Maybe its over reading but is believed in China to be lucky colors both green and blue. Please correct me if Im wrong but green is associated to growth being finantial or spiritual and blue has between its meanings the healing or completion of a transition.If we look at all the chapters arts we can see that Ryo (Akira) have 3 outfits during the journey, the first outfit is the white t-shirt and jeans, the second is the green martial arts outfit and the third is the blue outfit.
Probably in the Legend Of Akira scripts/novels have the story about how Ryo (Akira) gain these 2 outfits.
Maybe it was Xiuying that gave the green outfit for Ryo before Ryo leaving Hong Kong, it is possible, and maybe the blue outfit have relation to the last master in the journey, probably the one who wrote the Mysterious scroll, in my opinion the last master of Ryo will be a Bajiquan master in Meng Cun, the place that is considered the birth of Bajiquan.
The green outfit fits really well in Shenmue III for Ryo, with this outfit it feels like is showing Ryo's growth as a martial artist just like in the chapters arts, i think this outfit is my favorite outfit in the game.
i love that we can play as Ryo just like in some arts of that time, it is beautiful.
So we get a symbol for every state of Ryo's soul in his journey:
- "Street performer" outfit because Ryo starts as Zongquan Bai carelessly showing his moves. And fueled by hate.
- He starts inner seek and enters a "green state".
- He finally understands kungfu. Blue outfit.
I dont know maybe they only randomly picked colors and Im blabling.
