I think he's just tired of interviewers not doing proper research of the cast' background. It goes to show that these interviewers aren't doing their jobs well and Mackenyu is done with it.
Doesn’t even necessarily have to be interviewers not doing their research, it’s just one of those general questions they’d ask for the viewer’s sake, no matter what the adaption was. If I remember right the first guy who asked in this vid had a more personally tailored question lined up for him about it but it’s still one of those natural things to throw out for the whole cast to answer
I think it's good interviewers are like that. If you're Asian, you're not "American" for others. It's cool so far interviewers are not bringing up "oh you're Japanese blah blah blah"
Let's say for example an ethnically Korean who has an American passport, born and raised in the US. And when he debut as a KPop idol and happens to be in US promoting their song, interviewers are like "your English is phenomenal" like 😂 yo

He's very proud to be Japanese, so it's probably a disrespect to him when people don't acknowledge it and assume him to be just an "American" national.
Lol But he is just legally ‘american’ national. Why did he give up jp nationality if his so proud of his heritage.
@@alstjrqkr689 He didn't give up his Japanese citizenship. He renounced his American nationality. He had dual citizenship only because he was born in the US (if you're born in the US you are automatically a US citizen regardless of your parents immigration status, this is called the "birthright citizenship"), but he chose to give up his American nationality before the age 20, in accordance with Japan's nationality laws.
Okay but if you say the opposite people call you racist
@@alstjrqkr689he was born in America his nationality was never Japanese. Japanese is his ethnicity
To be fair asking if he's a fan of anime or if he's a fan of one piece is a legitimate question. not ALL Japanese watch anime and those that do don't necessarily watch one piece.
"Gimme that mic!" 😂 Poor Mackenyu was fighting for his life in these interviews 😭
Oh and... did you guys ever know that He's ✨JaPaNeSe✨
Yeah he has too or else some newcomers would think he is Chinese or Korean.
@@CosmoLav geez, it's a joke, i love him
Holy I just noticed when you say “JaPaNeSe” not a single vowel is capitalised and not a single consonant is lowercase.
@@Lemko9257 I just meant to do it alternately, but nice coincidence 😆
@CosmoLav he specifically doesn’t want to get mistaken for Chinese. Koreans and Japanese get helllllaaaa pissed if people mistake them for Chinese.
Macken be like, "for the last time folks, I'm JAPANESE!"
No one said he wasn't, but not all Japanese people watch anime, and those that do, don't necessarily watch one piece
@@diablohorer you couldnt be more wrong lol, As of August 2022, 416,566,000 copies of the One Piece manga had been sold in Japan. One piece is extremely popular especially egghead island.
He’s so done explaining himself dat he’s japanese 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He is being questioned by both American & Japanese. Damn he cant seem to get a break.
Well he is, but to be honest you could be Japanese and not like a particular anime. I mean I don’t automatically love everything that comes out of my own country.
@@claritakrist the thing is they dont realise that he been asked the same question in every single american interview for One-piece.
it' s probably they don't care. I saw a korean actress that participated in an american movie whose producer was brad pitt getting asked did you smell Brad Pitt and how was it? I mean come on, really?! is that supposed to be the best question you could ever ask?? It's plainly stupid. I mean if you are interviewing anyone, you should do some basic research. Should be common sense which is not common nowadays. I am glad though, she had the best answer to it that she doesn't know cause she is not a dog 😀@@phantomhearts5577
@@claritakristcan confirm. Am Japanese and don’t watch anime, can’t engage when people try to talk to me about it lol
Proud as a Japanese...
I’m so freaking proud of you man.... 🇯🇵
Guys, I think he might be Japanese, I'm not sure tho.
Has he ever explicitly say he is Japanese? I mean, where are the videos?
he never said he was japanese racist for you to assume
Tut tut tut 😤
@@eyesopen4729 I apologize for my racis-ness I will try to better in the future.
Really?! What gave you that idea?
This is insanely relatable to me. I'm half-Japanese and half-white and grew up in Japan, but since I look Hispanic no one assumes I'm Asian or Japanese, so I do the same thing as him haha. I totally get it. I have no shame in being proud of my heritage. Whenever I speak Japanese to people here in the states who are Japanese, they're always caught off-guard by my pronunciation and it's funny to see their brains short circuit for a moment.
ah, the half-asian/half white person who came out looking Hispanic (there's many of us), I feel you. I was always mistaken as hispanic growing up, never asian, not mad at it, since I know I don't look it, but, yes, it does make you want to let the people know what you are.
That reminds me of one of my high school teachers. The guy was half-okinawan/half-white and look straight up Mexican. He also happens to be my wrestling coach, so when we travel for out of city tournaments he made sure to let us know that he’s half-Japanese by taking us out for sushi.
I wonder why most wasians ended up looking Hispanic lmao, especially Half Japanese ones.
Most half Thais just s8 up look White
Mackenyu isn't mixed though lol
Same bro same

why does this remind me of that one time jackson wang was asked whether he understood Chinese and he was like "IM CHINESE"

