Funny thing, some Japanese people completely shut down when they see a foreigner trying to communicate with them even if the foreigner in question speaks passable Japanese.
😂 yeah, I experienced that, too. But most Japanese people got really happy when I attempted to talk to them in Japanese 😊 and we tried to communicate in any way we could
@@yasashiineko9069 In my experience, it's more often the younger people who are surprised at a gaijin speaking Japanese. Doubly so in more rural areas.
Some people just flat out don't have the time to talk to you, and will use a canned response that automatically guarantees them exit from the conversation, even if that response sometimes doesn't make rational sense. In this case it's "No english" as they walk way from you while you're speaking flawless Japanese to them.
@@takigan I would say its more like they don't want to help than having no time. And it's not really the rude i don't want to help, it's more of I didn't plan to take the time to help someone right now, sorry. Since their whole lives, in school, they are taught to be productive, to the workforce mainly, so I think that's the real reason why.
@@0FynnFish0 well, yeah. I thought her mom is only from Canada and Jaiden was born and raised in Arizona unless I was wrong in one of her videos a while back?
Thanks for the video! Jaiden is half Japanese on her mother's side, although they both grew up in Canada so neither of them knew the language. It touched me that you both stayed to watch the credits even though they are not relevant to this year. It's nice that you're having fun while watching this and reliving memories. I'm glad I found you "in the sea of Asians on UA-cam!" Stay safe!
When I went to Japan for the first time, everyone was so helpful. I was so confused in the subway and a lady who spoke English approached me to help. Also, I didn't understand how to read the address of my airbnb so I went into a restaurant to ask for help and they helped me even though they didn't speak English and walked me right to the building. It was mind boggling.
Makes me wanna take my foreign self to Japan with a sign written in kanji, “Please talk to me, I don’t care if you mess up, I will absolutely mess up too, the stakes are low and it’ll be fun I promise!”
So you watched the whole Jaiden animation video(it is unlikely for other Japanese people reacting to the video who usually stop on the credits part). This is like one of my goals right now: to watch every single Japanese person with a UA-cam channel react to Jaiden animations. I can learn a lot from you people with different perspectives and opinions.
In any country you'll also find people who will answer like that or just ghost you. Has happened to me in Korea and even in Germany (only once). But they are definitely not the norm, for sure. In Korea especially, people used mobile apps for translation purposes. Out of all the people I talked to there, only one ghosted me. So yeah, point is, you might find rude people but they don't represent the vast majority who will try to help even using gestures. And just to end on a positive note, normally in Japan and Korea, talking in the subway is frowned upon, but we didn't know that, so we were talking, trying to figure out directions for our hotel from the station we were supposed to get off. One of us was holding a tablet trying to figure out things from a map and her luggage kept rolling away every now and then. A very old gentleman was sitting next to her and he put his feet and hands on the luggage and nodded "it's fine, do your thing, I got this".
Btw kudos for the explanations on the etiquette with the washing of hands and the reasons behind them etc. Out of all the "Japanese reacts to Jaiden's video" I've watched, you are the first to have knowledge of the traditions and history so far.
I went to Japan with my dad back in 2012, so 4 years before she did. No joke, the best 3 weeks of my life. We went to so many places, including the Ghibli museum, Tetsuka museum, several theme parks including Mt. Fuji Q, Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea and even just walking around Akihabara was so much fun. The only real negative was 1 day when a monsoon hit the area we were in, so we had to cut our day's plans short and hop on the bullet train to get to Tokyo, but we got delayed so long that, instead of getting there at 6pm, we ended up arriving after 11:30pm. Other than that though, it was an enormous amount of fun and I loved immersing myself in the culture. 1 odd thing happened though. While looking for the Suginami Museum, we were passing through a neighbourhood I had the weirdest feeling I'd been through before, which made no sense since it was shortly into our trip, so we hadn't been in any similar areas before that day and that trip was literally the first time I'd ever been outside my home country of Australia. But, it got weirder. As we reached an intersection in the street, I immediately had a simultaneously vivid and vague memory of being a child running through that specific intersection and being really happy when I'd been running. Again, this trip was the first time in my entire life I'd been outside Australia, so I was completely baffled as to where this memory came from. It was vivid in that I could clearly remember being a child running in that area and the happy feelings I'd had at the time, but nothing else stood out in the memory. I couldn't tell how old I was in the memory, my name, why I'd been so happy, nothing. To this day, I still have no clue where that memory came from. My only possible guesses are I was either regaining a fragment of memory from a past life in which I'd lived in that area of Japan or a ghost had shared its memory with me. Either way, it's 1 souvenir from our trip I'd have never expected to return with. Do hope I'll be returning to Japan either later this year or sometime next year.
