Left really love pulling the 'my friend is a [insert signifier] and they agree with me so I'm right!'
Oh boy is this funny, to get the Japanese to so solidly reject it, this is even bigger than Egypt and that Netflix Cleopatra shitshow. This is the left thinking they can just rewrite history like they have in the West for years against people who REALLY care about it.
Also something to note about this, I can't fully verify as stopped playing after AC Black Flag, but people have brought up this is the first time a character you play in the series is an 'ACTUAL' historical character so they broke a big taboo as your character is usually a fictional character that interacts with or near historical characters. Seems they forgot this in their push to have a Black samurai on the cover art.

That shit was always so damn retarded. Even normies occasionally parrot that line. If one genuinely has a friend of a certain race, chances are they don't unduly hate that race. But leftoids define opposition to things like BLM as "you despise black people and want them genocided" or some shit. Only someone going full bloodhound mode trying to sniff out nanograms of "racism" thinks that someone with black friends is meaningfully racist against them.
I’ve felt the same way about someone who has spent their life becoming an expert in Civil War era history and you’d be shocked how much the left has manipulated that history to what they want it to be.
Ugh, that trailer is cringe. These people have no fucking shame.
Epic setting, and they fuck it up like this. Starts alright, nice scenario, nice voiceover. Then she starts beating up warriors with weird lightning flashes, gets shoved once, and ends up all beat up. Then...black dude. Whooo!
Also, the idea that a black man can serve undercover in Japan on the streets is beyond laughable. Oh, yeah, you blend...
The only good thing I can say for what the trailer shows, aside from (almost certainly wasted) potential, is it's cool you see both main characters fighting in the same scene. I doubt it will even translate into gameplay, but it's a cool thought, playing through the same scenario and timeline with two different characters, helping each other out.
Overall, this just makes me sad. It's such a cool concept, such cool potential...all wasted. I haven't even played AC in years...and I'm still angry.
I hope this slap in the face crashes and burns as a gigantic financial failure. Fuck them.
Part of the story of Yasuke IRL (well allergy, I don't think he existed as the evidence is shaky) is Nobunaga thought someone was fucking with him by covering a man in soot so made him bathe for hours, yeah doesn't seem like a guy who would blend in now does it?
One of the many reasons YouTube took away the dislike feature was that the Owners knew their leftist/woke agenda would be extremely unpopular to the actual consumers.
Rigging reviews on sites like Rotten Tomatoes to convince everyone what a masterpiece Black Panther was just because we were all stuck in black worship or get BLMed times was just the beginning
A below average capeshit movie is one of the most critically acclaimed movies of all time. Probably the greatest indictment of the professional critic class.
The Amy Schumer Netflix debacle was the other big nail in the coffin for public consumer feedback versus leftism. Now we just have steam reviews.
This YTer pisses me off although, admittedly, it's mostly aesthetically, and it's less then a lot of other people piss me off. There are people out there with much worse audio presentation, and that matters more, but still. Why is this a thing? I wish he'd just either not have any avatar, or show his actual face. Male vtubers are even more cringe than female vtubers, sorry. But he seems to be doing his thing, and people enjoy it, so good for him. Legitimately.
Anyway, rant aside, on to the content...
Westerner: "Japanese people must be angry..."
Japanese person: "Wow, it's Yasuke! How Cool!"
One of my least favorite (although it's a long fucking list) argument styles, and this Twitter weirdo can get fucked. You don't just get to make up a scenario, and then pretend it's real, and that it debunks your opponent's argument.
Also, I find it a supremely ironic accusation given the Japanese soy-intake, but it's hilarious how they made the fictional Japanese person sound...totally Western-soy.
"Wow, it's Yasuke! How Cool!" Like, gag me with a spoon, ew.
Seriously, the image that conjures is your classic fat American neckbeard, not someone from Japan. Consoooooom. Seriously, if one of the wojaks isn't conjured into your mind when you read "Wow, it's Yasuke! How Cool!" well...good, you've probably spent less time on the internet than many of us here. Maybe you even touch grass. But for me, yeah, that's wojak territory.
No need to invoke wojak to describe that performative enthusiasm.
We eastern europeans have a history of it at a gun point and we can tell just as well.
Finding one person who believes something doesn’t mean anything. For starters, trolls and contrarians exist. More importantly, an isolated few doesn’t equal a meaningful plurality. You can find Japanese people who hate Japan and want Japanese culture to be utterly destroyed and replaced. How do you think they feel about a disruptive black main character in an historical video game with a traditional Japanese setting?
There’s really no point in engaging with people before firmly establishing first order principles. If you’re debating someone whose central premise is the total annihilation of your people, your culture, and your nation, then you are wasting your time. You should be focusing on destroying them in kind.
The insane deviance it would take to even consider watching a male vtuber is a bigger red flag than almost anything I've ever seen and I've watched both seasons of Made in Abyss.
The “racist outrage” lol. You’re damn right, it’s racist as hell to blackwash the history of Japanese people.
I can just imagine these game journalist scum get the same shit eating grin every time they type their usual go-to buzzwords.
Also I wonder why all these people treat Asians as “white adjacent” is it because they can build and maintain a successful society without chimping out and destroying and pillaging everything in their sights?

based Ubisoft agreeing that yasuke is fictional
Remember when the anti-racist bullshit really spun up one of the things the left hammered on was claiming "But I have a black friend" wasn't enough?
Funny how fast things change.
“I am black” wasn’t enough either. Nothing matters but power.
That shit was always so damn retarded. Even normies occasionally parrot that line. If one genuinely has a friend of a certain race, chances are they don't unduly hate that race.

Right at this moment the ratio has gotten more damning with 3.1k likes and 30k dislikes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZN-kKoGevo

Nice
just an fyi: dislike numbers generated by Return YouTube Dislike are bunk. their algorithm is basically nonsense.
that's not to say I think Japanese viewers support this or anything like that, just that you shouldn't be taking these numbers as meaningful data.
For a slight second I misread OP's title as "Nigga-san's Creed" and thought thats polite of him. Had a good giggle out of that.
hmmm i should have named it that.

Leftists are civilization destroyers. Hence they hate any race that can create a functioning civilization
...I'm not even a content creator and that like/dislike ratio stung...
