The Dutch dude was mighty impressive. Dude's been barely a year in Japan and already speaks that well while having good Dutch AND English at just 18 years old. He's good!
Pretty much every single person in Netherlands speaks perfect english. I have never even met a Dutch person that doesn't... They learn it in school just as much as their native language.
*HIS ACCENT* was very interesting - he sounded mostly neutral English, a bit colloquial English, a bit Australian, and a tiny bit Japanese accented English.
@@elrey8876 He doesn't sound Australian to me at all.
His accent isn't super Dutch either, is it? My former BIL was Dutch. This guy sounds mildly Scottish?
@@elrey8876yes there are a few words where there’s an Australian inflection like when he says Tokyo I guess it’s the Dutch version of English that gets into that South African/Australian accent sometimes.
I'm white and my wife is Japanese. We raised two wonderful kids in Japan. Son felt very Japanese so he stayed in Japan. Daughter learned English really well in Australia and is now preparing for medical school in the U.S. Both speak fluent English and Japanese, which was a requirement for me as a father.
do you speak fluent japanese ?
Excellent job opening doors to success by instilling the value and opportunities that come with learning and education!
Great Job!!
@@LoganRaven Yes, I'm so weird, I got 日本語能力試験1級 *twice*. But I sadly forgot how to write most of the kanji I once could write, since computers and cell phones took over.
I like how you really listen to them and do not interrupt, something most people need to learn ❤
She might be carrying recessive genes from her dad. So if she finds another half Japanese guy and they have a 1 in 4 chance of having a blonde blue eyed half asian child.
They don't like outsiders, when will you guys finally understand this? They don't want anyone who is not Japanese, just visit and leave.
He's a journalist, it's his job. He's not going to get any information during the interview if he does all the talking.
This channel is ridiculously good. Takashi is amazing and the interviewees are always phenomenal and compelling.
Yes, I agree. You can really tell Takashi loves doing this and really cares about the people he's interviewing and is genuinely interested in their story.
I agree! ♡ いいですね〜❤
@@25SoupyHe definitely does not care about Japan though.
It's legit. Better quality than a large percentage of material on social media. Cheers...☀
Great mic first off I think, as well he interviewed everyone in a quiet place with great environment.
Great cadence eloquent questions.
Ryuta's language skills are phenomenal! (The guy who was interviewed last.) Trilingual at 18...amazing. All the 3 people are so cool! Very inspiring. Thank you!
in belgium just below the netherlands a lot of people speak english, dutch, french, german
@@sergsergesrgergseg I don't think the german part is correct.
@@sergsergesrgergseg in Switzerland too, there are many trilinguals with german, french, english or italian
@@sergsergesrgergsegThe two dominant languages in Belgium are Flemish in the north on the Dutch border and French in the south. Flemish is a varient of Dutch. The g is not as guteral and said more like the letter H. There are some variations in vocabulary and word order. For the most part Flemish speakers and Dutch speakers can understand each other.
In the Netherlands, children are taught English very early. In large cities Dutch people speak English better than most native speakers.
Some Dutch have difficulty pronouncing the English TH the letter D is substituted..
The first woman is absolutely gorgeous! 😍
She has a distinctly American way of speaking
she's been on before too if i remember correctly
@@vaakdemandante8772 And that's one reason why she'll never be 'Japanese enough' for society.
She’s beautiful! I think she looks more Japanese than White American. Some Japanese do look Eurasian without being one.
she sees herself as white and will marry a yt guy
I should know not to start watching Takashi videos late at night. I can’t stop! I love this content. I’ve never been to Japan but taught English to Japanese students in the US many years ago. I loved those girls and they still stay in touch. Such a beautiful culture. I love learning more about it! ❤

“Going abroad” really does open your mind, especially when you live there a while. My family lived in W. Germany in the 70s and it permanently broadened my perspective. And my father served in the army at 17, also in Germany, and it did the same for him. That young Dutch man was right.
