That awkward moment when you ARE actually half Japanese but you don't look like this. Half Japanese people like me (or hafu's what ever you like to call) are ALL very different.
Miyashita Exactly! There is no fool proof way to look half Japanese because its an ethnicity you are born with! Plus half Japanese does not always mean half Japanese half white so this trend is just aggravating!
Legit i think you're confused with the title of the video and the actual content of the vid. Her accent is pretty heavy but i think she was talking about a Japanese trend that happened and she copied it and showed you how to do it. The trend was taking a little bit of western style makeup and making it their own. Pretty sure no one looks like this anymore tho
The title of this video is misleading. In the video she's explaining a trend that Japanese girls do where as the title states she's trying to look half Japanese.
Okay, I respect your love for Japanese culture bcuz I too love Japanese culture as well but I'm going to say this and I'm in no way trying to be offensive. I mean I understand that there's a Japanese fashion style influenced by Western cultures such as crop tops you can find in H&M and Forever 21. But if you want to show respect to Japanese culture, don't distort or modify your looks in order to honor the Japanese culture. If you love anything or anyone, show respect as well. I love Japan and Korea and I respect both cultures. Love and respect are two different things. They may have some similarities but they're not the same. It's possible to simultaneously love and disrespec anything. I'm Vietnamese and I love my culture as much as I love Japanese and Korean culture. I was born Vietnamese and there's nothing I can do to change it. I will never want to become Japanese or Korean because I'm born Vietnamese, I can't change my ethnicity and because I love what I am. People need to accept their own cultures, race, and ethnicity. Hating one's own race/ethnicity is wrong. It's internalized racism. It doesn't matter what ethnicity/race you are, you're still beautiful inside and out. and just like what Joey aka The Anime Man said, "If you want to look half-Japanese, be born half-Japanese."
I get your point. I'm just thinking, being born into a culture is not your choice. If you don't feel like you belong in your own culture, there's nothing wrong with that in my opinion. I feel like there are just so many people who try to say "stay in your own culture, country, ethnic group, etc!" and that if someone doesn't like their own culture, they're "racist". I just feel like a culture should be open to anyone who loves it and wants to "join". Just because you're of another culture or race doesn't mean you can't belong in another one, too. Just imagine if an immigrant came to America and wasn't allowed to integrate into society, the culture, etc and call themselves American because they're of another race.... Doesn't that sound racist? So why is it not in this case, with Japan and non-Japanese people? I'm just interested in your thoughts on this. I looked through the comments and you looked the least hostile and most reasonable lol XD Oh, and I almost forgot, there are fashion trends in Japan that focuses on making them look more western, and also more like someone from Victorian England (lolita), and no one calls that racist. I'm so confused lol.
ChocoTheTiger I understand. I respect your opinion. I just believe it's not right to try to become a race/ethnicity that you're not. I *know* that being born [insert race/ethnicity] isn't a choice. (I thought that I clearly implied it in my previous comment). I meant show respect as well if you want to show love because they're two different things not the same. Most of the time I'm not tolerant of anyone who tries to be a race/ethnicity they're not but if they're polite and generous then I will definitely tolerate them. I saw so many harsh comments telling those who're actually half-Japanese who got offended after seeing this video to stfu and that they don't have the right to get offended and it drives me crazy. It's freedom of speech and expression. You can't tell people that they're not allowed to get offended because it's unfair. And thanks for being polite and civil with your response. I expected hate comments like "STFU SHE CAN DO ANYTHING SHE WANTS AND YOU CAN'T GET OFFENDED!" from Angelics or even comments from weeaboos later on but looks like I'm wrong. Whoo.
ChocoTheTiger I'll be happy to share my opinions. 😊 The Japanese fashion trend, Lolita is fascinating. I fucking love it. There's one Japanese fashion trend that I'm not interested in, it's ganguro. It's bcuz you get tanned and I hate getting tanned. The trend died out a long time ago and there's hardly any women and girls who use it. And there's a Western influenced fashion trend going on in Japan and South Korea. So many Japanese and Korean girls wear outfits you can find in H&M. And of course the T-shirts or crop tops say words in English (mostly swear words) that they may or may not know what it says. Loving a culture without disrespecting it, I find it simple. Just be polite, calm and use manners. I just think it's necessary because you will give off a good impression otherwise people won't take you seriously and might look down on you and it's very depressing. And yeah I agree some people may unintentionally disrespect a culture bcuz of ignorance. Lots of weeaboos and koreaboos are like that. Some weeaboos get angry if they meet a Japanese person who doesn't do stuff/aren't what they expect all Japanese to do or be. (Their expectations for the Japanese are unreasonably high). I love anime and Japan but most weeaboos bug me. They're analogous to Christian fundamentalists. The bad apples of the Christian community.
I'm half Asian (Vietnamese) and half American. My parents were born in Vietnam. I friggin love all the cute fashion and those gachas (and anime of course) but I would never change my nationality. I just admire some small things
Okay so Half-Japanese isn't a 'look' it's a genetic combination. So are you implying that you can make anyone look (perfectly)half-Japanese from their base genetic heritage, or just Japanese-White? Also the reason I used 'perfectly' is because genetically it's nearly impossible to show half-half of the traits from both family's from genetic recombination(I.e reproduction)
Kakashi Hatake Aww thats sweet :) So I'm assuming by your user name you're Japanese? Is that correct? If so what is your overall opinion on this persons videos?
+xX “WRPBullet” Xx I'm part Japanese and this broad is an idiot. she thinks you can look Japanese because of eye make up. I can't stand her and she over does this.
Nicole Secomb I think she(or he I don't know) has a vaid arguement. She's offended that this person is trying to imitate her genetic makeup and culture through trivial and shallow means.
Nicole Secomb Personaly I hope she takes this comment to heart. I know it sounds mean, but it's clearly offending a lot of people. I mean she's trying to "grace" a culture through imitating it's people. That may sound like a good thing, but she clearly doesnt have any idea what that means.
well put some black coil powder under your eyes,make your hair freeze, don't brush your teeth for a few days then you will become to looklike a weabo. also put glasses to look like hard weaboo
a white girl tryna look asian. meanwhile here in Asia most of girls wanted to look like white girls. dyed our hair blonde, put up a pair of blue circle lense, etc. lol. what an irony
+예리의 음악 Why do some Asians want to have a lighter skin tone or bigger eyes if they haven't or why do some people want to be thinner if they aren't or have bigger boobs if they haven't? Stupid question.
mogorisempai What is worse Wearing make up to look like another race or getting a SURGERY to look like another race? Japanese people ALWAYS mocked other races, Ganguro doesn't tell you anything? The mocking of black people? Plus eye and face surgery to get a "sharp" face like whites? Uh? Just look up, it's true, lol.
sidenote: ganguro isn't "mocking black people" it's based off of a religion/creature from their mythology that happened to become a popular trend. Maybe YOU should "just look it up"
@@levihackerman8670 oh, her mom had forced her to do this channel and the content on it. There was this whole thing a short while back where sh*t hit the fan and the truth of what was happening got out. She ended up breaking down on stream a couple of times until eventually she got out. I think she moved away and is living how she wants to now though. I mean i hope she is, the whole thing obviously took its toll on her. I hope this makes sense and explains some of the issue.
***** No, you are wrong. As a matter of fact; you are so clueless that I might just block your account because your ignorance gives me a headache. Besides; I wasn't talking to you in the first place. Mind your own damn business!
Why is everyone finding this problematic, can somebody explain? UPD: As I understand, the girl just wanted to show a haafu Japanese makeup trend which was originally meant to make you look like a half-foreigner. She admires Asian culture. She doesn't mock Asians, she doesn't say anything bad about them, she doesn't even assure that her makeup is 100% accurate and shows real half-Asians. It's just a trend that wasn't even created by her. And agaaain, people are so easily offended for no reason. There is nothing you can do to not be labeled as racist at this point.
i know this was in 2014 and this is 2018, but ppl who are new to her channel, as u are witnessing in the comments, alot of people are misunderstanding Venus alot for the past 8 or so years. she is Swiss German who fell inlove with the style and culture of japan and many other things. in her videos "how to look like a Korean Girl" and this one right here, she is explaining the trends and fashion, she lives in japan, she isnt a racist, she isnt pretending she is korean or japanese, she explains it many times, she is just sharing trends and making video tutorials.
Angie Garcia Most people attacking her ARE ACTUALLY Japanese. Maybe you wouldn’t understand because ... you aren’t Japanese. Caucasians aren’t a minority.
@@emmakato3744 acting and saying or even TRYING to look like something you're not is wrong, it's like me. [A white american. . ] saying I'm korean, or indian. [I gave an example, sorry] Then we got people sexualizing Korean, Asians, japanese people, and so on. . .just gor being born that way and putting on makeup to 'look' like what they want to be . [theirians/kins are fine when it comes to this if it isn't racist or whatever, but that's a whole different story] Now I sound like I'm ranting, I'm just gonna stop this here before I piss myself off. 😅
im half japanese half korean and if im finna be honest... white people need to stop doing shit like this then be like "oMg stOp aTtAckIng hEr" like nah shes white smh. imagine seeing a vid "how to look black mixed" like NANI?
Why is she being hated for is she did it cause 1. It’s cute makeup from a magazine 2. She never claimed to be Japanese 3. Her mom forced her to do this videos
This is NOT racists at all. Japan has always influenced by western fashion and make-up because of the "look." Love the look and easy to do. Love you Venus
Becky M Racism: a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving "the idea the one's own race is more superior and has the right to rule others." From what I can see, she is not saying her race is superior, nor does it seem she believes she should rule. She isn't making fun of the japanese race, she is more praising and has a great interest in their culture. That is not racism. Having an interest in different cultures, I believe, can open doors to acceptance. People see others taking a large interest in another culture and label it as being racist, which I find laughable. I t is nowhere close to being racist. Racism is discriminating, and putting down a race. She is not making fun, making jokes, criticizing, making racial slurs, nor is she saying the race is trash. She is showing interest, likes learning about japan and the trends that go among the girls of japan. She enjoys the fashions and the food. She embraces their culture. Like I said. I think if everyone would embrace different cultures, there would be more acceptance in this world. This is not racist.
i'm half japanese and I've never seen any hapa celebrity or any other half asian i know with an eye colour that isn't a hazel/dark green or brown, and yes, dark brown is common among half asians. Idk what tf you're doing with your eye enlarging contacts because you just look more like a porcelain doll than you did before. Hapas don't generally have mono lids, just maybe hooded or downturned eyes, but their eyes aren't huge like you have in the video.
EmmuFlicks I am half asian and have blue / green eyes from my dad side . The amount of times people tell me i am lying when i tell they i am asian (half korean) is frustrating
personally half japanese and half european. and I personally look 100% european. I mean people doesn't notice that until I say my name. and personally I don't find this make up so much half jp. I'm not saying that she isn't cute,but only she doesn't look like the halfs who I'm habituated to see. Sorry for the bad english--- Gimme the high five half(?) (I know that you commented 1 month ago,but honestly I have nothing to do and ur comment attracted me)
i will say, i am half japanese myself from japan and am extremely jealous this girl looks more asian than me but then again i am also half black. but i don't even have a smooth face or asian eyes. so this video help me in a way. i often use makeup as a way to connect with my culture and part for me to connect is by looking like i belong. it is my culture but it shameful i do not look like it and i feel disconnected. i don't fit into asian-centric or afro-centric beautiy standards. so tutorials like this help me to reconnect with my culture.
For those of you who came here to criticize this video please look at the description box! She was introducing a makeup trend in Japan, she was not saying that this makeup will literally make you half Japanese. This was not supposed to be aimed at people who want to be Japanese. She said "can foreigners look half?" as in, lets try this trend out. Also doesn't anybody remember the trend where some Japanese girls wear blonde wigs and contact lens to emulate the "western" or doll look? Did we ever laugh at them? Got offended and say "how dare they mock us!"Or did you just say "oh it's a trend"? Also guys its the opposite way around. Not for non-Japanese people to look half Japanese but for Japanese people to look half because it's a trend. And for those who want to thumbs down this comment go ahead. Like I care. I'm free to speak my mind.
This isn't racist, stop trying to make problems out of nothing. Obviously this isn't what every half-Japanese girl looks like, she assumed people would be able to realize that. No one is stupid enough to believe that. She's just saying that this is how some half-Japanese girls do their makeup. I don't see anyone getting triggered at her makeup videos that are things like "How to look like a boy" and "How to look like a Victoria's Secret model" because for those, people have the common sense to know that she doesn't mean that every person in those groups look like that. In addition, as for these kinds of tutorials where it's "How to look like a Korean girl" and "How to look half Japanese", she bases them off of tutorials she finds in magazines published in these countries. And this is proof most of the critics aren't watching the videos! For this one, it starts off assuming that the people using the makeup tutorial are already Japanese. It teaches them how to do their makeup to look half white. Notice how no white people are getting triggered at that? Then stop getting triggered for Japanese people who don't care! Just stop trying to find reasons to hate people, geez. And yes, I am Asian
ThatWeirdThingInTheCorner this is not a video on how half Japanese girls do their makeup. It’s a video on how to LOOK Japanese. What if she made a video on being half black? Doing black face and everything. It’s just as bad Japanese people aren’t some cartoon you can fetishize
ThatWeirdThingInTheCorner And look at the majority of the comments they are Japanese people who DO CARE. She had no respect for the culture. Since you aren’t Japanese YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND. You will never understand the hardship of being Japanese. She won’t either. She wants to look Japanese so bad but will NEVER BE. She loves fetishizing us so much making us seem like some imaginary mermaid or some shit. WE ARE PEOPLE FOR FUCKS SAKE. Those Victoria’s Secret model and boy tutorials you are talking about ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Boys and Victoria’s Secret Models don’t experience racism and fetishism. Or their culture being stripped for them or used for the wrong reasons. DONT EVER COMPARE THE TWO.
@@hikaeggyolk2759 Well remove the stick from your arse and man up then. Whiteys don't give a shit that she's trying to look half white, so I don't see why Asians should be so triggered about her also looking half Asian. It just seems like such a silly thing to be offended by.
its not racist she did arabic makeup and i didn't go to the comments and say this is racist , how will a video be racist you may ask ? if the video WAS ATTACKING THE CULTURE . she said with makeup how to look like half Asian she didn't say how to be Asian . so it's fine , personally no one can lie that Asian people might say < i want to look half american > or american people would say < i want to look half European > the media is all about not accepting who the are or where the are from so i get the whole racist think is coming from . but if the video didn't say bad thing's about the culture and actually likes or adores the culture it's not racist < btw i'm not attacking any culture because i love almost every culture so no hate i'm just saying this for the people who say this is raciest >
A bit insensitive when sue the hafu look is a fad in some instances but generally hafu experience marginalization and she is trying to market the look of someone's fetishized ethnicity... kind of weird. I'm a bit of a mutt with family from Trinidad and England and I get asked questions by people of every race because I look sort of like them but something is 'off' and it can make me feel lie I don't really fit into any one category >_> You can make yourself look one way but its not always fun for those who look like that all the time.
Plus can she make up her mind whether she wants to be more japanese or parading around the fact Eurocentrism makes Japanese girls want to look more western? (as well as the rest of the world feeling the need to look white european, like her)
Little Wolf Taima Yeah, I'm half Chinese half Italian, and I get a bunch of Japanese girls asking me how I do my makeup at school. They get angry when I tell them that I look like this all the time, especially when I say I don't like the way I look. This fad can't die down soon enough, but I still like some of VenusAngelic's videos.
Well if your profile picture is of you, I'd say you look beautiful... But on the other note, I agree with you it's weird that it's a fad in some cases, but, you'll find videos of any "how to look...etc" for those who are remotely interested, but I do agree with you. :)
im half japanese and half canadian (caucasian) and I totally understand what you mean. not fitting in and stuff. but I personally love not fitting in & being different. I lived in japan for part of my life & the half look has definitely been popular/admired for a really long time & got me a lot of attention there (modelling jobs etc). in canada I get some pretty crude asian jokes though & more negative attention at school. I would rather have people admiring how I look than making fun of it (I guess im a little selfish) so the hafu trend really doesnt bother me too much
Please stop judging her from just this video. At least know some background from her before you go off with your comments. She was abused by her mother. Her mom made her to make vids to make money off of her. This problem was just recently resolved. This video was two years ago. This doesn't represent her current self. English is not her first language. So of course it will sound off. This was actually a trend. Most people are just pointing their fingers at her and not the trend like 😒
dude right? thanks. people are just so stupid sometimes. that it's a trend that came from japan seems to go above a lot of their heads. i have no idea why einshine and his butt-buddy (forgot his name😂) doesn't see that either living in japan and having an idea how people there see hafus.
if you really think about it, this isn’t as bad as it seems, Japanese people are doing the exact same thing just in opposite directions but nobody says anything here in Japan, (yes i am half Japanese and am 100% East Asian) it is completely normal for anyone to change their appearances to look as white as possible and they would only be praised for it yet if it was the opposite, a white/non asian trying to look half asian everyone gets bashed, i am not saying it is okay, it will always be wrong and sad to try and look a race your not. I am saying that if over here in Japan, people try look very white its normal, why isn’t it in foreign countries. Or if it isn’t in foreign countries, why is it in Japan? 本当に考えてみれば、これは見た目ほど悪くはありません。日本人はまったく同じことを反対方向にやっていますが、ここ日本では誰も何も言いません（はい、私は半分日本人で、100％東アジア人です）誰もができるだけ白く見えるように外見を変えるのは完全に正常であり、それが反対である場合にのみ賞賛されるでしょう、白人/非アジア人が半分アジア人に見えようとすると恥ずかしいと思います大丈夫です、あなたのレースを見てみることは常に間違っていて悲しいでしょう。私は、ここ日本で人々が通常のように非常に白く見えるようにしようとすると、なぜ海外ではそうではないのかと言っています。それとも海外にないのなら、なぜ日本にあるのでしょうか？
