What I REALLY Think About Japanese Youtubers Reacting To My Videos
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 27. 01. 2021
- A few years ago I made a video called 12 Things Not Do in Japan. In the last few months dozens of Japanese CZcamsrs have reacted to it. By popular request, here's my thoughts on it all, as well as my reaction to their reaction of my reaction.
Special thanks to George Japan for taking part!

NOTIFICATION SQUAD: Here we go then. This is it folks. The pinnacle of CZcams content. A British guy reacting to a Japanese guy reacting to a British guy! I'm not sure how we're ever going to top this. Though I hate to admit it, it was rather fun. Could this be the beginning of a REACT series?! I wouldn't count on it.
A special thanks to George Japan for taking part! I think he did a great job adding his personal experiences and cultural insights in his reaction video and it's worth a watch.

Nice

Glad I clicked fast
We have to go deeper.
The madlad actually did it.
absolute chad move tbh
Oh hey, it's the OG man of culture.
What a madlad
I would like this post, but it already has the optimal number of likes. Nice.
i heard u talk about it with him in the Abroad in Japan podcast
Hi Chris! Iâm really honored to take part in your video! Thank you so muchđââïž
Btw, When you said âThatâs not how the UK worksâ , I diedđ
And I love the French guyđ€Ł
Thank you again, Chris Englandđ
The man himself
Can't wait for the collaboration between you and Chris in the future
that cameo was badass dude.
đđđ
You seem like a pretty chill and humble guy
I like how one guy was like, "Nah, it's fine. Don't worry about this." And then the lady was like, "Yes. This is terrible. Never do this."
I think it varies on what area you're in. If you're near food stalls/places where you literally can't go and sit to eat like a busy shopping district, look around and see if others are also eating.
Generally, don't buy something from a convience store and then walk while eating.
They call it 'reading the air' but non Japanese struggle with this concept.
â@@itsumotanoshimi We do? đ How'd you know? I seriously don't know if you're japanese, practicing ignorance without bothering about knowledge, or if you're a pick me weeaboo.
I also don't know which would be worse.
â@@lethfuil I know because I've been teaching Japanese language and Culture to foreigners for over 35 years. DOH...How is that foot in mouth disease?
The biggest issue in social interaction and communication in Japan for foreigners is the inability to 'read the air'. Foreigners are always getting into trouble because of this and generally it is their lack of education and understanding of the Japanese culture.
Every culture has a way of 'reading the air' and unless you understand that culture very well...anyone will struggle with 'reading the air'. This is common logical knowledge everywhere in the world, it is hard to comprehend and understand anything when you do not have an education of that subject...
Weebs struggle with the concept, so they indulge further into cultural habits and over elaborate and enhance that habit or feature as they can't grasp the ability to 'read the air', so they compensate.
To attack me without just cause and reason just shows me you are an uneducated, disrespectful person that is one of those weebs that can't 'read the air'.
@@foxjm470 No I am not trying to say that and did not say that...
Don't put words in my mouth and go back and read the third paragraph.
I did not place any value on any culture high or low as this would be discrimination against the people to rate them as a lower culture than other cultures.
I said 'Every culture...' there is 'reading the air/room' it is part of all cultures and to understand how to 'read the air' is having knowledge of the culture...
...I actually was in awe of your reportage on Fukushima. Beyond the beautiful filming and editing and the respectful storytelling, it conveyed how much you truly love the Japanese people. And you managed all that without any of the typical TV production means. The video has definitely showcased your talent as a documentarist. I'll be happy to see more of that (even on the BBC...). Take care!
So agreed, it was brilliant and powerful.
I came here to say the same. Cheers.
I think the issue really is that when it comes to on demand media, if faced with a choice between a documentary on a disaster that is likely filled with sad, if uplifting, stories or a video that is going to be goofy and cheerful... most people will probably prefer the 5 minute "x to (not)do in y" since it's short and digestible and fun over the documentary about one of the biggest nuclear disasters in the world. Why depress yourself with such a thing when you could get a quick and cheap laugh out of a British man unwittingly offend people around him with cheerful Brazilian music.
By day he's abroad in japan, but by night he's Chris England, the queen's 37th best agent

