Hey everyone! Here we are with the next Vocabulary Series episode! This one was a ton of fun to make! I will be moving house now and won't have internet for 2 weeks, however after that I've got some really special videos planned thanks to the wonderful folks over at SEGA! Can't wait! Hope you enjoy! Thanks for watching and hope you're having fun learning Japanese!
it's crazy how much time and effort you put into all these videos you make. I'm still trying to learn the basics of everything and don't know much grammar, but watching this helps me learn when I'm exhausted from using my textbook. hope your moving goes alright!
The amount of work that goes into these videos is insane. I so wish there was more to this. Though I'm not taking any language tests. I feel very immersed in the learning and would love to get more vocab understanding from the Yakuza series.
I searched for this because there's a UA-camr named "Jimmy Kim", and he said he learned how to speak japanese (he speaks it very well) by just playing yakuza. So I'm very intrigued by it.
I got sooooo excited when I saw this! This was the first of the yakuza series I played, in part because I love the seiyuu, Kuroda-san, and fell in love with the series, the amazing writing, all the incredible characters, the brilliant seiyuu, and of course who doesn’t love MAJIMA? Kiryu is also wonderful, but MAJIMA!! I actually watched over half of this with my husband when it went live last night, as he’s trying to better his English, and I’m trying to better my Japanese. He complimented your Japanese and said your English is also incredibly easy to listen to, as a Japanese native. I’m super looking forward to you continuing this series. I love learning from your channel. Thank you so very much for your videos! I’m guessing you’ll have to edit some of the side quests and parts of the later movies and the like, lol, but I can’t wait!
Just started playing this and I have to say it definitely had a lot of words I missed. But still enjoyable enough to keep going . Alao, this video is definitely helping fill in the gaps. 笑。
hey Mathew, I really want to disscus about your immersion kit. It is really interesting but there's still something I want to ask you. How can I message you?
Ooh great timing. I'm 10 minutes from Dotonbori rn. Leaving for Fukuoka tomorrow and before I leave, I want to stop at a bar and sing one round of Bakamitai or Judgement especially since this area was so influential to Sotenbori.(Don't know 24hr Cinderella sadly😢)
Oh nice! Hope you enjoy the karaoke!! Fukuoka is an amazing city! Hope you have a blast! Make sure to eat some at some Yatai-mise, also its Oyster season right now in Itoshima
This is really well done! I focus on immersion as much as possible, but sometimes you need someone to dissect and explain sentences to you, especially given the nature of Japanese. The level of explanation, as well as replaying the sentence afterward, was perfect!
This channel is absolutely unbelievably good. Thank you so, so much to everyone working so hard to provide these awesome videos. I cannot express my gratitude enough. Youre all absolute legends.
Thanks so much haha It's just me working on these videos but my wife helps proof check the Japanese is all correct and solid! Thanks so much for enjoying the videos!
I love your videos!❤ You've helped me so much. Could you do the game project sekai next? The words surely aren't that difficult but i'm stil not good enough.
comparing the original text to the english localization is really interesting, it goes to show how hard good translation is. a lot of this stuff would sound dull translated literally in comparison, and wouldn't sell the cool atmosphere from the subtleties in japanese that get lost in translation. so translators have to be creative and take liberties to translate not only the words, but convey the meaning behind the text.
also worth noting "pink street" i believe is perhaps a double meaning in this case as it seems to be based on a real place in kabukicho where the pink is in reference to cherry blossoms.
Awesome! I just picked this up again, continuing a save from 2019 haha, want to get ready for infinite wealth. I’m still not at a level where I could play in Japanese completely but I can understand parts of the dialogue
kiryuu saying 出来ないすかね is more. like a response to his last statement like saying “i wonder if yakuza cant make people happy ?” and when the guy goes さあーな its more like “ well i wonder too ” sort of sarcastically
Looking dapper in that suit! I’m working my way through 13 Sentinels, where I have also came across phrases such as “喧嘩を売る”, especially from gruff characters like Nenji and Yuki, so it’s nice to get a vocabulary review in a video like this.

Nice suit, Matt

You deserve 1000x the views for the insane amount of work and polish you put into these videos. Thank you.

What an awesome channel! You deserve more subscribers. Please continue the Yakuza series!
One of my favorite games and some nice explanation makes me remember this, thank you
A triumph! Thank you, Matt!
I love you so much!!!
lol, thanks for this video and also for your past videos. You are awesome!!!
Please don’t stop helping us study Japanese.
Awesome!! I can listen while my lonely cycling!! Thank you 🎉🎉
careful with the cars!

singing along during the immersion section was a great time
I want to teach my parrot to say OI KORRREEE

Just bought this game 😆 good timing!
lots of respect for this video! very well made. keep stuff like this up
Hello this channel taught me lot about japanese and different games
Thank you as usual, crazy the amount of work, I hope you'll continue 🙌
Love the suit lol maybe you should do this style more often, or adjust your outfit to the vibe of the game
1:21:14 I think you mean from the “joint”
7:35 all according to 計画
Translators note: 計画（けいかく）means plan 🤓
noice good video. this is very good teaching method, maybe i can employ the same for movies to teach in future
Around 21:00 10:43 in the afternoon? Wouldn't that be night time?
This channel is c r a z y, you are amazing. ありがとうございます！
🙏🏻
コラア！！！！
Yes I just bought the game a few days ago, gonna follow the video with the game if possible 😂😂🎉🎉
Lets goooooo!!!
This is better than any "let's play" could hope to be.
How do i can change the subtitle to japanese on pc (Not steam version)
you are great 👍
I was thinking Yakuza 6 would have been the better choice since every single dialogue is voiced even in the side quests.
Better in terms of learning perhaps, but then you'll have a lot of people like me who haven't played up to Y6 who wouldn't watch it.
but what if the ヘルス has the exact medicine that I need? lol
hey Mathew, I really want to disscus about your immersion kit. It is really interesting but there's still something I want to ask you. How can I message you?
arigatou gozaimashita

Your videos are AWESOME
yakuza 0 is such a good game
10:05 It's タクシーが捕まる→捕まらない、NOT タクシーが掴む→掴まない
Absolutely, great spot there! Must have used the wrong dictionary lookup as it was written in hiragana, thanks for pointing that out!
Awesome, btw great kiryu cosplay though

Hey Matt, I want to recommend a game with interesting language. Sakuna of rice and ruin
天穂のサクナヒメ
wooow, pitch accents on the whole sentences, the quality of this channel is going to through the roof!!!
These videos are absolutely the best!!!!!
後藤家軒下の仁義を失礼ですが
お控えなすって
Oh wow 😮 that anybody would do this! This is insane! Thanks for that video 🙏🏻
I want you to make a part two. That was so AWESOME and entertaining
I can't believe I watched the whole thing in one night.
Looking dapper in that suit! I’m working my way through 13 Sentinels, where I have also came across phrases such as “喧嘩を売る”, especially from gruff characters like Nenji and Yuki, so it’s nice to get a vocabulary review in a video like this.
