I know the title might be a bit harsh. But I think Japan had enough of these foreigners 😫

They're not "creators" of any kind. They are grifters who wouldn't get away with this behaviour in their own countries. They should be treated with the same contempt as they treat others.

Your title and the video are absolutely true and on point. Every foreigner who respects and likes Japan agrees with you. Those public nuisance streamers should be banned from entering Japan. The peaceful Japanese Lifestyle shouldn´t be interrupted like that. Thank you for your amazing content 🙏

Japan is a great place to travel as a foreigner, and a large part of that is the general kindness of Japanese people. To see that kindness abused like these guys have is really infuriating.

I'm really sorry Japan has to deal with these people. I really love Japan, and just spent 3 weeks vacation in southern Japan back in September. I have nothing but respect for the Japanese people, and I really hope that was the experience I conveyed when I was there. I hope to be able to live and work in Japan at some point just for a short period of time, so I can get to experience that side of Japan as well. Thank you Asagi for your always excellent content, and please continue to share it with us in the future.❤

You don't go to a country, then make fun of it's people for your amusement! You go to their country, you respect their laws and you respect their people! Thanks for bringing it up Asagi! People like that need to learn respect...... especially towards Japanese people!

I'm from America, and I'm trying to learn Japanese and learn more about Japanese culture. I want to visit Japan someday and to see content like what those content creators did sickens me and angers me to no end. I love your content, thank you. It really helps

One of the worst thing a person can do is abuse someone's good nature. And when I was in Japan back in May, everyone was super nice and kind -- it made me want to be a better person (I like to match the energy of the people around me). When you are a guest in another country, I was taught to be on your best behavior; it's the guest's responsibility.

I heard a foreigner from iceland punched a taxi driver in Japan and didn't pay. And Japan, apparently, is easing on rules for foreign residents from what I've heard. This only entices these people to slowly bring out their behavior and culture no problem.

Very sorry to see this happening in a country as wonderful as Japan. As a Nepalese currently in US I want to let all the Japanese people know that most of the people outside Japan don't look down upon Japan. We do not feel Japanese people are inferior to anyone, rather feel encouraged and inspired by their resilient nature toward adversities like WWII and natural calamities. I for one have the utmost respect for the country and it's people for helping shape my childhood with anime. Even though I've never visited Japan it has always been my top destination to visit and I'm sure there are many others who have Japan on their bucket list.

The disrespect these people show other is unbelievable, I hope the law makes examples out of them so it discourages other people following in their foot steps

日本に住んでしっかりしている外国の方の気持ちを理解してくれまして誠にありがとうございます。日本の文化を愛している外国人としては非常に恥ずかしく思います。 この数人の迷惑の方の影響で様々なところが厳しくなっております。 この調子で様々な場所、体験などを楽しめなくなりますため、非常に悲しくに思います。 日本人の優しさを利用しわざと迷惑を行う方はしっかり罰を受けるべきです。 色々考えましたが、これという解決方法はなかなか見つかりませんでしたが、この問題を解決するためできることがあれば喜んでちからになりたいです。

As a guy from 🇩🇰 Denmark who have not visited Japan yet. I’m really disgusted yet so angry and sad about idiots like Johnny Somali and Fidias causing trouble and huge stupidity in Japan. You just don’t disrespect the people, the culture and the country you’re visiting to. That’ll make some foreigners look bad in general, not only in Japan but anywhere also. And good video by the way. Love and respect from (🇩🇰) Denmark. Peace! ✌️

As a foreigner, I think I speak for the vast majority of us in that we do not claim these people.

As a foreigner, especially with that Logan Paul crap, I honestly feel embarrassed hearing about "pranksters" streaming and being nuisances in places like Japan, Thailand, Vietnam etc... Because it also paints the rest of us that genuinely want to travel to those places in a bad light... (Though I dislike Logan Paul solely due to him being a straight up fool)

Oh god. Johnny Somali. He needs to be held accountable from social media.

