A few years ago, a Japanese company released a virtual, hologram girl who can act like your girlfriend. I showed Japanese people their promotion videos and asked for their views.
Do you want to translate my video? Upload your translation here www.youtube.com...
My boy didn't wanna admit he wanted one. He is asking questions like an investor.
“Seems convenient”
“What is?”
“She can turn off the lights”
😂😂😂
- Seems good enough!
- NANI ???
:P
that's something most real women can't do
Savage!!.
So I can have a hologram waifu? That's cool but I'll stick to something that's tangible like my waifu pillow.
But you can talk with your virtual waifu while you cuddle your pillow waifu!
Where the flipping flip is your mustache
Business idea: hologram-pillow waifu
I want a dakimakura too
Just Some Guy without a Mustache bloody humper
So he married a hologram version of Hatsune Miku?
*_That makes him a true man of culture_*
True men of culture also love real women. This guy's a hack.
He's on par with the Korean guy who married the Fate Testarossa pillow
Ikr. Lol 😂
@@LoliconSamalik That's not funny man! You talk as though hatsune miku isn't real!
That's exactly what I'm saying!
Question after question after question.
‘Do you want one?’
‘Urrrrm ........ no!’
Just be honest they all looked interested lol
A couple of the guys seemed to be making mental notes, right? :-D
I think it's kinda cool, not as gf, but more like a tamagochi or something (but must be tiring everyday).
True lol...
@@startnetworkbabinski3036 I'd love to have a little AI on my computer. Like something from an anime. Little avatar that can hold a conversation but also perform tasks. That would be super cool.
ZodiacPrince yeah like they mentioned it’s like the google homes and stuff that already exist, but with an anime character. I think it would be cool too but maybe with my fav idol (like the girl in the video too) lol
1:52 His friend is judging him so hard lol
Lol the way he look at him 😂🤣😂 like he already knew what he was thinking
And they're cute, they'd be able to get gfs
Im dead lmao
AHHAHAHAHHA
"You look like you want one" coming from him lol
Alexa: Waifu edition.
How disappointing when you say, "Miku, I'll see you after work," and Miku-Alexa goes, "I'm sorry, I don't know that one." - "Sumimasen, wakarimasen, kore."
LOLZZZZ HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! i'd give u a thousand likes if i could man XD!
And they said anime wasn’t real
Calm down dude
@Mikey Senpai DEGENERATES ALL OF YOU !
Japanese people who are comparatively more shy and less likely to be social are the least likely to buy that and vice versa for foreigners!?
That's the most contradictory thing I have ever heard
Maybe an unpopular opinion and off topic but the best part of all your videos are 'hey guys its yuta'
It is a good intro. :-)
[drops down] Hey guys, it’s Yuta.
she's basically the prototype of Joy from bladerunner 2049
Imagine a couple weeks down the road you start to see charges on your credit card for "holographic girlfriend costume set" and "holographic girl accessory set" after she acquires your credit card info without you knowing. She'll be just like a real life girlfriend.
She’s buying modules lmao
I like the idea from a tech perspective, like say if i could model my own character, customize the AI and such like you can with things like the Unity engine for games it would be kinda cool, for a person substitution not so much
wait a few years :D
Jarvis, basically.
"foreigners seem to be more into Anime then Japanese people"
lol
well its not completely wrong xD
But if you think deeply your smartphone is already pretty much a hologram girlfriend/boyfriend...
Yuta clearly looking for a girlfriend/boyfriend with that explicit T-Shirt lol
It does seem significant that with his mic blocking part of it all we saw of the shirt was "..ck me". Subliminal messages, anyone?
You can see how uneasy the men feel about this thing. They are all lying when they say they didn't know about it. I bet all then have already ordered their copy.
Go to akihabara i think its the best place to ask this question, i bet they all want those hologram waifu
@@benc1670 yes it would be interesting to watch or maybe would make my day lot better to watch their reaction and they true opinion not kind of this casual people opnion which they definitely dont want to be exposed of their hobby
1:54
“Could it be anyone? Like your favorite idol”
This dude gets straight to the point asking the right questions, oh my god 😂
One of the guys was definitely interested.
I never thought about the number of people you find in a group of friends! It's true! I've hanged out with even bigger crowds here in Spain, but I guess being a foreigner was also a factor in those situations.
