Felix Kjellberg believes that people should respect the polite nature of Japanese society rather than viewing it as a place where they can get away with poor behavior.

“it is really frustrating cuz like for a lot of people Japan is an escape of this bad behavior that's just done in public a lot of times not saying the whole world is like terrible but you know Japan is generally seen as more polite and therefore people want to protect them”

He claims that many Japanese establishments, particularly in remote areas, exhibit unwelcoming or cold behavior towards foreigners.

“I don't think they'd ever seen a foreign person there before oh it's so remote cuz you had to book it in Japanese through this website but we also went to a restaurant in W and I and it was a yakatori chicken scared restaurant I was like this is going to be great I'm going to eat the whole restauran”
