It is Dappled lighting btw, it’s a really difficult type of light to paint. A lot of really descriptive words in English are found in the painting community.
The fact that Joey was a fan of Felix and now they live in the same country and make videos together sometimes. Really brings this full circle for Joey.
The lack of sarcasm in Japan was an adjustment when I lived there. The first time we stayed at a hotel with an in room onsen, my young son screamed and cheered soon as he saw it. The bellhop was so confused when I turned to him and said “Sorry, he hates onsen.”
Literally just recently I made a dry sarcastic remark in Japanese and the person I said it to took it seriously and I had to immediately clarify that I didn't and that it was a joke. Jokes do exist in Japanese but dry humor is not a common thing I guess.
@@rinesserin I do not think sarcasm exists in Korea tho. They normally get offended when you make jokes and become sarcastic even though that is NOT considerably offensive and rather teasing others. They def have no concept of sarcasm
I did the research: Joey uploaded his first interview video (not called 'I spent a day with') on the 9th of December 2016 and Anthony uploaded his first on the 12th of August 2017. So Joey made his interview video first, but Anthony uploaded his first 'I spent a day with' video on the 6th of February 2018 and Joey uploaded his first on the 13th of July 2020. So Anthony was the first to name it 'I spent a day with' but Joey was the first to make an interview style video.
@@DemicaSmall I know you're talking about trash taste and just trying to shorten the sentence... but at first glance it does look like your dissing them by calling it a trash podcast lmao
Their podcast, Trash Taste, is always playing on my background when I’m doing chores and work. I love their dynamics and topics, it’s engaging and funny.
Wow! Props to Anthony, who has a great understanding of the English language, never knew the word "Dapple" or "Dappling". Komorebi = the light that comes through the leaves of a tree. Dappled light = is produced when sunlight passes through the leaf canopy of a plant.
Im curious to know where are u in the world? Im im england and dappled/ dappled light is used pretty common but ive seen several comments saying they havnt heard the word (i love people are excited about learning it, its a cool word) I know im dumb so it isnt that my lexicon is diverse with uncommon words
@@Rissen_ Yep, always a pleasure to learn something new, it's what some of us strive for in life! I'm in California, US. It's weird, but it's not a common word/phrase used where I live. Mostly because we don't dabble in specifically with trees much, but we do all sorts of outdoor and nature activities.
In visiting Japan, we had a random older Japanese man at a bar approach us to practice his English and I just know that must have been way out of hot comfort zone it was just so sweet
Joey is just such an insanely good talking partner. This episode went so fluently because this almost just feels like you two talking rather than an interview. Thanks for the video!
I did a research paper in Uni about sarcasm in Japanese. Like Joey said, they have it but don't use it often. Also, we use sarcasm to bond with people, and in Japanese, it's used in a more antagonistic way.
I like to say that the Japanese do have sarcasm, but they don't really dig on verbal irony. Sarcasm is usually defined as being denigrating or mocking, while verbal irony isn't. It's the difference between calling someone Einstein as a sarcastic insult and calling a rainy day a lovely day to go suntanning. The first is sarcasm, the latter is verbal irony.
yes exactly to poke at you essentially as a person who knows English sarcasm its hilarious to hear and VERY good sarcasm but its because its so harsh and so antagonizing like you said
yeah, we use the word sarcasm in a more broader sense than it actually is. the definition of sarcasm is "the use of irony to mock or convey content", whereas we're often being facetious or ironic instead of actually sarcastic. so Japan has sarcasm (in the dictionary sense), but not so much facetiousness or irony
I never liked the “where do you see yourself in 5 years” question, because life is fluid and we can’t see the future. I think what are your top 5 goals would be a better question.
Especially when you're fresh into the work force just living day to day lol. I remember being unsure about what situation I'd be in a month from then. I didn't know what I wanted until after I was out of school and had worked multiple fields and even now it's still hard to think that far ahead for myself.
I used to think the exact same way until I realized the importance of it. It's not about your fixed goals but rather hey have you ever thought about your own life and know what you are doing? Makes you realize what your heart truly feels.
They say the first 5 years of a child's life is some of it not the most important part. And the fact joey got to learn Japanese and English would have really helped him in so many ways. Mum and dad should be proud.
I've heard people say that Joey's Japanese is like dictionary-level impeccable, but he often misuses words in English, so I think his Japanese is probably a lot better than his English.
