If you're gonna read any quote from an article on the game, let it be this one, because I think it sums up a lot of the feelings of fans pretty succintly
![“In a word, it’s grief,” Yakuza/Like A Dragon Wiki “Chairman” Masu told me. “If you’re a longtime fan or even if you can see yourself becoming one, if the series has resonated with you, it’s hard to come to terms with the idea that maybe its driving principle of chivalry is just a power fantasy to be packaged and sold and not a sincerely-held belief. And if you’re a survivor like I am, it’s even harder to lose faith in creators you hoped were in your corner when most of the world isn’t. A lot of us are being forced to close a chapter in our lives [that] we never wanted to close.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fih2jbqfmjrza7yqgbtn5phi/bafkreigs7vvyitkf77yiu4ytu3cghqyojcmfqwajzktyymakgftxmjq434@jpeg)

I honestly think if you talk about a teenage girl this way you should be banned from all walks of public life
This level of apologia (from Megan McArdle in a podcast with Josh Barro and Ross Douthat) is fucking appalling. Idk what else there is to say.

Would strongly advise people to not give this company money so they feel the consequences of how terribly they've handled this. Disgusting
RGG Studio not only cast Kagawa despite his actions, they are specifically taking advantage of his image as a creep to sell the role.
Guess that’s that. #REMOVEKAGAWA

![A shot of Teruyuki Kagawa as Goh Hamazaki in Yakuza Kiwami 3 with his face mosaic blurred out, accompanied by an excerpt from a GAME Watch interview with Ryosuke Horii on 2026-02-05:
Horii: “Rikiya and Hamazaki are both key characters to the story, so it would certainly be safer not to recast them and avoid online criticism (laughs). But we felt there was no use being afraid. We based our decision on what excited us and made us think, ‘This is who we want to perform,’ or ‘What if we cast this person?’ […] Hamazaki is a sleazy, persistent, and militant yakuza, right? Since he isn’t an explosive character like Kanda, when we tried to think of someone who makes you go, ‘This guy’s a creep,’ naturally it was Kagawa-san. The biggest thing was just had to see that. Kagawa-san’s acting is fun to watch. Even when he’s chopping a pig’s feet off with a chef’s knife, it has a slimy feel.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:miwrulrgrudgnchcqgcpxgth/bafkreianho4oe2hx4rmjbrd65x22prtp53ol6fm5ljlqdnjmxkjx2bnpme@jpeg)

Every friend group of 3 or more should be visually distinct. You are not allowed to be friends if you were created in the same factory. I should be able to instantly tell how your strengths & weaknesses complement each other like a KOF team. Who is the zoner? Who is the grappler? Who throws hands?

Epstein is the most garish and harrowing manifestation of this but oligarchy makes life miserable in a thousand other ways. A core point of democracy is that no one should have so much power that they can make themselves everybody's problem. We should have a political party that believes that
The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll
