- About 25 generations of one family have made roasted rice cakes at Ichimonjiya Wasuke in Kyoto, Japan. Worshippers praying for good health at the Shinto shrine next door eat them as part of their rituals. The shop started in 1001 AD as the area was suffering from epidemics, and now the COVID-19 pandemic has threatened the business.

How One Of Japan's Oldest Businesses Has Served Roasted Mochi For Over 1,000 Years
The fact that she'd take on debt to pay her employees even if theyre not working, really goes to show how much she cares for her employees
It is common to pay employees in times like these so you don’t lose trained, good employees and have no one left once these times end.
@@kimjongun5172 Oh man, I wish American employees felt that way.
@@kimjongun5172 no is not common, at least in south america
There’s a lot more loyalty between employees and companies in Japan historically compared to the west.
I’ve heard during the pandemic, Japanese government gave out loans with zero interest to help with their business. I hope her shop is doing ok
Some Japanese are literally the embodiment of "If you're going to do something, do one thing, and do it well."

I swear Japanese are ultra dedicated to whatever they do
They could be sweeping the streets and make it sound like the best job in the world
Because they are grateful. Grateful people tend to be content with what they have or do. This is reflected in every thing they do from table manner to running big corps.
yes those kamikaze pilots were 100% dedicated.
@@papagen00 generally, Pilots who underwent "kamikaze" missions, generally did multiple of them due to weather conditions or perceiving an inability to carry through. Many were conscripted, some university students, even Koreans with the notion they would be hailed as a true Japanese hero in spirit. Though I'm sure there were many who volunteered, it's equally as seen to have many unwilling participants. One recorded Kamikaze pilot was disciplined for having flown too many kamikaze missions, his superiors believing that he didn't have the guts for it.
@@edie9158 that’s why America knew they had to use the bomb. Japan will never surrender and they’ll burn their enemies together with them.

@@rizdalegend how is it a scam because they have secured clients? this here is normal many family own business on iconic and well placed locations, the most extraordinary part here is the 25th generations part that is rare and there is only few older business like a 1300 years old family own hotel also in japan.
Agree.
I envy Japan because India doesn't have a culture of inheriting stores from generation to generation.

Japan is on different level. 10 years of practice just to learn how to properly roast?.thats extreme dedication
Well, There is a saying that when it comes to kabayaki it takes three years to master skewering the eel, eight years to split the eel, and a lifetime to master grilling it.
@@Steamed nope . you're kinda missing the point. The examples you stated are different from what they do.. you're talking about as a whole..what im saying is how they focus on the most minor detail for a long time..there are some apprentice who spend 2 to 4 years just on picking coal and nothing else..like what other culture does that?..its embedded in their culture..they do the simplest thing with great pride.
@@Steamed he's only pointing out that japan has great attention to detail and basics when its not necessay, even for picking coal for cooking a dish, which doesnt require as much attention to detail. Probably wasnt talking about coal miners. Japan does have a culture of great attention to detail thats not necessary, see wabi sabi, which can be a good thing and also often times a bad thing. Where did disrespect for coal miners come from? You're getting defensive assuming things
@@Steamed calm down we are not saying only Japan does it but just stating that we are impressed that it seems in Japan it seems be way more prevalent than others. If it happened everywhere to such a degree I don't think you'd have thousands upon thousands of comments on CZcams expressing astonishment and awe.
@@Steamed racist or a weaboo? You sound like the racist to me. As an Asian myself there is no reason to hate Japan for their good attributes. We can learn from them not saying we all don't have good traditions and customs in our countries but this is a video about Japan!
What a thought, "we don't have to earn too much" - "our business should just be to never get bored, and nothing more"... Keeping prices affordable for customers and not always worrying about maximizing profits in every way.

@@Dr_Khanz why why should they meet tell me
She clearly does it for traditional and ritual purposes, other than that it's a pretty horrible business route to take lol.
@@yassinee. yeah because if the price low the business people would have die from no money in the family and the world would be turn into chaos but she do because of place where she live in from her ancestors.
And taking out loans to pay employees when shut down. That would never happen in the US.
I love how shes not going to pressure her children to keep the buisiness going, if they want to do it they can, if they dont wanna they dont have to.
Yeees. My heart got soft on that one They are by far one of the chillest and oldest tradition there is.
Her kids aren't from the right family. They're from her husband's family. So they would not be keeping it the family line by the Japanese way of counting.
@@toomanymarys7355 You are so SO WRONG. There's a long Japanese tradition of "adopting" a son in law in the family so they can continue the family craft, even in case of trades reserved only for men. That she was even doing this business in the first place means it's NOT reserved for men. Did you really think that 25 generations of a business was really sustained by just men? Westerners really need to STFU about the things they know nothing about.
@@anthyavila9726 Tradition and traditional business has gone down a lot ever since the rise of the Meiji Government and even before. Though there are and have been many rules on succession and passing on crafts by gender or some such. There is no need to adopt a son in law or even have someone through marriage or blood succeed in owning the business. There have been examples of which the ownership of traditional companies and business change, and the craft and tradition is kept alive by new owners.
That being said, according to many views of traditional Japanese laws of succession, historically, has been done many times, though to whatever the adopted child may receive was usually challenged by a family member of the original family, whether it be an close or distantly related by blood. I doubt something like this would be done over a shop as honor systems and Imperial codes of conduct has long been abandoned. If a child or newer person from a new generation were to take over, even one not bound by blood or law, could take over the business in any case. As long as it takes a proper legal form, it can happen without a doubt.
Yep, another millennial traditional dies.
More than 50% of the companies in the world that have been around for more than 200 years are Japanese companies.
There are more than 30,000 companies in Japan that have been around for more than 100 years.
I believe they also have half of the world's 10 oldest buisnesses as well
woah thats so cool!
@@jjOnceAgain yep including the top 1 a 1300 years hotel
Wow nice info
I don't know what feeling I feel, it's like a warm tingling good feeling thinking about 25 generations keeping a tradition going. There could be people who stood where you where, doing what you did, and you don't even know their name, but you have their blood in your veins. Something about that is so beautiful to me

I wanted the video to be longer because I love to listen to her talking. It is somewhat relaxing. She gives that sweet grandma vibes.
True she does
kyoto accent
Like the Japanese version of La Abuela.
I was born and grew up in the area and that mochi was my favorite snack when I was kid. The video makes me nostalgic.
Whenever I see Japanese doing something with so much pride and precision and passion, it reminds me that there is still so much to learn from what I am doing.
.we all here on Earth to Learn...to Teach.
This way humanity grows as a whole , so at the end of this life we are ready for the next level.
Have a nice Day.
The way she talks seems like she's storytelling. Gods, I can listen to her all day while eating those mochis

She will be a great seiyuu as a motherly goddess voice that become the prologue of the story
@@JKinder313 Most Japanese are just culturally Shinto
@@JKinder313 How is it different than another other religion? Shinto is pretty innocent.
@@JKinder313 her paganism is the one I adore the most. So different from those hypocrite holly books believers.
It’s so inspiring how dedicated she is to her work. Not allowing deliveries might have hurt her business, but the essence of what it was made for never leaves
Deliveries will likely add the high possibility of spoilage and hardness to the food product. Mochi is best eaten within a short period after purchase.
@@ribos2762 yeah, it's about the sacredness and meaning of eating it there specifically. It encourages people to go on walks too.
Also it would be harder to control the quality just like one of the reply said. It's best eaten warm not cold.
That's culture for you!
My goodness! Her voice is so soothing, all my anxiety and stress just flew away.
I was searching for a way to relieve stress, I never knew accidentally clicking on a recommended video will do the job.
(Thanks CZcams and Business Insider)
I feel much better now ☺
Omg same here, i love her voice. It sounds like Miyuki Sawashiro
I was thinking the same lol. Wish she had an ASMR
Me too! Her voice is sooooo nice! ^^
I understood nothing of what she said (without subtitles) but I could listen to her all day.
What a charming older lady. Just her calm and sweet personality alone is priceless. Her dedication and faith is admirable. As well as her faith in her family. She doesn't need to choose anyone to run family buissness. Someone will step up to that challenge when it comes. Nobody needs to suffer pressure of being forced into it. It should be individual choice of said person or family as a whole. With such warm personality I hope for the best for her and her family.
"running a shop to never get bored and nothing more" is such an honorable way to live.
If only large corporations can understand this and diversify our economy....
@@KM-00 Lmao you’re actually hoping that an entity that exists to make money and exists only because it makes money will ever have values like this?