Wtf is jackson wong?
@@alstjrqkr689 A Chinese idol. He was a member of Got7 and is a solo singer right now (and a businessman). I don’t know that much of him.
Not even remotely close, being Japanese does not automatically mean you watch anime 🤣
to be fair not all japanese are a fan of anime but i can understand mackenyu's frustration with the repetitive questions in the interviews, like they ask the same question over and over again......
They are being politically correct, idiot.
Right and if the interviewer assumed that he liked anime simply because he’s Japanese, that wouldn’t have been perceived well either 😅 I feel for that interviewer ahah
But the question whether he's familiar with One Piece is pretty dumb. I went to Tokyo recently and One Piece was literally on every corner. Not all Japanese are otakus, obviously, but they probably watched some anime in their childhood
I mean, they grew up with anime, fans or not.... Of course they mostly exposed by any kind of anime tv series
Especially one piece😅
It is impossible for someone to grow up in Japan without watching anime. You're speaking from a Western perspective, but in Japan it's completely natural. In the West, only anime fans watch anime, but in Japan, everyone watches anime, even if they're not anime fans. It's different from the West. There are anime broadcast on terrestrial TV every day, please don't think from a Western perspective.
I’m so proud of him literally standing up for himself by always reminding the interviewers that he is Japanese and not American
Being Japanese, that's his pride. And we're proud of him as Japanese. マッケン最高!!
gimme that mic!
he was so excited😂
The way he just asked and grabbed for the mic to “clarify” he’s Japanese haha 😂

He has the most cute "offended" in this earth🤧
I know after every interviewer he had to sit down and rethink life because how do they not know this by now 😭
mackenyu is PURE japanese. many people are trying to imply he is half japanese only because he doesnt look their stereotypical japanese looks. many japanese people looks like him , not handsome like him but non stereotypical japanese.
Wait he kinda looks mix. Same with his brother, Gordon. I thought they were half white?
@@_nanalia_ no; many japanese look like them; because of their jomon ancestry. mackenyu is one of those people in fact he doesnt look half whiote he just have deep face; others are kitamura takumi and hiroshi abe.
it is a misconception that japanese like mix/ white people. they dont cause those features are part of japanese society. no white looking actor are famous in japan
@@s2oop436 Thanks for the explanation. I don't know about Hiroshi Abe but Kitamura Takumi looks a lot like Southeast Asian imo.
@@_nanalia_ wtf they don’t look southeast asian at all lol they look Japanese with more prominent features + there are many Japanese people who have the same look as hiroshi abe
@@_nanalia_ he looks very Japanese to me the same with his brother he doesn’t look half white at all to me
there are many full blooded Japanese people who have this kind of look
I am so proud of you because my children are Japanese too.
He's so real and extra 😂😂
The reason why he doesn't appear as many as his other One Piece co-stars is because he is done with the question.
Quite ironic that Zoro is a descendant of people who left Wano to settle in the East Blue.
Being born Japanese itself is a huge flex. That country, that culture, those traditions… unmatched!
Actually 50-50 since we get criticism as well because of our history...🫤

