Yakuza Zero Real Life Comparison - Sotenbori 

Can’t believe they made yakuza 0 into a real thing

Is there an fighting arena underneath the water.

How’d you manage to not get caught by Mr. Shakedown while you were making this video?

I wanna go on that bridge someday and sing my heart out of 24 Hour Cinderella awkwardly on the street.

0:49 dude that's cool... wait, what?

Me sprinting around in sotenbori in the game to get to a destination quicker but the NPC’s aren’t even looking at me or surprised meanwhile in irl…….. 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

great video! I went to the real-life location a long time ago with my family on a tour, and even ate at that dragon-ramen shop. but I barely remember Japan though, and would love to check these places out again once i've finished my run of Y0

Damn he didn't show what was in the place of the Grand.

yooooo they made yakuza into a real thing lmao

龍が如くに登場する道頓堀は、龍が如く2発売当時を再現しています。

@1:22 is homie giving out free hugs to japanese girls?

The only place i can explore wit out google map

I think it would be the Best with Yakuza 7 now Cause its in either 2019 or 2020 i think

this is actually just a teaser for Yakuza Kiwami 0

1:46 is this the Leon S. Kennedy face actor in the remake? (He is indeed a model in japan)

wait wtf is there a svastika on the map? xD

2:06 lol the orange cone is right there

2:26 RUN

wow they made Sotenbori from yakuza 0 in real life

man, this makes me appreciates yakuza map even more. like most of the time we're just sprinting all over the place doing substories and main quests. but this video kinda makes me appreciates the team who made it based off real location

Where is the footage of real life Majima running around in the streets?

Yakuza games have proven that you dont need large maps to make your game interesting. Its the quality of the map that matters. Later Assassins' Creed titles may have the whole city of London, Paris, or ancient Egypt and Greece but it lacks the lived in feel that the Yakuza games have. Walking around in Sotenbori and Kamurocho in Yakuza 0 and Kiwami 2 makes me feel as if I am having a night out exploring the city. This is especially heartfelt during the pandemic when people hardly ever goes out.

This looks like ALOT in yakuza kiwami 2 infact

You should compare it with Kiwami 2(there's a demo of Sotonbori in the Japanese Playstation store). It's even better

Where is Mr Libido

Is Club Sunshine there?

The rest of the Don Quixote street actually is bustling at night with hostess clubs and bars.

What about the Grand and Odyssey?

Man it's super cool that in Yakuza Kiwami 2 they updated the map so the footpath that runs along the water becomes more time accurate.

is the takoyaki still piping hot?

Wow cool they made Sotenbori from the game into a real-life city!

dude yakuza teaches you to be able to navigate kamurocho and sotenbori by heart

I remember going to dotenbori when i was in japan a few years back for school with my host family. I played yakuza 0 after going and i remember the giant crab and the running man but i had no idea the roads were flipped lmao. good video non the less

Where's the grand cabaret?

great video well edited. i would like it if you made on Fukuoka or one of the other cities in the yakuza series

Disliked cos no massage parlour

I just wanna know have you got granny candy

HOLY SHET DUDE SOTENBORI

What a wonderfully chill and well presented video. Thank you for making this. I was really curious to see how it matched with its real life equivalent 🥰

nice

majima : that place is a prison

When I was in Osaka, I stayed in the Namba area (not sure if I spelled that right) just a couple blocks from the Dotonburi area you show in this video. I was amazed how much this area looked like the game.

You could use Like a Dragon Gaiden to compare these now.

So imagined there is actual people breakdancing on the bridge...

Where is bed of styx

Well the story takes place at the 80's so some stores might have switched locations like Don Quijote which now sits close to the river.

why in the game, sotenbury so dirty with many garbage on street?

Oh my god Yakuza 0 was such a popular game they made kamurocho and sotembori into a real place

Did you see an guy in a grey suit tossing some punks into the river?

2:27 I can see that piece of shit in the background

What about area around Club Sunshine?

It's dotonbori in Osaka

why are there swastikas on the map

Just play kiwami 2 it also has sotenbori and it’s updated

Where’s the Cabaret Grand?

i’ve been to dotonbori before playing yakuza 0 so i was blown away seeing it

1988 vs 2006 vs 2012

Its more accurate in yakuza 5 for the real life sotenbori.

The Glico Man sign has been there since 1935 (updated several times since then), so it's more likely an issue of not having the rights to use it instead of it not being there in the 1980s.

Hey they made sotenbori a real thing

One thing that I also noticed was the clown with the drum, Kuidaore. He’s not too far from the crab. When I saw that in game, I was like damn that’s real.

3:30 oh lawd he coming

Cool video! Any chance of some updates for Yakuza 6 or Kiwami 2?

Are there really bikers and yakuza goons starting fights with anyone who looks at them funny?

You lucky you didnt encounter mr shakedown

i think you shouldve used 5 to compare since it is set in 2011 and so it would be more similar

sad because I cant go to maharaja and dance to koi no disco queen in real life :(

I traveled there once, a big guy came and took all of my money, he was tough.

Come back and review yakuza 5/6 maps 🙏🏻

What’s interesting is. There is a Family Mart in each corner in real life.

In Kiwami 2 the Don Quijote has a ferris wheel built into the building. Is there a Don Quijote with an amusement park ride builtin else where in Japan?

Good lord those streets are PACKED

Where's the underground arena

* cough cough* KIRYU-CHAN

where majima at doe

Wouldn't Yakuza 5 or 6 be a better comparison?

Where are the Bookers?

WHERE IS THE 3 METER GUY THOUGH

2:27 Is Raiden in Yakuza Zero?

really weirdly just remembered your channel lol. must have watched your vlogs like 5 or 6 years ago :o

Did u get a chance to play Yakuza 6?

Great video! ^_^

Alright lala?
