The Japanese ruleset is highly respected in their society. The reason for their reserved behavior is rooted in the belief that actions such as, for instance, urinating on a toilet seat, can encroach upon the freedom of the next person who intends to use that toilet. This principle also extends to the cleanliness of their surroundings, which is maintained out of respect for workers and those in the vicinity. All of these efforts are made to ensure that everyone can enjoy almost anything, as each person upholds their freedom with respect and dignity. Traveling to Japan truly feels like stepping into another world.
That is a high iq take and insight that people like Johnny Somali are incapable of pondering. Not because Johnny is 23 years old and is, as all young people are - foolish and irreverent but because Johnny is from Somalia a country where barbarity is the agenda of the day in perpetuity its not in his mentality and culture to question the sorts of things that he does and how they can have an effect outside his lived experience. I try to be as tolerant as possible but even I have my limits. And people like Johnny push me over the edge and I have to say these sorts of things.
Other places were like this prior to the arrival of people with incompatible values. A significant part of why Japan is this way is because it is 99% Japanese, so they think similarly. They enforce their values too, rather than being a 'free for all'.

Indeed. They really shouldn't assume that other countries with a culture of civility (like Japan) wouldn't take action against this shit. The "quiet" ones often turn nasty when you push them too hard. The Japanese legislature itself is starting to look into this crap. Ideally they could just restrict Kick's (or any offending platform) access to the country, making livestreaming impossible (and near-impossible even with a vpn). Worst-case scenario would be that _anyone_ trying to stream or take vids in Japan would have to apply for a permit (similar to a broadcast license), and anyone without one would be sent to jail.
I want prank channels gone also. It's just harassing people. Also those family channels of them scaring there kids when the kids should feel the safest.
Heavens forbid you do any actual documentary in some conflict zone. You not only likely going to get demonetized but also thrown in jail if you dare to return to your homeland for the heinous crime of showing wrong things.
As someone that wants to live in Japan someday. These people disgust me. They are slowly ruining the chance for people like me who genuinely have an interest in their culture and history.
@Karasuza_soraIt’s not just these people that are causing problems. Ever since the borders reopened after COVID, foreigners have been absolutely FLOODING into the country. There are multiple articles from Japanese sources talking about the increased litter, trespassing, and congestion that has come with their return. Expect things to continue getting worse in the coming months/years as the tourism numbers continue to skyrocket out of control.
This is a personal pet peeve of mine. Japan is one of the most beautiful places that I've ever been. Taking advantage of their politeness infuriates me.
I used to live there, served there for a few years. I took instructions from my superiors very seriously to present a good image of Americans. The first word I learned was ‘gomennassai’ meaning sorry. I almost never interacted with people, didn’t get into conflicts with men, never even looked at the women for too long to not make them uncomfortable. I loved them all though. Tried to look out for them too, just because it’s a soldiers job to protect and that’s where we were placed. I’m very introverted so I fit perfectly in a place where everyone is quiet and politely minds their own business. All this to say, this breaks my heart and makes me incensed. If we’d have caught people pulling crap like this when we were there we’d have pounded them into the street.
That's very admirable. I was never in the military, but whenever I visit another country, I always bother to learn the most basic words like "Good day", "Yes/No", "Thank you", "Sorry" and so forth. It is completely unbelievable to me how someone can travel to another country and then disrespect and harrass the people there, the idea of that really maddens me a lot. I feel nothing but contempt for people like that; the fact that those streamers (or youtubers, whatever) try to make money by doing that on top of all makes it even more deplorable. I honestly hope Japan kicks them all out and bans them from re-entry.
I'm really pissed off, I love Japan and I don't want visitors to be seen as causing problems. Unfortunately, it is because of people like this that it will end this way Greetings from Poland
It pisses me off as well like this isn't new but it's getting out of hand now especially with content creators doing things to disrupt the peace for views.
Actually a recent update on Somali, he has been rearrested on another charge of streaming in a cafe where it was illegal. This was from one of his earlier streams. He was rearrested whilst in jail meaning they can keep him for a further 23 days. If they keep doing this for every illegal thing he did before he is even brought before court, hes in for a long stay.
@@dorsia6938 i correct myself, Japan has a 99.8 percent conviction rate in cases that go to trial, according to 2021 Supreme Court statistics, so the decision to indict or not has enormous significance. Also max sentence is 3 years and/or 100.000 Yen fine
I've lived in Japan for 18 years and can see this happening. Hopefully it's only in the tourist areas, because the negative impression will only make problems for those of us just looking to get on with our lives.
