Breaking news!: Iwao is seventh generation? & more!

[LanDC]

I have just discovered a very neat bit of information! In the information where Ryo is searching for the Phoenix Mirror in the newly found basement, there is a line of Ryo saying " It's the Hazuki family tree, my father is the seventh generation" As we know, there is no Hazuki family tree found in the basement! This is some pretty cool news, this means the Hazuki family has been around 350 to 400 years then? I got a semi converted sound clip of Ryo saying it, here. http://www.fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planetxbox/shenmuedojo/modclips/seventh.mp3

Also, take a look at these wierd textures I got from the basement. It gives me the feeling of the head from project berkely.. But this almost looks like a doornob. A secret door in the secret basement??





To end off this neat post, I found some other unused line of Ryo saying.. "A martial arts book. But it's all in Chinese" Then he says "I'll ask master Chen to read it." There is no martial arts BOOK in Chinese found.. Only the stab armor SCROLL. Pretty interesting is it not? Oh and one of Ryo saying "Peoples..What? This looks like money." Peoples republic of China perhaps? I'm guessing some Chinese money was originally going to be in the basement.. Anyway, here are the last 3 clips, in the order I listed them. They are converted with the wav2adpcm program. I had to change the speed and everything, but this is the best they could come out.

sweet dude, you are god, LOL

Hey I should also mention.. The Qing Dynasty lasted between the years of 1644 - 1911. I am thinking there is some connection with the Qing Dynasty and the Hazuki family.. Also, maybe something with the Seven stars sword.

These are the Shenmue dojo forums my man.

[Miles Prower]

Awesome. Imagine if this family tree is still somewhere on the discs...

[Daemos]

Great find Matt.

Nice find

I made a connection with the seven stars sword. The Big Dipper has 7 stars and is a frequently viewed constellation in the real Gui Lin. There is also a cave in the real Gui Lin called the Seven Stars Cave where the constellation is viewed. Do you remember Ryo looking at the Big Dipper in Kowloon when he was chained to Ren? Pieced together from some old threads I saw last night, I know the the Chi You is a real myth from the Miao people. Miao is something we will definitely see in Shenmue 3. This whole game is very mythically based, as is also shown in the bad ending of Shenmue 2 and the fact of Dragon and Phoenix meeting. I judge, because of the mythical nature of the game, that what I say about Gui Lin and the Seven Stars has something to do with that sword.

7 stars and 7 genarations hmmm

= 12 unknowns.........

More things for me to think about?

Anyway, Lan DC have you tried walking through the walls of the basement maybe there might be something there?

[LanDC]

Yeah I have. There's nothing behind the walls :( Well there is something though. Once you walk behind the wall that the mirror is on, you are walking around IN the reflection, and 2 Ryo models appear
