Shenmue[]

Early on in Ryo Hazuki's journey, he walks towards Kota and Yasuo playing soccer next to the Yamanose Shrine, while Kayoko Ito draws on the road with chalk. Kota unintentionally kicks the ball towards Ryo, and a QTE appears where if succeeded, Ryo will catch the ball and tell them to be careful when playing in the road. If failed, the ball will hit Ryo on the chest then fall and hit Kayoko, hurting her. She will start crying really bad and Ryo will apologize and ask if she's OK. She will then run off home, with Kota and Yasuo following her.

Kota, Yasuo and Kayoko also assist Megumi Mishima in taking care of the orphaned kitten at the Yamanose Shrine.
