It’s okay if you haven’t, the large man hits hard but he also doesn’t have as much health as his stature would indicate. This time you’re limited to using Brawler Style (naturally) so hopefully you’ve spent a few points leveling that path. This bizarre fight introduces another unnamed opponent known as Large Man. Leave the inn and head west, following the pink mini-map arrow to your destination. It’s located in South Yashikimachi, which is on the west side of town. Now that night has fallen, it’s time to head to the bathhouse. When you’d like to progress the story, return to the inn and go upstairs to your room. You can partake in karaoke, fishing and more.

When you’ve successfully avoided them, head to the pink marker on your map to progress the story.Īfter the cutscene wraps up, you’ll be prompted to return to the inn, Teradaya, but feel free to explore the town until you’re satisfied.

In this instance your pursuers don’t follow too far, so sprinting away is likely enough to lose them. You’ll have to run and hide from them, using hiding spots and obstacles to lose your pursuers. Then head to the large gates north of the market to start a cutscene involving the Shinsengumi. You’ll be rewarded with an exquisite cog and some virtue. After a humorous twist, defend the shopkeep from the pair of violent men. This starts a substory, a sidequest that usually focuses on one or two minor characters. Be sure to approach from the south or you’ll be unable to start the cutscene. If you head to Ebisu Pawn Fushimi, you’ll start a cutscene involving a chanting mob. Beat them up and you’ll be rewarded with 1 Ryo. Heading west from here brings you to the market, where approaching the Fukufuku Pub will trigger another cutscene where a pair of ronin are trying to drink without paying. Shrines have also gained functionality, allowing you to pray for some virtue, or spend the virtue you’ve already earned. They’re earned by helping people around town or completing tasks in your Diligence Records, which you can view from the pause menu. If you’ve played previous games in the Yakuza/Like a Dragon franchise, these are analogous to Completion Points. Once the fight is won, the priest will teach you about Virtue. This starts another fight, but you’re allowed to switch Styles freely again so use what you’re most comfortable with. If you head south toward the pink shrine icon, you’ll trigger a cutscene of a priest being harassed by a couple of Ronin.

Afterward, you’re free to roam around Kyo. When you’ve beaten them all, another cutscene will begin. You’re forced to use Swordsman style, so do your best to dodge their attacks and use charged attacks to inflict heavy damage. When they’re all done you’ll be facing a handful of swordsmen, all using wooden swords. Leave your room, and head down the stairs to activate a couple of cutscenes.