It’s like looking at a beautiful painting, then throwing paint on it. It does no good for anything or anybody. You guys are doing your part. I applaud you

My younger brother, six feet tall and blond hair spent two years in Japan, learned the language. He brought home his love for the people. He died a few years ago but I credit my affection for you all in part to him. Peace.

Well just speaking from my part of the world here in Chicago, the people I interact with both in person or online either don't know much about Japan, or like my wife and I really love Japanese people! It is so refreshing to see the respect you have for others. When I visited a few years ago, I was very impressed by how friendly and helpful Japanese people were, even in high tourist areas. I hope to visit again some day! (Oh - and you have the best music in the world right now!)

Something I find very interesting is that these 2 people that you're talking about in your video that's how most people act in the United States and people might say something about it but over all it's accepted. But a person like myself I normally keep to myself and don't bother people and that's normally Seen as not okay in the United States but when I was in Japan for quite a while I was very much accepted because I wasn't being announced a nuisance and getting in the way.

When I was in Tokyo recently, I did everything I could to be a good foreigner: I picked up any trash I saw on the ground and carried it until I found a place to throw it away properly. When I saw extremely elderly people trying to cross the street I walked with them until they were safely out of traffic, and I offered to carry heavy things when people seemed to need help like carrying a woman's bicycle up the stairs. I gave omiyage (snacks) to random people, and especially to staff members where I would normally give a monetary tip in America. On the trains, I always stood up and gave my seat to women or children who were left without a place to sit. When I wanted to eat or drink, I stopped somewhere out of traffic to do so and never ate or drank on the trains. I didn't wear cologne of strong smelling body spray, and I was quiet on the trains and stepped out of shops to conduct a phone call. Unfortunately, I never bothered to record myself to put it on KZfaq whenever I was kind and courteous 🤔.

I recently visited Japan, and absolutly love the people, culture and country. In every respect, I made a point of being as polite as possible and read the air. KZfaqrs that come in like the two mentioned in your video should not be allowed back, when visiting someone elses home or country, be as polite and follow the rules, and remember this is the Japanese peoples home, so be respectful. I only hope appropriate action will be followed up with both of them. In every interaction with I had in the country, was a cherished memory and Japan is truely unique and has so much to be proud for.

It makes me so angry that those clowns can disrespect Japan like that! I love Japan and I would cherish every moment of being there when i go.

Thank you for commenting on those of us living in Japan. I've been living here for going on 9 years, and it's really rage-inducing to see these streamers coming to Japan as tourists, causing lots of trouble, and giving foreigners in general a bad name. I just want a quiet and peaceful life, and don't want to cause trouble for those around me and I hate to think that people will see this and consider that that's possibly what I'm doing in Japan, etc.

Please don't judge us all by these kinds of people. I understand that it doesn't help with the perception of foreigners or tourists visiting Japan. But most of us are not like this. I myself have been watching many videis on Japan and the culture and how to behave and respect the people and culture of Japan

I think you both stated and covered everything honestly! it is truly a shame that a few can mess it up for all!

Man its people like this that make me worried about visiting Japan. I still have yet to come to Japan (that's likely happening the year after next) but people like these streamers make me afraid that japan will ban foreigners from visiting. So the lesson here is even if you are traveling treat others with respect or else.

Your comment about how, "this would not happen in China" is 100% correct, and reveals much about both the cowardice of these trashy individuals, and more importantly, the beautiful culture of harmonious trust within Japanese society. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and may Japan forever keep their culture unique to the world ❤

The Japanese tend to be very polite and sometimes overly so, and this works against them when dealing with this type of westerner, since they would get kicked in the behind in our countries if these guys did this, but in Japan they can take advantage of their politeness to make videos about how shocked or confused Japanese people are by the clown's actions because they can use their politeness as "content" for youtube views.

20-25 years ago British people discovered Estern Europe. They came, to my country (Lithuania) saw a low prices, polite people, and started to behave like pigs: drinking evrywhere, being loud, arrogant and even pissing on our Parliament's walls! Thinking that in case of trouble they can solve any problem whith money. But when some get arrested... others received punches in their face... and magicaly probems stoped. Today we still have many tourists from west, but no more local complaints. Ačiū. Arigatou.

