Substories function as side quests for Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Like previous Yakuza games, you gain access to more as you progress the story and interact with more characters. Some you only need to go to locations or talk to people to start, but some require Kasuga to have minimum levels on his Personality stats before they can be completed. There are a total of 52 substories in Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Bonds are basically the friendship levels you have with each of the main party members.The max bond level for all characters is 5, and you can check the bond status by checking the party tab in the pause menu.When the Bond level progress reaches a certain point you go to Survive bar and do an event with that character to raise their bond to the next level. During the events, you can respond to questions from the other members and some responses raise Kasuga’s Personality stats a small amount, but all events progress regardless of what answers you give. This can be done easily if you have money to blow. Going to the hostess clubs like Lin Lin or Rose Blossom allows you to get massive amounts of bond points. If you max out the happiness meter for the hostesses you pick, you will gain a lot of affection for the party members you bring with you.

Eri joins your party after you get Ichiban Confections into the top 100 businesses in Yokohama. This is done through the business management minigame unlocked in chapter 5. Once you reach rank 100, you can talk to Eri at Survive Bar to have her join your party. Eri is unique because you only increase her bond rank through the business management minigame by increasing Ichiban Confections' ranking.You will earn this achievement at the same time that you earn the achievement Presidential Power for becoming the top company in Yokohama.

Job Hopper
Changed Kasuga to three different jobs other than his starting job.
This achievement will unlock once you have change Kasuga to any three jobs other than Freelancer or Hero at Hello Work.

Life Experiences
Changed Kasuga to eight different jobs other than his starting job.
You can earn this after reaching level 20 and having level 3 style, level 3 charisma, level 5 kindness, level 5 passion, level 7 intellect, and level 7 confidence. When you are first introduced to job change, you only have a limited number of options. Increasing player level and personality stats will grant Ichiban access to the rest of them. Once you have the required stats, just go to Hello Work and swap between all jobs consecutively to earn this trophy. The jobs that count are Enforcer, Fortuneteller, Host, Chef, Bodyguard, Breaker, Foreman, and Musician. Freelancer and Hero do not count because they are Ichiban's default jobs.

Career Counseling
Changed all four party members to jobs different from their default jobs and won a battle.
You can do this immediately after being introduced to job changes at Hello Work. Everyone starts with 1-2 alternate jobs they can swap to. Simply make sure all party members swap to a non default job, then win 1 battle to unlock this achievement.

Professional
Raised 1 job’s rank to max.
You can unlock this achievement when you raise any job with any character to level 30.

Master of Trades
Raised 3 jobs’ ranks to max.
You can unlock this achievement when you raise any 3 jobs with any characters to level 30.

Jack of All Trades
Raised 7 jobs’ ranks to max.
For this achievement, "max" rank is actually Level 30 for each job. Jobs now can go up to Level 99. You only need seven different jobs across all characters to hit Level 30 as well, so assuming you have diversified your characters, you'll get Rank 30 with each of them around the same time and unlock this achievement.

Awakening Dragon
This achievement unlocks when Kasuga reaches level 10.


Rising Dragon
This achievement unlocks when Kasuga reaches level 30.


Like a Dragon
This achievement unlocks when Kasuga reaches level 50.


Ryu Ga Gotoku
To unlock this achievement you will have to reach player level 70 with Kasuga (Not job rank). Once you beat the game, you will likely be close to this because the final boss of the game is level 60, and the game hits a big difficulty spike in chapter 12 that will likely force you to level up to the mid-50s. If you plan on getting the the Victory of the Millennium, you are going to naturally reach player level 99 (max level) since the True Final Millennium Tower will require several jobs maxed out, and player level is shared throughout jobs. A nice grinding spot for chapter 12 is the Sotenbori Battle Arena, but if you have beaten the game already, then you will want to grind levels in the Kamurocho Underground Sewers by defeating the Invested Vagabond on floor B2F.

Your Personality stats are raised from doing various things in the game. Because of this, these 2 achievements are basically one of the last things you should worry about. Best way to raise your personality the rest of the way if you need at the end of the game is buying the “Rise Up!” item from Dragon Kart for 2500 rings. This adds +50 points to every personality category, so should inch you the rest of the way after you’ve finished everything else you need to do.

Sound Character
Raised one of Kasuga’s personality stats to max.
This achievement will unlock when you raise any of Kasuga’s 6 Personality stats to the max level of 10.

Obtained over 10 certificates from the vocational school.
Ounabara Vocational School is unlocked in chapter 4 via a substory. It allows you to spend money in order to take an exam comprised of 5 questions about a particular topic. Answering at least 3 out of the 5 questions correctly means you pass and are rewarded with points towards your personality stats. The questions are not that difficult, and actually offer you enough time to do a quick search on the internet to find the answer you need.

