I've mentioned this before, but it's not that much better in context. That mayoboi that Phil was laughing at for wearing Japanese clothes and playing a Japanese woodwind instrument is one of the few people on Earth who can play that particular instrument on his level. Him, his teacher (another white guy) and about 3 dozen stodgy old Japanese boomers from what I remember. Of course, who's easier for the guys at Sucker Punch to fly to E3 for a few days? Some middle-aged white dude who from what I remember is American so it's not even that far away for him? Or some old stodgy Japanese dudes who most likely can't even speak a lick of English?
In any case, Phil was making fun of a guy who has dedicated his life to completely master playing multiple musical instruments, one of which being the shakuhachi, just because he was dressed like a medieval Japanese peasant for the show.
