    For this week's video, we're doing a good old fashioned TL;DR, where we're gonna talk about some of the weird ideas we've seen floating around the internet. Hopefully we can ease some people's worries before coming here. Fingers crossed :D

      i loved tldr too, but i dunno if regular trdrs would work now. i feel like when they started it was before (or, during) the big korea tourism boom, so there wasn't a lot of useful cultural content available. for japan though there is SO MUCH content, and with that a huge contingent of people who are going to pour in and "WELL ACTUALLY" the hell out of them no matter what they say.
      i'm not saying they shouldn't bring it back, just i understand if they don't want to lol

    "We've been living in Japan for close to four years now" Oh my gosh... has it been that long!!! My late hubby and I used to watch starting towards your last year in Korea. It made him so happy to watch your adventures as he struggled with ALS taking his strength in 2017 and after he was gone I have continued watching just as we used to together. Today would have been his 40th birthday. Thank you both.

    @KnightJent 5 років тому +65

    I remember when I was in college, I joined a Japanese club with my friends. There were these Japanese exchange students that were there because one of the Japanese professors asked them to come. I recall a group of students came up to one of them and asked what anime and manga she liked. She said that she's not really interested in that kind of stuff. I asked what she thought of America so far and what's she's been doing since she got here. She said she experienced a little bit of culture shock and saw a Maroon 5 concert. Then I thought she's a totally normal person! She put in so much effort to learn our language and is probably one of the lucky ones to be accepted into the exchange program. Yet, there she was, being bombarded with questions about anime. After that, I backed away from the club, because it wasn't a "Japanese" club, it was an anime club.
    I'm not against anime and manga, or anything like that. When someone learn about Japan through anime and manga all their life I can see how it can warp a person's sense of reality. But, I hope that people can separate their interests from reality a bit more...

      I always feel like "Japanese Club" in college is just the professional name for "Anime Club". It's cool that y'all had exchange students but it's also a shame it all turned out all about anime. I hope the girl had a good time with the exchange program tho!

    • @KnightJent
      @KnightJent 5 років тому +3

      @@BAKAoLOVE I'm sure she did. She didn't really spend much time on weekly club meetings. Just the bigger club events, like our university-wide cultural festival.
      Before, our university had 2 Japanese professors. One supervised the anime club and the other professor looked after the Japanese club. Once the anime club professor left, they all migrated to the Japanese club. Within a year my friend, the Japanese club president, was switched to an anime-centered president. It's a shame, really. New members that are genuinely curious about Japan are deterred because of all the anime they watch during club time.

    • @sallysavage9609
      @sallysavage9609 5 років тому

      I love anime but always thought I was strange for liking it so much. I never really thought about the fact that regular Japanese people are as into cartoons as a nerd like me. Although tv and music is just as important there. I even learned some Japanese from watching so much anime and listening to j rock.

      2) How would you personally rate Japan (from culture to technology, architecture, food, local products, scenery/landscape, standard of living/quality of life, etc.) on a scale level of 1 to 10 ?
      3) What is your overall impression with the Japanese people ?
      4) If you have 3 words or more to describe Japan, what would it be ?

      1) Do you consider Japan as a highly developed and advanced country ?
      2) How would you personally rate Japan (from culture to technology, architecture, food, local products, scenery/landscape, standard of living/quality of life, etc.) on a scale level of 1 to 10 ?
      3) What is your overall impression with the Japanese people ?
      4) If you have 3 words or more to describe Japan, what would it be ?

    I missed TL;DRs so much!! The advice and info here was really helpful ( your TL;DRs usually are 🥰). It makes Japan seem like a more welcoming tourist spot. I also love that you guys always encourage others to unapologetically do what they love but also challenge themselves. I'm really hoping to go to Japan in a few years, and I will definitely be keeping this video in mind! 💜

    HUB!!!! My husband and i visited Japan not to long ago from Scotland and honestly we loved HUB. We went in as a joke but it was actually a near replica of what alot of our local village pubs look like here (was also the only place we found with decent cider on draft) it was so surreal we couldnt stop laughing it really felt like we had teleported back home for dinner.