I think living in Japan for so long would effect his English vocab. I know he's around a lot of English still for work and stuff but I'm sure it still has an impact. That was my issue when in brasil fir a few years studying
No, he misuses some Japanese words too(he is the most native sounding person who didn’t grow up in Japan that I’ve ever seen though). Being perfect at two+ languages is just near impossible
I think the issue is that people only get a specific view of Japan, especially through anime. I’m actually not sure if SOME people would care about Japan if it wasn’t for anime. I try to be more interested in learning about Japanese culture, though it’s not something I really seek… from my perspective I’d probably learn more if I visited Japan, but there a whole bunch of steps I’d want to take (like learning basic Japanese) before doing that
I miss the anime content Joey makes but his challenge videos and interviews have been fun to watch. I hope he eventually sprinkles in anime content when he ends a good subject
I will say German does have formal and informal way of speaking like how Joey described Japanese. We spent half of semester in my german class on the different pronouns and conjuction you have to use when talking to superior versus a friend. I remember seeing a story of a man who was robbed in germany and the man seemed to be a non native speaker since he keep speaking formal to the person he was robbing, basically say,"Good sir please give me your wallet!". Its very confusing for everyone in the class who all spoke languages that didnt have that system(most of us were only english speakers but a few were bilingual)
As a native German speaker with intermediate Japanese, you’re kinda right, but Japanese is even more intense. In German you have mostly informal and formal but in Japanese you have way more levels
@@ChaosCause3000 I'm not that deep into my own Japanese study yet but from what I saw so far of Keigo, translates pretty well into German, you might need to shift a word here or there but in general you also have different levels of formal and informal speech. I noticed foreigners to german struggle with this especially at first in school since there can be a complete mess of a blend between friends, teachers or dont care about getting respect and the ones that wish you would adress them as the president of the world. So far most if not all of what I saw with Japanese grammar has one way or another to translate it into German, some systems are just used differently in each language. But also mixing Kanji and Context based conversations in, definitely doesn't help making it easier.
A stereotype that grates on me a bit is when people claim English isn’t expressive. It’s all about the breadth of vocabulary you know; metaphor, simile, wordplay, and tonality add flavor. It’s not a language lacking in depth, rather, often times (like any other language) it’s the people that speak it lacking in depth.
Yea I'm not supposed to like English, as a fluent Welsh speaker, but the English language has so much depth. The accents and dialects in the UK fascinate me and the way people, use it. I think this is the main reason English has caught on around the world rather than brute colonisation. Japanese people who fall in love with English say they can be themselves when they speak it.
hm, i think you're right, but i think maybe someone who has only spoken japanese or who grew up speaking only japanese for 90% of their life could have a hard time understanding just how hard tone, even something like facial expression or body language can add. also ' connotations ' -- the fact that certain words MEAN the same thing but they carry a different feeling. think ' portent ' vs ' harbinger ' . they both technically mean the same/very similar, but harbinger has much more negative feeling. joey was representing the opinion of a mainly japanese speaker. i mean he did agree with him but it could be easy to agree with him. with japanese maybe it's just that you don't have to put so much personal, active effort into making it deep, because the words taught in school already give that depth?
I absolutely am loving this video. I discovered Joey through Aki and i have read a few mangas Joey has recommended in the past. He really is a great man and it shows how much he loved and admires the Japan culture. I hope to someday in the future visit Japan at least once.
I've been studying Japanese for almost 3 years still learning so much especially due to having ADHD it makes it a little harder to do lessons, but I absolutely enjoy all of it 私は日本語を勉強しています。and Anthony and Joey, ありがとうございます for everything you do! ❤
as someone who speaks three languages i really felt what joey said about not finding the right words to accurately say something in another language without losing the meaning
Joey is just such an interesting person. Been watching him for years and even though the content has shifted I honestly think he’s such a great talker he could do any kind of content and be entertaining. Also he’s gotta do more vids with Pewds!
Firstly, excellent interview! You two have excellent chemistry and play off of each other so well! Secondly - most languages that aren't English have words for sensations and situations that in English would amount to a sentence, or a paragraph even! German has that MAJORLY in common with Japanese, even! It's also funny to me that when learning Spanish, they said that the formal and informal words weren't super important in conversation - but in Japanese, it's ESSENTIAL.