They forgot that Japan have 99% conviction rate because they break prisoners while waiting for a court trial and force a confession. Good luck to that guy who keep smiling while being escorted to jail that maybe his last smile.
The law has strict regulations and rules of interrogation because police used to treat suspects inhumanly and force them to confess their crimes but that was happening a few decades ago. Japan has 99% conviction rate because police has to investigate well enough to get definite evidence for prosecutions BEFORE arresting. This is the reason why japan's police took so long to arrest Somali. But police could arrest him multiple times according to how many crimes he committed and extend his imprisonment on each arrest. That gives police more time to do further investigations. Well this sounds inhumane enough to make people say "they break pisoners" I guess. I might be not so correct but this is what I know as a japanese. Sorry for my poor english.
@@maaaaayaaa Fortunately these idiots film their crimes and post it online. All the police had to do was wait for the moment to strike. I think bloggers/streamers who are old enough to know bothering people, harassing, and breaking the laws for clout should be make an example off. I really hope Japan is harsh with Somali. To humble his ass real quick. Now that would be worth watching.
These streamers are like an invasive species. When that live in there own habitat it was okays, since the ecosystem know how to deal with it, but once they are outside they are going to wreak a havoc like this. I wish we could deal with them like we would on an invasive specie.
As a guy with a felony in my record, it was already a concern for me to travel as it is. I do my best to be respectful when traveling, but these recent non-criminal record people are ruining it for people like me who want to respectfully travel.
Japan holds a special place in my heart. I feel incredibly lucky that I was able to visit in 2016. It's extremely sad to see this behavior as it does cast a negative light on other foreign travelers and UA-camrs.
Since one of Japan biggest revenue is Tourism, they already have a history of bad Tourist coming to Japan. As far as i Remember before the Logan Paul and Jhonny somali incident the problem are with chinese tourist. Well i hope this problem eventually stop.
yep some people are worry about tourist-banning America ,they don't know how china shit on Japan ,and it's not banned ,see the recent incident about nuclear water ,how chinese make prank call and harass japanese restaurant ,and they always do scalping in Japan.
I hate livestreamers going into cafés or bars (often just enclosed areas) etc Loud, obnoxious and unfair to the other customers. Banning them from those places is a win imo, atleast not without permission first.
Pewdiepie makes respectable video vlogs while living in Japan. I really enjoy how wholesome his content has been these past few years. Congrats to him for being a new father btw
... because Japan is a civilized and polite Country. Like the West before the 1960's. My grandparents who traveled from Yemen to Australia were shocked at how friendly people were in public.
What’s really pathetic is the fact the UA-cam itself doesn’t step in and tell these UA-camr clowns to cut it out or be banned from the site. UA-cam is turning into a dumpster fire real quick.
If this goes on, it wouldn't be surprising to see the EU drag Google into the ground for paying these streamers (and earnings ad revenue from them) despite being fully aware that they're criminals.
When I was stationed in Okinawa (Air Force), the Marines got into so much trouble that almost every restaurant and bar had signs that said "NO GAIJIN!"
Doubtful, tourism is such a large part of their country's income. Besides if there was one country to ban, it would be China. Mainland Chinese tourists are notorious for being inconsiderate of the countries they visit.
Nah, they'd never forbid the US passport bro. Plenty of people come here for business too, there's not a way in hell they'd outlaw their best military, financial, and cultural ally's citizens from entering.
Wow, that was a really well-made video from Abroad in Japan. I thought that the commentary from both Christopher Broad and Asmon here was very transparent. They sent a direct message to the audience that this kind of behavior is not ok. Content creators like Asmongold and Abroad in Japan deserve more recognition and respect than the likes of these fools.
the problem is that this prankster have no reason to stop. they stream in platform that love this kind of content. their audience is build around incels, racist and homophobic people. you have no idea the horrible shit this people get away with in japan.
I'm old enough to remember Tom Green being the OG nuisance in Japan. He had a whole mini series of him being a weird, loud and obnoxious in Japan on MTV. Luckily UA-cam wasn't around then or this trend might have started sooner. I actually liked Tom Green, but yeah I just felt bad for the people he was bothering who clearly wanted to be left alone, but it just wasn't in their nature to say something to this weird foreigner purposely slurping ramen as loud as possible right next to them (making fun of a custom where slurping ramen shows that you're enjoying it.) Tom didn't break the law, although I don't think the rental car company would've been too happy with him luring monkeys into a car with food and then locking the door.
