So some new gameplay came out for Like a Dragon 8, and in the gameplay it showed Judgement being a playable song for the first time since Yakuza 0, with Ichiban singing it along with Kiryu. This got me thinking a lot, so I want to share my thoughts.
So Kiryu hasn’t sung this song since like what, the 80’s? That’s a long damn time, especially considering Judgement is his canonical favorite song. So why hasn’t he sang it in so long? Well, ignoring gameplay reasons obviously, an answer could be that he always sung that song with Nishiki by his side, and thus it felt wrong and empty to sing it without him.
Well, that was, until he met Ichi.
It’s a well known fact that Ichiban’s japanese voice actor is actually also Nishiki’s voice actor, a sorta passing the torch kinda thing. Something I believe (and is kinda implied ingame) is that Ichiban reminds Kiryu of his younger self, while also reminding him of Nishiki, in a way. Just something about Kiryu seeing Ichi as the future of the yakuza (as said in the trailer) is so heartwarming to me.
But what does this have to do with Judgement? Well, the fact that Kiryu hadn’t sung this song in nearly 40 years, but then decided to do a duet alongside Ichi is just kinda heartwrenching in a way. I have a headcanon that Ichi saw the song on the list of karaoke songs, and asked Kiryu if he heard of it, in which Kiryu had a sort of flashback. It’s like he remembered Nishiki asking the exact same thing all those years ago, and something Ichi reminding him of it made him wanna sing it again with him.
Something I also find just absolutely heartbreaking is that with the recent reveal of Kiryu having cancer, it’s very possible that this could be his very last game The ONLY other time you could sing Judgement was in Kiryu’s canonical very first game, all the way back in the 80’s with Yakuza 0. The fact that Kiryu’s journey is starting and possibly ending with his favorite song makes me feel a lot of things.

“Pervert”
Fyodor x Fem! Reader
DOA kidnaps reader-masturbation, noncon voyuerism, Fyodor is possessive, literally don’t know what else to tag
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fyodor sat at his computer watching as you were dragged kicking and screaming back to your room with it being the third time you tried to escape this week. He was disappointed in your refusal to give up and accept the new conditions you lived in; and it wasn’t like you didn’t live in splendor, as the Decay of Angels has given you only the best per you being his newest toy. He just couldn’t understand why you didn’t do as you were told. He let out a tortured sigh, continually in this cycle of wondering why you couldn’t just be content with your new life. Immediately after you were thrust back into your room and the door was locked, he watched in surprise as you smoothed down your hair and walked to the bathroom to take a shower. Obviously he had cameras there too, because you couldn’t be trusted to be on your own. Watching you undress and step into the running water without realizing that you were being watched was so degrading that Fyodor felt disgusted with himself as he released himself from the confines of his pants, his dick springing free.
Grunting, he stroked himself roughly, watching as you washed yourself, taking away all the feeling from having been manhandled earlier, discarding all impurities. Fondling his tip that was beaded with precum, he was almost at his release when you were conditioning your hair. It was so perverted, so creepy what his actions were that as he cummed, the thick ropes of white spilling all over his hand, he got up and went to go wash himself off.
Angrily he muttered under his breath, “This filthiness goes against the will of God.” At the same time he said this, you walked out into the hallway, bumping into him. Confused, you looked up at him, but without a word he turned around and walked the other way. He could only assume with how distant he was towards you, that you assumed he had no wanting towards you the same way the other members of the DOA did.
Oh how wrong you were.
Later on, walking into the common area for the DOA to convene within the sky casino, Fyodor had taken a shower to rid himself of the vile sin he committed. However, seeing Nikolai entertain you with clownish tricks, and Sigma lay his head onto your shoulder, he was struck by a possessiveness that he didn’t know he had. Again, choosing to ignore you in light of this, he walked over to the window to ponder these new feelings. Continually hearing Nikolai and Sigma pepper you with attention and affection despite knowing how many times you had tried to escape from their hold was irritating; with their chosen ignorance of your actions. Sigma believed you were something to be cherished, and Nikolai decided that it was he who should break you through his insanity.
Fyodor held neither of these sentiments, though watching you run around to manipulate Sigma into letting you go, and dealing your life with Nikolai’s psychopathy was somewhat amusing, even though it seemed like you were forgetting who you belonged to.
He decided that it would be better for him to remind you.
Every now and then he would make small conversation with you, asking about music you enjoyed, and books he reccomended to you. From how you decided to start following him whenever he went out of the casino, the plot he hatched seemed to be working. Of course, he made sure you couldn’t escape while he was gone, locking all the passageways and exits. Then, one day when he was sure that you wouldn’t think much of him “forgetting” to lock one of the exits, he walked out and waited for your sure getaway.
Seeing you wander outside, looking triumphant, he watched as you dimwittedly jumped for joy. He almost felt bad when he stepped behind you and covered your hand with his mouth, restraining you.
“Dear, you didn’t think I would actually forget to conveniently keep an exit unlocked?” He sneered, your horrified expression bringing him unmatched pleasure.
“I…I thought you didn’t want me the same way those two do. I thought you would be alright with me going.” You quietly muttered.
Placatingly, Fyodor smiled and said, “I don’t need to want you the way they do. You’re already mine.”
