Osana Progress and Yakuza Thoughts

[@YandereDev]

Most of my videos are about game development; it's probably safe for me to presume that most of my viewers come to my channel to see game dev stuff, and not to hear me talk about a yakuza character for over 10 minutes. I wish that all of my videos could be about exciting game development progress, but sometimes it's not possible. When I'm unable to deliver a development video, I try my best to produce something fun and interesting instead. I really enjoy talking about the yakuza character, so that's the direction I went in for this video. This doesn't mean that the yakuza is my top priority, or that I'm going to shove the yakuza in your face all the time; it just means that it was time to make a video, so I chose a topic that I'd enjoy talking about. If you're disappointed about this, I'm very sorry. Please wait for my next video, which is almost certainly guaranteed to be development-focused.

[@nslater1388]

As far as the Yakuza goes, I think the last idea with a subtle blend of the first two is the best way to go, offering a little more depth. It could have started with him thinking the people he was killing were scum, then as it became more difficult to find corrupt people, the Yakuza's boss grew more and more angry with the Yakuza's lack of success in finding 'organ donors' and remarks "If you can't get me what I need, maybe your brother can." So the Yakuza starts killing innocents, fooling himself into believing they are bad people by focusing on their quirks. This leads him to feeling nothing but guilt and shame, the only thing driving him forward is his desire to provide for his kid brother.

[@xbudgiesxforiifex3483]

Hm, nice idea! Maybe Yandere Dev will do it! :)

[@cookiedough5055]

Nice approach. Making the problem multi-dimensional always beats choosing one single-dimensional problem that drives the Yakuza to what he does

And you can keep the Yakuza in modern day. This is a videogame about a serial killer girl who constantly gets away with murder. It's not meant to be entirely believable or realistic.

[@star-manrainbowstar336]

I disagree. It's not supposed to be entire realisting game wise, but YanDev is trying it to be accurate to modern times.

[@angelawhiteman2828]

N Slater I AGREE!

[@ForeverMeexo]

I agree

[@unoreversecard8129]

True

[@user-up9hy9he9n]

N Slater I rather suggest that Yakuza can be a info-chan type of character in the 80s

[@remoraidz]

Modern yakuza is much more preferred by a lot of people. The reason for this is simple: historical accuracy isn't necessarily needed. A solution for the problem, if it's still a problem anyway, could be that Yandere-chan's mother made sure the yakuza still has influence around their town solely because they helped her get to her senpai. This allows Yandere-chan to have a perfectly valid reason, not to mention the pressure would be ON for the yakuza because they need to stay alive and thriving.

[@cmela9523]

sure, exactly

[@deactivated6046]

*CLAP CLAP* Beautiful.. Just.. Beautiful.

[@DragoOwl]

I like the idea of Yan-Chans mother having a connection to the Yakuza, maybe she helped them in a way and now they owe her a debt, since she knew that her daughter would end up a Yandere maybe she used this debt to have the Yakusa help Yan-Chan which is how they came into contact in the first place

[@Wellnseddich]

I would definitely put Mr. Yakuza in normal mode. Even if there's not as many as there used to be, they still do exist. They seem to think of themselves as business people, and crime is business. I don't think guilt plays a role in it if you just view it as business. Besides you get used to violence if you witness it a lot.. And they are not just bad, they have helped communities in the past, after storms/floods for example. Missing fingers are an indicator as cutting of a finger is a common form of punishment. And they're like a family, calling each other brother, uncle etc. The saddest outcome for this particular guy would probably be his younger brother finding out about his "business" and rejecting him.. So there's no real purpose to live anymore. Very sad. ... Also, I'd totally like one yakuza x yandere ending in which she realized towards the end that her true love is not senpai. They could be a yakuza couple or she gets him to quit and try to lead a normal life.

[@shiranaia]

I think that the yakuza would be implemented wonderfully into the modern game. Perhaps the decline in yakuza in modern times is why the yakuza’s boss has such high standards-and such an immense punishment for not living up to those standards. If members such as this are declining, there would be much higher demand for gruesome services, and for those services to be kept secret. Maybe the stress of losing his high ranked position could be another factor in his stress. Nonetheless, I think that the resources would be great for implementing the yakuza in normal yandere simulator.

Even though the idea of the Yakuza being available only in 1980s mode is more logical, i think that the Yakuza existing in the original game is going to be a more interesting experience and the changes that you have in mind are fitting the story so well.

