very end of the game, nozomi memory

is this scene actually supposed to happen at some point throught the game. i finished the game and he has the flashback, but the flashback was a first to me, and some how magically after the flashback, the amulet is there. also, does it make any one else mad that it doesnt say "nozomis amulet" in shenmue 2.

I imagine that probably happened when Ryo was on his way home after the 70 man battle, that's the only place it could really fit. What Nozomi was doing out that early in the morning is beyond me

She could've been peforming a mignight ritual to curse the amulet

Yeah, this scene occured immediately after the 70-man battle, like Miles said. This is, quite frankly, the only way to explain why Ryo doesn't have the amulet in his inventory before the 70-man battle. Think about it. While you can't check the inventory for the rest of the game after that battle, you do in fact have the amulet in Shenmue 2. This logically leads to the conclusion that the scene has to occur the night before Ryo leaves for Hong Kong.

so why dont we actually see this scene... i dont like that fact that its just a flash back.

I suppose they did it for effect to show that Nozomi is important to Ryo because she was the one person he thought about immediately before leaving Japan. If they had showed it in it's chronological position, Nozomi would have seemed less important. That's what I think anyway.

hmmmm, maybe nozomi plays a biger part in the story than we all think...

No i knew she played a big part of the story I just dont know when!. You cant have introduced a Character like Nozomi and not make her mean anything to Ryo's Journey. I still really dont get that Nozomi memory..

Maybe the amulet has magical powers that will help him beat Lan-di

Maybe Nozomi turns out to be Lan Di in drag!!!

by **Juanfran** » Wed May 21, 2003 5:18 am

Could be! They've never been seen in the same place together!

My thoughts exactly!

LOL @ the Nozomi/Lan Di theory

Miles: Makes sense, no? I can't really think of another reason other than randomness.

very end of the game, nozomi memory