My piece of advice for someone trying to get around in a foreign city is: look for the other foreigners! Ask THEM for directions. There's a good chance they'll speak english or spanish (or at least, understand spanish if you're in Brazil or Italy) and maybe they know their way around a bit better. I, for example, was able to help some american tourists get in the right bus in Rome, and point them to where they wanted to go. And I asked some super nice Pakistanis for directions on the Frankfurt train station. The guys even looked for me when the train arrived to tell me "you need to get on THIS one". Don't get me wrong, german people tried to help me but we literally couldn't communicate.
One day I was playing online in the Roblox speaking Brazilian Portuguese and I find a Spanish. We both don't know how say the other language but we undestand one another. Soo there was two random players chating in Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish....one of my best experiencies!
@@trighyjock5415 I met some Spanish guys in a German class years ago. We could literally just speak to each other in our native languages and both understand... enough.
i can only imagine the "no English, no English" comes from being out of practice and afraid that they'd be heavily misunderstood? to me, personally, even if it's barely passable, i could still understand. we have a lot of films that satirize broken English, which i like to think of as training for if it were to happen in real life. the only issue i seem to have now is a certain manhua i like to read looks like it's been ran through google translate 3 or 4 times, and is now so incomprehensible my brain hurts trying to look at it.
6:15..... 😂😂 It's so opposite in india... 😂....If there is a foreigner the people try and speak to them....as if they are the learning board....indians love to speak and interact... 😀💜
I did a study abroad in Osaka and my host family only had two days to help me memorize my train to university and for sure I got turned around when I had to go up or down stairs to find my train and then trains were for the same destination just going different ways so I got confused if they were leaving for or going to the destination. Like two trains for "Takarazuka" but either one would take me back or one would go ahead and I didn't know my kanji enough to differentiate the two :0
When you both mentioned the Tokyo train system, my brain just went, "MOOD!!!" That was the only thing I didn't like about traveling around Tokyo during Golden Week, the train system, and then there's two line 4s etc., and that got confusing and the main station is massive.
9:03 Christ, its way more confusing than the metro map in Gaia (Portugal) and that one only has about 4 different lines but...it's also confusing cuz one metro meets with the other on the same line sometimes and I lose sight of what I was looking for! ...I can only imagine what it's like in my capital... 😅😰
The metro in Porto isn't really that complicated, after all the only big intersection between all the lines happens in Trindade and you just have to go up the stairs to get access to the rest of the lines.
Riding the train system in Japan isn't too different from another country. I think North Americans aren't used to using mass transportation. The only thing that makes Japan harder is that sometimes different privately operated train stations means you sometimes have to have a 10 minute walk and buy another ticket at a nearby station.
6:30 Funny when I was in Japan I either ran into people who would avoid me or MOB me for FREE English lessons. 8:40 after living there for 6 months I became ONE with the trains. Even learned to sleep and get off at the correct stop (I counted stops, YEA)
So many people helped me & my friends the first time we visited Japan. We used Google maps for trains and kinda had it right, but we would ask people for confirmation by reading the romanization and pointing to the platform signs. One time we asked a merchant in one of the subway stops and with no hesitation she left her shop to take us to the platform. Another time we looked so confused a high school student came to us and helped us IN ENGLISH. We were so thankful to everyone.
oh no...I already watch it this video, but this is the reaction video anyway so I watch it again with you guys, not going to lie it really much better when watching with you guys then watching alone:) edit: and please don't jump off the 43 foot high temple balcony okay? I sure it will kill you xD
I often watch videos from Japanese expats in the Netherlands. I put on the automatic translation in UA-cam from Japanese to Dutch. The translations are always insane.
The US has something similar to Megadonki called Super Target. It's a regular Target department store (clothes, home goods, etc.) combined with a "super market" (grocery store). There are (were?) Super Walmarts as well. But, I think both companies have started dropping the "Super" moniker lately.
my mother has the power to be able to talk to people who speak a different language and it's a mystery. My sister and I tell her that she would survive even in a country like Japan without speaking either Japanese or English.
