==Involvement==
===Yakuza 4: 2010===
Motoyama reunites with Taiga Saejima after he is sent by one of Tadakoro's subordinates to get rid of Motoyama. Motoyama still holds a huge grudge against Saejima over what happened back in 1985, and they fight. After that, Saejima reveals to him that Sasai is still alive, but not in great condition.
Upon hearing that, Motoyama decides to close this chapter of his life and leave Kamurocho, but admits that, much like Saejima, he's been in this "prison" for half his life and was too scared to see what the outside is like. Saejima tries to comfort him by saying that he will be there if he ever needs to come back.