Just came back from Japan a week ago, they do not allow you to film inside business locations, museums, etc and that is because of all these d...heads.
10 years for being annoying is orwellian and absurd. If the US locked up a foreign national for 10 years for doing this there would be international outrage. Any amount of jailtime beyond a month is not warranted.Being permanently banned from the entire country for the rest of your life with no chance to return is more then enough punishment on its own.
This just makes me sad. We say it's because Japan is the way it is that people take advantage, but it's really not just that. Before Logan Paul did it there was always a precedent; Japanese TV culture in game shows and anime and advertisements have made it seem like people do crazy shit in Japan when that was literally always meant to be a contrasting juxtaposition with a reserved culture. Because in Japan their entertainment is not about "representation". It's about enjoyment. It's hypothetical. It's curated. And most of all, by being all those things, it's safe and not problematic. At what point did we give life to people without the ability to tell the difference?
There is actually manga called Deadtube - plot is basically about a bunch of people making videos for website that gives rewards for most viewed videos AND punishments for the lowest viewed ones. So in the begginging, people are just pulling bunch of pranks, then that gets outdated so they start really bully people, then viewers get bored, so there is a 1st real assault and on an on and then it just escalates into the most horrifying shit imaginable, just to get more views - because if you don't and your viewership drops down enough, black van pulls up and you're never seen again. Well, I think Japan is in 1st season right now xD
Logan Paul was the first one to do it and a lot of the people doing this today were impressionable teenagers at that time. This is the effect and legacy of that content coming to fruition.
It's insane to me they decided to do that in Japan - a country of 99.9% conviction rate - just because people are humble and calm enough there's no imminent consequences.
I am a salaryman. Anime and games is pretty much my life. I could probably visit Japan once in my lifetime (maybe twice, if it's ok to hope), and I would very much like to have that experience recorded so that when I'm old, I could still relive the experience from watching that recording. These idiots are ruining this nice thing and it has not even materialized yet!
this guy missed the part where Finneas was actually smiling, like a very large smile with all those starving children around him, so he edited the thumbnail slightly after receiving hate, and that was the final result lmao he just changed his face from smiling to being shocked.
Unfortunately, Japan never learned what we all did in middle school. Fight your bullies. Because what happens when you listen to teacher and ignore them? They torture you harder because you made yourself an easy target... Sad but true.
I think another problem and you can see it here in these comments is peoples weird obsession with Japan. Thats why it's popular to go to Japan as a content creator imo. People watch anime and read about Japan on wiki and all of a sudden they are experts on Japan and Japanese culture. Shits so weird to me man
I am from El Salvador, thankfully the youtubers visiting have not been shit and actually hope we take care of annoying people like wanting to eat or stay for free because they think they are famous.
Thank you so much Asmon for covering this. This kind of behavior has to be called out and held accountable at all times. If not, it only brings out more douchebags.
This is why I try to find quiet places here in Finland. The culture is similar in that people keep to themselves and generally resent anyone who is being, indeed, a nuisance.
Oh the Yakuza are very well up and running in Japan still. They stand out way less than like in 80s and 90s but are engrained into politics and major corporations.
Developed countries are based on trust (amongst other things). Sadly there'll always be uncivilised and egocentric people taking advantage of this ruining it for everyone... including themselves over time... they just don't get it.
This is saddening, Japan is a beautiful country, and the people are awesome. It is holy land for many and a dream vacation for myself. I cannot imagine going there as an American and being a FOOL.
This is why people in Asian countries, or in this case, the Japanese, tend to be xenophobic and distant from foreigners. And people who come to these countries always say that the natives are only friendly when you speak their language. Well, no shit, that is the only way they can distinguish the ones that seriously respect their culture from people like Somali.
@@TB-us7el i mean honestly, japanese people are pretty polite. If somali did what he does,but in america, he would eventually meet someone that would kick the shit out of him or worse
I have lived in Japan for more than 10 years and I think that Japanese people are not xenophobic, but rather just nervous when foreigners are around because they don't want to speak English.
0:58 or in Mexico (please don't do it), as a mexican myself I can tell that if you come from outside is pretty easy for you to be accepted and loved by locals but it's way easier to get into big trouble if you are looking for that by messing with the wrong people, you will be amazed on how fast is to go from heaven to hell. I think that wherever you go, respect is an universal language that helps to keep things in peace regardless of the language you speak.
