弥助の問題を取り上げてくださり、ありがとうございます 黒人の弥助を主人公にするだけだったら私たち日本人はここまで怒りませんでした 黒人侍を含めて完全なるフィクションだと公言してくれれば私たち日本人はここまで怒りませんでした 私たち日本人にとってどんな肌の色を持ち込もうとも問題ありませんし、LGBTQ問題を持ち込む事も寛容になれます Ubisoftは私たち日本人にとって複数のタブーを犯しました たかがゲームの範疇を彼らは超えてしまったのです プライドを維持するために切腹を選択する侍が実在していたのが日本です 侍への侮辱、文化の盗用、日本と他のアジア諸国を混同する侮辱、まったくされていない時代考証など数え上げればキリがありません

You deserve a lot more recognition bro

That man who came to Japan without a degree certainly got some balls, i give him that. It's not just Japan, not having uni degree in a lot of asian countries are practically a death sentence.

so kind of off topic here, but i've never been a big fan of the AC games. i've only played 2 of them, the 1st one, and one of the more recent ones (the one with a brother and sister duo for playables i think), never finished either of them. but the most shocking thing to me after playing the 1st AC game, was seeing the Ubisoft logo on the one i played years later because i could've swore that the AC series was made by EA. that's how off my radar this game series was until all this nonsense with the upcoming game happened.

i remember watching her when i was like 10

ubisoft hates japan, because they dont bow to the rainbow mafia like the west does.

2024 Rodger swan ❤

If someone was ever going to complain about cultural appropriation this is the time lol

I totally agree with the late issue. I work in a hospital in California. People be coming into work 5 to 6 minutes late. They don’t think anything of it. I’m always there 30 minutes before because that’s how I raised. My grandfather use to say. Early is on time, on time is late, and late is unacceptable. So he would tell me to leave for work for twice the time to get there, in case of complications.

We wuz samurai kingz n' shiet :))))

Well calling it, "historical fiction" would mean that it's imaginary history or even alternate history. As far as ethnic groups being misrepresented in the media, welcome to the club and yes, I have Japanese and American relatives.

her remaining 70k subscribers are prob just sock puppet accounts she made

These racist white supremacist weaboos woundnt cry is Yassuke was White😂

These white supremacist worst nightmare is to see Africans wining, they did so much effort to tarnish the image of Africans in their medias and erase or lie about some of their histories that they admire

What stupid thing Ubisoft did. There's so many stories worth telling from that time and, so many other directions they could have went. Instead they chose to tell Yasuke's story by making weird Japanese fan fiction that no one wants.

Bloddy hell! That haruka story was dark

Fantastic video!

They had Leonardo Davinci invent the gun and your character fighting the pope in that game, it was never THAT accurate lol I don’t see this as being any different than Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter but I guess if the main argument is that Japanese people are mad that a game set in Japan only has one Japanese main character out of 2 then fair enough

So did they call it historical FICTION or not?

18:42 imagine if the 300 Spartans were led into the thermopiles by Chief Sitting Bull, the Greeks would be pissed. Yeah, I know, I shouldn't give them any ideas...

who in Ubisoft thought it was a good idea to have people play as a foreigner in feudal Japan running around murdering native Japanese to hip-hop beats, while having a female ninja sidekick who looks more Vietnamese than Japanese?! adding to this, i firmly believe that Far Cry 5 being a good, fun game was a complete accident and unintended by Ubisoft another interesting thing about this game is the timing of it. game set in feudal Japan featuring a black man as the main character being announced right about the same time that the Japanese government announces they want to start bringing in more migrants from Africa and India... this has to give any Japanese person who notices this and unsettling feeling

Ubisoft are terrible, they made historical figures that are represented in history as "good guys" as the bad guys. King Alfred was one of a very select few good rulers that Wessex/England ever had. Now in regards to Yasuke, Wikipedia has been edited by a bunch of dimwits to say that he is a Samurai and because Wikipedia is used by laymen to learn a bit about history this is extremely worrying. Sure, historians will know the truth but many these days would rather present a narrative than the facts. I have no problem with Yasuke being a main character in an Assassins Creed game, as it is fiction, but I think they could have done better.

I don't know about you Scott, but a game about Asian cowboys sounds freaking cool.

Excellent. Gotta make Ubisoft understand Japan won't drink the Cool Aid.

this is how it starts Ubisoft is trash corporation.

A lot of the guys who signed that petition were western otakus, they are the same guys who were crying about boobies getting "censored" stellar blade. There was also a meme where an American nerd impersonated a japanese historian named "Kenji Yamamoto" on twitter to legitimize his disdain for the game and tons of people believed it. If someone doesn't like the game that's totally fine, i just think there are other toxic elements to this controversy that should be acknowledged.

as soon as i saw a black guy in the reveal trailer i was like "god damn not again". a black japanese samurai?! like, even IF there was one why do you have to take this guy and make it the main character?!? there are many other samurais they should have taken first. they could have done such a special game but nooo, lets bring our woke agenda to this game

This video was brought to you by 1:52 🤭

Ubisoft's logo is 666 for added odiousness. They'll never top 2013's black flag so why try harder. You know, if it wadn't for British & Irish tv, i'd of never seen any black or asian people before the mid 90s as a kid just like Nobunaga!

