* The Tojo Funeral Escape. Framed for attempting to kill Kazama, Kiryu has to fight his way past the ''entire Shimano Family'' to get out. It's the first mob battle in the game, and it perfectly sets the tone for just how much of a badass Kiryu truly is.

Weapon Of Choice is now a disambig


** If you persevered and completed Majima Everywhere before the fight (unlocking Majima's [[WeaponOfChoice Demonfire Dagger]] in the process) and finish Shimano off with it, then it becomes downright [[LaserGuidedKarma poetic]] and [[CatharsisFactor cathartic]] to cut the bastard down with the very weapon Majima's eye was sliced off with, on top of avenging [[VideoGame/Yakuza4 Majima's]] and [[VideoGame/Yakuza0 Makoto's]] suffering in the process.

* The added cutscene in ''Kiwami'' showing Nishiki finally JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope. Matsushige finally gets on Nishiki's last nerve by grumbling that, even though Kiryu killed Dojima, he'd rather work under him while Nishiki is ''mourning the death of his sister''. Nishiki stands and drives his knife into Matsushige's stomach, twisting it for good measure, and tells Matsushige that it was him that killed Dojima, not Kiryu. He then pulls his knife out and Matsushige's [[HighPressureBlood blood splatters him from head to toe]], Nishiki tosses the knife to the side and [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone looks down at his bloody hands]]...[[IgnoredEpiphany and then]] [[GoodHairEvilHair slicks his hair back with it]]. Never has an ExpositoryHairstyleChange been so hardcore.
* The flashback sequence of Kazama/Fuma rescuing Kiryu from Lau Ka Long. The man proves not only is he a ParentalSubstitute to Kiryu, but he's a PapaWolf as well, storming in guns blazing.
* The climactic showdown between the Shimano Family and the Kazama Family. Bonus points for the Japanese version of Kiwami using a lyrical version of [[ThemeMusicPowerUp Receive You]] as the stage theme.



** This actually extends to later games too: Despite Kiryu stepping down by the first game's ending, his reputation stuck, to the point where he's revered as a legend!