These people are the absolute worst. I hate what the world has become after this social media mess. The disrespect is so aggravating. Also-you made an interesting point about this sort of lingering sense of inferiority after losing the war. It kind of makes me sad to hear that because Japan was such a strong & formidable opponent in battle. Fierce & unrelenting all the way through. That should never be forgotten-especially by those that go there & bully people for stream views.

It's like if I invite someone to my house and they proceed to insult me in my own home and trash the place. That they would be told to leave would be the most polite outcome of that. It does feel like these specific guys are puling these stunts because they're visiting Japan and think they can get away with it. In America, it's not always the case. I recently heard about a prankster KZfaqr in America who livestreamed himself harassing random people at a mall and got shot for it (he survived). I'm not sure how likely it is that I'll ever visit Japan, due to the cost of traveling, but as someone who'd like to come one day, this kind of stuff really pisses me off.

I couldn't agree with you more! I am British, and when I see Westerners (albeit only a small minority) disrespecting Japan and the Japanese people, and treating the country like their own personal theme park... It makes my blood boil! I LOVE so much about Japan, and I learn new things to love about it every day. I am planning a trip in the Spring and I honesty cannot wait. I don't pretend to be an expert, and although I am doing my best to learn, I am sure to make mistakes while I am there... but I certainly wont disrespect anyone, or take advantage of another culture for my own amusement.. I want to try to be as Japanese as a white, western, bearded and blue eyed, kind of Viking looking guy can be.. in that I want to experience Japan and it's culture, and in so doing be an ambassador. It is only a small minority of idiots that do these things, but it reflects badly on the rest of us. I will strive to be a better example. I also kind of feel that those stupid mario kart races around Tokyo aren't really helping either. I can't recall the word for it right now, but I believe there is Japanese concept of not bothering others.. As in, everyone has their own tasks to do, they're all important and all contribute, so don't needlessly get in the way of others.. Well, the company running that mario kart thing, along with these foreign criminals, seemingly missed that lesson. Japan isn't perfect, it has it's own problems. However, it does seem as though they managed to avoid quite a few problems that we in the West have, purely as an artefact of their cultural values.. Westerners would do well to learn from that, not contaminate it.

Unfortunately few weeks ago in Tokio I didn't feel the extreme kindness I experienced five years ago. I felt many of them are pretty much fed up with foreigners/tourists. I only felt that in Tokio though.

Fantastic video!!! I am so happy that you are standing up for your people, your culture, and your family. I am a Social Anthropologist from the United States and I love to visit Japan and South Korea, just to walk the streets and eat in family owned restaurants down an ally. I eat only the local cuisine, attempt to speak the language, and make a good effort to abide by the honorifics. My least favorite attraction in Japan is the Sky Tree, because it attracts very rude American, Canadian and British tourists, whose behavior sickens me. On one occasion I spent more than an hour helping the locals clean up Kamakura beach after rude foreigners trashed it. I am especially conscious of the many Buddhist Temples and Shinto Shrines. Tourists need to understand that while such sites are beautiful, they are spiritually active, and we should practice some restraint when talking and taking photos. My advise to foreigners; it isn't your country. You are allowed to exit the airport because of the kindness of the nationals. It is their home, their culture, their life. You have no stake in it. If you can't respect the people there, don't visit. Stay home and treat your own neighbors rudely.

Hahaha …. Johnny Somali tried to prank a Yakuza construction site , ( he f*cked around and found out )…

I often watch videos about tourists that Japan does not like. "Car enthusiast" never makes that list, so I think I would do okay. Watching these kinds of videos explained that everyone must be quiet while on a train, not doing so really does annoy the locals.

I hear ya, Asagi. These KZfaqrs that are assholes on purpose, I've never liked that. Of course, this was going on long before the internet. Stunts and practical jokes were done on TV in the past. To get people to watch for ratings. Content like yours is what I like from Japan. And Yuka and Lemi and Emi and Daniel and Yuka and Cathy Cat!

