Imagine a place where one specific fish is part of one of the most ancient cultures of our planet. Here, several generations have worked day in and day out for something special and unique. Here is also the country where people and nature live in harmony. Over a hundred years breeders have developed a unique way to turn a certain fish species into a true work of art.
October, Japan.
It is harvest season. For most koi breeders this is the moment they have been looking forward to for an entire season.
For several months these fish have been delivered to mother nature high in the mountains.
Despite the daily checks by the breeder, it is not without risk. There is a lot at stake, not just this year's harvest, but also the many years of energy put into the care of these Nishikigoi.
Birds, bears, risk of disease and mother nature, all risks that the breeder must take into account.
Fortunately, breeders such as Tsuyoshi Kawakami have gained generations of experience, allowing them to develop their koi every year full of confidence.
I have been invited to one of the harvests of the Torazo family. In addition to Tsuyoshi Kawakami, his daughter Yuki and her husband Homare are helping to harvest these precious Koi fish.

I wish American documentaries would be more like this. This is so peaceful and calming to watch all the beautiful fish and scenery. No fake manufactured drama just to get peoples attention
Hello Michaela Peterson, may I thank you for these kind words? This is why I make these documentary’s
What documentaries are you watching because there are tons of good educational American made docs
@@TheKoiPartner thank you for this. I am 30yrs old and a new owner of Koi. I loved learning from this video and have to say your video captivated me with its simplicity. I was sad it even had to come to an end and hope one day I can go see these beautiful fish in Japan myself,
@@58847436 I love this video too
I totally agree all I want to lean about is the real every day life of these people and the fish of course
This is almost a commercial for serious koi enthusiasts but wow, I've never seen so many beautiful koi! I grew up in Hawaii and in the Ala Moana shopping center they had koi ponds, and when I was little, the koi were small, and as I grew, they grew. There were ones I got to know individually, and I liked to think they got to know me. Also, one time my mother and I sat on some grass by a pond that had koi in it (not Ala Moana center, another place) and my mom had her foot kind of close to the water, and a koi came up and tried to swallow her toe! It was so funny! Koi are so beautiful and adorable!
❤️ thank you for the nice comment
طم..
having visited Japan myself more than 50 times over the last 40 years to buy koi I still found this video interesting and informative.
Koi truly are 'Swimming Jewels'. Magical, too. Watching Koi swim in a pond releases all tension from a person and the cares of the day, slip away until you're surrounded by a sense of peace and serenity.
Nia the Gulf Gypsy thanks 🙏
And they're just stinkin' cute!
I appreciate how careful and gentle all of the handlers are with these beautiful fish. Koi can be very active and they have a lot of strength
Thank you Laura for watching and reaching out. Best Yvo
For some reason, I find it very satisfying seeing people lift up the fish gently from underneath with the koi not struggling too much. Maybe because so many other images of people holding/catching fish are much rougher and more chaotic (fishing for consumption, for example). I love how people get attached to these fish. We had one year in a Chinese public garden where a river otter got in and took many of these very old and specifically beloved fish.
Thank you so much for watching and reaching out ❤️
I never seen any koi fish that big. They are doing an amazing job.
I agree! I haven't seen any that big either and it is impressive!

