And Shenmue 3's Niouwu, if we get a second series. I prefer the games but I'll definitely like a couple of more series.Tomato Convenience Store is in Shenmue II as well so i still have hope in relation to this
I do wonder if it's music rights...you can't have Tomato without the jingle, and the anime doesn't seem to be using any music from the games really, apart from the main Shenmue theme. Maybe there's Shenhua's theme?The lack of Tomato is really disappointing since it effectively means we won't get Izumi in the Hong Kong arc.
I agree, I’m curious what other fans who are clamouring for the boat chapter, really thinks it adds to the overall story, characterization or progress of Ryo?
While those are nice idea, again I restate what insight, character or narrative progression would a detour on the boat serve? I am unconvinced any screen time devoted to such things can help.With good imagination writers can do a nice plot on the boat with even characters that are not in the games, with even character development and much more.
I’m not sure right now if Yu Suzuki wrote something for the boat in The Legend Of Akira days but if he wrote something i think it would be nice to see at least some things.
I want to see something on the boat, i’m not saying it needs to be half of an episode or an entire episode, nothing like that, the anime is 13 episodes so i don’t think we will see a lot of things on the boat, i just think it would be nice to have at least some scenes on the boat.
The boat part can show Ryo getting to know the other parts of the boat and the people that are travelling with him, maybe doing friendships on the boat, can show Ryo studying mandarin, we saw Ryo talking in mandarin in this episode so it looks like Ryo is learning mandarin in this version of the story. In many scenes we saw Ryo with this book and i think Ryo is trying to learn Mandarin with this book.
This things and so much more that can be add on the boat part, like i said with good imagination writers can do a nice plot on the boat.
If at least we see chapter 4 of the manga side stories in the anime it will be nice, the chapter that Ryo fight Chai on the boat and save Xiaomei Ding.

If you watch some of the beta footage/trailers there’s a handful of additional scenes with Wong that seem to have got cut. I would t be surprised if Ren/Heavans get some additional content.
I think if they do season 2 they could compress the boat chapter with the merry cruise quests or trip to Niaowu. Everyone agrees Niaowu, that part of the story, could use a bit more plot.Let’s imagine for a moment that the anime is 24 episodes, now let’s imagine that the anime team dedicate 2 episodes for the boat part, with good imagination writers can do something meaningful on the boat like Ryo making friendships on the boat that will have a big impact on his life, bad situations during the trip, maybe Ryo having an important master on the boat that will teach important lessons for Ryo and much more.
The anime is 13 episodes so i don’t think the boat part on the anime will have something meaningful, i just think it will be nice to at least see some scenes on the boat like the chapter in the manga side stories.
If they skip the boat part is okay to me, it is what is is, i just think that with good imagination someone can create a beautiful boat chapter.
Sorry for going off-topic, but I suspect you're getting an RTP related error.I saw that someone created a fan game of the Boat Chapter, i want to play but i don’t know how because an error appear when i try to execute the game.
