KIRYU CHAN!

[Nito]

The First "big" fight(when the freaking zombie guy(because he keeps coming back)) reminded me Majima on the first Yakuza of the PS2 as on a Fight he also keeps coming back for you to kick his ass over and over

The implication is he chooses to behave crazy, with Kiryu getting him pumped.

you should be confused, it makes no sense and is mostly just due to poor writing. I felt like they couldn't make Mad Dog Majima work with the story they had planned for 0 so they changed him, then used a late asspull to make him into the character he is in every other game. "LOL BRUH IM LIVIN IT UP FROM NOW ON" made no sense, they could have atleast used the torture and Saejima going to jail making him this crazy Joker archetype. If you played any of the previous games it just looks dumb and completely forced. Guy goes from a chill cabaret manager to a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ insane psycho that runs undeground gladiator rings and beats people close to death on the turn of a dime.

Poor writing? It was all led up to.

His lust for battle, not caring about being successful in business, meeting essentially proto-future him, his music tastes/fantasies, detaching himself from Makoto, finding a rival/equal in Kiryu.

It's not poorly written at all. Plus it was being led up to by the entire game. You're aware this is a prequel right? I'm a ♥♥♥♥♥♥' newb to the series and even I was able to figure that out. It isn't exactly a secret, The Mad Dog persona is something he puts on to mask his pain. It's an act.

The only issue I suppose is how the personality change appears like it turned on a dime, but that could just be implying Kiryu's 'aura' riled him up.

If it were a real personality change then sure. Kiryu does actually excite him because Majima loves fighting, and the fact that Kiryu is someone he can't just beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of easily probably does give him a chub. But as for the rest of his Mad Dog persona, it's all an act.

Real or fake, its introduction comes off as sudden in the limited context shown to the player in the epilogue.

I just take it as he started winging it from the moment he said "Kiryu-chan".
