みんなさん、ローガンを怒っていたら、外国人がローガンじゃないです。我々は日本の国や文化や人々が尊敬します。日本に住んでいる外国人は毎日頑張っています。あなたたちの優しさを本当にありがとうございます！

Logan doesn't only make foreigners in Japan look bad. He makes the whole human race look bad.

"Do you even understand Japan's culture of privacy?" I doubt he does, him and his brother don't even seem to understand the meaning of privacy in America.

I have a friend who moved to Japan mid last year. She's gone over to teach English. She's from Texas. Short little white girl, very friendly, very smart, but very white. I've talked to her since this has blown up, and it did blow up. She has been talked to by her foster home, by her employer, by a representative of the teacher exchange, and they all want to know the same thing: Did you know this guy? No, she did not. But I know for a fact it's become harder for her to be there after this. Things are starting to smooth out again, but slowly. She's said that the students all want to ask about things, but got more reserved around her, almost scared to say things. This is what happens when one person with a loud mouth and a camera does something like this.

Logan should be banned from the internet

This vid needs japanese subtitles, just so it can be spread around Japan that there are alot of people who dispise Logan Paul's actions.

There's going to be a lot of people trying to milk this subject for what it's worth but it's very obvious you care a lot about this subject and had a lot to add to the discussion - so thanks for that Gaijin.

I remember telling a person in my school what Logan Paul did. I told him about how he filmed a guy hanging himself in a Japanese suicide forest. The person asked, "Was the man hanging himself Japanese?" I respond "Most likley." He laughed at that. When I asked him why he laughed his response was "Japan bombed pearl harbor." That person's reaction to hear that Logan Paul filmed a persons hanging themself was disgusting just like Logan Paul's video. I asked him if he thought suicide was a joke and would he laugh if he saw someone he love hang themself. He said "No but Japan bombed pearl harbor!" I responded "That man who hung himself had a family who loved him and when Logan Paul filmed him and made jokes it was DISGUSTING! I can't believe you would LAUGH at that!" I was so close to ripping his head off. What Logan Paul did was disgusting and that kid in my school's reaction was disgusting.

"You have some God damn respect for yourself, for Japan, and for the dead!" Nailed it.

I know this is NOT at all what I usually do... But this was important to me, and I felt like this needed to be said.

"This is not who we are. What Logan did is not who we are." This is the moment for people, not just in the US but outside to remember that.

Rule number 1 of visiting a different country, doesn't matter which one. While there, _you_ represent _your_ country. You're from X and you're going to Y? In that case, Y will use you as an example of X. Be a bad example and you give your country a bad reputation, regardless of where you go. _Always_ be at your best behavior, _always_ respect their culture. And *_NEVER MAKE FUN OF SOMETHING LIKE SUICIDE!!_*

Wow, Logan literally ruined this man’s effort of suiting into Japanese custom which costed him several years. Logan should be paying for this. I can see why foreigners like this great man are getting pissed off. As Japanese, we totally accept you and we understand Logan is just minority but what he has done is huge. Edit** Thank you all for your thoughtful comments!

You shouldn't ever do ANYTHING like that in a foreign country. Hell, you shouldn't do it in YOUR country.

Japan didn’t deserve this

When Logan doing what he did. My college business class trip to Japan was cancelled. Due to all the terrible things he did and social norms and rules he broke.

Thank you, GaijinGoombah. As a foreigner in Japan who has accidentally broken some minor social norms (the video in an arcade thing comes to mind) and apologized in my best polite Japanese, the way Logan Paul acted was, as you said, inexcusable. I'm glad you voiced your opinion about this. I love Japan, and it's kept me very humble in some difficult times. I've put up with some really rough stuff but I was always able to get through because of the people around me. I have some amazing friends and acquaintances here, and I hope to make even more. Luckily, the people who get to know me don't see me as "the dumb American loudmouth." I hope I can continue to show people here that we are not all as egocentric as Logan Paul is.

Not to mention he disrespected America by embarassing us by confirming a stereotype

That is not just disrespecting Japan's culture... That is disrespecting the entire concept of humanity...

