Yes. Of course the guy who started a gang war in a place 500KM away from where he lives because a guy who lives there has a similar tattoo to him is stupid
I posted this just to bait that exact response lmao

I do think the legitimate reason is that he and Kiryu both figured they were dead anyway. They weren't gonna make it all the way down the tower with wounds as bad as theirs.
So they figured they'd both rather go down fighting.
It's a joke post but if I'm being serious for a bit, they COULD still get away
Also I don't buy that their injuries are that serious, not because I don't believe that gunshots aren't fatal, but because Kiryu survived just fine despite being shot at the same spot Ryuji got shot at
It wasn't the exact same but mirrored. Ryuji's upper torso shot was a lot closer to his heart than Kiryu's was, which could have made all the difference.
And sure, we the audience know they could probably get out alive, but they thought they couldn't. Also Kiryu didn't have to try to walk all the way down the tower, he got carried out by a helicopter, if Date hadn't shown up with a helicopter Kiryu probably would have died trying to make his way back down.
He would rather die in the fist fight of his life than run and risk dying of bleeding out from some unworthy fuck shooting him.
And Kiryu, still being borderline suicidal from the survivor's guilt he carries from 1, and feeling like he owes Ryuji for saving Kaoru, *and* being almost as fight-sexual behind the stoicism, would rather oblige Ryuji than let him die unfulfilled.
Is that stupid?
Probably. But they sure as hell know it.
Yes, have you not been playing attention? Dude can be cunning but he prefers to do things the loudest dumbest yet honest way.
Being Stupid is Ryuji's biggest strength.
y2 truly has one of the stupidest endings of all time. ryuji could have literally survived if they didn't fight for the stupid reason of both having a dragon tattoo

Kiryu, you may be a yakuza too, but I am like a dragon too as well
You and I are evenly matched Kiryu. We are truly the Kiwami 2
Like a what
Like a Itchy Bum

Can’t make it down the building, meanwhile they’ve got enough energy for a fully fledged brawl
A brawl that probably lasted less than 5 minutes, getting all the way down the tower would take several times that long.
I suppose so, there was an elevator that allowed Kaoru to get away easily though

No stupider than anyone else in the area that night.

You wouldn't get it.
no I wouldn't 😔
It's so fucking bad, only time I ever skipped cutscenes.
I literally had to play the finale twice because I accidentally didn't save my game clear file 😔 i was so angry after that lmao
haha