I tend to think the percentage of hardcore otaku is about the same, and rather niche, in any given population in the developed world. Though maybe a bit higher than average in Japan, particularly when it comes to a focus on manga/anime related fandoms. The only reason it may seem more popular with those outside of Japan is that you are combining them all under the umbrella of "foreigners" here and the US alone has around 2 1/2 times the population of Japan and thus likely over double the number of otaku, even before considering the rest of the world outside of Japan who are being lumped in with us.
Yeah I'm a forever alone guy and I've accepted my fate this would be a good product to buy to keep me from talking to myself
Love this type of content! Very insightful because I think many people have preconceived notions of Japan prior to even going. And as always thanks for the subtitles!They’re really helping my Japanese! And btw that intro was awesome!
He : Is this a japanese thing?
Me : Well...
How high you can jump mate
Yuta! I must say I love you and your work! This video as many others you upload will help me in my research at University to get a ideia of what japanese people really think about VOCALOID, Hatsune Miku, etc...
Agradeço seu trabalho s2
LOL, it looked like you fell through the ceiling at the beginning! ;) Anyway great video mate! I admit I laughed out loud when you you asked that guy if he would buy one, he answered with no. Come on dude admit you really were more than interested! (the one who mentioned it felt he was doing the interview. Because he asked you question after question. )
"This could only be popular in Japan"
Little did he know :_)
2:28
This guy is a terrible liar isn't he?
As Hinatsuru Ai said: usotsuki usotsuki usotsuki usotsuki usotsuki usotsuki usotsuki usotsuki usotsuki
Of course foreigners buy a hologram waifu rather than japanese cause foreigners want use it for making content on youtube
Sorry for bad english
The idea of a holographic doll living in a box and pretending to be a boyfriend or a girlfriend seems to be catching on around the world, though. I looks like most of the examples I'm seeing are based on Alexa.
This is the prototype to MegaMan NT warrior
Holy shit, you might be onto something here
I want a hologram of Lieutenant Dan to help motivate me throughout the day.
Love your videos by the way!
That thumbnail says it all
Different stages of dissapointment
FYI the gizmo was mainly marketed to the American market (probably because of the high price tag and lower Otaku stigma). Notice how no one in Japan seems to have heard of it until this interview? Now there's a competitor in the Chinese market.
That man would buy it.
That man who started asking details.
"Don't date robots!" "Brought to you by, Space Pope."
That shirt is so cool 😎. I love you yutaaaaaa!! you are the best!!
*Guy* = It could also mean that there are less guys with girlfriends now.
*Me* = Aw come on! You just gonna call me out like that?
Nobody said that there were a lot of attention from foreigners because maybe they found it strange?
This was a really interesting bit on how others view this. Good job, Yuta. Keep up the good work.
there are japanese who will want them too. they just won't admit to it or wouldn't want their friends to find out about it. they are caught in the stigma of 'appearances' in front of others. foreigners are thinking more about the coolness of having such technology rather than 'appearances' to the group.
I can't shake the idea of your opening music sounding like a pre-school recess bell
A group of 3 people seems perfect to me. You're still with others, but there aren't many. And if you are together all the time with only one other person people will just assume that you're in a relationship. Especially if you're of the opposite gender. Therefore a group of 3 people is pretty much perfect. Though, I don't mind a 4th person either. 5 is a bit too big imo
She is like a Girlfriend with no issues.
There's a miku one? I'm sold.
Those people are so bloody interested in this no matter what they say. :)
It's really interesting hearing their reactions 😮
Woman's reaction like: Dynasty of woman is doomed
I think most interested in these Holograms are people very interested in technology as AI is sort of the trend right now.
I'd buy it just because I'm curious of how it works and what it can do.
Yea those dudes in blue definitely wanted one you can hear the hesitation in they're voice when they answer
In case anyone is wondering, it's called Gatebox
I really love your shirt Yuta. Where can I buy one?
So all of them accept the idea of a virtual fake partner but only if it was customized to their preference ( Idols, Male Anime characters, etc)
Yuta I'm sorry but you jumping into the frame at the start of the video killed me lol
I thought you'd tell them about the marriage and ask for opinions on that. Pleaseeee make a follow up video, yuta my man!
Oh wow good video man
Fist guy hit the mark, I would buy it simply because its anime. This is the future anyway, virtual assistant.
