This Cult Is A Scam!, Majima Stops Stupid Scam- Yakuza 0 Part 6

[@doctordoctor431]

Don’t worry too much about understanding what went down with Saejima, all that matters about it for Yakuza 0’s story is that Majima and Saejima both got screwed over. Yakuza 0 came out after Yakuza 5 and the Saejima stuff first appeared in Yakuza 4

[@StephenBanyar]

The truth is, Oath Brothers are pretty much just partners. Making your henchmen believe that they're family is a good way of keeping them loyal to eachother. It is supposed to avoid unnecessary conflict. Everyone in the Yakuza seems to have one. Kazuma Kiryu has Akira Nishikiyama, Goro Majima has Taiga Saejima and Tsukasa Sagawa has Futoshi Shimano. Occasionally, they might have multiple oath brothers, like the brotherly triangle between Daisaku Kuze, Hiroki Awano and Keiji Shibusawa. Of course, it's as you'd say, it would be naive to assume that oath brothers will always be good to eachother. They are organised criminals who are looking out for themselves, after all. Anyways, with that out of the way it is time for me to teach you all some more about Japanese pronunciation. Consonant sounds that are in Japanese aren't singular. They always have a vowel sound after them. Except for the "n" sound, which is singular. (I'll be using the letter X to represent the consonants.) All sounds in Japanese, like the Xa sounds: Ka, Ga, Sa, Za, Ta, Da, Na, Ha, Ba, Pa, Ma, Ya, Ra and Wa, are all pronounced similarly. There are no variations on how they finish. Same goes for every other type. Xi, Xe, Xo, Xu. Xi sounds, like Ki and Hi are pronounced "Key" and "He". You see how they're pretty much the same except for the starting consonant that changes? Xe sounds, the He (へ) sound, for example, is pronounced like the He in the English word "Hen". Change that H to an S, then you've got Se, which is pronounced like the Se in the English word "Send". In Xu sounds, remember that Su is pronounced like the English word "Sue", not like Su in "Suck" or "Sunday". The vowel sounds, A, I, U, E, O, can be used individually. An example of this would be the "A" in Akira Nishikiyama's name. It is a singular A, not part of the K, which is from the Ki in Akira. That "Lori-chan" who joined Munan Suzuki's cult is actually named Iori, pronounced "E-ori". That's because of how the language lacks the Letter L. The closest thing to it is the letter R. So if it was Lori, it would be written as Rori (ろり or alternatively and problematically ロリ). People who are knowledgeable in anime, manga or hentai will already recognise that box and two lines and immediately see the problem... ロリ(which is always rendered as Loli) is the word used to describe female characters who are involved in sexy situations that happen to look like children. I apologise for any discomfort I may have caused by telling you this. I hope you've found everything else up in this comment to be helpful or educational.

51:40 In these games you can hear some characters call one another "kyodai" which means brother or sibling literally, but in the Yakuza they do a formal ceremony for members to take an oath of brotherhood, so kyodai among them does mean "sworn brother" and its a term of respect.

[@МихаилБганко]

8:15 Majima even said that he needs to do a bit of research before heading there. There were few npcs you could talk or listen to, who had info about Odyssey. It would also give you advantage for Majima's business later on

[@ThatGuySarabia]

This cult reminds me of the real life cult in Japan called Aum Shinrikyo

[@mr.stider2901]

Probably a parody

[@TakishimaToshiya]

Love the videos. Just to say that this cult in the game is a mockery of a real cult, Aum Shinrikyo. If you have time, they are very interesting to read about. Not only the biggest terrorist attack in Japan but also has some wild twists like trying to buy nukes and helicopters from soviets and much more.

[@elperrodelautumo7511]

Any cults scare me. Heck cults in Japan are so infamous. It had one causing a sarin gas attack in 1995 in Tokyo. Also I remember that one episode from Cowboy Bebop about a cult where it’s so controlled by a leader who happens to be an AI controlled by a coma ridden hacker

[@austin.....]

There have been some insane ones in the US like the peoples temple, mansons, the davidians and heavens gate just to name a few off the top of my head. Most of the most notorious cults ever are sadly from the states. Not something we're proud of.

