games

I really try to ignore Majima beating his ex-wife in Y5 and I wish it weren't canon. Especially because it's over how she had an abortion. That seemed really out of character, even though Majima was presented as being more sinister prior to Y0. Although he does kidnap Haruka in Y1? I think the writers would flip-flop on how morally ambiguous the characters are supposed to be if they're supposedly these hardened gangsters who commit crimes, but they're also these wacky lovable doofs who sing karaoke and race toy cars.

I still hold Y5 as the best game, despite all of that. I love that the climax involves four characters trying to coax the evil mastermind out of hiding by having a fist fight on top of the tower. "If we take off our shirts and have a cool karate fight on the helipad the bad guy will simply appear like always."
