    This meme was a lot funnier before the whole Assassin’s Creed debacle. Although it is funny seeing people get mad about it while trying not to sound racist lol.

    Or maybe the character is historically accurate, and yall are just being racist…

      This meme was created way before Assassin’s Creed added Yasuke to their game. Which sucks because this meme was pretty funny before people got racist.

      And also Ubisoft isn’t American, they’re a French company. So instead of Guile we should have Manon.

          Her Color 2 for that outfit is trans flag colors. Idk if it was confirmed that she’s trans, but if she is, she’s not the first trans character in Street Fighter.

            Poison is only trans in America lmao. She’s def not the greatest representation since the designer of Final Fight made her trans in NA because he thought americans would have a problem with men beating up a woman which is yikes for many reasons

        Yasuke was a retainer. And Retainers were loyal and trusted individuals who served a lord, such as a daimyo or the shogun, in various capacities, especially in military matters.

        In other words, a warrior. And Samurai are the warrior caste.

        They don’t want foreigners to stretch things out too much.

                  Yes I know too, Japanese people are the most racist and xenophobic culture in the world. Thank God they’re getting less and less, soon 80% of them will be over 70.

                  The real reason is that Japanese men are scared of the competition. It’s a biological fact that most aren’t well endowed enough to pleasure women, so they need to keep Japanese women from experiencing sex with non-Japanese men.

                  It’s all penis envy at the end of the day.