YES! Asia literally copied white people for hundreds of years and they are poor things, but when a white person wants to look Asian they are an Asian fisher! Awful
Diffrance in culture, both are kinda bad, im america especially minorities are opressed, this isnt realistic, its stereotyping and also not okay to pretend to be a dif race
First of all, have any of you Asians or half Asians asked yourself, "why does she try to be all cute and Asian?" Maybe it's because she finds your culture amazing and interesting and really wants to be a part of it. Just because she wears what happens to be "trendy" in Japan doesn't make her racist. Are you gunna call someone who had a sex-change "sexist" because they switched genders? She loves your culture, so why not embrace someone who respects you guys? When she made the comment about the "dark brown eyes" not being able to work, that's because of the contact lenses colors.
Maybe understand what respect is first. Putting on a ridiculous accent, for one, is not respect in the slightest. Go study up on Japanese culture, what the Japanese have been through in dominantly white countries, like America and their internment camps for Japanese citizens, where hundreds died of poor conditions and exposure. Yet now white people are turning around and saying they "respect" the Japanese by portraying these ridiculous characters that are only a very, very small portion of the Japanese culture, and a very new one at that. It's okay to love the clothing, to showcase and create Japanese trends and styles, but to literally try and look "half Japanese" is horrendous. It's also pointing out that she believes being "half Japanese" is better or "cuter" than a full Japanese person, hence the brown eyes comment. This is blatantly racist, but I cannot expect you to understand that. A lot of half asians and asians in western cultures are discriminated against and stereotyped almost for their whole lives, yet some white girl comes along and she's looked at like a style icon for doing it. We need to educate ourselves as white people. It is our duty, our payment for the horrendous things our ancestors did to almost every other marginalized group in the world. So don't you dare assume to know what racism is, or tell someone to "accept it as a compliment" when you will NEVER face racism in your life.
You can't just say all "white" people, because yes, America is and always will be a very racist country. Thankfully, I'm not American and was not born in America. The girl who created this video is not American either. She is Hungarian/Swiss. I don't know why she does the accent, but I do know, that she is not making fun of being half-Asian. She specifically says that in Japan, looking half-Asian is a new trend. So maybe you should look at the social media in japan and depict THEM as being racist for making it a new social standard to be a half-Asian. And btw, I do understand what it's like to be discriminated for the reason that I am not an American, I am an immigrant living in America. I've been stereotyped many times in my life but you can't just jump to conclusions that everything someone does or says is racist.
Rosanna Holod Yes, all white people. Period. You will never face racism because you are white. Period. You are so ridiculously ignorant. You may have been stereotyped, but you will not be discriminated against based on your eurocentric features, and you will never know how trivial that is. This is racism at its finest.
I'm sorry, but YOU are ignorant, and extremely naive. I'm extremely against racism and the fact that you are are so blind to realize that Asians are equally as racist as many others just shows how sad you are.
I wanna go to Japan when I am over because I love the traditions and lifestyle so I wanna follow the latest trends but I think actually making yourself look Japanese is not the way to go
Why are you guys all not using uur brains and just saying whatever? She is not being rasist, Asian people instead of being offended should feel proud when they see this type of videos, this girl admires asian culture and find their people so beautiful that sh e probably wishes she was asian as well. And since she isn't, She's trying to at least look like one. I say this because that is just my case. I think Asian people areee so beautiful and im always trying to find a way to get the little eye bags haha and stuff and how is that rasist? Like Oh yeah I hate asians so much i wanna look like them? I mean geez use uur heads people.
Go ahead, if you wanna look Asian, then do it. But, if you're gonna do that, you're gonna learn how to deal with all the everyday racism we face because of our appearances.
If it was a video called how to get a lighter skin tone, then yeah, it's fine. But it's trying to say this is how all half-Japanesse look. And now that I know that she didn't do it on her own free will, it's actually very sad
To all haters on this comment section. I know ur self esteem is really low to understand that she just chose the wrong words for her video title smh she just wanted to introduce us the popular make up trends from japan and YeS she did a good job.. so take a minute to think about your jealousy and ... stop writing such horrible things. It should be an honor to you asian people that someone love and respect your culture.
Frank Lars We were all engaged in a fruitful discussion whereas you were just making yourself look like an idiot by using racist and sexist language. Maybe YOU need to go somewhere else where they accept your childish bitching. Next time go do your research on why these things happen before you comment. Because NOBODY is interested in your racist views.
I guess most people get it wrong! "Half japanese" is a japanese make up trend to look less japanese. It doesn't mean people from america or europe people should look japanese! But japanese people use this kind of make up to look less japanese! And she just shows how to use this make up to get a kinda hipster look but she says with no word it would make you look japanese! So just pay attention what the video is about instead of just hate! -.-
She is white she is saying makeup will make you look like your Japanese but she don't act like one and she has no knowledge watching this video makes me loose brain cells
I'm half asian, I was bullied a little in school (in the US), but I still think this concept is cool, and frankly I'm flattered that someone wants to look like my race :)
this is offensive, she is using my culture / looks as an "accessory". also psa: if u aren't half Japanese/Japanese u don't get a say in what does and doesn't offend us.
+Jennie H. I am Japanese. You either are Japanese or you aren't. And you aren't, so you can stop acting like you have the authority to decide what/what doesn't offend me.
WATCH EXOS MONSTER well two things one is if your Asian and get annoyed by this vid and want to punish them and you type lots of things and two is go watch Bts it's good for you
I'm half Japanese and half Vietnamese, and she cannot just do whatever. This is making me very uncomfortable to the fact that she thinks all mixed Japanese look like this. I also do not support anything having to do with makeup changing ethnic group or race. It is dumb and racist. I am very annoyed and mad because this is how westerners see us.
+Solrac I don't remember her exact words. He spoke a few sentence in Japanese (and he was born and raised in Japan I think, so his Japanese must be pretty good). And she made a comment, trying to correct him. Like she knows it better. Go search for the video from frank called 'weeaboos' maybe her comment is still there.
People saying "I don't get how this is racist" is because you are uneducated. Of course you don't see how it is racist, you don't have to deal with racism every day of your life. Please stop defending people's problematic ways because it's a person you like, it happens, no one is perfect and she's not trying to be offensive, but, you need to acknowledge, IT IS. Stop silencing and erasing what people of color especially Asian people of color, are saying just because you're defending against something you're not very educated on. You need to LISTEN and UNDERSTAND, especially if you are white and BLIND to these problems because of your privilege of being white.
I'm sorry if I seemed upset, it wasn't my intention. I agree with your approach and didn't mean to take any "shortcuts". I just think that people exagerate a lot. From my experience, I don't consider this video offensive at all. This video which has zero impact on people, even Asians, and actual discriminating issues people deal with because of their "race" (not used to using this word, the concept of "race" for humans doesn't exist in France) are just not the same thing in my opinion. Same for your conclusion, she's not really "promoting" any stereotypical view. It's purely physical. It's a fact that most Asians, not only Japanese people, have slightly slanted eyes, it's natural and true to a certain degree to say it. Using this feature to harm in any way a person can be blamed though. I've watched dozens of makeup tutorial called "how to look like ...". For me it doesn't come across as "racism". For example, there are so many "how to look like a kpop star" or "how to look korean" tutorials, but nobody screams "racism", probably because the girls doing it are mostly Asians. It doesn't shock me to see a caucasian girl trying to do the same (her only purpose is to look "pretty"). Asian girls, who do makeup tutorials on how to look like a random hollywood star, also use tricks to make their eyes look bigger, like "white people", and nobody complains. As you said, what the black and north africans around my neighbourhood do is discriminatory. But I think it's clearly different from what this venus girl does. No matter what definition you give to this word, I think the intention behind it is really important. For this venus girl, she's clearly really into Japanese culture and loves everything about it. In the case of my dear neighbours, they're pretty much mocking others and have ill intentions (mmh not sure that's the right word for it, sorry, english isn't my native language...). Anyway, my point is that people need to calm down and stop screaming racism everytime and everywhere. It can be a stereotype, but in this case I don't think it's such a serious issue. I would've never thought of "racism" if I hadn't seen all the hate-filled comments.:/
Towfuh I agree with you 100%. People are confusing racism (which is hate and prejudice against a race, and/or believing your own race is superior to others), and realising or noticing that a person is of a different race than yourself, which doesn't mean that you think anything demeaning of them. If I met you I would probably notice that you have Asian ancestry because of a few physical traits that are more or less shared by most Asians, and if you met me you would probably notice that I have Native American ancestry because of a few physical traits that are more or less shared by most Native Americans, and there is nothing wrong nor racist about it. On the other hand, if we made demeaning comments to each other referring to our races, then that would be racism (especially if we did so with bad intentions - I add this because I know a few people who are friends, and are of different races, and they have fun teasing each other about their race, and joking about stereotypes, but they don't actually believe those things, they really love each other).
Sarah G It's also amazing how people are saying that if you don't know what racism is then your uneducated when they don't even know what it is themselves. By their terms I would be racist too apparently. I love Japanese culture and have been since I was about 11 or 12 (I will be 24 this year). I always say that I was born in the wrong culture (white/canadian). I love Kimono's and using Japanese pen names. I am even considering a Japanese wedding Kimono for my wedding next year. I really want to learn the language, move and work in Japan. Their culture and other Asian cultures are so beautiful. :)
This video is also for Japanese to look half Western! But everyone is mean in comments and only talks about trying to look Japanese. I used this to try and look half western and was helpful. (Sorry for bad english)
+EvilArtist ㅤ So its not okay to respond to a video with an opinion of the commenters , as clearly as you have just expressed yours about my comment? , I'm a grown woman who pays bills , gives to the nspcc , works and has an interest in make up techniques and found that the comments were rather extreme and harsh and thus I have expressed my opinion on those who view against the video content. And starting a war really isn't my style. :)
+EvilArtist ㅤ idiot I wasn't referring to the UA-camr I was talking about the ridiculous comments in regards to racial discrimination because of this make up tutorial... you started an argument with yourself I think ,
Weird , but pretty common in japan.Having been in a women-only japanese university for a year now , I noticed that , yeah ,sometimes japanese make up trends can be weird , I think about that , or the perfect red circle of blush applied more than generously under the cheeks , japanese girls like their blusher haha xD
Most people doing tutorials like this (i.e of a certain group) don't generally focus on the looks of normal individuals. They go for the look of the popular people. I know how you feel, I'm mixed (black, white, and native american) and most people with my mix or similar mix are portrayed as having glowing brown skin and crazy hair. I look nothing like that (I look like a white person who is losing their tan, with regular curly hair)
If you're not Japanese, you can't look Japanese. no matter what you try. don't try to be like one of us while you are pretty of your own. its great you like our country, but you are really really obsessed with it. cut it down a bit would you~? Japanese people actually like foreigners who don't wear tons of make up, and just look foreign. instead of that they try to look Asian. Japanese guys love foreign girls. so just stick to the no make up, lenses and wigs, and just go all natural ;)
***** Thanks for commenting back. Japanese people are fond of foreigners, so instead of trying to look Japanese, I'd rather have her just look natural without any wigs or lenses and ridiculous make up. Its great she loves our country, but i really can't stand the annoying voice to sound cute, and those tons of make up. if you wanna wear make up so badly, go for natural make up or something. XD and dont use lenses and wigs. what if a Japanese dude falls in love with her while wearing the wig and lenses and make up. untill she takes them all of, he'll be gone before she's finished taking of all the junk of her face XD ahh well who am i to tell her what to do, as long she doesn't claim herself to be Japanese or something, even if she acquires a japanese passport, she'll ALWAYS be european, no matter what. :P ahh well, i'll be goin now, i'm gonna visit my friend in Osaka~~ Nagisa Out~~ bubbai xxx
Ofcourse its good to love Japan, and ofcourse you can use wigs (so do i :P) but its just that she says "how to look half Japanese" that kinda bothers me since she isn't even a single part of asian race. so for western people it'll get hard to look "asian" but ofcourse you can wear cosplay, or wigs or whatever :P, just do what you feel like to do ^^
What being discriminated here, is fact that she's sterilizing the fact that all mixed Asian look like this, when this is no where even being close to Asian, just weird.
think of this: if someone made a video titled “how to look half black” and then proceeded to wear blackface, they would be called racist, right? Same thing, different ethnicity
Hi. For those people commenting from Einshines video, first of all, 1. She didn't invent this trend , this trend is popular in Asian woman as seen in the same video. (trend is already existing. she didnt create it) 2. She just wanted to re-create a makeup tutorial inspired by that trend. 3. Because some asian woman think its desireble to look like a half-asian , and some foreigners thinks its desireble (pretty) to look half-japanese. 4. Also comparing black people to Japanese people is not a legitament comparison because black people is a ethic group not a race. 5. Its the same as "how to look egyptian " "korean makeup" (korean apply makeup differently then western(US) makeup) "arabic inspired makeups" They all exist. 6. I can see how einshines is offended by this, because hes probably half japanese or full japenese? duno. But It clearly wasnt ment to offend anyone just like all the other makeup tutorials i said in the point #5. And yeah...people shouldn't hate, and should just appreciate. The goal in this makeup is to practically admire japanese or half japanese beauty/ makeup. /end of rant/
+Jennifer Kim In that sense yes. However there would be less hate because they they look similar. As of a white person trying to look Asian they would get more hate because of the differences.
wouldn't there be more hate actually? Bcuz of korea/Japan history? Not saying that they will definitely hate it but its the same thing generalizing one country's culture when they're not even from that country
I love buying clothes from Japan (especially ones woth text) but what i'm quite not happy about is that the grammar on the shirt isn't right.. I have a top that i bought from the Osu shopping district that says "forget Exertion Greatness Upside Down" . < . But anyway, i love their fashion tho
I'm not sure if it's really 'half' per se. It was a good try, though, Venus. But the whole point of 'half' is that, especially the current generation, western influences have begun to take root in Japan and girls, especially, are straying further and further away from what is regarded as 'traditional gender roles' and what society had expected of them. Tanning and hairdying used to be taboo in traditional Japanese beauty (which is why geishas - the ultimate symbol of Japanese beauty - always had that distinctive white face and black hair combination). Now, we have all these western-inspired fashion styles that are popular such as Ganguro, Lolita, Punk and so forth. Also, a lot of Japanese girls think many western features are cute and desired; the large, deepset eyes, long lashes, defined nosebridge and cheekbones and so they strive for that look through makeup.
I have a great friend in my class and she's from Japan. I must say that her voice does sound a little like this. Of course she doesn't force it like Venus does sometimes. But I found it really funny how emotional she gets just like in animes o.o She's also always so cheery and happy and polite. As someone who is quiet and easily depressed this was a shock to me X3 This has nothing to do with the video but I just felt like sharing something lighthearted instead of focussing on racism.
I don’t think people know her mom forced her to do these types of video, this and the how to look like Korean girl too 💀 you really can’t hate her for that since it was not her choice.
+Beaubeau11 (Beau) I am not a half or even a bit Japanese, but I often get the question if I am Japanese or a half (from people who never have seen a Japanese person in really life). Why people are watching this video's you asked? Well, I am watching this beaucus I want to go ever in my life to Japan (after highschool I want to study Japanese). Not beaucus I watch a lot of anime, but beaucus I am truly interested in the language and culture. If I go to another country I want to become "one of them" as much as I can. Why ather people are watching this? I don't know. Maybe for fun or for cosplay, something like that. There a lot of people in my country who are trying to look like a Amerikan or someone from an other culture. (Sorry for my bad English, I am Dutch)
I am really confused by all the offended people. This is about a trend about JAPANESE girls trying to look HALF-WHITE and people are acting like this is the other way around. Did you guys actually watch the video or did you just read the title of the video?
yeah but in the video she says that this is a tutorial for "foreigners" to look half. also nothing she says changes the fact that this is blatant yellowface.
Idk why people are talking shit about her. She is doing this video because some people like looking like half-japanese girls. I dont see anyone complaining in videos like "Japanese look" or "How to look kawaii" or "Western look" or another shit like that. I mean, If you like something, do it.
Yeah ! She Just DO What she Like and All Of you Shits nothing Can do about it' just to bash her. How stupid -____- Yo All Waste time but admit all of you who bashing her Vid! You watch it' and you think of it and ofcourse you have an idea how it looks like in the end she try her best to be good why can't all you Moron appreciate it.. Just For Little -___- YouMoron! You still Finish That Vid she made and you're Nothing but disgusting shit Jealous because she have what you don't.

