@@lisamedcalf6986 The OST probably was released at some point, but only in Japan and as part of the limited collector's edition. The biggest problem with a decent chunk of music in the Yakuza games is that Sega somehow can't work out the international distribution rights for the purpose of appearing in a video game. Which is why in Yakuza Kiwami, we didn't get the fucking epic and amazing Recieve You Reborn in the west.

Copyright is weird and I want to understand this shit just so I can know why great games keep getting some of the best tracks left out entirely, but international copyright is a whole other can of worms...
I like to view this game as Majima's coming of age story. Like, I feel that his whole story revolves around him breaking bonds imposed upon him by various parties like Shimano, Sagawa, and even himself, ultimately culminating in him discarding his socially accepted persona "Goro Majima- Sotenbori's Lord of the Night" choosing instead to live in whatever way he finds fun. It's the tale of a man learning to accept himself for who he wants to be even when others are telling him to be something else. I think this fits, in that 24 Hour Cinderella allows us an early insight into Majima's true nature before he completes that journey through the socially acceptable window of karaoke. and that is why Yakuza 0 is still my favorite :)
every night i dream of majima singing this to me and every day i awake crying knowing its not real i cant take it anymore the tears and heartache is unbearable
Y'all remember when Majima had to fake being a boyfriend to this one girl for her dad, but her dad by the end fell head over heels for Majima and begged him to be his son in law. Just... that a such a normal reaction to the International treasure that is Goro Majima.
@@zach_the_guy5257 Come on Kiryu has always been trying to just be a GOOD BOI. He shouldn't be the dragon, he should be the good doggo thats all Im sayingl
This game just pure perfection... And 80% developers out there still think "we need the biggest map ever, but all you can do there is just driving around and just killing cops all day, the player never bored of that"
The Yakuza series teaches us all that you don't have to kill a single person to have fun in a video game, all you need to do is beat bad guys to a bloody pulp :D
It's only after seeing the english translation that I realize how both Majima's and Kiryu's main karaoke songs basically theme perfectly to their respective storylines in Yakuza 0. The fucking writing of this game istg.
tbh id agree with you, he mayve lost a few marbles in that year he spent in the hole ( i mean hell who wouldnt have? being treated the way he was, but for the sake of spoilers i dont wanna elaborate on that too much) but they're still mostly there, imo i believe the whole "mad dog of shimano" face he exhibits is his way of making himself forget makoto because he didnt wanna get her into any more danger or suffer any more heartbreak after what she'd gone through in her life, so her dating/marrying a yakuza would have been paramount to her living in constant danger because of his lifestyle.
@@MikeEzeOfficial I've seen the Japanese version of that scene, and all I'll say is it's bittersweet, but it does help bring closure for majima and help him move on
seriously, like even the disco songs sound like real songs from that time period (granted, a couple if not most of them are based on real songs); I love how much effort was put into making Yakuza 0 genuinely feel like the 80's, from the music to the fashion, and good lord did they succeed!
so majima has the literal balls to sing a song about CINDERELLA in front of 4 people including a kid honestly i thought the name "24 hour cinderella" was just a random name, i never thought it would actually be related to the fairy tale
gaminggoddess85 I cosplayed him and sang Get to the top and had that as ringtone on my mobile for more than two years. Majima is the epitome of manliness even while he dresses as a woman or sings girly anisongs. (This one seemed to me a lot like the perfect opening for a shojo anime tbh)
Why do you care, dude? We're all gamers here who enjoy a masterpiece like Yakuza 0. Of course there will be girls that like it but, it's like whatever, man.

I remember on the worst acid trip I had in my entire life I attempted to make myself feel better by putting this song on but it turned into literal gibberish and felt like it kept on going forever, repeating parts over and over. I felt like I was going insane. Thanks 👍

I love how when you encounter Majima in the dance club in Kiwami he's wearing the outfit from the FMV portion of the song and he says he just had it stored in a closest for the past 17 years. Also an instrumental of 24 Hour Cinderella is playing when you start talking to him. As someone who never played the original PS2 version of Yakuza 1 and only recently got into the series thanks to 0 and Kiwami I almost keep wanting to call 0 "the first game" since Kiwami makes a lot of callbacks to 0's story (even in ways I didn't expect, like seriously I never expected the Pocket Circuit kids to be characters that would actually return).
Both Kiwami and Kiwami 2 was made with Yakuza 0 engine, which is why there's a lot of callback to Yakuza 0 stories It sure does makes Nishiki's descent much more impactful after Yakuza 0 though
![Machine Gun Kiss [FULL English/Romaji SUB] - Yakuza 5 Karaoke](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/WhcqjTXaeqU/mqdefault.jpg)
Never forget that Majima knows the lyrics to this song off the top of his head.
Ari I tend to forget there was a sub story where he sings this song in public.
Which Sub story exactly?
The living statue street performer on the bridge
I played that sub first, and cracked up bad at the song. Imagine my happiness when I hit the karaoke bar and Goro starts singing this. Incredible!
Also don't forget he apparently actually owned the costume he imagined performing this song in, while living in a tiny shack in Sotenboori. And kept it for nearly 20 years afterwards.
You just have to love the fact that these people went above and beyond, singing full versions of songs and placing it into the soundtrack
Gotta believe that. Props to the actors dude.
