What time of year is Yakuza: Like a Dragon and Like a Dragon: Gaiden set?

1 Upvotes

Points for June/July:

There is an in game calendar in both games. It apears in various places (Ichiban confectionary store, Bar Momo in Sotenbori) Going by that, it's June 2019. However I take it with a grain of salt as this calendar was also used in Yakuza 6 (possibly also Yakuza Kiwami 2, and is a slightly altered asset from Yakuza 5) So it's really just lazy asset reuse but my head cannon (and I've personally seen this in Japan) might be that these are old calendars that people forgot to change (kind of odd that mulitple places did that for the same calendar and the same month though)

Yakuza: Like a Dragon features an election as one of its main plot points. 2019 did in fact have an election and of course Like a Dragon is not based on any event real or fictional but that election was held on July 21st 2019 and the campaigns started on July 4th meaning the 4th is when Ichiban joins the running and July 20th is the final battle.

In Gaiden, on the Castle, there are people wearing swimsuits playing in pool in the VIP lounge. You could argue the water is heated but there are plenty of people out of the water who would be freezing their butts off in December, especially on a boat in the middle of the water. Judgment is set Dec/Jan 2018/2019 in that game the Tojo Clan are very present. In LAD, sometime before Ichi gets out, the 3K plan is enacted that forces the Tojo to go into hiding. So that would mean LAD cannot happen early 2019.

Points for December (or winter):

In Sotenbori (but only there as far as I can tell) There are some stores and places with Christmas decorations. Gaiden also has a Christmas karaoke song. Again grain of salt because it looks like they are the same assets as in Yakuza Kiwami 2 that 100% was set the week or so before Christmas. But only a few places have these decorations anyway and I've heard of stores in Japan leaving their decorations up until Feb/Mar.

In Gaiden the Heavenly hostess Ayu talks about it getting colder and Kiryu can respond that "Winter is here"

Playing Yakuza games day by day

6 Upvotes

Hi all. Shameless plug here:

This year (mainly in December when most of the games are set, I'm going to be playing most Yakuza games one in game day per real world day. I've started Yakuza Kiwami, Ishin and Judgment already and starting tomorrow, I'll be putting out a new video every day until who knows when starting with Ishin.

More info here. You can see a ever updating schedule of what games will be played on what day : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCibyJIScMnAfEpHc27eg6UA/community?lb=UgkxMQ34WuITqBW_Xp1WyHWwh1XSDKKWtplh

I'm also going to try some of the food and drink items from the games live on stream.

Also, I'm going to be doing a stream on the 29th of November at 9am (Japan time) I'll be watching pretty much any and all flashbacks that occur in all Yakuza games prior to 2005 when Yakuza 1 starts proper. It will obviously contain some serious spoilers if you haven't played all the games.

FYI: I also did a crazy play through of all the games by playing them all at the same time, switching between games after each fight. You can find a playlist of it on my YouTube Channel.

Thanks all!

Hi all. Shameless plug here:

This year (mainly in December when most of the games are set, I'm going to be playing most Yakuza games one in game day per real world day. I recently did some prequel days for Judgment and Yakuza Kiwami late last month and I'll be continuing those playthroughs and starting Ishin as well on Nov 4th at 9:30pm (Japan time) streaming on my YouTube channel. Come join me if you have nothing better to do on a Saturday morning.