Lets respect logan Like how he "respected" japan

"I'm probably barking at nothing" You're not...

You don't even have to know Japanese culture to know it's completely gauche and wrong to film a dead body and make it public. Or that its rude and offensive to act out stereotypes in public.

I’m Japanese 😀 Needless to say,we are so angry... I cannot understand that the video” POKÉMON GO in TOKYO” have 260000 likes.😢(dislikes is 80000) Just I want to say, “please study Japanese manner(culture?)before visit to Japan😀” We are so happy that many foreign peoples visit and enjoy Japan!!! I cannot speak English well, sorry🙇

Logan Paul, the living, breathing proof that the genepool *NEEDS* a lifeguard

I know my comment will be drowned out by the other 11k+ comments, but this legitimately made me cry. While I haven't ever been to Japan, I have invested a lot of time learning about the culture and the second I read the title I literally almost cursed and as anyone will tell you that knows me, I never do that. I honestly think I put the thought aside because a lot of fellow Americans (and more) called Logan out, but honestly? The second I saw your thumb nail, I realized that that was complete wishful thinking. It really hit me hard when you talked about all those people you spent so long developing relationships with them and how he possibly just destroyed that chance for other people just- it pissed me off. I didn't know he existed before, I only found out due to this drama, but I wish it had stayed that way. The entire video was insulting and disgusting, even from a foreign perspective, not to mention it was completely insulting to people who have mental illnesses as well. Everything he did was a disaster and even though he sent out a few apologies, the second one was him semi defending what he did, and I don't think he even knows or cares about the awful damage that has been done. At this point my comment has gone on for far too long and it's not like anyone will see it anyway, but thank you sincerely for making this video. Honestly I was thinking about this more, and I can only imagine what some other amazing KZfaqrs who live in Japan and and are amazing people who are probably absolutely furious about this as well (Texan in Tokyo mainly comes to mind because she is a foreigner who teaches in Japan) and it all just feels like someone pouring salt in a deep stab wound and rubbing it in while the person doing it is laughing at your pain. Honestly this comment has now has become way too long, but I felt like I had to express that, and as I said before, no one will probably read this, so might as well.

This is a guy who can't respect his own neighbors, so it's no surprise that he can't respect another country's customs and culture.

The thought of Japan associating Americans with Logan fucking Paul is bone chilling.

The fact that this video got 2,000 dislikes is just criminal. There should be zero.

I know I might sound like I'm whining, but this hurts ANYONE trying to go to Japan, either as a tourist, working in Japan, or like you said, Gaijin Goombah, anyone trying to teach in Japan

This is exactly why we have the proverb "When in Rome, do as the Romans do"... A tourist is like a guest in someone's house and as a guest you must respect the owner of the house not ransacking the house... It's a simple common sense... Unless that person have some screw loose in his head...

Filming a dead body in general is very disrespectful. I didn’t like Logan Paul before but now I will never watch or support anything of his.

2.2k dislikes. Found the Logan Paul fans

You are such a great man. What Logan Paul did was undoubtably irresponsible, disrespectful, and unjust. His actions were very inappropriate, rude, and on top of that he has ruined someone's families lives. The person who committed suicide most likely went through a hard time, and I suspect their family most likely feels terrible as well. Logan making light of their death is by far one of the worst things you could EVER do. No matter the country, no matter the place, no matter the person. Making light of someone's death is terrible. His actions were so terrible, it almost makes me ashamed of foreigners in general. He most likely ruined a bunch of natives opinions on foreigners, so much so that no matter what they will think of them are disrespectful and uncultured. It is sad what he has done. Ruining a persons life, especially one who's committed suicide is probably one of the most horrific things he could've done. As someone who has received two suicide notes from friends who've committed suicide, (Rest in Paradise Tamaki and Eliza) they do not commit suicide over something small. Most likely things have been going wrong, and they feel either like everyone would be happier without them, or they just can't suffer any longer. To put light on that makes me ashamed of how terrible a person can be. You Gaijin, you made my day. You've spoken what we all thought and are thinking. I hope this doesn't out a rock in your career and you can keep doing such amazing actions. You are such an amazing person and you deserve the best out of everything. If anyone read this far, have a nice rest of your day/night.