You are amazing! Thank you for doing this channel. You help so many of us understand, practice, and reconnect. I grew up in Hawaii, so a lot of Japanese there are from Okinawa. Different sounds. I really appreciate that you interview foreigners in Japan, and their language experiences. Thank you and please continue!
When I was living in Japan I saw a TV interview with a New Zealand woman who said she does not say her children are "half", she said that implied something was missing, she used the term " double" as her children were exposed to two cultures. I liked that perspective very much.
The exquisite young lady interviewed at the beginning is a knockout. Grace, elegance, and utterly beautiful.❤
Her mannerisms are Japanese, her speech is American, her mentality is in-between
What about the second girl? What if she reads your comment and feels slighted?
@@RickyDemetro Who cares? What if I feel slighted for every time a woman complimented some other man instead of me?
Do you understand how absurd your question is?
Do you not care about others?
@@RickyDemetro Ricky, seek help. You have some serious issues. Your thinking is insane.
Another great video Takashii san. It is a very revealing commentary on human nature. My heart is with every non-native person in a foreign country. You are absolutely correct to say that people who don't travel and explore other cultures are not likely to be able to relate to foreign guests. Welcome to reality. Keep up the good work. Love is all we need. 🙂 P.S. Even though it may seem like you might never be fully accepted in Japan as a foreigner, I found the people in Japan to always be very kind and polite. It's still a great country no matter what. imo
These young people are amazing. They have such interesting lives.
BARILOCHE USHUAIA A R G E N T I N A
Grass is always greener on the other side. I've met many foreign exchange students where I live, in reality these people who travel a lot are not living all that interesting, they're travelling because nothing is binding them to anywhere.
It's crazy how good well-off parents can make your life.
Meanwhile I'm roting in my room in Brazil
Great
Thanks for your work takashi, its good to see all perspectives and hear from their life stories and experiences
Your insight of Japanese and Asian culture is refreshing, covering many aspects of it including their sentiments and their struggles.
This was a beautiful video and all your the people you interviewed today were absolutely wonderful and beautiful people! I would accept them completely.
Takashi you are an excellent interviewer and your guests are fabulous
Takashii, I’m so impressed by this channel. First time tuning in and 1) you took the time to find people who are pertinent to the topic that you are discussing and 2) your questions are completely on point and well thought before you asked the person you are interviewing. Domo Arigato ( hope I’m spelling this correctly)
I admire the tolerant and positive attitude of Ashley. She doesn’t take much offence at being seen as a foreigner inspite of seeing her self as being predominantly Japanese. I think she would adapt and succeed in almost any culture with those qualities…. even USA 🤔
Takashi, your english is improving massively. Always very interesting videos. Keep it up.
I find it very interesting that their body language also changes when they change languages. When speaking Japanese, they all stop moving as much as they did in their other languages.
Funny to hear the Dutch guy as a Dutch myself. Very Dutch accent! Wouldn’t expect that based on his English and Japanese, but at the same time logical as he lived here for 17 years.
Appreciate the content!
Do you mean less gesticulating when speaking Japanese? Hands movement are deem violent.

@@user-er3ri6sc3joh wow why is that?
Damn Ashley stop messing with your hair it is so irritating!
I once visited a friend Paris, a Japanese woman who moved from Japan to France to marry her French boyfriend. One morning I met her at her apartment and she spoke to me in English which was almost perfect. My friend, Akiko, was straightforward to me like many Americans are with their friends. Then we went to a cafe and she spoke to the staff in absolutely perfect French (French speakers think French is her native language) and her body language and manner was a bit more soft and feminine than when she spoke to me in English. Finally, she had to go pay her rent to her landlord who was an older Japanese man. When she conversed with him it was like a bodily transformation. Akiko was very, very soft spoken and she even seemed somehow smaller in stature. When we left I said "what was that?!" and Akiko said "I know. It is so strange but with older Japanese males I am expected to act a bit subservient.."
wow. thanks. great video. Loved to hear them introduce themselves. That dutch guy was amazing with 3 languages. You can hear the dutch accent in his english but still amazing his grasp of the languages and his self-confidence and charisma is inspiring.
