![]() ![]() This style disables Majima's ability to grab, but is compensated with a low kick ability (or a spinning attack once Majima is at the 3rd Gear Heat level). Attacks will mainly consist of kicks, flips and slashes/stabs. Unique to this style is the ability to run at an extreme speed. Majima will hold a tanto (dubbed the Demonfire Dagger) as a default weapon. It is loosely inspired by Homare Nishitani’s knife fighting style. Majima's Legend style combines street fighting, dancing, and melee weapons skills.

Majima is also able to dodge twice thanks to his speed. Majima's canonical style throughout Yakuza 0, which is a fluid combination of punches, kicks, rolls and counters, emphasizing on street fighting with hints of trickery and sneak attacks.

By this mandate of obsession (or object of obsession) is referred to as a reoccurring phenomenon by a target of Majima by the name of Kiryu as, "Majima Everywhere". As the "-" of his Presence Concealment is marked by Majima’s own discretion, if the target is of low interest then Majima will make less of a profound interest to stalk or surprise the individual(s). It is shown he has the ability to follow and surprise one unexpectedly, seemingly teleporting out from dumpsters to being dressed as police officer when clearly he isn't legally qualified to be one, not to mention he does all this with quite ease. He takes the title of Yakuza very seriously and has little qualm with beating those who risk taking the mantle regardless of their ability, Majima also acts as the comic relief. While debatably good at heart, Majima's not quite as saintly as Kiryu as he doesn't feel compelled to save everyone all the time, but he generally makes a point of saving the innocent from offenders, particularly the young and the weak. Majima enjoys power, and utilizing this fear for the "Mad Dog" becomes one his favorite tools in bending the wills of anyone below him, using regular random beatings on his own men to reinforce it. This crazy, psychotic, violent "Mad Dog of Shimano" side of him is what he becomes famous for as a Yakuza, to which he embraces for the rest of his Yakuza career except during times of serious high-level business. This joy for violence would manifest itself early in his career and make him an excellent fighter, although killing is generally against his code of honor.Īs of the events of Yakuza 0 close, Majima ultimately adopts a persona loosely inspired from his enemy-turned-friend Homare Nishitani, adapting some of Nishitani's mannerisms and ferocity into his own Yakuza style and building upon the reputation he gained during his one-man raid on the Dojima Family HQ in 1988 - arguably the birthplace of said persona. However, in spite of all this, the two traits that likely drew Majima to a life in the Yakuza are his deep personal joy for violence and to a lesser extent his drive for a state of power. This also led him to be favored by his superiors on multiple occasions, sometimes against his will as was the case with Sagawa. He is respectful by nature to strangers and superiors, and is surprisingly pragmatic, both of which made him a fantastic businessman throughout his life as shown by his success with the cabaret clubs Grand and Sunshine, and later his construction company. ![]() He loves to cut loose when formalities are not needed (particularly during karaoke) and sports a bit of a wild side - something he channels later as his legendary "Mad Dog of Shimano" persona. ![]() The core of his personality is a cool and collected individual with a high degree of charisma and who is surprisingly very soft at heart. Majima has a very unique multilayered personality. He originally has a medium-length haircut in most of his appearances and in the flashback scene in 4, but in 0, he grew his hair long enough to be done into a ponytail. ![]()
