Yakuza Kiwami/Movesets

Lorem ispum.

Playable Character(s)

Makoto Date

In Proving Grounds 10 of Climax Battles, Date is the playable character instead of Kiryu, but he has a humorously pathetic "unique" moveset in the files, which is a hybrid of the Common Goon and Drunkard movesets, but every attack follows up to a "Tired" animation borrowed from Yakuza 4's Ivan Ibrahimovic.

Command Set: E_YOP (Generic Drunk)

Fighter Commander Moveset: p_date_sp

Rush Combo

Rush Combo 3	Slow Rear Hook	Example	Example	Example	Reused from Common Goon	CFC Name: ATK_CMB_a_03 Move Name: E_CMB_a_03

Regular Attacks

Move Info	Move Summary	Hitbox Frames	Damage	Heat	Description	Move Details
Heavy Attack	Drunken Mid Kick	Example	Example	Example	Reused from Generic Drunk	CFC Name: Heavy_1 Move Name: E_YOP_ATK_kick
Running Attack	Drunken Running Shoulder Tackle	Example	Example	Example	Reused from Generic Drunk	CFC Name: RunAtk Move Name: E_YOP_ATK_run

All animations follow up to a CFC string called "Tire", which is simply just the animation "E_IWA_react_tire" (Crouched Tire into Quick Recovery), taken from Ivan Ibrahimovic.

However, this Tired animation can be skipped if no attack input is immediately pressed again, since the moveset's Rush Combo, Running and Heavy Attacks all have follow ups to the "Tire" string, triggered by pressing Square, Triangle or L1 immediately after attacking.

Story Bosses

Prisoner #1356

Uses a variant of the generic ninja moveset from Ryu Ga Gotoku: Ishin!, but with the downed attack from Majima's Mad Dog moveset.

Armed with dual forks in his tutorial fight at the prison, but uses dual knives in Substory 57: Behind the Assassin.

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Dragon (Unlocked and Activated for Tutorial Only)

Punk-Ass Abe

A Shimano Family member ordered to patrol Tenkaichi Street, who later gives Kiryu information on where to find Aoki.

Uses Young Ryuji Goda's moveset from Yakuza 0 (referred to as "Y0 Punk"), and is reused by several other minibosses.

Yuya has a QTE (h6122_yuya_finishblow) that is an odd hybrid of animations from Kiryu's Brawler Style Heat Actions:

h6122_yuya_finishblow

Essence of Steadfast Counter	For when Yuya gets up before the prompt shows, 1st Half
Essence of Finishing Blows	For Yuya's running haymaker that Kiryu must dodge with a button prompt, 2nd Half

Yuya also has two unique boss heat actions reused from his fight in the original Yakuza.

Yuya's Heat Actions

Internal HAct Name	Description	Note
h6120_yuuya_bodyslam	Bodyslam	Even if the player successfully escapes, the HAct can still activate. Likely because the player is still in a "grabbed" state during the escape animation's duration.
h6121_yuuya_german	German Suplex	Same as above.

As an NPC ally in the Chapter 2 fight against Takahashi and the Shimano Family, he uses E_KNK.

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Brawler

Takahashi

Fought inside Club Stardust with the Shimano Family.

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_SUDE_b

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Rush

Omi Alliance Man

Known as "Yasuda" on the health bar, despite Kiryu not knowing his actual name.

Fighter Command Moveset: E_TAM

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Beast

Futoshi Shimano

He uses the Mr. Shakedown moveset from Yakuza 0, but with significantly lowered damage levels compared to the original four Mr. Shakedowns in 0.

Fighter Commander Movesets:

E_KTA (Unarmed; Y0 Shakedown)

e_shimano_wpe (Chapter 12 Fight, Sword/Phase 1; Yakuza 5 Saejima Katana)

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Rush

Hiroshi Hayashi

Uses Shigeki Baba's moveset from Yakuza 5, with the addition of Keiji Shibusawa's Beast-style object combos and pickups from Yakuza 0, with unique blue attack trails instead of Shibusawa's original orange/yellow from Yakuza 0.

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_BAB

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Beast

Daniel Feldman

Reuses a duplicate of the Ricky Mask/E_MSK moveset (E_MSK_b), but with an added guard reversal taken from Masato Aizawa.

E_AIZ_guard_reverse - Two-Handed Knockback Guard Reversal

Also has four heat actions taken from his original fight in Yakuza.