[@clownbites2290]

Alexandra Hamilton I agree. This game is gruesome and harsh so it only makes sense that eliminations are too

[@archsteel7]

Or, maybe it makes more sense for the Yakuza to be contracting work to a teenage girl BECAUSE they're on the decline.

[@Nightnight226]

Archsteel yes I totally agree! I'd love to see the story happening in the modern game plot and I believe info-chan has many differences from the Yakuza character. I don't see a particular reason why any of those should, let's say, "bore" anyone if they co-exists. Especially since the Yakuza has his own plotline that could connect to the delinquent opponent. Perhaps the way of interaction with the two has some resemblance but the practicality of what each one could do for you is completely different.

[@ellaella970]

That's pretty true!

[@lillyheartlocket433]

Archsteel yes that would make much more sense

[@50shadesofred9]

[@jonathancw2948]

Here's a good question. Not aiming this at YanDev, it's more like a "fanbase discussion". If Akademi High was a prestigious and expensive school with students from very rich families, why did the Yakuza's younger brother attend Akademi High out of all places, when their family needed money the most out of anything?

[@wowrazor388]

I just wanted to say that even though the Yakuza were more powerful back in the 80's, they are still very present today. They still have over 53,000 members across all the various groups, and are one of the most powerful mafia-like groups in the world, and they're largest faction, the Yamaguchi-Gumi, make twice as much money in a year as the largest drug cartel in Mexico (6.6 billion as opposed to 3 billion). So having a Yakuza character in the modern day Yandere Sim wouldn't be a problem. Also, I just really like the idea of the Yakuza character so I think he should definitely be in the normal game as well as the 80's mode.

[@secrfidr]

[@HarleyQuinn-zn5pk]

I agree, I think maybe he should have Yakuza mode in the modern day version of yandere sim but have it as something you can turn off on the main menu for those that don't want to use it, that way people can use it if they want but it doesn't affect the story too much if you don't.

[@Aritso]

I love the idea of the 80's mode personally, I hope that it does get implemented. Specially because, after all this time, a new character (new as in newer than Yandere Chan herself as a game character) will feel much more mysterious and less than a game character everyone knows and considers as a popular-known-semi meme- character. The idea of what happened in the past and playing with a new character whose intention might be very similar, yet being in a different era and therefore with different mechanics really appeals to me and also adds more significance to the game's story.

[@Crowdedaudience]

[@Shadowtail]

Those of you who refuse to utilize the Yakuza due to what he actually does to his victims don't realize what this game is about; who Yandere-Chan really is. As I like to quote Yandev, "You haven't forgotten about Yandere-Chan's TRUE personality, have you?"

[@astraldirectrix]

Shadowtail She's not completely soulless now than she was earlier in the game's development; she has a limited emotional spectrum that only Senpai's presence can rectify. Whatever her reaction to the Yakuza's methodology of victim disposal may be depends on her morality, which depends on the player.

[@davidbowen8456]

I agree with both of you, but if we really limit Yandere Chan's true potential, we'd also be making her lose a lot of character points. Yandere is such an interesting character to play because she literally has no morals, or at least you can choose that. Yanderechan would definitely be capable of selling chicks to slavery

[@molly.bagel6]

Just because Yandere-chan doesn't feel many emotions doesn't mean she wouldn't have a problem with the Yakuza carting away the rivals. I'm not talking about morals. I'm saying that Yandere-chan's main objective is to get rid of her rivals as cleanly and efficiently as possible. Using the Yakuza would make that goal much more difficult to obtain because of how many students would need to be kidnapped for each rival. It would also make it more difficult for the player- I can imagine Yandere-Chan befriending her rivals or matchmaking them or killing them herself, but I just can't see her helping abduct a crapload of students just to get rid of one rival. It just doesn't make sense to me at all.

[@cussundriakneal9904]

Molly Boyke What don't get what a yandere is, do you? Have you even seen Miraia Nikki? Or 'Future Diary'? There's a reason why Yuno Gasai is the quern of Yandere's, because she's EXACTLY what people think of when they hear 'Yandere'. They do feel, just not as normal people do. They don't get reasoning or guilt, all they care about is themselves and what they desire, which is usually ONE other person. And they are willing to do WHATEVER it takes to make that person theirs and ONLY theirs. Killing the person's entire family, all their friends, every person why even ASSOCIATES with their special someone. And if the Yandere is crazy enough, they'll even KILL their special someone, so that NO ONE can have them EVER. And then they'll usually end up killing themselves, because they 'can't live without them'. Do you see what all of this is? Madness. Yandere's are crazy. They are crazy psychopaths who have lost all reasoning and their grasp on reality. So.... why the fucking fuck would they care about what their actions did to innocent people around their age? They. WOULDN'T. And don't. As long as there are lesser people around senpai, the better for Yandere-chan, because she doesn't fedl guilt. She killed a kitten, because she knows it was horrific and WRONG, but did it in an attemp to feel something, and failed. So why.. would sending teenagers to be either sex slaves or unwilling organ donnars be the thing to make her feel guilt all of a sudden? She knows what she's doing is wrong, she just doesn't care. Because she only feels thing relating to Senpai. Which probably usually consists of Love, Jealousy, Fear, and Anger. Not a lot of good emotions in there, huh?