4:00 I’m reminded of the tweet about how some Europeans didn’t tip cuz “they don’t do that in their culture” and despite our universal hatred for tips everyone shit talked the Europeans for being utter douches about it
he deleted it because he is still in japan and jr east isnt known to be kind...if he doesnt pay the countless fine im sure he is gonna get he will be forced to work on a jr position till the fine is paid by deducting the salary
Never thought I'd see the day Zack would be watching Chris! Very glad to see this crossover covering such an important issue! The Japanese public (certainly the older generations) already tend to be a bit wary of foreigners but this disgraceful behaviour is worsening our reputation even further! I really hope it stops soon as I (from the UK) seek to live in Japan in the near future and do not wish to face negative assumptions because of some morons who want to exploit Japanese hospitality in order to make a quick bit of cash.
Somali got a 5 years sentence in prison for his behavior. Being online doesn't mean you should act like a douchebag and profit from it. These media companies are partially responsible, Kick, Twitch, Tiktok, and UA-cam alike. They also should find themselves penalized.
I want to say some people that have hard time communicating are not that stupid, like me where I have some trouble communicating but it's usually that I know what I want to say but the way it comes is sometimes incomprehensible
I have never been to Japan and probably never will but this pisses me off something fierce because these scumbags are taking advantage of the Japanese people's graciousness and hospitality and spitting in their faces. You don't go to another person's house and act like you own the place! These people need to be held accountable not just by the Japanese authorities but by their home countries' authorities and their citizens. The actions of these losers reflect badly on all of us even if we had nothing to do with it. Our reputation as Americans in other countries should be pristine. Edit: This is off the cuff shit I'm about to write, but I think its crazy that some trifling ass 3rd worlder can come to America, get a passport fly the red, white and blue (Metaphorically speaking) and ruin our reputation in an instant. America and the department of Homeland security really needs to up their standards on who enters the country and let alone who gets citizenship. Because America is literally letting anyone come in and that ain't cool. This is why we need standards.
I think any influencer who goes over there needs to have a third degree questioning on what they intend to do and then kicked out if they go against that. I mean i wanna go there someday and i don't wanna have people looking down on me for the reason of my eing a foreigner.. ( i have a roken key sooo a letter isn't working. idk how to fix this)
in China we have a crime called 'Picking quarrels and provoking trouble', pretty much a pocket crime for anyone the authority Doesn't like but no crime to pin it on. For once I feel that this crime has it's up side, it can get people like that.

Tried to look out for them too, just because it’s a soldiers job to protect and that’s where we were placed. I’m very introverted so I fit perfectly in a place where everyone is quiet and politely minds their own business.
All this to say, this breaks my heart and makes me incensed. If we’d have caught people pulling crap like this when we were there we’d have pounded them into the street.
That's very admirable. I was never in the military, but whenever I visit another country, I always bother to learn the most basic words like "Good day", "Yes/No", "Thank you", "Sorry" and so forth. It is completely unbelievable to me how someone can travel to another country and then disrespect and harrass the people there, the idea of that really maddens me a lot.
I feel nothing but contempt for people like that; the fact that those streamers (or youtubers, whatever) try to make money by doing that on top of all makes it even more deplorable.
I honestly hope Japan kicks them all out and bans them from re-entry.
how do you say sorry in American?
@@TB-us7el “Sorry” or “My bad.” or “I apologize.”
You know, the same way you say sorry in English.
Did you ever see "Our Job in Japan"? You might like it as a former soldier.
I'm really pissed off, I love Japan and I don't want visitors to be seen as causing problems. Unfortunately, it is because of people like this that it will end this way
Greetings from Poland
there is always someone ruining it for the rest of us
It pisses me off as well like this isn't new but it's getting out of hand now especially with content creators doing things to disrupt the peace for views.
polska gurom
We get it you watch anime
Tons of respect for the Japanese. Makes me mad to see idiots doing what they're doing over there
Chris Broad on baldy's channel? What timeline is this lmao
Actually a recent update on Somali, he has been rearrested on another charge of streaming in a cafe where it was illegal. This was from one of his earlier streams. He was rearrested whilst in jail meaning they can keep him for a further 23 days. If they keep doing this for every illegal thing he did before he is even brought before court, hes in for a long stay.
I thought they sentenced him to 5yrs?
