As a Filipino there's no need to worry about dating a Japanese girl/guy, culture and language difference is not a hindrance, because as we Filipinos can make adjustment in differences.
Yeah but it’s be best if the Filipino is not the only one making adjustments. We are usually the ones who do it’s be nice if they do the same with our language. Plus it improves communication
Filipina married to a Japanese guy for 3 years and we dated for almost 2 years prior. His background is he studied for years in Australia and he is fluent in English (now I am learning more Japanese and he is learning Cebuano), so our language barrier is nonexistent. The cultural differences and his different approach on romance and his love language were a huge challenge in our relationship. We just communicated and communicated. I am happy that both of our families are supportive of our relationship and even tease us to have kids every single time we talk to them. My husband and I now are in a stage of our relationship where we are building our unique world especially on how we treat and communicate with each other….even mixing Japanese-English-Tagalog-Cebuano that sounds like some funny made up language.
@@iliveforjinyoungspeach7141 we actually met on Tinder and he sounded so serious (he wanted to practice English and I wanted to practice spoken Japanese for my job at that time) at first and the sudden confession from him shocked me the most. I didn't know he was already courting me 1 month of our "language exchange". I thought he just wanted to practice English with me that time. I could be quite dense to guys' emotions at that time though. Not a problem now, 4 yrs in our marriage and we're getting a lot better with each other as a married couple.
This was an interesting one! My bf is Japanese and I’m Filipino and we both embrace each other’s cultures. He can cook my food and I can cook his. He can recognize Tagalog phrases and I can pick up some Japanese phrases. It’s all about being interested in the other. I feel like these answers were a little strange, because it almost felt as if they believed it would be hard just based on different cultures and food. That’s something you work on together - it’s not make or break.
I think it's also the way the questions were phrased. Already implying that there's something to be "worried about" instead of "what do you like about Filipinos?" Interview questions are already negative and problematic. :( It's sad
Filipinos are just adaptable. they are willing to learn the language, culture and sometimes even other religion. Because working overseas is an opportunity to earn more money for the family
I met a Japanese girl in Hiroshima way back 2018, we were both delegates for a peace conference. She confessed to me and asked if she could be my girlfriend. I kinda felt pressured since we've only been talking for less than a week. I didn't know what to do during that time because I was too loyal to my Filipina crush in school. I told her that we should work on our friendship first so that we'll be able to know each other better. I guess she didn't understand what I mean and felt rejected instead. I tried reaching her out on LINE, Facebook, and Instagram but she wouldn't reply. Based on my experience, I think Japanese women are too aggressive when it comes to confessing their feelings. I also think that they are workaholics. I thought about it when she asked me and I was worried that long distance relationship wouldn't work out if she can't dedicate enough time to communicate with me.
I've heard that Japanese men don't really open up to women like how Filipinos or men from other cultures do it. That's why some Japanese women tend to make the first move.
well, me, im a filipino, and i have a Japanese girlfriend and shes in Japan, she made the first move and we are 15 months now, i want to say, not all the girls worried a lot, but believe me guys, Japanese are all not the same that worries the culture, it is really depends on how you treat her or him and she or he will be interested in your culture as well, so dont worry 😉
The way I see it, there is more Japanese guy date or married to filipina ( many factors on this like insecurity of Japanese guys can’t date fellow Japanese female or loyalty’s.) but what about Japanese women dating white guys? They also have different cultures and languages. It seems that skin color and backgrounds is the issue for Japanese women
Personally I have Filipino friends and relative that are married to Japanese. Culture and language barriers can be overcome when two people with different cultures and languages work it out in the name of love. Filipinos can adopt easily to anything whether cultures or languages. Truth be told though, most Filipinos and Filipinas are sweet, caring, thoughtful, and loving. We live by the saying love conquers all.
The interview was so much fun! I'm smiling throughout the video. ☺️ The punctuality of Filipinos are usually laughed at here, which is sad. We have to change this mindset and also be considerate towards the person waiting for us, not wasting their time, effort, and intentions like the way we don't want it done to us, right? To be honest, if a man or a woman really likes you, they would respect your personal space and decisions no matter what their nationality is, especially if you're not dating them yet, like the case with that lady who were in a camping with a Pinoy, just my 2 cents though.