[@kittykat6079]

I think the Yakuza should be in both versions, but the Yakuza in the current time is less powerful than the one in the 1980s mode, since we have Info Chan it would make it more balanced. I love the idea of reforming his sibling for favors, and I love the ransom idea.

[@spectrelex3051]

KittyKat607 same lol

[@thedrcrow5841]

[@lizzieholloway9787]

This! ^.^ This would be so cool!

[@IbiActive]

KittyKat607 I like your idea!

[@maca673]

Historically, people who join the Yakuza are a part of the burakumin caste, which roughly translates into “hamlet people”. These guys are considered to be the untouchables of Japan due to the fact that their ancestors worked in meat packing houses and leather tanning. They can’t get jobs since their names are on a burakumin register, are discriminated against by virtually everyone, and they’re virtually locked into their “caste” for life. The Yakuza movement was born out of these people who desired a community or brotherhood of like-minded individuals. So it makes sense for Yakuza the character to try and give his younger brother a chance he wouldn’t otherwise get since he’s inked up and too deep within the organization.

[@fayev1360]

The caste system hasn't been around for a long time its only in certain places in asia usually around india

[@wtora777]

I personally LOVE the yakuza idea. It adds so much flavor to a game. The character seems kind of mysterious since he is a yakuza. But the way you portrayed the character gives the story of LoveSick a lot more background. It will make you want to replay the game over and over again just to catch things you might have missed. If you don't have characters such as these then what story is there? What in a game would pick up your interest? Honestly I love how different the rivals are...And out of every idea you have spoken about ever since 2015 (I don't remember) I haven't disliked one. You are such a smart guy and your ideas have a lot of emotion. I think the ideas you are trying to pitch out are like the confidants. You have a nice array of characters to choose and hangout with in P5 that will help you make it through the game. And the best part is you can choose who you want. It is good to dislike a character to- it probably means you are into a game! And I must say adding small characters and methods gives the game a lot of well..flavor! You need the sweet characters you love and the salty characters you hate..But when you make your perfect byte then the game is awesome. So in my opinion you should have the yakuza!It is honestly to bad that the only thing I dislike about the game is that it is too schoolgirlish to me..But I bet with your EXTRAORDINARY programming skills you will be able to implement more creative elimination methods and elements that would catch a readers eye..Another thing I dislike..Is the assets. With this amazing game idea- I think the assests and models you use are a little to goofy..But that isn't on you- that is on the creators.

[@froggie7745]

ToraShiMi damn that comment is long...I shouldn't have pressed read more...

[@misc.9927]

I would agree with you. The game has a very childish look for the dark plot, but YandereDev has already spoken about that, and he doesn't like it either. I think that the Yakuza should be desperate for business and that's why he's willing to work with Yan-Chan, so that way the Yakuza could be in the Modern version of the game.

[@clearlynotaneldritchhorror8798]

I don't mind it being kinda school girlish in art style to contrast with how dark the game can get later on. I've seen other games that get pretty dark use a misleading art style to contrast their dark tone. But I do think the game 100% NEEDS new models to maybe make it look more like how he suggested in a previous video and also so he can do more with each character

[@evanoelle5799]

Yanderedev, I can't tell you how proud I am of you with your development of yandere simulator. I have been watching your videos for a few years now and I am so impressed with your work ethic and love to your job; your progress is phenomenal. I love that you have truly thought of everything with this game in such creative ways that continue to blow my mind with every point you make about even the littlest of game decisions. I am always so excited to see a new video of yours come up in my subscription box! Thank you for making such a revolutionary game concept and I wish you so much success in the future. xo

Really love all your ideas, Mostly the yakuza and the relationship with his brother,you can totally see he atleast cares about someone very much And the 1980's mode looks awsome for me This game has developed so much during the years and it's the best one yet

[@IbiActive]

Zeth I totally agree

[@crickett3536]

Agreed! And the final theory on why the Yakuza guy does everything (the twisted love of his brother) would be an excellent avenue to explore thematically, given the themes of twisted love you're creating!

