Beginning The “Photograph The Boat Guy” Request

Dead center in the middle ofS Shofukucho Streetyou’ll find the “Young Man” who has been started by what they recently witnessed: a man in a thong dancing on a ship. Naturally, he needs you to verify what he saw. So, we’ll dojustthat.

Where To Find The “Boat Guy”

One thing you need to be keenly aware of is the time of day.The man on the boat will NOT appear at night.So, during certain parts of certain chapters, you won’t be able to complete this Request.

Obviously, there is only one place where you’ll find boats. That would be the river that runs under the Bishamon and Iwao bridges.Go straight to the Sotenbori Footpaththat runs alongside the river and prepare to wait.

If you get jumped by baddies as the boat passes by, you won’t be able to take the picture. So,while you are waiting for the boat to arrive, clear out any thugs heading your way!

The man you are looking for doesn’t appear on every boat. In fact,you may have to let multiple boats pass before he appears on one.But don’t worry, a man dancing in a thong while standing on the stern of the ship is hard to miss. Have your camera ready as the boat approaches, andmake sure you only take the picture once an indicator appears overhim (it won’t count if he is too far away).

While we are here…The shimmering thing on the man’s thong is a Gold Ball.Grab it with your Spider Gadget. You may have to wait for the ship to come back around again after taking the photo, but you may as well get it out of the way.

Now, bring the picture back to the Young Man and you will be rewarded with800 Akame Pointsand35,000 yen.
