- fire up the party like “begin the celebration” but also like “buff your team members’ attack stat” am i right lads
- did not try to translate any of the festival chants because 1) i could not make out a few and couldn’t find transcribed lyrics for those bits 2) i feel like it’s very hard to capture a cultural equivalent in English 3) they are fun????? what’s better than this guys bein dudes
- generally translated the “ichiban” puns as his name because i sort of agree with all the people who see Ichibanka as a celebration song welcoming him to the Yakuza franchise. “Number One” fits just as well as “Ichiban”, though, for syllables!
- i could write 3 books apologizing for the poetic sins ive committed - sorry for rhyming “yakuza” with “loser”, however, it was worth it and id do it again
- art / video / vocals / mixing were all by me but I am still very much a n00b at all of this stuff so please be merciful fhdhshf
- i didn’t include all the eventual party members bc i don’t know how many of them still count as spoilers at this point lmao. zhao would immediately crush everyone with his wota game

I was very impressed with the dub and localization work on Like A Dragon (lookin @ u machine gun kiss), especially after reading a lot of the development notes, which is sort of what inspired / kicked my butt to work on this … fandub? Is that what the kids call it these days? Sorry I couldn’t hit more of the low notes though!! :’) And also that the little dancing party doesn’t quite always line up with the music.
“Ichiban Song” may be a little tacky but I hope it conveys the spirit of this cover being very casual, fun, and not 100% serious. Thank you for listening and reading! Please feel free to hit me up with questions/suggestions regarding translations, or use/edit these lyrics for your own covers as long as you credit the original authors/copyright holders!

EDIT: Wow, congrats on making it this far down! People keep asking about this -- HAN AND ZHAO ARE AT AN IJIN THREE MEETING AND COULDN'T MAKE THE FILMING OF THIS VIDEO. :(
That, and when I first made this, Y7 was still pretty new to NA and I wanted to respectful of people who consider late-game party characters to be semi-spoilers. Thanks for understanding! :)
