How Does Ubisoft Keep Screwing Up This Bad?
Ubisoft really needs a Japan coach.
Just some normal Japanese person who can tell them when they are stepping on yet another cultural landmine. Not the Clown World consultant and Sweet Baby alum Kazuma Hashimoto. Just a nomal person who would have steered you away from another PR disaster like the one above.
The ninja chick is sitting on top of a Torri gate. A Torri gate is kind of a symbolic structure that marks the boundary between the mundane and supernatural worlds. They are usually found in front of Shinto shrines. The Kami are supposed to pass through them.
Notice the one Kuniochi-chan is sitting on top of has been blown in half? Yeah, kind of hard to miss and the already pissed-off Japanese.
You see there is only one Torii gate like that in Japan. This one:
The One-Legged Torii is located in Nagasaki.
Do you want to guess how it got that way?
You guessed right. Fat Man created it when that atom bomb was dropped on the city in 1945. So once again the entire country of Japan is pissed off and insulted by Ubisoft. How do they do it. Sticking one foot in your mouth is no great achievement but Ubisoft always manages to stick the other one in there with it.
