Just how OORP is...

[Jinx]

from a roleplaying point of view - it makes sense that kusari does not like the BHG. if kusari is indeed something like ancient japan - the warriors have a high status and are most of all honourbound. BHG instead are mercenaries without any sense of honour. they fight for cash - and not for a greater good.

a true kusari warrior would not swap the sides he fights on for some cash. so BHG are even less than foreign soldiers that fight for kusari alone ( but even those would never become real warriors ). BHGs could be seen fighting for kusari in one battle - just to be seen fighting for bretonia in the next. while bretonia won t have a problem with that behaviour, kusari will certainly have.

i would not go as far as to describe it as hatred though. its just a dislike. - and to prevent hatred, kusari makes it clear that BHGs are not too welcome in their space in general. - if you don t deal with them and try to avoid them, the situation cannot escalate to open hostilities.

the guildcore of the BHG may be considered differently though, cause the core does not fight for cash ( they get their share from all the independent BHGs ) but for something greater. kusari may consider the guildcore much more trustworthy and give them a higher status than the common bounty hunter. - but the guildcore does not have any interest in kusari / bretonia as it seems. they are more interested in exploring and researching the far away nomad space.
