Amazon’s New Like A Dragon Show Is Being Made By People Who Really Get The Games

Like a Dragon: Yakuza’s very own Kiryu explains how the show adapts the games’ best tenets

Following its stellar adaptation of Fallout earlier this year, Amazon’s eyes are now set on translating the popular video game series Like a Dragon this fall. Ahead of the release of Amazon’s adaptation, which straddles the line with the title Like a Dragon: Yakuza , lead actor Ryoma Takeuchi —portraying none other than the Dragon of Dojima, Kazuma Kiryu —has discussed some of the ways in which he and the show will honor the series while charting their own paths.

The first Like a Dragon game follows Kiryu during two distinct periods of his life, first in the 90s and then after his release from a decade-long stint in prison in 2005, so it’s only natural that he should come across as a different combatant and person depending on the era. To that extent, Takeuchi will also look and sound different depending on the time certain scenes take place.
