Dating in Japan is just like dating anywhere else. Be confident, be kind and most importantly BE TALL, MUSCULAR AND EXTREMELY ATHLETIC😂
Anthony in Akita underrated comment lol
be David Beckham
Don’t forget to be white everyone 😂😂
Anthony in Akita And a beard. Well shaven, not too long XD
Dont forget a thick wallet. That's usually like 98% of the popularity.
Watching these videos about Japanese people holding foreign people in such high regard... I wonder how crushed their expectations would get if they met an average foreigner who's not tall, attractive or interesting by Western standards.
Send me over and I'll let you know what they think of me
Foreigner apparently means a giant muscle-bound white/black dude
RIP rest of the world
Im tall athetic etc but i never had a girlfriend nothing like since birth never kissed nothing i would fit your description but not the small part oh im 20 so yeah no matter where i go no girl will like me lol
@@iiTzLurks Maybe Japan is the place for you and you find a girlfriend there 😎

I've been to Japan twice and love it. Decent manners, being very respectful. knowing a few Japanese phrases and wearing a smile will get you far. You'll be amazed at how many conversations you'll randomly strike up with people.
I loved how clean the streets were when I went. I saw about only a few pieces of litter, and when it's there, you really notice it lol. Sticks out like a sore thumb.
I was too nervous to speak much though. My ability to speak betrays how much I actually know. Next time, I'll try harder. All I said were thank you's and greetings.
Speaking in English is hard enough XD
Those conversations usually only arise when you're going out for a drink though. You could actually be Beckham and noone on the street would start a conversation with you, unless its some middle school girls from the countryside who want a picture with a foreigner. Happened to me quite regularly.
Also, knowing a bit of Japanese helps. The fact that you're willing to learn will help you considerably. Just from my observation so far.

Oooh, the "lady first"-thing. I remember that when I was in Osaka and went to a restaurant near the ocean museum. A girl came out and wanted me to enter before she left, but I let her out first.... I stopped counting at bow #4. It's how thankful she was. I thought 'it's common to let you out first my dear'. It was lovely to see.
First people go out, then people go in, it´s a basic rule :)
Can I suggest something? I may be the minority but I also find these types of videos useful for me studying Japanese. I think having Japanese subtitles would help me out a lot. I see there is English but having Japanese subtitles would be really useful I think.
If they were in Romaji that would be useful. I have English subtitles on, so I might have trouble with two sets of subtitles.
@@rampart64 Don't. Ever. Use. Romaji! Learn Hiragana and Katakana and use it! It doesn't even take two days to remember the characters.
@@rampart64 Romaji is not a good way to learn Japanese. Hiragana and Katakana are super easy, start with them instead!
They have Japanese captions!
Like Anthony said, this video has Japanese and english captions. I find this channel amazing to learn because of this. You can watch with no subs, then Japanese subs, then English Subs, and finally pause at each line of dialogue copying and pasting words you dont know into Jisho .org! This kind of learning takes time but gives you genuine insight into how Japanese people speak the language.
8:00 Thanks for including us shorties Cathy I appreciate it.
When I went to Japan, we always got special treatment because my dad is 6'7" lol
How tall r u
im 6'9 and i felt really fucking awkward when i was there
M L I’m 6’3 how do you think I would be received lol
@@abdips488 you'll fare much better than i did lmao wish i could donate some of my height it really sucks most of the time

The roller coaster i felt in the first interview:
"I like beards"
Me: :D
"But tidy beards, nothing fluffy."
Me: D:
Well your beard looks messy so maybe trim it up
@@GLaurence1997 This pic is post shower beard so yea it's a little poofy but I have it at that length with regular trims.
SonofYmir I like ur beard man! If ur bothered by it, maybe just a bit of a trim and u should be good!
Yun808 oh i do trim it, just to get rid of deadends and splitends
Wakaru.. i have a little bit long beard too like 10-15 cm. I want to study 1 semester in japan but i don't want attract attantion with my beard :D And i don't want cry if the japanese girls
tells her girlfriends: eww look at him eww his beard is so tall eww like a homeless people eww :(
Sometimes I feel like the average japanese woman just wants a guy to hold a door for her, for once.