Don't worry, we've had enough of them too! Johnny Somali does NOT represent the rest of us who are black and want to experience Japan the legal way.

Unfortunately social media and KZfaq/Twitch/Kick has all helped push these guys to do bad things. I think there should be stricter rules about filming things over there. Maybe even a ban of streaming inside restaurants and other public shops.

The fact that these content-creators (too strong a name…) punk foreigners spike up this kind of trend is both disturbing and distressing. I have studied Japan for over ten years and TRUST has always been a vital aspect in harboring a relationship with the people and culture. I’m finally thinking seriously about returning to Japan only this time for a couple years. I just want to make a good impact while I’m there and if I saw something like this unfold, people getting harassed, I would think through the best approach with self-control and self-conduct. But even then…I have to understand how people want to be helped, and how I would be perceived. It’s a lot to think critically about.

I was in Osaka in 1995-1996. Beautiful city. It’s a shame those foreigners don’t show respect and admiration for Japan and it’s culture. I did not meet a rude Japanese person the whole time I was there and received a smile and laugh when I used my very bad Japanese.

I visited Japan in 2018, loved it. Rented a bicycle and rode around Tokyo for hours, what a clean and beautiful place. Japanese were extremely polite and way more civilized than people in New York where I live. Long Island where I live is dirty because people throw cigarettes and fast food garbage bags straight out their car window. In Japan people wait till others exit the train completely before they enter, good luck getting people to not behave like stampeding animals here. Can't blame you for feeling the way you do about foreigners who behave poorly, I totally agree with you.

Johnnie Somali is an embarrassment to most of America. He is in need of some tough love. Where better to get it than in a Japanese prison? Surely America would pay for the cost of his incarceration..🙏🏻

Agree 👍 I’m not Japanese but I want Japan will be Japan free from the criminals

Asagi-san I agree with every point you & Justin made, especially the one about the guilt of the viewers that these cretins have. These YoiTube criminals harassing people are bullies and bullies always need an audience. Their audience should share the guilt for their crimes. I also like what your baby said: brief and to the point! 👋🏼🇨🇦

As a South Korean, one thing I love about Japan is their conservative. They know how to protect their culture very well. And they oppose immigration. Keep it up, Asagi. ❤

I love Japan! I love the culture, the people, and oh do I love the music! I am ashamed of this Western behavior and I always encourage people that I know to be more respectful of other countries cultures and more enthusiastic about learning what makes them special. Thank you for your insight and your understanding for those of us that are honored by our love and respect for one another.

I don't think you seem salty, and I agree with both of you. I would also venture to say that the people who act like that and the people who donate to them are precisely most vacationers are trying to get away from... Thank you for making and sharing your videos!

Hilarious title 🤣🤣🤣 Second video of yours I am watching but I am seated!

I hope the japanese people know that some youtubers are very respectful. Some are showing us the beautiful places in Japan or how to show good manners - for example saying "ありがとうございます" and not only "ありがとう". I was in Japan in september and it was wonderful.

Dear Asagi, it is not just Japan. It is in the whole world like this. So to all reading this, here is the Golden Rule. "If you visit a foreign country, then BEHAVE!!!" You are a guest there, and your behavior reflects back on your entire country! You must think yourselves as ambassadors, just without all the rights and privileges. And if you cannot behave, then I hope you get deported as "Persona Non Grata".

great video asagi! All your points are valid. get em outta there. No one should have to deal with their BS

I don't really think that this topic needs to be addressed at all. These are a handfull of crazy people who should be punished according to their misbehaviour. The countries where they come from also see them as crazy and awful people. It's not like that's a trend or so. They do not represent anything but maybe the degeneracy of the modern generation. Nothing else.

I'm sorry for what they've been doing over there. The one (that Johnny guy) is over here as an Ethiopian refugee. It's disgusting he'd then go abroad, insult our allies and friends and also ourselves as we opened a door to offer him a peaceful life and he chose to act like that and give us all bad names. He's got a reckoning coming when he does come back, and he'll not be very happy when it comes.

