As someone who loved the show from a purely emotional standpoint, I think it's great hearing about all the cultural context surrounding it and its predecessors. Just like your last two videos that touched on the topic of Japan Sinks, this one is so well produced, informative, and engaging all the way through. Keep up the great work, man!
Fantastic. Best thing about Japan Sinks 2020 is your videos. When is your movie version of Japan Sinks analysis coming to theaters I want to experience the discourse in 5.1 surround.
Your videos and this this channel in general is soooo much underrated. In a sense it brings about a culture, or rather takes the culture inside these films, animations (generally speaking) and writings to surface and points out to things that I personally could only piece together after a few shots at "that" show. And in doing so your "documentaries" help me understand the anime I watch more in-depth, unfortunately I not always have the time to revisit and dig up on the shows I've watched, and hence, give a feeling of satisfaction as it feeds my ego making me feel like "there seems to be a lot more to this show/writing that I just watched/read once". Truly brilliant!!
i really love that you talk a lot about japan sinks, it really puts a lot of things on perspective and is always lovely to see people that say "It does not end here" on a work of art, I would give you some money if i had, so i will left this commentary, take care, goodnight, love you
It is interesting how Japan Sinks 2020 includes multi ethnic elements and mentions, however, coming from a background of someone who isn't a native English speaker (I'm a Québécois, for reference), I really hated how this multi ethnicity was merely said and never shown in any way. The mother is from the Philippines, however like you said there are NO elements in her character that depicts that. She never speaks Filipino, wear dresses from there or anything. Similarly, the kid does not code-switch between English and Japanese (and why doesn't he speak Filipino at least a little bit? The mother would probably at least try to teach him a little..) but merely speaks token phrases in English for no reason, which is mindbogglingly stupid. To me, when viewed from the perspective of encroaching English cultural hegemony through the Internet (which the kid obviously uses), this is just another instance where the erasure of actually interesting cultural representation is happening in favour of appealing to an English audience. Instead of presenting how someone who comes from different cultural backgrounds would engage with them, it's all waved away to focus on how English is the new Lingua Franca and how everyone should speak it, which even in the show ends up completely erasing any Filipino cultural artifacts. Mentions of multiculturalism, certainly, but a total lack of understanding of it or representation is an issue for the show that I cannot stand.

Hi, I would like to add my opinion into this. Also, I never watched ‘Japan Sinks 2020’, so my opinion is pretty weak. I wanted to note that she doesn’t show being close to any Filipino-Japanese in the clips I’ve seen. I’m pretty sure she wouldn’t use Tagalog a lot since most people around her would be speaking Japanese. Though, it would be nice if she taught her kids Tagalog, she might have wanted to protect them from being “different”, that, or she wanted to to learn the native language, and not have them learn another language that would make them seem foreign. But, I’m not sure. Maybe have her relatives calling her, and that would have showed her skills in speaking Tagalog.
There's a thing called "domain" in linguistics. When you learn a language there must be an inner motivation to do so. If the language's domain isn't big enough, the person might understand the language but not speak it because there's no big reason to do so. If anything, the series might try to show how much Japanese they are, like your next "ethnic" Japanese. People assimilate, you know.
Great video and analysis on this great piece of media. Though I will say, before looking through these comments, I didn't know this many people hated this show.
Once again: it bothers me so much that a video of this caliber, with this amount of thought and effort and visual flair put into it, has less than 10k views. I should not be watching this for free, my man.
Amazing video as per usual, the research you put into your videos always inspires, especially with the visual way you present it along with great commentary!
おめでとう。 Glad you got this wrapped up, it turned into quite the project. I enjoyed the video a lot and appreciate how you continue to evolve your style. I felt like I got a really solid understanding of your thesis and the arguments you put forth to support it in this video, so I think you did a great job.
25:53 I didn't know this is actually possible, or that this isn't just added for a dramatizing effect, but actually a real thing that can happen based on what you told here, I might even have to up my 6/10 rating..
You seam like your becoming more relaxed and out-going in your narrations since your earlier videos here on UA-cam..that or you recently starting drinking
Another banger. Would like to point out the audio from both Rebecca and Yuasa seemed lower than your voice and I found myself struggling to hear them speak. Great work!
As much as I think that this show is a massive pile of steaming hot garbage - This has been a really interesting and informative video, as usual. Precise, on point, everything necessary conveyed in just 5 minutes~.. Wait, there's another number behind that 5.. huh. Weird. Maybe my YT player is bugged. Nah, but great work~ o/ Oh, and Pikamee is awesome. 🙃
Y'know I am always curious about further sources to read from but I never find the said paper or book you are talking about FOR FREE. Isn't there a place I can find all that for free, like arXiV is for physics papers?