[@applesauce1018]

Yandere Dev, I've been following the development of Yandere Simulator for quite some time now and all I can say is that The Yakuza idea is one of the most brilliant ideas you have planned for the game. It finally shows the society that Yandere Simulator is something that was always meant to be taken seriously (other than Lovesick mode). Also, you have stated in the video that many people disliked the Yakuza idea because of what he does to his victims but honest speaking here, JUST IGNORE THEM. I'm not saying that you must ignore people's suggestions but there are people in the community that want this guy in the game beacause of how we really like his intentions. Going into the life of crime all because of love? That's actually beautiful. Also, Yandere Dev, the choice is yours. You are the brains of the game and you know what's right and wrong for the game. I'm always supporting you and the game. Stay Awesome.

[@jjjjjjjjjjjmmmmmmm4461]

Applesauce 101 your right its a great idea but half of the supporters only want the yakuza because he's "hot" sadly

[@collectorofmyst2107]

I actually believe that the Yakuza should be implemented (and not just because he looks badass, Bendy...), despite the fact that some of the ideas behind him going against my morals, thus meaning I likely wouldn't use them. But either way, I like it when games have wider options for the player to take, and as you said, this does add a much more serious undertone to the game.

[@catlady9459]

I agree with you, i fucking hate these kiddy fans who want the game to be a dating sim.

[@jjjjjjjjjjjmmmmmmm4461]

[@Baron_Alice_Stares]

I really want the yakuza in regular mode for a couple reasons. One, we all know the ending to 1980's mode. Ayano's mother wins and the reporter's life is destroyed. I love the idea of a yakuza ending. Something like, yandere chan gets senpai in the end but helps the yakuza kill his bosses, making him the top dog, and her his personal hitman, leaving senpai the husband of the most badass killing machine on the planet. Second, I want 1980's mode to be hard as balls. Adding the yakuza would make it slightly easier, and I don't want the player to have any outside help. Just your own wits and weapons. Third, I want the yakuza because it makes kidnapping so much more useful. Not only can you do something with your kidnapped victims other than make them mind slaves, but you can kidnap someone while one victim is already in your basement. In the end, I support the full implementation of the Yakuza into the main mode of Yandere Simulator.

Almost everyone knows that, obviously a game that took 3 years to develop is going to be paid, but you have to understand that there are people who can not pay it, because of economic problems (probably the majority lives in the EE.UU and does not know what that is, or even how it feels) or some other reason. And do not say "Those people, get a job" because there are very bad countries economically. But I did not want to be a SJW, I just wanted to remember that ...

[@AveryCF]

"I don't want to use the Yukuza if in game, because it's too gross/messed up." Guys, the whole game theme is generally fucked up. Killing people, kidnapping girls, bullying to death, etc. etc.? Really, if you're not okay with such a... Colorful game that breaks the bounds of common games today, then Lovesick/Yandere Simulator just likely isn't the game you should be playing. While everything is made clear you WILL have a choice on if you want to use him or not along with the many other ways to get rid of a rival/someone else, this doesn't mean the whole idea of the Yakuza should be completely discouraged because it's so damn dark. YanDev has stated several times that he wants the game to break the bounds of what might be the common norm in most games. Perhaps this is just my own thoughts that isn't shared with many others, but I really don't think complaining about something being too "Gruesome" is exactly what fits for a game like this. It's MEANT to be fucked up, Yandere-Chan ISN'T a normal girl lol. Barely anyone is normal but she's on the psychopathic bend. Please just keep this in mind next time you might claim something is too fucked up lol. ;3; EDIT: Oh my god! I just posted this eight hours ago and my jaw dropped at all the likes! x'D Thank you all so much! I was just speaking my mind so glad I didn't look like a fool after all. I swear to god i'm never this popular on shit (*Coughs at my Deviant Art and other medias*), even a simple, single like makes me smile. So- 176 OF THEM?! You guys are awesome, thanks. ;3; (Oh and- happy killing, or... However you wish to remove your rivals lol.)