Wow!!! If these people are going to be mean twards people from a different country than them, they defenently should be banned from that country (the country they are visiting)

Japan should be very restrictive to foreigners in general. They should not give in to international pressure to let migrants into their country, either as that would permanently change the culture like it has in Europe Edit: 2:00 You shouldn't feel guilty of being called racist if you are calling out bad behavior.

When I first went to Japan to teach English and study Japanese culture there wasn't many foreigners and foreigners were very respectful.

I don't get how these folks can just not be riddled with shame and embarrassment. This is how the world knows them. Their behavior will follow them through their lives.

from an american: trust us, don't let them in.

To be honest I agree with the name of this video. Japan is my dream country to go to, I love their history, culture, language, and literature. I am kind of worried about going now just because people like this give foreigners a bad name. I loved the video!

I totally agree with you Asagi. I’m half Japanese and have been fortunate to spend many summer breaks with my family in the Tokyo area. It’s upsetting to think that these bad actors could be harassing my family (or harassing anyone). Thank you for making this post.

I agree with you totally. I want to visit Japan. Your food, your Culture, your history. It's a shame that these idiots are a bad representation of foreigners..

I disagree. They should go to Singapore.

Thank you Asagi chan for saying what I wanted to say about this 'Meiwaku Gaikokujin(foreigners who cause troubles in Japan) 💦Once I saw someone foreigner skateboarding on the train(he moved so fast, I couldn't stop him). I was very upset about him taking the advantage of quiet passengers.😔 By the way, I love you speaking Japanese😊👍💕

As an American who loves Japan, I completely agree. A lot of us have been saying around the same things regarding foreigners from the West(mainly). I think those like Johnny Somali and other nuisances should be banned. I hope y’all have a wonderful and blessed week.

This is why my mom told me to say I'm Mexican instead of American 😂😢

i always dream of going to Japan someday and trying all the cool things it has to offer but because of bad foreigners there i might have a hard time...

If I ever saw one of them doing this while visiting, id intervene and stop them 🤷.

As a mixed Japanese-American living in Hawaii who is interested in my own culture and the country of Japan, this irritates me too. At the end of the day, even though I’m a Japanese descendant, I am ultimately a foreigner(gaijin) and outsider to the culture. When I visit and learn about the things my parents and grandparents taught me, it is interesting and helps me to appreciate my heritage. But if I get categorized with the other foreigners doing bad things and causing trouble, they will also see me as bad because I am NOT from Japan originally. I want to continue traveling there and meeting people and hopefully live there briefly but this just gets harder when these content creators do stupid things for views and attention. It is already difficult to learn about my culture and heritage as an American and many others like me simply don’t care because being Japanese is as foreign to them as someone from Europe, etc. This makes it harder for them to learn about this side of their identity now and in the future and further distances them which is unfortunate. Arigato Asagi for sharing a Japanese person’s perspective that I can understand and relate to. I enjoy your videos and I agree with the advice you give about dating Japanese women because I’ve learned a lot of that through my own personal experience dating and interacting with them too. I hope things change for the better and relations between Japanese and foreigners continues to improve and everyone can be happy! Please continue to do what you do and help everyone and I will continue following, liking & subscribing! 😊

Imagine if an American said “these foreigners in America should go home” 💀 it’d be WWIII

Even though Japanese people are usually quiet and pacific, Johhny Somali got assaulted lots of times in live stream on the streets of Japan by Japanese people. Imagine how rude and disrespectful used to be to be assaulted by Japanese on the streets. Also, he was a streamer from a streaming plataform called "Kick" which is famous for that: there's absolute no control from the plataform owners and all the streamers who had been banned from Twitch always ends there. Also, what happens in China, why those kind of streamers never do those stuff in there? Is it because Chinese people are really violent and aggressive towards this people or is it just the government and the laws, who are so oppressive and strict with people with this rude and terrible behavior?

The only reason I haven't visited Japan yet is because I want to prepare as much as possible, so I don't look like a fool in front of the locals. These guys don't have that problem. It's kind of annoying.