Would most japanese guys be ready for a filipina? Filipina girls are a totally different breed of woman when compared to japanese girls, they are laughing out loud instead of giggling, they are noisy, they like sex, they like to kiss and cuddle and they just love to eat. They are more like sturdy coffee cups compared to the fragile teacups that are japanese girls.
Most of the Japanese respondents were cautious, I think it's national sense. First, if Japanese have more opportunities for international exchange, Secondly if we have more exchanges with Filipinos, their perspectives may change.
US-born-and-raised Filipino here. Although I myself am not married to a Japanese (my wife is actually Filipina but could pass for Japanese or Chinese by looking at her), I have Japanese friends of both sexes. And from my experience, they seem to enjoy the presence of being around Filipinos during their time studying abroad out here in Hawaii. And they are quite common in our area. Aside from being polite and punctual, they had quite the addiction of experiencing our way of fun. And to this day, we still miss our hangout days since they’re no longer here in the U.S. but we keep in contact with each other for all time.
Hi Mana! This topic is interesting. If I were to date a Japanese woman, I will invest time to learn your language to set a foundation for communication. (if she can speak english, it will be good) I believe other differences can be easily worked on if we can understand each other better. Culture, food, religion, & other barriers will not gonna be difficult to overcome once communication has been properly established. Stay safe there in Japan 😊
My youngest Tiya is married to a Japanese who is a direct descendant of Mōri Motonari ❤ As someone who is indigenous waray filipina, i want to marry a Japanese man with a great personality ❤
There are Filipino-Japanese married couples that I watch here on UA-cam. It seems that they had successful relationships. In my perspective, understanding each other's culture will lessen the worries. Therefore, if given a chance to date a Japanese woman, I will promise to be more understanding and we’ll immerse ourselves in each other's culture.
I agree. Filipinos are understanding, patience, flexible, adaptive, caring, loving, thoughtful, polite, we can learn anything from them also how we should treat them according to their likings. We can also cook their food for them. 😅The way we handle our own siblings and parents. We are also serious about relations, jobs, businesses, relations to anything and God.😍
I wanted to go to Japan someday. Currently learning the language and their culture. If given a chance to date a japanese girl then why not. I love this content by the way. Being worried about dating someone from another country will always be there. But I think learning and understanding each other's culture is one of your best bet. Looking forward to see you Mana-san 😊.
I am a Filipina and my Japanese friend confessed that he likes me, but after confessions I think 2 days after that I still don't know if our relationship have a label 😅 if we still friend or more than friend?? Like that even though I said that like him too 😂 maybe he's awkward on the situation that change after confession.
I'm currently dating a Japanese guy right now, for 4 months and counting, I really thought he's fluent in English because when he sent me a message it was written in English lol, then we meet up and boom, we just used Google translator HAHAHA because I don't know how to speak Japanese at all and he doesn't know how to speak English either 🤣 but he was really eager to talk to me using translator 😅... But hopefully in the long run we will be able to break the language barrier by learning each language 😊, I'm still working on it. 😅😅...
Fact: japanese and other east Asia only prefer their own race than others, most east Asian has a pride on their own features but they admire western faces more. So east Asians or japanese marrying Filipino and South East Asians is pretty hard compare to their own race and Caucasian because that's how Asia works. So don't put your hopes up, because you will not want the truth. Me a Filipino half Chinese managed to get rejected multiple times. Until I knew that east Asians mostly preferred their own race in culture. But most of Asians go to western country just to show admiration to them and marry Caucasian
Good evening Miss Mana, congratulations for 500k subs, everyone feel the same way about dating a foreigner, or whatever where country they are, just be careful and patience is should be present. Not gonna lie about their opinions, because some of them are actually true, like Filipinos being too sweet, too much close, friendly, but just be careful of choosing a person. Stay safe po.
I love that one of the girls brought up punctuality. As a filipino and a punctual person, I hate it when my own kabayans are late to an appointment, even birthday parties, lunch, dinner, or just any event. I just hate this fact about my own culture.
