Yup, that's exactly the same problem I had with it. Too much blocking. Thankfully that's only really a problem in Yakuza 3. I think they realized quickly that it was frustrating people and went back to a more forgiving enemy AI.

Y3 is definitely the weak point of the series. It's not just you.

Grabbed a bunch of stuff on sale from various stores over the last couple weeks, most of it not really worth going to the trouble of uploading pics to post except for these: I've had my eye on them for a few months and they don't seem to get discounted as often or as deeply anymore. So when they finally dropped back down to like 12-13 bucks each I just grabbed them all. Partially as an attempt to motivate myself to finish Yakuza 3 already. I started it back in October, ffs! It's not even that I'm not enjoying it (except for boss fights! Pro-tip: don't play this fucking game on hard...). I'll just play it for an evening, clear a chapter or two and then promptly forget it exists for like a month. It's good but it never really got its hooks into me the way the others did. You played them all, right @Mister Jack? Is it just me or is Y3 harder to get through than the others?