You are 100% right! Going around pissing people off and making them feel uncomfortable is very rude. Showing respect when you travel is important.

When I, an American, traveled to Japan a couple of times, along with neighboring nations a few years back, I arrived with the words "don't make waves" in my head. I had a pleasant time and retain many fond memories.

What is really troubling is that Japan is already xenophobic even to respectful foreigners / diaspora folks born in Japan. They’re gonna bare the brunt and experience even more racism & mistrust by the Japanese public. Japanese people will think “oh, all non Japanese people are like this” when this is not true. Those were just assholes & any person - Japanese or not Japanese - dislikes disrespectful people like that.

Most KZfaqrs or Americans aren’t like Logan or Jake Paul, just like most Japanese women aren’t like anime women from Nautro or One Piece.

I've been living, working and studying out here in Saitama for a bit over a year now. Honestly I love this country and have had nothing but positive experiences. I have been to Japan before multiple times as a tourist previously to living out here but it starts with giving respect then getting respect. You and channels like yours that share insight on Japanese culture along with advice are valuable so even though it is frustrating to see reaction channels get clicks don't lose your motivation.

ぼくアメリカに住んでいるハーフなので、夏になると2ヶ月帰るの。（母は日本で生まれ育った）父はアメリカで生まれ育った白人なんだけど日本に一緒に帰るとこんなことしません。本当にありえない。この悪い外人を見ると自分が住んでる国がはずかしい。（ごめん、単語あんまり知らないので言葉の使い方間違いてるかもしれません）

I think theses cases are blown massively out of proportions. There were roughly 17 million visitors to Japan in 2023, if only 1% are idiots and of those again 1% cause trouble you still have 1,700 cases, enough to report every day. Yet we see only a couple of faces day after day. These are the same people that cause trouble in their own country. Police should just react quicker to such cases. I mean, they record and publicize their own crimes, why can they continue that for so long? For me that is the real problem. There will always be troublemakers in any group of people that is large enough.

Great video. You're breif explanation of Japanese people feeling inferior and intimidated is new to me. And Justin added some good thoughts. When I travel abroad I do a little research about what to wear and how to act. I find that I am treated less as a tourist and more as a person. Then I can get the most natural travel experience possible because experiencing different cultures is a big draw for me. When I travel, if I can spot an American by looking at them across the streat, I feel embarrassed. And a bit angry as the people they come into contact may judge me later.

Asagi, I have absolutely no idea what you're saying in Japanese, but I love listeing to you say it.😃

Everyone agrees! Japan has a wonderful culture and there are some 'bad faith' foreigners that wish only to break it down. Just like some people try to do in the west, Australia my Country and others too. Japan is in a better position to stop this destructive thing. So you have full support as far as I can see 😃

Japan was better when foreigners couldn't get in, lol, but I'm a self hating American

I appreciate Japanese sentiment towards outsiders. I really wish my country was more like this (I'm from Canada). We have so many ignorant, entitled immigrants it makes me sick.

As an American, I love and respect Japanese culture, and I also hope to visit there one day before I die. Also, as an American, I am ashamed that there are "Americans" who come to Japan and cause trouble for content (Johnny Somali, for example). Right now, I am just glad he is off the streets, and Japanese authorities are cracking down on these IRL streamers and KZfaqrs who are in the same category as him. As a part-time content creator myself, I would not resort to something like this for content. I make sure that my content is for everyone to enjoy as long as it doesn't disturb other people around me. Thank you for understanding and for your patience because you and Japan as a whole have had to put up with this for months now. You all deserve better. I hope you have a blessed day 🙏.

Your title is absolute right. In the video you point out your statements which I agree totally. As a person from the Netherlands this type of behaviour foreign people creating content is unacceptable. They should not only banned from Japan but also getting huge fine as a result of their consequences. If people go to Japan they should follow the rules and respect them. Respecting the rules is respecting the people and culture. Asagi you did a great job for explaining and showing your viewpoint on this unacceptable behaviour of foreign people. Keep up the good work.