Filipinos and Japanese are the Perfect Asian Region match. Filipinos are Forgotten small Latinos of Asia and yet Malayans - Islanders all at once while Japanese are Independent own unique Culture, traits and history. Both are Strong adaptable flexible mix of Western commerce and traditions. Also, Japan's declining aging population while the Philippines rising population with global Industrial Recognition will meet a perfect balance. It should be recognized and be promoted socially from both ends.
I love all sushi, samurai armor, and the robot voice that says “playstation” on ps2 commercials. This is why I want all my Filipino friends to visit Japan. Your culture is amazing and I hope you have a positive experience with the many filipino people you’ll encounter!
Have fun watching this interview 😅.. On 3 months dating a Japanese Guy and all said in this video is kinda bullseye😅 to what worries my partner now.. But we are working together to overcome these , language or cultural differences..
Hi Mana! This is your first video that I’ve watched so far and looking forward to watch for more. I like the content of this video and it’s really an interesting topic for me because even I, I want to know what Japanese people worry or think about dating us Filipinos. I had a Japanese boyfriend before, we are both foreigners in the foreign land, and I don’t know what worries him about me because he’s always considerate. And one thing worried me as a Filipina dated a Japanese guy was that, long-term relationship is not advisable for these two nationals. You know how Japanese people are very workaholic and they couldn’t give enough time to their partners. But I can say that, Filipinos and Japanese are a good match as well if they are together.
Mana, there seems to be a lot of Filipino- Japanese celebrities in Japan! What made them standout and successful? What difficulties have they went through?
Filipino American: I grew up with the idea that someday I’d marry a woman from Japan for some reason. Their elegance, demure and devotion was so appealing to me at a young age..Never happened. I eventually married someone else, but I found they were extremely shy or that I didn’t appeal to them.
Wow, you're now halfway thru the golden button. Congratulations. Anyway i can understand their feelings because first of all, they don't know anything about filipino people. Then the culture differences and the language barrier. The good idea is to ask japanese who had gone to the philippines like you mana since you already have an idea about the philippines, its people and the culture.
Cool video I'm Filipino my wife is japanese we are from Seattle I think it's just a preference thing or how you click with each other lol just my thoughts we've been together for 11 yrs 😁🤟
I realized when foreigners talk about dating on Filipinos, they are playing safe with their answers, but when you ask Filipinos about dating foreign guys/ladies we are very interested ☺️ we really love to date with foreigners
"We really love to date with foreigners" Our mixed culture especially the Spanish and American influences have some contributions to it but I believe we are mainly influenced by the media. We see big celebrities mga mestiza/mestizo, chinito/chinita in movies, tv shows, commercials and magazines. We see them as having wealth and prestige over those who looks local and darker skin. This also why skin whitening products are big in the Philippines.
I'm sorry if you feel that way but most of us just want to relate with other people. We are very resilient and hard workers. We just lack great leaders.
@@hoyjude8902 Nothing wrong with your dark skin. I like natural skin complex of Filipinas than the Filipina's using glutathione whitening cream products. Just saying facts 🤗
Filipinos & Filipinas are way more open and adopt more easily to dating foreigners than the typical Japanese. That's why in almost every country there are Filipinos living or working there. Correct me if I'm wrong but in Japan singles dating is not a big thing like in the Western countries or even in the Philippines. That's why they do group dates in Japan.
Hi Mana san. Been teaching English to many Japanese students. I can say that Japanese people are so kind. Shy at first but when you get to know them better, the conversation becomes more and more fun. Our Eikaiwa class is RareJob, Inc. The main office is in Shibuya. All Teachers are Filipino. We get to share culture and language to each other Oh How I love Japan. Can't wait to go there soon.
