- Welcome to my latest video, "Beyond Tokyo's Bright Lights: The Dark Reality of Japan's Slums". In this eye-opening piece, we delve deep into the often-overlooked world of slums in Japan, where poverty, and desperation thrive in the shadows of the country's bustling metropolises.
Many tourists flock to Tokyo, Osaka, and other major Japanese cities, attracted by the bright lights and modern conveniences. However, few venture beyond the tourist areas to see the stark contrast between the affluent and the struggling in these cities. This video shines a light on the poverty and inequality that exists in Japan, exploring the harsh living conditions and challenges faced by those living in the slums.
We take you on a journey through some of the most poverty-stricken areas of Japan, sharing a look at these places people call home. From cramped and dilapidated housing to rampant crime and violence, we give an unvarnished view of life in the slums of Japan.
If you're interested in understanding the reality of life in Japan beyond the bright lights and glamour, then this video is a must-watch. Join us as we shine a light on this important issue and raise awareness of the challenges faced by those living in poverty in one of the world's wealthiest nations.

Tokyo's slums are cleaner, safer, and more survivable than most American downtowns. What an amazing country!
Tokyo is not country
Nonsense, there are many stupid people who abuse people. Who would admit that dirty is clean?
You have to also take into account that Japan is a country where the population is in steep decline. There is a significant housing surplus and this means there are large numbers of houses (particularly in country areas) that are sitting empty and are effectively worthless. If you are a Japanese citizen you can go into some areas and apply for a house that has been abandoned by the owners to be transferred to your ownership for a nominal fee. You are required to fix it and live in it of course.
That's the kind of content I was hoping for. Thanks & cheers!
I’m Japanese, thanks for introducing about not major street in city. In old days,Japanese used to make house and apartments with wood, this type of apartment has very little room and weak infrastructure.
In this video, we can see two big problems in city in Japan. One is empty houseJapanese population is getting decreased in these days and has huge amount of elderly people. There is many empty house. Most of the resident living in these places are elderly.
Other problem is decline of power in Main Street in the town. Not only, in Osaka, it’s a problem around over many towns.Many shops are closed because there are a lot of shops in rode side which people can get by there easily. It’s called "shuttle town(シャッター街)".
I am very happy to hear that Japanese city is almost clean, but also want to say thank you to report other side in Japan!
Adam. Love your japan travel series. I remember asking you about a year ago when you were going and you said hopefully soon. These have been great videos. Cant wait to see south korea next.
Thanks for showing every side of the countries you visit. + You are respectful in the way you present certain areas.
I myself am not living in the best area I only moved here to be close to the hospital dialysis machines and ongoing treatment after my transplant.
Best luck with your dialysis!!
@@GoneAdrift Thank you. The Dialysis treatments stopped after my transplant from my Brother. But I have to still be close to the hospital for weekly bloodwork. etc...
Japan slums are cleaner and better organized than middle class neighborhoods in my country.
Happy Songkran 🥳 🎉
You got pole position today?
@@zariisofficial Think it was 2nd. Gotta be lightning fast on here!
@@Ian4444four 😂😂😂
Happy Songkran 🥳🎉🍻
@Sonny Cheers Sonny 🍻
Great look at the depths! Every great city have some gray or even darker areas and it can be quite painful to see some of them. Appreciate that you took us for a trip through the though streets.
Songkran is really kicking off in Pattaya now. Hope you create some content around it if you are in Thailand atm.
Fascinating episode man! Enjoyed every second of it! 😎
I read that in Japan are many abandoned Homes because of the decrease population.
Real estate prices also decline because of that.
WOW. Wonder if I walked nearby and did not turn the corner into this. Outstanding walking tour.
Music selection for this one was spot on
REALLY GOOD VIDEO. 👍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Interesting.
Happy songkran 💦
Amazing vid, thanks dude
I like those renovated houses
God bless Tobita Shinchi. Best nights of my life.
Tobita Shinchi. Only one reason why a "tourist" would venture there...
🤭
Even the "slums" look fairly decent in my opnion they've done a great job as far as upkeep of there country
But it is super clean though
Feels like a ghost town area and does not look like a Slum area still pretty neat for me compare to slum places here in my country, No people to see? Yeah i can live there
From South Korea, Every country has slum areas, and the slum alleys in Japan are similar to Korea.
It's not a slum. That's called a homeless shelter.
TBH I think I could live there, bit of paint etc. its a lot better than some places I've seen. stay safe mate
Nice to see the dark side! Cheers
So many stories. What sort of people live there. What are their stories
Did you get a new camera or lens ? This video is banging.
古い街ではあるが、ここはスラムではない。
TACOS I AGREE WITH YOU 1,000 PERCENT.
👍🏼🍻🇦🇺 from Exmouth W.A
For some reason your channel is the only UA-cam channel that won’t play
My mmother taught there for a total of five years on three different trips between 1990 and 2000. She said crime was never a concern of hers.
Yeah 100% we have walked into abandoned hotels and you can clearly see people had been using them.... spot on with this video the illusion is real in Japan hidden away but you would not notice it if someone did not tell you.... average wage here is less then 30k AUD so you get why there’s issues here. Hell our power bill is 40,000 yen a month so yeah. That brings it into perspective
They’re so clean 😮. All of this is BS. Thank you for showing.
This man doesn't know that many of these shanty houses in these areas are abandoned . Besides Japan is a small country with large population. thus houses are small. Its a bad thing to judge everything by Australian standard , a big country with small population.
What’s the name of this area?
Do sone research on akiya bank houses keis. People are buying good homes from local authorities because people have left their towns. A mate just bought a 10 room farm house near Fiji he’s going to turn into a mountain biking trail running/hiking hostel. Cost him about $40000 aud and it will be about 1/2 more to do it up to hostel standards,
When I fly to Thailand in November I'll have an almost 3 hour layover in Toyko NRT airport. Any suggestions of something I could check out close to the airport or is that a bad idea?
Difficult because it’s NRT airport is so faraway from the main city.
SLUMS? BUT AIR CONDITIONED SPLIT TYPE AIRCONS 😅
Make video by countries comparing to each other living quality of top economy by gdp and population dense and pollution
Mamasans everywhere seem to have English language skills. Must be Rosetta Stone.
It looks ok tbh, even cool, in a way, but I'm not Japanese. Awesome video btw.
So no one to eat or drink with like in Bangkok slums 😮😂
Yeahhhhh boooi let go 🔑z you probably can’t read this cause your phones been sprayed with water pistols
I got BLASTED bro... Great vid out tomorrow on it
habibi come to mumbai
🙂
still no rubbish tho in general
Looks so empty.
寿司
This area wouldn’t be slum If it was in America.😂
this would be a normal middle class neighborhood or even a bit upscale one in India
