Japanese Citizens Launch ‘Wanted’ List for Nuisance Streamers!

by

During his visit to Japan, live streamer Ice Poseidon ended up being included in a list of troublesome broadcasters, which was compiled by local citizens.

Ice Poseidon’s journey in Japan has sparked similarities to Johnny Somali, who previously faced legal action and charges for hindering a Japanese business while live-streaming… not to mention enduring fierce backlash from the local community due to his provocative statements.

At the moment, Somali is set for a trial in South Korea, yet he has pledged to resume his turbulent livestreams back in Japan. However, Japanese citizens are making efforts to stop this before it happens.

In a Kick broadcast in February 2025, streamer Ice Poseidon noticed that Somali was included in a list of sought-after content creators along with individuals such as Abz, Slightlyhomeless, and even Ice Poseidon himself.

Poseidon displayed a roster labeled ‘Bullying Japanese Residents’ along with ‘Streamers to Kick Out’ and their identities for all to see.

He appeared not particularly concerned about the post, playfully suggesting that the person who made it selected “chance” and rather unfavorable pictures of him and the other broadcasters.

The individual who compiled the list goes by the username ‘yamuzikorisha’ and is a Japanese national. They were among those who watched Ice Poseidon and similar content creators while they resided in Japan.

In February 2025, Ice and other American streaming platforms have established a presence in Japan. While OTK member Mizkif is garnering positive attention for his heartwarming content, Poseidon is facing criticism due to his behavior towards local residents.

On one occasion, Poseidon advised a woman to disrespect the Yakuza using English, whereas in another scenario, he and his companion engaged in friendly sparring, inadvertently breaching social norms, on a public bus – considered highly impolite in Japanese customs.

Additionally, there have been other reported occurrences involving Japanese Kick streamers, like the instance when Abz hurled ice at a taxi driver’s vehicle.
