10 Instant-Kill Boss Fights That Were Just Insulting

For as endearingly silly as the Yakuza series can be, these games aren't without their challenging moments, too. Whenever players aren't completing wacky side quests or indulging in extended karaoke sessions, they'll be faced with some difficult bosses.

One such opponent is Yosuke Tendo from Yakuza: Like A Dragon. A former boxing champion turned yakuza patriarch, this penultimate boss hits hard and can withstand a lot of punishment. Manage to whittle his health down to the halfway point and he'll equip brass knuckles to kickstart the second phase.

Yosuke will now have even more attacks at his disposal. The most dangerous, however, comes whenever he raises his arm and begins glowing pink. It's never a good sign with a boss has a charged attacked, and this one is no exception.

When ready, Yosuke unleashes a devastating punch called God's Right Hand that instantly takes out whoever it connects with. While having a character downed during an important fight is never ideal, the situation is infinitely worse if it's who's Ichiban targeted.

With no way to block the attack, Ichiban's death means an instant game over, and there was nothing players could do to stop it.