As Japanese, I don't understand why she's trying look like a half japanease. And her nose is too tall(which is so nice)

How to look half Japanese:
Step 1: Be born half Japanese!
I CRACKED UP AT THAT MOMENT XDD
Yo thanks so much!
Stop, so what? She's Korean! ITS STILL ASIAN SO WHO CARES!!!!!?
+KittyPieLeah XD she is not korean she is white
No, she isn't she said in one of her videos she is Korean
That awkward moment when you ARE actually half Japanese but you don't look like this.
Half Japanese people like me (or hafu's what ever you like to call) are ALL very different.
Miyashita Exactly! There is no fool proof way to look half Japanese because its an ethnicity you are born with! Plus half Japanese does not always mean half Japanese half white so this trend is just aggravating!
Miyashita I'm half black half Japanese (well quarter Korean) and honestly hate this shit
Legit i think you're confused with the title of the video and the actual content of the vid. Her accent is pretty heavy but i think she was talking about a Japanese trend that happened and she copied it and showed you how to do it. The trend was taking a little bit of western style makeup and making it their own. Pretty sure no one looks like this anymore tho
Ohhhh a friend thank you for saying that !!!!!
Saame . I'm half japanese and she doesn't look remotely asian
The title of this video is misleading. In the video she's explaining a trend that Japanese girls do where as the title states she's trying to look half Japanese.
Okay, I respect your love for Japanese culture bcuz I too love Japanese culture as well but I'm going to say this and I'm in no way trying to be offensive. I mean I understand that there's a Japanese fashion style influenced by Western cultures such as crop tops you can find in H&M and Forever 21. But if you want to show respect to Japanese culture, don't distort or modify your looks in order to honor the Japanese culture. If you love anything or anyone, show respect as well. I love Japan and Korea and I respect both cultures. Love and respect are two different things. They may have some similarities but they're not the same. It's possible to simultaneously love and disrespec anything. I'm Vietnamese and I love my culture as much as I love Japanese and Korean culture. I was born Vietnamese and there's nothing I can do to change it. I will never want to become Japanese or Korean because I'm born Vietnamese, I can't change my ethnicity and because I love what I am. People need to accept their own cultures, race, and ethnicity. Hating one's own race/ethnicity is wrong. It's internalized racism. It doesn't matter what ethnicity/race you are, you're still beautiful inside and out.
and just like what Joey aka The Anime Man said, "If you want to look half-Japanese, be born half-Japanese."
Lily Phạm very well said mate she is disrespectful to the Japanese culture
I get your point. I'm just thinking, being born into a culture is not your choice. If you don't feel like you belong in your own culture, there's nothing wrong with that in my opinion. I feel like there are just so many people who try to say "stay in your own culture, country, ethnic group, etc!" and that if someone doesn't like their own culture, they're "racist". I just feel like a culture should be open to anyone who loves it and wants to "join". Just because you're of another culture or race doesn't mean you can't belong in another one, too. Just imagine if an immigrant came to America and wasn't allowed to integrate into society, the culture, etc and call themselves American because they're of another race.... Doesn't that sound racist? So why is it not in this case, with Japan and non-Japanese people?
I'm just interested in your thoughts on this. I looked through the comments and you looked the least hostile and most reasonable lol XD
Oh, and I almost forgot, there are fashion trends in Japan that focuses on making them look more western, and also more like someone from Victorian England (lolita), and no one calls that racist. I'm so confused lol.
ChocoTheTiger I understand. I respect your opinion. I just believe it's not right to try to become a race/ethnicity that you're not. I *know* that being born [insert race/ethnicity] isn't a choice. (I thought that I clearly implied it in my previous comment). I meant show respect as well if you want to show love because they're two different things not the same. Most of the time I'm not tolerant of anyone who tries to be a race/ethnicity they're not but if they're polite and generous then I will definitely tolerate them.
I saw so many harsh comments telling those who're actually half-Japanese who got offended after seeing this video to stfu and that they don't have the right to get offended and it drives me crazy. It's freedom of speech and expression. You can't tell people that they're not allowed to get offended because it's unfair.
And thanks for being polite and civil with your response. I expected hate comments like "STFU SHE CAN DO ANYTHING SHE WANTS AND YOU CAN'T GET OFFENDED!" from Angelics or even comments from weeaboos later on but looks like I'm wrong. Whoo.
ChocoTheTiger I'll be happy to share my opinions. 😊
The Japanese fashion trend, Lolita is fascinating. I fucking love it. There's one Japanese fashion trend that I'm not interested in, it's ganguro. It's bcuz you get tanned and I hate getting tanned. The trend died out a long time ago and there's hardly any women and girls who use it. And there's a Western influenced fashion trend going on in Japan and South Korea. So many Japanese and Korean girls wear outfits you can find in H&M. And of course the T-shirts or crop tops say words in English (mostly swear words) that they may or may not know what it says.
Loving a culture without disrespecting it, I find it simple. Just be polite, calm and use manners. I just think it's necessary because you will give off a good impression otherwise people won't take you seriously and might look down on you and it's very depressing.
And yeah I agree some people may unintentionally disrespect a culture bcuz of ignorance. Lots of weeaboos and koreaboos are like that. Some weeaboos get angry if they meet a Japanese person who doesn't do stuff/aren't what they expect all Japanese to do or be. (Their expectations for the Japanese are unreasonably high). I love anime and Japan but most weeaboos bug me. They're analogous to Christian fundamentalists. The bad apples of the Christian community.
I'm half Asian (Vietnamese) and half American. My parents were born in Vietnam. I friggin love all the cute fashion and those gachas (and anime of course) but I would never change my nationality. I just admire some small things
Ok, now make a video of how to look half black
😂
nice.
+RyeCustard I just laughed so hard just then
ahh haaa lololololol
IM WEAK LMFAOOOOOI
Okay so Half-Japanese isn't a 'look' it's a genetic combination. So are you implying that you can make anyone look (perfectly)half-Japanese from their base genetic heritage, or just Japanese-White?
Also the reason I used 'perfectly' is because genetically it's nearly impossible to show half-half of the traits from both family's from genetic recombination(I.e reproduction)
Kakashi Hatake Aww thats sweet :) So I'm assuming by your user name you're Japanese? Is that correct? If so what is your overall opinion on this persons videos?
+xX “WRPBullet” Xx I'm part Japanese and this broad is an idiot. she thinks you can look Japanese because of eye make up. I can't stand her and she over does this.
Paige Schingen This is almost as bad as "Blackface" granted she's doing it out of adoration, but it's not a very... positive way to do it.
Nicole Secomb I think she(or he I don't know) has a vaid arguement. She's offended that this person is trying to imitate her genetic makeup and culture through trivial and shallow means.
Nicole Secomb Personaly I hope she takes this comment to heart. I know it sounds mean, but it's clearly offending a lot of people. I mean she's trying to "grace" a culture through imitating it's people. That may sound like a good thing, but she clearly doesnt have any idea what that means.

