@@HupCapNinja I don't know; I think it's fine enough. It's a little awkward, but their changes to the lyrics made it smooth enough. It definitely works better than "Like a Butterfly".
Also you can tell the Dub was never intended due to the lip syncing being off at times and some scenes it’s really noticeable. My assumption is they rushed it. If you’re gonna do a game set in Japan with English dub you need Asian voice actors that clearly have an Accent an accent can go a long way like Ghost of Tsushima and Sleeping Dogs.
Get yourself a friend like Ichiban. You're singing the saddest song you can think of at karaoke. He's over there, hyping you up like the DDR announcer.
Most drama courses also teach some singing. Because, as you may guess, most medias still implement some musical numbers, like animations. So most competent voice actors know at least how to sing on note.
I mean, the same holds true for basically everybody's photo in this. Kiryu's never really looking at stuff to do with love, just at nostalgic stuff. Akiyama just looks at his old days as a homeless bum.

the dub in yakuza 7 is amazing, it's been a long time since a game made me feel like if i was watching a movie, even after playing many cinematic games.
Im just talking outta my ass here but maybe its because its been a good while since we've had an action adventure japan-made game with english dub. Now that there's plenty of cinematic adventure type english games in .. well.. english.. so its a nice change of pace to see a japanese game dubbed in english.
