As in what he said wasn’t quite right, and he acted like Yagami never redeemed himself rather than just referring to the trauma from the first game.

He‘s using this example to justify his own actions by pointing out the similarities between them. Both of them did what had to be done (from Kuwana’s perspective at least) and in both cases their actions led to the deaths of innocent people, because getting an acquittal for Okubo made Shono kill Emi. I would argue that the fact that Okubo was indeed innocent made Kuwana’s point actually almost valid. Yagami did what had to be done and was right all along. Emi’s blood is not on his hands. Using this as an analogy, Kuwana’s trying to make a point that Sawa-sensei’s blood is not on his hands as well, because you can’t be responsible for collateral damage if you just did the right thing (again, that is not my evaluation of Kuwana’s actions, it’s just that Kuwana himself is convinced that his actions were right)

      @@beefheart3198 uhh what? Lol Did we play the same series? At 9 she was lost in a Tokyo district, and would’ve died or been captured if Kiryu weren’t there. At 16-19 she survived what is commonly known to be one of the harshest industries in Japan, a mentor who was very complicated and used her for her own advantage, looked after an entire orphanage, and then only left when her presence would’ve been a harm to the kids. Her mother never told her to not run away, that’s just something Reina didn’t say. She said look after yourself, which Haruka did. And that bit of “she had a hot girl summer with a Yakuza of all people?” Seriously bro? She was running for her life from the literal Chinese mafia and sought shelter with people who proved themselves to be friends. That’s as far from a stereotypical “hot girl summer” as I can imagine lmao. And part of the point of these games is that people aren’t defined by their status in society. What does it matter that she found friends and family in yakuza? She literally already did with Kiryu, and regardless saying that is missing one of the biggest points of these stories
      TLDR: Haruka only got more mature and capable, you must be misremembering the stories. I’d suggest playing through them again so you can remember from now on, they’re top tier stories after all :)

      @@DavidHosey1 You're the one not remembering dummy. Literally the last scene as Yumi was dying, she told Haruka not to run away or she'll miss her happiness. Look up the clip if you want.
      It matters because she left home to be an idol and not contact Kiryu BECAUSE he was a Yakuza, she got followed by paparazzi because she revealed she was associated with a Yakuza! Why go get teen pregnant by one!? She ran away fine, but maybe don't get knocked up? Like she couldnt have asked her rich uncle Akiyama to help her disappear safely. You y6 apologists make me sick.

    • @DavidHosey1
      @DavidHosey1 Před 2 lety +6

      @@beefheart3198 yeah, but that scene you’re talking about isn’t literal. Why would a dying mother’s last words to her daughter be “don’t run away from home?” She was obviously being figurative, saying stand up for yourself and don’t always run at the signs of danger. If you don’t stand up in the face of adversity, you won’t be able to find a life that’s truly worth living happily in. She was also clearly basing this off of her experiences, of how she suppressed and ignored all of the problems in her life as well as the people attached to them, like Nishiki and Reina, instead of facing them and living truly. Haruka’s speech at the end of 5 is literally her doing just the opposite as her mother wanted, facing the problems and embracing the family that’s connected to them. That’s what 1’s ending meant. It was a super meaningful and impactful scene, and I had a message that Haruka embodies all the way. Yumi never told her not to run away from home, that just doesn’t make sense lol
      Now you’re just making 0 sense, sorry to say. Yes, she left everything because Kiryu was yakuza. But that’s the entire point at the end. Being an idol wasn’t her life path or dream, and she wanted to live proudly with those that she loved. That’s why she left the industry, like anyone else in her position would if they wanted to live their own way. “Why go get teen pregnant by one?” That sentence makes no sense, but if you’re acting like her pregnancy was a problem, again, that was the point. She didn’t choose to get pregnant, and Yuta was so sure that he didn’t want to be a father than he practically avoided Haruto until the kid was almost killed like 5 times. She found someone she could trust and had a single night with him (as an adult), none of that breaks the narrative or makes her dumb. It makes her human. It makes her normal. If you can’t see otherwise then that’s on you bud. And she did go to Akiyama if you remember correctly. It was partially because of her that Sky Finance was shut down, Hana was sent away, and Akiyama was homeless/on the run from the Saio. These are basic facts man, come on lol
      Sorry to say, but no one is a “Y6 apologist,” there’s nothing to try to apologize for or justify in the first place. The series is top tier in story, and 6 is one of the best out of the bunch too. Go ahead and insult me if you want, but it doesn’t change the facts of you being wrong and the story being right. Hopefully one day you’ll get to remember the story for what it really was :)