I might be off topic here, I'm Mexican American (US born with Mexican roots) and I would love to get to know more Asian people. I'd like to meet and someday settle with a Japanese girl, since their culture revolves around respect and honor and they are more reserved, kind of like me, just calm and for the past few months I've been into Japanese stuff and talking a dive at it. I've been able to talk to a few Filipinas and Vietnamese girls but just online only and they seem like good people. ☺
09:07 - Buko pandan and halo-halo caught my eyes haha! the interviewers are so engaging and fun! I' head over heels with Yuki Ishikawa, a Japanese volleyball player and it does make sense that it would be difficult for me to date him or any Japanese guy because of culture and language difference. I'm gonna start studying the language and culture then :D #hopeful
I really love to date Japanese women like you Manna , to know you more and about Japanese women’s likes 👍 and dislikes on dating men no matter what culture, race and beliefs they have , I only believe in the universal language of “ love “ . It’s my dream wish to meet you personally in the future take care 😊
At the end of the day, it's really about the cultural differences i guess. But still, it's a good experience for everyone to learn about the culture of other countries. Additional knowledge if i may. Hehe. Hope you can also check our channel, mostly about pinoys here in japan, house tours of filipinos whose dream homes have already come true! Thank you!
Depends on the person you're dating not all the same characters and not all can play guitars you can try but be sure you know the person not just random dating
As a becoming 20 yrs old Nearly Younger Adult Man. I love Japan and I love Japanese food and also thier beautiful culture, Also I love Anime, even Love Stories 😅. I will do my best to learn Japanese Language my 2nd Favorite Language soon. I hope I could meet a Japanese Girl In God's Perfect time 😊
Interesting video , Its interesting how many Japanese react to dating a Filipino its understandable that language , attitude and one culture is a bit of a barrier to many Japanese . However this can broken once they get to know a Filipino in person and that many Filipino have different attitudes while still maintain cultural identity . Lots of love and blessings.
I think the most worrying is the culture & belief because we do have our differences. But in order for us to communicate, we have to learn the language on both sides for us to have a better understanding. I do understand that girl says in the video that Filipino guys are aggressive but I think that's the way a Filipino guy how to express his feeling towards a girl like her so I guess she didn't find that nice on her part. The better way to approach this, as Filipinos we need to know or learn more better about Japanese culture, likewise for Japanese to learn more about Filipino culture as well.
I'm with this Filipina-Japanese girl and the biggest hurdle I'd say between us is the language barrier, culture, and lack of common interest. Btw, Pinoy naman ako, pure blooded. Although I can see that she's into me (she hinted me sooo many times), I'm not so sure if I should continue pursuing her because of the said hurdles earlier (not to mention the long distance). Even though half pinay sya, she's very "Japanized", barely knows Tagalog and our culture. She's born and raised there, and her mom I guess didn't taught her their Filipino roots that much. At first, yah it's fun, we've talked about our differences, I serenaded her with my guitar, among other things. Deep inside I know I like her too, but I'm hesitating. The language barrier is just a deal breaker, because I know how important communication is between couples and even this basic understanding of each other is already a problem between us. When we're calling, she can barely understand what I say (gotta rely much on Google translate). Culturally speaking, she's ok for me since she has visited the Philippines for several times (that's how I met her, ka baranggay lang namin yung tinuluyan nya).
This may kind of make a different image of filipinos from the rest but it could've been more fun to see their reactions if they see filipino celebrity or just attractive filipino images to them and like make it interesting haha. edit: actually, when it comes to filipinos learning a language, words or verbally it's easier?? because many are open not just the extroverted but the introverted ones too that they are so "makulit" and lively to their small close groups, verbal and body language on different people are quite fine to understand, so writing in different cultures would be where the due diligence is
Man, I came here looking up "whats it like being a Filipino in Japan" which originally sparked my interest because of how my aunt married and lives in Japan now. This went 0 to 100 immediately.
Well, it's a human nature I guess for most people really don't like to go out from their confort zone. But, being a Filipino man like my self, we usually don't worry much having a date from other nationalities. We always like to explore the unknown and when things not going as we expected? We just simply chuckle our selves and shy away and say "maybe next time." 😌😏
Having different cultures, language, food etc, can make the relationship fun! Imagine theres so much things to learn together. You learn about each others differences.