D. Feldman's Heat Actions

h1011_kiryu_gswing_d	Essence of Giant Swing (Kiryu)
h6150_daniel_powerbomb	Daniel Feldman Powerbomb
h6151_daniel_brainbuster	Daniel Feldman Brainbuster Throw
h6153_daniel_elbow_f	Daniel Feldman Elbow Drop

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_MSK_b

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Rush

Gaowayan Pramuk

Has a unique heat action taken from his fight in the original Yakuza, but for whatever reason, is positioned so Pramuk is kicking Kiryu's face off a wall... in mid-air.

h5470_gao_kneekick - Pramuk’s Essence of Fence Smashing (in midair???)

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_KBX

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Beast

Gary Buster Holmes

Has a unique heat action taken from his fight in the original Yakuza if he successfully tackle-grabs Kiryu after getting his health down to a certain point, and is able to use the boss version of Kiryu's Essence of Wreckage if Kiryu is downed.

h6170_gary_throw_german - Gary Buster Holmes Suplex

h1624_mount_e - Enemy’s Essence of Wreckage

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_AIZ

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Brawler

Goro Majima

Majima is able to use the following heat actions as a boss:

Majima Heat Actions

Internal HAct Name	Description	Note
h1512_oi_kickover_utu_c_m	Essence of Finishing Kick	When Kiryu is face-down on the ground
h23230_kubiuchi	Essence of the Thug: Finisher	When Kiryu is face-up on the ground
h23220_shimeotoshi	Essence of the Thug: Choke-Out	Triggers immediately after Majima is behind Kiryu in Thug Style. Also happens when fought as Zombie Majima.
h6141_majima_sting_dosu*	Yakuza 1 Majima Throw & Stab	Triggers a few frames after Majima successfully hits Kiryu with his charged lunging stab in Mad Dog Style; Reused from the original Yakuza
h6142_majima_throw_trample*	Yakuza 1 Majima Throw & Stomp	Triggers a few frames after Majima uses his victory roll command throw in Thug Style; Reused from the original Yakuza

• Note: Only in story fights. Does not trigger in Majima Everywhere.

Fighter Commander Movesets:

p_majima_a (Thug)

p_majima_d2 (Breaker)

p_majima_b (Slugger)

p_majima_l (Mad Dog)

E_HANNYA and E_HANNYA_l (Thug and Mad Dog respectively; while disguised as Hannya-Man)

The Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action required to stop his healing phase correlates with his active style:

EoE Brawler when using Thug (Blue)

EoE Rush when using Breaker (Pink)

EoE Beast when using Slugger (Yellow)

EoE Dragon when using Mad Dog (Red)

However, in the main story, his healing phases call for different Essence of Extreme Style HACts. In his Chapter 5 fight, he uses Essence of Extreme Beast, while using Mad Dog for Phase 1 and Slugger for Phase 2.

In his Chapter 11 fight, he uses Essence of Extreme Rush instead of Dragon, likely since the developers assumed the player has not unlocked Essence of Extreme Dragon yet.

Takashi

Note: He fights with a regular pummeling bat in Chapter 6, but with a spiked bat in Ultimate Battle 1.

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_ARM_D_bat_d

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Brawler

B-KING

A watered down version of Tatsuo Shinada's unarmed moveset from Yakuza 5.

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_SIN

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Brawler

Regular Attacks

Move Info	Move Summary	Hitbox Frames	Damage	Heat	Description	Move Details
Slash Combo	Naginata Spin Slashes > Jumping Rear Crescent Kick > Spinning Side Slash	Example	Example	Example	Despite being a "combo", it is an individual move.	CFC Name: CMB_c_01 Move Name: E_LAU_I_CMB_c_01
Naginata Swing	Launching Full Body Naginata Swing	Example	Example	Example	Same as above.	CFC Name: CMB_d_01 Move Name: E_LAU_I_CMB_d_01
Ground Smash	Jumping Naginata Ground Smash	Example	Example	Example	Also doubles as a downed attack. Lau's AI will use this attack at least twice if you're downed.	CFC Name: ATK_jump Move Name: E_LAU_I_ATK_jump
Cartwheeling Thrust	Jumping Cartwheel into Crouching Thrust	Example	Example	Example	Example	CFC Name: ATK_run_heavy Move Name: E_LAU_I_ATK_run_heavy
Guard Reversal?	Naginata Twirling	Example	Example	Example	Not in E_LAU_I itself, but it is his default guard animation in his command set E_LAU_I, within ActionSet.cas. Technically a guard reversal.	CFC Name: None, Default Guarding Animation Move Name: E_LAU_I_guard_st, E_LAU_I_guard_lp, E_LAU_I_guard_en
Alternate Guard Reversal	Naginata Push to Horizontal Slash Guard Reversal	Example	Example	Example	Seemingly unused since Lau's guard reversal is just the above animation(s) in-game. "GuardReaction" in the moveset does not follow up to anything.	CFC Name: None Move Name: E_LAU_I_guard_reverse
Taunt	Overhead Naginata Twirling	Example	Example	Example	Basic taunt.	CFC Name: react_provoke Move Name: E_LAU_I_react_provoke