Well, average *me* wants to hold the door for a Japanese girl, for as many times as they want 🥲
subtitle correction: at 4:02 the girl actually says she struggles with dyeing her hair, not shaving ^^;
Ahah I didn't even notice that one 😂
While the guy was zoning out real hard 😂
Those two girls at the end I can't♥ They look like absolute anime characters so far xD
I'm not a guy but I like to hear other people's opinions. Japan is very interesting to me. I like to learn more about their culture, class, and more.
Don't forget to learn about Nanjing Massacre
Weaboos: Time to get my waifu.
Hell yeah is time
Assuming every foreigner got blue eyes and blonde hair smh...
that's touka's wallpaper right?.... on ur profile pic
@@thatboigone yep
Change the title to Scandinavians.
Hahaha, boy they need to get out off their island a little more often
That sounds like westerners think that Asian are all Chinese
Are we all just ignoring the fact that cathy is wearing a wool coat and scarf in the middle of summer?🤣😂🤣
Yes :3
I don't think this is a recent recording so it's not summer yet in the video
@@pomelo9262
If it's at this time of year it is just the start of spring by a couple if weeks.
The reverse it true, I can't understand the words but I love Japanese music. Traditional to J-Pop. Great video Ms Kat.
ok now i got interested in Director's san beard hahahhaha please show it to the viewers :D
Is there a reason he never shows himself?
@@josephskiles not any particular reason that i am aware of. maybe director san is shy
Random question, did you get a new camera. The video quality looks even better.
I love this content ❤️
I turn 45 next month. I made the decision to go back to school and get my second bachelor's degree in Japanese (my completed one is in Mech Engineering). I want to leverage that to move to Japan to teach.
I'm single, I don't have children, and I finally decided to follow my dream. Maybe I will meet you one day CathyCat!
Dōmo arigatōgozaimashita!!
happy birthday
next month
@@leecrawford6560 Arigatou gozaimasu!
next month
Nice, I am half your age but I am studying to do the same. It's hard work but it's totally worth it.
You really should just take intensive Japanese classes, I don't think a bachelor's in Japanese is going to make that much of a difference, and it's not going to be better at learning japanesez in fact it might be worse. The best thing to learn Japanese would be to take intensive Japanese classes in Japan so you are immersed in the language, you can learn any language like that in a much shorter time, to a level that would take years if you stay at home studying.
@@phosphenevision the thing is, I want to do it this way. I want more then just an ability to communicate; I want to learn.
it was very intreresting.thx
Was interesting to hear the girl talking about people in Japan always looking at each other (particularly in the face) and being bothered by what others think and such. I've been a couple of times and just assumed this was because I was a foreigner standing out rather than a general thing.
Moonie Cathy Cat love watching these clips of you interviewing the locals such interesting and lovely people and so pleasant, I am so looking forward to my first time the sights, sounds and the Culture experience in japan this is so going to be different to the UK!
Thank you for the video I will reach Tokyo on 27th 😁
I figured wanting to nerd out over Japanese history and visit historically significant places would make me seem like a weirdo to them. I'm glad that woman is into it 😅
I'm glad I'm not the only one
I don't think many people will think you're weird. The people that do, just don't mind them
Wow! I've learned I don't speak Japanese! Thank you! Further videos may emphasize this point! Thank you!!
These last two girls were really into imparting the knowledge!
4:11 guy is the dictionary picture of 'lost in the sauce'
My biggest compliment was know enough japanese to get by. People get really surprised when I know somethings and they love that. Besides the fact that I am tall, slim, and have a good physique 😅
as a german for myself. i am proud to knew that Dschingis Khan is stil very popular in Karaoke so... guys .. lear the lyrics.
Was? Die Japaner mögen diesen alten Schinken? XD
7shinta7 ja. In einen VHS Kurs japanisch hat die Dozentin private Bilder aus Japan gezeigt. Alltag und so. Und bei der karaoke lief genau das Lied.
@@christian9365
😂
Ok, dann weiß ich ja, was ich singen muss, wenn ich mal in Japan zum Karaoke bin.
Muss halt nur noch vorher kurz Japanisch lernen... 😅
As a brazilian I laughed hard when they said it would be cool to hear us singing our songs
We have some of the best songs ever made, specially romantic ones! Just ignore what became popular after the 90s.
They are talking about europeans and americans as always
quick question, is it acceptable to listen music with speakers/headphones (but the headphones are so loud you can hear it) on the streets in Japan. Or is it something that Japanese people don't do because your troubling the people.