@misa misa exactly
This is NOT racists at all. Japan has always influenced by western fashion and make-up because of the "look."
Love the look and easy to do. Love you Venus
Fetishization is racist though
Do you even know the definition of racism
Yes, I do. I've also studied Japanese Culture for 3 years now.
***** "I've also studied Japanese Culture for 3 years now." Only white weeaboos say that shit.
Becky M Racism: a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving "the idea the one's own race is more superior and has the right to rule others."
From what I can see, she is not saying her race is superior, nor does it seem she believes she should rule. She isn't making fun of the japanese race, she is more praising and has a great interest in their culture. That is not racism.
Having an interest in different cultures, I believe, can open doors to acceptance. People see others taking a large interest in another culture and label it as being racist, which I find laughable. I t is nowhere close to being racist. Racism is discriminating, and putting down a race. She is not making fun, making jokes, criticizing, making racial slurs, nor is she saying the race is trash. She is showing interest, likes learning about japan and the trends that go among the girls of japan. She enjoys the fashions and the food. She embraces their culture. Like I said. I think if everyone would embrace different cultures, there would be more acceptance in this world. This is not racist.
i'm half japanese and I've never seen any hapa celebrity or any other half asian i know with an eye colour that isn't a hazel/dark green or brown, and yes, dark brown is common among half asians.

