Yakuza 0 What To Do With Fish

Alright, you've just spent hours (or maybe just minutes, no judgment!) battling goons, singing karaoke, and generally raising heck across 1980s Japan in Yakuza 0. Now you've got…fish. Lots of fish. What on earth are you supposed to do with all that aquatic loot?

First, admire your collection! Seriously, take a moment. You’ve probably got everything from humble little sardines to impressive, shimmering sea bream. You are practically a master angler, even if the actual fishing minigame was more "mash buttons until something happens."

Now that the admiration is over, lets get cooking! Well, not you literally cooking. This is Yakuza 0, not Cooking Mama. But you can make sure that your fish ends up in the hands of talented chefs.

Feed the Hungry (Literally!)

Okay, “hungry” might be an understatement. More like “entrepreneurially spirited individuals who need a boost in morale and resources.” That's right, we're talking about your business ventures!

Think of your businesses as cute little Tamagotchis that require constant feeding, except instead of digital poop, they produce cold, hard cash. And guess what? Fish is a perfectly acceptable meal! Forget pixelated snacks; these guys want sashimi.

Head to your properties, whether it's Majima's cabaret club or Kiryu's real estate empire, and you'll find options to invest. Keep an eye out for upgrades or business opportunities that require specific items. Often, those items are...you guessed it...fish!

Upgrade Your Arsenal

Don't underestimate the power of a well-placed mackerel! Not literally, of course. While you *could* theoretically slap someone with a fish, that's not how Yakuza 0 works. Though, admittedly, it would be pretty hilarious.

Instead, think bigger. Think: weapons! Visit the various weapon shops scattered throughout Kamurocho and Sotenbori. You'll often find that certain blades, blunt instruments, or even…questionable devices…require materials for upgrades.

Scan the requirements carefully. Is that a legendary katana yearning for a particularly rare tuna? Is a pipe dream begging for some sardines? Time to dive back into your inventory and answer the call!

The Art of the Deal (With a Fishy Twist)

Yakuza 0 is full of colorful characters, side quests, and opportunities to help (or hinder) the citizens of Japan. And sometimes, helping involves…fish.

Keep your eyes peeled for folks in need. Maybe a chef is lamenting the lack of a crucial ingredient. Or a shady businessman is looking for something specific to seal a deal. You never know when your aquatic bounty might be the key to unlocking a hilarious and rewarding side story.

Don’t be afraid to experiment! Talk to everyone, explore every nook and cranny, and always keep your fish close at hand. You might be surprised at how often a random encounter turns into a fish-fueled adventure.

Remember, in Yakuza 0, everything is a potential weapon, a potential upgrade, or a potential key to unlocking a deeper connection with the world. Even…or perhaps especially…the fish.

So go forth, young yakuza! Embrace the fish. Wield it with confidence (figuratively speaking). And remember, when in doubt, chuck it at a problem. (Again, figuratively. Probably. I'm not responsible for what happens if you actually try to throw a virtual fish at a virtual enemy.)

And finally, don't forget to enjoy the ride! Yakuza 0 is a wild and wonderful game, and the fish are just one small, scaly part of the fun. Now go catch 'em all!