The ladies were really great too. So pretty also. Very self-confident and good presentation skills.
Great video, great interviewer very respectful, and the people being interviewed were good too.
I lived in over 20 different countries however none of them were my home country (Cyprus). Because of this I never felt strange at all one way or the other. I never felt the need to belong anywhere because everywhere I was, I was not originally from that country so very quickly especially growing up I just got used to being a local wherever I was. When I lived in Japan, I loved it because if you actually spoke Japanese to people they really appreciated it. I think Tokyo is a little different - I prefer the smaller cities and the villages, especially the villages, regard anyone not from the exact same place as a foreigner anyway and hence its actually MUCH easier to get close to people. It might seem paradoxical but the point is, if you regard everyone as a foreign then you are much more open simply by necessity.
That was really cool to hear dutch spoken for the first time! I have a coworker who is Dutch but speaks Japanese so fluently we don't even bother with English.
Dutch sounds kind of close to Norwegian interestingly. I wasn't expecting that.
Great episode Takashi san. I live in Tokyo also. Would be great to chat with you sometime
Great interviews! ありがとうございました 😊
I am still watching the video but the first girl was really well spoken, really articulate. Enjoyed it a lot!
Takashi - I love your videos. I’m American only but got to spend a month in Japan a few years ago and loved it. Japanese people are hard to get to know, so I had to hire a lot of tour guides. I feel that I am back there with them when I watch your interviews. You speak very directly but also very respectfully at the same time. Thanks for the videos.
Takashisan, your English has improved so much over the years. It's VERY fast now. Good work! 👍🏻😎
it is nice to see

yuh
Good job uncle Tom's cabin 😅
That was one of the most interesting of your interviews! All those people interviewed well and had interesting and insightful perspectives.
Great report Takashii. I enjoyed very much listening to all these young Japanese experiences.
They're all so beautiful/handsome....
Thanks ❤
Thank you. 😉
@@masashinakamura61 You're welcome! :)

Great segments. Nice depth of field for questions.
I see you're an artists at getting people's certain reactions. I dare say.
Takashii, you are a very, very good interviewer.
This was very interesting. Very good. Thanks for posting/sharing with us. Cheers!
I'm always impressed with how well kept the locations you film from are. Even though they appear to be back alleys and such. It's a lot trashier here in the US.
Takashi is a great interviewer, is polite, does not interrupt, and always asks great questions.
Thank you for continuing to post.
Great interviews, very interesting.....thank you for the work you put into these!
I like this series of videos especially hearing about their backgrounds and hearing how bilingual they are. Being of Chinese descent I grew up in the UK and feel more British than Chinese and can associate with the sentiments that your interviewees bring out. Japan is also one of the places that I have great admiration of and have visited 3 times and the idea of teaching English there is tempting.
Phenomenal interviews. Thank you!
Your channel and your content is so good!
I just think you're sharing with the world something that is VERY important! It's sharing something that we should all hear and have conversations about with most normal open minded intelligent individuals. There are always going to be ignorant people in every country but for most people we should all hear this. Hopefully it will help people to be more considerate of other people. Such an interesting conversation.
amazing interview of three wonderful people. very inspiring , thank you Takashi
Half white and half japanese people are really beautiful tbh
in the "islands", we call them "hapa-haole"......imo, the desire to have these kinda kids is reason why I see the HUGE influx / increase of asian women dating or married to caucasian.
It really depends. We have words to describe people who don't turn up so great.
If Asian mothers of future hapas had sliders to adjust the racial ratio beforehand...
@@yo2trader539list of words....be prepared for some negative ones: spoiled, conceited, bully, brat, god's gift to man/woman, brash.
I have 2 nephews that are half Japanese half American. My sister is 100% Japanese though both she and I grew up in Paraguay. The questions that the interviewer asked can be re-asked to my 2 nephews. Culturally speaking, if I was in Japan, I would feel as a foreigner. Living in the US, I feel Japanese sometimes, and sometimes as a Paraguayan. I am pretty sure that if I were to move back to Paraguay, I would feel more American. Though confusing that's my identity.