Question is, why is it only Americans behaving like that?

❤

What's bad is that most of these assholes are not even American, yet the Japanese think all foreigners are American. It makes us look bad. Even Johnny Somali is not an American. He is a Somali, and his real name is Ramsey Khalid Ismael. Not sure where the other dudes in this video are from, but they definitely have accents that are not American. Americans have a lot of respect for the Japanese, probably more than any other nationality does.

I'm Canadian and I find it very very disrespectful how these morons act. It makes it harder for regular respectful ppl to enjoy their trips. I know if someone came from another country to Canada and made viral videos trolling our ppl it would not last long. Ppl here are not so patient and he would probably get a terrible beat down in every single city or town he stepped foot in. Japan seems so friendly and welcoming, I absolutely love Japan and what it stands for. I love the food and culture. Hopefully they go away and stay away, I feel absolutely terrible for you guys!!

2nd

As a Swiss we share more or less the same value like Japan and you're absolutelly right about those guys.

I wish Japanese media would make a short campaign showcasing just how much Western people HATE these nuisance streamers causing trouble in countries like Japan. I am not even an American, but having lived a long time in Japan, people like J. Somali and Logan Paul make me, and everyone who I have talked to about them, so mad on how they are causing trouble and making all Westerners look really bad in Japan. Here in Finland, we also have a very similar quiet and normally non-confrontional society, however, if people are being outrageously an ass and causing trouble to innocent people, every single bystanding men (80% of whom have military training) will intervene and make them fall in line and start behaving or there is a possibility of major ass-whooping coming in Just to reiterate, never ever be a d**k in public in Finland, especially at night time, it can be very dangerous for your health I really wish these nuisance streamers would have tried to do their harassment on a group they didn't realize was part of the Yakuza. I am actually quite shocked the Yakuza hasn't done anything to these guys, since they are operating in their turf, and they are often seen as the people who "sort out" trouble makers who get out of hand

Japan would be completely justified at this point if they started requiring Western tourists to have a guide chaperoning them while in the country, or be part of an approved tour group. Maybe with an exception for those who can demonstrate at least some level of Japanese language proficiency. Believe me, we in America aren't too fond of Johnny Somali either. There's been some talk of criminalizing his type of behavior under US law, so in addition to whatever the Japanese justice system meted out, anyone trying this in the future would face Federal charges in the US on their return.

You speak in Japanese in your videos now?? Yeahhhh I can practice listening and check if I understand with the subtitles. And at the same time enjoy your content. Nice

Hi! This is the first time I comment on your videos I think. I’m a casual viewer of your channel. I am Swedish so I would be a foreigner in your country. I’ve been fascinated by Japan for a long time and would love to go there one day. But I would never dream of disrespecting and upsetting anyone like these guys do! I do not know all aspects of Japanese culture and it might happen that I step on someone’s toe by mistake, but never in the way these guys do on purpose. You’re absolutely right in saying you don’t welcome this behavior and disrespect from foreigners minding your own business in the streets and every day life. I’m not easily offended and some kind of honest criticism I think anyone should be able to hear and take but this mockery is on a completely other level. I’m with you here.

Nobody likes those influencers/pranksters even here in America, it just sucks when they go to other countries and make all of us look bad

Asagi-san, you have explained everything well. It is not “harsh”, it is simply the truth. “Dumb-ass creators” made me laugh, but it is a perfect example of what these “creators” are doing. They have taken advantage of Japanese people’s kindness and paid the price. I don’t know if you have seen that one guy that filmed himself going into a WOMEN ONLY train for attention, but that must have been scary for the women there. I have visited Japan earlier this year and plan to go back again very soon, hoping to have as great of an experience as I did last time, but this time a little more knowledge of the culture and language lol. As a foreigner, I and many others do not claim these people. I’m sorry many of your fellow people had to deal with this and hope it was a learning moment for foreigners to be respectful, because I and many others are well aware of how strict Japanese laws are, so as they always say “You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes”. Clout is one hell of a drug.

I heard that Johnny Somali got 3 years prison for trespassing 😂