I am half Japanese meeting different women is based on preferences and openness. Many Japanese adopted American culture so is also different culture and languages
I enjoyed watching your video my friend 💯👍❤️❤️❤️ i like you the way how you talk, watching from Manila host I love you 🥰🥰🥰 keep safe always and enjoy, salamat dahil nagustohan mo ang Philippines and most of all,yong mga taga Pinas😘🥰 thanks again, God bless you and your family
Mana pilipino from Philippines dating Japanese in Japan that's so far a world a part in culture. you should ask again if a Filipino working in Japan for a while ask a Japanese out on a date. if Filipino already working in Japan they already know how to speak nihongo and they already experienced living in japan
I'm quite sure if a Filipino guy, would ask a Japanese lady for a date...and they were in Japan, I'm sure of that Filipino guy can speak nihonggo or even write and can communicate well with that Japanese lady. As you observe most filipinos when going abroad have orientation about the basic language and culture of the country. And most of the time we adopt the culture like being locals. So I don't think there would be a language barrier anymore..maybe just the culture anyway. Just my thoughts anyway...congrats mana for the 500k subs...God bless you always.
Correct sir. Learning the basic before going abroad.🙂that's why Filipinos are so flexible, patience and adaptable to any culture or any weather. There are Filipinos anywhere around the world.
I am open and it is fun until they make me feel bad about what i like and grew up with. Japanese and filipino different but i am glad we are still learning from each other. ❤
It's a very intriguing and interesting question. I think, most of their answers are quite true like coming late(Filipino time), aggressive is not the right term(too friendly). But for foods, some of us can eat Japanese food. Because we are open to try different cuisines. I have a friend who had a Japanese GF before. So, I think it's possible for Japanese and Filipino to go together, they just need to settle their differences and make things work out between them as a couple.
Well if I we’re to date a Japanese I would only worry about how can I make her see that language barrier and culture difference not hard between us. Because to me, I really like to learn about the culture of Japan and I’m learning 日本語 right now. I also have Japanese friends so if the culture and language is to be the problem then it’s not with me because I am very much aware of culture and language in Japan 😅😊 In the future I want to work and live there and be with my friends. I’m just afraid of dating because i don’t know if they will like me enough, but I tell you I can pretty much keep up with everything so don’t worry 😂😊.
Many filipinos are tri- lingual, we speak filipino(tagalog based), our local dialect and english and would easier for us to learn a fourth one and japaanese language is avery interesting to learn.
As a Filipino there's no need to worry about dating a Japanese girl/guy, culture and language difference is not a hindrance, because as we Filipinos can make adjustment in differences.
Easy to say if you can speak the language.
@@jerryjazzbo2845 we can just search in google
@@jerryjazzbo2845 it's easy.. you just need to dedicate some time learning the language.
Yeah but it’s be best if the Filipino is not the only one making adjustments. We are usually the ones who do it’s be nice if they do the same with our language. Plus it improves communication

Hindi nmn po lahat.
Filipinos and Japanese are the Perfect Asian Region match. Filipinos are Forgotten small Latinos of Asia and yet Malayans - Islanders all at once while Japanese are Independent own unique Culture, traits and history. Both are Strong adaptable flexible mix of Western commerce and traditions. Also, Japan's declining aging population while the Philippines rising population with global Industrial Recognition will meet a perfect balance. It should be recognized and be promoted socially from both ends.
Magandang hapon mana-chan congrats for reach 500k subs 🎉🎊☺️ I wish I can go in japan soon 😊😘
Thank you so much!!! I reached 500k because of you all!!😍
I love all sushi, samurai armor, and the robot voice that says “playstation” on ps2 commercials.
This is why I want all my Filipino friends to visit Japan.
Your culture is amazing and I hope you have a positive experience with the many filipino people you’ll encounter!
Have fun watching this interview 😅.. On 3 months dating a Japanese Guy and all said in this video is kinda bullseye😅 to what worries my partner now.. But we are working together to overcome these , language or cultural differences..
Hi Mana! This is your first video that I’ve watched so far and looking forward to watch for more. I like the content of this video and it’s really an interesting topic for me because even I, I want to know what Japanese people worry or think about dating us Filipinos. I had a Japanese boyfriend before, we are both foreigners in the foreign land, and I don’t know what worries him about me because he’s always considerate. And one thing worried me as a Filipina dated a Japanese guy was that, long-term relationship is not advisable for these two nationals. You know how Japanese people are very workaholic and they couldn’t give enough time to their partners. But I can say that, Filipinos and Japanese are a good match as well if they are together.