[@AveryCF]

Not a Snake I think you're missing the point though, unless you're agreeing with what i'm saying? You make an excellent point yourself but completely discouraging the idea of a Yakuza is unnecessary, that's what i'm trying to say. Yes, you don't have to kill to win the "game". (When it becomes an official game you can "Win", I mean.) Yes, you can even play past/around the Yakuza in future game play as YanDev's made very clear, it's on the players choice of personalized actions. Yes, it's been pointed out a steady school population would be necessary for the game so a Yakuza course without death (Or very few deaths) would be ideal. What i'm SAYING is towards the people who don't want him in the game at all, period. Killing or no killing. I'm just pointing out that he can still co-exist in the game without killing if it discomforts them. I'm not sure if you were agreeing with me or trying to make a point? So I tried to express myself further if that makes sense? I've been following the games development sense very early on, so trust me, you don't need to express the ideals YanDev has made very clear, time and time again. I know he's trying his best to deliver a game he's proud of that others would enjoy as well, i'm just trying to point out to those who want to play a gruesome game denying what could be a gruesome or just useful game factor, just doesn't make sense. That's like saying "I want to decapitate someone- without killing them." That... That doesn't add up. x'D What YOU'RE saying, (From what i'm getting) is "I want to wound someone, but not lethally." That, that makes sense. I guess it's kind of a confusing topic seeing i'm not all too sure how to express myself but all i'm trying to say is "A gruesome game will have some dark features, but that doesn't mean you have to remove said feature to still come out with a game." Some people are agents the Yakuza who has been portrayed to be able to do "The gruesome", which is why they don't want him even though the game is "Dark". I'm voting for the idea of a Yakuza to stay, killing or not. Does... Anything i'm saying make any relative sense? Because I feel like i'm repeating myself without the message being clear whatsoever.

[@Redflameforest1729]

I like it where you have multiple ways to go through things but it has to boil down to the basics; Yan-chan isn't capable of feeling emotions normally. She wants to feel these emotions that her mother talks about and when she finds the one who unleashes these emotions inside her, she wants to do EVERYTHING IN HER POWER TO KEEP HIM TO HERSELF! Why can't people see that? Yan-chan isn't normal but people want this and this and that to make it all cute and sparkly without violence. GROW UP! Violence is all around you and you want to stick your damned heads in the ground while saying "LALALALALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" Granted, some people will get offended by this but take into consideration that I'm merely pointing out facts. YanDev wants to give us as many means of eliminating rivals in the game as possible but with people complaining is just like rusty gears grating together that seem to bust any minute. But, I do like how Yandev thinks. Instead of trying to give kidnapped girls or classmates to the Yakuza for the organ harvest, the kidnapping for ransom money is a good way to go. On a different topic, the 80's mode seems ok but the for the Yakuza to be just in that mode would rather...boring but kind of fun.

[@imjustsomebunny]

I think the idea of the Yakuza in the modern day isn't so unrealistic. Just because 'studies' say they've been in a decline doesn't mean anything. The Yakuza is the Japanese mafia. With today's technology, being able to hide yourself isn't exactly hard. Besides, how would anyone even know they've been declining? Call me crazy, but I don't think anyone is just going to waltz out into the street saying, "Oh, yeah, y'know, I'm just part of the mafia. Killed your neighbors. Howdy!" Seriously. I just find it a _little_ hard to believe they're really "declining" now.

[@Darkmirror7]

We are also talking about a fictional world in a videogame aswell. A world where the police goes to school to ask around if people have seen a missing person, and when they dont find any clues about what happened to them they call it a day and the case is never touched upon again. People are playing a emotionless killer for fucks sake, not everything has to be super realistic.

[@Dummma]

[@arcadia_758]

Bayley Rowell YES! THANKS YOU!

[@HeyImLucious]

The Yakuza rose to prominence after WWII ended when large proportions of Japan's citizens were living in poverty and the government's power had been decentralized. Food, income, safety, and a rigid code of honor- they were destined to explode in size and power. But they *are* in decline, for the same reason the American mafias are in decline- there isn't really a need for them anymore. There are no prohibitions on bad-but-commonly-used-items (drinking, smoking, etc.) so the black market has lost a large customer base. The government authority has been reasserted over the country forcing the Yakuza/mafia to withdraw or else face a firefight that they simply cannot win. And finally poverty simply isn't as prevalent in these countries anymore- and those who are suffering in poverty have many more options now than just turning to crime.

[@TheFrostedfirefly]

I'm a fan of 1980's mode for the difficulty and maybe a few cosmetic changes in the future other than playing as Yandere-chan's mum but I think the Yakuza should still be in both. In 1980's mode, the Yakuza should just be harder to access but even more rewarding in the long term. tbh, if I made this game, I'd rather the Yakuza guy actually turned out to be Yandere-chan's dad and didn't want YANDERE-CHAN to to pursue a life of crime and twisted games.

