It seems that I can relate quite a bit to the brand new live-action actor behind Kazuma Kiryu, as he is ready to play the Yakuza collection till he has extra time, too.
Look, you do not have to promote me on them – I do know I will love the Yakuza video games. Each single factor I’ve seen from them I am in love with, to be completely sincere, and I’ve even performed a piece of Yakuza 0, however, you realize… I am an grownup! With a job! This one, proper right here, which not solely requires me to play a lot of completely different video games, however typically TV exhibits and flicks too, and Yakuza video games are lengthy. And there is a entire bunch of them now! Fortunately, I am not alone in that, as Ryoma Takeuchi, the actor behind Kiryu within the not too long ago launched (and fairly alright) Like a Dragon: Yakuza collection has shared he is ready to play them till he has time to take action.
In an interview with GamesRadar, when requested about whether or not he is fascinated by taking part in the video games having now taken half within the collection, he responded, “Sure, truly I do have a powerful feeling in direction of that. I actually need to play the sport, but when solely I may very well be given a break to take action. What I imply is that I actually like taking part in video video games, but when I begin taking part in it I have to play the entire recreation. So, I want to remain in entrance of the tv display screen for an extended, very long time.
“I’ve so many issues which might be ready for me to do and attain in entrance of me,” Takeuchi continued. “So, that is the place I’m proper now. However I sit up for taking part in the video games.” I really feel the identical manner, really. Takeuchi shared his ideas on taking part in a longtime character like Kiryu earlier this 12 months, particularly within the context of not having performed the video games actually, and he made some very affordable and respectable factors about his strategy to the job.
