Oh God, can't really belive that in Japan's University there are all of this kinds of clubs and activities! Here in Italy, except in the Private University (which are really really expensive), there are no types of clubs or groups to do activities like that, promoted by the University, in the video. Ahhhhhh I knew that I was born in the wrong side of the world :V
The only thing i'm jealous about japanese schools are clubs... it looks wonderful to be able to share your passion and create things/events around it with other people at school with your same interests. At my school if you form a group to sing something to celebrate the end year they would laugh their ass off and they would tell us to do these things at home or anyways not at school... I mean, you can't even do simple things like this.
I LOVE your videos! Thank you for showing the sides of life most foreigners don't see. It is envigorating, motivating, inspiring and very educational, at least to me.
Probably either the Dance Club or that last one. It looked pretty cool. I may or may not get to go on a University exchange this year, but who knows! It looks pretty fun.
okay...hello again. I`m strolling through your videos again cuz today was just...gloomy so i wanted to lightened up my mood a bit. The Arpeggio was amaing! I hope you had the full version of him singing..i love his voice!
It's a card game that uses 100 Japanese tanka poems (hyakunin-isshu). The reader (person standing) has a set of cards that displays the full poems where as the players' (people kneeling on the tatami mats) cards only reveal the last half of each of the poems. The reader begins with an introductory poem first and then after a pause reads the beginning of one of the (possible) 100 tanka poems in the deck. It's randomly selected. What's so amazing is- to play this game you need to have memorized all 100 poems first and to win you have to also memorize the layout of the cards on the ground AND be faster than the person in front of you. You get penalties if you touch the wrong card. There's more to the faults than I really could explain. I got introduced to it when I watched Chihaya-furu. It's a great anime; I'd definitely recommend checking it out!
nice video, it inspired me with that club thingy :) In Egypt we don't actually have that club formation part, only activities for people to enter and that's it :( what I'm trying to say, I feel that energy in that video...thank you :')
Wau~~!!! The first Arpeggio boys singers were really really good!!! They're like pro!! :D hmm... I think ((if I were even in Japan xD)) i'd choose the j-pop one you liked or the dance club ^^
!!!! That song/card game on the mat was Karuta! :D There is an anime on it called Chihayafuru (which I love). And holy crap that girl was fast! It's a super competitive memory game where you have to memorize at least a hundred poems. On the cards is the second half of the poem. The 'reader' (guy who was singing) reads the first part and your objective is to get the card with the correct second half. She got it after the first syllable! Though there were only a couple cards on the field. :)
Dance! This is awesome. Thanks for sharing! Also, not sure if you've answered this or not, but is Kobe Uni something a person in college can transfer to and study abroad at for a year? Or would a person need to apply strictly for that Uni? Thanks!
Ive always wanted to see what the Clubs were like, they are alot more proffesional-ish than I thought they would be! I wish they had stuff like this in my country :> Thank you for this video :) I would join GhanaGhana or MMC ^^
The game at 5:16 is called uta karuta. They have cards where poems and parts of poems from Hyakunin Isshu are written. The guy is singing the poem and the players duty is to choose the card where the end of the poem is written as fast as possible. This traditional form where the card is hit with vigor is sometimes associated with new years.
The one club that you didn't know was call karuta! It's really good :) I would recommend watching chihayafuru, if you want informations in it :) and that's for the update, it's really interesting :)
I would totally do the juggling circle ^^ Going to go to japan this summer for an exchange student program :) Gunma Prefecture cant wait xD Keep up with the wonderful vids orangetummy! They help a lot!
I've always wanted to go for archery D: but sadly IM STUCK IN CANADA but I'm planning to go for exchange after highschool then apply for this university in Japan QuQ TIME TO STUDY HARD! WISH ME LUCK QAQ
That's AWESOME! Where did you go for high school at Gunma?? I'm going to Yotsuba Gakuenn secondary school in Gunma for the exchange.. Did you go there??
i seen your video like a yr ago and you where in high school now your in college? so a few of my buddies are going to japan in the next few yrs any advice on sweet places to visit? were otakus so yeah we wanna see all that giant gundam stuff and cool electronic stores with little Japanese gizmoes
May I ask how many clubs are you allowed to join? They all seem so fun! If I were there I would probably join MMC or the dance group. Maybe that interesting looking one, the girl with the purple hair.
Good video. Japanese students are very serious about club activities !!! When I was at university people just went to their lectures and then went home !
I would do kendo or archery. I can't handle memorizing 109 poems for karuta. While the dance clubs seem fun, I think I'll be too shy to dance it. And music clubs are a no unless they need a drummer.
i think the one that you don't know was called as haiku, if i recalled it back from a manga i read once, the gameplay was just the same- tbh, i dont really know. all the clubs look fascinating though!!
For the one where the two people were on the floor with the cards, I saw something similar in a drama once. It's a game with business cards and you have to choose the right one. But the catch is that the third person says things about the cards in a weird way....so when it finally becomes obvious which card he's talking about, the players both kind of race to grab the card. At least that's how I interpreted it. Watching dramas without subtitles can be sketchy sometimes. lol
5:35 , it's hanafuda ! you can learn more about it form watching the j-drama "nihonjin no shiranai nihongo", I forgot which episode exactly,.. but it's pretty exciting , watch it all ^^
the club that u didnt kno is a karuta club and it is where u wear traditional japanese yukata and play a card game with about 100 cards with poems written on them, this card game is a bit difficult because u have to memorize every 100 poems and memorize the position of how the person ur versing arranged 25 poems of their choice and the position of urs aswell each card must have a 3 cm gap but for some reason many people ignore this step _ _^ but if ur planning to play please fallow this rule it must be fare because without the 3 cm gap it can be like 6 cm away and it will be too hard for ur appoint to get ur card , also both u and ur appoint can change as many cards as u want so u have to be able to memorize and forget repeatedly , u also need a good ear and hand in order to play this game a good ear is useful to knowing da next called card before its even called but dats pretty rare to have such an ear so having a good hand is more useful to most . The good hand its useful for speed because u want to get the card before the appoint and if u hav the most cards u win ,srry got excited .. :p im 14 n im interested in this stuff but really wen ur able to beat ur appoint, for me thats da best thing in da world ^^ o also they rate best by letters for example A is the best the most skilled player im C :( ! if u want to kno more please ask away XD

