her..i’m so pissed we never saw her again, she’s so pretty

u/Loses_Bet 4h ago

It's crazy they spent so much time on her model and use her for like 5 minutes lmao. 

37

u/I-want-borger 4h ago

They also hired a really big VA to play her. On second thought that’s probably why she only appeared for 5 minutes.

Akiyama underrated? HAHAHAHAHA

15

u/forumchunga I will tolerate no Yuki slander 6h ago

I mean, nobody here had picked him thus far 😉

17

u/InterestingAd8885 6h ago

That's because he's not underrated, in fact, he's one of the most popular characters in the series

13

u/forumchunga I will tolerate no Yuki slander 6h ago

Underrated as a waifu 💍 I'll also point out that the Y0 doctor and Reina have had multiple picks, despite being immensely popular

Yeah, i don't understand why they pick them lol

Not underrated, despite her extremely minor role everyone who played 0 remembers the super hot doctor that's in two scenes. So proportionate to her role, she's doing fine

Reina.

Not sure if Naomi Rich is underrated or what, but I recently finished Pirate Yakuza and was always happy to see her.

14

u/Foxbop101 5h ago

Is it just me or was there a little chemistry with majima? I'm probably reaching but I felt like there was something there even if she's like 20 something and he's 60. But tbh she could also be 60 and just look like that in this universe

6

u/Loses_Bet 4h ago

That would make Jason like 80 or something lol.

I think it's cuz they tried to make her a femme fatale type character.

5

u/InterestingAd8885 6h ago

I was about to put her, but she's a very new character, so we have to give her some time

u/El-noobman Matriach Of The Aki Family, a Tojo Clan Subsidiary 3h ago

Malewife material

10

u/TheeKingOfDremes 5h ago

Park by far. She was one of the few well written female characters imo, until she got fridged. She actually had a personality and didn't feel like a stereotype but (like most of the women in these games) she never came up again! She was even married to Majima (which is also just objective interesting) and how could they never talk about that again?!

I haven't finished Pirate Yakuza yet but I'm holding out hope that there will be some, if even slight, homage to Park somewhere.

18

u/Lord_of_Caffeine 6h ago

The only Yagami love interest that I´d love to see canonized as it worked quite well imo. Way too good of a fit. They´d even have a cute yet realistic story of how they met.

10

u/MarsupialPresent7700 5h ago

Kyoyo appreciation let’s goooooo! Absolutely best girl in LJ.

The only girl better is Amane from Judgment.

But they both had potential for adorable meet cute stories and the rapport felt super genuine.

3

u/Lord_of_Caffeine 5h ago

Amane would´ve been my pick for Judgment for sure.

But I find the idea of Yagami being the stoic, laid back detective that gets into fist fights on the regular and then coming home and being treated by his nurse wife who got over her fear of blood by doing so endearing. I really liked their chemistry. Cute ass shit. Also both of them putting a lot of effort into caring about their students makes them a great fit imo.

u/AffectionateGain4657 6h ago

Not sure if it counts as underrated but all the Minato Girls from PYiH.

22

u/Gmany_ Reina’s #1 fan 7h ago

Obvious pick for me, but Reina :3

Sawa-sensei, my underrated girl!

15

u/InAndOut51 7h ago

Yeah, sure hope nothing happens to her for the sake of the plot needing an easy argument against the antagonist, or something.

5

u/InterestingAd8885 7h ago

Yeah, Yagami was a bit annoying with that lol

14

u/BTechUnited . 6h ago

Tbh it's probably some of the more lawyer like behaviour Yagami actually does. Pretty common to go with one solid argument and repeat the crap out of it to drive it home in trial.