@@dorsia6938 not yet, but something like that is the max sentence for trespassing (which he is accused of, and japanese have 99% conviction rate)
@@dorsia6938 i correct myself, Japan has a 99.8 percent conviction rate in cases that go to trial, according to 2021 Supreme Court statistics, so the decision to indict or not has enormous significance. Also max sentence is 3 years and/or 100.000 Yen fine
@@jewhunterbiden~1000usd is not a lot.... they should charge more for this behavior
Biden will get him out, Americas protected class cant be allowed to face the consequences of their actions.
I've lived in Japan for 18 years and can see this happening. Hopefully it's only in the tourist areas, because the negative impression will only make problems for those of us just looking to get on with our lives.
They forgot that Japan have 99% conviction rate because they break prisoners while waiting for a court trial and force a confession. Good luck to that guy who keep smiling while being escorted to jail that maybe his last smile.
The law has strict regulations and rules of interrogation because police used to treat suspects inhumanly and force them to confess their crimes but that was happening a few decades ago.
Japan has 99% conviction rate because police has to investigate well enough to get definite evidence for prosecutions BEFORE arresting. This is the reason why japan's police took so long to arrest Somali.
But police could arrest him multiple times according to how many crimes he committed and extend his imprisonment on each arrest. That gives police more time to do further investigations. Well this sounds inhumane enough to make people say "they break pisoners" I guess.
I might be not so correct but this is what I know as a japanese. Sorry for my poor english.
@@maaaaayaaa Fortunately these idiots film their crimes and post it online. All the police had to do was wait for the moment to strike. I think bloggers/streamers who are old enough to know bothering people, harassing, and breaking the laws for clout should be make an example off. I really hope Japan is harsh with Somali. To humble his ass real quick. Now that would be worth watching.
I thought it was because they are so indoctrinated they just believe if someone is arrested they must be guilty.
These streamers are like an invasive species. When that live in there own habitat it was okays, since the ecosystem know how to deal with it, but once they are outside they are going to wreak a havoc like this. I wish we could deal with them like we would on an invasive specie.
As a guy with a felony in my record, it was already a concern for me to travel as it is. I do my best to be respectful when traveling, but these recent non-criminal record people are ruining it for people like me who want to respectfully travel.
Nothing quite like recording your crimes for all the internet to see and then being surprised when they arrest you and throw the book at you 😂
Japan holds a special place in my heart. I feel incredibly lucky that I was able to visit in 2016. It's extremely sad to see this behavior as it does cast a negative light on other foreign travelers and UA-camrs.
I am 100% behind Japan throwing any IRL streamer doing this crap in jail for 20+ years if they want.
Since one of Japan biggest revenue is Tourism, they already have a history of bad Tourist coming to Japan. As far as i Remember before the Logan Paul and Jhonny somali incident the problem are with chinese tourist. Well i hope this problem eventually stop.
i think japan is going to get more stri t with streamers...cause this culture is creating toxic japanese streamers as well.
yep some people are worry about tourist-banning America ,they don't know how china shit on Japan ,and it's not banned ,see the recent incident about nuclear water ,how chinese make prank call and harass japanese restaurant ,and they always do scalping in Japan.
If goes back to Jackass.
I hate livestreamers going into cafés or bars (often just enclosed areas) etc Loud, obnoxious and unfair to the other customers. Banning them from those places is a win imo, atleast not without permission first.
Pewdiepie makes respectable video vlogs while living in Japan. I really enjoy how wholesome his content has been these past few years. Congrats to him for being a new father btw
... because Japan is a civilized and polite Country. Like the West before the 1960's. My grandparents who traveled from Yemen to Australia were shocked at how friendly people were in public.
That's because back then in Australia there wasn't as many Monk..E's running amok. :)
people are friendly in public in most countries in the world especially to foreigners
you feel superior right now , dont you ?@@trackpadkiller6082
The west before 1960? Bruh. We were gassing jews and gay people back then.
@@trackpadkiller6082 Damn lots of racists in asmon's community huh?
Sometimes those people just disappear and never resurface. The trick is to use rocks heavy enough and a proper cloth bag like the one Santa uses.
Chris has finally made it big if Asmondgold is watching him.
Bro Chris is famous
Chris was a lot bigger before asmon got big on youtube lmao
He watched even nonames if video is good. Chill dude
Bruh people like Pewdiepie watch Chris and he's even appeared in some of his vids. Chris is a lot more famous than even he knows
What’s really pathetic is the fact the UA-cam itself doesn’t step in and tell these UA-camr clowns to cut it out or be banned from the site. UA-cam is turning into a dumpster fire real quick.
