So last month I got into the yakuza series and I couldn’t help but notice the similarity between the character voices with the ones that are in JJBA, so I thought of listing some of them here. I might add more to it in the future :)
Note: for each character that has shared their voices in the games only, this emoji 🎮 will be put beside them while the rest that do not have it are from the anime.

Yor Forger
Assassination: Earning the title of "Thorn Princess", she is an expert in assassination arts, learning at an early age. She can effortlessly fulfill her missions issued by her superior, the Shopkeeper. She utilizes her cleaning skills in taking care of the aftermath of her assassinations. Yor has an intimate knowledge, knowing the lethal points of a human body such as the jugular vein.
Master martial artist: Yor Forger is a master of martial arts, proficient with the use of her knives. Her amazing prowess are demonstrated when she easily knocks out a delinquent who took over Anya Forger, almost overwhelming Loid with her series of swift hand-to-hand attacks that even Loid commented that she might kill him.
Peak physical attributes: She boasts an above-average human physique on par with her own husband, Loid. She can muster enough strength to break through wooden doors, destroy a pumpkin with a single blow using only her bare hand, or even impale a human skull with her knives. Her kicks can move speeding cars, brutalize humans, and serve as her preferred method of close combat to devastating effect. Her kicks were powerful enough to knock out Loid by merely grazing his chin, something no one has done to him since his training days. Yor's above average durability includes surviving a bullet wound, resistance to poison, and so on. Her agility and reflexes are on point where she can easily knock out a raging cow with her hands, perform swift consecutive punches against Loid Forger during their "Spy Wars "play, or catch a hot tray of food thrown by Camilla using only her feet. Despite her amazing feat, Yor has troubles controlling her strength that she may accidentally demonstrate it in unwilling situations such as in a tennis game where she diced a tennis ball with her precise swing or, Yor accidentally sliced up the cutting board that she was chopping vegetables on, kr slapped Yuri Briar to the point he bleeds out.
Intimidation: She displays a fearsome presence when taking care of her targets where they even tremble in fear upon spotting her.
Depending on what kind of artist you are, he would definitely commissioned some pieces from you a few times now. Of course that's more if you do realism or abstract paintings.
If you prefer just sketching with win and pencil or stensils and such then he'll pay you compliments because art is a skill that he has respect for.
Honestly doesn't say much about you being an artist to others. Why would he brag about your talents when you can do so yourself, should you wish?
The people he associates with are also people he wouldn't care to brag to as well about his S/O. The less people that know about you, the better. Just because you are his weakness and he wouldn't want you to be used against him.