May I ask how many clubs are you allowed to join? They all seem so fun! If I were there I would probably join MMC or the dance group. Maybe that interesting looking one, the girl with the purple hair.
Good video. Japanese students are very serious about club activities !!! When I was at university people just went to their lectures and then went home !
dat wud b FRIGGIN AMAZIN !!!
oh i love your japan videos
I would do kendo or archery. I can't handle memorizing 109 poems for karuta. While the dance clubs seem fun, I think I'll be too shy to dance it. And music clubs are a no unless they need a drummer.
OMG yay! Can't wait to see more of your vids.

IAIDO!!!! i wish to learn that so badly! I must go to Japan!
aren't they playing karuta at 5:20?
Finally you are back!!!!
OMG at 5:23 it's Karuta , omoshiroiiiii no gemu
The acousic circles are amazing!
But why there weren't so much sports clubs?
i think the one that you don't know was called as haiku, if i recalled it back from a manga i read once, the gameplay was just the same- tbh, i dont really know. all the clubs look fascinating though!!
Going on an exchange to kobe university next year! So excited :)))
I would choose either American football, kendo, or tennis
They all are so amazing :)
For the one where the two people were on the floor with the cards, I saw something similar in a drama once. It's a game with business cards and you have to choose the right one. But the catch is that the third person says things about the cards in a weird way....so when it finally becomes obvious which card he's talking about, the players both kind of race to grab the card. At least that's how I interpreted it. Watching dramas without subtitles can be sketchy sometimes. lol
wow the last one was amaaazing
The dance club is AMAZING!!
I wish my University had clubs like these.

5:35 , it's hanafuda ! you can learn more about it form watching the j-drama "nihonjin no shiranai nihongo", I forgot which episode exactly,.. but it's pretty exciting , watch it all ^^
That card game was Ogura Hyakunin Isshu. Also called Karuta, I am pretty sure. Saw a manga called Chihayafuru on it ^^
well actually that kind is hyakuninisshu (in chihayafuru too) it is some kind of minor group of karuta :) btw nice vid :D
I just get a bunch of religious clubs at my university in the U.S. It's so cool that you guys have cool clubs like archery!
Whoa~ Universities in Japan is sooo awesome!
I think I would choose archery or dance club.it does look very interesting.
The last club looks fun :D
the vocalist at arpeggio was awesome!!
Haha karuta!!! And archery:)
I think the dancing club would be the most fun for me to join! :D Juggling club would be fun... If only I could juggle. ;_;
KARUTA CLUB OMFG AND THE GIRL IS WEARING A HAKAMA HAAAA
I would go for the arpeggio (acoustic circle), looks interesting!
YAYYYY! I'm so excited for your videos! Are any of your friends in your university?
Also, are the clubs for people who have that hobby already or would they be willing to teach you about/how whatever the club is about?
