I like to think that Kiryu genuinely enjoyed his conversation with Goromi because he got to learn more about Majima’s past/personality. Of course it was under ridiculous circumstances, but he seemed to be having a good time.
To be fair, they look to be like, 1.5-2 inch heels, so not ridiculously high. I could definitely see most people being able to fight in those. Now if they were like, 3-inch stilettos or higher, that’s something else entirely.
Kiryu has seen some fucking shit dude. He trained a Dominatrix and watched the whole session play out for fuck’s sake. A year after this he’d fight a bunch of diaper wearing Yakoozies. The man is more desensitized than any man has any right to be. And even then he still is ridiculously sick of this shit
It might be me but this is perhaps one of the few times where kiryu and majima had a heart to heart talk. Of how they talked it appears that they never had a moment to just speak, talk about the other about their lives and opinions. You can tell that kiryu knew jack about majima´s life, and that majima never really bothered to know who is the man behind the dragon of dojima on that point. Regardless of how bizarre is this situation, i find it heartwarming that they just took a moment to talk like friends, sharing views on stuff; not like the mad dog of shimano and the dragon of dojima
I think Majima secretly knows a lot about Kiryu, but pretends to be oblivious. In the beginning of Kiwami he bumps into him while Kiryu is going to Serena and is like "Your girl works there, right?". Why would he refer to Yumi as Kiryu's girl? As far as we know, Yumi's friendship with Kiryu & Nishiki was outwardly equal at that point. Nobody would have reason to suspect Kiryu's love for Yumi or vice versa (I mean he even forgot her birthday). At most Reina probably sensed Yumi has a crush on Kiryu and that's why she suggested him getting her a ring. Reina probably thought if Kiryu & Yumi were together then Nishiki would give up his love for Yumi and be with her instead. I think Majima would have to have done deep intel and stalking to come to the conclusion that Yumi was Kiryu's 'girl'. He would have had to pick up on the slightest mannerisms, glances, and body language...over a long course of time to understand this. I mean everything Majima says to Kiryu is to get under his skin, so he wouldn't have said it for nothing.
Not only did Majima convince the hostess club to have him for the night, he also convinced his men to get an outfit that would fit him, plus makeup and a wig.
I alwasy find the fight with Goromi hilarious as they delibaretely give Goromi alot of "Panty shot" since he keep having his leg spread open whenever he got knocked down
@@Jack-mt3fw I can indeed confirm my fiancé and I regularly kick the shit out of one another. It's how we show our love. There's no better way of showing your affection than getting physical... In more ways than one.
can we talk about the fact that he actually looked up how to apply makeup that looks good on his skintone and face shape? he really put in the work and he looks CUTE!
I thought it was funny when the moments came up where he also seemed to be coaching Kiryu on how to be a Cabaret patron, he can’t turn off training mode even if he tries
I wouldnt put it passed the development team to tell him to record the lines dressed up This is the same team that made mr libido after all @@ididntmeantoshootthatvietn5012
I feel like when Majima talks about a couple fighting to become stronger together, he is talking about his relationship with Kiryu, in the sense that nakama build a strong bond through fighting with each other.
If you tell Yakuza 0 Majima that in the future he will be sitting in the hostesses' place under the name of Goromi while crossdressing, I'm sure he wouldn't believe it 😂
In my experience, it is a completely normal thing to meet someone at a club, strike up a nice conversation, then immediately go out to the back alleys to kick the shit out of one another.
I always found it weird that the cabaret club girls were voice acted along with the first half of that quest with the judo guy when none of the others were but like dude it’s so nice hearing majima be calm for a little bit Also the first time I went to that club to see goromi I ended up talking to some girl who I’m pretty sure was gay
7:50 I just realized Majima doesn't like using women to make money because that's how Shimano used him to get to Makoto in 0! (Spoilers below) Majima was chosen to do the hit on Makoto because his boss knew he wouldn't actually kill her. This way, Majima and Makoto would get super close and thus he would be able to convince her to sell the land to Shimano. Majima DID end up getting close to Makoto, but really resented the fact that she was being passed around between all these Yakuza bigwigs. Clearly, that whole situation must have affected him a lot if he's still talking about it like, 18 years later. God, I love all the little details in the Yakuza games. It took me a few hours (and a refresher of 0's end-game plot) to even realize the connection. Good shit.
I learned more about life from a one eyed gay ass yakuza dude with cray cray who also happens to be dressed as a girl than I did from my 20 years of experience
Goro....goro..Jesus. Okay, even though this is beyond creepy. You have to give it to majima for the dedication he shows to his freind. Also give it up to kiyru for having the restraint not to knock goro out right as he sat down
Goro was definitely counting on Kazuma to do just that. I'm pretty sure that's why Kazuma decided to be civil instead. It's like back in the beginning when Majima was beating on him with his umbrella, expecting Kazuma to punch back. Kazuma seems to enjoy rejecting Majima's attempts to provoke him.
He did actually, Yakuza 2 back in the ps2 days and trust me, for all the shit he was thrown by the mayor player of the club he was working in, pulling off three million yen ina single night from the owner of the best hostess club in the entire town is quite the feat for Kiryu.
I love Kiryu playing along just to have a nice, causal conversation with Majima. They don’t need to fight right now, they can just sit down and talk, and considering his imprisonment I’m sure that’s something Kiryu missed being able to do with people.
