Just realised that it’s Mikio and not Mikiyo. There are no other errors made in this post.

Nakahara lost his "happy uncle" vibe

Replacing established character models with actors is one thing. Replacing characterful, perfectly designed character models with bland-ass looking actors is another. I'm sure they'll all be good, but Hamazaki should be grotesque, not just some guy, and Rikiya should be a baby faced doofus with a punch perm not some twink.

Hamazaki really went from an intimidating chinese blockhead Mobster to a creepy pencil pusher that looks like he gropes people on public transportation

There’s no way the new Hamazaki can pop a duck’s head in his mouth and chew it.

Dunno why they changed Hamazaki. Kinda broke the continuity in Y4. Unless..

They took away Nakahara’s vibes, Rikiya’s waves and the essence of Hamazaki, bro

I’m still hoping for an OG costume option, feels like they replaced Kiryu’s red shirt and Rikiya’s orange with black and dark green for them both; kinda sours the Okinawa tropical vibe

This isn’t an upgrade, y3’s original characters were perfect, especially rikiya really disappointed in sell out rgg

To be fair with Hazamaki, apparently the og Va got caught in a bit of a sexual harassment scandal 3 years ago. Also from what I’ve heard Rikiya’s og Va just got to expensive and busy, which would explain why Yuta never showed up in IW.

Not gonna lie, I'm quite salty knowing that our best bud Rikiya has changed. But still hyped about everything else.