If this goes on, it wouldn't be surprising to see the EU drag Google into the ground for paying these streamers (and earnings ad revenue from them) despite being fully aware that they're criminals.
When I was stationed in Okinawa (Air Force), the Marines got into so much trouble that almost every restaurant and bar had signs that said "NO GAIJIN!"
A few establishments have that. Apparently the Russians are a real nuisance too.
Wow. Abroad in Japan been recognized by Asmon-Papa.
American passport gonna be forbidden in Japan soon if that keeps going 😅
Sadly, I’m starting to understand why some Japanese establishments don’t allow foreigners.
Always a work around like getting a dual citizenship from out of America like Canada. Very easy to get one if you have clean record
Doubtful, tourism is such a large part of their country's income. Besides if there was one country to ban, it would be China. Mainland Chinese tourists are notorious for being inconsiderate of the countries they visit.
@sonnyson01 Absolutely insufferable! So bad that the CCP put out a travel announcement for them to be more "considerate" when touring.
Nah, they'd never forbid the US passport bro. Plenty of people come here for business too, there's not a way in hell they'd outlaw their best military, financial, and cultural ally's citizens from entering.
These platforms that they are on, that provides them monetization, should also take responsibility.
Wow, that was a really well-made video from Abroad in Japan. I thought that the commentary from both Christopher Broad and Asmon here was very transparent. They sent a direct message to the audience that this kind of behavior is not ok. Content creators like Asmongold and Abroad in Japan deserve more recognition and respect than the likes of these fools.
the problem is that this prankster have no reason to stop. they stream in platform that love this kind of content.
their audience is build around incels, racist and homophobic people. you have no idea the horrible shit this people get away with in japan.
I'm old enough to remember Tom Green being the OG nuisance in Japan. He had a whole mini series of him being a weird, loud and obnoxious in Japan on MTV. Luckily UA-cam wasn't around then or this trend might have started sooner. I actually liked Tom Green, but yeah I just felt bad for the people he was bothering who clearly wanted to be left alone, but it just wasn't in their nature to say something to this weird foreigner purposely slurping ramen as loud as possible right next to them (making fun of a custom where slurping ramen shows that you're enjoying it.) Tom didn't break the law, although I don't think the rental car company would've been too happy with him luring monkeys into a car with food and then locking the door.
Just came back from Japan a week ago, they do not allow you to film inside business locations, museums, etc and that is because of all these d...heads.
I think johnny should get 10 years, he needs to be made into an example. When he gets out, hell already be long forgotten.
10 years for being annoying is orwellian and absurd. If the US locked up a foreign national for 10 years for doing this there would be international outrage. Any amount of jailtime beyond a month is not warranted.Being permanently banned from the entire country for the rest of your life with no chance to return is more then enough punishment on its own.
This just makes me sad. We say it's because Japan is the way it is that people take advantage, but it's really not just that. Before Logan Paul did it there was always a precedent; Japanese TV culture in game shows and anime and advertisements have made it seem like people do crazy shit in Japan when that was literally always meant to be a contrasting juxtaposition with a reserved culture. Because in Japan their entertainment is not about "representation". It's about enjoyment. It's hypothetical. It's curated. And most of all, by being all those things, it's safe and not problematic. At what point did we give life to people without the ability to tell the difference?
Chris does some really great content around Japan. Probably my favourite English speaking Japan content creator.
There is actually manga called Deadtube - plot is basically about a bunch of people making videos for website that gives rewards for most viewed videos AND punishments for the lowest viewed ones. So in the begginging, people are just pulling bunch of pranks, then that gets outdated so they start really bully people, then viewers get bored, so there is a 1st real assault and on an on and then it just escalates into the most horrifying shit imaginable, just to get more views - because if you don't and your viewership drops down enough, black van pulls up and you're never seen again. Well, I think Japan is in 1st season right now xD
I had to stop reading that pretty quickly cos it was just senseless gore at some point
pretty close to the internet society we're in now , black van = algorithm ,like getting shadowbanned on twitter or reach rate cut on Facebook
Logan Paul was the first one to do it and a lot of the people doing this today were impressionable teenagers at that time. This is the effect and legacy of that content coming to fruition.
It's insane to me they decided to do that in Japan - a country of 99.9% conviction rate - just because people are humble and calm enough there's no imminent consequences.
yea their conviction rate is fucking insane
how come their conviction rate is so high? Is it a fault, or just strict? @@MoistYoghurt
Streaming services needs to be responsible. They paying for this.