I really like how Japanese culture has such a deep sense of mannerism. Through their tradition, how they talk, think and act.
They don't allow foreigners and keep it within their own. This is the only way.
@@doswheelsbetter8292 must protect tradition
@@doswheelsbetter8292 A positive way to look at this is that foreigners don't share the same beliefs and values because of different roots, histories and environments. No one would want to force a person of a different background to adhere to the same values because it's inconvenient to both parties, unless there is a greater motivation/motive.
They're also insanely conformist.
In Japan, they politely express gratitude to others by saying, "Kimochiiii, Yamete!"
She’s such a classy lady with a beautiful smile and voice. The way she speaks is just so comforting.
That must be so emotionally, and spiritually fulfilling to be carrying on a legacy spanning 1,000 years while keeping it modern and faithful to the history of it

The Japanese are all about quality and authencity: specialize in something and continue to improve until it is perfect in every respect, refine the ingrediants, refine your method, and create a work of art that cannot be duplicated. That is the real relentless pursuit of perfection.
You should see their Katana making process. TRULY an art.
This aspect is great in restaurants because instead of every restaurant trying to sell as much variety as possible, you have shops that sell one thing but extremely well

She offers the Mochi to Kami, not “God” or “gods” technically. In Japanese word Kami, person can become a Kami after someone passes away, a place can be inhabited by Kami, and a frequently used tool can almost become a Kami (definitely have a spirit or soul, like a spatula) so the definition of Kami is not the same and less and more than God
She offered the mochi to kojīn-sama. Not kami-sama. Get that one right before trying to preach
Love how the Japanese culture still cares about honor and mannerism. Still gives me hope for humanity
They are not affected too much by "westernism". They did in 80-2010s and it created suicide, low marriage rate and many other social issues. But slowly they will understand that their traditional way of thinking is better than western bs mess.

No problem. No need to apologize for english because it's just a language. By low marriage rate I meant that way less people are now marrying. In western culture many people don't want marry anymore.

I really really hope her next generation, whether it's her children or relatives keep it going. So many people leaving their traditional family businesses for new "city" life style or corporate career only to realize it's such a bad way of living. And that the fullfillment of traditional work and life style can never be even comparable.
Few generation later most people will realize city life and corporate like jobs aren't really for us humans. It affects us mentally heavily. There already people now trying to leave that lifestyle. I know I am one.
I believe that through the internet, these cultural and spiritual practices and others can be kept alive by the people that believe in them, whether that's through donations in person or through something like gofundme, tourism sales, and the donations of time made by those that want to stay and learn these practices. Not gonna lie, though, this is going on my list of places to visit after the pandemic!
There is always hope. An acquaintance of mine had worked as a successful graphic designer for decades, but as time went on he got tired of the corporate rat race and decided to go back to his little hometown, and take over his aging father's donut shop. He put his own spin on the trusty old recipes and is keeping it going as his father retired.
As time goes on we tend to realize what is most important in life, you know. I hope Naomi-san will have a successor just as dedicated as herself.
Yes and no? It really depends on where you are and how you live. Some might argue that traditional lifestyles are also bad and that we should go back to being cavemen. Really, it's up to you. Certain city jobs can be taxing and hard, but the same goes for rural jobs. To me, what's important is that you work with what you love doing and what skills you have and that you should try your best to adjust your environment without affecting it negatively, while also adjusting yourself. In a lot of ways, I am quite the opposite, although I'm mostly going from a lower-class urban lifestyle to a middle-class urban lifestyle. While I admire people for preserving their traditions and do try to revive certain others from my own country, I am not one to force people to leave or go to city, remove or follow certain traditions, it is up to them. I also try to encourage people to create crafts and their own traditions, rather than simply following everything their ancestors did. If they want to continue the tradition, great. If they want to renew it, change it up a bit, good as well. If they want to replace it with a new tradition, fine too. Our lives shouldn't have to be dictated by others, whether it's tradition or modernity, rather it's up to us. If you feel that city life is not your cup of tea, it is your decision to make and I hope it goes well...

She has the most loyal and sweet spirit I've ever felt before. She touched my soul.
I feel like when I hear about mutigenerational Japanese businesses, it's usually passed down between generations of men. It's refreshing to hear about a business that's passed down for 25 generations of women in the family.
It’s hard to make a multi-generational business when Japan was a patriarchal warrior country.
It seems like the service was to help the temple visitors feel blessed rather than make a profit. That is what gave it a chance to be inherited and operated by females. It really is special.
Japanese cuisine always amazes me
I've been to this shrine and even to her shop ever since I was a little girl and I can't even count how many mochi I've had over the years! It really takes you back in time in a way so this place has a very special place in my heart as I have many sweet memories from Kyoto, the shrine, and her shop.

