Yakuza: Like A Dragon's Kiryu's Relationship Status Revealed
Yakuza: Like A Dragon director Masayoshi Yokoyama has revealed that Kiryu from Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s latest installment has not actually proposed to anyone. This news has sparked debate among Yakuza fans, who have long wondered about Kiryu’s relationship status and speculated whether he’s ever had intimate experiences. Despite having seemingly intimate relationships in the past, such as his relationship with Kaoru Sayama in Kiwami 2, it wasn’t always clear if Kiryu had gone all the way.
Yakuza series producer Masayoshi Yokoyama previously stated that he believed Kiryu was still a virgin because he held onto his pure love for Yumi Sawamura. However, a recent clip from Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth showed Kiryu and Ichiban having a heart-to-heart conversation, where Kiryu suggests that he has proposed before and has “been around a few times.”
This revelation surprised fans, but Yokoyama clarified in an interview that Kiryu’s comment was meant as a lighthearted joke and should not be taken seriously. “It’s just something that happened in the flow of the conversation,” Yokoyama explains, “so I don’t think it’s something that we need to dive into very deeply. I think that if there’s any kind of exploration, it’ll be something that’s very small.”
It’s true that the narrative of Like A Dragon has thus far tended to play with the game’s characters in a lighthearted manner. But it’s still a bit strange for Kiryu to be so casual about such a significant matter, especially when Ichiban takes it seriously and believes him.
If Kiryu’s proposal comment was indeed a joke, it’s likely that his statement about “being around a few times” is also part of his humor. However, this news has generated considerable buzz among fans, who are eager to understand the truth behind Kiryu’s romantic experiences and whether he’s truly a virgin.