#halfersunite

and I personally look 100% european.
I mean people doesn't notice that until I say my name.
and personally I don't find this make up so much half jp.
I'm not saying that she isn't cute,but only she doesn't look like the halfs who I'm habituated to see.
Sorry for the bad english---
Gimme the high five half(?)
(I know that you commented 1 month ago,but honestly I have nothing to do and ur comment attracted me)
I am to half American half Japanese lol we do not look like that
i will say, i am half japanese myself from japan and am extremely jealous this girl looks more asian than me but then again i am also half black. but i don't even have a smooth face or asian eyes. so this video help me in a way.
i often use makeup as a way to connect with my culture and part for me to connect is by looking like i belong. it is my culture but it shameful i do not look like it and i feel disconnected. i don't fit into asian-centric or afro-centric beautiy standards. so tutorials like this help me to reconnect with my culture.
Thank you! I'm using it for the same way
the fact i unironically watched this and tried to look Asian, (not knowing what i was doing) when i was 12 haunts me
well im glad you grew outta that and realised it was wrong thats good for you!!
For those of you who came here to criticize this video please look at the description box! She was introducing a makeup trend in Japan, she was not saying that this makeup will literally make you half Japanese. This was not supposed to be aimed at people who want to be Japanese. She said "can foreigners look half?" as in, lets try this trend out. Also doesn't anybody remember the trend where some Japanese girls wear blonde wigs and contact lens to emulate the "western" or doll look? Did we ever laugh at them? Got offended and say "how dare they mock us!"Or did you just say "oh it's a trend"? Also guys its the opposite way around. Not for non-Japanese people to look half Japanese but for Japanese people to look half because it's a trend. And for those who want to thumbs down this comment go ahead. Like I care. I'm free to speak my mind.
I came here because of Shine's video. Mainly because when I saw his video I immediately know it was this video
Same!!!
Paradox Master I'm not hating on her videos though, but I don't exactly see anything special about them either
***** Yeah, but I think that Einshine and TheAnimeMan had a good point that this is generalizing half-Japanese girls.
I definitely agree with what those two were saying, especially with her Korean tutorial
Me too

