The fact that this game was shadow dropped with only one trailer and that the main villain big reason for the mind control stuff is that marketing is hard, is hilariously ironic

And you know what? It's actually really good writing. It's realistic (Mom in Futurama does something similar; why rule the world when you can be rich and stress free?), still has stakes, and is hilariously played (like when he almost spills his plan to Chai's ridiculous super villian assumption). Plus it's a nice change of pace and naturally subverts expectations (without forcibly doing it just to sound smart).

Watching the cat at 5:54 made me lose my fucking composure. Obviously this game had its silly moments until this point, but watching a robotic cat slowly strut its way towards you with the low eyes and jazzy movements was just too fuckin hilarious.

God i remember after Kale attacks Chai and Korsica from the robot, if you talk to CNMN he goes on a rant about how the robot was made so detailed as if you were gonna fight it At first i thought it was hinting that they wanted to put a boss fight there but couldnt, but then you (technically) fight the robot like a stage or two later

I swear this coffee stuff has escalated so much in the story First the coffee machine has a firmware update, and only gives decaf, later kale tells the robots to shutdown every part of the campus shutting down the coffee machine, kale complains that the coffee machine was shut down, later finds out that the coffee machine only gives out decaf because the robots told him and doesn't get his cortado, during the final fight when you die on phase 1 or 2 he says "now time for my cortado."
The firmware update was done by a disgruntled robo worker, who got so fed up of his job in Jojo's Office, that he ended up making every machine dispense decaf.
@@IcePho he was then sent to a new office in the lava construction area of R&D were you can find his note and the 2 hr robots talking about him. I think it's behind a lava fall in the second r&d track

Honestly Hi-Fi Rush has some of the best humor I've ever seen from a video game, and it's super consistent too. All throughout the runtime it's perfect.
Ya know, most of these scenes make just as much sense in context as they do out of context. Chai's Random nature is where most of these Out of context moments come from It's what makes these scenes, and Chai, so funny.
Dose anyone realize the days without defects is over 2.7 million years. Haven't played the game but holy moly that is one long streak to be ending. (~2,722911.75 years)
Well, that's probably (at the time Hi Fi Rush is set) when history was first recorded, so Chai mat potentially be the first defect Vandelay has ever had
12:56 no this part sounds all fun & games but when i did my initial very hard play through (first time i played the game ever and i chose very hard). I had to constantly redo and die in this exact arena AND hear this pun EVERY TIME I DIED..... ....it shocked me
For me it was the second electric floor fight. I love this game but man I really wish they hadn't put some of these checkpoints before the dialogue or at least have it not play if you restart checkpoint or die. I still can't get "Show's over Mimosa" out of my head xD
"Why does a Coffee Machine need a firmware update" now THAT is the question, WHY DO Coffee Machines need a bloody firmware update?!?! Since when have we come to this madness!!!

You know. If Mimosa actually even TRIED to do her job properly, the game wouldn’t exist. I mean seriously Kale’s whole goal was to use SPECTRA to increase the Vandelay consumer base because they couldn’t figure out how to sell stuff and Make a profit. That’s Marketing’s job. Zanzo’s overspending was counteracted by Rouquefort’s frugality. (Albeit Roquefort most likely embezzled some Funds for his Lavish office and tech.) REKKA is probably one of the better members, increasing production quality and quantity about 300% each quarter. Korsica actually did her job and was damned good at it too. Mimosa was the biggest failure, making things sound good, but failing to take in important data about what does and doesn’t work.
The more i look at Zanzo, the more o realize just hoe much his design and mannerisms are seemingly inspired by Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventures. He even has the funny poses overlayed with flashy text and some serious shading work.
He acts like such a teenager it's hard to believe he's literally in his mid-20s lmao

He is just a business man. Besides, if he controls the whole world's population, more paperwork.
He tried the CEO mindset but it was too much work
It makes the fact that Hi-Fi Rush had no advertising and was still a success even funnier.
I was thinking when that got revealed that “I swear to god, 2017 was 6 years ago, and this better not be a reprise of that year”.

Zanzo being voiced by Dio was one of the best things I've seen in a while.
Holy crap, so that’s why! No wonder the devs made those cutscenes, I thought they did it for shits and giggles.
He isn’t though. His English and Japanese voices are different.
Zanzo's voice actor is Todd Haberkorn and... well he did voiced someone from Jojo - Ungalo, one of Dio's sons
He's not. Takehito Koyasu voices Dio. Kale is voiced by him. Zanzo is voiced by Wataru Takagi, who also voices Okuyasu.
Zanzo isn't Dio in either... He is Ungalo though. Kale is Dio in Japanese though
