A common theory is that the character Hanawa, Kiryu’s handler from Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, is actually Yu Morinaga from Yakuza 5. This is because Spoiler:Morinaga was killed off-screen and his body was never shown, the character has the same voice actor as Hanawa, and he calls Kiryu "Taichi Suzuki", which is the codename he goes by in Yakuza 5.

The Tsukimono area in Yakuza 5 features an ice sculpture of Hatsune Miku, a virtual idol likeness owned by Crypton Future Media and licensed out to Sega for video game appearences. Although this might be coincidental rather than an intentional reference, Crypton is located in Sapporo, the same city as Tsukimono.

Unlike other characters in Yakuza 5 or in other games where they would start with a few thousand yen, the beginning of Tatsuo Shinada’s story has him start with exactly 217 yen in his in-game inventory. He cannot spend or earn any additional money during this portion of the game. This is referenced in a cutscene where Shinada empties his wallet into his hand, where exactly 217 yen in coins fall into it.
