Romaji isn't a Japanese writing system, it's used to transliterate Japanese into other languages using the Roman alphabet (hence the name). The Japanese themselves don't use it for writing (other than things like brand names or signposts for tourists)

You are of course right. As you have stated however, it is used in everyday live here and it is taught in schools as well. Hence the formulation "used in everyday Japanese live", as opposed to "there are three Japanese writing systems" or the like.
To avoid this confusion I also added clarification to the pinned comment (point 4) right after publishing the video.
Thank you for your comment. best regards, Johannes
After hearing.... "there are 4 writing systems in Japan" i am shocked...i thought i am fool😂cuz, I've almost completed 1 year...to learn Japanese...and I've no idea about 4th one(romanji)😂
hey, i'm a new sub and i liked the videos I saw.
just felt like saying that i liked the content of this video but i do feel like the pace was way too slow and monotone
+BananaStab awesome, thank you for subscribing and the feedback!
It was the first time it did this format, so I hope it'll be better the next time I choose it. This, however, will not be any time soon.
New videos are published every week on Thursday evenings (Japanese time.)
No problem, it's by no means a bad video, just felt like I should give my opinion.
Looking forward to the next video
Very good i have done my Home work from it and i got good because of you thanks for making these good videos

Also, for those of you that have questions about this video, here are answers to the most common ones (FAQ):
*1. “That’s not 13 facts!”:* 1. People living in Japan, 2. People living in Tokyo, 3. People over 60, 4. Islands, 5. Earthquakes, 6. Volcanoes, 7. Hours of learning, 8. # of writing systems, 9. Size of economy, 10. Export of electronics, 11. Export of cars, 12. Percentage of Shintoists, 13. Percentage of Buddhists
*2. “So there are no elderly people in Tokyo?”:* Of course there are people that are 60 years or older and live in Tokyo. I chose this style to clearly show the size of the Tokyo metropolitan area and the big problem of Japan’s over aging society in comparison to Japan’s total population.
*3. “2,200 hours of studying - in reality it’s much less.” or “2,200 hours of studying - in reality it’s much more.”:* This number was provided by the U.S. Foreign Service Institute (FSI) and refers to the number of classroom hours needed in order to gain “General Professional Proficiency in Speaking (S3) and Reading (R3)”, as a native English speaker. Hence I used the word studying instead of learning.
*4. “Romaji is not a Japanese writing system!”:* This is of course true. However, Romaji are used in daily Japanese life which makes it a total of four writing systems.
*5. “Shintoists or non religious - why are they mixed?”:* In the Japanese mindset, non-religious (無宗教, mushūkyō) identifies people who do not belong to organized religion, for example in the way Christianity is. However, many Japanese who identify themselves as mushūkyō take part in Shinto rituals, such as praying for their ancestors or visiting shrines.

A Japanese shrine is not a temple. It is a space where virtual gods, ancestors, and war criminals are gathered. Please know the history and travel. You didn't go to the temple, you went to commemorate the war criminals of World War II.
Everything is a matter of choice. Japan, the leading war criminal of World War II, chose not to apologize to the war victims and chose not to reflect. During the war, Japan slaughtered numerous innocent people, destroyed their language and culture, and looted artifacts. Until now, Japan has been officially using the Rising Sun Flag, which was used during the war, and it has not changed from the state of war criminals, claiming that other countries' territories belong to Japan. Soon, Japan will see the consequences of that choice. It was also chosen by Japan, so it should be accepted. As a result of a terrible choice...
