===Yakuza 2/Yakuza Kiwami 2===
Kazuma Kiryu meets a man called Inuzuka on the streets of Sotenbori. Inuzuka reveals that he has been paid by Kawauchi, one of his classmates, to fight him, with each of his friends receiving one hundred thousand yen as a reward no matter if they win or lose. Kawauchi, seeing Kiryu defeat his classmates, talks to Kiryu and tells him that he was simply just testing him. Kawauchi reveals that, ever since he heard of Kiryu being a prime candidate for succeeding Komaki as the leader of the Komaki school, he has been tracking him. Kawauchi further reveals that he is part of an ancient clan of martial artists, and that the guardianship of his family's Kawauchi school has fallen onto him and his brother, Gensho.
Motoe tasks Kiryu to fight Gensho, as Gensho has developed an irrational obsession with wanting to fight Kiryu. Motoe reveals that Gensho is to be found in the Coliseum in Kamurocho. Upon Kiryu defeating Gensho, Motoe tells Kiryu that Gensho has returned to his normal self and gives Kiryu Kawauchi's Primer.