I got lucky when I went to Japan, while doing research before the trip I found out that most of the JR line kiosk people speak decent English. So when I got there my friend and I just asked them to teach us how to read the maps and we were fine after that. Plus, that JR pass paid for itself in the first 3 days. 10/10 would buy again.
The only time I used an asian train was in Hong Kong, to get from the port to a bookstore for a particular book. That was an adventure. I spent three days and nights in the dock reading the book by the lone orange streetlight, because I had no money and I wanted the solitude.
I found the Japanese to be very helpful, helped that my daughter was dressed in lolita outfits. Most people wanted a photo with her as unusual to see a foreigner dressed that way.
One time I was working with a group of asians at work and I'm pretty friendly and I was the new guy. They would literally as a group of 7 people ask me a random question in English, and after I answered take five steps away, huddle up like a football team and talk in their native language and Literally point right at me. I was like wat??!?? I think they were vietnamese.. I dont know, what their problem was..
funny enough, "taking the plunge" is already a saying in english as well, but i don't think we have a specific reason for it and i'm not actually sure where it comes from lol
I tried to ask for directions in Tokyo from the guy handing out tissues. I speak Japanese, so I started with "Sumimasen..." and he immediately shook his head and walked away, as if he was assuming I would ask him in English before actually processing what I said. I stood there for a few seconds wondering what I said wrong. 🤣
To anyone who is Japanese/from Japan, those of us who speak English don't care if you can speak the language perfectly or not. A good majority of us can't even speak our own language properly or we mix up words, IT'S OK
If I visit Japan...first I would like to meet you guys ..you know that would be best to have a translator 😂....or I have to run around saying , " Konichiwa , do you speak English ?" 😂
You're so pretty! I guess Peach is pretty too haha. Anyway, jokes aside; you are absolutely beautiful. Seriously Peach, I'm not trying to hit on you, I'm just trying to give a compliment. You have such kind eyes, and your smile is absolutely stunning. I hope this brightens your day.
i feel like.. if i ever got over the fear of flying.. i would want to visit japan.. but i would probably want to spend 2 days in tokyo eating ramen and shit.. and 12 days in a small town where i could go full fkin hikikomori because i have no social skills and tokyo scared the crap out of me...
I have a question if possible. I learned from another UA-cam that a portion of japanese people don't appreciate others who are different. If you have time, would you please do a video of you opinion on that?
With the Wish thing it would probably help if you had a really good tumbling technique for it I've heard a good amount of science that says even some falls you would normally break a limb doing you can walk away perfectly fine from if you're good enough.
Given my Japanese comes from google translate I strongly doubt this is going to be accurate but if I were to greet a Japanese speaker what words or phrases should I change?: Kon'nichiwa! Watashinonamaewa Nikorasudesu. Watashi wa nihongo o ryūchō ni hanasenainode, eigo to nihongo o hanasu hito o shitte imasu ka? *in a situation where they say I don’t understand:* Chottomattekudasai! Watashino bokokugo wa akirakani eigodesu. Translation for anyone reading: Hello! My name is Nicholas. I don’t speak Japanese fluently so, do you know anyone who speaks English and Japanese? One moment please! My native language is obviously English. (Based on what I wrote I don’t know how much is considered google translate or which words would need to be changed for other dialects).
I don’t speak Japanese but I’m pretty sure the ‘Watashinonamaeha’ ‘ha’ part is actually pronounced ‘wa’ in this case. Same reason for why the Kon’nichiwa is pronounced Kon’nichiwa instead of Kon’nichiha.
Also, Japanese people generally avoid usage of the word 'Watashi' (or 'boku' or 'atashi' etc.) in any instance where it's already clear they're talking about themselves. If Japanese people used 'watashi' the same way we use the word 'I/Me' they would sound extremely self-centered to other Japanese people. You can say "Watashi no namae wa blablabla....", but every sentence after that you would drop the 'watashi wa'. You also avoid 'anata' (you) in much the same way when referring to someone else since it's considered too direct/familiar and therefore rude in most contexts. There are appropriate times where you can use it (a wife will often use this term when talking with her husband), but it's actually best to avoid the word as much as you can as a beginner speaker.