I have to say Japan is by far the most spectacular country I've ever been to. The people are incredible and I would recommend anyone thinking of traveling to put Japan at the top of their list. It is truly an example to the world.
Thank you for the kind words! God bless you!
Now that's a cool family tradition, for some reason I love when people do something for many generations
Love, devotion, and respect. What cooking ingredients! Together with honour and integrity. Universal receipe. This is a beautiful story. Thank you.
The owner lady has such a nice voice.
If i ever go to Japan, I'll definitely go there. This is so beautiful and has to be preserved
she seems so nice, like she’d be more than happy to give you a hug :)
The voice of this woman is just... pleasing. I could listen to her for hours without understanding a word.
the lady has a lovely expressive voice, like one of an anime character lol
The generation when they started this: There will be flying horses and carriages in the future!
This may well be the most beautiful thing I see for the whole year. What a joy to commit yourself to purpose in the way she does.
The fact that this small sweet vendors outlived 3 shogunate dynasties, one imperial power, dozens of disasters, and serving same food from ancient Samurai and peasants, to the modern businessman and salaryman, astonished me
As it has already been said...her Voice and intonation are very soothing and anime worthy...
It's sad that a lot of businesses that have been around decades or even centuries and survived more deadly pandemics couldn't survive covid 😭
Really hope they make it💪
Oh, they survived COVID just fine. It was the government restrictions they couldn't survive.
@@Bob_Adkins they're still there and seem to be doin pkay
This culture is the reason why I love Japan. I wish I could go to Japan someday💖
I love how she speaks. Met many nice ladies her age while in Japan and they always made my day with their attitude and openness.
Wow, 1000 years in business that's amazing! Here's to 1000 more years!
I love how deeply the roots of tradition run. While they aren't afraid to adjust to the times, they won't ever leave their traditions. Some may say it's sexist to have the women learning and carrying on the practice but this isn't some big corporation where one sex are valued more than the other because one or the other couldn't possibly do the others jobs. This is all about tradition of the women being sacred. Men are sacred in other traditions in Japan, it balances out so well.
Thank you for sharing this story!
And I got the opportunity to try their mochi - which was absolutely amazing! definitely worth the visit if you are in the area
Her voice is so calming and beautiful. I just love to hear her dedication. We’re rooting for you!!
Her the tone of her voice is so niceeeee.
You must not speak Japanese, she sounds like a traveling salesman trying to scam you out of something.
@@fourthpanda and you must be a hater.
@@darkerthanblackk1 why wouldn't I be? She sounds really fake but y'all are swooning over her lol it's weird.
@@fourthpanda didn’t know a compliment was swooning. Being a hater isn’t a good look. I’ve noticed you have left many hater comments on this video. It’s weird lol. Hope you’re okay.
@@darkerthanblackk1 have you read the comment section of this video?
I’m always so amazed a Japanese culture, so family oriented and the cars that goes into there work amazing.
When a food is prepared with the utmost respect, care and love, you know it will be an outstanding one.
She has such a calming voice I could listen to her explain things forever
I’m putting this place on my bucket list this place is a must go for me!❤️
She is amazingly humble. I would love to meet her!
Had the pleasure of eating their mochi. They're delicious, and the shops an amazing place to sit during winter, right next to the small stove.
This is the kind of spirit that makes me proud to be a Japanese descendant. It’s really inspiring!
Woman: "only those who practice this for 10 years can roast the mochi properly"
The English auto generated captions:
"I know"
LMAO XD
I literally turned the auto caption on and looked for it hahahaha the "i know" got me weak! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oops forgot the time stamp but here it is 3:50
THE GOSPEL!
BELIEVE and RECEIVE Jesus' free gift of salvation:
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
1 Moreover brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which ye have also received, and wherein ye continue,
2 And whereby ye ARE saved, IF ye keep in memory, after what manner I preached it unto you, except ye have believed in vain.
3 For first of all, I delivered unto you that which I received, how^ that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures,
4 And that he was buried, and that he arose the third day, according to the Scriptures
^through the shed BLOOD of JESUS!
Romans 5:9
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
The only hope we have is Jesus. Jesus is the answer. He’s the only answer, and He’s the only hope. And His return for us as His church is our only hope. That’s what the good news is.
In fact, in 1 Thessalonians, the first epistle that the Apostle Paul wrote, he shares the gospel in the context of the Rapture in Chapter 4 of 1 Thessalonians, saying, for we believe that Jesus was crucified, buried, and rose again on the third day, and He’s coming back again one day. That’s the good news.
RELIGION SAYS DO. JESUS CHRIST SAYS DONE!!
Soon one life will be PAST and that which only was done for Jesus Christ will LAST!
Ephesians 1:13-14
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
2 Corinthians 11:3
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
Do You Know God Personally? God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life.