That was a fantastic video. The two big themes that came out of this is how unaccepting Japanese people are which is super ironic in every which way because they're generally friendly and super polite. But behind that is the idea that Japanese is a pure kind of spirit and if you're just a little bit different you're just not one of us. It's understandable but it's also kind of shameful for the modern world? Highly debatable topic..
The other is the burden that is put on these children and is put on these children to try to make the best of being a part of two different worlds. They constantly kept saying how they didn't feel like they fit in either one and that is a real thing to take into account because it has the potential to completely derail their growing up or even when they get older as it gets harder to make friends.
This video was especially important I think to people who are very much open to have Japanese children or children with a Japanese. I'm very much open to it, and I understand the issues that these people are discussing. The one thing that helps me I guess is I don't care to be Japanese because I'm definitely not, and however they respond to that is however they respond. In most cases the fitting in that most people would like to do with Japanese is just at least not be socially kept at a distance, because that's the killer for everybody no matter how sweet tough or whatever your personality is. And that is the big thing that if you can't deal with it you just cannot be there.
Cheers all
❤
Really love your channel Takashi 😊😊 we're planning to visit Japan next year
I always enjoy these videos one of my favorite channels!
As a half Japanese myself maybe wanting to live in Japan one day, this video was very helpful. Thanks Takashii.🙏🏼
Very insightful and smiled all the through.
Thank you, that was such an interesting video. I appreciate the respect you showed your interviewees. I wish you well.
I watched your videos and i think you are best person I have ever seen as the way you talk people,I love it❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As a German, I understood some of the dutch phrases even not knowing dutch at all. Amazing progress my half dutch/japanese friend. Keep going!
Yes, Dutch is like if German and English had a baby 👶
Just now discovered this channel and subscribed. Thank you for sharing the Japanese life with us.
Great job Takashi, Keep going
We appretiate your effort
Great Video once again Takashiii. Regarding the comment about friends being denied service in Japan... I think there is a misunderstanding out there with regard to "being denied service" in Japan. Where it can happen is in areas that are related to more adult entertainment, e.g. specific types of niche bars or places that typically have Japanese men as clients in the entertainment / nightlife districts of a city. Normal every day places open to the general public this is not an issue.
I have 2 nieces who are white/Japanese and grew up in Japan. They are currently in their 30s. One still lives in Japan, the other in New Zealand. I always wondered what their experience was.
Okay, I get the “ask them” suggestion. I will do that.
Asking?
Ask them?
My neighbors friend is half Japanese and half Israeli. Very interesting and unique combination.
lol why don't you just ask them? 🤷🏽♀
japan & usa are both very racist countries. for asian/caucasian mixed ppl, they probably have a better time living in central asian countries. at least your appearance doesnt stand out. everyone around u looks like asian/caucasian mixes....😎😎😎
I enjoyed this post very much! Thanks, Takashī !
Hi 👋🏽 I appreciate this video, thanks for sharing. I begin to get emotional as I noticed the three that you interviewed didn’t feel inclusion from either side of their ethnicity. And I’m proud they took the initiative to travel to Japan. That way they could gain a deeper connection and understanding of their selves and their culture 💚 I would like to hear/see more Japanese travel out and more travel in, business is a good opportunity to gain the experience of worlds. I’m praying for Japan 🩵 my son will some day visit there 🥰 maybe a family trip ☺️
Hej Takashii, many thanks for making this video. I have been fascinated by Japan since I was little.... so yes, thanks for making it possible to understand the culture a little more for outsiders.
I noticed your expressions and reactions with the young man are slightly different than those with the other two young ladies :) i don't know if others have also noticed it...
Interesting observation, Abe. Do you think he is more open around the man, and more reserved and shy around the women?
