When I was in Japan, I was walking along one of the many lakes around Mt. Fuji when an old fisherman waved me over. He didn't speak much English, and I didn't speak much Japanese, but he invited me into his fishing shack and we talked about our jobs and what we like about our homes. He gave me a huge bag of jerky fish and said, "if you come back, I will be here". I think about him every week 😭

probably wanted to murder you and eat your skin as jerky. I wouldnt go to weirdos shack in the middle of nowhere. Trust me, not even in japan. In the west you get robbed, in japan you get skinned by the one weirdo. Have you seen the murderers in japan? Im not sure there is worse fate than what they did to their victims.

I don’t know why, but it warms my heart a little to know he probably is, in fact, still there, fishing in one of the lakes next to Mt. Fuji.

When I first visited Japan we were still learning the subway station and of course we were in Shinjuku. This lady named AIko spent an hour and a half of her day helping us set up Passmo (buss pass) and explaining the subway system to us. She didn't speak much english but was still a huge blessing when we had no idea what we were doing.

I completely understand that "feeling" you're referring to at the end. In 2015 I went on a high school exchange to Japan for a year and lets just say my arrival in Japan was very stressful. Because of all that stress I went through I began regretting my decision to study abroad and was feeling really bad. After my host family at the time picked me up from the airport and I was in the car on the way to their home, I had a change of heart. What made me change my outlook was simply seeing life going on around me. I saw a person riding their bike, other cars on the road with us, all the homes in my host family's neighborhood and all that made me think "you know what, this is nice" and I never regretted my decision again after that. I ended up loving my year in Japan so much that I plan to move back in a few years.

I had the same experience! I went on exchange to South Korea. The language barrier, the issues at the airport (I went at the beginning of 2020 - and I had my exchange terminated due to COVID), the initial stress. It had me deliberating upon whether I made the right decision. I had exactly the same anagnorisis, at exactly the same time. The drive home from the airport. Observing everyone around me. My host family gave me a Korean name (the romanised version is actually my username lmfao), and I started feeling like I could do it, as challenging as the journey was.

The language hurdles and small victories over time. The rules one is spot on though.

I am so happy for you both, on both your life and work change, and for your new additions.

I’ve been learning Japanese, and it’s so difficult. It’s insanely rewarding when you watch Japanese content and can understand what’s being said. I’ve always wanted to go to Japan, and I’ve recently had dreams about going.. and I remember always being so anxious in my dream because I couldn’t speak the language.
Having a child opens up a while new world to you. You shop at special places in the stores, you go to playgrounds, people look at you differently and talk to you like making a cute baby is the most important thing in the universe. But most importantly you notice the beautiful things around you to describe it to him, toys start having backstories, the most commont stuff in the house becomes interesting, it's CRAZY.

Maybe that whole aspect of people treating you better if you are having kids, people expecting everyone to procreate and add to the world's extreme overpopulation, is part of the reason why so many people are deeply depressed. Many can't afford to support a spouse much less a family and they suffer from that societal judgement. People get treated like they are selfish, like they are inferior and there is something wrong with them if they aren't married and having kids.

@chadchadwick1231 my country isn't overpopulated, there are more old people than young ever since the end of communism 25 years ago. Also people arent as depressed here, it's a poor country but we are happy. And most importantly the reason I can easily afford a baby is because I worked, mostly in a textile factory under horrible conditions since I broke off college, and I saved up all my hard earned money since age 20 because I wanted to have a baby and a house one day. And still I wont ever complain on the internet to strangers, maybe you should too.

I'm an Italian studying Japanese at University. My professor found the best analogy to describe this language's difficulty: it's like Maths. Japanese truly is a hard language in the same way Maths is a hard subject for many people. If you're able to understand and memorise it's many rules and ways of expressing things, you're golden, but it's very hard to get the gist of it if you're mind is more optimised for something else. This other analogy is my own: kanji are like working out. You end up enjoying suffering and enduring because you get addicted to that sense of gradual growth and development you get when you achieve a new goal or milestone. In the end, kanji suck, but they're so much fun.
@katullo1110 ай бұрын
I don’t know Japanese but I certainly know mathematics, and so I can confidently say this: maths is not about memorization. Maths is a link of logics chained up together. Memorization of formulas is not mandatory for mathematics. They are essentially shortcuts you could say. There are many ways to solve the same problem that otherwise you would probably use a formula for. You can derive many formulas and rules in mathematics if you understand the fundamental building blocks.

I’ve read someone say that they were able to stay the whole time before birth (not after) after doing a PCR COVID test on the spot. Maybe you could also ask the doctor for help with getting some sort of exception due to whatever reason: not fluent in Japanese, first pregnancy, high stress, whatever it is. Medically there is good reason for her to have you there to provide support and comfort in an extremely unfamiliar situation.