Lmao đ
Lmaooo
who needs enemies when you got friends like Ryotoro
It's genuinely interesting to see how different people react to the video. Each person has their own experiences and you've chosen a good range of age and French people.
So... now... I react to this? đ€
Yes Norm you should
Yep Norm ... welcome to the Twilight Zone đ±
Noo! You're to good to be doing react videos like everyone else! Lol. This was a one time Chris moment. I prefer to see your new original videos đ
Please do. ahahahahah
In 480p please...
We all just want to see Natsuki reacting to your videos. Why can't we have that???
It's always cool when you see that a youtuber you like also watches another youtuber you like, even more when they're so early to the video! Your MTB videos got me through the start of quarantine when all I wanted to do was go out into nature!
Who is that?
Hanae natsuki?
I'd pay to watch him react to "Ryotaro's Japan"
@@AbroadinJapan i had no idea Ryotaro had a channel
Here a year later to say that Yuya and Mrs Eats channels are good channels as well. Both the creators do very well videos.
Been following you on CZcams for few years, love your originality and humor. I do really think your editing and videography skills have gone up a lot over the years to almost a professional level. Keep up the good work đȘ big fan!
instead of blowing your nose, you should try inhaling the tissue all the way through your nasal cavities. This way you don't have to worry about finding a trash can for the tissue. It will just disintegrate into your bloodstream.
Happened to me once (fell asleep with a cotton in my nose because of nosebleed), i woke up with a terrible migraine and it's only 5h later, in the plane back to Switzerland that I realized i had a thing stuck in my head... I blew my nose and I could feel the freaking cotton go down my nostril... It was disgusting but god did it feel satisfying.
LMAO

I think your inside Fukoshima video was amazing. You approached the subject with care and respect, and the way you talked to survivors was so genuine and personable. As much as I am enjoying the current journey across Japan, I still think your Fukoshima video was the best.
I was subscribed to both of you guys so this made my entire day! I love it so much! Definitely one of my favorite videos. You guys should definitely collaborate more!
"Please be kind to me when I come to your country"
"No George thats not how the UK works." This I felt. 1000% true, loved it.

That was a "OOF-level" roast
I spent a year from 2006-2007 in Japan as an exchange student in Nara and wet to an all girls school in Osaka. I say these 12 things are true! And I have never seen someone walk and eat. Never.
Love your honesty and humour, mate. Hope to see more of your content.
Chris can I react to you reacting to this reaction?
I need this
Iâd consider it an insult if you didnât
@@AbroadinJapan I have the blessings of Family Mart Fried Chicken King.
Stop it!!! Till CZcams did not collapse into reaction singularity!
My two favorite youtubers! I can't believe it!
I have a teacher called Chris England, he's American...
You should call him "Mr. Worldwide" instead
Must tell your teacher to change his second name to Chris Washington đlamo

Damn man, every video I see by you I just appreciate more and more. Your humour, creativity, self deprecating humour, wit, and overall really well written and produces content..thank you. Motivated me to get into studying and learning more about Japan. You offer a lot of well thought out points in your video, without rehashing other peopleâs points. Thanks for being awesome and approaching things in a positive light :)
love your attitude and humour. Quality and style will win, so keep going, please
You be careful.