That Dutch Japanese guy at 13:53 could get a modeling contract in the USA easy. His handsome eurasian looks are exactly what is considered attractive over here, like actors Daren Barnett, Darren Criss, or Keanu Reeves.
I like the courtesy of the bow at the end of the interviews..seems more civil than a fist-bump.
You can't really take your eyes off Kat. Stunning.
This channel is such a big motivator for studying Japanese - like my new video shows, I'm still definitely a beginner at it haha
Great interview questions Takashi always good videos
Japowhites are super beautiful. Great combo!
That was interesting. I would like to see more videos like this. Well done. 👏
Amazing interview & Takashi is a good interviewer!!!
Interesting and entertaining as always. Thank you.
Thank you for your interesting show. I like the way you let people talk for a while and really listen to them, to let them express themselves. I was in Tokyo in 1985 and half-American, half-Japanese fashion models were considered cool. Although sometimes I was not able to identify them, my Japanese "family" always could. I'm sorry for them that this kind of international cooperation (having children together) results in their feeling like outsiders wherever they go. But sometimes the outsiders have a special ability to really see the main society more clearly.
ARGENCHINA
I really like to thank you and the people you spoke with, I really enjoyed my short stay in Tokyo. The people were great, and I loved their commitment to their culture. Being a half-breed is true everywhere I'm half Native America & Spanish, but when I go to "The Rez", I'm looked at as Mexican, and Spanish speaking people look at me as White. So Thank You.
We appreciate these interviews. We learn so much more about Japanese cultures and values as well beliefs.
And racist xenophobia.
@@SarahNGeti
I dislike your disingenuous comment. A lot of people from different backgrounds and ethnicities love Japanese culture and Japan as a nation.
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 Yes, you are 100% right! That has nothing to do with the Xenophobia existing in Japanese culture. I love Japanese also.
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 The first girl interviewed talked about half Japanese people she knew that were born and raised in Japan being turned away from restaurants because they didn't look Japanese. What would you call that if not racism and/or xenophobia? There is a lot to love and admire about Japan but don't be naive, there are problems in Japan as there are everywhere.
@@Jambobist it's probably a language barrier or etiquette issue and it looks like some restaurants only take in Phone reservations which they do even in USA. I know because my fiancée is asian. Again, never say something is racist or xenophobic unless you can be absolutely sure about it. Please don't be judgemental.
I love your videos Takashii-san
I am always looking forward for new content ❤
Thank you so much for such a interesting videos. I would like to see perhaps older people of part American or born in America that are now living in Japan. I visited Japan and absolutely loved it there. I am 70 years old, born in America and wished I had moved to Japan when I was young.
Very interesting video, thank you.
You're doing a very good job Takashii, grettings from Brazil !
i can somewhat relate. Not the same like these guys but in a way. Both my parents are Mexican from Guadalajara and Veracruz . They came to the US and I was born in California. I grew up but never hanging out with other Mexicans. So it was normal California life. Then going to mexico to hangout with my family in mexico. I standout as the white guy in the family due to my mannerisms and the way i speak. But was never treated that differently. Only problem I get when i visit mexico is that i standout as a american with my accent and so the when i go out to buy stuff and they see me as a american, street store owners will up the price on items on me when buying at stores. Just because im visiting mexico and walking around doesn't mean i have money. In most mexican family they will always have that one family memeber that they nickname " el güero" (sounds like wuueedo) meaning white boy. Never gotten that nickname but when they give it to some people it doesnt have any malicious intent when its friends and family that call you that. They even got nicknames as "gordito" or "el gordo " meaning fat guy. mexico is cool but its not safe in some areas. once the sun is down no one goes out at night. Just wanted to share
_"Once the sun is down, no one goes out at night."_ Which part of Mexico did you visit? The country is *huge* and there are cities and cosmopolitan neighbourhoods with people enjoying restaurants, galleries, cafés, and bars that close when the sun is about to come out again, that have a microscopic percentage of the crime rate of some cities or neighbourhoods in the US. I mean, it's like going on holiday to Belmont or Fifth Ward, and stating the obvious.

