Ryo is recording his lines in a studio booth, Barry is shouting them from across the garden outside, and the water is getting pumped directly into a microphone.
The English voice acting always sounded like it was recorded in a basement of a Chinese prison where voice actors were taken away after finishing their lines then never heard of again.
That's just how they used to do English dubs on Japanese games back then. Zero effort with moments of unintentional hilarity. I mean. It's still really bad, but it doesn't sound like they were dubbed using a paper towel tube as a mic anymore.
They're horrifically awful terrible voice overs, this is one of the reasons I still to this day cannot bare to play the Yank American inferior Xb port of the superior native Dreamcast original where they characters all sound a lot better, especially the UK Dreamcast version. Unfortunately some idiots (mostly from America) have become so used to the shite VOs that they have come to believing its part of the 'Shenmue way' now, and so purposely made the voice overs in Shenmue III just as bad, even though by now there is no excuse for shit voice acting in this day and age.
What if Ryo replied "Hey! Jamal Jackson! You're a black American right? We met in Compton California last year! .... That's strange. I thought all black guys were either Jamal Jackson, Quantavius Jackson, or Durell Jackson!"
"Hey! Durell Jackson! You're a black American right? We met in Crenshaw last year! .... That's strange. I thought all black guys were either Durell Jackson, Quantavius Jackson, or Jamal Jackson!"
Next thing you know Barry will claim that all Japanese know that "tricky shit" and follow up with an annoying kung fu sound to see if Ryo gets pissed off.
“Hey Tyrone!, you’re African American right we met in the bronx last year, that’s strange I thought all African Americans were named Tyrone, Tyreece or Corey.
He’s in Pigeon Park after you do a couple of quests. Kinda the same time when Eileen appears in the park (the blonde girl that you can - Uh maybe it’s best if I don’t spoil it for you lol)
Apparently they just did a study and by 2070 all Japanese will only have the Surname of Sato-san and Suzuki-san so its actually let racist and an actual upcoming reality
A real dialogue around 2000: Sega: "Let's hire the best translation studio in America to our best, most emblematic, expensive and promising game of the generation?" Also Sega: "Nah, hire some cheap ass team and let it go"
It kind of reminds me when I told people I lived in Princeton NJ and people assumed I automatically went to the university. Just because someone lives in a country or region doesn't mean people are all the same.
It’s not about skin color, it’s just a joke at the expense of foreigners who don’t know asian cultures. The first shenmue game had tom and mark, they weren’t “racist”.
I... honestly am curious as to why this guy exist. Just to be that odd American guy who assumes all Asians are the same? Or perhaps some sort of actual experience.
Man’s so racist he doesn’t even realize that it’s the same person each time he greets him 😂
😂
Amnesia maybe
🤣🤣🤣
He thought all Japanese were either Suzuki-san, Sato-sa , or Tanaka-san.

This sound of water make this scene much better
Ah yes, the same, forever repeating sound of water.
Woka-woka-nsh, woka-woka-nsh, woka-woka-nsh, woka-woka-nsh, woka-woka-nsh, woka-woka-nsh, woka-woka-nsh, woka-woka-nsh
But how would you know that there is a water fountain nearby?
Me? Well...
Sounds more like a washing machine than a fountain 😂
Ryo is recording his lines in a studio booth, Barry is shouting them from across the garden outside, and the water is getting pumped directly into a microphone.
i'm suprised mic survived the recording
Bruh WTF 😂
And yet the dude is perceptive enough to immediately recognize that a random guy on the street in Hong Kong (China) is Japanese and not Chinese.
He knows more than he’s letting on.
He's the secret teacher of Lan Di
Years ago, he was Chinese.
@@xotl2780 lol
They look very different, the eyes chico.
I love how this guy seemingly goes all over Japan and yet no one's told him he's messing up
At least he's not Logan Paul
Honestly sounds realistic
@@seesritual8990 That's strange...
I love how every ten seconds he greets you with a new name hoping that one’s correct