[@ataleofcoffee842]

While I think that historical accuracy is a good thing to keep in mind, if you implement the 80's mode and establish that Yandere's mother was able to get into contact with a Yakuza, it's not that far of a leap in logic that Yandere Chan could in her own time period as well.She has more tools and more available to her to find a Yakuza member, despite their decline in modern times. And while it might be harder to access them than it would be in 80's mode, I think it would still make sense to have him. It would likely be more difficult than in 80's mode of course, as a current yakuza member would be more careful in keeping a lower profile, but it would be more interesting to try to unlock him and gain his services. As long as he was challenging enough to unlock to balance out the decline in modern day I think it would fit just fine. I think the hostage idea is a fantastic one. We've already seen the one with Kokona's story, with Masume Ronshaku, so it fits thematically, while taking out the less desirable ambiguous and likely horrible fate, and again balances out the need to have students continue coming to school. On that note though, I wonder how kidnapped students will react on their return to school, depending on their personality and how well they handle such a traumatic event. More over, I am curious about how much the kidnap victim can recall. I suppose that depends on the drug used to knock them out so they can't recall as much, but if kidnap victims get together in some form of support of one another, how likely is it they will talk and slowly piece together any similarities to their kidnapping? Would these similarities then point them towards Yandere Chan? Are some more likely to figure this out than others? Or are there specific students who will shy away from most people all together? Something worth considering. As far as Yakuza backstory goes, I think any of the three presented work fine. If I were to put it down to preference though, I think the first option of taking out corrupt people, while interestingly despicable on Yandere Chan's side is interesting and requires more from the player, it's also a bit...unrealistic? Out of the three options, it rings less true to a Yakuza operative to me. However, if it were coupled with his little brother's view of the world, then that might more sense. His younger brother finds out about a corrupt cop or business and complains to his brother, and big brother Yakuza sees a way to make a mint while taking something that upsets his younger brother out of the world. This would be more in combination with backstories one and two, but would make a bit more sense thematically. You could even combine all three in that sense, if Yakuza's main mission in life is to ensure his brother's safety and happiness, then anything upsetting to him, or endangering him would be his main priority, all while working his way up to offing his boss who is the main threat to the younger brother. In this sense there are more options on how Yandere Chan might operate and work with the Yakuza. Having the Yakuza help her eliminate rivals that could cause the younger brother harm or trouble could be one option, (common enemy) or having Yandere chan be the good influence on the brother, leading the Yakuza to reward her with favors, or to help supply them with hostages for funds to buy allies further up in the Yakuza to off the Yakuza's boss. Many options available, but those are just my thoughts. Overall I love the idea of the Yakuza being implemented, and I would love to see this character make it into the game in either mode. I do think it would be funny if you ended up with both of them, and the 80's mode Yakuza ended up being the modern day Yakuza's boss. Thanks for the updates, and for all the hard work you put into this. It's been amazing to watch the development of this game.

[@kaywelder]

I agree!!

[@lala-zk1pw]

OK ok... LONGEST COMMENT EVER!!

[@Icetail0912]

I like all of this! Personally, though, I like the idea of him just blocking out or becoming numb to the horror and doing everything for his brother's sake- if he were to become a significant character it'd provide some interesting parallels to Ayano herself. (Not to mention, the "horrible boss" option just makes me want to be able to help him out on my Full Pacifist Run so he can be happy, because I'm a total softie for characters in bad situations.)

[@geromy3154]

Fans: "I don't want the Yakuza in the game, it's too gruesome." Game Features: Dismemberment, panty shots, weapons, gore, easter eggs, killing a cat (half of you whined about that last time), ruining somebody's reputation, and a bunch of other shit.

[@Redflameforest1729]

Ain't that not the definition of dark and gruesome? Yandev can go a lot darker if he wanted to but all the whiny complainers would be complaining the game is too dark for them. Some people, like me, love the dark and gruesome things that would possibly make someone hurl. But meh, Yandev trying to cater to two different paths here and its hard to please both at the same time.

[@TK-bo5kj]

+Striker Janners AGRRED! I am really tired of THOSE people. Why can't this game go for the blood-thirsty way? Why can't YAKUZA just be purely evil? Why can't people play this game just for enjoying killing and kidnapping? THIS GAME IS MEANT TO BE DARK. WANT TO PLAY PEACEFULLY? FUCK OFF.

