So, this is piggybacking off of my last thread here, based on what we have learned from the games: https://www.shenmuedojo.com/forum/i...have-we-learned-in-shenmue-i-ii-and-iii.2566/
Although this time, I thought I'd take a stab at migrating some old information into the spotlight. Almost everything, if not everything in this thread comes from other people. I am simply combining it into one place, like the old Dojo used to have in the "Shenmue III Preview". I will try my best to credit who and where I got this stuff from. If I have made a mistake, please let me know and I will add that information in. Here goes...
Possible Cut Content
I say "possible" because we still don't exactly what will perhaps be used for a Shenmue IV. Yu Suzuki has stated that in Shenmue III, players would learn the meaning of the prophecy poem, as well as Ryo and Shenhua's roles in said prophecy. He also said that Shenmue III would have "four main bosses", two of which we assume to be Lan Di and Niao Sun. We also know that this does not include Ge or Yanlang [6]. One of the bosses was described as "a strategist that uses more cunning than head on fighting". Further adaptations of the QTE system were also being experimented with, including having the player respond to different colors, sounds, or Chinese characters [3]. All moves from Shenmue I & II minus throws were said to be included, however, there are some that did not make a return [7]. Yu Suzuki originally tried to include snail races in the game [7]. The "Character Perspective System" was supposed to "highlight different characters' personalities as they go through the story" [8]. Further regarding this system [9]:
Ryo was originally supposed to visit the Great Wall and have a fight with Ge there:
Seeing as how we visit a location similar to this in the Shenmue III ending, it is unclear if this is the same wall that contains the cliff temple or one of a few walls within China.
Snow weather can be found in the game's files, which leads us to our next two topics:
Baisha Village
Baisha translates to "White Sand", presumably snow, and was originally going to be one of the three main locations in Shenmue III:
The Character Perspective System was to be included here. Baisha was to show "what Shenmue III is all about". Players were to "Live out a siege game reminiscent of the Warring Kingdoms. See which strategist will come out on top". Baisha was to include tulous, which Yu Suzuki had visited during Shenmue III's development:
A few early development screenshots also were taken inside these tulou, showing Ryo fighting Chi You Men members: [11]
Ryo can be seen running up to a tulou in an early clip of development contained within a trailer for the upcoming Shenmue documentary:
In the first Shenmue III development report, a scene is being worked on that consists of characters jumping down a rocky cliff, dodging falling rocks and boulders [12].
A loading screen for Baisha was curiously found in the What's Shenmue files by LanDC:
Lastly, in a Kickstarter update clarifying stretch goals, it was stated that that Baisha was changed into the Old Castle area, and that the Character Perspective System could not be implemented in this game [14].
Niao Sun
Niao Sun, also known as Chonghua, Entei, TyoJun, is a "deadly siren of the Chi You Men" [13]. She is said to be a ruthless practitioner of Mantis Dagger Fist style [10]. Seen in many promotional items and material even before Shenmue I was released, the most information we gather from her has been in two character descriptions. One, from the Shenmue Premiere:
It states: "One of "the Four Leaders" of Chi You Men, in charge of the south. She wears a voluptuous red dress, and her manner seduces people. Her fearful eyes that pierce everything are always seeking chases. She takes pleasure in cruel actions and eliminates people just like bugs ." [15]
The other comes from SEGA's official Shenmue III website in Japan. It reads: "One of the leaders of the shadowy Chi You Men criminal organization. Belying her captivating beauty, she is an expert martial arts practitioner. However, her greatest talent is said to lie in the area of plotting and strategy, and she makes use of her cunning wits to play dirty tricks. 'Niao Sun' is merely her nickname inside the organization, a reference to one of the Four Heavenly Beasts - the Vermilion Bird*. However regarding such details as her real name, background, and why she joined the Chi You Men, nothing at all is known." [16][17]
Yu Suzuki says the following:
"In Shenmue, there are four big bosses. The east, west, north, and south...each one of these four bosses protects one of the four cardinal points. And the one who protects the South is Niao Sun. The color that characterizes her is red, and the animal that represents her is the phoenix. She is very scary, and a cruel type of boss. "
A partial model was found by LanDC in the files of What's Shenmue:
Locations/Chapters/Concept Chapter Artwork
Shenmue III takes us roughly 40% through the story [24], and encompasses parts of chapters three to six [25].
In an interview with AM2 member Shin Ishikawa, he highlights that the Shenmue saga consists of 16 chapters:
It is unknown why this differs from Yu Suzuki's claims of 11 chapters.
Shenmue was originally written with 11 chapters, and Yu Suzuki originally envisioned four to five games in the series, and would still like to realize this goal if possible [8].
As hinted at by the tapestry in Shenhua's house in Shenmue II, Luoyang seems to be an important future Shenmue location:
@BlueMue, who provided the video of the snow in Shenmue III listed above, also recorded many of the dialogue choices Ryo has with Shenhua in Shenmue III. In one of these, she mentions to Ryo that she has "vivid dreams of the place where the emperor used to live":
Found by LanDC, the Shenmue Premiere video seems to showcase locations within Luoyang [18]. The full video is linked below, and here are some pictures that seem to indicate this, as the originals in the thread are long gone:
Similarly, the Shaolin Monastery, located within the Henan Province of China (same as Luoyang) looks to be visited in the Project Berkeley video which came on a bonus disc with the Japanese release of Virtua Fighter 3TB on Dreamcast:
Notice the similar circular windows along the buildings. Although dark, the building that the thugs and Shenhua stand in front of is clearly the Mountain Gate of the Shaolin Monastery.