I'm studying Japanese and doing a student exchange in Japan, I can totally relate to this video. definitely can feel the culture difference in many aspects for example: I'm a touchy person, Japanese people aren't, but I love to make friends here and learn things beyond the study books
23:10 I love this aspect of certain languages so much. It's so beautiful and fun and cool which is a huge encouragement for me to learn the language even if not fluently
It is called "dappled light." It's impressive that he knew that. Another word added to my dictionary lol I watched this interview after Connor's, and I must say that we need a Garnt interview!! It would complete the trio 🎉
When I first started watching more and more UA-cam in around 2018/2019. Joey was one of the first channels I subscribed too and I'm happy to see that he's still going strong!!
i find it funny how joey tried to give an example of a word thats one word in japanese and a bunch in english and anthony came up with a one word equivalent immediately. id like a new example please!
1:25 It's funny he mentioned that. There's a UA-camr called "Mr. Anime" who shot his mother, father and brother. Some people were confused and thought that Joey, The Anime Man, was the one who did it
Fellow Aussie here. Yep our internet is one of the worst in the world and used to be incredibly slow. I also used to start uploading before I'd go to sleep and would prey the upload would be finished in the morning before needing to leave for work. The worst was when telstra would randomly turn of the internet duing the middle of the night and you'd find the upload had paused - and this was with cable and not dial up. Dial up users had no chance
That’s very interesting since I hear a lot of stories of people going through the opposite. Not that they were “unaccepted” but definitely not treated as their own. Still having prejudices
Gotta admit, never heard of dappled light before this myself. But I feel like Joey might never recover from learning this word exists in English hahaha!
I'd say that English is a language that has many specific terms, but simply don't use them. this is why we say primary and secondary vocabulary. while you could be using these specific terms, most people wouldn't understand you because the terms aren't universally taught. and Japanese might use those types of terms and words more frequently. just a guess tho. coming from a Swede, I find many words that describe detailed things but they just aren't used daily. Here in Sweden, many old words are set aside for modern English slang. I think we should bring back overly specific terms.
This was so beautiful, awesome and hilarious, especially when you started competing for the rights to "I spent a day with", that killed me, your personalities are so similar, bouncing off each other, it was great. I haven't watched Joey in a while, and this was really cool to see, not because of him, just fell out of watching him, and getting busy with things.
The way Joey expresses this hidden agenda towrads foreigners in Japan, resonates so much with me being from Mexico but was raised in the USA but durring the 90s to 2010s, I have the same feeling though I've noticed mostly everyone are super nice to tourists but when it comes to actually living here, I've fallen into a bad depression since I've moved here and the change is so drastic from what I was used to that I am trying hard to leave this country and never return for how bad I've been treated here.
I can get that feeling of isolation and aversion to anything foreign. IDK if it's the same in Australia, but at least from what I've experienced in the US and read about, American society does have that same aversion to outside ideas and cultures. It's just that instead of all outsiders, society moves and changes who they hate. I highly suggest reading on the immigration of the Germans in the early colonial settlement, very interesting stuff, especially when you compare their treatment to the slaves that would come some 200 years later.
I think because America is so big and has basically 50 small countries (states) itself, it's hard for people to sort of narrow down "Americans" as a whole. I grew up and worked in the Northeastern US and the majority of people know languages other than English (and usually it's not just Spanish or French or German, but it's like Thai, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, various African languages, various Native American languages,) and a lot of it is due to how fascinated people are with other foods and cultures and how diverse the US is in allowing access to foreign media. Anime/manga, Manhwa (Korean) and Manhua (Chinese) have all blown up in the last decade especially though like Funimation, Crunchyroll, and webtoons where people WANT to learn more languages and cultures to be able to understand cultures beyond just a piece of media translated in English. I'm purposely learning Japanese so I can understand beyond what works for an English translation and it's so great to watch something in Japanese and know there's a meaning behind stuff
11:17 This is so true! After living here for 10 years now, the utopia/"honeymoon" phase is long gone. However, it still beats my home country even with it's issues. I do like the fact that Joey speaks on the difference between visiting and living in Japan
The sarcasm part is so hilarious, because a friend brought his Japanese friend to America for a little while, and he learned sarcasm. He loved it so much, he would only speak sarcastically. to the point that everyone couldn't tell if he was being real. One time, he said he liked a food and everyone thought he was being sarcastic. He wasn't that time lol
11:45 on the topic of perceiving (stereotyping) Japan as futuristic and technologized, I found „Techno-Orientalism“ edited by Roh, Huang and Niu, that interrogates this idea (and broader Asian stereotypes in context of technology) thoroughly through various essays. For me, this helped countered some bias in my own perception, stemming from Anime but also Cyberpunk tropes. One of the early statements that I found intriguing was the framing of Japan and China in context of technology: „Japan creates technology, but China is the technology. In the eyes of the West, both are crucial engines of the future: Japan innovates and China manufactures.“ (p. 4) From the back of the book: „Techno-Orientalism investigates the phenomenon of imagining Asia and Asians in hypo- or hyper-technological terms in literary, cinematic, and new media representations, while critically examining the stereotype of Asians as both technologically advanced and intellectually primitive, in dire need of Western consciousness-raising.“
I remember in my geography class we had a grad student from Japan in the US. I asked him if he enjoyed manga/anime, and he was so offended I even asked him lol.
