Yakuza 0 is the pinnacle of the series, you should absolutely try it. Tbh, you can just play 0-Kiwami 1-Kiwami 2, it serves as a great trilogy, with one great game and two good remakes, while the Remastered trilogy (3-4-5) can be skipped if you already experienced them. I personally don't like 6 that much, but you can go for it for the story.
It's definitely difficult to go through the entire series consecutively. You can avoid burnout by breaking up your playthroughs with the spin-off. Both Judgment games are amazing and offer a fresh take on the old RGG formula.
Oh, I didn't clarify, but I have played Yakuza 0 earlier this year (loved it, great game), just wondering if I should play 1-5 or skip them. I have limited gaming time, and hundreds of games in my backlog / wishlist. 😀
I think I would go with your suggestion, play Kiwami 1 and 2, then watch the story of 3-4-5 for a recap, and then go to 6.
