Bubble | Yakuza 0 Japanese Intro | English and Japanese Lyrics

This song is very clever with its lyrics. Some translation notes below. Gokumi: Kumiko Goto, an 80’s idol Kabuchimono: Flamboyant samurai gangs of the Edo period, some historians believe the yakuza to have originated from them The chorus contains some word play on Japanese historical eras: - Image (imeeiji - イメージ) sounds like Meiji (明治) - Constrasting (taishouteki - 対照的) sounds like Taishou - Show wa (Show は) : Shouwa - Serene (heisei - 平静): Heisei Wasshoi: dictionaries translate this to ‘heave-ho’. May be used for example, if you were doing a strenuous task. Like a Dragon: as in Ryuu ga Gotoku, name drop of the series title Also an ammendment, the second line of the first verse should say “not uncool“ rather than “uncool“
