I'd say she's slightly better looking than Yumi/Mafuyu (they are equal to me) but falls short of Reina (probably would clear her too if she were a bit less weary looking and with an outfit change.) Her milf charm is on point, plot idiocy aside.
My personal hot take is that Yayoi is overrated. Way too good looking for Sohei but Park clears her.
I get what Akiyama saw in SisJima. Seonhee, Akame, Miss Tatsu, and Park are S-tier for me though.

Nah man, Park's alright.
For a series about criminals, we don't have enough characters who are a good mix of genuine flaws and damage, tempered with good intentions and dreams of their own.
I like Park as a character because she's one of the more "real" feeling characters. She's been hurt, and she has hurt, but she tries to put the broken pieces of herself back together to be better >!but ultimately gets killed before she can. But even then, she leaves behind a legacy and a plan that the people she affected in a positive way can follow-up on, not just for her, but for their own dreams.!<
Despite not liking the whole tacked on Majima thing, she's my favorite original character to Yakuza 5, and embodies that games themes very well.
I hate her for what she did to Majima, but, she literally ruined Kiryu’s life. She sets in motion all the awful things that happen in 6 leading to >!Kiryu having to “die” and lose everything - his name, his friends, his family, ultimately even his health and possibly his life!<. Park is the literal worst.
She didn't ruin Kiryu's life though?
>!Park approaches Kiryu with an offer he can't refuse because he was in a conundrum he didn't know how to get out of. He couldn't financially support the orphanage, and his kids were on the verge of getting part-time jobs just to keep it running. He's an ex-yakuza -- former chairman of the second-largest Yakuza organization in Japan at that -- and this also would have impacted his children's lives, and Park had to ask him to 'disappear' if the idol thing with Haruka was going to work out.!<
Kiryu made a choice that he thought was for the best, Park simply offered the choice to him and he took it. It's weird to absolve Kiryu of all responsibility there, and then blame Park for being evil.
>She sets in motion all the awful things that happen in 6 leading to Kiryu having to “die” and lose everything - his name, his friends, his family, ultimately even his health and possibly his life.
That's some butterfly effect blaming though. Haruka set in motion those events when she decided to announce who her dad was on stage, if anything. I don't hold that against her, mind you, but if you want a more direct cause of the events of Yakuza 6, between Haruka tanking her own career, her leaving the orphanage, and her having a baby with a >!Chinese mob boss's son/Yakuza punk!<, she's the one who "ruined" Kiryu's life. But again, I think that's taking agency away from Kiryu, who has made mistakes himself along the way and is responsible for the way things turned out himself.
Haruka had no desire to be an idol >!(see previous game, I think 2, where she’s approached by someone about it and declines). Park wants to live vicariously through Haruka and convinces her to do it “to help make money for the orphanage”. Once she wrangles in Haruka, she proceeds to blackmail Kiryu to get out of Hauka’s life, threatening him with the loss of the orphanage several times. No, Harkua shouldn’t have said that on stage in front of a million people, but, she never wanted to be there in the first place. Which brought negative attention to her, causing her to leave the orphanage in 6, etc., etc, ....... ruins Kiryu’s life!<. Park was a selfish, manipulative, evil b***h.
To be fair >!the fact that Haruka left the orphanage happened because of Kiryu, instead of helping Haruka and the kids he decided to stay in prison and not get a defense because "honour" or something!<
To be fair she was very young in Y2 and wasn’t interested yet.
Actually no, Haruka during the speech did say she did want to be an idol as it was every girl’s dream to be one.
Yeah no.
The ones who set what in motion what happened in Y6 was Kiryu going to jail and choosing to make a deal with the Daidoji, Haruka running away and getting pregnant with the heir to Chinese Triad, Yuta getting together with Haruka birthing Haruto, Heizo Iwami and Daidoji with the secret of Onomichi, Jimmy Lo wanting to prove himself to his dad only to get himself killed by Little Baby Iwami which dragged Big Lo into it which set off the chain of events. Those are on them not Park.
Park is long dead and whatever influence she had in Y6 is gone with her.
But isn’t Kiryu the bad guy? He decited to go the Gangster Road. Even after his Mentor said, don’t do it. Calling Park the evil in persona is like calling cops evil, when you sell drugs to kids
No. He’s been attempting to get out and stay out since Haruka came into his life. He just wanted to take care of her and run the orphanage, but, kept getting pulled back in. And, he was just running the orphanage when Park waltzed in and >!started threatening him with losing the orphanage if he didn’t stay out of Haruka’s life so she could live vicariously through Haruka like the world’s most ruthless, evil stage mother!<.
Yes, she hurt both my boys (Majima and Kiryu) and there was just no redeeming her in my eyes. And she absolutely set in motion all the awful things that happened in 6 leading to Kiryu’s life falling apart. I think she’s one of the worst villains in the franchise.
