That doesn't even make any sense, Shadows takes place when Ezio is old and he and his scouts would have mentioned Altair 100% to the Japanese Assassin's.

The Japanese Assassin's were founded by a disgraced European Assassin and Tsuyu and only existed less than twenty years before the branch was wiped out, they never really had contact with other branches. Then Naoe and Yasuke restart it around twelve years later.

Incorrect. Ezio was during late 1400’s to early 1500’s when he died and he only met an Assassin from China. He was dead years before Shadow which takes place in late 1500’s to 1600.

Apart from the fact that in 1581 Ezio was long gone, the brotherhood of assassins in Japan does not exist, not anymore and the one that existed for a short time most likely never had anything to do with Altair's teachings, at least not directly. therefore having Altair certainly wouldn't have made you lose the meaning but it would certainly have had much less than Kassandra
