After playing the previous games, I was excited to see what new things were brought to the table for Yakuza 4. I was carried along the convoluted and preposterous story by the fancy kicks of Akiyama, the handcuff special attacks of Tanimura and the brute strength of Saejima. It seemed like a really solid step in the right direction, with Tanimura’s grapple heavy fight style being the highlight in my opinion. However, I was stopped in my tracks when Saejima met Haruka. I’m sure I won’t be the only person mentioning this, but watching Saejima consider raping Haruka really shocked me - I had to double take to understand what was being implied. Arguably worse was Kiryu seeing that moment, and having no reaction to his adopted daughter being in danger. That affected me to the point where it soured my experience of the game almost completely; a real shame.

As you will hear on the podcast, I had exactly the same reaction to that scene. Thank you for bringing it up! (Leon)