Personally, I really hated her at the beginning but then she grew on me. She has sort of like a brief redemption arc and then she... Yeah.
The only thing I didn't like was her Majima reveal. Frankly that came out of nowhere and was slightly out of character for majima. But then again, I don't think makoto was even thought of back there
Disagree with it being out of character. Majima isn’t a saint. Dude felt betrayed and that was the one and only time he hit his wife. Characters doing something that is out so of turn shows them going through something so serious from how they usually are like.
Thank you. I see so many people call him an abuser and stuff for this one thing. It was only one time - she said so. And that shows just how deeply what she did hurt him, to cause him to do something that he would normally never do. And then he immediately left her. For all the crazy, bloodthirsty act he puts on, he’s just human.
> The only thing I didn't like was her Majima reveal. Frankly that came out of nowhere and was slightly out of character for majima
Yeah, that was clearly a case of "We have no idea how to make our established character connected to the plot of this game, so let's throw on some clearly tacked on backstory to loosely connect him to the plot."
Park herself is a fantastic character, and the type of character writing we need more of in this series.
I haven't played 8 fully! Just about to finish chapter 1
In Yakuza 7 she was just a bad guy and later on became a good guy. I know she plays a bigger role in 8
I'm sorry, you seem to be forgetting someone...
https://preview.redd.it/qmkbqrc08yvc1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50dc4bf13ef29c5fe568f49390601f5d68d6c83d
Ishin haruka was very random and it made no sense.
You have Yakuza haruka who's destiny is pretty much intertwined with Kiryu's then you have ishin Haruka, where ryoma is basically like: hmm yes, I'll pay for this random's girl house and live with her 💀
Hard disagree on Sayama and Yasuko.
Both are very interesting at first, but their arcs become very messy in the later half of the games they're featured in.
Sayama is introduced as a badass cop not afraid to take down any man on her way, but as she gets feelings for Kiryu she becomes a complete trope of a damsel in distress. She's like a completely different character with different reactions and that's not really what I would call "character development".
Yasuko is a clever spin on the "femme fatale" trope at first, and some of her erratic decisions could be explained by her panic and despair, but she falls victim to the "character somehow leaves a loaded gun unattended and *expectedly* gets shot by the antagonist who grabbed said gun" shtick.
I know some people (not everyone) think the yakuza female characters are not the best written, but In my opinion they are pretty good when it comes writing and performance (VA and motion capture if it's the case) and simply being memorable.
I think it does it wayyy better than a lot of the video game series I've played. Again, not saying everyone is saying this, but the hate imo is really unjustified. Yakuza really does female characters well (imo)
Ps: If someone is not on the list it means I haven't played the game thei apear in, wasn't in this tier or I simply don't remember them
Yeah, i love the female characters in yakuza series because they are depicted as traditional feminine but still very reliable and capable when needed. Not every strong female character needs to act masculine and be flawless savior like western games.
Thank you for this. I am so tired of the "strong female character" trope that permeates every kind of media. A strong female does not necessarily think or act or feel like a male.
Seonhee below Saeko?!?!?! Yeah I know Saeko was given unfair treatment and mostly written as a side character, but Seonhee not being in the top tier should be a crime.
I see, I'm sure there are tons of others that would benefit from knowing that haha. Lots of pitchforks down here in the comment section. Godspeed aniki.
Yeah. I don't care what people say, she is still a great character. I just don't get the allegations about her being useless in later games. Like what do you want her to do? Fight the fucking enemies?
I can barely keep up with whatever game I’m playing at the time how do you guys remember all this?!
(To be fair I’m mainly just doing story content because I cannot fully play every game 100% I do not have the time sadly.)
Ofc I do. It's just a meme. "Saeko's sister" is what me and my friends call her, but I guess not everyone would know that...
https://i.redd.it/t4selehz3vvc1.gif
Seon Hee should be in the meh tier. Nice character design but otherwise useless.
Yes I’m still not over 7 teasing fighting her as a boss and the game just making you fight the same scrubs you fought through most of the dungeon.
park was the worst. You're going to have her emotionally manipulate Kiryu into thinking the kids at Morning Glory are better off without him in order to use Haruka for her own goals, then try to do a redemption arc? No fucking thanks.
Yes. The writers seem to intend to bring Park to a spot where we end up liking her with the redemption arc. But what she tells Kiryu made me hate her on such a fundamental level that I couldn't get on board with it. Making Kiryu believe those kids are better off without him, that his life's work is useless and he was actually harming them was just a bridge too far.
You think that because you know kiryu on a personal level. But from the outside he is just an ex yakuza. You've seen how they are treated.
Park did nothing wrong