Thank you for loving our Country and culture po ☺️💚
Mana, there seems to be a lot of Filipino- Japanese celebrities in Japan! What made them standout and successful? What difficulties have they went through?
Hello manabee... this is my 1st comment... i'm always watching your video... god bless...
Filipino American: I grew up with the idea that someday I’d marry a woman from Japan for some reason. Their elegance, demure and devotion was so appealing to me at a young age..Never happened. I eventually married someone else, but I found they were extremely shy or that I didn’t appeal to them.
Wow, you're now halfway thru the golden button. Congratulations. Anyway i can understand their feelings because first of all, they don't know anything about filipino people. Then the culture differences and the language barrier. The good idea is to ask japanese who had gone to the philippines like you mana since you already have an idea about the philippines, its people and the culture.
Cool video
I'm Filipino my wife is japanese we are from Seattle I think it's just a preference thing or how you click with each other lol just my thoughts we've been together for 11 yrs 😁🤟
I realized when foreigners talk about dating on Filipinos, they are playing safe with their answers, but when you ask Filipinos about dating foreign guys/ladies we are very interested ☺️ we really love to date with foreigners
"We really love to date with foreigners" Our mixed culture especially the Spanish and American influences have some contributions to it but I believe we are mainly influenced by the media. We see big celebrities mga mestiza/mestizo, chinito/chinita in movies, tv shows, commercials and magazines. We see them as having wealth and prestige over those who looks local and darker skin. This also why skin whitening products are big in the Philippines.
Filipino love citizenship from rich countries so that they can help there family back home
I'm sorry if you feel that way but most of us just want to relate with other people. We are very resilient and hard workers. We just lack great leaders.
@@waterlily2839_chua are you insulting us?
@@hoyjude8902 Nothing wrong with your dark skin. I like natural skin complex of Filipinas than the Filipina's using glutathione whitening cream products. Just saying facts 🤗
I love you to Pluto and back Mana!
Haha all Lang nauna dito yaha!!!! I love you MANA!!!!
Love you too:)
Filipinos & Filipinas are way more open and adopt more easily to dating foreigners than the typical Japanese. That's why in almost every country there are Filipinos living or working there. Correct me if I'm wrong but in Japan singles dating is not a big thing like in the Western countries or even in the Philippines. That's why they do group dates in Japan.
Yoo Arigato for inspiration video
Big fan here from Philippines 😁😁
Hi Mana san. Been teaching English to many Japanese students. I can say that Japanese people are so kind. Shy at first but when you get to know them better, the conversation becomes more and more fun.
Our Eikaiwa class is RareJob, Inc. The main office is in Shibuya.
All Teachers are Filipino. We get to share culture and language to each other
Oh How I love Japan. Can't wait to go there soon.
I might be off topic here, I'm Mexican American (US born with Mexican roots) and I would love to get to know more Asian people. I'd like to meet and someday settle with a Japanese girl, since their culture revolves around respect and honor and they are more reserved, kind of like me, just calm and for the past few months I've been into Japanese stuff and talking a dive at it. I've been able to talk to a few Filipinas and Vietnamese girls but just online only and they seem like good people. ☺
its okey to date like you mana its not hard to teach how to speak tagalog 😘🇵🇭mahal na kita🤫🤫🤫🤗🤗🤗
09:07 - Buko pandan and halo-halo caught my eyes haha! the interviewers are so engaging and fun! I' head over heels with Yuki Ishikawa, a Japanese volleyball player and it does make sense that it would be difficult for me to date him or any Japanese guy because of culture and language difference. I'm gonna start studying the language and culture then :D #hopeful
I really love to date Japanese women like you Manna , to know you more and about Japanese women’s likes 👍 and dislikes on dating men no matter what culture, race and beliefs they have , I only believe in the universal language of “ love “ . It’s my dream wish to meet you personally in the future take care 😊
Hello Mana. Nice to watch your vlogs again.
Thank you ☺️
I really like your videos by the way🥰 Congrats for getting 1.1K subs!!!
