Getting ready for the Casino

Otsuyu gets help from our master manager of girls: Hudson Ahn!

What is it with the girls that like Vin Jin and their lively imagination? 👁️👄👁️ Hudson see's right through her.

Also Akemi is dressed as a cab because she'll help the „we're rich“ illusion of Vasco and Vin by driving them

Hudson Ahns POV:

(Yakuza 0 did not leave a lasting influence on me nooooooooooo)

Anyways this whole shenanigan started because I wanted to see how she looks in white and it went overboard… again.

so we all know the explicit sakai deer imagery, right? despite stags being associated with kazumasa, deer are still an appropriate symbol for jin as well (fast, silent, peaceful rather than predatory by nature but still capable of killing). since jin = deer, what would ryuzo best be represented by? maybe there's some textual hint, or hidden dialogue that we could go off of? maybe it's not explicit, but-

yeah, no. the game literally awards you this trophy right after you recruit him. the only way i think they could get more explicit with the shady wolf analogy is by calling the trophy "the big bad wolf", or "wolf in sheep's clothing".

ryuzo - passionate, unpredictable, violent ryuzo - being compared to a wolf is fitting, even more so when you consider the trophy refers to multiple wolves, meaning the straw hats. he was taken in by them, an unruly, masterless group, and he became their leader. despite betraying jin, he doesn't lack loyalty entirely; he only remains loyal to those he views as family after they took him in following the tournament.

his primary motivations in the narrative are staying fed, and providing for his family. he doesn't care about playing nice, or fighting clean, or lessening collateral damage. if his belly is full and his family is fed, none of that matters, and i can't think of a more apt description of that mentality than wolfish.
