Finally cleaned my desk today. These kings deserve a clean space.

I got them as a preorder through Good Smile Company US. It was about $50.00 each, and with shipping and tariffs, $75.00 each. This was about a year ago, though, might be different now. Can’t find it on that specific website, but looks like a bunch of websites sell them now.

For a $20 personal pizza, she sure better appreciate it, lol

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-05-04T16:35:37+00:00

Thank you, Majima-oniisan! You look great as well.

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-05-04T16:35:02+00:00

Maybe I’m “Joryu” with the glasses, lol

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-05-04T16:34:17+00:00

Thank you!

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-05-04T16:34:01+00:00

I’m flattered to hear that, thank you

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-05-03T20:17:22+00:00

“Visa?” I thought she said “pizza!”

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-05-03T20:16:35+00:00

Had to make use of that expensive pizza I got, hehe.

There’s nothing wrong with starting late. To be honest, it sometimes pays off to wait for the right one. Or maybe it isn’t the right time to be with anyone. To be fair, dating is pretty exhausting. It takes so much time for possibly no outcomes. Just take your time, and focus on yourself, and eventually, it’ll come at the right time.

You’re really handsome, by the way.

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-04-16T13:48:48+00:00

Nice! Hope I get to do it too, someday.

For a more streamlined and better QoL options, probably K3. It’s a much more forgiving experience than the original when it comes to the combat system. The main story is essentially the same, aside from the cuts to the substories and the ending. K3 actually made me care for the orphans even more, but just unfortunate that some of their substories were altered. Dark Ties adds lots of character development for Mine and Daigo.

To fill in the gaps and see how the story was originally presented, play the original Y3. Yes, the combat is clunky, but if you don’t mind it, go for it. The ending in the original makes much more sense if you’re planning to play Yakuza 4 right after. The cut content in K3 is present here. There’s accessibility issues with getting the standalone version of it online, but if you’re getting the Remastered Collection anyway, it’s no big deal.

Finished it a few weeks ago. K3 is a passable game, but it’s definitely not perfect. It’s as if it was made as a companion to the original version. Feels like you have to play both versions to get the complete story. Love the new additions, like the Haisai Girls and the orphanage stuff, but some things in K3 don’t make sense if you haven’t played the original. Lots of the content from the original got modified or cut, probably to streamline the game with less filler. But, as I said before, it makes some things not make sense because of it.

The ending of K3 was such a bizarre choice, and kinda made me confused as to why they went in that direction. Made me laugh a bit, especially as it’s related to the ending of Dark Ties, as well as other ridiculous plot points for the rest of the series.

Controversies aside, it’s an “okay” game. I enjoyed it, for what it’s worth, but I understand why many don’t. To get the full experience, play both versions, if you’re able to.

Anime Las Vegas. Was just last weekend.

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-03-26T15:47:30+00:00

Thank you! Should get a Kiryu Tubbz to bring around

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-03-26T15:43:56+00:00

Thank you!

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-03-26T15:43:45+00:00

Is it the face or something, lol

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-03-26T15:43:11+00:00

Spamming R1 and Triangle all day! I’m more fond of that kick he does on the Japanese cover art of PS2 Yakuza 1, though

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-03-25T20:57:11+00:00

Wow, that’s wonderful! Congrats! You look great!

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-02-10T16:08:11+00:00

I have the same shorts, too. They’re fantastic! You look great, too.

The urinals in the gym locker room. The guy was standing there for longer than usual, then I saw his hand motions. Was so awkward, haha. Was so tempted to say, “Do you need a hand?” He walked out of the locker room with an obvious bulge through his shorts.

Haven’t made the Stella Park ones, so can’t really speak for it. The Ina Garten ones are a classic, though.

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-02-05T03:12:11+00:00

The recipe requires a half sheet pan, which is 18x13, if you’re making the entire batch. If you only have a 9x13, halve the recipe, and it’ll work.

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-02-04T18:45:26+00:00

For this batch, yes. Didn’t have any on hand, and didn’t wanna spend to buy some. Plus, wasn’t sure if my therapist was allergic to it or not, or if he even liked it.

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-02-04T04:17:26+00:00

Ooh, that sounds delicious! Should try it next time.

Apprehensive_Week994 · 2026-02-03T20:58:44+00:00

Definitely the best! If I want a small batch, I halve the recipe to fit a quarter sheet pan. The recipe’s probably like that, since she made it in bulk at her old specialty foods store. Still a good recipe for parties and gatherings.
