Funny thing is, after I played this game obsessively all throughout my young adult life, when I went to work in retail\hospitality, my first boss' name was Dan Smith. I'd have a secret chuckle at the mental image of: him striding up, pulling out an unrealistic revolver, blowing a 'problem customer's' face off, and trotting away indifferently with the thing over his shoulder; every once in a while.

It's neat that Dan told the artist to get down when Handsome Black started doing his Handsome Winks. Even though the man had just threatened his life, Dan saw him as so far beneath a legitimate combatant that he instinctively tried to protect him when push came to shove.
He was Benjamin Keene, Travis Pearlharbor(I think that’s the artists name) and one of the guys playing Mahjong that lead up to the showdown That’s just the ones I know off the top of my head, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he voiced more in this game
I figured they left because Dan did. Dan clearly doesn't have much patience for these guys, so once the duel was set up, he just turned and walked out. He's muttering the line about comic book heroes as he's leaving. That's my take, anyway.
That's a pretty good theory ngl, I think Harman changed his personality by making him less talkative. We see in emir parkreiners story that dan was all talk but he wasn't fast enough to shoot emir, Which led him to die.
@@yo4584 actually if you look closely emir and dan had the same skill with a gun because they drew and fired on eachother at the same time if you look at Dan's gun closely you can see a a shot hinting that emir is somewhat in the same realm as harman and kun lan.
Dan Smith is my favorite character. I just finished this game today cuz I bought it the other day. Such an awesome game... and I just love how Dan is always so calm when it comes to doing his job haha I seriously hope they come out with a sequel man!!! best 10 bucks I've ever spent!!!
It does They just confused us because theres a lot of stuff happening Harman and Kun Lan represents the war, everytime some big shit happens, they are there Bet they exist since World War I
A good idea, but it seems obvious from Pearlharbor's death that he didn't dictate their actions, only prophesized them. I have no idea why tbh asides to make him silly, in addition to his "FINE!" line.
would have been funnier if he just started shooting while they were talking: "You'll pay for blacks de-*BLAM BLAM BLAM* OH SHIT *BLAM* STOP AND LET ME TAL-*BLAM*
@SawdustProductions actually,he had MANY parts in the game.He was Benjamin Keane,Trevor Pearlharbor,Kenjiro Matsuoka AND the Handsome Men fight Announcer.
@NBluth I know it was the lead ranger. I think he said that because he was forced to leave before he wanted to. He was forced to leave because the writer wrote it that way.
Mmm, I know that now. This was back when I couldn't immediately pick a Steve Blum voice out of a crowd :P (and it still sounds like there's some Jack Black mixed in there XP)
Why at 2:01 does the red handsome man say "wait im not finished with you yet" was there a mess up in the script wouldn't it make more sense for dan to say that line?
@@peppermillers8361 yeah I see now that does make sense, it is odd because Dan says something right after. Probably should of done footstep sounds or something
I didn't like this section of the game. The game had a very dark, interesting tone but this was just juvenile. The story went from selling children for their organs to Power Rangers. I also didn't care for the anime in this section. It looks a little crude, like an anime from the 80's. I did loved the style of animation from the Cloudman chapter however. Simple but very artistic and cool looking.

Problem customers = heaven smile
When he gives you a raise: 0:25
When he fired someone: "this is too easy"
LOL
It's Dan Smith - my boss!

"It's like Dan is stuck in 24/7 badass mode." I couldn't have said it any better than that.
It's neat that Dan told the artist to get down when Handsome Black started doing his Handsome Winks. Even though the man had just threatened his life, Dan saw him as so far beneath a legitimate combatant that he instinctively tried to protect him when push came to shove.
Killer7 would make a good anime
well there is an official comic, you could look for it
I really think it won't. It's perfect as a game, anything else will ruin some of its magic
@@Nov-5062A movie would be Killer
@@yovidal4really???
@@steelingcable6350 yes
Fuckin hell, Dan's voice is smoothe as butter
Not as smooth as him dashing over and placing that oversized revolver right under Black’s head
It's actually the same actor who voiced Jarl Bulgruuf from Skrim and Lord Saddler from RE4.
It's funny because Steve Blum actually had a part in this game.
he was at least 4 characters
I know he was definitely Benjamin Keane
He was Benjamin Keene, Travis Pearlharbor(I think that’s the artists name) and one of the guys playing Mahjong that lead up to the showdown

