I mean we are shown again and again that the Tojo Clan fucking sucks like pretty much all the other yakuza clans, who are also filled to the brim with irredeemable monsters. Is it any surprise that the foreign crime syndicates might also be filled with monsters? Perhaps better diversity within these groups could have helped, and this is something that I feel later games have handled well (Like a Dragon). I have a hard time accepting that it is racist to portray criminals who happen to be foreign as bad when they basically fit the same mold of evil schemers as literally everyone else. Kiryu just wants the Tojo to leave him alone but keeps getting dragged back into their affairs because his personal life somehow becomes intertwine, and he also feels he owes it to Daigo. I do see where you're coming from with how the Tojo problem is sometimes portrayed as simply being a matter of the wrong people running it, but LAD also kinda put that to rest.