This isn't racist, stop trying to make problems out of nothing.
Obviously this isn't what every half-Japanese girl looks like, she assumed people would be able to realize that. No one is stupid enough to believe that. She's just saying that this is how some half-Japanese girls do their makeup. I don't see anyone getting triggered at her makeup videos that are things like "How to look like a boy" and "How to look like a Victoria's Secret model" because for those, people have the common sense to know that she doesn't mean that every person in those groups look like that.
In addition, as for these kinds of tutorials where it's "How to look like a Korean girl" and "How to look half Japanese", she bases them off of tutorials she finds in magazines published in these countries.
And this is proof most of the critics aren't watching the videos! For this one, it starts off assuming that the people using the makeup tutorial are already Japanese. It teaches them how to do their makeup to look half white. Notice how no white people are getting triggered at that? Then stop getting triggered for Japanese people who don't care!
Just stop trying to find reasons to hate people, geez.
And yes, I am Asian
TL;DR
If people don't have the intentions to offend you, don't get offended.
ThatWeirdThingInTheCorner this is not a video on how half Japanese girls do their makeup. It’s a video on how to LOOK Japanese. What if she made a video on being half black? Doing black face and everything. It’s just as bad Japanese people aren’t some cartoon you can fetishize
ThatWeirdThingInTheCorner And look at the majority of the comments they are Japanese people who DO CARE. She had no respect for the culture. Since you aren’t Japanese YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND. You will never understand the hardship of being Japanese. She won’t either. She wants to look Japanese so bad but will NEVER BE. She loves fetishizing us so much making us seem like some imaginary mermaid or some shit. WE ARE PEOPLE FOR FUCKS SAKE. Those Victoria’s Secret model and boy tutorials you are talking about ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Boys and Victoria’s Secret Models don’t experience racism and fetishism. Or their culture being stripped for them or used for the wrong reasons. DONT EVER COMPARE THE TWO.
Are you japanese?
If not, I am.
This HIGHLY offends me.
@@hikaeggyolk2759
Well remove the stick from your arse and man up then. Whiteys don't give a shit that she's trying to look half white, so I don't see why Asians should be so triggered about her also looking half Asian. It just seems like such a silly thing to be offended by.

its not racist she did arabic makeup and i didn't go to the comments and say this is racist , how will a video be racist you may ask ? if the video WAS ATTACKING THE CULTURE . she said with makeup how to look like half Asian she didn't say how to be Asian . so it's fine , personally no one can lie that Asian people might say < i want to look half american > or american people would say < i want to look half European > the media is all about not accepting who the are or where the are from so i get the whole racist think is coming from . but if the video didn't say bad thing's about the culture and actually likes or adores the culture it's not racist < btw i'm not attacking any culture because i love almost every culture so no hate i'm just saying this for the people who say this is raciest >
tutorial starts at 7:34
thanks!
A bit insensitive when sue the hafu look is a fad in some instances but generally hafu experience marginalization and she is trying to market the look of someone's fetishized ethnicity... kind of weird. I'm a bit of a mutt with family from Trinidad and England and I get asked questions by people of every race because I look sort of like them but something is 'off' and it can make me feel lie I don't really fit into any one category >_> You can make yourself look one way but its not always fun for those who look like that all the time.
Plus can she make up her mind whether she wants to be more japanese or parading around the fact Eurocentrism makes Japanese girls want to look more western? (as well as the rest of the world feeling the need to look white european, like her)
Little Wolf Taima Yeah, I'm half Chinese half Italian, and I get a bunch of Japanese girls asking me how I do my makeup at school. They get angry when I tell them that I look like this all the time, especially when I say I don't like the way I look. This fad can't die down soon enough, but I still like some of VenusAngelic's videos.
Well if your profile picture is of you, I'd say you look beautiful... But on the other note, I agree with you it's weird that it's a fad in some cases, but, you'll find videos of any "how to look...etc" for those who are remotely interested, but I do agree with you. :)
*blushblush* Im so glad you think so :0 x
im half japanese and half canadian (caucasian) and I totally understand what you mean. not fitting in and stuff. but I personally love not fitting in & being different. I lived in japan for part of my life & the half look has definitely been popular/admired for a really long time & got me a lot of attention there (modelling jobs etc). in canada I get some pretty crude asian jokes though & more negative attention at school. I would rather have people admiring how I look than making fun of it (I guess im a little selfish) so the hafu trend really doesnt bother me too much
She might be the biggest weeb I've ever seen.

+Doge Sama check your facts he is actually half Japanese
Please stop judging her from just this video. At least know some background from her before you go off with your comments.
She was abused by her mother. Her mom made her to make vids to make money off of her. This problem was just recently resolved.
This video was two years ago. This doesn't represent her current self.
English is not her first language. So of course it will sound off.
This was actually a trend. Most people are just pointing their fingers at her and not the trend like 😒
Well............ it's still racist you know? I'm aware of all the horrible things that happened in her past but it's still no excuse
+Dadadadad adadadad well how about the japanese girls who did this to look half white? please, calling this trend racist is stupid.
it is. that fact won't change just because they aren't trying to look asian but white. racism isn't only about spezific races but EVERY one of them.
dude right? thanks. people are just so stupid sometimes. that it's a trend that came from japan seems to go above a lot of their heads. i have no idea why einshine and his butt-buddy (forgot his name😂) doesn't see that either living in japan and having an idea how people there see hafus.
+늘하 she should just change the title then
if you really think about it, this isn’t as bad as it seems, Japanese people are doing the exact same thing just in opposite directions but nobody says anything here in Japan, (yes i am half Japanese and am 100% East Asian) it is completely normal for anyone to change their appearances to look as white as possible and they would only be praised for it yet if it was the opposite, a white/non asian trying to look half asian everyone gets bashed, i am not saying it is okay, it will always be wrong and sad to try and look a race your not. I am saying that if over here in Japan, people try look very white its normal, why isn’t it in foreign countries. Or if it isn’t in foreign countries, why is it in Japan?
本当に考えてみれば、これは見た目ほど悪くはありません。日本人はまったく同じことを反対方向にやっていますが、ここ日本では誰も何も言いません（はい、私は半分日本人で、100％東アジア人です）誰もができるだけ白く見えるように外見を変えるのは完全に正常であり、それが反対である場合にのみ賞賛されるでしょう、白人/非アジア人が半分アジア人に見えようとすると恥ずかしいと思います大丈夫です、あなたのレースを見てみることは常に間違っていて悲しいでしょう。私は、ここ日本で人々が通常のように非常に白く見えるようにしようとすると、なぜ海外ではそうではないのかと言っています。それとも海外にないのなら、なぜ日本にあるのでしょうか？
YES! Asia literally copied white people for hundreds of years and they are poor things, but when a white person wants to look Asian they are an Asian fisher! Awful
Diffrance in culture, both are kinda bad, im america especially minorities are opressed, this isnt realistic, its stereotyping and also not okay to pretend to be a dif race
This is actually a very good argument and comment