There are hospitals that will allow it. And I understand the feeling of not wanting to be the Gaijin and fuss about the "rules", but it is definitely worth the push. The regulation is going to change in a couple months anyway so why not push for it now.
This is exactly why their society functions so efficiently compared to ours and we catch a bad rep for this stuff lol. It's always worth the push cause we're all so special and deserve special treatment to any little thing specific to what is important to any individual. I agree who wouldn't want to be present for their childs birth. But that's the thing about other cultures. It's not yours. There will always be things you may not be able to understand or relate to that you just have to accept. A lot of the west struggles with that.

I came to japan recently and theres unfortunately a lot of misunderstanding between how open the people are here. Im staying with another host student whos from taiwan and he doesnt speak japanese or english. The day after we landed we were walking around nearby and went to a small sushi restaurant owned by an older couple (maybe 80). They were extremely welcome and regardless of what stereotypes say, they were very friendly to me and my roommate and they were very interested in talking to us. People here are usually very friendly and i have not had any issues with the people. Another example is my roommate wanted to use a tourist discount at a store nearby and the workers didnt know how to do it. We were holding up the line and i felt kinda bad so i told them that it would be ok if they couldnt do it since the line was stacked up. They declined my offer and decided to go through with it even though it took a lot of extra time and then THEY apologized for an inconvenience that we more or less caused. These things are all small ik, but they make a huge difference and regardless of what people say about japan its really a place you have to experience and connect with to understand. Whats seen vs reality is very different and i think its a very welcoming place.

Once you go down the road of criticizing Japan, it's hard to recover.

Such a wholesome video. We all have our stereotypic ideas of Japan, but most of us never get the chance to actually have those stereotypes exposed to reality. Thanks, Felix, for giving us these slices of Japanese life.
To be honest Japan it's pretty good, but if there one thing I don’t really like about it is that Japanese people are as we say in my country "solapados", meaning someone that hides their thoughts in a "malicious" and cautious way, that’s why they can be "friendly" to you while at the same time they hate you and talk bad behind your back, it’s really hard to make new friends because they are always trying to cover they real intentions, thoughts and feelings, so you never know if they are genuine. Also, you should confuse certain attitudes which are not really about being nice but about being condescending.

Its important to note that his experience of living in Japan is going to be different to 99% of the people (average person) who wants to live here. The most ideal set up is his set up where he earns in foreign currency like USD for example and spends that in Japan, without having to actually "work" in Japan. That is the best because you get amazing bang for buck in Japan ANND you avoid many of the negative aspects of Japan which is associated with the working/colleague/service aspect of Japan. Working in Japan is not ideal as the salaries tend to be fairly low and you will have to work surprisingly hard for such low pay. Just keep that in mind!

As a Japanese, I am grateful to you for introducing the good and bad points of Japan to so many people in an objective and polite manner! I think Japan is a good country in terms of being a very safe place to live as well as the culture is a very good part. However, as shown in the video, the fact that people are forced to follow unreasonable rules that are not happy for anyone, even if the reasons do not make sense, is something that even from a Japanese point of view seems strange, and I feel that it is a problem that needs to be changed. (For example, if someone in a higher position than you is working overtime, you cannot go home on time because your priority is to help your boss with his/her work, even if your own work is finished, etc.) Finally, thank you for liking Japan.

On the last point. Personally, after living about 10 years in Japan, this still holds up. It's very rewarding to live here, as long as you can keep up with the rules. It's a peaceful place, although you will never fit in 100% and you will have to answer the same questions a million times. It's part of the "gaman" you have to endure, like everyone else, though the reward is unparalleled IMO.

I totally get the dream thing, I visited Japan last December and we were in Kyoto walking around the Yasmin-jinja Shrine. We’d looked around all of it and we went out the back exit towards the hills/forest that were filled with orange and red trees with the leaves falling, and there was a pond with a Crane standing on one leg on a rock in the middle of it. It’s probably not such a crazy thing but seeing all of that together on one of our first days in Japan didn’t really feel real.

When I was in Japan, I was walking along one of the many lakes around Mt. Fuji when an old fisherman waved me over. He didn't speak much English, and I didn't speak much Japanese, but he invited me into his fishing shack and we talked about our jobs and what we like about our homes. He gave me a huge bag of jerky fish and said, "if you come back, I will be here". I think about him every week 😭
probably wanted to murder you and eat your skin as jerky. I wouldnt go to weirdos shack in the middle of nowhere. Trust me, not even in japan. In the west you get robbed, in japan you get skinned by the one weirdo. Have you seen the murderers in japan? Im not sure there is worse fate than what they did to their victims.
I don’t know why, but it warms my heart a little to know he probably is, in fact, still there, fishing in one of the lakes next to Mt. Fuji.

