Like a Dragon Gaiden Gets Its Promised English Dub Update This Month

Nah fam I'm good

Won't be using it anyway, these games don't sound right in English regardless of the quality of the dub and I can't imagine that ending being anywhere near as impactful with it

Yong won't get too much praise for this;)

That's a YongNo from me.

I loved the English dub in Yakuza 7 Like a Dragon, but unfortunately the casting will make me switch back to Japanese for future games. I don't get it as the English VO for Kiryu in 7 was perfectly fine. Its a shame I'm really gonna miss Kaiji Tang as Ichiban. He crushed that role.

No idea why would want this, but hey, options are good I guess. I'll just stick to the Kiryu I know and love.

As yongyea would say, yongyea out.
Cause this ain't it lmao

I’ve played all the mainline Yakuza games with subtitles, but I tried Yakuza: Like a Dragon and the Judgment games with English dubs and enjoyed them that way.

Then I tried the demo for Infinite Wealth and oh boy. Kiryu as a nasal-voiced whiner just doesn’t work. Back to subtitles, then.

Only time ive used the english dub was in the judgements. Mainly because alot of it is about law and id rather follow that in english. Having completed and platinumed Gaiden tho i really think yong will struggle with scenes particularly at the end.

@carlos82
That ending legitimately broke me. Just top tier acting and animation work. I haven't been hit in the feels like that in a long time!

What's sad is his biggest role he was the wrong va for but yong is an actual good actor which makes this even worse

Yong's got range. It's weird that the the people in charge of directing the dub wouldn't give him notes to modulate his voice to be less nasal. I switched to dub for 7, and wanted to continue, but after finishing the man who erased his name and playing the demo for 8 in English, I think I'll return to original vo.
It's a shame because I'm sure he could have pulled it off with the right direction. I'm happy to see Asians getting more vo roles both as Asian and non Asian characters.

Appreciate the gesture, but it's not the Kiryu I've been partying with since 2008, so I'll pass.

it's Amazing with English Dub, it's like watching a dubbed Japanese Anime in English (hell No!)

Ironic that the majority of those who complain about the English VAs only play in Japanese anyways.

That's a no for me dawg.

Stop wasting money sega.
