If Iwao didn't die, we wouldn't be in this mess anyway. On the 29th, we should all unsign the petition. That would really send Sega a message.

And in support of Iwao we should all vote for Segata Sanshiro instead. I like it!

You guys do realize that you all can vote for more than one character, right? =P All that would really happen is "0_0 Ryo's goin down... oh, there there he goes up again".

BTW, you can thank this guy for his sudden surge:

That's Karim from 500K.

And this. At 1:58 ish.

I only voted for Ryo, but I might vote for Vectorman. I didn't understand how to play that game at all, but he's definitely a classic Sega character.

Karim seems like a cool fellow. Also, it was good to see the t-shirt/hoodie in real life. I might snag a Hazuki t-shirt, not wild about the hoodie.

Her "third-eye" mole is adorable.

So an interesting conversation about Ryo has come up on the topic about what people want out of him, and you guys being fans, I thought you might have useful stuff.

We're coming up with ideas for Ryo's vehicle(bikes are out for balance reasons), and everyone's mostly divided between 2 things; a transforming forklift, or a transforming arcade cabinet that morph between 3 games Ryo played; Outrun(land),Hang-On(sea), and Space Harrier(air). It's basically boiled down to which of the two people would prefer; what do you guys as Shenmue fans think?

I can't imagine the kind of tricky shapes you'd need to have a coherent transforming arcade cabinet. A sailing/flying forklift would probably be the funniest thing I'd ever see in my life..

I think he should ride on a Phoenix mirror, which then transforms into a phoenix , and then a speedboat XD

A giant duck solves the problem with Ryo racing on air and water. Question is how does a forklift/motorcycle transform into a giant duck.

guess logic will have to be thrown out the window. He can always ride on a four wheeled orange/yellow winning soda can. At least it'll have the same colour as a duck

LMao exactly^ . No logic needed
