==Involvement==
=== Kurohyou 2: Ryu ga Gotoku Ashura-hen: 2011 ===
A few years later, he would come upon Ryo Nozaki, who worked as a physician. Using his knowledge of acupuncture, he healed Kazu's wounds and made him even stronger than what he used to be. After his miraculous recovery, he decided to get back into the fighting industry, becoming one of Asura's Eight Legions.
Tatsuya encounters him as his fifth opponent in Asura. He taunts Tatsuya about Shinji Sakamoto and his condition, telling Tatsuya about Shinji's brainwashing. He proceeds to fight Tatsuya, only to be defeated with a hit to the brain, taking him out of action once again.
== Fighting Style ==
Despite his fighting style being labeled "MMA", Kakizaki actually uses Extreme God Hand, upgraded to level 15 in the main story and level 40 in Premium Adventure. He deals great damage, but is very easy to catch counter. 
His invincible attack is 4 swing punches and a double hammerfist attack. If the last hit connects with Tatsuya, Kakizaki will do "Grizzly Rush".