Well thanks logan for destroying the reputation of future tourists and foreigners...

I just read Logan Paul's "apology" on Twitter. What infuriates me the most is that he said in this apology "I didn't do this for the views. I already have views". He and his brother by extension are the embodiment of narcissism on the Internet. They don't care about anything other than their inflated ego. He knows (or at least believes) that this wouldn't kill his career and that drives me up a wall. Suicide is no laughing matter. Disrespecting the people of another country is no laughing matter.

This video makes me hate Logan Paul even more!

The situation itself was a long time ago, but I think revisiting the greater concept every so often, is so important. I cried when you showed all of the lovely memoirs you've collected over the years, all symbolic of the meaningful bonds you've made. It should be all of our goals to create *real* multicultural connections, I have plenty of my own similar treasures! People like Goombah are giving us all the opportunity to make these bonds real, despite those who lack any humility.

I used to think that Logan was the better of the two. Now they're both tied for first on the Worst Humans Alive list.

Logan Paul should honestly be banned from KZfaq for uploading that video,like no joke his fans should understand that he’s not in the right and his apology is bullshit and even if it is genuine it means nothing cause he is just a big mistake on KZfaq

As someone from Singapore... my Japanese friend was hoping to help her family, to see her American husband and family in a better light... until Logan Paul made it sour.

3:53 to 3:57 For anyone curious, there contrasting phrases. Tatemae being public behavior and Honne being true inner feelings.

I’m Japanese, I found out about this in a national article. But your video was what helped me understand the whole picture. I’ve loved your videos for years and I still do, and most of all I respect your passion towards our culture. And even more so after hearing all of your thoughts and experiences. Because of this it makes me much more upset because one idiot has done to you, than what he has done to us. I hope I can consider myself in the same boat as you.

i'm japanese thank you so much for this video we understand guys we love u my English is too bad but i should say thank you

Actually he did this to Italy as well and honestly do it once shame on you do it twice shame on your Channel

みんなさん、ローガンを怒っていたら、外国人がローガンじゃないです。我々は日本の国や文化や人々が尊敬します。日本に住んでいる外国人は毎日頑張っています。あなたたちの優しさを本当にありがとうございます！ translation: Everyone, if you are angry with Logan, the foreigners are not Logan. We respect the country, culture and people of Japan. Foreigners living in Japan are doing their best every day. Thank you so much for your kindness! (translated by me from google translate) yours trully Luigifan123 aka Luigifan245

2018 barely started and it's already getting fucked

The fact people defend him disgusts me. KZfaq has seemingly done nothing to even take him down or anything.

when the US dropped atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, tousands of innocent people died. The great depression didn't help Japan's economy. Also the isolation of 220 years; in my opinion, I think it made the Japanese not know other countries much fearing them, it's a natural fear called the fear of the unknown, the Dutch are and exception since they are the ones who kept in touch with Japan during it's isolation. So my theory is that the fear of the unknown and the fear of history replaying is getting in the way of them trusting us foreigners. Jake Paul isnt helping with that thin trust. Trust is a thing that is heavy, it's easy to topple, and is hard to build back up, he ISN'T helping us. If Jake Paul is reading this, this thing comes from a 4th grader at Austin Texas. You should be ashamed Jake.

It's okay. You have every right to be angry

That video just made me feel sick to my stomach like how can he just nonchalantly record a person who just took their own lives for likes and views.

I'm not even mad. I'm just disappointed at this point.

Gaijin reminds me of myself, never act like this. It's like dressing up as Hitler in Israel or Germany. Just don't. If I was Logan. I would: 1. do my research 2. the Kimoto thing I would act like a good person 3. Don't do racist things 4.Not be a pure racist bully that has no respect. This could hurt my chance of making my series, CountryStar, Because of the 2 Japanese character, the female likes anime and manga, and the boy, a hard worker but shy. This would look like stereotypes. The girl was meant to represent pop culture, and the boy, the people, who need pravtaticy. This could hurt other things that has Japanese characters, like SATW or countryballs. If did this somewhere else, he might be banned from travel out outside the USA. So my friend, do your research on culture, be respectful, and don't be racist.