Over the last few years, I have entered into the realm of fish keeping. Ultimately my goal is to enter into the realm of keeping Koi! I am learning all I can about Koi before I begin the amazing journey of keeping Koi! The Koi Partner's videos are excellent in providing background and ideology surrounding these incredible creatures!
I never thought a documentary about koi fish can be so interesting
Thank you! Part 2 is now online
I so appreciate your documentary. I admire the passion of the Japanese breeders. ❤️
This documentary was the one that really knitted down my decision to progress in this industry. Thank you YVO, you played a pivotal role in helping me achieve my dream.
🙏🫶
What an amazing video. I could not stop watching all these beautiful Koi. Many thanks to the wonderful people of Japan for sharing their beautiful art with the world.
Rob and Chris Sweet thank you my friend. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment
love the documentary, I always find the Japanese koi breeders a massive inspiration for my own koi endeavors.
Thank you Ranger Homesteading! 😃
Koi fish are my favorite kind of fish.. it's great to see their history and the Japanese way of breeding the koi. You get a like!
Beautiful. I once stuck my hand in a garden pond with Kois. They instantly came for petting. They are cute little creatures.
I absolutely just love Japan 🇯🇵 so much Beautiful culture and care. Much love from USA 🇺🇸
Hello Jeremy Wendelin, great to have you here! Welcome! 🇺🇸
I love seeing koi fishes whenever I get into the fish store , but this one ☝️ really delighted me even watching for almost an hour . It gives you enough perspective on what can you have in mind while watching this . Amazing I could say , never had seen as big as this one ,never even thought that they can grow bigger . Thanks for this very informative documentary 😉
I worked in a shopping center in Florida. There was a koi pond in front of our store. I would come to work early in the morning so I could spend time watching them. They were so sweet. They would come to the surface and nibble on the food.
The fact that these fishes are so calm and this video too. I really enjoy watching.
I find koi very attractive .. It's so amazing to watch them..
Thank you for sharing the beauty and hard work of the Japanese koi breeders and their culture.
This short documentary was absolutely educational and beautiful I plan on sharing this short documentary with my family
Such an honor to take part in a harvest. Beautiful documentary. Arigatōgozaimashita
Thanks for filming koi fish, it helps me to understand their patterns. I like to paint koi fish so I get fresh ideas by watching your videos.
Glad to help
I was very impressed with everything about this video, the people, the fish, how things are run, it was fantastic. Thank you for all your efforts in doing this.
Gorgeous! I finally finished my 21 ft pond, I don't have any Kohaku yet, got Sanke and Showa and some Doitsu and Metallics, just need a beautiful Kohaku.
Loved the Sir David Attenborough impersonation at the start 🐟😎👌
nice koi...nice videos...amazing fish in the world..koi never die
Outstanding job... great to see the different families producing beautiful koi
Hello, i am from Southeast Asia (San Antonio, Zambales Philippines). Growing up near the ocean all my life, I've always been fascinated of the beautiful and amazing living things in the ocean!
Cool :) thanks for leaving a comment
Thanks for the kind reply, my family moved to San Diego, California in 1979. I still see kois' in some Japanese restaurant.
Glad to see I made the cut! Great vid. See you soon 👍
Quality Nishikigoi Ty 👌 see you soon Tim
The Koi Partner All Japan?
Quality Nishikigoi yup, and then Niigata after the AJKS.. see you there?
The Koi Partner yes of course, see you then. 🍺
Your fish are amazing.
The Koi were beautiful, some were out standing. Well done video.
Thank you Sharon!
This documentary is brillant and is far better than what we can watch on television, especially in France. I really encourage you to do other long format videos like this, it would certainly have a huge success
Thank you Vincent!
What a delightful & informative video. These KOI are stunningly beautiful. I can't imagine how much hard dedicated work it takes to accomplish these amazing fish. Thank you so much for making this possible for the rest of the world to share.
Beautiful story of the Koi. I just love them. I had one I raised in a 39 gallon tank. I lost her when our cannister filter malfunctioned and the debris suffocated her. Loved your film.
Absolutely amazing film! Hands down the best koi related videos I have ever seen! You are absolutely awesome at what you do! Thank you for entertaining us hobbyists with such great content! One day I hope to go to Japan and see these breeder facilities.
Learned something about how Koi are kept. The Farm pones are really something. Beautiful Koi are nice to look at and enjoy. Thank you.
Everyone gangsta until magikarp evolves to gyarados.
You made my day 😂🙏
more like from magikarp to goldeen
keekekeke kekekeke xD
Done❤️
Why?
This channel created a fellow koi enthusiast & lover. Definitely want my own collection.
Welcome to the channel 😃
Absolutely stunning! These koi are like divine creatures! Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
So beautiful! It feels so good deep inside to see the Koi handled with such care. The handlers understand the flow of the needs of the Koi, like doing “Tai Chi” together, creating a connection between the care given by the handler and the fish, thank you...
Thank you Opal for watching 🙏
Those fish are worth a lot of money.
Can you please explain that feeling you have deep inside 😍😍. (It's day 6 of Coronavirus lockdown and my mind is in overdrive)
really beatiful animals i never appreciated how much care goes into them
Atleast they are being gentle with them placing them. Some fish breeders just toss n throw them from tank to tank. It may be a fish but its a living thing that has life and feeling of hurt and stress.
Dicey Dutch Angel Dragon that’s because they’re expensive lol
KamJohn their special treatments for the fish are what make the fish expensive. 4 seasonal Special ponds, indoor ponds with heater, the caregivers, food, etc 🙏
I guess you're a vegetarian...
if you have ever hand-fed any kind of fish for a good while, you can grow an emotional bond to it. A fish acts like a puppy.
Whether it's a Betta in a bowl, or a catfish you've been fishing for, or a thousands-dollar Koi.
@@k.johnson2722 I would imagine there is a bit of fondness and respect for the animal too. Kindness isnt simply based on dollar value here. At least I hope not!
So lovely to see a koi fish in tht plce! Wnted to work there! Coz koi is a living treasure! Super love it😍💖
I have never seen koi fishes as big as these ones ,everything is so beautiful in this video, thanks
The respect and gentleness of this video is stunning. Thank you for sharing. In future videos you might point out exactly what makes one koi better or more acceptable for show.
Oh wow they have the pattern like a huge clown fish. Pretty cool. I also noticed how calm the fish were when they were taken out in the backs. They are used to being handled. None of them are flaying nor trying to get out.
@The Koi Partner just wanted to thank you very much for your channel ,my father and our family took part in his hobby of Koi for many years my father has 17 years since he passed for my self I as well love Koi aswell Ive been trying to get back into the love of the hobby but funds have been hard but with your videos to inspire me Im sure I will succeed in reaching my gold in continuing my fathers passion , stay blessed and great success to you and your family
Thank you so much Roger for your nice feedback. I hope you can continue the hobby of your father, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me :)
@@TheKoiPartner will do friend hopefully you have time to answer my questions ,love and peace
Great documentary on Koi breeding. I'm amaze by the amount of time to breed and of course the majestic colors of these fish. Well done.
this is worth it to watch sir. i've enjoyed so much till the end of this video. I also love keeping koi. i have a small concrete pond in our house in philippines 🇵🇭. .
Thank you 🙏

Hi jose Wong, thank you 😊
Very nice video and educational. Very good effort!
Koi fish are so beautiful, UGO3 is amazed at you 😍🐟❤
I love the way they take care of the fish they seem like a gold fish
Thats true Iban, thanks
TRUE WORK OF ART in a polybag with just enough water to keep it barely alive to book hefty profit. 👌👌
Amazing ! I've never seen such huge Koi !!
I loved the video, loved the KOIs and can feel the love of the people in the handling of the KOIs. I am totally amazed!
Thank you mister Stealth
I'm a Japanese but I didn't know how they take care of Koi. Nishikigoi is popular among foreign people. I hope this Japanese traditional culture is loved all over the world like Anime.
Fantastic Video~ I love these swimming jeweles... Wondrous creatures..gentle are the handlers- Thank you for sharing!
Swimming jewels..... Love it 🐟❤️
I enjoyed every second of this video. Thank you
