I feel like missing notes in Majimas karaoke should add points to your score

[@TTCello]

And you should, in fact end up with scores like 148 or 169 or stuff like that for perfect/good performances

[@thiccman2330]

Nah that means your a disgrace to majima if you miss notes

The point is that when you miss notes he sings like its 24hour cinderella

[@moonieland]

I love how Majima casually shifts between actually singing and screeching like a fucking chicken being smashed against a wall. I would expect no less of Goro Majima.

2 great things about this: 1. In Yakuza 4 the character profile for Minami says his favourite karaoke song is Get to the Top too meaning he probably took after Majima. 2. In Yakuza 0 Majima sings like a pro meaning somewhere over 25 years or so he just stopped giving a fuck and started to completely let loose like this.

[@liamclarke91]

Majima stopping giving a fuck is pretty much his character arc, played for drama.

[@gaminggoddess85]

Have you heard Majima no MajiROCK? That one proves he can still sound good when he wants. Also his backup singing in Rouge of Love suggests he was always a little nutty even back in the day lol.

[@DrunkenCoward1]

In Yakuza 4, before Minami's boss fight Get to the Top actually comes on and Akiyama shuts it off, taking from us the opportunity to see him sing this song. Akiyama confirmed true villain of Yakuza 4.

[@thecorner201]

Also, in yakuza 0 (I watched someone else play it) He just decided to stop giving a fuck, like people say, at the end of it he just stopped but deep down I guess he's still ol Majima when he really wants like in the zombie game, a lil girl broke his charecter a lil

[@callmesplet4281]

Majima forgot how to sing and learnt how to MOVE

[@Trancelistener09]

His face at the end says: "Nailed it"!

[@DynoSkrimisher]

Just look at how composed he is.

[@kakateboi42]

@Kono Dio Da it actually never did, just don't let Giorno find out or the voice of love won't take him higher 1:22

[@miriam5047]

The more I watch this and 24-Hour Cinderella, the more convinced I am that deep down inside Majima secretly dreams about being an idol. Not in an aspirational sense--he's too much of a realist--but like, "daydreams about performing for millions while singing in the shower" sort of way. Kinda puts his relationship with Mirai in a new light.

[@aiokhiladi3997]

He did released a song Majima No Majirock

[@TheNobody-ru5xg]

And thus, Majima decided to give up on the thug life to pursue his dream of being an idol. He went on to sell countless CDs and tons of merchandise.

[@miriam5047]

Kamurocho night life chugging through a zombie apocalypse like nothing is going on is extremely in character for the place. Actually, when you think about it, fighting through mobs of violent humans to go to karaoke is pretty normal for an average Kamurocho night...why stop the party just because the mobs are undead this time around?

They're actually bumping down the key of the song so that Majima could sing it, as it's typically reserved for the hostesses and such. So it's sung in a lower pitch than the original, basically. Truth about Majima being loud af though. 😂

​@@feebzcheezit's a case of him singing badly on purpose because he doesn't enjoy it, but it still kinda works somehow. Japanese voice acting will usually have the same person for both regular dialogue and any singing the role might need, so voice actors have the unwritten expectations of being able to do both. Ugaki Hidenari can sing just fine, 24hr Cinderella is proof, this is just what he tolerates better
