#i feel like just as everyone's aware of mine's devotion to daigo everyone should be aware of majima's faithfulness to kiryu

Loved the essay, and it had a lot of thought provoking truths. Mine was an amazing character and I miss him dearly everyday 🥺 I still need to check out the story with Hamazaki and him.

But geez, Hamazaki was suspiciously fixated on Majima's relationship with Kiryu and the "Heeeeey what if Kiryu-san became the new chairman, Mine? Would that be fucked up or what 😳" just leaves me feeling ???? Like, what did he know, why them specifically, h u h.

mine IS such an amazing character, if not at least an incredibly interesting one to examine and think about. i love him dearly and while i miss him everyday, i can’t even imagine what the yakuza series would look like if he did survive Y3 and became a reoccurring cast member...

as for hamazaki’s fixation on kiryu, while i know the rggo stories were written after the mainline games, after reading the one i linked beforehand hamazaki at least has a personal reason to target kiryu so much and try to goad others into pouncing on him. but removing rggo’s existence, the most i can wager is that it’s nothing particularly personal, it’s just that hamazaki’s aware of kiryu’s popularity and strength and wants to try to turn people against him so hamazaki has a better shot at becoming chairman

#snap chats #hamazaki saying as much to mine especially tells us he wants kiryu out of the picture #i cant remember when the rggo story takes place but either way im willing to bet eveyrone's aware of mine's devotion to daigo #so by hamazaki reminding mine that daigo's position could be threatened by the likes of kiryu #it's more likely than not that mine would do what he could against kiryu to preserve daigo's status #of course at this point during that flashback daigo's status isn't exactly perfect but it's not totally fatal #so on hamazaki's end it was a bit of a gamble: get kiryu out of the picture and hopefully daigo would follow suit and not recover #of course things dont exactly turn out well for hamazaki either huh #it is a wonder why hamazaki tries to have majima go against kiryu though #i feel like just as everyone's aware of mine's devotion to daigo everyone should be aware of majima's faithfulness to kiryu #a weird move to be sure BUT oh well #ngl i really liked hamazaki- if not cause Y4 somehow made me like him lmao #i guess it was nice to see a character be able to redeem themselves for once- yk before like. immediately dying afterwards #but im getting off topic lmao thank you for the ask im glad you liked my essay :) i'll happily write another one if prompted or whatever lol #me answering this ask is such funny timing though in regards to the first half #i was JUST talking to my brother and theorizing what the yakuza series woulda been like had mine lived #thats definitely something i wanna try writing or at least looking into at some point #but... Say It With Me Now.... i gotta replay Y4 first LMAOOO #I DONT REMEMBER ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS IN Y4 #ughhh i keep saying ill replay it but i never do #i wanna draw something quick so lets see... #no i dont think i can play it tonight i told my sister i'd pack her lunch tomorrow #i guess after that i can.... we'll see i'll end this post now tho im rambling lmao
