In a number of Yakuza games, Serena serves as the location that the game's finale is launched from.When he returns, the bar has been ransacked and Hana kidnapped. He allows Ichiban's party to use it as home base while they are in Kamurocho.ĭuring the zombie outbreak, Akiyama brings a feverish Hana here to rest. New Serena is still in operation during the events of Yakuza: Like a Dragon, and is still attended by Makoto Date. New Serena is still shown to be under the mama's ownership. Each one can be switched to by interacting with them. Just prior to the finale, as well as in Premium Adventure, the four inactive protagonists will be in the bar. New Serena briefly serves as the main protagonists' base of operations, similar to Yakuza 4. A space two floors above in the same building serves as the office of Sky Finance, a credit company owned by Shun Akiyama. Makoto Date lends a helping hand, as the owner was absent to attend to her family. The bar is bought and reopened under the name New Serena by an unnamed woman (given the name "Mariko" in the original English-language release on PlayStation 3). Kiryu uses it as a hideout, where he cares for an injured Kaoru Sayama. After Kiryu's release in 2005, he comes back to Serena to look for Yumi, not knowing that Reina is secretly working with Nishiki to find and track Kiryu.ĭuring the events of Yakuza 2/ Yakuza Kiwami 2 Serena is shown to be abandoned.
While Kiryu was behind bars, Yumi returned to Serena and worked there under the identity of "Mizuki", until opening her own bar, Ares. This causes Yumi to lose her memory and Kiryu to take the fall and go to prison. This all changes on the night of October 1, 1995, when Sohei Dojima is killed by Nishiki. Kiryu, Nishiki and Yumi continue to patronize Serena regularly.
In Like a Dragon: Prologue in 1990, Kiryu's and Nishiki's childhood friend Yumi Sawamura becomes a hostess at Serena. Later in the game, during Goro Majima's storyline, he fights Nishiki in Serena, with Reina providing Nishiki assistance in the battle. This is also where Kiryu first met Reina. There, Kiryu met Nishiki there and discovered he was a regular. Set in 1988, seven years before the first chapter of the first game, Yakuza 0 reveals that the one who introduced Kiryu to Serena was actually Jun Oda who recommended he go there. Kazuma Kiryu and Akira Nishikiyama became regulars after joining the Tojo Clan and moving to Kamurocho.
Serena was established or purchased by Reina sometime in or before 1988.
