strongest ending of the series besides yakuza 0 individual parts are good, as a whole they're a little messy shinada's story and combat is noticeably the weakest sidestories were super fun for all characters
all the new characters are interesting in their own ways i enjoyed having the story broken up into parts, i think it helped with the pacing combat is fun with each character having a unique style story is good, i liked how everything pieced together
generally worse than its predecessors in every way combat is clunkier and the minigames aren't very fun i liked the morning glory/okinawa story parts a lot but the rest of it is pretty messy, a lot of the plot twists make no sense