Full support is always here
Congrats mana cute 😍500k
私が日本人男性とデートするとき、私の唯一の関心事は言語ですが、男性が英語を話す方法を知っていれば、それは大丈夫だと思います。日本語が少し話せます。日本人男性は思いやりがあり、他人のことを考えています。それが私が好きなことです。
At the end of the day, it's really about the cultural differences i guess. But still, it's a good experience for everyone to learn about the culture of other countries. Additional knowledge if i may. Hehe. Hope you can also check our channel, mostly about pinoys here in japan, house tours of filipinos whose dream homes have already come true! Thank you!
Nice vid mana I love your vid
Thank you!!
Depends on the person you're dating not all the same characters and not all can play guitars you can try but be sure you know the person not just random dating
I think a different culture between two in a relationship is interesting and endless discoveries!
So cute mana ❤️😘
As a becoming 20 yrs old Nearly Younger Adult Man. I love Japan and I love Japanese food and also thier beautiful culture, Also I love Anime, even Love Stories 😅. I will do my best to learn Japanese Language my 2nd Favorite Language soon. I hope I could meet a Japanese Girl In God's Perfect time 😊
I will say one of the cool things about filipine culture is the adaptability of the citizens in other countries due to its expansive trade history
Interesting video , Its interesting how many Japanese react to dating a Filipino its understandable that language , attitude and one culture is a bit of a barrier to many Japanese . However this can broken once they get to know a Filipino in person and that many Filipino have different attitudes while still maintain cultural identity . Lots of love and blessings.
"they are not punctual" hits😂
I enjoy watching video talking abt Philippines, nothing Im just happy❤️
I think the most worrying is the culture & belief because we do have our differences. But in order for us to communicate, we have to learn the language on both sides for us to have a better understanding. I do understand that girl says in the video that Filipino guys are aggressive but I think that's the way a Filipino guy how to express his feeling towards a girl like her so I guess she didn't find that nice on her part. The better way to approach this, as Filipinos we need to know or learn more better about Japanese culture, likewise for Japanese to learn more about Filipino culture as well.
I'm with this Filipina-Japanese girl and the biggest hurdle I'd say between us is the language barrier, culture, and lack of common interest. Btw, Pinoy naman ako, pure blooded. Although I can see that she's into me (she hinted me sooo many times), I'm not so sure if I should continue pursuing her because of the said hurdles earlier (not to mention the long distance). Even though half pinay sya, she's very "Japanized", barely knows Tagalog and our culture. She's born and raised there, and her mom I guess didn't taught her their Filipino roots that much. At first, yah it's fun, we've talked about our differences, I serenaded her with my guitar, among other things. Deep inside I know I like her too, but I'm hesitating. The language barrier is just a deal breaker, because I know how important communication is between couples and even this basic understanding of each other is already a problem between us. When we're calling, she can barely understand what I say (gotta rely much on Google translate). Culturally speaking, she's ok for me since she has visited the Philippines for several times (that's how I met her, ka baranggay lang namin yung tinuluyan nya).
マナちゃん50万人すごすぎる！！！おめでとうです！！🥳🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
サムネのマナちゃんも可愛すぎるし、動画内のマナちゃんも毎回可愛い！！英語難しくて理解できない時もあるけど、マナちゃんだからちょっとでも見てる！！サンエン台湾もたまに見てるよ！🥺
ありがとうございます🥺🤍🤍🤍
サムネ変えましたね！！🥰
love you mana ☺️❤️🥰
I have a cousin (filipino) in Tokyo. He is a boxing trainer there. His wife is japanese and they've been together for years now.
This may kind of make a different image of filipinos from the rest but it could've been more fun to see their reactions if they see filipino celebrity or just attractive filipino images to them and like make it interesting haha.
edit: actually, when it comes to filipinos learning a language, words or verbally it's easier?? because many are open not just the extroverted but the introverted ones too that they are so "makulit" and lively to their small close groups, verbal and body language on different people are quite fine to understand, so writing in different cultures would be where the due diligence is
Man, I came here looking up "whats it like being a Filipino in Japan" which originally sparked my interest because of how my aunt married and lives in Japan now. This went 0 to 100 immediately.