This is like asking an American if he likes a certain Hollywood movie and him saying “Well duh, I’m American why would you ask me that?” 💀 not every Japanese person likes anime so the interviewers’ questions are valid.
This👆
Todos los japoneses conocen el anime/manga la diferencia esta en que no todos lo ven o leen porque cada quien su gusto. All japanese people know about anime/manga, but not necessary they consume this content( buy manga or see anime series)
Interviewer defo had logic but I think Mackenyu is just being a troll
@@astronormi I think what a lot of people don't realize is that anime like One Piece is everywhere in Japan. It's been on forever. The manga is still going on. Everybody knows it. Every year there's some sort of One Piece collaboration with some convenience store chain. You can walk into any 7-11 and they have the newest volumes laid out close to the hot foods and the magazines. If the theme song hits the charts, it's played in random shopping spaces like malls and stores. Every summer, Universal Studios Japan has a One Piece live show. One Piece isn't some niche thing, nor is it some franchise relegated to just TV or just the movie theatre. It is highkey unavoidable, and you may not watch the show or read the manga, but you know what the characters/art style looks like. You've got to be living under a rock to not recognize characters like Tony Tony Chopper and Luffy and Nami. It's kinda like how it feels like everybody in the US has watched SpongeBob at some point in their lives.
Not all Japanese people like anime, but the questions being asked to the cast are often "were you fans of One Piece before you got the role?" or "did you know about One Piece before you got the role?" The latter question probably feels particularly annoying to someone like Mackenyu because, if you live in Japan for long enough, you probably know about One Piece. If you were a kid/adolescent when it first aired, then you were probably watching it just like every other kid in the country, as if it was some version of Sunday morning cartoons.
@@evelynd9240 I agree...I also think the interviewers wanted to avoid making assumptions
i love his japanese movies and until i saw him accept an award in america i didnt even know he spoke english or was at involved in any american cinema
GiMMi dAt MIaC
13 likes? Wow
I asked a japanese if he reads manga and the answer is the same “Im japanese” 😭😭
😌🤝
It’s a good thing to be proud of your culture. I would’ve been saying that 100 times too if that were me
Y'all these interviewers need firing. Let me interview Mackenyu 😭 I've watched him on screen since he debuted as an actor 😭😭
The 😌💅 in the scene at 0:45 sent me 😂 So fitting.
He's Japanese and ya'll got to know that. I love his flex
1:01 inaki already knew what was coming
he be so done with mackenyu's shenanigans😂
I am not japanese but I’m also proud for the japanese for being japanese
His English is just too good that's why they thought he's not Japanese
And everyone who read manga or watch anime in the past decades pretty much grew up with One Piece, regardless of their nationality 😂😂 These interviewers could do better Qs
I LOVEEE YOUR VIDEOS ❤❤❤❤ now please edit genV
I was actually just thinking of doing so😁👍
His ring oh his fingger 😭😭😭😭
he's a taken man😔
Married boi
I fully understand Mackenyu . Before asking these questions, interviewers should make their homework.
One Piece Day is celebrated on July 22 as the anniversary of One Piece. It was established as an official anniversary by the Japan Anniversary Association in 2017.
Mackenyu is very proud of being japanese (who happenned to be delivered in US -- I'm joking). Japanese culture is known by its mangas and One Piece is there for decades.
Mackenyu used to watch japanese movies and was inspired by a japanese actor when he was 15 and made the decision to become an actor.
My opinion is if I were a journalist, I would study every actor I was about to interview to make different and intelligent question.
Mackenyu is very educated and intelligent, he might be bored with so many repetitive question.
Just saying.
i can't with the emoji in the thumbnail with flower crown and tongue out
I mean….he IS Japanese and they keep asking him questions as if he’s not.
he is sick of that question 😂😂
How do you forget he's Japanese like HOW.
Tbh the one piece interviewers do get some leeway with the anime/one piece fan stuff since those were group questions, and being Japanese doesn't automatically mean you like them.
But getting those questions repeatedly when you literally are Japanese definitely must be annoying XD
This popped up on my algorithm and now I’m intrigued by this man 😂😂😂
you should check out my other videos for more of him😉
Mine too. It's funny because he sounds like he is from Southern California, that's where I am from, and we have California accent when we speak.
@@aliciaanguiano3860 he was born in california but left to japan when he was 18 i think
He’s the Logic version of Japan 😂😂😂
I find is so funny someone else noticed 😂
I find it really funny but also really great because of the fact he is so proud of his culture. I feel like a lot of people from around the world when they grow up in the USA they start to either not care of become embarrassed of their culture so I find it really great that he is so proud of it 🙃
Hes japanese but he can passed as any foriegn beauty coz of his looks and he has a big type of bones esp his face that it looks him different to me ,,and born in america and idk if raised to then went back to japan since both of his brother are born in AMERICA...and damn hes just 27 still young and yet hes already married.
no he looks completely Japanese there are many full blooded Japanese people who have this kind of look btw
you just have a very narrow view on Japanese people looks
GIMEE THAT MIC
HE IS SO DONE WITH IT😂😂
I don't know him but dude I was really laughing so hard when he's emphasizing HE IS JAPANESE
😂 he made sure everyone knew
He is so cool aaaaaa
his role as Zoro: 🔪😈💣⚔️😒
Him irl: 😊❤🫣🫶🙃
This has the same energy as "I'm Jackson Wang from China" 😂
Name mackenyu arata from japan 😂😂😂😂😂😂
what does it have to do with it?
Why?China
His father was literally THE Sonny Chiba. You know, the freaking Hattori Hanzo from kill bill and soo many big japanese movies
Hahaha he's the kind of friend I wanted to annoy, like call an anime a cartoon, just to see their cute annoyed reaction LOL
WTF bro
The way he responds to Inaki when he asks if they were familiar with One Piece is GOLD TvT "I GEW UP *death stare like Inaki you should know this* soooooo yeah" (total Luffy and Zoro moment here)
he's so handsome!
Reminds me of Jackson wang, love it!❤
LMAOO IT NEEDS TO BE KNOWN THAT BRO IS JAPANESE AND GREW UP WITH ANIME [offended]
It's like asking if an American has ever watched spongebob
I'm not American and I watched It.
I relate to this. I'm a halfie like him but I grew up in Thailand (half English) but I also speak in an "international" accent which sounds vaguely American because of all the pop culture I consumed growing up.
I speak both languages fluently but people always get surprised when I say that I'm Thai first and foremost and they'll say "You don't sound Thai" or "You don't look Thai" or be surprised that I cheer for the Thai national team or consume Thai media and I hardly relate to my British side since I've literally never lived there.
hes not a halfie.. dad is sonny chiba and mom is a non celeb japanese. hes 100% japanese just spent some time in the us in his childhood
@@reigenlucilfer6154 Ooh, I did not know that, I always thought he was a halfie since he does have some distinct features similar to me albeit A LOT more handsome haha.
Mackenyu is not half(ethnically).
Its like asking indonesian : " Are you fan of indomie?"
I think they ask as to not assume anything. It's stupid, but apparently even educated assumptions get people hated.
Isn’t he Japanese-American? He grew up in Cali, didn’t he?
Yes, but he's a full Japanese (both parents are Japanese). He stayed in LA until he was in high school, and then moved to Japan where he also started working as an actor. When he turned 18, he denounced his American citizenship since Japan's laws only allow one nationality.
He's proud❤
Some of these questions are fine. I have friends who are Japanese/grew up in Japan and do not like anime or just aren’t interested.
Ok,boomer.
yup, he is japanese
Lol I relate so hard with this. People easily forget/dismiss your nationality when they hear you speak English with an American accent. They just think you’re American xD
I think Makenyu just afraid to get lost like Zoro. He needs to reminded as Japanese before he forgot 😅
the kim kardashian clip pfftkskfkfkdkdk
🤭
His father's dream is to have a Japanese actor in Hollywood, and I think he pursues Mackenyu to be in that place. That is why he planned for Mackenyu to be born and study in the US while still having the ethics of being Japanese. You know, the Japanese have difficulties with the American language; that's why it's hard for them to enter Hollywood. But Japan is very famous when it comes to anime and horror movies; no one can beat them.👌
For sure, his father was really proud of him, seeing Mackenyu living his dream come true.
He thinks that they don't know who he is😅😅😅😅

