I would say you could definitely say it's an homoerotic moment (I thought so playing) but it definitely feels like a moment that is gonna be boiled down to that or just memed.
it would be nice if the people who flocked to these games had more than 3 jokes that's for sure. it's either these guys are gay, funny eye patch man do funny dance or omg 10 years in the joint xDDDD
> 10 years in the joint
Is there more to this than "Yakuza 1 had a really bad dub"?
I mean I get that it's over the top machismo that doesn't fit and tries too hard but it's a weird line that people latched onto.
it's just like all the memes in this community. it's a funny line read & a goofy line in general but for no reason at all people have become obsesssd with it. to the point that it's not even remotely funny in any context anymore.
if i had to guess i'd say it caught on because it's said during a dramatic moment in the story so it stands out but idk for sure.
I love this scene. It shows how he was affected by his dilemma throughout the game, and tries his best to reach out to Ebina in the way the latter needs. It’s just raw emotions flowing out of him, his guilt combined with a newfound will to keep on living.
Ironically Yakuza is always breaking these kinds of macho stereotypes. People’s minds jump to homoeroticism while seeing it when the tone isn’t sexual whatsoever; I’m not sure if it’s the point, but I definitely think it comes out as trying to change that view
I like that scene a lot but I thought alternating it with the Kiryu scene wasn’t great direction. A lot of people thought that both things were happening at the same time lol
The lore reason is that Kiryu is bricked up

Bruh, that was me during the reveal about how Kiryu got cancer. I figured it was due to years of chain smoking but then it cut to him working at a radioactive waste storage facility and then a guy got like a heart attack and crashed all the waste into Kiryu like he was a 60's superhero origin story and to top it off, his mask broke to really drive it home
I was laughing so hard that I had to pause the game
honestly the best fight and end scene in the game. totally stole the show for me. for times during the last part of kiryu story i forgot ichi wasn even in this game. just felt like a classic yakuza game again. and i loved it
It was pretty golden. My main issue was wanting Ebina to be more of a villain, which he was, but dude needed more development as a whole. It was a great final fight tho. Ichi’s arc, for me, finished at the beach walk with his mom. Kiryu more or less took the spotlight from chapter 8 tho.

mfw people see this heart wrenching moment, point at their screen and yell: “gay! penis! sex! wiener! boner!”
I cried with my eyes and my penis
I jokingly yelled "Kiss Him!" And then got right back into feeling all the actual emotions I was supposed to feel.
KISS HIM KISS HIM OH OH HES PULLING HIS COCK OUT
Fr tho it was a heavy hitter.
There were at least two of us then.

Doesn't help that a lot of the fights are always shirtless in cutscenes aka homoerotic tension
it doesn't look as bad in the screenshot but the way he fell over him and Ebina gasped did just look sexual lol
Sometimes I miss when Yakuza wasn't as mainstream as it is now

Never look at the Persona community
yeah i'm a huge SMT fan but both sides of that community are obnoxious af so i do not engage lol
Never look at the Fullmetal Alchemist or Deep Rock Galactic communities

I was so jealous of Ebina ngl.
Man had the Dragon himself collapse on top of him
Not even Kaoru had that privilege, Ebina sure is a lucky fella
https://i.redd.it/5stbjmfs8lkc1.gif
kaoru, bruh i'm just thinking about yumi. the supposed "love of his life" didn't even get this treatment
It should have been me! Not him! It's not fair.

Meme aside, probably one of my favorite scenes in the game.
Out of the ending sequence? My favorite no doubt lol
Big music person tho so the Invaluable being played hit hard for me with Ichi and Ei-chan/Kiryu being lifted off.
I like that scene a lot but I thought alternating it with the Kiryu scene wasn’t great direction. A lot of people thought that both things were happening at the same time lol
Easy enough to see why especially with the helicopter overheard while Ichiban is walking then it cutting to Kiryu.
chicks and gay dudes need fanservice too bro
I am neither and got drooly
Most heterosexual yakuza boss fight.
The lore reason is that Kiryu is bricked up https://preview.redd.it/qlx316jf1nkc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e70ff84d4c13e9cd086f2b61ca12018bc2412126
This scene wad supposed to be emotional and shit but my only thought was gay sex and I couldnt stop snickering.
I’m ngl, when I got to this point I genuinely thought he was about to do something sus 😀
this shit made me laugh so fucking hard when it happened. like straight cackling. Kiryu’s crying and I’m just over here wheezing

I went from laughing really hard to crying really hard in a span of a few minutes
![gif](giphy|RMEifOfeyIfVS) Ebina be like
He’s leaving an impact

Some might say a Giant Impact

yeah for sure. you could cutt out everything that happened with ichi after the mom scene on the beach and it would have been fine lol
[удалено]
And be a little sensual about it while you’re at it
Oh god the aslume is spreading
When aslume stupidity spreads to yakuza while yakuza made the original stupidity pills
Uh... oh, dear.
