Goro Majima is a character that is part of a multimedia series consisting of video games, films, magazines, and music.

Fictional character biography

Goro Majima.png

Goro Majima joined the yakuza and became sworn brothers with Taiga Saejima.

He was supposed to be part of a hit in 1985 on a rival gang with Saejima.

Instead, Saejima conducted the hit himself while Majima was captured, lost his eye, and was chained up.

After a year of torture, he was released to civilian life in Sotenbori, however, he was constantly watched by the yakuza.

In Sotenbori, he ran a successful cabaret with the promise that he would be able to return to Shimano's family if he raised 100 million yen.

He raised the money, but Shimano raised the debt to 500 million unless he killed a woman named Makoto Makimura.

Instead, Majima discovered a conspiracy surrounding Makimura. He protected her, uncovered the conspiracy, and returned to the yakuza.

When he returned to the yakuza, he adopted a manic personality and became known as the Mad Dog of Shimano.
