    LOL. This was pretty funny and disturbing (raw horse meat vending machine). The escalator was hilarious especially when you realize after the camera pulled back that there are 4 steps leading up to it. Indeed only in Japan. Funny stuff Asagi and so glad you are collaborating with other YT'bers. Keep going !!

    I think what she is searching for at 7:04 is the word "originally". I speak English (mostly 🤣) and struggle sometimes to come up with the right word quickly! Great collaboration. More please! Oh, and "mounting girls" meant something entirely different to me also, ha ha! 😏

    *Cathy Cat or Chatty Cat?*
    Do not Deutsche have the reputation for being silent types devoid of emotion? Her English accent sounds as if she learned English from an Irishman, at least some of her vowels production.
    Thanks for the insights Asagi! This was fun to watch, especially learning about the useless escalator. The Nihonjin have a reputation of being practical, efficient people, at least in the USA. Maybe shooting a video debunking that myth might be amusing and entertaining. Certainly, that would fall into a no b.s. Japan theme. It would be fun to see all of the impractical and goofy things Japanese do, which they might not be aware of themselves doing such.

    Nice collab Asagi and Cathy! A lot of thought went into picking out the curiosities and it was very interesting. The horse meat vending machine got to me the most. 😭
    The isolated work spaces and resturaunt booths is fascinating, especially for a more “community minded” culture. Despite community emphasis, it seems like Japanese still value privacy. In the US, it is opposite: very individualist, but privacy isn’t respected hardly at all.
    Looking forward to a mounting girls video. 😆😉

    I don’t think it’s a big deal in America to go to a restaurant by yourself. Like I don’t think anyone else in the restaurant cares. But I do think most people who go by themselves feel awkward.

    Travel Lucky Bags remind me of "Mystery Flights" you could get in Australia. You bought a mystery flight and you didn't know the destination until you got to the airport. I think they did it to fill up empty seats on flights, it was a real lottery. But before I could afford to travel (talking 1990s here).

    3:17 I’ve been to one near the Yokosuka prefecture. I called it Tiger restaurant because all I understood at the time was was the particle “no” and the kanji for tiger. I had a small plate of beef that was marinaded in their sauce with garnishes on the side.
    I knew how long to wait because I’m good at cooking. So, it came out perfectly flavorful. I also caught a man whom I thought to be sumo on a date with a very charming woman(I didn’t ask because one I didn’t know how at the time and two it would have been rude).
    But yeah, I concur that this type of restaurant doesn’t really exists outside of Japan.

    The world's shortest escalator in Kawasaki Moores (just round to corner from me) is that way because of the bubble. They planned proper escalators, started working on them, and then the financial market collapsed. Corners were cut and the world's shortest escalator was the result.

  • @jerometsowinghuen
    @jerometsowinghuen Před 2 lety +1

    The world's shortest escalator? That's pretty surprising and rare to see.
    In Hong Kong, there is a pair of escalators which are also rare to be found, which are operated in counter/anti clockwise, half circle from each side. 💫

    The genderless school uniforms are exactly like what uniforms had evolved to in the 90s in the UK. There's a funny story about the skirts: there's a school with a completely genderless uniform policy with a choice of trousers or skirts. Boys started complaining that they had to wear trousers in summer while girls could stay cool in a skirt, until the one boy realised that they didn't have to wear trousers... The uniform policy only specified what items of uniform must be worn but not by who so a group of boys started wearing the uniform skirt to school to protest at the lack of an option to wear shorts.

  • @amygray9457
    @amygray9457 Před 2 lety

    A little late watching and commenting, but usually people who want to eat by themselves will go in a coffee shop sometimes for hours at a time. Or maybe a bar. I do notice where I live in the states if someone comes into a restaurant by themselves they will usually go to the bar top or a small table on their lunch break. I worked in restaurants for years and unless its for those reasons a lot of people will find it weird if you eat by yourself. I don't really care what other's do, but I personally for this reason feel more comfortable by myself at a coffee shop rather than a restaurant. I also know server's complain if its a single person especially for a long time because they make less money. Sorry long explanation! Also I found the rest of this video really interesting! I really like your collaborations with cathy cat 🙃

    Nice to see you two doing a video together! I watch both of you separately, so it's fun to see you in the same video.
    And yes, it seems like most Japanese women do not like to talk about their personal lives much. Recently, a female musician in a band I really like, announced her marriage and childbirth. And that is literally all she said about it! No details. Of course, her devoted fans want to know if her baby was a boy or a girl, and what name she picked out for her child. It would be nice to see a photo of her baby too. We just want to celebrate with her, we are very happy for her. She did receive lots of love and congratulations on her social media, which was very nice. But it would be nice to know if she had a baby boy or girl. Maybe in the near future, she will tell us a little more.

    Hey there,
    You are doing great stuff
    But
    Listen
    Your people are extremely *Rude* and *Arrogant*
    Specially toward the *Foreigners*
    That's why they never get any kind of attention from others...
    I think you need to think on your *Social Skills* and understanding other *Cultures* rather than introducing your *Peculiar* language...
