discover that the game's yokohama is absolutely rammed with weirdos who all want you to do their weirdo dirty work for them consider these our seven favorite yakuza sub stories that are weird even for yakuza enjoy hey you there ever thought about entering the wild world of dragon cart huh dragon cart the hell's that with all the constant punching and being punched even the most hardened yakuza needs to relax and unwind occasionally and yakuza like a dragon gives your character ichiban kasiga plenty of opportunities to do just that with the series usual assortment of bars gambling dens and of course karaoke spots [Music] new for like a dragon though and certainly something we weren't expecting to see is a full-on cart racing game introduced in the substory welcome to dragon cards get ready to eat dust [Music] a surprisingly solid racer dragon cart has you racing your go-kart around the streets of yokohama collecting dragon rings using boost pads for extra speed and collecting power-ups that include an actual rocket launcher to use against your rivals speaking of rivals you aren't just competing against other people looking for a fun way to kill time everyone else you're racing takes it incredibly seriously and they include two different kinds of wrestler a casino dealer gangsters and bikers which all seems a bit extreme for a tourist attraction in a popular public park i gave you all your say but damn if you don't talk a lot of trash you guys got me pretty fired up but you're gonna be eating my dust next race so be sure to open wide some talk you better remember those words i'll be looking forward to it casker can you try and not turn everything you do into a desperate life or death struggle against the odds appreciate it thanks [Music] introduced in the sidequest old cinema paradiso another leisure option open to casa go and he doesn't feel like wailing on people with a baseball bat is the seagull cinema this fine old movie house is home to a wide selection of classic films all of which are unbelievably boring [Music] which wouldn't ordinarily be a problem except the fact that ichiban has spoken to the cinema's owner and is now therefore his best friend as is often the case with ichiban now it would be rude for ichiban to fall asleep during the film which means your cinema going experience now becomes a desperate struggle to stay awake as represented by you fending off assaults by ram-headed sleep demons who are trying to get you to nod off by firing balls of sleep energy at you there's also a guy with a chicken head and some symbols but don't attack him despite you know every fiber of your being urging you to do just that to make it through the entire film without passing out from boredom and you'll be rewarded with a personality boost and the knowledge that you've helped out an old man who just loves classic cinema and has also fallen asleep great glad i bothered you this is absurd why would the yakuza meet baby formula they're shaking the guy down for baby formula a surprisingly large percentage of a yakuza's life is spent running around doing minor errands for randos or at least it is as far as yakuza like a dragon is concerned where you're constantly doing things like having to go and fetch hot water to help a stranger make some baby formula to give to a baby he thinks he heard inside a building you happen to be wandering past yeah when you've completed this seemingly innocent fetch quest you discover that the baby in question is in fact a middle-aged yakuza boss with a very specific fetish who makes all his subordinates indulge in his extracurricular activities with him sorry to bother you boys yo let's go yes goodbye not so fast chief this leads to a fight in which at least you can be confident that the opposing side don't have any concealed weapons i mean where would they put them win the fight and everyone resolves this big misunderstanding and you join the patriarch for a celebratory toast join us why don't you huh me that's right no need to be shy ichiban you know you don't have to say yes to everything people ask you to do right ah that's god's work right there oh dear that wasn't enough time huh excuse me do you need help crossing the street well of sorts yes this being a yuck yakuza game we weren't too surprised when wandering the streets of yokohama to see a man sprinting past us leaving a trail of smoke behind him you see like four things that we're just crossing the street to visit a noodle restaurant [Music] what is truly bizarre however is the cause of the man's distress namely a super spicy batch of kimchi cooked up by this street vendor who's having trouble selling any of it on account of well the obvious side [Music] effects disheartened he gives the rest of the badge to kasiga who then like some kind of fermented cabbage santa travels around yokohama doling out kimchi to the people who need it most from the track star who can't improve his time [Music] to an old lady having trouble crossing the street you finally crossed the street to the schoolgirl who needs the motivation to run up to a train platform to declare her love to someone no one is safe from kasich's big weird part of stinky spicy cabbage that surely causes just as many problems as it solves still it seems that having spread the word sales are now booming not sure if that's a good thing [Music] foreign something else you might not expect to see in the street while strolling through yokohama is a crawfish just hanging out on the road still ichiban knows exactly what to do in this kind of situation immediately eat it bodily into the river which would normally be fine except it turns out that this crawfish was called nancy belonged to this guy who was just out taking her for her daily walk and you just hurled someone's beloved pet into the river being itchy man you can't just apologize and move on and so we find ourselves in this gritty drama about terrifying organized crime syndicates carefully examining the shells of various crawfish until we find the one that we accidentally chucked into a river and that's not even the end of it when you do return nancy to her owner it turns out that he was only taking care of her to fatten her up so he could eat her something kasich absolutely can't allow on account of how nancy is now again one of his very best friends this means you have to trek across town and spend a bunch of money to buy a premium sushi set to exchange for nancy's life which is annoying but on the plus side you do unlock nancy as a summon in battle and her special ability is called plague of pincers so on balance it's totally worth it can't wait to use that in a serious and emotional story battle nancy you and i are gonna get on just fine uh help you with what to tell you the truth i need to hop a train to tokyo as soon as possible but i don't have any clothes you don't have any clothes uh yeah all i've got are these bubbles bubbles what are you talking about here see for yourself next up on our list of weird things that absolutely aren't ichiban's problem is the situation we find ourselves in in the sub story bubble bubble toil and trouble as we can see a naked man has been kicked out of an erotic bathhouse and has only a covering of rapidly diminishing bubbles to preserve his modesty but with the way i am now i'll get caught before i even make it to the station yeah i'm begging you can i borrow your clothes instead of wishing him good luck and moving on with his i remind you desperately important quests that could determine the fate of the entire nation ichiman instead opts to help the hapless hot tubber make his way across town to a clothing store avoiding the various water sources that would wash his bubbles off that seem to have suddenly sprung up everywhere from people emptying ladles in the street to the fire department who i guess are testing their hoses makes sense persevere though and you'll make it to the clothing store at which point it's up to you to pick the right response to let the employee there allow this man in so he can clothe himself yeah hey yes it's the wrong answer but in a way it's very much the right answer ladies and gentlemen welcome to the grand animal circus we're here today at hamakita park to bring you a day of excitement and fun and don't forget to take some time to meet and greet our animals the stars of the show they're all very well behaved so don't miss this chance to make some new friends located in hamakita park the grand animal circus is an objectively bad enterprise whose entire business model appears to be making the folks from tiger king look like responsible animal owners you encounter the circus's ring master yasida three times in the park and each time he has jammed an animal into a tiny cage which they almost immediately break out of [Music] please i'm talking to our guest here first up it's a giant grizzly bear which wanders out of its cage a bad thing that's only saved by the fact that it gives us this incredible panic animation from ichiban she listens to me no matter what what a load of crap you please help me get katherine john back in her cage you then have to fist fight this bear to get it back into his cage something i don't think anyone should feel good about let's do it still yasuda must have learned his lesson from this right wrong because it happens again almost immediately only this time with a tiger hey i thought you said you two understood each other she seems pretty pissed off to me that you then also have to fight i don't miss i got this finally yasida moves onto a chimp who you guessed it immediately escapes yo and you then have to fight there she is but at least it's just a chimp right shouldn't be as hard as a bear or a tiger i mean unless it somehow managed to climb into some huge piece of industrial equipment oh [Music] click clara's on the digger the serious crime drama will probably be along right after this i expect it's coming i can feel it look i'll be real with you no more animals wait don't go casa gassan there you have it some of the weirdest substories
