    Ken-san you are an underrated genius of our time. A perverted genius, but still a genius.

    That TV ad convinced me 100%😂😂
    The school I went to had Japanese toilets. During winter I spent extra time sitting there cuz it feels nice and warm, such an experience!!😂. Japanese are genius, seriously.

    They saw the bidet and said " We can do better!", and then they did.
    Great video Misha, your friend is really funny as well.

    I like when he mentioned licking them without fear the reason people typically don't do that is because consuming harmful bacteria from urine or feces regardless of whether it's yours or not will lead to symptoms of fever vomiting and diarrhea but with these washlets you could have added in something like chocolate syrup or whipped cream

    I installed the first bidet in 2020, entire family only used one bathroom for 1 year before I installed in the other bathrooms, I am also a Japanese toilet lover, Meshida and Suzuki San are awesome

    As an Engineer i have to say, thank you Meshida-san and Ken-san, for the ever so "enlightening" background on how TOTO developed and researched @$$pects ... .oops .. i mean aspects of the washlet. To all those TOTO Engineers that took a hot one to the @$$ to figure out the optimum thermal envelope and performance regime..... I salute you! in the name of Science (^_^)7 Premium Content as usual!

    I stayed in a serviced apartment in Hanoi that had been built by a Japanese company in 2014. It was now managed by the Vietnamese.
    Unfortunately, the heated toilet seat would not switch off despite it being the height of summer in northern Vietnam.

    Meshida-San, I think the ultimate addition to the Japan Report would be and ideal background for you and Suzuki-San. Other than that,you 2 did a fantastic report. And special shout out to Lie-Chan for the song suggestion. Japan has truly set the Gold Standard for toilets, and the rest of the world appreciates it.

    • @skylinefever
      @skylinefever 2 роки тому

      Perhaps if you want to discuss eating raw fish, you should ask about fugu. Fugu is blowfish, and it has to be prepared a certain way to prevent poisoning. Some people still get sick from fugu poisoning.

    Honestly... I've never used these. Even when I was in Japan I just treated these as normal toilets... so these features were wasted on me. I just ignored the spaceship controls beside me.
    At least toilets were clean and maintained, even ones giving off 80's vibe.

    --if Tenga was as advance as Toto Washlet, that would be a hole new world experience too
    --Meshida-san, if 80% of households in Japan have washlets, then the 2020 toilet paper rush shouldn't be a thing in Japan right?

    I love Japan but I think it's a huge irony that they are super clean on one hand, (even using different shoes when entering the restroom) but don't wash their hands with soap on public toilets, though it's proven that washing your hands without soap barely helps to remove the bacteria. Not using soap is in fact very dirty.