I would say they have the freedom to disagree with the game if they wish to , but they also disagree with historical facts like the fact that they weren't involved in world war two , and they had to go through a whole Reimaging campaign from there.Their nationals believes to kawiii and cute thats why hello kitty exists you can google it

You kind of contradicting your self. You said they are laid back and care don’t about games, but then you say they care about it. Also your origin of yasuke is in accurate. He was not a slave. He was a body guard sold to protect religious missionaries. He was not bought by Nobunaga. He was not kidnapped.

Yes, it's disrespectful. I'm pretty disgusted how there are sites that list Yasuke as an African samurai when that wasn't the case. Just goes to show how people can twist history, and makes you question how much of our history is the truth.

Japan could care less about a minor historical figure or what they are doing to him in this game. The only people who care are those anti-SJW warriors in the states that think its 'replacement theory' or other such garbage lol. Remember that Last Samurai movie starring Tom Cruse and the freaking awesome chad Ken Watanabe? Its the same thing lol!

The Japanese take on this is kinda based, but simultaneously they also just sound like a bunch of Karens.

Netflix: "Black Cleopatra. A documentary!" Ubisoft: "Black Samurai. Historical!" Cultural appropriation, for some reason always replacing with Black person.

Tbh there have been debates like this for pretty much every single game in the Assassin's Creed franchise. I guess it depends what we think "historical fiction" is supposed to mean. Emphasis on the historical or on the fiction? But yeah, they always get a lot wrong. Oh FWIW, re: Napoleon there was quite a bit of backlash in France after Ridley Scott's movie. Not historically accurate at all. Some things you expect coz you get that it's a movie and they're going to make some changes to make everything more dramatic. Fair enough. But other changes are harder to explain. Like portraying Napoleon as a heartless brute who beats his wife in public, I mean, there's definitely some ideology driving that. And dunno, like in his portrayal of the battle of the pyramids, they have him order artillery to start shooting at the great pyramid of Gizah lol. Which is weird not just because the battle was actually a lot further off from the pyramids than that, but historically Napoleon's expedition to Egypt is pretty much the origin of modern Egyptology. He brought like 200 scholars along with him to study ancient Egyptian culture and whatnot. So like, yeah, the dude definitely wasn't trying to destroy the great pyramid of Gizah lol ^^ Ubisoft usually tries to wiggle their way out of it by saying something like "yeah it's not accurate, but when we say historical fiction we just mean we're taking a historical period to paint the background of our fictional story". Ridley Scott though really leaned into it, basically telling historians "how do you know? Were you there? If not then shut the fuck up" lol ^^

Ubisoft is making game about how Black guy is murdering local Japan population.

Asian Cowboy? As in David Carradine in Kung Fu?

Asian Cowboy? As in David Carradine in Kung Fu?

The "first time?" meme comes to mind when hearing this. The west changing around historical figures details to fit a narrative they trying to push. Sounds about right.

I guess Asmon was right after all

Too much yapping. Get to the point. It feels like you're in front of a class and reciting your essay you did last night.

In the time yasuke was in Japan there no such thing as ”samurai“

Yasuke makes minor appearances in both Nioh games, and despite being a game about yokai and magic it still manages to be more accurate.

Woke culture doesn't give two shits about Asians....that has been quite clear for the past 7-10yrs. Not that I agree with any of their tripe....

Where was this outrage when many of amercan films features white men in japan as samurais? Selective outrage for fictional stories imo. I swear nobody plays video games these days and just bitch and complain before it even comes out. Since when was ubisoft ever historically accurate in any game? I live in Japan and well my Japanese gf and friends don't care so opinions vary.

Ubisoft basically set themselves up for a win either way. If it sells well in Japan then they'll crow from the rooftops that Japan is woke and if it fails then they'll do the same but dust off old reliable and call the Japanese Nazis and white adjacent alt righters.

I understand your points in the discussion, but we do need to realize that this is a video game at the end of the day despite what Ubisoft says. I still look at this game as fantasy even though it is somewhat of a historical game. In reality, most of Black history are hidden and never talked about. Black people were conditioned to be kept in the dark about their history and media. On the other hand, other Assassins Creed games are not that accurate either. When a historical game is being made, don't take it so seriously.

In short: Companies are so desperate to show how not-racist they are, that they circle all the way back to being racist.

So much of this is overblown and just plain stupid. Japan has a very long history of making fun of, cracking jokes or taking liberties with not only their history but history of other nations. The argument with UBI-soft suddenly being a bad company for a obvious Disney fairy-tale of a story set in a time period is a bit hypocritical. this series have never sold well in Japan anyway. So why the fuss? And why is no news outlets in Japan covering this if its so big of a deal?