George in Japan has some great videos. As someone studying Japanese who hopes to go to Japan one day, I love your videos too. Very helpful.
Chris, reaction videos are a great way to share your personality and I would watch just for that. Can't say the same for 99% of other youtubers out there. All your commentary here was hilarious.
"Chris England" is actually quite a nice sounding name.
Chris England, Abroad in the UK
definitely got to be a Chris Englund out there somewhere, you got Robert Englund, who played Freddie Krueger in the Nightmare on Elm Street series after all.
Dave Kawaii
Name already taken.
true, it sounds authentic
Having George Japan make a cameo in this was so meta I HAD to like.
I wonder how that conversation went. Mr. Japan can you please react to my video, about you reacting to my video ?
George Japan is a cool guy. Not as cool as Chris of course.
@Abu Dabu do you need a hug
I watched George Japans reaction and thats how i started watching you again. Its like advertisment for your channel.
In germany the reaction game is strong, but its a win ein for everyone.
Definitely went to go watch the Fukushima video after this one finished. I, for one, appreciate your production values and the fact that your videos are never click-baity wastes of bandwidth.
When George actually replied made me chuckle.
I loved that!
Yeah they actually collabed!
Tbh i didnt expect that!
I lost my shit at that part
I loved it when George said: "Please be kind to me" and Chris said: "Sorry George that is not how the UK works". I love Chris' sense of humor ... or maybe that was just brutal honesty đ
Chris, I've been subscribed to your channel for a few years now, and your 'What not to do...', vid was the first one I saw. I loved it for a number of reasons, including you production values. Your Fukushima doco was incredible. Keep filming in 4k, keep developing your formula, and don't concern yourself with the noise. Your a true British CZcams gangsta! Much respect.
Wow, Chris, I love your channel more and more, I laugh a lot, thank you. Starting to find your channel to be one of my favourites.
âNo George, thatâs not how the UK worksâ đđ€Ł
That was my favorite line in the video XD
We speak only in sarcasm and insults ~
Never been to the UK for long, but meeting people from there online definitely does it justice
Don't feel bad Chris, every Japanese CZcamsr is contractually obligated to react to Filthy Frank and Uncle Roger, plus one additional creator of their choice. It's an honor that they picked you!
Is always priceless when they watch content made by Georgie.
True, I even tried to recommend them to watch Calebcity videos. Most of them don't even finish the "People who think they can speak Japanese just because they watch anime" series.
This dude is really good. If he does his own edits, then he's a top notch CZcamsr. And he's a great actor as well. And I like the parts where he makes his videos like they're one of those informative like BBC specials about Japan. I'd love to visit Japan. Probably not live there but going is on my bucket list
One time I requested and hugged a Japanese person who is an idol to me.
I was not the only one there who hugged him, but this memory still makes me feel ashamed and keeps me awake at night, even after several years it happened. I just decided that I am better left never ever hugging any humans in my entire life.
I don't think this is an issue, if they have an idol status in foreign countries they are also aware of their habbits, and she they might be uncomfortable but you asked they very much had a chance to deny you.
Like george said if they come to us they are also trying to fit in.
Not gonna lie, I'd click on a more things not to do in Japan. Then again, I click on all of your videos.
I loved your videos
He should do a video about 12 things not to do in the UK, directed towards Japanese viewers. In English though, so they get a good taste of the general British attitude to foreign languages. :P
Oh did you change your profile pic it's very subtle but I noticed the difference.

Hi chris just wanna let you know your videos are one of the best ive seen in general, like for real the quality comedy, you personality, content just everything you just make everything about your videos interesting every time so thank you for that i think you deserve way more subs â€ïž
"Yeah. To be honest, Chris, your face looks better in 480p anyway."
OMG đđ
When he popped up I choked on the water I was drinking cause I was laughing so hard!
He looks better insulting anyway đ
Now this, right here, is some quality English ribbing.
I died.
I FUCKING LOST IT HAHAHAHAHA
I feel like the important thing to note is that Chris has experienced the stark contrast of life in the UK vs living in Japan. People in Japan reacting might disagree, but life in Japan may be all theyâve ever known. In comparison to life in the UK there might very well be a much greater emphasis on not blowing your nose in public or eating while walking that Chris noticed.
Yeah I came here to say this if it wasn't already said.
A perfect example is like when they start saying how plenty of people walk while eating, there's a special term for it, and there's like half a dozen places in the country where people sometimes do it without being judged and young people even drink Starbucks while walking.
To someone outside of Japan, that perspective is already culture-shock on its own. This guy just demonstrated the textbook definition of the exception that PROVES THE RULE.
Like I appreciate when Japanese CZcamsrs can step out of their own shoes and say things like "oh is that even more acceptable in other places in other places in the world?" rather than the closed-minded view that within their worldview there's already some walking while eating going on in Japan, so this Englishman doesn't know anything.
Well stated... đđđđ
And No VOLCANO stuck in my head still, thanks Chris..
As a Brit, I'm more embarrassed when I CAN'T blow my nose in public. Someone actually had a pop at me for it once.
I think we find the incessant sniffles more rude and inconsiderate than the actual act of blowing the nose once or twice. Doesn't that piss Japanese people off?
I was also thinking people might be more âharshâ towards a foreign person than a native Japanese person who âbreaks the rulesâ . Youâre already under a lot of scrutiny and if you do the âwrong thingâ then someone whoâs already like đ might easily get more annoyed.
It's really easy to miss things about your own culture/language just because it's so natural to you you don't notice it and you may not have compared it to something else before. I used to have a roommate who didn't really speak English, but absolutely insisted to me that in English, our questions ended in a falling tone if there was a 'w' question word in there. I said no way, questions have a rising tone in the end. She made me listen to myself ask me a few questions before I realized she was rightđ
Your videos are great! Very entertaining and have helped me understand a little bit more about Japan. Really appreciate all the work and effort you put into (most of) your videos đ đ
One thing is for sure. I cant think of any youtube channel that makes me laugh so hard. Happy I found your channel the other day cause your an icon! Keep up the great work!