my brain read pornography class instead of geography class… also maybe he was offended because it sounded like you assumed he likes manga/anime because he’s from Japan?
back then if you tried searching up anime recommendations, joey’s channel always appeared. it was sort of unavoidable that his youtube channel would appear a lot in the “anime” search on yt. i gave in one day & watched an anime recommendation video of his. i would say that he is partially the reason how i got into anime just because of his explanations, he put a lot of anime & manga fans onto really good anime back in the days when there wasn’t nothing else to do but escape in youtube & cartoon animations
Yooo Joey has Hungarian blood. He is one of us! A small country in the middle of Europe that no one knows. With a dictator president and a dying economy... (at least we're good at kayaking, this year we got 2 nobel prizes and we can swear the best in the world) I've always felt so inexplicably familiar with his face, but now it's understandable. Very good video, golden people. Love, peace, brotherhood.
Hey to those that didn't follow Joey before this video I just want to add a little tidbit. Regarding his computer exploding, to expand upon the story, Joey was actually playing Nekopara while all of that happened.

Exactly!! Also you feel more eager to be productive and achieve long time projects if they are divided in sets of goals.

Joey is just such an interesting person. Been watching him for years and even though the content has shifted I honestly think he’s such a great talker he could do any kind of content and be entertaining. Also he’s gotta do more vids with Pewds!
Firstly, excellent interview! You two have excellent chemistry and play off of each other so well! Secondly - most languages that aren't English have words for sensations and situations that in English would amount to a sentence, or a paragraph even! German has that MAJORLY in common with Japanese, even! It's also funny to me that when learning Spanish, they said that the formal and informal words weren't super important in conversation - but in Japanese, it's ESSENTIAL.
Love how this interview doesn't even talk about anime. Just like Joey's channel and the trash taste podcast. Living up to the vibe
Can we get a TT episode with Anthony on it? Maybe even Ian too? Like honestly, these guys are such a vibe.
anthony is in ep 110 already :D
@@rye6307 WOAH that was a while back than
I'm studying Japanese and doing a student exchange in Japan, I can totally relate to this video.
definitely can feel the culture difference in many aspects for example: I'm a touchy person, Japanese people aren't, but I love to make friends here and learn things beyond the study books
The expected crossover we didn't deserve but definitely needed.
Now he needs to interview Garnt!! 😂
23:10 I love this aspect of certain languages so much. It's so beautiful and fun and cool which is a huge encouragement for me to learn the language even if not fluently
It is called "dappled light." It's impressive that he knew that.
Another word added to my dictionary lol
I watched this interview after Connor's, and I must say that we need a Garnt interview!! It would complete the trio 🎉
When I first started watching more and more UA-cam in around 2018/2019.
Joey was one of the first channels I subscribed too and I'm happy to see that he's still going strong!!
Turns out Joey is just the protagonist from Mob Psycho 100, but instead of telepathy it's with sarcasm.
i find it funny how joey tried to give an example of a word thats one word in japanese and a bunch in english and anthony came up with a one word equivalent immediately. id like a new example please!
I guess the best way to describe "Komorebi" in english is "Dappled Light" which is still 1 word longer.