I lost his father to suicide, it makes me so happy that so many people hate, shame, and ridicule Logan Paul for what he has done.

I am an American that knows nothing of other cultures. That said I am ENRAGED at how many MILES past the line every one of those vlogs were. Show some RESPECT to other cultures even people in general. (Both of the Paul brothers have been a nuisance in public even in the US) People like the Paul brothers are examples of how american and even human culture has gone downhill

I could imagine how angry you would be at him. He disrespected Japan alot.

I’ve never seen someone that isn’t Japanese demonstrate so much love and respect for Japan. So much passion.

Not even a full day has passed this year.... And somebody's already gone and FUCKED IT UP! I don't normally hold genuine anger towards people.... but I think we can all agree that Logan deserves such anger. As for you, Gaijin... Please don't stop being the awesome dude you are and never stop what you do.

I perfectly understand your anger , I live in Italy and I've watched one of his vlogs where he goes to Venice. It was very disrespectful and he broke the law. Not only that Italians already have a stereotype that all tourists are loud and obnoxious. So yeah, thanks Logan. 😒

I can't stand this!!!! Having the Dead desecrated I'm not an expert on Japanese culture or Asian culture in General But I do take pride in my Heritage as the Nordic, Scotch - Irish, Native American Friggin Smelting Pot of a Human being I am. Having the Dead Desecrated no matter where you are, who you are, or even why you are...... It's just horrible!! I personally named my account "Incarnation_Of_Immortality" because I truly believe that a person will never die unless Who they were & the ideas they had are forgotten!! But this is worse then having their memory forgetten this is pure defacement of someone's entire identity & philosophy! And for everyone who gave "Gaijin Goombah's video" a Dislike! Burning in the bowls of "Hell!!" Wouldn't suffice in the supportment of such an inhuman practice such as that Filth Jake had done.

I know it's late but imagine if Logan Paul did this in North Korea. Have fun~

Logan Paul's actions are irreversible. He disrespected the entire country of Japan. He should not even be allowed to be in Japan. Why would he do it? He, he disrespected the dead, there is no reason to do that. Logan, your actions have made people's lives harder, made the family of the person mourn even more. I hope he even tries to understand what he has done

Even w/o the cultural respect angle, what he did was just wrong on a basic human level. He just trivialized the death of a person who was suffering inside. He made no effort to stop the suicide or report the incident but instead selfishly took out his camera so that he would be the 1st to benefit from the shock value and controversy that his video would stir. That idiot reduced the life of a human being into nothing but click bait. Absolutely disgusting. It's also sad knowing that there are 6M people who got hooked into his scheme, and some of them had the gaul to leave a like. Nobody should like it when there's a dead body on display

I was an exchange student in Mie prefecture in 2007 I know this was months ago, I just recently found your channel. Logan has made my job working with kids harder too. A 10 year old girl I work with saw his video. She has now seen a dead body thanks to him.! And she doesn’t have the maturity to deal with it. I live in New Zealand. That’s how far his reach was.! She has his merchandise! So he can’t tell me he didn’t know kids would watch this! His store sells tshirts in her size. Anyway, I hope for the best with your continuing work with Japanese people. I love japan too

I don’t know how people still watch that guy.

His channel should be taken down permanently for this, but it won't be. My heart is shattered. There are no words to express the shame I feel knowing that he as someone who is famous, represents myself and my friends and family as Americans. My uncle, who visits Japan often, offered to take me with him when he goes next to visit Kiyomizu-dera. I still want to go but now I just feel so embarrassed. I've never seen a single one of Logan Paul's videos and now I'm going to go over to his channel, only in order to block him.

logan paul literally had everything handed to him in Japan while this man had to start from ground level to earn the respect. And you know what is the crazy part, logan paul will still get away with this due to his large social media following.