Not intentional but so funny!!!
I want to see a video of you reacting to his crack about Dalmatians dying for your shirt :)
Hope your chin is safe
Lol
Whatâs funny about this is that George was actually incorrect by telling his audience that you were incorrect about the stuff you said on your video. Perhaps itâs because heâs a native and doesnât pay attention to those sort of things, but while I was stationed with the Airforce in Japan, I actually encountered all of those things, I got thrown out of a restaurant because I was not native, I was constantly cursed out and told to stop walking and go sit in a bench or a fight of stairs and not eat while walking, and George saying this isnât true, is a complete lie lol!!! He got tons of replies stating the same thing I just said on his video. In my case it took me about 7 months to be able to read and speak Japanese, and thatâs when I realized what I was doing was against their cultural upbringing, so I changed my ways and lived a super dope 2 years over there, and currently am waiting to finish my inactive contract with the Airforce to relocate back to Japan since I loved every second of living there.
I doubt Japanese people have a good image of foreign soldiers.
Meanwhile Iâm wondering what your favourite tea is?
@@burkles4456 i donât think ANYONE has a good image of foreign soldiers especially if theyâre from america lol

same :'D
Everybody should go watch Crisâs Fukushima video to make him feel better.
Watch it to make yourself feel the feels đđŻđ§đ„șđšđ
And get informed đ€
Already watched it. Very well done and educational, but I can understand how it gets fewer views because YT is often a break from reality where you just want to be entertained.
I'm already making my Reaction video to the Fukushima vis as we speak. YOU CAN'T STOP PROGRESS!
To late been there already as well as anyone with a brain I bet who it not stupid enough to be drawn away by thumbnails with flagrantly fake expressions of shock and red circles and more red circles or red arrows
I watched the Fukushima video when it was published and not just because I subscribe to the channel. I am genuinely interested in content of this type and I actively seek it out on CZcams.
This was hella fun to watch, thanks for the upload mate.
I watched your video first, then I was recommended George Japan's reaction video, and I watched it. Found both of them informative and entertaining. But so far, I've only watched a few of your videos. I would really like to watch your Fukushima documentary. Need to check it out next time.
OMG that Japanese "mmmm" when they don't approve but they're trying to figure out how to spin it politely LOL. Brings back memories of my time in Japan. And Chris's face while mocking George saying "mmm" killed me, bahahahahaha!!!! And for real... if you have to have a set place to eat and drink while walking in Japan, then, really, you can't eat and drink while walking in Japan lol.
The exception confirms the rule.

Your humour never fails to make my dayđđ» and i just love the hard work u put in every single vid.
Bdw, love GEORGE, (new generation of Nihon), too đđ
This was honestly the most enjoyable reaction video I've ever seen.
Your tsunami documentary is one of the finest pieces of cinematography i've seen in a long time.
Agree..
I agree, though it took me a little while to get around to watch it because I felt I had to get into an better mindset first, but now I'm glad I did and Chris' effort is clearly visible
I agree! I was blown away watching the documentary. It clearly showed that it was a passion project.
"George is humble he's barely in the frame of his own video" had me chocking on tea đ It's okay Chris, they're riding on the tail of your success.
Yes I watched both George and Mrs. Eats reaction videos but only after having watched your original video đ Your original video was so goodđ that you've spawned an entire new video genre (RX to Abroad in Japan). You must be proud đ
To be honest, I did find you're channel by watching Japanese people react to your "What Not To Do In Japan" video. I'm honestly grateful to them, because without them, I wouldn't have given your videos a chance and ended up subscribing. :)
Also, after bingeing most of your videos, I now find it hilarious that Ryotaro was one of the reactors.
I'm sure the only reason that Chris's Fukushima documentary didn't get as many views as other videos is that most people use CZcams for light entertainment. The people in the comments who watched it all seem to have been very moved by it. Chris's regular content is always entertaining. That documentary is something special, though, that will stay with you for a long time.
100% agreed. it's a shame he may be inclined not to produce videos like that as often due to the views, but it was such an insightful watch.
I learned a lot after watching that video. There aren't many documentaries that mentions Fukushima as Chris did.
I think it was the title
It is incredible and I'm personally hoping for more such content down the road.
Totally agree I loved that video. It definitely gave me some ideas on where to go when we can travel again. We planned to do a few months travelling Japan. Then the Pandemic happend.
Although just makes us more excited to go back there now.
George is like the most adorable thing ever. "please be kind to me" "No George that's not how the UK works." I almost passed out laughing, but so true Chris. đ

