Like a Dragon: Yakuza is an action drama that follows the dark underworld of the yakuza. The series is set in two different timelines as it shifts from 1995 to 2005. In 1995, it tells the story of how Kiryu and his friends, Nishiki, Yumi and Miho, planned a heist and ended up diving into the yakuza-controlled underworld. In 2005, the series shows Kiryu being released from prison. He then finds out from Detective Date that his friends are in danger, so he sets out to protect them. Although his intentions were good, their friendship had deteriorated by the time he reached his friends as tensions between the Tojo Clan and the Omi Alliance were at an all-time high.
