Yakuza 5 is fun 1 

An absolute pleasure collaborating with the sock king himself! 👑❤‍🔥 JFJ is a true master in the making, and what a vibrant, hilarious, and wholesome community.

"Hey JFJ during the animation one of the fingers clips at-" *head instantly implodes due to JFJs telepathic abilities*

IT’S…. IT’S THE MAIN CHARACTER. JFJ HAS RETURNED TO THE YAKUZA MAN.

I love how J got so into his Uchiha joke he completely missed the Komaki thing first go around lmao

Honestly, stop with being sorry for taking a break from things you no longer enjoy or have grown tired of, no matter the circumstance. We are here, watching you do your usual thing and stuck around over the years because we enjoy your brand of humor and personality, whatever game you play is just the cherry on top. Keep following what makes you happy and you'll always deliver, be it Animations, passion projects or just hanging out. You radiate the greatest positive energy when you are feeling yourself, J, so don't be afraid of being that lovable, unhinged, at times perhaps deranged, honest self of yours we have come to adore and feeling welcomed by, anytime you stream or upload something new. Don't overwork yourself and keep that proud, Texan chin held high! (I also sincerely apologize for being cheesy beyond reason, I am really damn tired.)

Dawg you have no idea how hard I was laughing when you caught that "tuna" I was at the edge of puking from laughter, even my mom laughed at the situation. And she doesn't know english! I guess it's official, John Yakuza is back in town

13:19 I feel that, lol

5:16 dude in the background is really saying "alright buddy, no more mister nice guy."

absolutely adore JFJ animations they're getting so much better and well worth the wait

16:01 has to be one of the most painful heat actions Kiryu has done.

I respect the gaslighting text edits in the speech boxes, the edits actually are pretty good to make them look natural, like the thugshaker one

"Take 5 Five hour energies and enter the forbidden hour"

i love in when Yakuzer John says to his enemies "Im going to kiryu". Thats my favorite part

I loved how the animation turned out J, it looks stellar!

I love how JFJ’s animations are getting better and better. You did really good with this one J.

Damn bro, you've gotten really good at animation! I remember when you started adding animation to your videos, and you've just kept getting better in such a short time! Keep at it, king; you're doing great.

HIM?!?!!!! THE MYTH THE MAN THE LEGEND!!!!! ITS THE SOCK-MAN!!

GASPED when I got this in my recommendation. Your Yakuza series became a nostalgia to me because I binge all of them from early 2023 until the very end.

its absolutely amazing to see how far youve come with animating Jay.

The man returns, also seeing the full version after watching the work you did made it worth it

These openings are so good and they just get better with each vid, I love them so much

Love to see the animations getting better and better

With Yakuza 8 over the horizon, and you Yakuzaposting again, you made my day. I hope you enjoy the rest of the series!

exemplary work on the animation J, please never stop animating i love seeing your improvements

Your animations are getting better and better! Keep up the great content

The animations keep getting better and better keep it up you’re doing awesome

That animation was amazing, I had to rewatch it a few times before even starting the video lmao

So glad to see you back at it again J, I found your channel through your yakuza playthroughs so seeing you get back at it puts a big dumb smile on my face

Yay, my favorite rubber bullets franchise is back on the jfj menu!!

The animation looks incredible J, also happy to see you are enjoying yakuza again

honestly missed the Yakuza videos, so happy to see them back

Look how far J gone with his animation skills Love to see J grow Awesome animation

Glad you're enjoying some Yakuza again, keep up the amazing work king

OMG love the opening animation!

Glad to hear that you're back to the series, bud! Hope you'll enjoy this and next parts) P.s. also recommend Kurohyou (yakuza spin-off in two parts that recently got a fan English patch), which, by the combat system, is something between beat-em-up and fighting.

Great animations at the start! And such a fun series! I am a bit biased to it since the whole series had a great impact on me. I even made a video how Yakuza saved my life. I was in a very bad state, but Kiryu's resolve and determination helped me to move forward. Hope you'll have fun with the rest of the series🤗

man, I love this saga and I also love how you react to everything that happens (I think you are one of the most expressive youtubers I have met) but it is good that you take your time to finish the saga, and especially this one, since it is It's true that it has quite a few flaws in the story, but it's really worth it, especially the ending. and if you continue with the saga, if you want you can go directly to judgment since it would be a very good change of pace due to the completely new story and the mechanics that this installment implements. There are going to be some very good moments in the following videos.