The roasts on this are of epic proportions. Loved every second man, good video!
100% think the Japanese perspective on what not to do in Japan is skewed because it's their country. They don't get looked at like they just crapped in the street if they cross at a red or eat while walking, etc. But foreigners occasionally do because we already stand out and so us not following the standards of politeness sticks out too. Whereas a Japanese not following them just looks like someone not overly concerned with the rules, a foreigner not following them is evidence that we are ignorant or impolite by those who want to judge others. Not all Japanese are so eager to judge foreigners of course, but there are scolds in every society.
yeah cant take foreigner opinion
if you cant take other complain, how do you improve your company,your self, country
I thought the same thing--I bet a local has very different experiences than a foreigner, and probably can get away with more without attracting negative attention. And personally, if I want to know what how I should behave as a foreigner in Japan, I'd probably rather hear from a foreigner in Japan.
It actually works the other way around... Foreigners in Japan often receive the "foreigner pass" whenever they do something stupid or unrespectful.
@@Seeking_Solace I live in Japan... sure, often foreigners get a pass because Japanese are generally tolerant and understand cultural differences. But that is not always the case, and like I said, since Japanese can immediately see you're foreign, some who are less forgiving of faux paus WILL be *more inclined* to judge you. That's why it's important to know what the general expectation is. You can still disregard it as some Japanese occasionally do, but you should do so knowing that you are likely to attract more attention for it and shouldn't expect not to be judged for it. I've gotten the look before and even comments (usually by older Japanese) and the further out of Tokyo you are, the more likely you are to get looks or comments - whether it's because you're not covered up enough or you're being loud on a train.
Every one has their own experience. Full disclosure, Iâm Asian American and blended in physically. When I broke those rules, Iâm embarrassed about it but Japanese strangers wouldnât even care once they know Iâm a foreigner. Itâs not like there is an ethical or righteousness police to arrest you if you break the rules. My obvious foreign friends who were non-Asians would get the stares and reaction but it never became a scene. I asked my Japanese friends and locals about this and they said foreigners are making it a bigger deal than it needs to be. Thatâs why more Japanese are making âReactionâ video to tell Chris itâs not a big deal.
Chris mocking the reaction trend while dressing up as a homeless man is exactly why I love him and his content.
we need more Berry Reaction
What do you mean homeless man ? That was poor Dave, who has been locked up for months and finally let out for a few minutes to help with this video đ
I was literally stopped by multiple vendors at Asakusa from walking off eating my cone ice cream and taiyakis. Was asked to finish eating at the stall itself and dispose of all packaging at the bin provided.
When he started talking about watching a video in 480p, I checked my quality and it was 360p. đ

