As the name suggest, Kurohyō is a spin-off of the Ryu ga Gotoku/Like a Dragon series (know simply as 'Yakuza' in the west); the games are known as Yakuza: Black Panther by western fans. While the original Yakuza series mainly focuses on over-the-top battles against multiple opponents, Kurohyō takes a more realistic, 1-on-1 approach.
The game was developed by Syn Sophia (formely AKI Corporation), the same studio behind the Def Jam games.
The reason I'm bringing this up is because the fan-translation project for Kurohyo 1 was completed after 7 years in the making... for the most part. From what I heard the main story is fully translated but some side-stories and menus are not. The translation team said that this is as far as they'll go.
Now, if only the Kurohyo games could get a remaster like they did for Yakuza 3-5. Or at least feature Tatsuya Ukyo in the mainline Yakuza games.
Happy 5th anniversary, Punch Club! The game was originally titled VHS Story.