マナちゃんの動画📹でフィリピンを紹介されてから、とても興味があります✨食べ物も美味しそうだし、人もフレンドリーで凄く楽しそう🎶😆お互い平和で楽しく過ごせる世界になるといいな〜と願っております✨🥰
aaawww... ありがとう
Well, it's a human nature I guess for most people really don't like to go out from their confort zone. But, being a Filipino man like my self, we usually don't worry much having a date from other nationalities. We always like to explore the unknown and when things not going as we expected? We just simply chuckle our selves and shy away and say "maybe next time." 😌😏
Hello miss anna..always take care..
I Love Mana😍😍😍
More vlog plssss
Mana congrats on 500k!!!
Having different cultures, language, food etc, can make the relationship fun! Imagine theres so much things to learn together. You learn about each others differences.
I am half Japanese meeting different women is based on preferences and openness. Many Japanese adopted American culture so is also different culture and languages
It's the old japanese parents that doesn't like having their japanese blood mixed with someone not Japanese
I enjoyed watching your video my friend 💯👍❤️❤️❤️ i like you the way how you talk, watching from Manila host I love you 🥰🥰🥰 keep safe always and enjoy, salamat dahil nagustohan mo ang Philippines and most of all,yong mga taga Pinas😘🥰 thanks again, God bless you and your family
You are😍 pretty. Liked! Subbed !
ang cute cute mo talaga mam 😊
Mana pilipino from Philippines dating Japanese in Japan that's so far a world a part in culture. you should ask again if a Filipino working in Japan for a while ask a Japanese out on a date. if Filipino already working in Japan they already know how to speak nihongo and they already experienced living in japan
BUT YOU MANA is very different to other JAPANESE GIRL you look like FILIPINA and open minded & optimistic lovely person.
Thank you for the ideas mana!! 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Congrats again for your 500k sub! ❤❤❤
I'm quite sure if a Filipino guy, would ask a Japanese lady for a date...and they were in Japan, I'm sure of that Filipino guy can speak nihonggo or even write and can communicate well with that Japanese lady. As you observe most filipinos when going abroad have orientation about the basic language and culture of the country. And most of the time we adopt the culture like being locals. So I don't think there would be a language barrier anymore..maybe just the culture anyway. Just my thoughts anyway...congrats mana for the 500k subs...God bless you always.
Correct sir. Learning the basic before going abroad.🙂that's why Filipinos are so flexible, patience and adaptable to any culture or any weather. There are Filipinos anywhere around the world.
I am open and it is fun until they make me feel bad about what i like and grew up with. Japanese and filipino different but i am glad we are still learning from each other. ❤
Me as Filipino I love Japan and Japanese. And I am inlove with the Japanese woman.
2:49 The interviewer read my mind. YES, THOSE 2 GUYSARE HANDSOME INDEED. 😏😏😏🤷♂️😂🤣🤣👍👍💕💯
Please do the "Why Japanese should date Filipino's"
It's a very intriguing and interesting question. I think, most of their answers are quite true like coming late(Filipino time), aggressive is not the right term(too friendly). But for foods, some of us can eat Japanese food. Because we are open to try different cuisines.
I have a friend who had a Japanese GF before. So, I think it's possible for Japanese and Filipino to go together, they just need to settle their differences and make things work out between them as a couple.
Kumusta Mana ! i love your content and hope soon iii be able to go to japan and married japanese men
😍😍😍😍😍. I'm new subscriber from Philippines
Well if I we’re to date a Japanese I would only worry about how can I make her see that language barrier and culture difference not hard between us. Because to me, I really like to learn about the culture of Japan and I’m learning 日本語 right now. I also have Japanese friends so if the culture and language is to be the problem then it’s not with me because I am very much aware of culture and language in Japan 😅😊 In the future I want to work and live there and be with my friends. I’m just afraid of dating because i don’t know if they will like me enough, but I tell you I can pretty much keep up with everything so don’t worry 😂😊.
Your accent is soo cute
Totoo Po Yan I'm so cute 🤗🤣🤣😂
Loveyou mana💕
Many filipinos are tri- lingual, we speak filipino(tagalog based), our local dialect and english and would easier for us to learn a fourth one and japaanese language is avery interesting to learn.
Even for Japanese they have also their own Japanese and dialect .
Hi mana I hope you will visit the philippines again...
I hope so too😍
Only concern is whether or not they're just looking for an anchor to stay in Japan