Hey Cobe Bryant!
We met last year.
Didn't you die recently?
I thought all bIack Americans die from crimes.
One of the few instances where Ryo's wooden awkwardness actually makes sense.
Imagine if Barry comes back in the third game.
Did he?
@@Olsens13 No
@@fanguy674 I wish he did. Maybe they'll bring him back in 17 years for Shemnue 4.
@@xbigwormx do you think we’ll ever get Shenmue 4?
@@STAXONDECK1 We gotta wait 10 more years or so \:
The Suzuki-san, Sato-san and Tanaka-san part was funny! Just the way he said "san" was hilarious.
He literally voice cracked during every "san"
Indeed
he is racist but still use honorific pronouns lol
"SUZUKI SAHHN!!!"
This bit has surprising levels of satire for shenmue
This gives elder scrolls a run for its money.
I can't believe Shenmue had a Johnny Somali cameo so long ago, this game sure was ahead of its time !
Nah that's Yasuke, He is immortal...
Top tier NPC
There's 3 other people exactly like Ryo, that's the takeaway here.
Next thing you know Barry will claim that all Japanese know that "tricky shit" and follow up with an annoying kung fu sound to see if Ryo gets pissed off.
You can see how triggered Ryo was getting at the end of the video.
Lol his vision was beginning to flash colors, he was so angry
I don’t think he’s racist, he’s just higher than the international space station.
Gosh that water loop sound effect is agonizing.
Just another day at the shenmue land
the 1 second loop of the water flowing is actually more infuriating that the racist dialogs
And I thought all black guys were either Jackson, or Williams
Hahahaha
That's strange. I thought all black guys were either Abdi, Tyron, or Jamal.
You forgot Jones
Funny
Bro what. I'm black and I've never heard of any black person with those names lol 😆
His voice is hilarious😂😂😂
0:21
Imagine if he didn't sound like have to go pee
Johnny Somali be like:
this is something out of a horror movie
Yo no lie though, Japan is FULL of Sato sans.
really? what about Yamagishi sans? :D
they are full of all the names he mentioned. extremely common names.
@@ADCFproductions I’m more of an Omosan myself.
1:21 Water intensifies
They found a homeless black dude on the streets of tokyo and asked him to record some lines
Everyone except Ryo and a few others are just random English-speaking Japanese citizens 💀
this is like the maddest I've ever heard Ryo sound
“Hey Tyrone!, you’re African American right we met in the bronx last year, that’s strange I thought all African Americans were named Tyrone, Tyreece or Corey.
In his defense, this guy sounds plastered drunk 😂
I been knowing Tanaka-san 27 years
I went to school with Tanaka-san, Suzuki-san and Sato-san.
😂
I know a Suzuki-senpai and a Suzuki-sensei.
Good job Ryo didn’t say that he saw someone who looked like him in Nigeria last time he visited.
I've never saw him in Shenmue and played through this game a couple of times
He’s in Shenmue 2
That's because he's mistaken him for someone else
He’s in Pigeon Park after you do a couple of quests. Kinda the same time when Eileen appears in the park (the blonde girl that you can - Uh maybe it’s best if I don’t spoil it for you lol)

he should said tom remember me you work at the hotdog stand.
Legend
I mean, considering my first thought was: "Hey, what's Tom doing in Hong Kong..."
I thought all good video games were Knack and Knack 2
watch your proffamity
It blows my mind how this game has multiple versions of the same exact dialogue for every Npc
That's why I adore Shenmue as a mundane game not as action games
This is beautiful
In an alternate reality:
I swear this game have the same weirdness as Deadly Premonition sometimes 😅
I love these so trippy
Also notice Ryo never actually denies that his name is either Suzuki-san, Sato-san, or Tanaka-san.
*Dreamcast rulez*
Why does most of the dialogue sound like it was recorded via video link?
Ryo: What!? You think all Japanese people look-a-like?
This is great art of the highest order, a sushi order
Times really were different back in 2001.
Suzuki-san, sato-san, Tanaka-san 😂
Did Garrett Morris voice that guy?
You can play darts against him
Barry: Also, I thought all English fellers were named Barry.
A real dialogue around 2000:
Sega: "Let's hire the best translation studio in America to our best, most emblematic, expensive and promising game of the generation?"
Also Sega: "Nah, hire some cheap ass team and let it go"
with the JELL-O and the PUDDING POP dawwwwwwwwwwwwww
0:25 I swear it sounds like my mans says Sato Sauce
those perfect voice actings
R-Truth and Little Jimmy sure had fun on their vacation to China in the 80s.
I watched this video while eating a Kobe steak and drinking a Sapporo beer.
Jesus Christ Barry
Ryo has some serious memory problems if he doesn't remember his trips to Kobe, Sapporo and Okinawa. I know for sure he was there, I met him there!
This is what a Japanese writer imagines racism to look like.
the voice acting itself is racist hahahhaha
Naruto San
Why didn't anyone tell me they made a Season 3 of XRA?
Lol
The racist dialogue is that Barry sounds drunk 🤣
It kind of reminds me when I told people I lived in Princeton NJ and people assumed I automatically went to the university. Just because someone lives in a country or region doesn't mean people are all the same.
black privilege
this dude did a LOT of traveling in japan last year and he absorbed no knowledge whatsoever
Why did they make the only black guy in this game a racist💀
It’s not about skin color, it’s just a joke at the expense of foreigners who don’t know asian cultures. The first shenmue game had tom and mark, they weren’t “racist”.
What the hell 😂
Shenmue is AWESOME 💪😎
Video games ARE art.
He looks like Mob Barley
Meu deus que absurdo! Kkk'
Suzuki is very common Japanese name.
I have a feeling he was doing that shit on purpose.
Hell yeah
Classic , at first it I thought he was gonna be related to Tom
That's racist.

Um...
Oh god…
But when we say this to black people...
Shaniqua, Tyrone, etc.
Hey! Suzuki-san! you're Japanese, right? We met in Kobe last year?
Wow wtf man
LOL when I saw the thumbnail I was expecting the racism going towards the black guy not the other way around XD
Suzuki Sahhhhhhhhn
,don't know where he struck out... Sato san was suppose to be the winning guess. cause nearly all Japanese are Sato.
