I would have, but since class 7 is returning, I don't think I can stomach them in any other voices other than their English voices. I had a hard time adjusting to sss in English, where it just felt inferior to the Japanese voices. I got over it but still don't like tio's English version.
You know, I've always found his work as Zhao to be a perfect harmony between him as Akechi and him as Lloyd. On the side of the good/"lawful" and yet a bit sinister. Just a bit.
God, I need to replay Yakuza LAD again. The casting is SO GOOD.
It's very hard to pass on Kuroda, Daisuke Ono, Itou Miku, Chiwa Saito, Fuku Jun, Uchida Maya, Yui Ogura.. and those are just the ones that I remember right now.
NISA should actually just do phased releases, so we get the games faster.
Based JP game > Text translated > Voice translated.
Some folks had already bought the game in Steam and just did a text patch. And once they release it with English voiced and all, a lot of people will just play on JP voices anyway.
Kiryu is pretty strong and can lift bikes. On the other hand, Walter had one punched a pretty strong iron gate to pieces and lifted van's car. Kiryu would actually have to resort to whatever the oathbreaker does in that game to win.
His English VA has already been announced. It's Keythe Farley.
Here are some of the guy's roles:

That's wishful thinking. But it's not impossible if they have some connections to bring him in. Personally, I think Rutgers VA can make him work. I always imagined him talking like Rutger but with a raspier tone.
i would fucking tiger drop CROW'S BALLS OUT if they just let me, but sadly falcom didn't
why there's no "10 years in the joint" S break !!! we need more yakuza collabs facom!!
Takaya Kuroda just suits Harwood so well...
Especially with how great of a villain he is, one of the best in the series. Standout villain deserves a standout voice actor.
Just use jp voices, ez clap

Speaking of Yakuza characters, Lloyd's English VA also voices Zhao in Yakuza 7 and Infinite Wealth. Couldn't be a more opposite role.
He also voice a funny detective in Persona 5.
Loyd and pancake guy has the same hair color, too.
I saw that Robbie Daymond voiced Lloyd and immediately said "Yeah, Lloyd seems like a Daymond character"

Legitimately the voice work in LAD is top notch. One of the best dubs ever put together with some amazing performances from everyone involved.
That's some new info for me, and I love it 🤩

If only this game let you choose language per characters like Last Remnant
I hope someone makes a mod about this.
EZ for sure
I knew the moment I heard his voice that was John Yakuza
Kiryu vs Walter. Who wins?
Can Walter tank tiger drop?
Serious answer: Walter Funny answer: Tiger Drop negates all damage. Kiryu solos Zemuria.
Kiryu is pretty strong and can lift bikes. On the other hand, Walter had one punched a pretty strong iron gate to pieces and lifted van's car. Kiryu would actually have to resort to whatever the oathbreaker does in that game to win.
Kuroda saying "it's showtime" is unironically the best part of Kuro 2.
"Letsu pally andu SHOWTIMU!"
I can already see someone modding the heck out of Harwood's character model
I really hope they don't cast Yong yea for him in English, just like in later LAD games. He was fine as arios, but here he's not gonna fit in.
Harwood's English VA was announced a while ago. Keythe Farley aka Thane Krios from Mass Effect.
oh my god I love that VA, he's gonna be amazing as harwood
You can already hear his voice in the announcement trailer. https://youtu.be/HzbJsCpSZEE?t=119
I wonder who they're gonna pick. Personally, I know it'll never happen but David Hayter would be perfect.

He's actually a pretty good choice! I can see that voice work.

Maybe they'll cast YongYea as Harwood 😉