I understand where your coming from. I live in a state that was once a great nation in my eyes. (Hawaii) However, just as you’ve said about foreigners in Japan, it’s the same here. As a local we treat foreigners differently least until they do things as Logan has done in Japan 🇯🇵. For example if he came here and played around a heiau (sacred grounds where body’s were prepared for burial) he’d get a load of hate from us. As a fan of Logan and a Local here in Hawaii I understand you. Because though I am a fan of Logan there are some things I disagree with, when he came to Hawaii he broke a Ukulele which to me I was very emotional about. Since it’s one of the many instruments 🎻 that were brought here and became apart of our culture. Also I point this out now because I’m a Junior at King Kekaulike High School of the class 2019 and I’m writing ✍🏼 my Junior Paper on Logan and this incident. Hearing your view on it is very identical to my view on how one can be passionate about a culture. Not to mention very helpful for my paper. Thank You 🙏🏼

I have never seen him this angry. Good lord. It’s scary. But I understand it.

Never been so pissed at some random dude I don’t even know. I have a large respect for Japanese because my grandma is Japanese. I’m glad she doesn’t watch the news.

I don't understand why he did what he did.... even in america, YOU DO NOT FILM A DEAD BODY! There are so many laws and regulations to that even in america. You respect the dead, not make fun of it. Not film it over and over again to make it look funny. It is not just out of respect for the dead, but respect for those who have been left behind. I watched Destination Truth where they went into those woods looking for ghosts. They may of been hunting for the spirits to see if the stories were true but everything they did there was respectful. They showed the dark seriousness of what those people go through when they choose to commit to suicide. They found a campsite abandoned by someone who came up there to contemplate their death, they found ripped up photos of friends and family that someone left within a small pile of brush. I can understand the poking fun part of some aspects of Japan, some Japanese even seem to poke fun of it themselves, but there is always a limit just as you said Gaijin, and he broke it badly. In my mind, not only should he be banned from Japan, but banned to leave the country because if he does this there, then he may just do it in other countries too.

I want America and japan to have strong relationship in the future but people like logan paul will keep that from happening :(

The worst part is that logan paul did knowing what would happen, just to get his bloody name out there.

Gaijin Goomba, I want to thank you for everything. I'm a Japanese born in America and even if I can't speak for Japanese people in Japan, I want to say Thank you for everything you did for us. You are one of many people who respected, learned and tried to teach many about Japan. You deserve much more respect than Logan. The divine punishment will come for Logan and his group of friends. Japan may be nice, but they do punch hard.

Tourism has simple rules that we learned at elementary school: (1) Be quiet (2) Ask if you don't know (3) Learn (4) Follow the rules (5) Be friends.

This just in another foreigner was caught harassing Japan in Loganpaul-level abuse. JohnnySomali is the culprit. BEWARE

I saw this in my recommended and I had to watch it again. I'm Spanish and I find the Japanese culture pretty fascinating. I don't actively study that culture, but I'm interested in learning more about it. So when I saw you, someone that dedicated years to try and make Japanese people accept foreigners, getting angry and frustrated, I understood why. I don't know if someone is gonna see this comment, as this is a relatively old video, but if someone do, please be respectful to other cultures if you go to other countries, and respect the people in those countries.

Considering Logan Paul is barely respected here in America, seeing what he's done in Japan infuriates me as well. Keep on showing that Foreigners aren't all jackasses!

This is good for a non-westernized response. The cultural aspect of this can easily be lost in the outrage over what he did. It also deepens the picture, his entire Japan series was a farce, not just the disrespect from the forest. Also I learned something from this with how strict photo policy is

I know I'm late to this and it's in 2019 but even still Logan's act is inexcusable, you've helped so many people learn about the beautiful Country that is japan by not just doing anime or gaming your helping to educate over 500 thousand people about the history and facts and it seems Logan Paul just chucked it out of the window and I know it's painful to see time and dedicated effort editing, filming your videos then to just be kind of discriminated by Logan Paul. It's excruciating really. And I've been studying hiragana and Japanese to visit Japan and even hopefully live there, and I've learned from you a lot. People should really share your videos and your channel to educate more people on Japan!I am really thankful for you educating me!ありがとうございます.

