@@julesbakundukize1469 There’s a lot of places hiring, but it’s very hard as a foreigner. Sadly, because of foreigners, and the disrespect most(not all) of them treat toward Japanese is making Japan Anti-foreigner. So it’s very hard. I also wouldn’t recommend it because Japans work culture is very demanding, and if your a female it’s worse
@@sonneillionx7705what? Black, white, Indian and Asians are being robbed, jumped and/or killed everywhere everyday. Really sad that people instantly think of blacks being only hurt in the US
People need to understand that there is racism everywhere. Look at Japan's history. They were almost never tolerant of other races. It's why I just roll my eyes when weebs say that Japan is a "peaceful utopia" just because they like anime. Aside from their anti blackness, xenophobia and nazi ideologies, their leniency to predators is astounding.
I've lived in Japan as an AA for 7 years. It was very much a utopia. When I was there, they treated blacks very respectfully as well as all people. The comments in many of the videos with AA's and other Americans calling it magical was true. Many of us AA's called it heaven on earth. Had nothing to do with watching anime😂. We experienced it first hand and not reading history books It wasn't perfect, but it was the closest I've seen to perfect The extreme racism, toxicity and poison is definately a product of the US. They spread negative images of Blacks all over the world and that gives many countries pause now about African Americans.
This was my way to learn English. Friends went to popular places and ended up speaking their language because even I come from a small country so many of us go to this places. So I went to Columbia, South Carolina. Nobody spoke my language and I had to learn English very quickly.
That's nice brother. South Carolina native i prefer the country side of places when i travel u can learn a lot from the country parts outside city limits its more quiet as well for meditation
I went to Tokyo my first trip to Japan and had a blast. Going back next spring and plan to venture out. Don’t let one person’s experience/opinion have you miss out something you actually may enjoy.
From all the blk UA-camrs who live/lived in Japan, they say that going to a rural area is a bad idea. B/c there were more issues as far as being blk there.
I'm in Japan now and I didn't care for Tokyo stayed one day 😂

He’s right stay off the beaten path! Be a pioneer, and the opposite of “birds of a feather flock together’. Some people of different nations like to see foreigners attempt to assimilate to their language, customs and society! And they will offer their assistance if you’re a sincere person!
There is resentment against Americans by some Japanease. It all depends on where you go. You could possibly encounter hostility in some places due to the behaviors of other Americans in the past. Also, there is understandably some resentment over the war in a lot of the older Japanease.
Humility, respect for their culture, and a pleasant, calm, demeanor can reduce that tremendously. Yes, I intentionally didn't say eliminate. Also, the better one can communicate, the more respect you'll gain..... immediately! Just human nature... an "outsider" that can speak a local's tongue is the MOST important & powerful tool in a traveler's toolkit.
I lived in tokyo for 4 years. I ain't tood at Japanese but 8 did get within the history and culture the fun thing about there being other places than tokyo close by is that there free and pretty easy to visit I went to other places than tokyo but lived in tokyo either way I had a blast
I just want to visit I’m not trying to live there any tips and suggestions. I plan on going may 2k24 so I’m attempting to get some basic Japanese under my belt conversation wise
It's funny seeing other Americans in different countries, black or white. Everybody is so suddenly friendly lmao....Bring that friendliness back home to America
This advice is mid. Tokyo is huge and tokyo dialect is literally the standard across japan. This is like telling people don't go to california or new york because it's not american enough. Why suggest people go to the countryside if they aren't into that kind of life?
I think he was trying to get at the fact the large cities like Tokyo will usually accommodate English speakers (or whatever language) due to the vastness of foreigners passing through. When you go to smaller cities, or even full inaka, learning Japanese quickly becomes a necessity rather than an option.
Yeah it makes no sense to travel as far as japan is and not go to Tokyo lol. Many people aren't going to japan multple times so why would they miss out on such a big city?
LOL yea no, absolutely not. i did India by myself for two weeks + there are plenty people there my color + darker! i can only imagine Japan. nah. i'm good. unless i'm going w| a native or visiting a local i trust, like i did in India i'm gonna have to.....not do that. LOLOL this channel + Shogo's will have to be enough for now. i'm so happy it all worked out for him tho!
In India there's a caste system. Not to mention a lot of whyte worship and self-hate. Many will show hostility to people with the same dark skin tone like them, before they show hostility to the eurocentrists/Englishmen that robbed them of $45 trillion.
I’ve heard of reluctance to communicate with foreigners that don’t know the culture nor the language. Worse in the countryside than cities. Any truth to that?
No different than in The US, Germany, Nigeria, Italy, Brazil, Poland, Turkey, etc. If you don't take the time to show respect for their culture/language, why should they take the time to respect you?
@@fibonacchio-matrixjones6064 Uhm…. tourists don’t come to stay. Any expectation of language fluency to visit a country for a week is not realistic. I think being respectful is reasonable no matter where you travel. Most tourists will pick up some culture during a visit… but a week visit won’t see many able to walk and talk like a native, so to speak. Thanks for your reply… 9 months after mine!
@@MadAudi- As a general rule for myself, I would learn at least the basics of any language before visiting the country of its origin. I think going to another country expecting to be accommodated in such a way would be presumptuous, even disrespectful in some cases.
Ew. The wording of this was absolutely ridiculous and he's old enough to have known better. All he had to do was leave it at "go somewhere more rural" and maybe add in "somewhere that doesn't heavily cater towards tourism and has remained steeped in Japanese culture for the most immersive experience".....
I agree. Imagine how miserable life must be when you have nothing to offer to society, no personality, no nothing because your entire being revolves around having an inferiority complex
Did you really generalize black people this kind of mindset? Dude most black people who are living in Japan says it’s better over there than the United States. So what are you talking about? Who says anything this has something to do about race? Man people like you always got something to say about black people. Y’know instead of demonizing a community you should pay attention to yourself
Nuance, my friend, will work in your favor. There are people of every creed and color that will cry prejudice or racism at something trivial, just as there are people of every creed and color that are able to critically think, and be sensible.

He is right get away from the tourist areas if you want to grow in language and culture
As a Japanese person, what he’s saying is completely true

@@TomasuDesuit make sense, I don’t understand when people go to other countries and be disrespectful for its people.
Knowing that there are black people in various rural parts of Japan and not just the large cities is so comforting to me.
Are they getting jump robed or killed like you do to them in the states?

@@sonneillionx7705 Being negative doesn’t make you feel any better. Also you clearly watch the news too much; go outside, interact with people.

Agree. I am living in a very rural part of Japan, and I learnt so much Japanese language and cultures in a month than a year in Tokyo/Osaka.
Which place are you leaving at? Cause right now, I'm like contemplating trying to travel the world.
Where are you living now
Tokyo is like time square of new york

What happened to you in India?
In Japan not as bad. Many people don’t say but racism and discrimination is 1000x worse in India, even people who appear to be the same ethnicity!
Definitely can't compare Japanese to Indians. I wouldn't even do India alone as a man. In fact, probably would never go India at all.
In India there's a caste system. Not to mention a lot of whyte worship and self-hate.
Many will show hostility to people with the same dark skin tone like them, before they show hostility to the eurocentrists/Englishmen that robbed them of $45 trillion.