[@secondhandgaladriel6106]

I don't know if I'm 100% with the idea of 1980 mode. I mean, it sounds cool, but I want all of those elements in present time. On the Yandere Simulator website, I saw the mother and father character AND the "reporter". I figured out that that meant that her mother was also a yandere. I really liked that character idea, and again, that "reporter/journalist" (idk), was a cool idea and story. I wish that it was somehow implemented in the current game, and also that both Info-chan and the yakuza would co-exist, because I personally like them both and think it's a great idea. I like the Yakuza story and the fact that there are other things to do and find out, other than just sabotaging and killing people. Besides, when you think about it Info-chan and the Yakuza are very different. My point is, that I wish that somehow you could put the story of the mother and the Yakuza, in the present.

[@jeffreyastudillo8851]

His ideas kind of contradict each other, the 1980s mode bit just threw off the other segments of the video, especially Osoro and the guidance counselor, things like smartphones, of course, shouldn't exist in the 1980s as it wasn't invented yet, but the delinquent old haircuts and popularity of the Yakuza should be something more common and particular to Akademi high and its surroundings rather than focusing on the rest of Japan

[@secondhandgaladriel6106]

I think the 1980's mode would be cool as a dlc, but like I said, I wish the yakuza would be in the present

[@shadowwolfcat13]

The Yakuza character in the 80s should be the boss of the current Yakuza character, with his personality being a chaotic evil with hunger for power. The current Yakuza character should be a mixture of your suggestions - a man who finds a reason in the organization's actions, but feels remorse when taking up jobs he finds no redemption in. He should be calm, but not emotionless, composed, but not a rock, and should make players question their sense of justice.

[@vidmizz]

I like the idea of an 80s mode but I think you should make it into a DLC after you finish the base game. This way you would be able to flesh it out more, with greater detail, and it wouldn't consume your time finishing the base game.

YES I WANT 1980 MODE THAT IS SUCH A GOOD IDEA

[@blanksky3342]

What I want is for there to be *more staff*: (1) A real school has over 20 teachers regardless of the school size. Yes that would require more students (and an expansion for more classroom), but overall, this will make it feel more like a school! (2) In the morning, NOT all teachers are WRITING LESSON PLANS, some have to MONITOR the halls to -make sure no yanderes take their senpai- ensure that NOBODY does something INCONSPICUOUS; (3) there are teachers who BEFRIEND STUDENTS and grant them special ACCESS to stuff such as a _LOCKED_ JANITOR CLOSET with a mop and bucket; (4) THE JANITOR! Have a janitor that MONITORS halls, bathrooms, and classrooms in search of a mess to clean such as -spilled blood- fallen trash cans (distraction), water spills (slippery floor), or lost/misplaced -weapons- items!

[@dayglass]

Blank Sky Too many students would give some people lag and crash

[@blanksky3342]

i̥ͦd̥ͦi̥ͦo̥ͦt̥ͦ D̥ͦe̥ͦg̥ͦḁͦs̥ͦ -Love the detail around the letters- Yeah, I myself don't have a computer that would be able to handle all that, but it would still be a great aspect to have in the game! Don't you think so?

[@dayglass]

Blank Sky -thank you!- It would be great! I do agree.

[@Brrocklon]

Some japanese schools would have a Public Morals Committee, composed of students who would perform this monitoring. Others the Student Coucil may have some influence to perform this task. Its not uncommon to have Japanese schools with students running some things, like keeping their own classrooms clean. Yanderedev's school actually has something like that with the photography club who would be the "scooby doo squad" investigating the school. I also can see the rival Megami installing a similar system to the ones I mentioned.

[@ShinyShilla]

Blank Sky "a real school has 20 teachers" I always went in fake schools??????

[@SkeleSukei]

If Yandere-chan ended up joining that organization...I would love an ending like that, it's like you've been saying, the game is really meant to fit to the player's actions so if someone is unhappy with something they deem 'too gruesome' its all too easy for them not to do it. Besides, all these different twists are just making this game sound more and more appealing, especially to play several times, less repetitive and more replayed for all the different ways the story can change while still saying the same in your fundamental goals; that's the marking of a truly great game.

[@magic_ninja4952]

[@spongefanman]

yan dev, i absolutely love all these yakuza ideas, and am down with anyway that can bring the yakuza into the game, ps it is so amazing of how far you have come

[@luravavra9798]

Please don't move the yakuza idea to a "mode". I think the idea is brilliant because with all of the missing students, no one would think it's the yakuza because they don't have that strong reputation like they used to.

