She leaves as Ryo enters the house (they're saying "hi", but I don't remember if she mentioned the flowers), then Ryo goes to the altar room, and then Ine-san from the back is telling Ryo that Nozomi is such a nice girl.
What I've not seen on a video yet, is Fuku-san at Yokosuka Bar close to Akemi-san. I've encountered this (I believe so) in my very first playthrough (going way old back).

The following Christmas-themed video about Shenmue is very cheerful (and hilarious)!
My god, that video is cheerful as fuck !
The whole false memories thing with Shenmue is present with myself, too, dude. I even made a topic about it some months ago (http://www.shenmuedojo.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=48463). There are a few other games I played with false memories tied to them, but Shenmue sticks out in my mind the most because of how invested in the game I am, I believe.
...and a Shenmue III at E3...