The awkward kind of stare at the end was perfect
1:25 It's funny he mentioned that. There's a UA-camr called "Mr. Anime" who shot his mother, father and brother. Some people were confused and thought that Joey, The Anime Man, was the one who did it
I love that Joey is repping the Family Mart socks
Fellow Aussie here. Yep our internet is one of the worst in the world and used to be incredibly slow. I also used to start uploading before I'd go to sleep and would prey the upload would be finished in the morning before needing to leave for work. The worst was when telstra would randomly turn of the internet duing the middle of the night and you'd find the upload had paused - and this was with cable and not dial up. Dial up users had no chance
I feel like I'm watching 2 Jojo characters have a casual conversation together
the way i was hysterical at the end with anthony just sitting there waiting for me to leave the video ohmygod
i just realised he didnt use his usual 'I spent a day with' title. now i need to see anthony padilla in a Theanimeman interview video WITH that title
Letssss go Anthony!!! Have fun watching everyone!
As a 35 year old almost 36 next April, I felt that "yeaah" from Anthony lmao😂
I love this Anthony x Joey interview!
I relate so heavily to not really knowing my identity and being called different nationalities to what I am 😂
15:15 XD "OH he's Nihongo Jozu"
Being a foreigner in Japan was really weird, they accepted me as one of their own but I didn't speak Japanese back then, it was wild
That’s very interesting since I hear a lot of stories of people going through the opposite. Not that they were “unaccepted” but definitely not treated as their own. Still having prejudices
That dappled light clap back was lightning fast 😂
Gotta admit, never heard of dappled light before this myself. But I feel like Joey might never recover from learning this word exists in English hahaha!
I'd say that English is a language that has many specific terms, but simply don't use them. this is why we say primary and secondary vocabulary. while you could be using these specific terms, most people wouldn't understand you because the terms aren't universally taught. and Japanese might use those types of terms and words more frequently. just a guess tho. coming from a Swede, I find many words that describe detailed things but they just aren't used daily. Here in Sweden, many old words are set aside for modern English slang. I think we should bring back overly specific terms.
It's funny, ever since I saw that picture of Joey as a little kid from the podcast, now I see his Japanese features a lot more.
7:46 wow you had a similar story to Gab! That's actually so cool dude I love people who're willing to go through that (its a lot)
The fact that I watched most of these major shifts in his career happen in real time, just showed me that I spent way too much time on this platform.
Me when I see pewdiepie and/or other UA-camrs get married and start families after watching them for almost 10 years 🥲
so excited for assumptions!! and great interview as always with joey, love it!!!
Joey's the type of guy to reveal Japan's darkest secrets
First Connor and now Joey?! Cannot wait for Garnt to be next 😃
Joey rocking that Family Mart socks is lit
Never thought I was living in timeline where these two interact.
22:22 and now I have learned what dappled light is😂 what an educational channel
This was so beautiful, awesome and hilarious, especially when you started competing for the rights to "I spent a day with", that killed me, your personalities are so similar, bouncing off each other, it was great. I haven't watched Joey in a while, and this was really cool to see, not because of him, just fell out of watching him, and getting busy with things.
JOEY ROCKING THE FAMILY MART SOCKSS , damn fashionista.
The way Joey expresses this hidden agenda towrads foreigners in Japan, resonates so much with me being from Mexico but was raised in the USA but durring the 90s to 2010s, I have the same feeling though I've noticed mostly everyone are super nice to tourists but when it comes to actually living here, I've fallen into a bad depression since I've moved here and the change is so drastic from what I was used to that I am trying hard to leave this country and never return for how bad I've been treated here.
This was such a chill interview I loved it it was so real and it actually teaches me quite some things❤
Now let’s ask the real questions: do the interviewed people sit in the room when Anthony does the sponsored segment?
I think they used to, because sometimes they’d chime in. But that hasn’t happened in a long time. Based off that I’m assuming not anymore
i just remembered seeing the video where joey graduated college, damn thats a throw back
What were his let’s plays like?
i only really watched his anime videos, i remember him posting game content but that wasnt really why i watched@@matthew_natividad
Anthonys “smile” is so good
I can get that feeling of isolation and aversion to anything foreign. IDK if it's the same in Australia, but at least from what I've experienced in the US and read about, American society does have that same aversion to outside ideas and cultures. It's just that instead of all outsiders, society moves and changes who they hate. I highly suggest reading on the immigration of the Germans in the early colonial settlement, very interesting stuff, especially when you compare their treatment to the slaves that would come some 200 years later.
