Left = guy on the rightRight = left guy, Left = middle guy
But it explains so much!The Kickstarter page had already a bad management to begin with but this stream is dreadfully infuriating.
I'm only getting answers through the chat or this thread. I can barely hear anything! I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of people (who may be interested but aren't Shenmue super fans and thus have to be sold on the Kickstater) saw this, thought "why is this stream so bad" and bailed.
Lightly skimming this thread it seems like Yu Suzuki should have found better people to run the Kickstarter and this stream. I feel bad for Yu. Regardless, Shenmue 3 is coming. Hoping for the best.

Site looks legit, but I'm trying to understand what exactly these guys do? Marketing firm or what?
Awesome Japan has to go.
jfc that's perfect and hilarious
odds we ever see this guy again?
Unless someone like say, Sony, swoops in to take control of the KS's management, it's way too late for that already.
Firing Awesome Japan is one thing.
Hiring someone capable to immediately take control of it, the coordination, planning, etc. All of these are time-consuming things on its own, never mind hurdles like negotiation with another marketing agency and other potential issues.
If this was a 60-day KS, there might be a chance for that. But with only 20 or so days left, kicking out A.Japan will do more bad than good, because clearly Ys Net don't have the skills to manage it on their own.
I can only hope they were cheapHow did Suzuki fall in with these guys?
Never knew Eddie Vedder was a huge Shenmue fan.
I had my volume on twitch at 50% and heard everything fine

Someone needs to translate this. It seems like they are providing marketing services? Please tell me that's not true.
I hope someone uploads it on Youtube. You have to witness it yourself. It's too good to spoil.
I disagree frankly. If THAT guy is their representative, if he's on the team arranging much of the KS details and announcements etc, it's a fucking calamity. I just thought he was some kind of uber fan been asked on to do this, not intricately involved with the KS campaign. They need Sony to come in, take control, and boss the motherfucker to $10 million (or just bloody fund the remaining few million required to make it so, can't be so hard!).
I just heard it was awful. How awful was it?

Honestly, the horrifying revelation that this guy is behind the project is just so hysterical to me. I cannot contain myself - I'm dying here. My stomach hurts. It's like a horror movie that makes you laugh instead of scares you, even though it's still terrifying.