Hi, I would like to add my opinion into this. Also, I never watched ‘Japan Sinks 2020’, so my opinion is pretty weak. I wanted to note that she doesn’t show being close to any Filipino-Japanese in the clips I’ve seen. I’m pretty sure she wouldn’t use Tagalog a lot since most people around her would be speaking Japanese. Though, it would be nice if she taught her kids Tagalog, she might have wanted to protect them from being “different”, that, or she wanted to to learn the native language, and not have them learn another language that would make them seem foreign. But, I’m not sure. Maybe have her relatives calling her, and that would have showed her skills in speaking Tagalog.
There's a thing called "domain" in linguistics. When you learn a language there must be an inner motivation to do so. If the language's domain isn't big enough, the person might understand the language but not speak it because there's no big reason to do so.

I need to get buffer.
Once again: it bothers me so much that a video of this caliber, with this amount of thought and effort and visual flair put into it, has less than 10k views. I should not be watching this for free, my man.
Excellent craftsmanship throughout this video
You are too kind Eliah!
Amazing video as per usual, the research you put into your videos always inspires, especially with the visual way you present it along with great commentary!
thanks for the kind words!
You make japan sinks 2020 look good
You don't have to think it is lol
Came for the video, stayed for the shout out.
Seriously though, just continuously blown away by your content.
When we collabing Richard?
@@PauseandSelect I would have to say whenever it is you have a project where I could meaningfully contribute.
Love your content man.
Thanks Ciaran!
おめでとう。 Glad you got this wrapped up, it turned into quite the project. I enjoyed the video a lot and appreciate how you continue to evolve your style. I felt like I got a really solid understanding of your thesis and the arguments you put forth to support it in this video, so I think you did a great job.
Thank you very much mator! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Now it's time for me to go back on the grind, haha.
25:53 I didn't know this is actually possible, or that this isn't just added for a dramatizing effect, but actually a real thing that can happen
based on what you told here, I might even have to up my 6/10 rating..
Yess I've been waiting for this! Will add thoughts after :)
sounds good, thanks for watching!
I really hope your content can get more attentions
Thank you very much for the kind words!
Damn you can really sink your teeth into this video

You seam like your becoming more relaxed and out-going in your narrations since your earlier videos here on UA-cam..that or you recently starting drinking
I def stopped drinking, lol, so I think it's the former

Had some good food while watching this
Chipotle?
Another banger. Would like to point out the audio from both Rebecca and Yuasa seemed lower than your voice and I found myself struggling to hear them speak. Great work!
Gotcha, thanks for pointing that out!
Omg the apex of the thumbnail drawing made it in
Of course I made a promise!
For the algorithm, I leave you this comment, as it will help your interactions, and get you more views

Shoutout to bigfoot at the end
Ye lol
YES, the last frame is there!

This is your most digestible video, the only part I didn't get was when you said Ayumu's wound is a permanent marker of her subjectivity.
thanks rumiko!
With that beard style you look like either a someone who works for an university or a someone who makes craft beer.
I am the former, though now I'm thinking I should become the latter.
@@PauseandSelect A new channel called 'Brew and Select' maybe...
@@otto_jk heh
Finally, some good fucking food.

Didn't knew about this theatrical release thing... hope they don't butcher the meaning of the series.
Let's see how it turns out!
As much as I think that this show is a massive pile of steaming hot garbage - This has been a really interesting and informative video, as usual. Precise, on point, everything necessary conveyed in just 5 minutes~.. Wait, there's another number behind that 5.. huh. Weird. Maybe my YT player is bugged. Nah, but great work~ o/
Oh, and Pikamee is awesome. 🙃
Pikamee hell yeah
Y'know I am always curious about further sources to read from but I never find the said paper or book you are talking about FOR FREE. Isn't there a place I can find all that for free, like arXiV is for physics papers?
I love you
thanks!
wow

The subtitles at 32:05 are amazing. Your translation skills are truly 下手.

Such a shame your videos get so little views.
Honestly, I am a little saddened, but there's not much I can do about it, so that's just the luck of the draw.
Good disaster show
Stop giving 2020 ideas man.

im hacking youtube with this comment.