When you are Asian and still watch this oH wElL
First of all, have any of you Asians or half Asians asked yourself, "why does she try to be all cute and Asian?" Maybe it's because she finds your culture amazing and interesting and really wants to be a part of it. Just because she wears what happens to be "trendy" in Japan doesn't make her racist. Are you gunna call someone who had a sex-change "sexist" because they switched genders? She loves your culture, so why not embrace someone who respects you guys? When she made the comment about the "dark brown eyes" not being able to work, that's because of the contact lenses colors.
Maybe understand what respect is first. Putting on a ridiculous accent, for one, is not respect in the slightest. Go study up on Japanese culture, what the Japanese have been through in dominantly white countries, like America and their internment camps for Japanese citizens, where hundreds died of poor conditions and exposure. Yet now white people are turning around and saying they "respect" the Japanese by portraying these ridiculous characters that are only a very, very small portion of the Japanese culture, and a very new one at that. It's okay to love the clothing, to showcase and create Japanese trends and styles, but to literally try and look "half Japanese" is horrendous. It's also pointing out that she believes being "half Japanese" is better or "cuter" than a full Japanese person, hence the brown eyes comment. This is blatantly racist, but I cannot expect you to understand that. A lot of half asians and asians in western cultures are discriminated against and stereotyped almost for their whole lives, yet some white girl comes along and she's looked at like a style icon for doing it. We need to educate ourselves as white people. It is our duty, our payment for the horrendous things our ancestors did to almost every other marginalized group in the world. So don't you dare assume to know what racism is, or tell someone to "accept it as a compliment" when you will NEVER face racism in your life.
You can't just say all "white" people, because yes, America is and always will be a very racist country. Thankfully, I'm not American and was not born in America. The girl who created this video is not American either. She is Hungarian/Swiss. I don't know why she does the accent, but I do know, that she is not making fun of being half-Asian. She specifically says that in Japan, looking half-Asian is a new trend. So maybe you should look at the social media in japan and depict THEM as being racist for making it a new social standard to be a half-Asian. And btw, I do understand what it's like to be discriminated for the reason that I am not an American, I am an immigrant living in America. I've been stereotyped many times in my life but you can't just jump to conclusions that everything someone does or says is racist.
Rosanna Holod Yes, all white people. Period. You will never face racism because you are white. Period. You are so ridiculously ignorant. You may have been stereotyped, but you will not be discriminated against based on your eurocentric features, and you will never know how trivial that is. This is racism at its finest.
I'm sorry, but YOU are ignorant, and extremely naive. I'm extremely against racism and the fact that you are are so blind to realize that Asians are equally as racist as many others just shows how sad you are.
Oh and btw, EVERYTHING you have just said is RACIST because you discriminated against the whole entire white race. So thank you for proving my point 😜

I wanna go to Japan when I am over because I love the traditions and lifestyle so I wanna follow the latest trends but I think actually making yourself look Japanese is not the way to go
it is
Japanese get surgery to look Caucasian all the time not acting as though this isn't a two way street
her mother abused her and forced her to look like a doll by asian-fishing
Why are you guys all not using uur brains and just saying whatever? She is not being rasist, Asian people instead of being offended should feel proud when they see this type of videos, this girl admires asian culture and find their people so beautiful that sh e probably wishes she was asian as well. And since she isn't, She's trying to at least look like one. I say this because that is just my case. I think Asian people areee so beautiful and im always trying to find a way to get the little eye bags haha and stuff and how is that rasist? Like Oh yeah I hate asians so much i wanna look like them? I mean geez use uur heads people.
Linda Redmond You need to educate yourself on colonization
fetishizing a race is not cute. Learn to type 'your' as well, christ.

To all haters on this comment section. I know ur self esteem is really low to understand that she just chose the wrong words for her video title smh she just wanted to introduce us the popular make up trends from japan and YeS she did a good job.. so take a minute to think about your jealousy and ... stop writing such horrible things. It should be an honor to you asian people that someone love and respect your culture.
😐
😊
no its not an honor you weirdo
THATS RACIST
Frank Lars
We were all engaged in a fruitful discussion whereas you were just making yourself look like an idiot by using racist and sexist language. Maybe YOU need to go somewhere else where they accept your childish bitching. Next time go do your research on why these things happen before you comment. Because NOBODY is interested in your racist views.
I guess most people get it wrong!
"Half japanese" is a japanese make up trend to look less japanese. It doesn't mean people from america or europe people should look japanese! But japanese people use this kind of make up to look less japanese!
And she just shows how to use this make up to get a kinda hipster look but she says with no word it would make you look japanese!
So just pay attention what the video is about instead of just hate! -.-
Couldn't agree more! And as a makeup junkie who love to explore any kind of makeup style, i find this tutorial is very helpful.
Sorry fir the dislike! I just HAD to make the likes and dislikes even! 😄

"How to look black"
Is it racist now?
She is white she is saying makeup will make you look like your Japanese but she don't act like one and she has no knowledge watching this video makes me loose brain cells
I wouldn't be mad about a "how to look black" video either, but ok.
I'm half asian, I was bullied a little in school (in the US), but I still think this concept is cool, and frankly I'm flattered that someone wants to look like my race :)
this is offensive, she is using my culture / looks as an "accessory". also psa: if u aren't half Japanese/Japanese u don't get a say in what does and doesn't offend us.

The video made me cringe 😂
I'm 2 years late but this chick isnt even Asian. Shes full on white. It's like doing a video of being half black. Dont be so dense you idiot.
I'm half Japanese and half Vietnamese, and she cannot just do whatever. This is making me very uncomfortable to the fact that she thinks all mixed Japanese look like this. I also do not support anything having to do with makeup changing ethnic group or race. It is dumb and racist. I am very annoyed and mad because this is how westerners see us.

People saying "I don't get how this is racist" is because you are uneducated. Of course you don't see how it is racist, you don't have to deal with racism every day of your life. Please stop defending people's problematic ways because it's a person you like, it happens, no one is perfect and she's not trying to be offensive, but, you need to acknowledge, IT IS. Stop silencing and erasing what people of color especially Asian people of color, are saying just because you're defending against something you're not very educated on. You need to LISTEN and UNDERSTAND, especially if you are white and BLIND to these problems because of your privilege of being white.
Perfect comment.
I'm sorry if I seemed upset, it wasn't my intention. I agree with your approach and didn't mean to take any "shortcuts". I just think that people exagerate a lot. From my experience, I don't consider this video offensive at all. This video which has zero impact on people, even Asians, and actual discriminating issues people deal with because of their "race" (not used to using this word, the concept of "race" for humans doesn't exist in France) are just not the same thing in my opinion. Same for your conclusion, she's not really "promoting" any stereotypical view. It's purely physical. It's a fact that most Asians, not only Japanese people, have slightly slanted eyes, it's natural and true to a certain degree to say it. Using this feature to harm in any way a person can be blamed though.
I've watched dozens of makeup tutorial called "how to look like ...". For me it doesn't come across as "racism". For example, there are so many "how to look like a kpop star" or "how to look korean" tutorials, but nobody screams "racism", probably because the girls doing it are mostly Asians. It doesn't shock me to see a caucasian girl trying to do the same (her only purpose is to look "pretty"). Asian girls, who do makeup tutorials on how to look like a random hollywood star, also use tricks to make their eyes look bigger, like "white people", and nobody complains.
As you said, what the black and north africans around my neighbourhood do is discriminatory. But I think it's clearly different from what this venus girl does. No matter what definition you give to this word, I think the intention behind it is really important. For this venus girl, she's clearly really into Japanese culture and loves everything about it. In the case of my dear neighbours, they're pretty much mocking others and have ill intentions (mmh not sure that's the right word for it, sorry, english isn't my native language...). Anyway, my point is that people need to calm down and stop screaming racism everytime and everywhere. It can be a stereotype, but in this case I don't think it's such a serious issue. I would've never thought of "racism" if I hadn't seen all the hate-filled comments.:/
Towfuh I agree with you 100%. People are confusing racism (which is hate and prejudice against a race, and/or believing your own race is superior to others), and realising or noticing that a person is of a different race than yourself, which doesn't mean that you think anything demeaning of them. If I met you I would probably notice that you have Asian ancestry because of a few physical traits that are more or less shared by most Asians, and if you met me you would probably notice that I have Native American ancestry because of a few physical traits that are more or less shared by most Native Americans, and there is nothing wrong nor racist about it. On the other hand, if we made demeaning comments to each other referring to our races, then that would be racism (especially if we did so with bad intentions - I add this because I know a few people who are friends, and are of different races, and they have fun teasing each other about their race, and joking about stereotypes, but they don't actually believe those things, they really love each other).
Even the definition of racism did not really defend what you were saying lol
Sarah G It's also amazing how people are saying that if you don't know what racism is then your uneducated when they don't even know what it is themselves. By their terms I would be racist too apparently. I love Japanese culture and have been since I was about 11 or 12 (I will be 24 this year). I always say that I was born in the wrong culture (white/canadian). I love Kimono's and using Japanese pen names. I am even considering a Japanese wedding Kimono for my wedding next year. I really want to learn the language, move and work in Japan. Their culture and other Asian cultures are so beautiful. :)
This video is also for Japanese to look half Western! But everyone is mean in comments and only talks about trying to look Japanese. I used this to try and look half western and was helpful. (Sorry for bad english)
i think there are more important issues going on in the world other than this girl doing what she likes doing.