I think because America is so big and has basically 50 small countries (states) itself, it's hard for people to sort of narrow down "Americans" as a whole. I grew up and worked in the Northeastern US and the majority of people know languages other than English (and usually it's not just Spanish or French or German, but it's like Thai, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, various African languages, various Native American languages,) and a lot of it is due to how fascinated people are with other foods and cultures and how diverse the US is in allowing access to foreign media. Anime/manga, Manhwa (Korean) and Manhua (Chinese) have all blown up in the last decade especially though like Funimation, Crunchyroll, and webtoons where people WANT to learn more languages and cultures to be able to understand cultures beyond just a piece of media translated in English. I'm purposely learning Japanese so I can understand beyond what works for an English translation and it's so great to watch something in Japanese and know there's a meaning behind stuff
honestly Melbourne is very multicultural so similar in that it depends ^
Agreed
11:17 This is so true! After living here for 10 years now, the utopia/"honeymoon" phase is long gone. However, it still beats my home country even with it's issues. I do like the fact that Joey speaks on the difference between visiting and living in Japan
Complete with the Family Mart socks!
The sarcasm part is so hilarious, because a friend brought his Japanese friend to America for a little while, and he learned sarcasm. He loved it so much, he would only speak sarcastically. to the point that everyone couldn't tell if he was being real. One time, he said he liked a food and everyone thought he was being sarcastic. He wasn't that time lol
11:45 on the topic of perceiving (stereotyping) Japan as futuristic and technologized, I found „Techno-Orientalism“ edited by Roh, Huang and Niu, that interrogates this idea (and broader Asian stereotypes in context of technology) thoroughly through various essays. For me, this helped countered some bias in my own perception, stemming from Anime but also Cyberpunk tropes.
One of the early statements that I found intriguing was the framing of Japan and China in context of technology: „Japan creates technology, but China is the technology. In the eyes of the West, both are crucial engines of the future: Japan innovates and China manufactures.“ (p. 4)
From the back of the book: „Techno-Orientalism investigates the phenomenon of imagining Asia and Asians in hypo- or hyper-technological terms in literary, cinematic, and new media representations, while critically examining the stereotype of Asians as both technologically advanced and intellectually primitive, in dire need of Western consciousness-raising.“
Fascinating, thanks! Will look into it.
I remember in my geography class we had a grad student from Japan in the US. I asked him if he enjoyed manga/anime, and he was so offended I even asked him lol.
Why when manga cafes are everywhere in Japan. Maybe he didn't realise it was a uniquely Japanese thing
my brain read pornography class instead of geography class…
also maybe he was offended because it sounded like you assumed he likes manga/anime because he’s from Japan?
like me being offended if a Japanese person asks me if I like afternoon tea?@@SmugOcelot
back then if you tried searching up anime recommendations, joey’s channel always appeared. it was sort of unavoidable that his youtube channel would appear a lot in the “anime” search on yt. i gave in one day & watched an anime recommendation video of his. i would say that he is partially the reason how i got into anime just because of his explanations, he put a lot of anime & manga fans onto really good anime back in the days when there wasn’t nothing else to do but escape in youtube & cartoon animations
Joey rocking the Famimart socks and I'm here for it LOL. Nice interview too
Joey's song, Moon, is by far the greatest midnight drive music ever.
Omg two of my fav creators togetherrrr~!
I feel at some point Joey will just be the guy who makes videos about every culture
First thing I notice "The Famima socks".
That's true loyalty
Anthony collecting Trash Taste boys like Pokémon cards xD
Really hope Garnt comes on!
joeys outfit is so incredibly fire im crying
Yessirrr, josh the manga lad!!! Collecting the trash taste bois one by one! Hoping grant comes up soon :D and chris
Yooo Joey has Hungarian blood. He is one of us! A small country in the middle of Europe that no one knows. With a dictator president and a dying economy... (at least we're good at kayaking, this year we got 2 nobel prizes and we can swear the best in the world) I've always felt so inexplicably familiar with his face, but now it's understandable. Very good video, golden people. Love, peace, brotherhood.
Hey to those that didn't follow Joey before this video I just want to add a little tidbit.
Regarding his computer exploding, to expand upon the story, Joey was actually playing Nekopara while all of that happened.
Anthony was right about the closest word in English for komorebi being "dappling" or "dappled light."
When he says both languages are his first, I get it. Growing up bilingual you kinda develop both languages at the same rates
9:03 Joey is clowning on Garnt so hard LOLOL