I'm pretty sure that most foreigners in Japan are rather polite. But no press talks about them so we don't even notice.
Abroad in Japan is awesome! Him and Cdawg always put out hilarious and informational content about Japan. Good to see Asmon give him a view.
I am a salaryman. Anime and games is pretty much my life. I could probably visit Japan once in my lifetime (maybe twice, if it's ok to hope), and I would very much like to have that experience recorded so that when I'm old, I could still relive the experience from watching that recording. These idiots are ruining this nice thing and it has not even materialized yet!
seek help.
@@TB-us7el ?
お待ちしています。日本より。
this guy missed the part where Finneas was actually smiling, like a very large smile with all those starving children around him, so he edited the thumbnail slightly after receiving hate, and that was the final result lmao he just changed his face from smiling to being shocked.
Unfortunately, Japan never learned what we all did in middle school. Fight your bullies.
Because what happens when you listen to teacher and ignore them? They torture you harder because you made yourself an easy target... Sad but true.
Asmon watches the best Japan youtuber A'Broad in Japan. Best reaction ever : D
Japan needs to introduce Singapore style public cannings. Needless to say, Singapore doesn't have a Nuisance UA-camr problem.
definition of taking kindness for weakness
just let the Yakuza take care of them and people will stop doing stuff like this pretty quickly.
I think another problem and you can see it here in these comments is peoples weird obsession with Japan. Thats why it's popular to go to Japan as a content creator imo. People watch anime and read about Japan on wiki and all of a sudden they are experts on Japan and Japanese culture. Shits so weird to me man
They're a called weeaboo, mf can't play a game or watch a video without japanese voice dub. Smh
como latinoamericano que no vive en el salvador, concuerdo, aca no lo hacen porque el video terminaria en hospital o muerte....
I am from El Salvador, thankfully the youtubers visiting have not been shit and actually hope we take care of annoying people like wanting to eat or stay for free because they think they are famous.
To say it with a very well known Phrase: "And thats why we cant have nice things"
Also there is a stereotype in Japan about foreigners and all this does is give the stereotype solid footing.
Thank you so much Asmon for covering this. This kind of behavior has to be called out and held accountable at all times. If not, it only brings out more douchebags.
This is why I try to find quiet places here in Finland. The culture is similar in that people keep to themselves and generally resent anyone who is being, indeed, a nuisance.
Japan needs to square up, or the Yakuza needs to rise once more 🐉
Kazuma Kiryu will deal with them.
Oh the Yakuza are very well up and running in Japan still. They stand out way less than like in 80s and 90s but are engrained into politics and major corporations.
Those guys sould do this here in the south bronx. Love to see it
Developed countries are based on trust (amongst other things). Sadly there'll always be uncivilised and egocentric people taking advantage of this ruining it for everyone... including themselves over time... they just don't get it.
This is saddening, Japan is a beautiful country, and the people are awesome. It is holy land for many and a dream vacation for myself. I cannot imagine going there as an American and being a FOOL.
This is why people in Asian countries, or in this case, the Japanese, tend to be xenophobic and distant from foreigners. And people who come to these countries always say that the natives are only friendly when you speak their language. Well, no shit, that is the only way they can distinguish the ones that seriously respect their culture from people like Somali.
Anime avatar, check...excuses for behavior from Japanese you wouldn't accept from others, check. how suprising...🙄
@@TB-us7el i mean honestly, japanese people are pretty polite. If somali did what he does,but in america, he would eventually meet someone that would kick the shit out of him or worse
@@stuff4812 I don't support Jonny's behaviour. I just pointed hypocrisy of the anime avatar guy. Two wrongs don't make a right.
I have lived in Japan for more than 10 years and I think that Japanese people are not xenophobic, but rather just nervous when foreigners are around because they don't want to speak English.
0:58 or in Mexico (please don't do it), as a mexican myself I can tell that if you come from outside is pretty easy for you to be accepted and loved by locals but it's way easier to get into big trouble if you are looking for that by messing with the wrong people, you will be amazed on how fast is to go from heaven to hell. I think that wherever you go, respect is an universal language that helps to keep things in peace regardless of the language you speak.
4:00
I’m reminded of the tweet about how some Europeans didn’t tip cuz “they don’t do that in their culture” and despite our universal hatred for tips everyone shit talked the Europeans for being utter douches about it
His channel is awesome, tons of excellent videos about living in Japan.