[@skyhope5105]

Yes! Great idea! It would also make sense why they would go after students and that would increase their reputation. Which explain why their services get expensive.

[@Maddie-he6hw]

I 100% agree with that. I really don't want the Yakuza to be moved to a different mode, I feel like it would be more enjoyable with him in it just hiw the game is now.

[@curtyfries2304]

That is an amazing idea, because I agree that I'm not fond with the 1980 mode. I think i agree with the fact that he might be manipulated into thinking some of the students had it coming.

[@Galdraz]

Yeah I don't like the 1980's mode idea also

[@Alice-xp9pm]

right!!

[@calmmind7619]

YandereDev The Yakuza was actually really interesting. No matter what you post, it shows that you really are putting a lot of effort, changes and improvement in the game! Keep it up YandereDev! ❤❤

[@nobinary2296]

B-But I liked the Yakuza the way it was. People need to realize it's a videogame, and a lot of these kinds of games have Mafia groups or gangs of some sort. It's also based around anime logic, so I don't get why people are making such a big deal out of it. It's great in my opinion. I hope he doesn't add an extra game mode. Please let the Yakuza be normal game play.

[@HentaiSweetie]

[@Wish-pi6xz]

Having 80's mode would be cool but I don't think it is necessary, I think having the yakuza in modern day is fine. It is a fictional universe where the yakuza could not be on such a decline. Personal I like the second motives for the yakuza character for two reason. One it gives an ending to Yandere (I forgot the her name) which would fit in the theme. After working with them for a while and help killing the boss, she become the new boss. The second one is I like it better for the character then the other ones. I think having hostages would make sense but there should be an consequences for doing it too much. Maybe there should be more security if to many kids are kidnap or some start leaving. Thank you for the clearing up my ideas about 80's mode (some more nicely then others).

[@Ewafingmyth]

Brian 80's mode is totally an idea for a sequel though

[@L.R.R.H413]

yea 80's mode isn't necessary but i feel if done right it could add more plot into the game but i like the idea of the yakuza being in ayano's normal game better Maybe 80's mode can be a different ending for ayano, like remember the tapes that are hidden around the school? How about every time she finds them it turns kinda into a flashback of her mother's story and in the flashbacks you play as the mother a little bit in the 80's and if you collect them all then you get a new ending maybe its called "reliving the past", "finding the truth" or "it runs in the family" lol but you dont have to collect them because it's not mandatory for the game and this way it add more to the replay value and overall story without having to work in a new mode :D

[@XRawRKittehX]

So Yakuza kidnaps are too morbid ? There shouldn't be a restriction to this type of content, you are literally a schoolgirl killing people.I like the Yakuza idea

[@jeffreyastudillo8851]

The idea of harvesting their organs and selling them on the black market is too morbid

[@ZatannaZataraGrayson]

DXZQtionR * And torturing your victims into insanity and forcing them to kill their best friend isn't too morbid? Y'all's fucking priorities are shot.

[@NANA-me9tj]

DXZQtionR * But killing your love rivals isn't?

[@Guapo_Oppai]

DXZQtionR * This game shows our protagonist dismembering teenagers. Why is implied disembowelment suddenly too much?

[@kouriichi]

But its something that does still happen in real life. Its nowhere out of the realm of believability. And if doing it is too morbid, then you can simply not do it. A lot of the additions that have been added to the game have been those to avoid being "morbid and evil", such as not having to actually kill anybody. Also, if the organs are being sold/given to sick and dying people (like Yandere-dev alluded to), then its less morbid than just killing them. The organs are going to save lives in the end. This does make it less evil than just being a rampant murderer, since if you stick somebody into an incinerator you've done less good than the Yakuza would have. In the end, the person will be dead either way, instead their organs are going to be helping people, even if its at a cost. Or you can ransom them so they dont die. Or ruin their reputation so senpai wont date them. Or befriend them so you can go a non-cruel route. How morbid the game is happens to be the players decision to make, and thats the sign of a well design game. Everyone can die, or no one can. And everything in-between.

[@ellisisland2290]

I think the back story of the Yakuza is great! The idea of helping his little brother, instead of killing students, is awesome.

[@dnlx3487]

I like it mostly because it means there won't be a dead end due to too many deaths

[@vrgssmnncht]

I think it would be interesting if the Yakuza had no pinky finger. In Japan, that is a sign of a gangster.