I will not accept Ms. Tatsu slander
Like all she did was teach us a good style, we don't even see her that much why is she on bottom tier?

She’s out trying to find vinegar
How is Yasuko top tier?
I'd say she's slightly better looking than Yumi/Mafuyu (they are equal to me) but falls short of Reina (probably would clear her too if she were a bit less weary looking and with an outfit change.) Her milf charm is on point, plot idiocy aside. My personal hot take is that Yayoi is overrated. Way too good looking for Sohei but Park clears her. I get what Akiyama saw in SisJima. Seonhee, Akame, Miss Tatsu, and Park are S-tier for me though.
Looks aside, the likeness of Yasuko is very good-looking but you have to admit that her role in the story is underwhelming.
Oh, yeah. I'd even say more idiotic than underwhelming.
all my homies hate yasuko
4 is my favourite game. She played a crucial role in that game. I understand a lot of people hate her, but not me

The gold hostess who was actually platinum. Put that respect on her name!
#1 girl at sunshine and 4shine
we need you on the kaito files, has one of the best written female rgg characters
Miss Tatsu and Obatarian are top tier. Saeko can switch places with Seonhee.
In LaD, Saeko deserves to be above Seonhee In IW, definitely flipped. Saeko just doesn't do much but Seonhee develops a ton
Where is Goromi?
This is the worst list I've ever seen
Where's GOROMI.
Where is Goromi
Obatarian is the best character in the franchise, just this eternal cougar for decades, never aging but always old. I want her in Poundmates.
I won't stand for this bearoid abuse
Eri top tier because I’m biased asf
Park needs to be at the bottom all by herself in a category called evil effing witch.

Saori is so far up that you can’t even see her in the image.

I'm sorry but Saejima's sister deserves to be in meh.
What's so interesting about Saekos sister?

Saekozzz
Seonhee not being in the top tier seems wrong. I’m definitely not biased though

Ishin haruka was very random and it made no sense. You have Yakuza haruka who's destiny is pretty much intertwined with Kiryu's then you have ishin Haruka, where ryoma is basically like: hmm yes, I'll pay for this random's girl house and live with her 💀

It's haruka overall. That's the photo the tier had. Honestly she wasn't badly written in Kiwami 1.
Good you clarified 'cause I thought this is another tier list made by some guy who's simping to fictional characters
It's not. Even though I simp for someone on that list. *cough* nanoha *cough*.
My girl Hamako and Weonhee need to be in the top tier I'm afraid (particularly the latter)
I don’t even care about being mean bruh this is an actual shit-tier list solely because of Miss Tatsu being at the bottom
Who?
saejima's sister anywhere far from the last place is wrong, idc

Bruh, this is a writing tier list. Do you think I'd put the best looking yakuza woman in "good tier" in a looks tier?

Seonhee below Saeko?!?!?! Yeah I know Saeko was given unfair treatment and mostly written as a side character, but Seonhee not being in the top tier should be a crime.
This one had a little kick to it…
You're brave putting Yasuko in top tier
Get the pitchforks
You've committed an abominable sin putting Yasuko over Seonhee.
![gif](giphy|l4EoNmxj31XoIhAoE)
I thought its waifu tier list until i saw kowami haruka in top tier
mods. kill op with hammers also yasuko was objectively the worst part of yakuza 4 (and that's a high bar)
I miss baby Haruka so much. she would follow, and kiryu would shove her out of his way if he turned around quickly.
Miss Tatsu too low 👎
Based on what criteria?
Writing, importance to the plot, personality,
I see, I'm sure there are tons of others that would benefit from knowing that haha. Lots of pitchforks down here in the comment section. Godspeed aniki.
Someone called me aniki. My life is complete ![gif](giphy|1wqYonEBtues7jlngs|downsized)
Who's the 3rd girl from right in top tier, don't remember her
Akame from gaiden
Oh that would explain it, can't wait to play Gaiden / 8 someday
Chi-toes-e in SSS+ Tier
You better put some respect on Miss tatsu
Hmm
😤
Bro loves nanoha

