- Akira Nishikiyama (Japanese: 錦山 彰, Hepburn: Nishikiyama Akira), often shortened to Nishiki, is a fictional character from Sega's action-adventure game series Yakuza, previously titled Yakuza outside of Japan. He is the sworn brother and childhood best friend of series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu, who insists on taking the blame for Nishiki after he murdered their boss, which resulted in Kiryu's expulsion from the Tojo Clan, the dominant yakuza organization in Tokyo, and his imprisonment for ten years. Nishiki establishes the Nishikiyama Family as a "subsidiary" of the Tojo Clan, and later triggers an internal power struggle for the clan's leadership shortly after Kiryu's release, leading to the two men becoming mortal enemies. Nishiki also appears as a supporting character in the prequel installment, Yakuza 0, which follows Kiryu's early years as a low-ranking member of the Tojo Clan. For Yakuza Kiwami, the remake of the original Yakuza, Nishiki's role in the narrative is expanded, with his motivations being more clearly explained. He is voiced by Kazuhiro Nakaya in Japanese, and by Michael Rosenbaum in the English version of the first game. The character of Nishiki is positively received, particularly for his expanded story arc in Kiwami and when it is contrasted with his depiction as a benevolent character in 0. (en)

- "It’s a sobering and enlightening transition. All of these scenes show how someone who was a friend turns into an enemy. Yakuza Kiwami shows Nishiki pushed until he breaks. After being seen as useless for so long, as less than the person who was supposed to be his equal, and abused by so many, he snaps. While he does abhorrent things, this game makes it easier to see why he changed and became the man he did. These new scenes make things so much easier to understand and strengthen both the story and game in the process. (en)