9:50 all sports that are connected to height
Strongman: heavy breathing
Perfect.
8:39 LMAO “Uta-pri~!!”
I grew up watching a lot of Japanese monster movies and anime that was on TV back then. I've also read a number of books that focused on Japanese traditions. Honoring parents is not new to me, I help mine out a lot. When I got married I moved in w/my wife and helped take care of her dad. I've been called "Old Fashioned" and "Out of Date". Given all the failed marriages & relationships today, maybe that's not a bad thing.
The gal on the right starting at 8:00 might be the most animated and outgoing person i've ever seen in any of these Ask Japanese videos. It made me smile.
8:33
Pretty much me when I Listen to Japanese music 😂

omg your interview style is sooo cute...! And your Japanese is cho wakariYasui jyan..!! ^_^
9:04 that is the cutest thing I've seen all day haha
Good day to you ma'am, how about non-japanese asian people? What are the standards that make us popular in japan? I would like to know.
Thanks for loving our beards and muscles!! 😍 🧔💪
9:46 but Japanese boys are like amazingly amazing at basketball lmao
Most of those are probably just fantasies just as us men have a certain way we want a woman to look. But once two people get to know each other and like the other, they don't care about how you look. It's cliche but it's true. All of us have their fantasies but in reality we just want someone who loves us and who we can love. Being hot is just like a dessert. It's nice but not necessary.
Does anyone actually try help them with a chair? I've tried it and it only feel awkward. Opening the door is too natural for me and complementing then is also easy. Never really seen a successful time when someone helped the girl with the chair unless it was movies

Lol i was like TWO HANDS and then i remembered her hands are probably way smaller than mine
This レディーファースト gives me funny vibes sounding more like "lady fast"
Before watching the video: My guess is be attractive, muscular, and learn Japanese language and culture.
After video: Yeah, be tall, dark, and handsome.
The bit about loving Japan and Japanese culture gives me hope though.
I'm also from nearby Hollywood, so maybe some brownie points there for me... 🤣
Dankeschön
I left a big fat like
I got a bunch of these down, like the beard, muscles, being interested in Japanese culture. How come I wasn't popular when I was over there :P
Well, I did get a single 「かっこいい！」from some random girl while walking in Kyoto wearing my leather jacket, but that's the only instance of me feeling popular.
Pentti Koivuniemi are you white?
@@arielgonzalez9993 Yeah.
Pentti Koivuniemi so you’ll be fine lol
I love this channel, but I feel like there's already been enough of this kind of content covered
na never
Most people who watch J-Vlog videos are weebs who want to learn whether or not J-Girls will fuck them, so it's no wonder J-Vloggers make videos catering to those questions.
Just look at the views, the vids with the most are to do with whether or not J-Girls or J-Guys will bang foreigners and food. Other aspects aren't cared as much about.
@@mrlahey2530 wtf
@@thatoneradicalizedprussian225 Don't shoot the messenger. Most of the videos with the highest view counts relate to how Japanese women view gaijin men because it's mostly sexpat English teachers and weebs who care about Japan.
@@mrlahey2530 I don't care for issues happening on Earth. I was sent here to keep the comment section safe from insurgents. Please don't disturb the peace.
To be fair...a man is supposed to enter an unknown restaurant or bar first...to check if it might be dangerous for her. But he should then hold the door open for her. If he knows the place already he can let her enter first...
You said that you went to a German school. How many languages do you speak ?
Please please please please please Let people react to "Tokyo Bon 2020" it'd be awesome!!!
Besto bidio dess 😂😂
damn... i had this things... so only 1 more year for learn Japanise and go there ~! :D
I've never been so glad I understand Japanese.
I wish I would understand it lmao but unfortunately I'm german and don't understand a word.
@@colahunter8180 You should try and learn!
@@verifiedweeb I do want to learn it sooo so much. But visiting a language course I hope that's correct (my english isn't that good) is really expensive. And I probably won't be able to teach it my myself since there are these 3 different types of writing and that's just soo much to learn :/.
@@colahunter8180 There is a site called Duolingo that I absolutely recommend. You most likely have tried it, but if not please check it out! Also it is free!
@@verifiedweeb yes I tried it out actually but there is like sooo much stuff ugh. I feel so stupid :D but I guess if you really want something you can achieve it sooo I just need to keep trying.