[@Overkill2002]

Shoora pee-pee

[@phonemaung6333]

Some things you can do - You can grab an enemy in Thug on the two bridges(grab them or move them close to the railings) with Majima and instal-kill most with a heat action. 2nd bar I think - There should be a substory when you interact with the telephone booth near the Grand - You can learn weapon skills from Fei Hung the guy who taught you The Slugger - Fei Hun shop can get you firearms if you send agents on expedition to the US. One of the best way early on imo to deal with Shakedown is to glock him. - To equip you select the gear slot then select what gear you want to equip not the other way around.

[@StrongStyleFiction]

I have a different interpretation of Sagawa than most. I think that Sagawa legitimately likes and sees something in Majima. But Sagawa is middle management stuck with the jobs no one really wants. Sagawa is under orders to keep Majima locked in his gilded cage. Sagawa said this whole thing is the brainchild of Shimano who is ultimately calling the shots when it comes to Majima. Sagawa is the one who has to keep pulling the rug out from under Majima because that is his job. Never to let Majima out of his cage until he is told to. Keep him locked in. Sagawa is probably my favorite non-playable character in the entire series and he really is a fascinating character. You initially think you know what he is about but the more you watch him the more mysterious his real motivations become. He's probably one of the most well written characters in any video game. He's a villain and a scumbag, but in terms of Yakuza scumbags, dude doesn't touch the top ten. But I think in the last chapter, when he pushed Majima to quit the yakuza life and become a civilian, he was genuine in that. But because Majima persists, he has to play the role of jailer.

[@ninetailedsamurai3536]

4:36 oh Patrick wait till the first game kiwami you'll how know much more of a scumbag he really is kinda the reason for the whole game happening to debatabley

[@gunnargunnarsson5963]

His second boss fight is laughably easy once you unlock the Tiger Drop, to the point where his goons pose a larger threat than him.

[@Lendon142]

The Shakedown Dudes are best to fight in the open and always just hit them once and run, then repeat, always avoid him if he's charging at you with a running pace.

[@mikeehrmantraut1899]

And btw, with the broken abilities for both Kiryu and Majima can make the Shakedown a fat joke.

[@a1rg3ar31]

Or you could just shred them with Slime Guns and Zap Guns, but that requires investing in Fei Hu's weapon sourcing.

[@donisatrio8384]

Meanwhile i just spam knife/dagger heat actions on them, they deal a lot of damage

[@МихаилБганко]

53:05 Well, yes, but also not quite. I won't explain though, it will be spoilers, but pay close attention to scenes where he is involved. Also I cannot wait when he gets to chapter like "Unwavering Bonds". It will be hard one.

Im happy to be a yakuza fan we eating good from the two new yakuza games to this awesome gameplay

[@mikeehrmantraut1899]

One thing I'm not happy as a Yakuza fan is how the series was plague with huge problems with story, character, combat and missing features was never return

[@austin.....]

@@mikeehrmantraut1899 I can barely understand what you're saying, but many would agree the yakuza series is aging like fine wine and only gets better as it goes. I'm happy as a Yakuza fan right now.

[@wolfgang5895]

17:32 hey pro i think thier base on a real life cult that happen in japan it called "Aum Shinrikyo" and this game took place in 1988 and 7 years later the real life cult did something that change japan forever the "1995 Tokyo subway sarin attack" i think that what sega is base on that real life cult and also thier leader "aum Shinrikyo " was given a death penalty on 2018

[@Krezzing]

Btw many people misinterpret what "i don't kill" means for yakuza protagonists When they say that they mean killing in cold blood, murder basically Unlike self defense sometimes you'll have to do insane stuff that 100% kills someone but it's always in a situation where it was either them or you The struggle really comes for killing in cold blood I'm saying this coz many people misinterpret the protagonist from this point of view

[@billybob7135]

Exactly. Just like how Kiryu in the next game turns down a brawl because he thought it was senseless, but was willing to spar with the same guy (and potentially feed him a box of nails) for mutual benefit.

