The year is 1908. You're standing outside when one of your mates blows smoke into a woman's face. Yakuza Zero battle music starts playing. It is at this moment you realize you have "fucked up".

This makes me want an Everett True beat 'em up that plays like Yakuza, and is set in 1900s America, but, for some reason, the voice acting is still in Japanese, and Kiryu's VA plays Everett.

I want a Public Domain Fighter. Think of a roster with Everett, Felix the Cat, Dracula, and Steam Boat Willy Mickey Mouse.

Is that a telephone or something in the background? Whatever it is it fell victim to True's anger as well lmao

The sign with a foamy beer 🍻 on it?

Looks like they're supposed to be standing outside a pub.

It has a little face with a nervous smile to me, looking sideways at the loiterers. Then,in the last panel, he's sort of resigned to his fate but glad that women are not being catcalled on his corner anymore.

Probably a cigarette dispenser.

I interpreted it as a cigarette vending machine

I like to imagine that he beat all of them up.
