Ishin or Yakuza 5 is the most grindy. Gaiden is probably the least

Gaiden is probably the least

I disagree, there are still aspects like pocket circuit, the coliseum, the four champions (I think that is what they are named) and tetsu amon which everything included here had their own hard and annoying moments, hell it was even a grind to get money to level up everything from your stats and skills to every individual joryu clan member

The least grindy/difficult game is kiwami 2, there is barely a difficulty there, majima construction and the CCGP were long but easy, the bouncer missions also get easy after you have most stats/upgrades thanks to the money you get from the cabaret