Really enjoyed the video, your interview's are always awesome!
Thank you for keeping it up 🙇🏻♀️
We really appreciate you Takashi-san 🙏🏻
A brilliant and very interesting video. Thank you. Especially the second and third persons. Very mature and intelligent.
very enlightening. My son is happa and I seek exposure to articles/videos to help me understand the added complexities with being mixed race.
Takashii, thanks for doing this video! Brilliant! For me it was bitter sweet because I am the grandfather of 2 incredible grandsons that are half Japanese and half Italian, and I feel they have inherited the best parts of my son and daughter-in-law, who are also wonderful human beings. The sad part for me is the fact that they live in Vancouver and I in Toronto, Canada, and I don't see them as often as I would like to. On my bucket list is to visit Japan with both of my grandsons.
I'm half American white and half asian. I feel sorry for my fellow halfus who feel like they NEED to be "accepted" by either group to feel one race or the other. I'm proud to be white and I'm proud to be asian and when I convey my love of my heritage I find "acceptance" comes easy.
I'd be careful about talking about being proud to be white lmaoo
Edit: idc if you're proud to be white, im just saying that it might get you in trouble. A lot of you are assuming I hold a leftist position on this - I don't lmao, quite the opposite

@@s210761
Yes! When you say you are proud of your race, one should say it with more gusto no matter what race it is. And one should always know that people that race bait are human trash.
@@s210761Anyone can be proud of their heritage or none at all. This is hypocrisy. Y’all would rather teach people to hate them selves for being the “ wrong ethnicity” rather than proud

Wow. Havent watched in a few years and his channel blew up. I remember when he only had a few thousand followers. Much success bro!
This was really interesting, thank you.
Don't know how I wound up here but I found this very interesting and watched the whole video. Good Job!
I’ve lived in many different places and cultures like these people being interviewed (including Japan) I am very comfortable with it. The only time I’m not is when other people verbalize their assumptions that I should somehow feel negatively (“Don’t you…” ) Overwhelmingly the commenters have never had any adventure or diversity. Japan was shocking in how much they love other cultures from afar like MOVIES but isolate PEOPLE. I wasn’t trying to be Japanese but I can still see how that could be.
These were excellent informative interviews ! These young people have adjusted well to their mixed cultures : >)
This was such a cool episode!
Excellent video. All 3 of our kids are half Japanese who grew up in America (mother is from Japan and teaches Japanese at the university, father is also a professor). However, the father is half white, half black. It would be interesting to do the same video with half-Japanese people of different ethnicities, esp. Black and Latino! GREAT questions TAKASHI - you are an excellent interviewer: polite, respectful, don't talk too much (many interviewers do), your English is outstanding and your questions are very relevant. GREAT WORK! A+
I moved to England from Scotland when I was 29, I still have my Scottish accent according to my English friends although I don’t hear it. When I go to Scotland my family and friends comment on my posh English accent again I don’t hear it but regardless I never have any problems in either country.
Loving ur videos, it’s nice to hear the compliments and positivity about America. 🇺🇸. I would love to visit Japan someday. The two mixed girls are very very beautiful. Hope to find someone like them someday also.
This guy is a phenomenal interviewer.
i lived in japan for 3 years as a teenager late 60's, traveled around a lot - my experience with japanese people was wonderful, i never felt like an outsider - i only spoke a little japanese but communicating never seemed to be a problem - i loved every moment in japan - i guess from what i hear my experience seems to be unique, maybe it was just the era or maybe it was just that i loved everything about japan and the people
I have watched a lot of your videos. V
The very interesting topics and themes you introduce really help English speaking foreigners and Japanese people better understand what it is really like to live in and experience Japanese culture. Thank you.
I like your videos, I think you make good interviews on the racial and cultural subject. I have a personal interest in this matter. Thanks
wow. that was a great video. very informative, and reinforces much of the information that i have gathered to this point. thank you.
The lady interviewed first is really pretty, full of personality.