@xuanthanhnguyen4856 oh ok. I just looked at the scene again and just realized that you were right
It's Dan Smith, THE MAN. I love this game.
Wow...Dan's voice so calming and smooth...yet...so bad ass D:
"You think you guys can kill me!?"
Dan Smith the badass!
One of my favourite scenes!
Dan Smith is my favorite character. I just finished this game today cuz I bought it the other day. Such an awesome game...
and I just love how Dan is always so calm when it comes to doing his job haha I seriously hope they come out with a sequel man!!! best 10 bucks I've ever spent!!!
"Dan Vs. The Handsome Men." HANDSOME MEEEEEENNNN!!!!
This game is pure class. Dan is the man!
Dan Smith - The Original Badass
"You think you guys can kill me!?"
Great line from Dan
he’s already dead, he went to visit the devil
"You think you guys can kill ME?" God Dan is such a pro.
Dan Smith - the epitome of cool
Man I love this game so much. Made no fucking sense but it was fucking awesome.
It does
They just confused us because theres a lot of stuff happening
Harman and Kun Lan represents the war, everytime some big shit happens, they are there
Bet they exist since World War I
A good idea, but it seems obvious from Pearlharbor's death that he didn't dictate their actions, only prophesized them.
I have no idea why tbh asides to make him silly, in addition to his "FINE!" line.
who challenges someone to a duel to the death at four in the morning?
me
Time square is the least busy at 4, they want to make sure people dont get hurt
Someone with an intense work ethic.
OH BOY 4AM
@@AquaFan1998 Making sure that people don't get hurt...sweet. =)
Dan would win. Collateral Shot can't be beat.
would have been funnier if he just started shooting while they were talking: "You'll pay for blacks de-*BLAM BLAM BLAM* OH SHIT *BLAM* STOP AND LET ME TAL-*BLAM*
Will Suda ever explain the significance of the handsome men wearing sports bras
Well they are handsome
Its really easy to make a case for this game as the most underrated of all time imo
"Your a lucky guy you know that?" that's exactly what a smartass assassin would say before he shoots you in the face :)
Who is here From mattyburritos animation?
I am
Me
Dan is the freaking MAN.
Dan's voice is bad ass
HANDSOME WINK!
COLLATERAL SHOT!
So funny how violent the game was, the anime cutscene was very tame.
Dan is SEXY
I need to replay this. The last time was in 2010 and before that 2005.
Hopefully it will get a remaster. I've heard some rumors.
It got a remaster a few years ago 🤦♂️
@@henrynelson9301 My bad. I meant a remaster for *consoles* because i don't give two flying shits about PC gaming.
@@datatsushi2016 ah damn, the game is relatively cheap on sale and could literally run on any potato pc but thats if you care enough
"YOU CAME?!" I think he came.
@SawdustProductions
actually,he had MANY parts in the game.He was Benjamin Keane,Trevor Pearlharbor,Kenjiro Matsuoka AND the Handsome Men fight Announcer.
One of my favorite cutscenes in all of gaming
I wish they'd make an anime of this. that white shirt guy sounds like a cross between steve blum and jack black lol
@BluelightSpike Yup, and most modern animated/video game Wolverines
2D Dan got that Spike Spiegel looking ass
if Dan can kill black in one shot, then why didn't Blue die in one hit (even if you shot him in the head) when you fought him.
Dylan Abernethy i actually killed him with one shot (probably becomes I maxed out Dan's skills XD god I love dan~ )
More than one to be exact.
Trevor, Handsome Black, and Garcian disliked this. (Garcian wishes he was as cool as Dan)
But he was a dan
Goddamn it Dan. Why do you have to be such a badass all the time.
SLDKJDFKLDSFLJLJF
@NBluth I know it was the lead ranger. I think he said that because he was forced to leave before he wanted to. He was forced to leave because the writer wrote it that way.
No way man, Garcian's a bad ass :P
Mmm, I know that now. This was back when I couldn't immediately pick a Steve Blum voice out of a crowd :P (and it still sounds like there's some Jack Black mixed in there XP)
Yay :P wasn't sure as I didn';t know his name, the characters I mean, so I cold check the cast
... POWERRANGERSSSS. That's just great.
HANDSOME WINK
@TheRealMisterDerp I didn't think I had such power!
@MRWWAYSS
is it mindblown that his voice is also Gopher from Winnie The Pooh?
Steve Blum did the voice for Spike... Right?
(Cowboy Bebop)
god dam it i want my Dan smith anime!
Agreed 100%
you're right. He didn't write anything after Dan's appearance. Do you know of any games as good or better than this?
More like 110% badass
@NickStedmon You mean a dual-machete wielding, sniper, AND the best rocker in the world? Fuck year
COLLATERAL SHOT
At 1:48 Dan shoulda done *COLLATERAL SHOT*
HANDSOOOOOOOME WINK!
Is this an anime as well as a game? I'm kinda weirded, but ZeroPunctuation actually likes this game a lot... I can see why!
@goniloc Lets hope the day never comes that he goes after dan smith.
its more like 8 vs. 8
power rangers
Steven Jay Blum's voice is badasser.
It's Dan Smith....THE MAN!!!
Dan owns!!!
Who do you guys think would win?
Solid Snake or Dan Smith
I would go for Snake (my opinion =])
There's something wrong with this thing, it keeps jamming. See?
shud make a 3 or 4 episode anime outa this game
Handsome men♬?? Ayoo
Why at 2:01 does the red handsome man say "wait im not finished with you yet" was there a mess up in the script wouldn't it make more sense for dan to say that line?
No, Dan was just walking away and they were shocked that he didn't stay around, it's just communicated poorly.
@@peppermillers8361 yeah I see now that does make sense, it is odd because Dan says something right after. Probably should of done footstep sounds or something
1:26 = .....you're fucked. Face to face and stare at him right in the eyes.
Dan smith versus Golgo 13. Neither one or Golgo .
Dan likes it rough... xDDD
Sorry, I had to make that joke...
This gam blows my mind
SO GOD DAMN HAAAAAAPPPPYYYY
1:21 1:28
Is this anime?
Nope
It's a game cut scene
Hah, great sequence.
I never figured out, though, who was that shouting "Wait, I'm not finished with you yet!!"?
The red leader of course.
What kind of stupid and childish question.
Ima keep it 110, its not that deep
oh my god get a life

Man really assumes every 80's anime looks crude and thinks a Suda51 game doesn't go off the absolute rails at times.
that's why i don't like anime in general... it's all simple.
