kiwami 1 is great. it has 0's completion menu, Majima everywhere, pocket racer, and a wholesome minigame where good insects fight bad ones to maintain peace in the forest.

Playing Judgment, really enjoying it except for this date where I have to play poker against a fake English dude. Low stakes poker sucks and takes forever.

one of the thugs in yakuza 5 says "yo, i'm gonna take your money" in english for some reason and i was so tired tonight that for a second i thought that my brain was automatically translating the japanese so well that i just heard it in english, despite never taking japanese in any capacity.

Intensely bothered by the fact that declaring riichi in the later Yakuza games doesn't have the rear end whipping soundtrack that 1 and 0 had

Edit: also 2!

Ha I remember that, had the same reaction like “why is this guy’s Japanese so weird” There’s also one (I think from 5, maybe a later one) that says “hey man… give.. me… some money… please!” before brawling. Appreciated that he asked nicely

Yakuza always has fun with English. I played 7 with the dub because my eyes were hosed up and I couldn't read subtitles at the time, and at the part where Ichi talks about not knowing much English, the actor slowly says out loud "AH... I DO NOT... KNOW ENGLISH... SORRY" then the character turns and looks into the camera for a beat

There's also an English-speaking guy who shows up to Poker sometimes in some of the games who yells things like "Oh, come on!" and he makes me lol every time.

The dissonance at the end of that is one of my favorite parts. He passes the torch, returning to the anonymous shadows to disappear forever because if he shows his face it will endanger people he loves... but also if you call him anywhere anytime he'll show up and help you beat people up even if it's in the middle of Kamurocho.

I mean he already stepped out dramatically in front of the entire gathering of the Tojo and Omi so I have no idea why they're still pretending there's a secret to hide lol