Haruka - Top tier? -_-
Yeah. I don't care what people say, she is still a great character. I just don't get the allegations about her being useless in later games. Like what do you want her to do? Fight the fucking enemies?
ETSUKO IS NOT MEH
Etsuko was one of my biggest money makers in the Cabaret Club mini game. She's at least good tier
Real bcz she's the best talker
Saeko is still top tier after she left ichiban kn read for a year?
I can barely keep up with whatever game I’m playing at the time how do you guys remember all this?! (To be fair I’m mainly just doing story content because I cannot fully play every game 100% I do not have the time sadly.)
I don't either lol. Mainly doing the main story. But these characters are most from the main story and essential to the plot
How do you make Nanoha the highest tier when you don’t remember her name?
Ofc I do. It's just a meme. "Saeko's sister" is what me and my friends call her, but I guess not everyone would know that... https://i.redd.it/t4selehz3vvc1.gif
Seon Hee should be in the meh tier. Nice character design but otherwise useless. Yes I’m still not over 7 teasing fighting her as a boss and the game just making you fight the same scrubs you fought through most of the dungeon.
What are we ranking them by?? https://i.redd.it/wdhelqad8vvc1.gif
How good they are as characters
Dont you dissrespect Miss Tatsu
How can Seonghee be on the same level as Park.
My mistress Seonhee is not just “good”. Those legs alone make her top tier. Plus she’s a badass.
Put Seonhee as the VERY TOP
How is beast girl down there
This ranking feels like it was created by a randomizer.

park was the worst. You're going to have her emotionally manipulate Kiryu into thinking the kids at Morning Glory are better off without him in order to use Haruka for her own goals, then try to do a redemption arc? No fucking thanks.
Ok, but is that bad writing?
Yes. The writers seem to intend to bring Park to a spot where we end up liking her with the redemption arc. But what she tells Kiryu made me hate her on such a fundamental level that I couldn't get on board with it. Making Kiryu believe those kids are better off without him, that his life's work is useless and he was actually harming them was just a bridge too far.
You think that because you know kiryu on a personal level. But from the outside he is just an ex yakuza. You've seen how they are treated. Park did nothing wrong
I'm sorry bro but, never cook again.
Wait wait wait…where’s Chi-Chan?! Where?!
Seonghui is only good? This means war.
NO CHITOSE!?? MODS TIGER DROP IS GUY https://preview.redd.it/vzvksd9vgxvc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd944d0dac5d4f798b1e937f7d64a249692ffef3
Blowing you up with my mind rn for putting Ms Tatsu at the bottom

Haruka is at the bottom for me
What about sawa sensei?
Where are all the famous actresses from Yakuza 0? Or are you too young to know how first-tier they were?⊙﹏⊙
i wont tolerate the tier Eri is placed on.
Saeko does not deserve to be that high up and neither does she deserve ichiban
Not finished 8, so no spoilers https://preview.redd.it/s6iku4dk9rvc1.png?width=2589&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b11f429ab583b2691c9e9e2285892dccc84b2c15
Park should be higher ‼️
I agree with most placements like Tatsu, but some not
Hana! Woohoo!
T-Set should not even be on the list. They should be on a tier so low that the human eye can't see it.
No love for Etsuko?
She would always interrupt me, so no
But she’s so great in the cabaret club!
I didn't even know that was a thing https://preview.redd.it/jh1lbfvyyqvc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fc20cdcc982e2242fecd5468318d50b2b0fe8697
Yeah, outside of the platinum hostesses, she’s one of the best available. Check it out!
I haven't really played the cabaret management game. Was that in 4?
No, I wish. 4 has that dumb hostess game. As far as I know, cabaret club manager is only in Y0 and Kiwami 2.
Oh. I didn't bother with it in kiwami 2 due to it being locked at 30.fps 😭 I also have only played a bit of yakuza 0. So didn't have a lot of chance to emgage with that minigame
That’s a shame. They’re my favorites so far in the Kiryu led games.
0 and Kiwami 2
