Landing a final hit and screaming for Kiryu to die, he expects the Dragon of Dojima to drop in defeat; instead, Kiryu merely returns his gaze to the chairman with a [[DeathGlare glare]] that is perhaps the finest ever captured in a game; Sugai is ''visibly'' shaken, prompting wannabe yakuza Tsuneo to take over.