Pop the Cork
Beat all Dragon Kart cups and rival races.
You unlock Dragon Kart in chapter 4, but cannot earn this achievement until chapter 15. This is because the final 2 rival races only unlock in chapter 15. For this achievement, you must win all 4 cups and all 6 rival races. Dragon Kart is basically Yakuza's spin on Mario Kart. You race in go karts and fire weapons at your opponents to hinder them. You can purchase new karts which have different stats and even upgrade them to make their stats better. I did this with zero issues using a fully upgrade standard kart. If you have the money go ahead and upgrade it right away and just start winning races. After beating the first 3 cups you will then be tasked with beating everyone in rival races. There are 5 of these you must win before you unlock the 4th cup but after winning the 4th cup you will unlock the 6th and final rival race. Simply win that rival race to earn this trophy. As stated before, just spend money to fully upgrade the standard kart and you should have no issues.

Can Quest Hero
Beat all the can-collecting courses.
You are introduced to Can Quest in chapter 3. Can Quest just involves you riding a bicycle around and collecting cans. As you do this other people will appear to ram you for cans or steal cans off the street. There are also garbage trucks that make you lose a lot of cans if you hit them, Tauriner drinks which allow you to boost and ram opponents to steal their cans, and a can girl who runs around dropping cans in piles of 3. By collecting a certain number of cans, you earn a rank which will then earn you an amount of points. You must collect the minimum amount of cans to complete the course. There are a total of 3 courses: Beginner, Normal and Hard. To earn this achievement you only have to beat each course with the minimum amount of cans. It is not required that you earn an S-Rank.

Sleep Sheep Slapper
Watched all the movies at the theater without falling asleep.
You unlock the Seagull Movie Theater in chapter 4 through a substory. The movie minigame essentially involves you playing a QTE game where you will press face buttons and directions on the D-Pad to fight off sheep who will try to put you to sleep. Whenever a sheep appears, press the corresponding button to fight it off and stay awake before it hurts your awake meter. Sheep that have the word "Rapid" mean you have to press the corresponding button 5 times before it will leave. Roosters are friendly and will help you wake up by smashing cymbals together. However, if you hurt them, they will hurt you instead. To win the minigame, just make sure you stay awake for the entire film. You can take damage to your awake meter, as long as you do not fall asleep. There are a total of 10 movies to watch, and the next one will unlock after successfully watching the previous one. Watch all 10 movies without falling asleep to earn this achievement.

Playing With Fire
Entered into intimate relationships with over two female characters.
There are several female characters you are able to enteran intimate relatoinship with. Each one requires a maxed specific personality stat and a special condition. You can begin the substory with a certain amount of the personality stat, but you will not be able to max it out until you meet the extra condition and max the stat to level 10, so you are better off just waiting. Once you have the required stat and have done the extra condition, chat with them until you begin a substory. For most of them, you will ask them about their favorite flower which you will then have to buy them a bouquet of their favorite flower. The first time involves you buying/making 1 bouquet, the second time requires 5, and the third time requires you to buy/make 10. Thankfully, the Flowers 2 Go shop offers all the flower bouquets you will need so if you have the money just buy all 16 at once to avoid going back and forth. After talking to the character 3 times and delivering their bouquets, you will complete the substory and enter into an intimate relationship with them. The characters and requirements are as follows:

Sumire (Romance Workshop) - Lvl 10 Passion / Fully Upgrade the Romance Workshop / 16 Bonsai Trees

Saeko - Lvl 10 Style / Max Bond with Saeko

Eri - Lvl 10 Kindness / Max Bond with Eri

Honk-Honk Hero
Found all the people who will give you a honk-honk.
Honk-Honks are Yakuza's equivalent of Dragon Quest's Puff-Puffs. They involve a scene that implies relations between Kasuga and the person giving the Honk-Honk. There are a total of 5 Honk-Honk people throughout the game. 3 are found in Isazaki Ijincho, 1 is in Sotenbori and 1 is in Kamurocho. This means that you cannot earn this trophy until at least chapter 15. Honk-Honks cost money but a re great way to increase Kasuga's personality stats, especially if you can find them multiple times. Honk-Honk people do not always appear so you may have to fast travel back and forth in order for them to appear.https://youtu.be/zIoB5H8AvaY

Fight on the Sidewalk!
Someone got run over by a car in battle.
You will likely earn this naturally. Enemies roam all around town and can possibly engage you near a street with driving cars.

Treasure Displeasure
A creep crawled out of a safe for the first time.
You will earn this naturally as long as you don't skip the safes you come across in dungeons and towns. Like in many RPGs opening a chest may cause a mimic to appear instead of treasure. This is the equivalent of that. You will find various silver and gold safes throughout the game. Inside the safe is chance for an enemy to appear. If an enemy comes out of a safe, you will earn this trophy. The dungeon in chapter 6 has a safe in the middle of a room that's hard to miss. It guarantees a creep inside when you open it with the silver key. There are also many respawning safes throughout the game so just open one and have a creep come out in order to earn this achievement.

Romance of the 10 Pieces
Made 10 pieces of gear at Romance Workshop.
You are introduced to Romance Workshop early in the story, and it is where you can craft and upgrade gear to use with your party. Simply create and/or enhace 10 pieces of gear to earn this achievement.

