•Amazon’s Like a Dragon works better as a mob drama than a Yakuza adaptation
55% Informative
Amazon Prime Video’s Like a Dragon: Yakuza is an adaptation of the video game series.
It stars Ryoma Takeuchi as Kazuma Kiryu , an orphaned youth who joins the Tojo yakuza clan with dreams of earning the title of Dragon of Dojima .
The show's unique approach to storytelling blends two different timelines together.
A lot of video game adaptations fail because they operate from the premise that being just like the game is entertainment enough.
But Like a Dragon is made better because it puts being good TV first over being a faithful adaptation.
It probably won't do for Yakuza what Fallout did for well, Fallout.