God’s Love
“God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life”
God’s Plan
[Jesus speaking] “I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly” [that it might be full and meaningful” (John 10:10).
Why is it that most people are not experiencing the abundant life? Because…Man is SINFUL and SEPARATED from God. Therefore, he cannot know and experience God’s love and plan for his life.
Man Is Sinful
“All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Man was created to have fellowship with God; but, because of his stubborn self-will, he chose to go his own independent way, and fellowship with God was broken. This self-will, characterized by an attitude of active rebellion or passive indifference, is an evidence of what the Bible calls sin.
Man Is Separated
“The wages of sin is death” [spiritual separation from God] (Romans 6:23). Man is continually trying to reach God and the abundant life through his own efforts, such as a good life, philosophy, or religion - but he inevitably fails. The only way to bridge this gulf…
He Died in Our Place
“God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).
He Rose From the Dead
“Christ died for our sins…He was buried…He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures…He appeared to Peter, then to the twelve. After that He appeared to more than five hundred…” (1 Corinthians 15:3-6).
He Is the Only Way to God
“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me’” (John 14:6).
This shows that God has bridged the gulf which separates us from Him by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross in our place to pay the penalty for our sins. It is not enough just to know this…We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God’s love and plan for our lives.
We Must Receive Christ
“As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12)
We Receive Christ Through Faith
“By grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast” (Ephesians 2:8,9).When We Receive Christ, We Experience a New Birth ( John 3:1-8).
We Receive Christ by Personal Invitation
[Christ speaking] “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him” (Revelation 3:20). Receiving Christ involves turning to God from self (repentance) and trusting Christ to come into our lives to forgive our sins and to make us what He wants us to be. Just to agree intellectually that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died on the cross for our sins is not enough. Nor is it enough to have an emotional experience. We receive Jesus Christ by faith, as an act of the will. All the work of salvation was done by Jesus Himself. He took upon Himself the punishment for our sins as well as the sins themselves, and went to the cross and paid for every sin that would ever be committed throughout history.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE BORN AGAIN?...
The phrase “born again” applies to people who have accepted Jesus as their Savior or Redeemer. The born again soul realizes that they are a sinner (Romans 3:23) and that the penalty for that sin is death (Romans 6:23). To rectify the circumstances, God sent His only Son to die in their place, to take the punishment for sin (Romans 5:8). After Jesus’ death, He arose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:3-6). Jesus is the only way to God (John 14:6) and He provides the blessing of salvation. Each person has the choice to receive or reject God’s gift through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9) and experience new birth (John 3:1-8).
WHAT IS BIBLICAL REPENTANCE?
Biblical repentance is God centered repentance comes from the greek word 'METANOIA' which means change of one's mind and heart which imparts a new direction to the whole life.
Repent (To repent, in relation to salvation, is to change your mind from unbelief to belief in Jesus Christ. To being dead in your sins to a new creature in Christ) and believe in the Gospel.
The ABCs of Salvation:
The A is for: Admit or acknowledge that you’ve sinned, that you need the Savior. Romans 3:10 says, “There is no one righteous, not even one.” Romans 3:23 tells us why. It’s because “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 6:23 says, “The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
The B very simply is for: Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord. Romans 10:9-10 says, “If you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved.”
The C stands for: Call upon the name of the Lord. Or as Romans 10:9-10 also says, “If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Here’s why, “For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.” Romans 10:13 tells us how. It says, “All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.”....
So there you have it! The BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST is found all throughout the Gospel. You can't preach the blood, without preaching the Gospel, and you can't preach the Gospel without preaching the Blood. For the Bible clearly teaches salvation is by FAITH, without WORKS (Eph. 2:8,). Faith in what? FAITH IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!
Romans 3:25-28 make this clear:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
To be justified, or saved, a person's faith must be wholly in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. This declares God the Just one. When a sinner is saved, he cannot boast about himself or his works. He'll only brag upon Jesus who saved him from his sins!
Sadly, in our modern age of apostasy, very few who claim to be Christians ever preach the blood of Jesus for salvation. But the simple Bible truth is, YOU CANNOT EVEN BE A CHRISTIAN UNLESS YOU ARE TRUSTING ONLY IN THE SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!
This is super cool I'm glad this showed up in my recommended