In Phase 1, Lau can perform a naginata throw heat action (h6161_liu_throw_turiag) almost immediately after Kiryu is in a stun state from his 3rd naginata Rush Combo B attack (E_LAU_I_CMB_b_03 - Rear Side Kick).

Dual Swords/Phase 2

His dual swords moveset is a hybrid reuse of Shun Akiyama's Kali Sticks moveset from Yakuza 4 and the generic player kali sticks moveset.

He transitions into this phase using a cutscene HAct in which a Snake Flower Triad member tosses two Chinese broadswords to Lau from above.

Unarmed/Phase 3

Lau gets significantly more difficult in his Unarmed phase to fight as his AI will become more aggressively faster, with no room for the player to breathe and fight back, littered with attacks with stun properties.

In Phase 3, Lau has a "unique" heat action (h6163_liu_throw_kick), if Kiryu is stunned during this phase. This heat action reuses the animation of Naoki Katsuya's special sync attack from Yakuza 5, E_KAT_SYNC_CMB_sp/E_KAT_SYNC1_CMB_sp [Lead Uppercut → Rear Uppercut → Handplant Spinning Rear Heel Kick → Rear Jump Full Crescent Kick], but in HAct format with Lau performing it (and even ends the attack in Katsuya's original stance rather than his own).

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Brawler

Kazuto Arase

Fighter Command Moveset: E_WPK

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Beast

Ishikawa

Former Dojima Family Member armed with a pistol, fought at the pier with Majima.

Uses the same AI as Hunter Oya in the coliseum.

Fighter Command Moveset: E_KAN

Murase

A member of the Omi Alliance, before Kyohei Jingu's fight in Chapter 13.

Uses the Y0 Punk Miniboss moveset and AI (Read: Punk Ass Abe).

Fighter Commander Moveset: E_KNK_b

Kyohei Jingu

Only fought at the helipad of the Millenium Tower with two MIA Colonels.

However, it is possible to damage him with guns at the beginning area of the fight, but his health will be stuck at 1 before the cutscene of him fleeing in a helicopter triggers and disappears until the player reaches the helipad.

Fighter Command Moveset: E_ARM_Y_type_b

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Brawler

MIA Colonels

Both colonels accompanying Jingu have two phases.

Phase 1: Pistols (using the generic MIA moveset; Andre Richardson unarmed but with a pistol)

Phase 2: Combat Knives (using a watered down Munakata Bodyguard moveset from Yakuza 4).

The transition to Phase 2 is a cutscene HAct. (h6216_mia_revive)

The MIA Colonels, should Jingu still be alive in the former's Phase 2, have a unique QTE (h6215_mia_kick_comb).

Fighter Command Movesets:

E_RIC_b (Assumedly for Phase 1; Pistols)

E_MIA_b (Phase 2; Combat Knives)

Akira Nishikiyama

Nishikiyama uses his moveset from Yakuza 0 once more, but with the addition of a reused rush combo and one basic attack from Osamu Kashiwagi in Yakuza 0 (whose moveset, by extension, is a copy of Joji Kazama from Yakuza 3 with a unique stance and other moves).

Nishikiyama also has several unused moves taken from other characters, but the M-NSK robot boss in the Minamida Grand Prix of Like a Dragon Gaiden is fully able to use these.

Fighter Command Moveset: E_NSK

Essence of Extreme Style Heat Action: Dragon

Optional

Jo Amon

Fights just like he did in Yakuza 0, but his guard reversal now throws grenades instead of blades. Speed and damage increases proportionally as his health decreases.

Fighter Command Movesets: E_AMON_M (Komaki Dragon Clone/Phase 1), E_AMON_B (Majima Mad Dog Clone/Phase 2)

Allies

Kazuki

Kazuki, as an ally in Chapter 2 against Takahashi and the Shimano Family, uses Akira Nishikiyama's expanded ally moveset and AI from Yakuza 0 Chapter 14 to the Finale, which is simply the Generic Boxing enemy moveset with added command grabs and throws from Daigo Dojima.

However, he lacks the ability to do the unique tag team heat action Kiryu and Nishiki have in Yakuza 0.
