Each main character has a side game or goal which must be completed, and many side games are related to trophies.
Akiyama may create friendship (馴染み Najimi?) with some NPCs by buying them items, or with some storekeepers by being a regular customer. His other mission, Create a #1 Hostess! (No.1キャバ嬢をつくろう！ No.1 Kyabajō o Tsukurō!?), is to scout girls for the cabaret he owns. A girl is improved by dressing her up and training her. After she becomes number one, the player can choose a final outfit for her and she will appear at the cabaret. A similar challenge in the Japanese version of Yakuza 3 was cut from overseas versions.