As an extension of the Apple and Google equivalent device, I might be interested. But only as a gimmick and not as a replacement to a real 3D person.
3:10 that girl in the middle and her smile is so damn cute. Having her is a million times better girlfriend than having that stupid, expensive and un-f*k-able Hologram girlfriend.
From New York to Japan love the cool vids....every man in the US is fascinated with Japanese girls✌
The limited number of animations and vocalisations means it would get boring really quickly.
If I ever saw one hologram of Asuka from Senran Kagura or Super Sonico I would definitely buy it. It would be awesome to have an interactive waifu in your room. I really DON'T think that is something creepy at all... I do have some anime figures in my gaming room and they are excellent for decoration and cool vibe. I don't see why an interactive hologram is weird or creepy. Sign me in!
how would it feel like to talk to a real anime girl too....
isn't there more english comments because of multiple factors like it's on CZcams, could be an english channel, and social media like reddit linking to the video?
Anime or not, it's hologram, a cool piece of tech/toy. Kinda like those Google Home or whatever similar products. I doubt the guys weren't interested. They said they don't "need" it, doesn't mean they don't "want" it, especially if it was 99% cheaper. At that price? Most people would say no.
Also, the guys will say no because you're filming and presenting it as a replacement of actual girlfriends. Like saying loners/otakus/losers who can't get girlfriends will want one.
"This could only be popular in japan." Clearly he hasn't been to the basements of 89% of American men.
Yuta said, there is a lot of the comments from strangers, but a majority comments are negative, I watched on FB video how some Japanese man merry with this hologram, mostly comments was negative.
It's funny to think that I've been following the development of this hologram box (gatebox) since 2016. I saw it somewhere in an article and thought it was interesting so I signed up for mailing list about the progress
And now almost 3 years later it's still popping up on the news
And now let that thing leak all your more intimate personal information to some companies for them to sell it to the highest bidder so they can advertise to you directly through it.
That's my opinion anyway.
"English speaking media outlets don't really do a good job explaining the context where those weird things exist."
You got that right. We don't call them Fake News for nothing.
Sounds more lazy than fake
Loving the man asking if you could get the girl as your favourite idol.
I'll buy one when they put Agumon on it. My favorite Digimon as my personal assistant? Yes please.
they should make a Gatebox child like Yui in SAO for marriend couples
Girl to the far left in the green jacket in the thumbnail is a cutie😍🤩😍🤩
Yuta, you weren't being honest here. You did not tell them the real reason why this story became so famous abroad, and why people were talking about it. It had nothing to do with the popularity of the character, the popularity of anime abroad, or interest in AI technology, as the people here seem to think, and you encouraged them to believe. The truth is that the story took off because there was a man who wanted to MARRY the character - not just ask it to turn off the lights, not have fun with AI technology, but actually have a *romantic relationship* with a hologram. This is about a man who was so badly socialized and so traumatized by the idea of real-life relationship with a woman that he took refuge in fantasy. THAT is the reason people paid attention, and if you had shown them the story that was in the Japan Times or shown them the interview with that man, they would have had VERY different reactions.
Come on. You can do MUCH better than this. This was very dishonest.
I want to press the buttons on your shirt, Yuta. 😂😂😂
0:56 the girl the gray jacket looks like she's taking this seriously. 4:58 this dude is funny
I just thought of this while watching the video because one of the girl said there isn't much anime outside of Japan, but I think it would be interesting to see what japanese people think about anime outside Japan, as on, that we have to pirate most of it because it just won't come to foreign countries (Specially before), if they think that more anime should come here, as well as if they think we lose part of the background and meaning on stuff like jokes, because it's lost after translation etc.
All boys have that look of
"I'll buy one."
I've never seen this before this video. It seems like a novelty that not many people would be interested in. It's like a weird anime google home or amazon alexa.
That seems fishy...
A Japanese product well known on the abroad, but not a single Japanese here didn't know about it?
That's weird...
Lots of westerners really find Japan to be quirky if not outright weird. That's what turns a lot of heads.
All kidding aside, I think it would be a pretty huge thing if say the Google assistant became so advanced that you could hold conversations with it. It could potentially even become so smart that you could use it as your own personal psychologist, teacher and who knows what else.