Can't believe I'm seeing Mr. Affable/Barry Chopsticks through Asmongold
Never thought i see the day Asmongold reacts to an abroad in japan video. This is awesome!!!
he deleted it because he is still in japan and jr east isnt known to be kind...if he doesnt pay the countless fine im sure he is gonna get he will be forced to work on a jr position till the fine is paid by deducting the salary
The much anticipated Asmon and Mr. Affable crossover
Love watching Chris, his content is top notch quality.
Isn't that against YTs terms of service? Why aren't they de-platformed for using YT to distribute videos of them committing crimes in other countries?
Never expected this crossover to happen 😅
Thank you for watching this video, this is a very important video because behaviour these nuisance youtubers show should be called out.
Never thought I'd see the day Zack would be watching Chris! Very glad to see this crossover covering such an important issue! The Japanese public (certainly the older generations) already tend to be a bit wary of foreigners but this disgraceful behaviour is worsening our reputation even further! I really hope it stops soon as I (from the UK) seek to live in Japan in the near future and do not wish to face negative assumptions because of some morons who want to exploit Japanese hospitality in order to make a quick bit of cash.
Mr. Affable himself never thought about this.
They certainly make locals not want to be hospitable to americans or other people going there for a trip.
why would the locals be so closed minded as to judge every american by a few bad apples?
Ey' Mr Affable, didn't saw this coming xD
Why hasn't their channels been banned? Hold UA-cam accountable too, they're giving criminals a platform.
"I spent 100 Hours poking RANDOM YAKUZA MEMBERS with a STICK!"
How I spent 100 days in a Japanese hospital!
Somali got a 5 years sentence in prison for his behavior. Being online doesn't mean you should act like a douchebag and profit from it. These media companies are partially responsible, Kick, Twitch, Tiktok, and UA-cam alike. They also should find themselves penalized.
I mean Logan Paul started it all
I hope he gets a trial and we can make content of it
I want to say some people that have hard time communicating are not that stupid, like me where I have some trouble communicating but it's usually that I know what I want to say but the way it comes is sometimes incomprehensible
imagine looking back your past.
smiling like a donkey on acid while getting arrested.
I have never been to Japan and probably never will but this pisses me off something fierce because these scumbags are taking advantage of the Japanese people's graciousness and hospitality and spitting in their faces. You don't go to another person's house and act like you own the place!
These people need to be held accountable not just by the Japanese authorities but by their home countries' authorities and their citizens. The actions of these losers reflect badly on all of us even if we had nothing to do with it. Our reputation as Americans in other countries should be pristine.
Edit: This is off the cuff shit I'm about to write, but I think its crazy that some trifling ass 3rd worlder can come to America, get a passport fly the red, white and blue (Metaphorically speaking) and ruin our reputation in an instant. America and the department of Homeland security really needs to up their standards on who enters the country and let alone who gets citizenship. Because America is literally letting anyone come in and that ain't cool. This is why we need standards.
Imagine being a fan of that watching like 3-4 videos and then waiting few years for another one (guy got arrested) 😂
I think any influencer who goes over there needs to have a third degree questioning on what they intend to do and then kicked out if they go against that. I mean i wanna go there someday and i don't wanna have people looking down on me for the reason of my eing a foreigner.. ( i have a roken key sooo a letter isn't working. idk how to fix this)
in China we have a crime called 'Picking quarrels and provoking trouble', pretty much a pocket crime for anyone the authority Doesn't like but no crime to pin it on.
For once I feel that this crime has it's up side, it can get people like that.
Can someone tell me why he always streams on zackrawrr and not on asmongold? And also, why when he streams on asmongold he gets like double or triple the views?
Ive never understood that lol
He has to put double the energy for Asmongold persona, and he doesn't want to cus his responsibility is making him more stressful.
What's funny is that he is slowly returning to his Asmongold persona on zackrawrr as well, but he is doing it in his own tempo without stress
Split personality, Jekyll and Hyde (Zack and Asmon).
Unfortunately actual good harmless content creators like Chris Broad, CDawgVA, and especially Robcdee (since he's livestreaming on public places on an almost daily basis) are the ones that's gonna pay the price from the actions of these nuisance UA-camrs if these keep happening
Love abroad in japan’s videos and love this reaction from Asmongold
This is why the "gaijin" is frowned upon and why Japanese people prefer to stick to their own.
Realtalk though the bus driver taking the guy to the police and him being held for five hours over 20 cents was WILD.
what a timing
