This man was a big star on a Japanese "reality show" until his big secret came out
This felt like the kind of story that's more interesting and deep than a YouTube short, but also not exactly enough to be main channel content so I thought it was perfect for Patreon.

Let me know what you think.

Whats the game being played?

Your friend's explanation let's me understand those weird idol scandals a bit more, where people have to apologize publicly for very minor offenses or even non-offenses (like having a private romantic/sexual relationship).

I'd say that's a negative human trait in general. You see things that like a lot, all over the world. Some people just feel very envious of others and will do whatever they can to find fault in them so they can feel better about themselves.

It's better when a video shows actual story content and not some video game playing in the background. I know it's done a lot on YouTube stories with games like Subway Surfer, since a lot of people have short attention spans. Anyway, just my opinion. I understand it's just a short Patreon video.

Normally I use walking footage but now I'm experimenting with some gaming footage too. For Patreon vids it's always gonna be more rant-style with less editing, showing just relevant footage when it's relevant

That's crazy that jealously of successful people exists in Japanese society. Even a staunch partisan communist/socialist individual in a western country, like the U.S., will praise the success of art of any media whether the success was culturally and socially and or financially even. The only exception is people like Mr. Rogers or Mr. Beast especially because they are presented as being TOO NICE that it feels suspicious which may or may not be reasonable.

I am actually curious -- why do japanese people watch your videos if you've figured that out? Is it like American Japanese people who don't speak Japanese, people curious about others' perception of their culture/stuff happening, etc.?

japanalysis

Yeah, I think viewing others' perception of their culture is definitely a part of it. In particular this drove popularity of the recent Japanese Meme Map video, there was a Japanese tweet showing my translation of the ultimate virgin guy that kinda went viral
