Watching an episode that starts off with contestants mistaking Goofy for Mickey Mouse, thinking the country code .it stands for Ireland and all but one of them running out the timer. Easily the worst or most rattled batch of contestants I've ever seen on a studio game show.

I was deciding between ordering 3 sliders from Grill'd, a slightly upmarket hamburger chain or 3 cheeseburgers from McDonald's and the realisation that the cheeseburgers now cost almost the same as the 3 sliders made that decision for me

That said I think the music works better in conjunction with the movie, having listened to the soundtrack I don't think it's as enjoyable on its own.

Capped off my Kiwami 2 playthrough by finishing the Majima Saga mini campaign they included. It's shockingly short (you can beat it in less than an hour including cutscenes) but it serves as a really nice epilogue to Yakuza 0