Lad? More like thad
I really appreciated how succinct you are with with your opinion and your good natured approach to the situation. "CZcams doesn't reward production value, it rewards human nature." I thoroughly enjoy the production value on Natsuki loosing his pants in your "I flew in Japan's most dangerous plane" video.
As a former teacher, I strove to teach that a good critique is different than an opinion. A good critique offers room for growth, regardless of the tone of the opinion. I don't understand the trend of reaction video's either.
Iâve watch the original, Iâve watched Mrs Eats and Georgeâs reaction, and now Iâve watched his reaction to their reaction of his reacting video.
My work here is done.
There was a retweet by Neil Gaiman this week: "I love and enjoy good critical writing, but I do like to remind them every now and then that, while we can do our job without them, they can't do theirs without us."
what does it have to do with this video?
@Mog X yup
In the quote "their job" = making reaction videos and "our job" = making the videos they are reacting too.
Reaction videos are a kind of critical writing.
That Fukushima video was incredible, Iâd honestly love to see more in-depth stuff like that
I totally agree
Agree, maybe it doesn't reflect in the views, but mostly spending time on youtube (even vids of chris) leave me with a sense of "shit I could've done something more productive in this time", unless the vids show in-depth stuff or informative things. Like the Fukushima ep, so yeah, make more like those please :)
Iâd like to see somebody reacting to it.
Me too. Its rare to see videos of that quality on youtube.
The documentary on Fukushima was one of my favorite videos you made at the time I watched it.
Laughed so loud watching this . Your brilliant mate . Love from London
Japanese CZcamsrs: What we think about Abroad in Japan reacting to us reacting to him
It's Kame all the way down.
Abroad in Japan: What I think about Japanese CZcamsrs reacting to me reacting to Japanese CZcamsrs reacting to me.
So this is what it feels like to be in "The Twilight Zone" đ±đ±đ±
It's going to happen XD just give it a week
"Don't bother reacting to a video unless you have an original thought, or point, or perspective"
This is exactly why I'm not a fan of most reaction videos or channels. There are a handful of great videos that give helpful insight / information that's not discussed in the original video, but most end up going "haha that's funny" or "no that's wrong" but they never bother explaining why or adding anything. This doesn't only apply to Japanese react videos but a lot of general reaction videos. I remember seeing one reaction video on my recommended feed where the two people reacting didn't say anything except "wow that's crazy" once while chuckling maybe 2-3 times, then ended with "thanks for watching our reaction". I'm glad it was a short reaction video because it was a waste of time.
That aside, great video as always Chris!
i didnt read the whole thing but amen
You might want to check out Blind Wave. They do the most thought commentary in the reactions of all channels I've watched.
I also feel it's a bit lazy to just take someone else's video they probably spent weeks on just to react without any real input. As Chris stated if you're going to piggyback on someone else's idea at least put a spin on it to make it worthwile...or just make your own video.
I think a reaction video where the watcher doesn't do anything is the most honest kind of reaction video. Most of us IRL would just be sitting there looking bored with maybe the occasional brief chuckle or eyeroll. And shouting or crying always looks so fake.
With music video reactions you can really get away with it if you have the charisma, the only guy I watch often misses big details, but heâs energetic, makes good jokes and always has a positive attitude no matter the genre.
After a few minutes in, I had to pause the video and watch George Japan's reaction video.
After finishing watching that and this video, I got to go watch your 12 things video so I can thumbs-up that video, too?
With your gift of gab, the "I resemble someone in Green Day, just pudgier" looks, the "I wonder what I can stir up in Japan" instinct and research ethics, I think you have found the right button to hit.
Chris: *Ironically reacts to reaction videos*
Also Chris: *Makes an unironically more entertaining reaction video than anyone else*
Right? The editing and curation of amusing moments was so on point!
Rissotoro's reaction is pretty entertaining too, lol.
he actually edits unlike almost all the others
âYour face looks better in 480p anywayâ is probably the best joke on this channel and it isnt even Chrisâ
That is obviously a Brit joke. Chris gave George that joke 100%
I think the japanese are trying to overtly "debunk" what chris has said because they hear how ridiculous it sounds đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
well, this is your first video that recommends watching inside fukushima. and im actually happy to see content like that so... thanks
they didn't roast him so he roasted himself
As a good British person should do. LOL
I like British sarcasm. They put truth to the dark aspects of things whilst making it entertaining.
Brits are good and funny also they good
@@user-ri5oc5rw5b Too bad they have to live in Britain
@@cooldud7071 yes, rain bad
Yeah their country is a shithole where it rains every day and the only beer they get served at the pub is guinness. Can't blame em
Careless memories?
What a highly entertaining video!đ thoroughly enjoyed! AlsoâŠ. I remember watching the original subject mater and loved that as well! Thanks!
Bruh you are hilarious man, I love it. Waiting on covid to finally be over, and head to Japan. So thanks for all the videos and info brother đȘđ
I almost died laughing when Chris said: "How many dalmatians died for that top Sara ?" đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Chris be like "Is no one gonna roast the hell outta me Gordon Ramsey style? Fine I'll do it myself then!"
I honestly loved your Fukushima documentary. It was superbly done.
For these edits alone your are one of the best CZcamsers rn fr
'a fraud in japan: destoryed with words and logic' made me cackle
I think the fact that every Japanese CZcamsr has a different reaction is just proof that Japan is not some totally homogenous unit with ironclad cultural rules of conduct. Even in Japan, everyone's a little different. (I think Chris' list was solid as a general rule of thumb though.)
At the point that theyâre doing CZcams those people are already outside of the âJapanese normâ
6dm Good point haha
@Sir Kyushu I think you're assuming this is an ethnic thing? And not just meaning homogenous in a more general way?
@Sir Kyushu I'd assume other people assume that japan is very collectivist and the people there never really stand out. Like china but with less cardboard skyscrapers.
@@cooldud7071 if you actually look into China though and its people, theyâre not really homogenous
The Fukushima documentary was fantastic. Very well done!