Skeptical me Nah, Lets not
+EvilArtist ㅤ So its not okay to respond to a video with an opinion of the commenters , as clearly as you have just expressed yours about my comment? , I'm a grown woman who pays bills , gives to the nspcc , works and has an interest in make up techniques and found that the comments were rather extreme and harsh and thus I have expressed my opinion on those who view against the video content. And starting a war really isn't my style. :)
+EvilArtist ㅤ idiot I wasn't referring to the UA-camr I was talking about the ridiculous comments in regards to racial discrimination because of this make up tutorial... you started an argument with yourself I think ,
It's a little wierd that her eyebrows are orange and the hair is brown..
Weird , but pretty common in japan.Having been in a women-only japanese university for a year now , I noticed that , yeah ,sometimes japanese make up trends can be weird , I think about that , or the perfect red circle of blush applied more than generously under the cheeks , japanese girls like their blusher haha xD

How to be half Japanese
1. Stop, just fucking stop...
Is it just me or does it seem like she is an asian wannabe 😂
She is lol
I am too :3
She not a wannabe she just noramal she just love asian stuff and other related dont call anyone a wannabe because thats just rude
what r talking about?
*u
I mean, I'm half Japanese and I don't really look like that.
Most people doing tutorials like this (i.e of a certain group) don't generally focus on the looks of normal individuals. They go for the look of the popular people. I know how you feel, I'm mixed (black, white, and native american) and most people with my mix or similar mix are portrayed as having glowing brown skin and crazy hair. I look nothing like that (I look like a white person who is losing their tan, with regular curly hair)
I'm half Japanese too and the only way you can tell is my hair and my eyes
Nefertiti same
If you're not Japanese, you can't look Japanese. no matter what you try.
don't try to be like one of us while you are pretty of your own.
its great you like our country, but you are really really obsessed with it.
cut it down a bit would you~? Japanese people actually like foreigners who don't wear tons of make up, and just look foreign. instead of that they try to look Asian.
Japanese guys love foreign girls. so just stick to the no make up, lenses and wigs, and just go all natural ;)
***** Thanks for commenting back.
Japanese people are fond of foreigners, so instead of trying to look Japanese, I'd rather have her just look natural without any wigs or lenses and ridiculous make up.
Its great she loves our country, but i really can't stand the annoying voice to sound cute, and those tons of make up. if you wanna wear make up so badly, go for natural make up or something. XD and dont use lenses and wigs.
what if a Japanese dude falls in love with her while wearing the wig and lenses and make up. untill she takes them all of, he'll be gone before she's finished taking of all the junk of her face XD
ahh well who am i to tell her what to do, as long she doesn't claim herself to be Japanese or something, even if she acquires a japanese passport, she'll ALWAYS be european, no matter what. :P
ahh well, i'll be goin now, i'm gonna visit my friend in Osaka~~
Nagisa Out~~ bubbai xxx
So I really love Japan. But, I don't try to look Japanese. But I do like wearing wigs because I just like it. Does that work?? Idk I need your help.
Ofcourse its good to love Japan, and ofcourse you can use wigs (so do i :P) but its just that she says "how to look half Japanese" that kinda bothers me since she isn't even a single part of asian race. so for western people it'll get hard to look "asian"
but ofcourse you can wear cosplay, or wigs or whatever :P, just do what you feel like to do ^^
SuzakuNoMiku thank you for replying that made me feel better
Good to hear ^^
I think wigs would look great on you ^^
well, i don't understand how can people say that it's racist
Silvia Gómez she is saying all half Japanese ppl look like this but she herself is not Japanese
What being discriminated here, is fact that she's sterilizing the fact that all mixed Asian look like this, when this is no where even being close to Asian, just weird.
think of this:
if someone made a video titled “how to look half black” and then proceeded to wear blackface, they would be called racist, right? Same thing, different ethnicity
Hi. For those people commenting from Einshines video, first of all,
1. She didn't invent this trend , this trend is popular in Asian woman as seen in the same video. (trend is already existing. she didnt create it)
2. She just wanted to re-create a makeup tutorial inspired by that trend.
3. Because some asian woman think its desireble to look like a half-asian , and some foreigners thinks its desireble (pretty) to look half-japanese.
4. Also comparing black people to Japanese people is not a legitament comparison because black people is a ethic group not a race.
5. Its the same as "how to look egyptian " "korean makeup" (korean apply makeup differently then western(US) makeup) "arabic inspired makeups" They all exist.
6. I can see how einshines is offended by this, because hes probably half japanese or full japenese? duno. But It clearly wasnt ment to offend anyone just like all the other makeup tutorials i said in the point #5.
And yeah...people shouldn't hate, and should just appreciate. The goal in this makeup is to practically admire japanese or half japanese beauty/ makeup. /end of rant/
I bet if a Korean person did this there would be less hate.
yeah
if a korean did this wouldn't there be the same? Korean people arn't japanese or half japanese so...
+Jennifer Kim In that sense yes. However there would be less hate because they they look similar. As of a white person trying to look Asian they would get more hate because of the differences.
wouldn't there be more hate actually? Bcuz of korea/Japan history?
Not saying that they will definitely hate it but its the same thing generalizing one country's culture when they're not even from that country
I love buying clothes from Japan (especially ones woth text) but what i'm quite not happy about is that the grammar on the shirt isn't right..
I have a top that i bought from the Osu shopping district that says "forget Exertion Greatness Upside Down" . < .
But anyway, i love their fashion tho
Instructions unclear
I'm now in a basement in Japan tied up
There's a faster and easier way on how to look half Japanese

Be born a half Japanese
Yah she should've done that to save us the torture
I'm not sure if it's really 'half' per se. It was a good try, though, Venus.
But the whole point of 'half' is that, especially the current generation, western influences have begun to take root in Japan and girls, especially, are straying further and further away from what is regarded as 'traditional gender roles' and what society had expected of them.
Tanning and hairdying used to be taboo in traditional Japanese beauty (which is why geishas - the ultimate symbol of Japanese beauty - always had that distinctive white face and black hair combination).
Now, we have all these western-inspired fashion styles that are popular such as Ganguro, Lolita, Punk and so forth.
Also, a lot of Japanese girls think many western features are cute and desired; the large, deepset eyes, long lashes, defined nosebridge and cheekbones and so they strive for that look through makeup.
I have a great friend in my class and she's from Japan. I must say that her voice does sound a little like this. Of course she doesn't force it like Venus does sometimes. But I found it really funny how emotional she gets just like in animes o.o She's also always so cheery and happy and polite. As someone who is quiet and easily depressed this was a shock to me X3 This has nothing to do with the video but I just felt like sharing something lighthearted instead of focussing on racism.
I don’t think people know her mom forced her to do these types of video, this and the how to look like Korean girl too 💀 you really can’t hate her for that since it was not her choice.
@@doremirse9950 this was almost a decade ago honestly its not that bad as long as she doesn;t repeat it
This was/or is a trend in Japan as it's even in japanese magazines, so I'm not sure why people are hating on her so much.
Exactly. Theyre obviously jealous bitches
Love yourself for who you are.Don't try to be someone you're not. :/
i'm half japanese and i think this is just.....its just plane stupid
sunshine im a halfie as well!
awesome!!! halfie club!
same here
+Beaubeau11 (Beau) I am not a half or even a bit Japanese, but I often get the question if I am Japanese or a half (from people who never have seen a Japanese person in really life).
Why people are watching this video's you asked? Well, I am watching this beaucus I want to go ever in my life to Japan (after highschool I want to study Japanese). Not beaucus I watch a lot of anime, but beaucus I am truly interested in the language and culture.
If I go to another country I want to become "one of them" as much as I can.
Why ather people are watching this? I don't know. Maybe for fun or for cosplay, something like that. There a lot of people in my country who are trying to look like a Amerikan or someone from an other culture.
(Sorry for my bad English, I am Dutch)
.......
Mad respect for having the courage to not take down this Yellow Face tutorial after receiving so much criticism.
I was honestly shocked this wasn't a reupload. 💀
I am really confused by all the offended people. This is about a trend about JAPANESE girls trying to look HALF-WHITE and people are acting like this is the other way around. Did you guys actually watch the video or did you just read the title of the video?
yeah but in the video she says that this is a tutorial for "foreigners" to look half. also nothing she says changes the fact that this is blatant yellowface.
I just knew Shine was talking about Venus, lmao. Yeah, the feeling is mutual bro.
Idk why people are talking shit about her. She is doing this video because some people like looking like half-japanese girls. I dont see anyone complaining in videos like "Japanese look" or "How to look kawaii" or "Western look" or another shit like that.
I mean, If you like something, do it.
no bro this is not about how to "Video" this is racist video showing that you can be anyone by doing make up
You guys she isn't making fun of Asians she's actually complementing them by saying she wants to look like one and she thinks they look nice
I'm proud to be Norwegian
Haha sant👍
(Proud to be finnish)
