Cooking expert Ryuji announced that he has temporarily changed the title of a video he posted on his official YouTube channel, “Cooking Expert Ryuji’s Buzz Recipes.” On the 22nd, Ryuji uploaded a collaborative video with author Ototake Hirotada. The video shows Ototake cooking with him, who has congenital limb deficiencies, and says, “I have just one request. The title was “Handless Ototake treated me to his home-cooked meal.” Let’s go with that,” suggested Ototake. Ryuji said, “Is that okay? I’m the one who’s going to get flamed. “It puts my heart at ease when Ototake says that,” he said. In response to this, the title was changed to “Inhuman: We got the handless Ototake to cook a home-cooked meal”, and Ryuji explained on x, “I told him not to do it because it would definitely cause an uproar, but he insisted on using this title, so we went for it.” However, the title was later changed, and now reads, “A great episode: We asked Ototake to cook and his knife skills were amazing.” When asked why, Ryuji explained in the comments section of the video, “I wanted to keep the title the same, but there were so many people who hit dislike or report without even looking at the content of the video, so I changed it temporarily. Ototake-san has given his consent.” A fan commented, “I thought so. It’s a bit disappointing.” “I saw the content and thought the title was fine, but some people are offended just by looking at the title, so I guess it can’t be helped.” “Before I saw it, I thought, ’Ryuuji, what a mess!’ I would also give it a low rating if it was just the thumbnail. But after watching the video and learning the content, I can give it a thumbs up.”
