Imagine being a foreigner in another country and then acting like you have some right to berate your host country for being too anti foreigner. You are a guest there you have no right to complain if they want to kick foreigners out. In one of his videos he admits he's been in Japan for 6 years and yet has no friends there. Maybe that's a sign that he shouldn't be there? https://files.catbox.moe/uwz98i.jpg
At some point, being in a mess of a community because not a reason to police your own community, but to play the victim and call other people names.
Sowell writes in one of his books that racism and anti-semitism had a salutary effect on blacks and Jews, because this forced them to clean up the act of their fellow community members who were misbehaving, rather than disowning responsibility and calling everyone who pointed things out 'racist'.
Well, I hate to break it to him, but making new friends is harder in general as an adult.
I don't know if Pewdiepie managed to make new friends there, but from what I've seen in his videos, he's got a pretty friendly relationship with his neighbours. And how did he and his wife do that? By following Japanese custom and bringing them a gift, introducing themselves to them. He's also said that he's had no problem with people being racist to him and in his experience, if you make sure to follow the unspoken social rules, they will treat you friendly. And Pewds doesn't even speak Japanese all that well.
What are the unspoken social rules? I feel like I should have a better idea of these given how much anime I've watched but shows are a poor substitute for actual cultural knowledge.
Honestly, I was merely quoting (from vague memory) what he said.
I only know a handful things myself and they mainly boil down to general politeness that should be obvious. Like being quiet on public transport, not loitering around where people are walking, using polite speech, when talking to strangers and such. Things that should be the norm here as well, but are a lot more tolerated than over there.
The one thing I know that doesn't really fall under that (and it's oddly specific), is their weird thing about business cards. They are to be offered and received with both hands. Instead of just putting it away the receiver puts it down on the table and even occasionally glances favourably at it, during the meeting. This is because apparently they are viewed as an extension of the other person, so they need to be treated respectfully.
There are so many rules with business cards that it borders on parody when you lay them all out at once. Its actually beyond the famous American Psycho scene, which was an intentional over the top parody.
Japanese social culture is similar to Kanji in a lot of ways. Something almost impenetrably complicated and deep that you need to have been born into it to ever truly understand, otherwise you will spend the rest of your life basically having to be a scholar of it to maintain the usable level of a common man there.
Unspoken rules vary place to place. They're unspoken. Things like proper shoe etiquette when visiting. Not eating while walking. Masking for a cough when you're actually actively sick and not anytime else. Bringing a gift to new neighbors/when moving in (as said above). Use proper dialects and proper honorifics in the proper situations. Speak the language as your primary effort in public. And don't act like a fuckin' weeb.
Basically, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do". They don't make lists of things, they just DO them. In internet dialect terms: lurk moar. Learn by observation the local customs. And if you fall afoul of them, apologize for not being within them.
As it should, it's not the brownies who are making this revisionist miscegenation faggotry with this game and that other one kingdom's something, it's liberal whites. I never understand this hypocrisy, people want Japan to stay japanese, fair, but then want whites to be an exception to living in japan and to be honorary japs, not how it works.

Why would they see a problem with that behaviour when they can't even see the problem as it happens in their own home nations?
He should be mad at Ubisoft for disrespecting Japanese culture so egregiously that the Japanese are turning against western foreigners.
Reversing victim order is classic leftism. Reminds me of the hood ol’ days of Zoe’s DARVO.

His ears are below the eyeline
Make of that as you will
Japan should be for the Japanese, if you're worried about the foreigners first and the Japanese second, you clearly don't have the best intentions.
He’s looking upwards

Yes. And you also lose friends as you get older too
It's easy if you're rich.
Sure, that's probably part of it, but I don't think everybody over there knows he's rich and (semi-)famous.
True I did not consider random Japanese neighbors would know nothing about PewDiePie.
Based if True.
Does he mean foreigner hate or foreigner hate?
It includes white people, if that's what you're asking.
He is asking whether he means "foreigner hating Japan" or "Japanese hating foreigners" because the term "foreigner hate" could mean either.
Ah. Anti-foreigner hate seems straightforward to me - also with an actual reason.

Uh, sounds like it's time to ban the game and forcefully put everyone involved in the development and defense of it through ''sensitivity training''.
That's the standart the Woke imposes onto other people after all.
They're blaming people disliking a game... For the game's existence?
Shouldn't this loser be blaming the FANS of the game and the marketeers?

NOOOOO, STOP LIKING GLORIOUS NIPPON!!! YOU CAN ONLY LIKE SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA AND INDIA NOOOOO!!!