What's the "divine inch"? (3:20 mins) I've never heard of that.
It's the skin showing between a woman's skirt and her long socks.
Thank God! I had the worst thoughts about what it meant. Thanks, sorryamerica!
It also applies to the skin that is shown between hotpants and overknee stockings.
Okay so this whole video I was concerned someone was going to be hit by a car😖
Lmao @ the idea of foreign dudes being gentlemanly and holding doors and stuff.
You are so cute! 😍
What is happening in Japan? Hold the door for these woman... It obviously goes way farther than in the USA where it's expected.
0:07 coming from that guy that isn't surprising.
5:55 , where are these kinds of girls when I come to visit damn it! help me find this gem internet!
Don't give me hope !
I can skateboard? Is that a sport? Lol
Was this filmed recently? Isn't Japan like blazing hot now? Cathy would be broiling under that outfit!
According to the Weather Channel, the Tokyo forecast for the days to come features temps between 22° C (71,6 F) and 28° (84° F), kinda stormy next week.
Hmm... What I get is that probably one of these ladies is playing:
Uta no Prince-sama: Shining Live hehe~
I like muscles too lol~
I don’t get it. So if Japanese men, in general, don’t pull out a chair, hold a door, or give compliments, how the heck do they get a date or even a girlfriend in the first place?!
Soooo, i need to grow in height and start doin' sports.... and learn to sing.
as a guy with a tidy, well kept beard, i fit the first girls type
So, what I do not have: thick muscles, beard (any kind of), normal height, any skills at sports.
what I do have: manners.
5% chance to get a Japanese girl... Okay, got it, I'm not going to Japan. *cries*
I have 0 percent at any girl im 20 and never had a girlfriend never kissed nothing lol im tall and athletic but no beard and big muscles lol
Two fist biceps? That's some advanced muscle.
Or did she mean when she holds her fist horizontally?
They have tiny hands
As a german I would date women only at places with automatic doors (men opening doors seems to be a thing there), thats up to 33% romantic bonus on a date...
8:03 Lexus LFA japans finests :)
can you ask both women and men about what makes the opposite gender popular in japan? not foreigners but japanese people
i also think beauty standards in japan is quite interesting
comentario
All not true: its simple ! show an appreciation & love of sake , say things like "... mmm, Im getting melon, coconut , and hay its so smooth and goes so well with Oden etc., ", study it, know why rice polishing ratio is important, the names of differing quality levels, and learn the koji mould secrets to good nihonshu making , and learn food pairings = success to the max. every time. You might thank me later ...oh and learn a fake smile , j girls are great at this.
Cathy cat: *this style of beard?*
Me: wait, you have to be hit-
Oh ok that kind of beard silly me

Too much expectations from either foreigners and Japanese dudes 😂 everyone ends up single, ey but I got my gains and I’m 180cm so who knows 😅
Is it weird or socially unacceptable in Japan to wear a tank top as a foreigner ? if I wear one will people feel uncomfortable ?
Nah probably not cause you're a foreigner
It’s gonna be hilarious when a ton of western kids with a slight 6-pack try to show off their N5 Japanese and karaoke skills while flexing their arms and talking about their days on the high school basketball team, thinking the oo’s and aw’s from the girls means they’re really popular...when in reality the girls are actually thinking “this guy is so fucking full of himself...just keep laughing and praising him, it’ll be over soon” lmao
Lol
Fake news.
Cathy have you EVER asked Japanese men why they are so rude to women? No women first or politeness towards them?
That blonde guy with pierces looks badass. I hope someone will tell this to him.
Omg.
I constantly glanced over to my boyfriend while watching and now I'm not sure if I'm gonna lose him to some cute Japanese girl when we visit the country 🤔
Damn, I would be popular there xD
The moment she said beard, 90% had already failed 😂
When she said it would be cool seeing other singing and hearing in there language im like idk about that if it was me no cause i suck at singing
Real struggle bars tho, I don't like singing in English unless it's like something trap/rap like but in Japanese it's kinda fun
When I went to Japan together with a group of international tourist (12 people from Europe and US) we went to a Karaoke bar along with our guide (beautiful and nice Japanese girl).
When it was my turn I picked 'A little piece of heaven' from Avenged Sevenfold.
I really had a blast, but maybe that was not the best choice, since the lyrics were on display for everyone to see. ^^"
