Behind the mirror, there is actually an exact 3D copy of the room and the characters in it, just that the models are mirrored. The mirror is basically just a hole in the wall to the other half of the room.

DID YOU KNOW?!
Stephen Spielberg indreictly helped get
#Shenmue
greenlit!
Due to Spielberg's enthusiastic comments ("wonderful!") on being shown VF RPG, Shenmue's early form, apparently SEGA's CEO was put in such a good mood that he greenlit the start of full-on development.
DID YOU KNOW?!
If you go through the whole game without obtaining the photograph of Iwao and Sunming Zhao, there will be a cutscene immediately after Ryo returns home from the seventy-man battle in which Fuku-san gives it to Ryo himself?

We keep on fighting! We don't ever stop!

What do you remember from the day the snow turned to rain?
Did you play this 20 years ago or did the HD versions bring you towards this wonderful franchise?
It seems that the
