If Yu has cut it, well he will be receiving a brogue kick to the throat and drop toe holded.


If you intend to ask him about that sequence though, make sure you have the video ready on your cell phone, because chances are, Yu will not have the slightest idea what you're talking about. Remember how he also forgot about the mysterious Chinese scroll from the dojo :king: ?

While what you say is true, come on now, we can't really hold it against him, It's been over 16 years at this point, since either of those, were actually a thing.

I think I have patched most of the S3 story together and yes, the ending does seem to be evident in that video.

But thats regarding ShenHua, Lan Di etc. I have to admit I've never really cared for the characters as much as I have about the lore of Shenmue, and the breath it crosses in terms of mystery and culture. The mirrors, the prophecy, the discovery of hidden meanings and secrets within. A lot of people hate the mysticism of the ending to S2 but I love it, and want it to go further. Not fireball Shenmue Online further, but Chinese mysteries that stretch back to long forgotten dynasties etc.

Considering the other stuff that happens in Shenmue 1, the Mysterious scroll is the most minor thing in the entire game, so I don't know why people find this so shocking.

Also it should be noted, Yu has the entire story in his head/on paper, that he goes through as a whole, unlike us, who have only Shenmue 1, and 2 to work with, so naturally we've played such enough to remember every little detail by now.

I remember trying to figure out if you can do anything with the scroll in Shenmue. Only thing I got out of it was Quizhang translating it :[

I have to ask. I need to know!


Did you get to ask?!

Haahaa I did! Took me a while to get a chance but when I did, he gave this smile and said "i kinda remember it" and laughed.

I worded the question in a way to say "no" if it was cut, or anything else if it was due to come in the story later down the line, so i took it that it remains a big scene I'm the story that he was just being silent about.