I feel you. I lived in Africa for all my life. I also drives me crazy when people don't understand culture. I feel you

I'm Japanese living Tokyo and I've watched Logan's Japan vlogs. In all of them , He is annoying Japanese pepople in the street😓 and this Logan's whole sucide forest situtation, it just makes me think this is why some Japanese are not used to foreigners here yet..😓 He has to respect the culture here. I hope he can change😓

can we make a petition to ban Logan and Jake Paul from KZfaq for good?

he did set us back when I see things like this I get a shiver down my spine I watch your channel to learn and I want to learn the language and culture and people like you goombah have inspired me to teach others about culture thx for showing me this and the effect

I have friends in Japan that stopped trusting me beacuse of logan and this video actualy helped me regain There trust

I thought respecting the dead was a universal thing upon all cultures, this is sickening....

To the people who are defending Logan, saying he did nothing wrong, that his action didn't effect anyone, you need to see this video

When you go to a foreign country you do not represent yourself, your representing your country and culture lets hope something like this never happens again.

Why would anyone do what Logan did anyway? I'm an Australian and often we and Americans get stereotyped a lot. Logan is just adding fire to that stereotype .

I sometimes wish this guy was my history teacher

Not only did Logan's video disgrace the people of Japan, but it also disgraced those who WANT TO GO TO JAPAN BECAUSE IT WAS OUR LIFE'S DREAM TO SIMPLY VISIT THE COUNTRY FOR AT LEAST ONE DAMN DAY. And from these circumstances, my dream will most likely never come true.

This video and this channel are so highly underrated... Mad respect for your outspokenness and blunt honesty

Over the past few months I've been watching you I've learned so much. You've inspired me, to not only learn about Japan and Japanese culture, but to research many cultures. Even know I'm late watching this video, but it still makes cry when I hear what he did. I'm glad you don't focus on him in this video, I'm glad I get to learn more about your experiences in Japan. I hope one day to go there and not only have my own experiences but just to see everything you've talked about. I wish this never happened, it's just a horrible, it reflects badly not just on us being American but on other foreigners to. Japan is a beautiful place, I really want to visit some day.

This reply will likely go unnoticed, but I don't care... As a student who is learning about Japan through no official classes or textbooks, just through what reliable sources i can find (your channel is one of them (ありがとうございます)) it has been a real struggle to learn about something that i'm truly interested in. Through learning about this other culture, which has blow my mind time and time again and also learning about my own origin culture (mainly how difficult a language English is...), i have expanded my shallow point of view to a point were I can start to understand a little bit about anything I see around me. Japan taught me similar things that you mentioned in this video; respect, patience, calmness/tranquility, I was and still plan on trying for the JET program, and then someone comes along to ruin it for all of us. I refuse to start piecing together his mind in that moment, but their is one rule/saying that should be respected; 'When in Rome, Do as the Romans Do' If you cant respect the culture and people there, if you cant abide by their rules in their home, you don't have anything to say.

Hot damn. He didn't swear once. This is either a whole new level of pure anger or GG is just that chill. Either way, glad I'm a subscriber.

I just have to say that I support you 100% respect is one thing I've learned from you, from my parents, from my teachers, friends, and even strangers. You look like you need a internet hug *hugs*

I’m Japanese. I’m happy to know that many people think about the video of Japanese Suicide Forest. Actually in Japan, this is not a big news so many Japanese don’t know of this video. Anyway thank you 🙏

I wonder what happens if Logan Paul comes to germany. Maybe he goes to the Reichstag and looks for Hitler there, or does the Nazi salute (wich is illegal to perform in public) in front of the Brandenburger Tor.

Damn man, never ever seen you this angry, but I do understand you

Agree gaijin goombah. You have all of us behind you I want to go to Japan and your video helped me understand Japan better

From many of the interviews I've seen about this, many of the Japanese citizens that were spoken to still thought Americans were friendly and polite people. I just hope Logan hasn't completely soiled their view of us since so many Americans admire and respect Japanese culture.