Romancing the Forge
Fully upgraded Romance Workshop’s equipment.
When you go to Romance Workshop there is an option to fund the workshop to increase it's level. The max level is 4 which will earn you this achievement. Romance workshop starts at level 1 and upgrades to level 2 with 200,000 Yen, level 3 with 2,000,000 and level 4 with 20,000,000 Yen. This means you will need to donate a total of 22,200,000 Yen to earn this trophy. This amount is easily acquired throught the business management minigame.

Gear Fanatic.
Collected over 100 pieces of gear.



Gear Hoarder
Collected over 200 pieces of gear.
You will likely earn this achievement naturally as long as you actually pick up items you find in dungeons. There is also no need to sell gear because you will earn massive amounts of money if you do the business management minigame in chapter 5.u can buy gear from shops, make them at Romance Workshop, find them in dungeons and throughout the city and earn some as rewards from quests. Head pieces, body pieces, foot pieces and accessories all count toward this achievement. Simply collect over 200 pieces of gear to earn this trophy.

I Wanna Be the Very Best
Registered over 100 Sujimon to the Sujidex.


Gotta Catch ‘Em All
Registered over 200 Sujimon to the Sujidex.
You will likely earn this achievement naturally as you progress through the story. You are introduced to Sujimon and the Sujidex in chapter 4. This is a clear parody of Pokemon and involves you defeating enemies and registering them to your Sujidex. As long as you do not actively avoid fights for the entirety of the game, you will get this. There are a total of 252 Sujimon, and all enemies count towards the Sujidex including bosses. As soon as you defeat an enemy, it is registered to the Sujidex and counts toward this trophy. Simply register 200 out of 252 Sujimon to earn this achievement.

Pound It
Called for Poundmates 30 times.
You will be introduced to Poundmates in chapter 4. Poundmates is an app you will download to your phone that acts as a summon during battles, where in exchange for a monetary payment you can summon various characters to help you during battle. You gain more options in Poundmates through story progress and side content, and each time you get a new character as an option you can call them in for free the first time. For this achievement, you just need to call any character in a total of 30 times. You can view you progress towards this by viewing Challenge > Battle in the Part-time Hero menu and checking the Pound Town challenges. You’ll be awarded this trophy at the same time you earn the Pound Town Resident challenge completion.

Heir to the Legend
Beat the Sotenbori Battle Arena.
You will arrive in Sotenbori in chapter 12. Through the story, you will be introduced to the Sotenbori Battle Arena where you can battle through to earn nice prizes. The arena only has 30 floors and offers you a checkpoint every 5 floors. This means you can leave, replenish HP and MP then continue from a checkpoint.You do not have to complete the bonus requirements for all floors, you only to need to beat each floor to earn this achievement.

Food for Thought
Viewed more than 20 Table Talk scenes.
Table Talk scenes are dialogue exchanges between the playable characters inside restaurants. In order to trigger one, you have to actually order off the menu as opposed to simply ordering the recommendation. I recommend focusing on this after you have acquired all party members so you have access to all Table Talks. Not all places offer Table Talks and Table Talks are only triggered by certain food orders so just keep buying all items on the menu whenever you arrive at a restaurant you have not eaten at. However, some places like Le Nouveau Hama and Eomeoni's Vow offer multiple Table Talks so if you get one, try again to see if you get another. There are a total of 30 Table Talks but you only need 20 to earn this achievement.

Fulfiller of Dreams
Completed the last dungeon in Premium Adventure.
Once you beat the game, you will be given access to Premium Adventure which allows you to free roam and do side missions and activities. One other thing you can do is a post game dungeon called the Final Millennium Tower. The Final Millennium Tower basically has you replay the final dungeon of the game but with tougher enemies this time including clones of Majima, Kiryu, and Saejima. If you are at least level 70 with a job at level 30+, you should okay to tackle this dungeon and have little to no issues. Once you defeat Amon on the top floor, you will earn this achievement.

Victory of the Millennium
Beat the True Final Millennium Tower.
This trophy is the hardest/longest achievement in the game, and will likely be the last thing you earn.
After clearing the Final Millennium Tower which is the first post game dungeon, the game will inform you that you may now access the True Final Millennium Tower which is the toughest challenge the game has to offer. In order to have the stats needed to clear this dungeon, you are going to have to max out several jobs. This is because jobs can go up to 99 and offer permanent stat bonuses after rank 30. This dungeon is gonna require you to max out almost every relevant job for your party in order to be able to survive. I suggest farming Invested Vagabond enemies in the Kaurocho Underground Sewers. There are 4 of them that appear on floor B2F and they offer around 400,000+ job experience when defeated. Boost this with things like job experience accessories and you will rank up almost every time you beat one. Be aware, however, that this is still a lengthy grind. Once you have the stats you think are necessary, go ahead and make a save outside the tower before heading in. This is because, just like the Final Millennium Tower, the True Final Millennium Tower offers no retries until the final boss. There is also no exit once you go in until you reach the end of a floor so if you find yourself unable to get through it, you can at least back out to the main menu and reload your save right before you went in. Once you've cleared this obstacle, You'll unlock this achievement.

The New Dragon
Obtained all achievements.


Congratulations on getting all of the achievements.