I agree! I think what makes this example seem "weird" is the idea of marrying the hologram. I think instead it was called it a personal assistant it would not have the same stigma applied. Although I think with Miku they would advertise a relationship, because of the target audience.
I wonder how many of them are being honest when they say "not interested".
That intro tho I thought you jump from the ceiling Ala spiderman lolol
just arrived back from japan.. the japanese shyness was really obvious..
I like the guy with the blue shirt and tan coat best. As for the hologram device? Foreigners would be more interested because it's like a novelty item.
This video just makes me wonder what people who aren't on the Internet all the time do with themselves.
Nice shirt Yuta
That one guy said that it was Japan against the world, or the like, but I have to disagree. Japan isn't fighting the world, Japan is part of the world. If anything the fact that Japan is so closed off compared to a lot of the rest of the world is a good thing for cultural preservation. We'll never be able to experience life under the Shogunate, but Japan still has it's cultural identity. You have cultural events constantly, even at schools. I can't speak for the rest of the world, but my school never had cultural festivals and neither does my town. We have the prerequisite holiday stuff, and a few celebrations of some european cultures, but nothing about the culture of my town,state, or even country.
And Japan isn't weird or strange, it's just unique to the people who live there. The first time you experience culture show from a foreign advertisement or something you're bound to have a reaction. That's normal. However, by the 9th time you see that ad the culture shock is gone and you just see an advertisement for shampoo or whatever. That's not weird at all. It's just dripping with the distinct essence of the people it's meant to market to. (inb4 anybody calls me a weeb: 1. No. 2. I can recognize a lot of problems that Japan has, I just choose to not focus on them so I can enjoy the good of Japan without being hindered. 3. I'm just passionate about my interests.)
That girl was soo right about foreign people more interested in anime characters than Japanese people.
I keep on hearing Hatsune Miku Hatsune Miku but the AI's name is not Hatsune Miku! It's Azumi Hikari! But Akihiko Kondo has Hatsune Miku version. This is Yuta's misplay
That's actually really cool. Maybe a bit far out there to think of it as a replacement for real human companionship, but the technology is rad.
A woman that you can treat like an actual object.
*Honey, where's my credit card?*
00:45 hey wait a minute, thats the guy to the left! in the clip
I find weird what a boy said that all "world" against Japan? And there are Japanese and "foreigners"? And where the people "comperatively" talking LESS each other then "foreigners" have no interest to have an AI-"friend"? They are living in another world - far, far away....
Does anyone really think it's less plausible that insanity is at play here?
That VSauce start tho
Wait, is this actually on sale outside Japan?
When did you film this video, a Japanese man has already married this ai, there’s a video about it.
The comments are mostly English because it’s so bizarre it goes viral.
"Forget Alexa, I've got Miku"
LOL... Man he asks them if they're interested in getting one... but let's be honest... who's gonna say yes in front of the entire world!? lol.... no way..
Maria Ozawa was famous than Miku.. who was Miku? didnt even know that hologram.
To be honest I'd think anyone trying to marry a hologram is weird, but a guy marrying a hologram 16 year old is just creepy.
"16"
I honestly don't get how this is creepy towards a hologram, especially with how teen nostalgic a lot of Japanese working people are.
She isn't real. that's the problem enough.
@@LoliconSamalik I think it's kinda fucked up for an adult to want to marry a 16-year-old, real or not. I don't think that needs a huge amount of explanation...
@@Sammie_Sorrelly Age does not matter when it comes to fictional characters dummy
@@Sammie_Sorrelly there's so much control you can have over fictional characters that I can make an adult looking character and say that she is 8 years old.
That's how little it matters. They don't have rights. Or lives. Everything about them is malable. So why give a crap?
@@LoliconSamalik Of course you can say anything about your character. The classic anime/manga trope is "Yes she's designed to look 8 years old but she's actually a hundred year old vampire/robot/ghost whatever so what you're about to see isn't *technically* cartoon child porn". Because characters don't just have written descriptions, they are designed also. A character like Miku is not only stated, but also *designed* to be a 16 year old. A kid. So yeah an adult who wants to have a romantic relationship with Miku is a creep as far as I'm concerned.
If I could change it to a male anime characters and it wasn't so damn expensive. I would buy it cause it can control the thermostat, lights, and other stuff. I don't even need a hologram just the voice.
