A small revision to quickly bring the verse as up to date as possible before Kiwami 3 comes out, so we can maybe gain momentum for future CRTs. Credit to this guy (and a few others). A majority of the scans were taken from a doc he sent in that one discord server lol.
Gotta start off with Kiryu. Here's the new profile for him, not that there’s much to change- the old one already has tons of text on it. It’s just lacking scans and other stuff from newer games. But to be a bit more specific:
There’s also some Dead Souls stuff included. And to be clear, Dead Souls is canon, kind of, given Kiryu’s statements that "everything was just so vivid" and that it was a "memory from an alternate universe" along with the fact that Dead Souls still takes place after Yakuza 4. So I think it’s probably fine to use some material from it for mainline Kiryu, at least for abilities that are innate to him (like shooting skills and the like).
Ichiban's Subjective Reality and sub abilities addition
Despite being claimed as "imaginary", Ichiban’s perception has been shown to affect the real world to some extent, as there are objects visible during his fights that also exist in reality, Ex: Ichiban receives a golden squid tentacle as a reward after defeating the Game Master, a giant golden squid, even though everyone else confirms the entire event was just a dream sort of way. There’s also the fact that
Despite being claimed as "imaginary", Ichiban’s perception has been shown to affect the real world to some extent, as it is "infectious" to Kiryu. Despite lacking Ichiban’s JRPG mindset and is clearly not delusional, he still explicitly experiences combat through this same kind of vision, describing it as "seeing what a hero would see"
There are also some hax that come from the thing above. Some of them are already on Ichiban’s pfp, so this is kind of just a rewording I guess:
Heat abilities addition/reword
Heat grants the following abilities: Aura, Energy Manipulation, Chi Manipulation, Statistics Amplification, Rage Power & Healing (Heat is an energy/aura connected to one’s body, mind, willpower, soul and chi. It can be used to enhance the body’s limits, making the user stronger, faster, and more durable, as well as allowing them to heal mid-fight. One can also determine someone’s power level through Heat’s aura)
For bosses that didn’t show healing, we should just slap a Likely/Possibly on it instead of completely disregarding it, since Heat seems to be a power system that people in Yakuza generally have, considering there’s an equipment that takes Heat from any opponent.
Applies to everyone except this bear.
Abilities addition for Majima
Gotta start off with Kiryu. Here's the new profile for him, not that there’s much to change- the old one already has tons of text on it. It’s just lacking scans and other stuff from newer games. But to be a bit more specific:
- Revamped/tweaked his PnA, Intelligence, and Notable Techniques sections, mainly the first two. Removed Techniques Without Heat and some others, as they were a bit redundant.
- Added bullet points for PnA because a lot of people can’t handle walls of text (skill issue)
- Tried to add as many scans as possible.
- Quite a lot of new abilities and resistances were added, along with new tabbers for Gaiden and IW and all that. Some notable ones include Analytical Prediction, Subjective Reality, or additional Heat abilities. A few of these will also apply to other characters, which I’ll mention later below.
- Updated his statistics. A 2x AP and SS with Dragon Spirit and Extreme Heat Mode, based on the fact that Brawler Style can counter opponents dealing twice the damage, and Extreme Heat Mode should be at least within that amplification range. Hypersonic+ with Heat, as with the current speed scaling values, any noticeable speed amp should be more than enough to reach the baseline of the next tier at that point.

There are also some hax that come from the thing above. Some of them are already on Ichiban’s pfp, so this is kind of just a rewording I guess:
- Status Effect Inducement (Burn, Cold, Paralyze, Stun, Poison, Drunk, Bleed, Sleep, Fear, Charm, Brainwash, Rage, Silence, Blind and Curse [List of Status Effects])
- Summoning, Healing, Statistics Amplification, Statistics Reduction & Energy Projection via smartphone (Can summon Poundmates to assist in battle by healing, recovering MP, buffing party members, or attacking and debuffing enemies. Can also summon a satellite to fire a destructive energy beam)

Abilities addition for Majima
- Superhuman Precision (Able to precisely catch a katana with his teeth and strike it at the hilt to launch it toward targets. Can throw a knife upward from behind his back and kick it at foes, and can even do so while trading blows with others. Is also able to punch his knife, bouncing it off walls and thin poles back into his hand, and easily deflect a barrage of bullets aimed at him and his allies)
- Kiryu should have this as well, as he can perform similar feats.
- Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii tabber
- Minor Cloth Manipulation (Can change his outfit while switching fighting styles)
- Restricted Flight (Can suspend himself in the air to chain his combos)
- Attack Reflection (With perfect blocks and parries)
- Damage Boost (With flintlock)
- Summoning (When Majima has a full Madness gauge and is using the Sea Dog style, he can use the Dark Instruments to summon Dark Gods to assist him. Dark God of the Earth summons a giant ape that fights with powerful melee attacks. Dark God of the Waves summons a group of sharks from underground to attack, the more enemies there are, the more sharks will appear. Dark God of the Deep summons a pack of jellyfish that heal Majima and his allies while paralyzing nearby enemies through electricity. Dark God of the Skies summons a parrot that creates whirlwinds toward foes)
- Through Goromaru: Explosion Manipulation, Fire Manipulation, Ice Manipulation, Poison Manipulation, Energy Projection & Danmaku (Can use a variety of machine guns, cannons, and flamethrowers [List of Ship Upgrades])
- Going off the current justifications. And here are the regeneration type requirements. This lines up with characters being stabbed in the abdomen multiple times, deep stabs even, and still healed without scars. That's Mid-Low me thinks.
- Along with Himura, Saejima can create an imaginary recreation of Sapporo. Activities done there can also have permanent, tangible effects on the real world, such as him becoming stronger after beating up thugs or having his karaoke high score saved, just like when doing activities in the actual cities.
- Akiyama can create a mental image of Hana by reminiscing about her, allowing him to complete the substories, noting that she had already left Sky Finance at this point and only returns at the end of Yakuza 4.
- The Amons have consistently grown stronger throughout the series, as stated by Kiryu in Yakuza 5, as well as evidenced by Jo slaughtering all the opponents he has fought in IF-7, which should include previous versions of Kiryu, and that he can keep up with Kiryu’s growth, with Jo himself admitting that he can build on his experiences to make himself stronger at an almost preternatural rate.
- Several Meters up to Tens of Meters via multiple Extracts
- Is able to perceive and even talk with ghosts, with Sugiura also able to hear them.
- Since when does using the environment count as your own abilities lmao, can’t make this shit up.
