Tony and Smith "Its him, I'm outta here" and left. No theatrics, they just ran out the door. Past Tony's whiny voice, which you eventually get used to and hes not really providing any type of comic relief. When you meet them at the harbor, they just say they don't know anything about the Long Zha then later on beg Ryo not to break their arm or tell the Mad Angels they squealed.
Shenmue 3, after beating the first buff boss in Bailu literally has the bad guys yell "yikes" then flail their hands in the air like they're in Team America World Police then clumsily bump into each other as they try to run away from Ryo.
S1 seemed to be a product of its time with the bad voice acting.
Then the Castle storm where the fat guy is playing belly bumps while shrine girl thumps each unsuspecting goon over the head before getting tossed overboard into the water. Then there's Ren with the one shot KO on a Lan Di bodyguard who spent 10 seconds making Bruce Lee sounds before taking his loss.
