Hello, Cory!
Just wanted to bring to your attention on this matter.
The current Yakuza Logo is actually Chinese. It basically translates to either "Ruffian" or "Gangster".
The actual name of Yakuza is written in Katagana. More info (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakuza).
I'm not sure what happened between now till the time when CK starts but presently, Japan would most probably not wish to adopt any Chinese culture. ;D

Interested in Chinese culture, are we? ;D Can we expect Kung-fu masters who will impart special attacks in SoS?

Shooting Stars- Fires multiple projectiles. Dragon Fist- Possible unarmed 1-hit kill. Zantetsu Strike- Armor piercing sword attack. Ikari Awakening- Attack and Defence increases by 50% when HP goes lower than 20%.
Could dream, couldn't we? ;D

blackgauntlet - i was just studying that page and some other resources yesterday. The Yakuza ladder connector and access to some of the Yakuza bosses are next on my list, so I think I will take a crack at the logo at that time as well.

andrew- Artwork changes? Cool! ;D Just thought that Cory wanted CK to stay as real as possible and a Sino-Nippon cultural merger is... well... as possible as a moon made of green cheese.

Altho this hits back to the core of the problem with a real-world derived setting. Limits

Being an opportunist, sharpened and trained over the years playing TB games, I saw an opening and I took it! ;D

I would edit your post to ask for ponies but I think people would really believe you were asking for a pony.
