Bio[edit | edit source]
Shun Akiyama is one of the main characters of the Yakuza series. He appears in Yakuza 4, 5, and 6. Akiyama runs a loan business in Kamurocho named Sky Finance, but operates very differently from a typical loan shark. He gives loans with no interest or collateral, as long as his clients can pass one of his "tests". These tests are to prove their dedication to using the money to better themselves, and the difficulty of the test rises in accordance with the amount of money requested. The tests can range from working at a humiliating job for a while, to trying to find people who would want to be business partners with them, to simply going on a date with him. Akiyama is a friend of Kazuma Kiryu, and took care of Haruka while he couldn't during the events of Yakuza 5. His fight style incorporates a lot of kicks and agile moves.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Akiyama made his first appearance in 8chanmania LVI where he faced Dilbert. Dilbert does not trust any kind of banker, and would not listen to reason. Unfortunately, Dilbert proved to be stronger than he looked and landed a pin on Akiyama.