Some material from the cancelled Shenmue Online gives us a glimpse on possible future locations. First, we have a map from Shenmue.com around the time Shenmue Online was announced in 2004:
We see both Xian and Suzhou as new locations in China, as well as Seoul and Busan in South Korea. Whether or not the Korean locations were planned specifically for Shenmue Online is anyone's guess, as they have never been showcased outside of this image in any Shenmue material in any form.
As for Xian and Suzhou, in a short behind the scenes video of Shenmue Online, there is a map of China that the camera shows for a few seconds:
As discussed here [26], the thread seems to point that the chapter locations are the following:
1 - Yokosuka
2 - Genpu Maru, the boat from Japan to China
3 - Hong Kong
4 - Kowloon
5 - Li River
6 - Bailu Village
The map also highlights Suzhou, Luoyang, Meng Cun, and Beijing.
At both Game Developers Conference 2014 to give a Shenmue Postmortem presentation, and a Shenmue III press event, Yu Suzuki included two slides in his presentation that included a map indicating past and future locations of the Shenmue series, and concept art tiles that go with certain locations on the map, as discussed in this topic: [19]. The topic author attended the CHUAPP 2015 press event for Shenmue III in Shanghai, China:
His theory is that the chapters are as follows:
1 - Yokosuka
2 - Hong Kong
3 & 4 - Suzhou and Shanghai, unsure of which comes first.
5 & 6 - Guilin.
7 - Luoyang
8 - Cangzhou Miao Village
9 - Xian
10 - Beijing
11 - Lan Lou (Xinjiang)
He states that the Suzhou and Shanghai chapters were cut, and that during a dinner with Yu Suzuki (unclear why he was at dinner with Yu Suzuki), that Shenmue III encompasses chapters five and six, which was actually confirmed later on, although slightly expanded with bits and pieces of three and four [25]. Lastly, he mentions that Yu Suzuki said he will be visiting Suzhou, Wuxi, and Xiamen. Maybe we will be visiting these locations in the future?
The chapter and location discussion is further complicated by this sidestory comic in Shenmue II that highlights the boat trip to Hong Kong, where Chai attacks Ryo again [27]. In an interview In a September 7th, 2001 issue of Dorimaga, Yu Suzuki and Masaya Matsukaze confirm that the boat content was shot, but ultimately cut [28]. This is indicative of more scenes were cut, highlighted in the aforementioned thread, and in particular, a lengthy journey between Kowloon and Guilin.
Then there is this picture:
1 - Yokosuka
2 - Hong Kong
3 - Suzhou
4 - Guilin
5 - Baisha
We also have these pictures of Akira from the Virtua Fighter CG Portrait Series, originally released in 1995:
The picture depicts Akira in front of a sign for Cang Zhou, which houses the town of Mengcun, where Lan Di claims that Iwao murdered his father. Mengcun is also considered the birthplace of Bajiquan.
We also have this picture of Lau, from his own Virtua Fighter Portrait Series, in front of the Longmen Grottoes of Luoyang:
Mysterious Poetry Scroll
In Shenmue I, Ryo finds a "Mysterious Scroll" behind the Yin & Yang banner in the Hazuki Dojo. Guizhang helps translates it (turning into the "Poetry Scroll), and says that Ryo should hold onto it, because someday he may meet the master who wrote it:
"O, fierce tiger, thou art ruler of the forest, the bravest of character. As tranquil as the most majestic of mountains, as swift as a bolt of lightning. As violent as an earthquake, jolting the great Earth. Show no mercy. With twin fangs strike, and rush up Moon Mountain. Striking fear in all, nary a soul challenge thee."
Guizhang goes on to say that the scroll is written in secret poetry form, and only those who have received direct instruction from the master can understand its meaning.
According to Kiyuu, this move is Akira's "Mouko Kouhazan", as shown here [20] [23]:
This move (a fierce tiger climbs a mountain), along with Demon's Triangle (the king of Hell waves his hand three times), is one of the Badazhao of Bajiquan [22].
Music
In the files of What's Shenmue, Shenmue I, Shenmue II, and Shenmue III lies over forty unused music tracks. While these could easily have been alternate music choices for current scenes, or music leftover from cut content from these games (or from upcoming DLC in Shenmue Online's case), some of them may even be for events and locations beyond that of Shenmue III. In a Kickstarter interview for Shenmue III, composer Ryuji Iuchi says that he composed over 100 songs himself, and between Shenmue I & II combined, there were over 800 songs composed by the music team, meaning some have still not been used yet:
You can listen to most of them here:

The "Character Perspective System" was supposed to "highlight different characters' personalities as they go through the story" [8]. Further regarding this system [9]:
Shenmue Dojo/Team Yu said:Something we know will be in Shenmue III is the Character Perspective system, a new feature unlocked for development as a crowdfunding stretch goal. With the player able to take control of Ryo's allies for the first time, we were interested to learn how different an experience it would be to play as Ren or Shenhua. For example, would the leader of a Hong Kong street gang employ a different fighting style to the lead protagonist so far?
Suzuki confirmed that Ren's style of combat will differ from Ryo's, and that Shenhua doesn't fight. "She's smart and uses other tactics," he noted, before explaining that "the Character Perspective system is not a system that simply changes your character. It simulates each person's personality, and the way they think and behave."
Ryo was originally supposed to visit the Great Wall and have a fight with Ge there:
Seeing as how we visit a location similar to this in the Shenmue III ending, it is unclear if this is the same wall that contains the cliff temple or one of a few walls within China.