I never expected the value select and jfj collab. Worlds colliding

Happy to see these yakuza videos again

That JFJ logo is great, and the video makes me Yakuming

You're getting really good at these animations, J'

Finally. I've been waiting for this for years.

my first yakuza entry experience and im glad it was.

JFJ's animations are getting really good damn, soon a Blender master

Video's not even out yet but that thumbnail looks absolutely amazing.

The Metalocalypse censor? Yes please.

Welcome back to the Yakuza, J. And take your time as much as you want. Savor every moment

That intro was amazing getting getting with each on jfj

I’m ready to watch this 7 hours from now :)

Immediately recognized ValueSelect, so awesome to hear him here!

Seeing this makes me wanna man up and continue my legend playthrough of this game.

So glad I saw that animation live...

Ive been waiting for thissss, yakuza 5 is one of my favorite games in the franchise, I thought you werent gonna play it

from pocket racing to street racing the era of yakuza continues on

Been fiending for more Yakuza. This does mean that now I have to play the next couple yakuzas so I can be ahead of you and not get spoiled by your videos, internet funny man. Hope you're happy with yourself.

Been waiting for this

amazing intro and even better video

I'm glad you decided to give Yakuza 5 another chance, J

Perfect comedic timing with all those farts at the start. G fuel ad pops up right as its going on...

Someone says it on every video but your animations are constantly improving

holy fuck I can't believe it finally

You're good J. People tend to ruin EVERYTHING. Sometimes its good to take breaks from the things you love. We love you J, keep up the great work.

YES HE'S CONTINUING I COULD CRY

J wondering how an UMBRELLA that can open up is able to put up such a big fight against being pulled through water is the highlight of the fishing insanity.

That animation was so good

Awsome video J well done ❤

holy shit the main character's back

J’s animation skills have gotten really good, proud of em

The thumbnail goes so hard

The yakuza king has returned to his throne! Its the MaIn ChArAcTeR!

THE SOCK KING HAS RETURN TO ONCE AGAIN RULE THE STREETS OF KAMUROCHO

Oh hell yeah, it's Yakoozering time once again

King intro animation👌

Hey J! I love the animation so much! It's very impressive to see how much you've improved! Can I ask why you don't put out the animation as a standalone video? Perhaps it could get more recognition :) I started blender a bit before you but the determination you put in made you surpass me by quite a lot!

This was a great video. Idk what you got spoiled on, but it’s good that you’ve been streaming 5 more. Hopefully the spoiler won’t hold you back from enjoying the stories these games have.

Love watching your stuff J but I gotta say that grinding on the pavement move is a big trigger for phantom pain for me and I seems like you really like it lol

I still remember when I got to the stream and J just had started the karaoke song, never felt so rick rolled in my life. 😅

And so he returns :)

the jfj/vs collab goes absolutely fucking bananas

Great video 👍

finally its here!

No shit I literally just started yakuza 5 yesterday and now im seeing this video 😂😂😂

Keep It up jfj we love you

I remember a longgggggg time ago when I made a super cringe comment on a Yakuza video and damn I regret it, but nonetheless awesome video as always mr funny sock man, you certainly made me laugh a ton this Great vid XD

Remember to unlock machine gun when playing as Haruka

I heard that you were bummed about the lacklustre numbers on the video, and I just wanted to leave a comment saying I would watch it if I wasn’t worried about spoilers because I like to watch every video you put out. However, I did send this to some friends who have played yakuza and might enjoy it. Keep up the good work man!

I never thought I’d see Kurtis hold a GameCube controller

trick to the racing: do the boost before you come up on the heat action at the end of the lap, then do the heat action to instantly overcome your enemy, you can save up the heat actions for later in the race + You can honk your horn in the normal taxi to make civilians speed up.

that intro was beautiful

The Return of the Sock

YEEEEESSS IM SO FUCKING HYPED

YO IS THAT KAZUMA KIRY- *gets head shredded by sidewalk*

I was there for the stream and the dog still kills me

BRO, *I JUST STARTED YAKUZA 5 YESTERDAY MYSELF!!* HOW DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING TO ME?!?!?! (A lot of things I do, I see my favorite content creators talk about the next day.)

More of the greatest game series ever made 🥃🥃

To be fair I can confirm dauntless driving heat action works irl Cuz my school bus driver did it While we were in the bus To get around a dump truck

Honestly can't wait till you get to Yakuza 6 and after, this is where it starts picking up again in my opinion

Thats rad.

Who's here still remember that Tuna that J have beef with, when he's fishing at the beach?

I somehow feel that he will 100% the hunting mingame no matter how long it takes