Bro,stop saying weeaboo around out of context,that's cringe af. Be normal.
How is it out of context? He made a valid point. He's saying he's basically reminding everyone he Japanese so that it negates anyone thinking of him as some anime obsessed American.

Nah but i wouldnt wanna assume just cuz ur indian doesnt mean u like bollywood. Just cuz ur korean doesnt mean you like kpop. Just bcuz ur american doesnt mean you like country. So i will ask u anyways bc it would be racist to me to be like oh ofc u like anime cuz ur japanese.
If they were to reboot Kuuga or ZX like they did with BlackSun and Amazons he should star as the main protagonist.
as an American of Japanese descent I am honestly so turned on by this hahahaha
Love Japanese actors, I just feel so bad that the interviewers, as in more than one, didn’t know Makenyu is actually from Japan! The dude has done so much Japanese work, I mean, seriously! His American accent is stellar but still, do your research! it’s easy to see how much that annoyed him and rightly so.
Give me that 🎤😂😂😂

hey yall uhm mackenyu is JAPANESE.. oh you did not hear me? hes JAPANESE and he grew up in JAPAN
Because American come from many many many races. So, they maybe think that all of the cast are citizen of America.
No,I think It's because people don't assume that he's Japanese because he can speak fluent english.
Well... A Japanese playing a live action version of an anime character is asked if he likes anime? It's like asking a Mexican if they Tequila.
Equivalent to lady gaga being Italian
I would feel offended too if people asked me if I became a fan of one piece during the shooting 😭😭😭 I wouldn’t have taken the role at all if I hadn’t been a fan!!!