I don't understand how can you react twice? This is a little weird, i know you want to have both the English and Japanese reaction, but one of those it's bound to be fake because isn't your real first reaction. Edit: I think this is the first one
How does the guy manage to live? He apparently does not speak Japanese and his English sounds like the English of a 2 year old. Or does he speak something else?
Funny thing, some Japanese people completely shut down when they see a foreigner trying to communicate with them even if the foreigner in question speaks passable Japanese.

This video is way old. But if you watch the end cards she mentions who helped her with the Japanese translations.
You're so pretty! I guess Peach is pretty too haha. Anyway, jokes aside; you are absolutely beautiful. Seriously Peach, I'm not trying to hit on you, I'm just trying to give a compliment. You have such kind eyes, and your smile is absolutely stunning. I hope this brightens your day.
Y'all don't go to Berlin or Munich if you have problems in Tokyo, because this plan does not look complicated what so ever.
Fun video.
i feel like.. if i ever got over the fear of flying.. i would want to visit japan.. but i would probably want to spend 2 days in tokyo eating ramen and shit.. and 12 days in a small town where i could go full fkin hikikomori because i have no social skills and tokyo scared the crap out of me...
Are you guys live in Tokyo or where?
I have a question are noodles tasty ? Bc I heard some people say'd (mostly on yt) noodles are delishus
I highly recommend checking out the follow up to this video, it’s pretty entertaining and hilarious.
I have a question if possible. I learned from another UA-cam that a portion of japanese people don't appreciate others who are different. If you have time, would you please do a video of you opinion on that?
With the Wish thing it would probably help if you had a really good tumbling technique for it I've heard a good amount of science that says even some falls you would normally break a limb doing you can walk away perfectly fine from if you're good enough.
A comment for the algorithm. I don't have anything to chime in on, lol.
Nice
A fellow Asian saw a new Asian reactors in a sea and of Asians! in UA-cam! Cool huh?! Hehe
People who only speak English really think that speaking slower doesn't help huh? Ofcourse it helps
I don't know why but this guy look like Nobita's father from Doraemon
Peach you are very beautiful and Asian women are my favorite type and P.S. you have a beautiful smile.
Please react to rainych kiss me more
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍
Pun ON captiones
Given my Japanese comes from google translate I strongly doubt this is going to be accurate but if I were to greet a Japanese speaker what words or phrases should I change?:
Kon'nichiwa! Watashinonamaewa Nikorasudesu. Watashi wa nihongo o ryūchō ni hanasenainode, eigo to nihongo o hanasu hito o shitte imasu ka? *in a situation where they say I don’t understand:* Chottomattekudasai! Watashino bokokugo wa akirakani eigodesu.
Translation for anyone reading:
Hello! My name is Nicholas. I don’t speak Japanese fluently so, do you know anyone who speaks English and Japanese?
One moment please! My native language is obviously English. (Based on what I wrote I don’t know how much is considered google translate or which words would need to be changed for other dialects).
Everything is correct except the last part. It should be “Watashino bokokugo wa akirakani eigodesu.”
@@pschannel thanks
I don’t speak Japanese but I’m pretty sure the ‘Watashinonamaeha’ ‘ha’ part is actually pronounced ‘wa’ in this case. Same reason for why the Kon’nichiwa is pronounced Kon’nichiwa instead of Kon’nichiha.
Also, Japanese people generally avoid usage of the word 'Watashi' (or 'boku' or 'atashi' etc.) in any instance where it's already clear they're talking about themselves. If Japanese people used 'watashi' the same way we use the word 'I/Me' they would sound extremely self-centered to other Japanese people. You can say "Watashi no namae wa blablabla....", but every sentence after that you would drop the 'watashi wa'.
You also avoid 'anata' (you) in much the same way when referring to someone else since it's considered too direct/familiar and therefore rude in most contexts. There are appropriate times where you can use it (a wife will often use this term when talking with her husband), but it's actually best to avoid the word as much as you can as a beginner speaker.

japanese engrishu @sorathetroll
I don't understand how can you react twice? This is a little weird, i know you want to have both the English and Japanese reaction, but one of those it's bound to be fake because isn't your real first reaction.
Edit: I think this is the first one
How does the guy manage to live? He apparently does not speak Japanese and his English sounds like the English of a 2 year old. Or does he speak something else?
why was one of the "japanese mafia" guys the bad guy from my hero academia ?