[@kjnguyen1385]

It’s based on real life cult Aum Shinrikyo

[@markmitin7397]

Hey Professional, the Order of Munan Chohept Onast is heavily inspired by a real Japanese cult in the 1980’s called “Aum Shinrikyo”. And their leader have close resemblance to Shoko Asahara, the leader of Aum Shinrikyo. That cult is notorious for bioterrorism, including Matsumoto Sarin Attacks and Tokyo Subway Sarin Attacks in the 90’s. The cult itself was recognized as a terrorist organization, and many key members and leader himself were sentenced to death. The SEGA must have done the same thing like Rockstar did in GTA games, by exploring real themes in satirical or fictional stories.

About the card u picked up at the end Those are actually "corn" actresses that basically did a collab with this game (trust me it's pretty common for this series) They're collectibles and are part of 100% completion

[@crashthrax]

Quick tip cuz my ADHD is killing me pro.. Majima's name is pronounced as MAA-JIMA. Plus if you go to the other side of the bridge, you can get a different "style". (Rush style but HELLA broken) Last but not least. Keep on stacking up with the heals and equipments as their lot more vital. Keep upgrading Kiryu/Majima because at a point, you can get op enough to beat Mr.Shakedown.

[@animeking4953]

Saejima goes to prison for that hit for long time but does become a protagonist in yakuza 4. The hit gets explained in yakuza 4

[@gotoku1025]

Hey pro just wanna let you know you can use items laying on the street in heat actions btw. The more you use the same special in a battle the less damage it'll do each time during that battle. Things like couches bikes and almost anything else can be really helpful to use as specials! Same goes for grabbing a enemy near a wall or a river for example.

[@jonathanjimenez495]

For Slugger you want to do the nun chunk move which is light + light + light + heavy mash same applies for the next style you'll unlock soon but better

I really hope you choose the "Do The Hustle" option on the Cult substory, kinda sad you didn't, but i understand most new player didn't know what that mean. And yes, to Yakuza player, i literally skip the video to that part just to see if Pro choose that option instead of the real one

[@HerBenevolence21]

It's nice that you're playing some side missions instead of playing only the main story and also this game has no missible missions so don't worry if you thought rejecting the side mission might fail it later

[@Sbv-25]

I got my butt kicked by the cult leader on my first run. He really got hands!

[@UndercoverBoy833YT]

Pro pronounced Iori as L but it's i-ori (I). I'm not here to diss pro for this mistakes because he's new to Yakuza games, even myself included. More peakuza content pro is cooking. Also every time I hear some NPCs says "She/he's the professional" or something, Pro tries to poke fun into it which is funny

[@chrisphelps4552]

Of course he's going to stop an evil cult from doing evil things. I mean Majima is a king of a country in another world having to contend with a n OP boy on a near daily basis as well as being a Gundam fighter for a futuristic version of Russia.

[@kjnguyen1385]

[@walderoni9865]

What shibata's underling did to majima in 85 was kinda a selfish deed

[@tobejiru]

Super nitpicky but sometimes you mistake the capital I with the lowercase L when it comes to names. Iori (Ee-yo-ri) instead of Lori, and from the tv shoot substory, Iida (Ee-da) instead of Lida

[@ItzAnt2002]

Much love pro

[@Krezzing]

You should upgrade your styles to unlock more moves, heat actions and increase health and whatnot Also for picking items, many items have heat actions included with them that are very powerful, heat actions aren't just for barehanded combat or majima bat

every character majima or Kriyu meet the are completely greed scambaugs like kuze or the loan shark guy or itchibana guy there want to use Kriyu like the give him an offer but Kriyu smart enough to see there lies and refuse

[@billybob7135]

The main conflict of the series is Kiryu and his allies trying to reconcile the romantic idea of the Yakuza as honorable protectors of the street with the brutal reality of the criminal underworld. It's rough when Kiryu does everything right only to not be surprised it was all about the money and the bad guy committed an atrocity along the way. Heck, I find it sad that Kiryu in a later game was happy to find out that he was being used because the only trust im the underworld is the trust that someone else is pragmatic enough to guarentee your safety until you outlive your usefulness.

I would suggest doing some of the side quests its gonna get alot harder for you at the end one of my favorite yakuza games to play in the series

For those interested: The cult in the game is a satirical portrayal of the real-life Aum Shinrikyo cult, which was responsible for the notorious Tokyo subway terrorist attack. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo_subway_sarin_attack
