Definitely a good plug for your Japanese lessons 😂 you’re hilarious man. You have a great sense of humor!
I’m finally taking Japanese seriously after 4 years of on and off studying. I’m hoping to move to Japan in the far future so I hope I’m fluent by then.
Thanks for the compliment 😅
Good luck with your Japanese studies, I’m excited for you to move here!
Your skippable ad analogy totally works btw
Thanks for these videos! We’re looking to move to Japan and came across your channel. You’ve got 2 new subscribers 🎉Keep up the great work! You’re hilarious.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I'm glad my videos have been somewhat useful for you, good luck on your move to Japan!
Wish I could keep my job online and get a visa to live in Japan.
Loved my holiday over there at least.
Yup, definitely something worth considering! 😉
When my weeb mind was younger, ofc I was thinking that it would be so cool being in Japan and live there. Now that I'm older tho...my mental health wouldn't probably handle it. I have a dream off visiting Japan and finally experience the country that I've been fan of ever since I was a kid. Then I don't have to worry way too many things. I've heard someone commenting that Japan is fun when you are a tourist, but miserable if you live there (as a foreigner). Idk is it true but what I'm hearing online, people are now more critical about it, before it felt like these influencers moving to Japan were sugar coating everything and didn't tell the down sides of things.
Thanks for commenting this, you mentioned some good points!
I also hear often that Japan is good to visit as a tourist, but actually living and working here is a completely different story, especially for foreigners.
But as a Japanese person who has lived in many other countries, I now say I think Japan is the best place to live compared to the places I was in, but of course this is my home country. Stay tuned and hopefully I can share more about true life in Japan!
@@taiseikikuta haha, got your videos as recommended so curiosity won me over lol. I'm kinda same with my own country (Finland) that it's the best place to live. Obviously we have many issues too and I should take more notice of it, tho worrying myself too much isn't good for me :")
I'm not able to visit Japan in the near future, so I will watch Japanese life/travel videos instead, it makes me excited and give more ideas what to do etc when the opportunity finally arrives ^^ I will stay tuned!
the editing is funny af keep doing these vids
Thanks man, I’ll keep them coming!
Love love love your sense of humor💜💜💜
Thanks for watching and your nice comment!
Great video quality! Didnt think you were new to CZcams
Thanks for your comment! The truth is, I do have some experience with video production, that’s why 😅
the editing is sick xD 🔥
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy it, because it takes hours lol
Yo, this video is underrated ❤
Thank you so much for watching and your feedback!!
Great video. The most important universally applicable phrase to know immediately after moving to Japan: 大丈夫です。
Honestly so true haha - I literally use the phrase several dozens of times a day 😂
Wow, subscribed. I am your 100th subscriber. :D
Thank you so much!!! I will make sure to remember you for the future!! 🤗

Thanks so much for your comment!
Nice one! 🎉🤌🔥
Thanks! 🔥

I am planning to use the "I am rich" visa to go to Japan. If you can show savings of 30 million yen then you can have a 6 month-1 year visa
Oh I didn’t know about this one! Is this a recent addition? And what’s the name of it? I hope it’s not “I’m rich visa” 😂
Thanks for the info!

@@zimzam9166if you are under 30 years old, a working holiday visa is much easier to apply for and obtain (you don't need to be rich)
Ah, I just noticed something...your English: you said you were going to college in the UK, and yet you seem to speak in an American English. were you living in North America at some point? 😅Speaking of the value of the ¥, when I was born it was still fixed at ¥360 to $1USD. We left Japan for the first time in 1974 when it was still ¥308 to the dollar, and when we returned in 1981, it was free floating at ¥221 to the dollar. by the time Dad retired and we left Japan for America in 1993, it was within spitting distance of ¥100 to the dollar. counting inflation, where when I was born a box of Kleenex was a dime and by 1993 it was about 89 cents per box, it makes it that much harder to make ends meet unless you get regular pay raises or increases in cost of living allowance (COLA). still, being that Dad was paid in USD, when I was a kid I always had nice clothes (my mom and aunt got me a real silk kimono at 伊勢丹 for 七五三), whereas by the time I was in college there were all sorts of money problems. while the Japanese economy seemed to get stronger and stronger until the Bubble burst, I felt like our family was going from being one of the elite tenants living in a judge's house in 石神井 to one of the "poor Americans" who could only afford to live in Japan at the behest of the US government 😓
My son is working in Ebara Corporation as a system engineer , he is trying to fit in the society .
Interesting, I’m sure he will fit in, especially if he finds people like himself as I mentioned!
@@taiseikikutabut why go to another country just to talk to you own kind. Isn't that being racist to Japanese people?
you got 1 more sub . keep going
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
1:59 Where can I get your Japanese lesson
Hi, if you’re interested, message me on insta and we can sort something out!
Im still moving
I’m not stopping you - Go for it! 😆
The funny thing is I get along more with Japanese who are less international minded.
Interesting, everyone has different personalities of course 😉
Thanks for watching till the end!
Your theory about growing up in another country affecting your appearance isn't as farfetched as you may think. Different cultures have different diets and thus different nutrition, and nutrition can affect your appearance. It can have a rather large impact on certain things such as your teeth and jaw. You do seem to have nice straight teeth which is less common in Japan. I imagine the main reason is probably your mannerisms. Your subtle actions probably don't indicate a Japanese native and humans are actually very good at picking up on this.
Super interesting, thanks for this! I never really thought about nutrition and diet potentially affecting appearance, but it makes sense!! And your point on mannerisms I definitely agree with - growing up in an international society comes with its various “side effects”, which I take positively of course 👍
So uuuhh where them Japanese lessons at?
hook me up with the lessons please 🙏
Hi, if you’re legitimately interested, I’d say follow me on insta and message me. Anyways thanks for watching!
If I had 1 yen Everytime he uses the fart sound, I could move to Japan 😅
You made me laugh with this comment!! 🤣
Now you make me want to keep using the sound, maybe some different variations? You’ll be a millionaire soon! 😆
i mean all the cons pale in comparison to the main con you have to deal with in America.... all the woke shit!
I can’t accurately respond to this but I’ve heard a lot about this recently 😭
All I’ll say is that I’ve never been to the US and I’d love to visit one time!
I'm guessing this is a joke, right?
@@taiseikikuta the outdoors scene is my favorite aspect of the country, specfically mountain hiking. The west side of america is just jampacked with so many mountains its nuts.
@@bringbackdislikes3195 its not, more than half the country is tired and has been waiting a long time for America to return to its conservative roots.
@@notafortnitegamerBoth parties are stupid .
