This chapter introduces you to the new seaside town of Onomichi Jingaicho, a quieter, more traditional location compared to Kamurocho, but one with its own deeply rooted yakuza conflicts. The main goal is to find out why Haruka was in Onomichi.
👥 Key Characters Introduced
Takaaki Matsunaga: A young member of the Hirose Family.
Tsuyoshi Nagumo: The Hirose Family Captain and main antagonist of the chapter (initially).
Toru Hirose: Patriarch of the Hirose Family.
Kiyomi Kasuga: Owner of Snack New Gaudi, a local bar.
Koji Masuzoe (Boss): The powerful Patriarch of the Masuzoe Family.
📝 Step-by-Step Walkthrough: Onomichi
Phase 1: Settling In and Local Scuffles
Arrival and Housing: The chapter begins with Kiryu, Haruto, and Yuta arriving in Onomichi. Follow the pink dot to your new lodgings, a small apartment on the main street.
First Fight (Nagumo): After the initial cutscenes, you'll immediately be confronted by Tsuyoshi Nagumo (the new local hothead) outside your apartment.
Fight 1: Nagumo - This is a simple brawl. Nagumo is more aggressive than previous non-boss enemies, but the small street is full of environmental weapons (signs, bikes). Use them and your Heat Actions.
Phase 2: Meeting the Hirose Family
Hirose Family Office: Nagumo will give you your first lead. Follow the pink dot to the Hirose Family office, tucked away in Shops Alley. You'll meet the Hirose Family Patriarch, Toru Hirose, and other members. Kiryu decides to stay in Onomichi to investigate Haruka's time there.
Kiyomi's Bar: A key figure, Kiyomi Kasuga, is mentioned. Head to her bar, Snack New Gaudi (pink dot), for a cutscene. Kiyomi suggests you play some baseball with the locals to integrate.
Note: This unlocks the Baseball Mini-Game, a key activity in Onomichi.
Phase 3: Haruto and Investigation
Haruto's Needs (Motion Control Tutorial): Kiryu heads out to buy milk. This segment is an important tutorial: you must keep Haruto calm using motion controls.
When Kiryu holds Haruto, watch his tells (movements) and respond with the correct controller motion/action:
Arms out, head nodding/shaking: Swing (move the controller horizontally).
Hands up (90-degree angle to shoulders): Lift (move the controller vertically).
Slightly spread arms, looking up: Upsy-Daisy (push both thumbsticks up).
Arms low, subtle head movement: Head Rub (slide your thumb on the touchpad).
Searching for Milk: Multiple pink dots will appear on the map, pointing to potential places to buy milk. You must visit all of them.
The Barbershop: After checking the stores, a pink dot will point you to a local barbershop. Enter, calm Haruto, and speak to the owner for a cutscene, which ends in a minor fight with a drunk patron.
Back to the Apartment: Return to your apartment to trigger the next set of cutscenes, advancing the time to morning.
Phase 4: The Baseball Battle
Baseball Field: A pink dot appears, leading you to an area where you will be teleported to the baseball field for a mandatory story game. This is where you meet the captain of the local team.
Baseball Game (Mandatory): You must play the game. You are intended to lose this match (it's a scripted defeat), but focus on getting the timing down for the Yakuza Baseball Mini-Game.
The Ambush: After the game, the group is ambushed by members of the Masuzoe Family.
Boss Fight: Koji Masuzoe & Minions - This is your first proper boss fight in Onomichi. Masuzoe is a large, powerful opponent who hits very hard.
Strategy: First, eliminate the two accompanying minions. Use your Extreme Heat Mode here for massive damage, or focus on throwing objects (if any are nearby) and using Heat Actions against Masuzoe to conserve health. Dodge laterally to avoid his powerful swings and strike him with quick combos.
Chapter End: After defeating Masuzoe and his thugs, you have an important cutscene with a key revelation about the local yakuza's involvement in a much larger plot. Kiryu and his new allies resolve to delve deeper into the mystery.