She didn't speak much english but was still a huge blessing when we had no idea what we were doing.
I completely understand that "feeling" you're referring to at the end. In 2015 I went on a high school exchange to Japan for a year and lets just say my arrival in Japan was very stressful. Because of all that stress I went through I began regretting my decision to study abroad and was feeling really bad. After my host family at the time picked me up from the airport and I was in the car on the way to their home, I had a change of heart. What made me change my outlook was simply seeing life going on around me. I saw a person riding their bike, other cars on the road with us, all the homes in my host family's neighborhood and all that made me think "you know what, this is nice" and I never regretted my decision again after that. I ended up loving my year in Japan so much that I plan to move back in a few years.
Super cool, I'm Super proud of my Japanese heritage. I wish I was more honorable and respectful
This is what happiness feels like to me. I just hope it doesn’t fade with time
Don't go to Japan if you're black. Very racist country.
I had the same experience! I went on exchange to South Korea. The language barrier, the issues at the airport (I went at the beginning of 2020 - and I had my exchange terminated due to COVID), the initial stress. It had me deliberating upon whether I made the right decision. I had exactly the same anagnorisis, at exactly the same time. The drive home from the airport. Observing everyone around me. My host family gave me a Korean name (the romanised version is actually my username lmfao), and I started feeling like I could do it, as challenging as the journey was.

Having a child opens up a while new world to you. You shop at special places in the stores, you go to playgrounds, people look at you differently and talk to you like making a cute baby is the most important thing in the universe. But most importantly you notice the beautiful things around you to describe it to him, toys start having backstories, the most commont stuff in the house becomes interesting, it's CRAZY.
Maybe that whole aspect of people treating you better if you are having kids, people expecting everyone to procreate and add to the world's extreme overpopulation, is part of the reason why so many people are deeply depressed. Many can't afford to support a spouse much less a family and they suffer from that societal judgement. People get treated like they are selfish, like they are inferior and there is something wrong with them if they aren't married and having kids.
@chadchadwick1231 my country isn't overpopulated, there are more old people than young ever since the end of communism 25 years ago. Also people arent as depressed here, it's a poor country but we are happy. And most importantly the reason I can easily afford a baby is because I worked, mostly in a textile factory under horrible conditions since I broke off college, and I saved up all my hard earned money since age 20 because I wanted to have a baby and a house one day. And still I wont ever complain on the internet to strangers, maybe you should too.

Yes the work life in Japan is way more strenuous than most other countries, but I feel like the overall feeling of Japan is way better than some other countries.
As long as you're Japanese. They're a horribly racist country. They hate Koreans and black people and have many bars and restaurants and other buildings that foreigners aren't allowed to enter. They have an insane suicide rate and a very shaming culture. I think the average amount of sleep is like 6 hours across the board and they're even more "work till you're dead" than america is. I'm sure it's lovely to visit, but they're a very shitty country once you dig a little deeper than the surface

I'm an Italian studying Japanese at University. My professor found the best analogy to describe this language's difficulty: it's like Maths. Japanese truly is a hard language in the same way Maths is a hard subject for many people. If you're able to understand and memorise it's many rules and ways of expressing things, you're golden, but it's very hard to get the gist of it if you're mind is more optimised for something else. This other analogy is my own: kanji are like working out. You end up enjoying suffering and enduring because you get addicted to that sense of gradual growth and development you get when you achieve a new goal or milestone. In the end, kanji suck, but they're so much fun.
I don’t know Japanese but I certainly know mathematics, and so I can confidently say this: maths is not about memorization. Maths is a link of logics chained up together. Memorization of formulas is not mandatory for mathematics. They are essentially shortcuts you could say. There are many ways to solve the same problem that otherwise you would probably use a formula for. You can derive many formulas and rules in mathematics if you understand the fundamental building blocks.

I’m Japanese and have lived in Ireland. I don’t like working in Japan even though I’m Japanese. But I’m so glad you are able to settle in Japan and enjoy it!! Each prefecture has each culture and food in Japan so highly recommend go many places as much as you can!!

I'm sorry but I thought this is a deliberate deez nuts joke
I've lived in Japan for five months, and I also experienced that feeling when you suddenly appreciate something small in daily life.
I once traveled to Japan and always wondered why their trains always give announcements about giving up seats for pregnant people and the elders. Like isn’t that common knowledge? Until lately, my wife is pregnant and the men just instantly fall asleep whenever they see her 😂.
My favourite thing was the vending machine near my apartment that just sold giant drinks for 100¥ and also the convenience stores are basically all you need.
As a Japanese living in America, I really miss that feeling. Also, I miss cones

As a Japanese, foreigners like you who try to live happily with lots of respect and follow the customs and maybe the rules here even you dont like, are very appreciated, and nice to hear your thoughts this time. Your Japanese speaking sounds quite good and i guess you can speak Japanese well more than you feel.
Well said Same here in the United States where I live We always welcome those who try to speak our language and respect our culture
the Japanese don't exist
You guys need to work on those silly rules and loosen up.. after all the society there is collapsing slowly because of the strict ways of life.

Felixさんは何か惹かれる魅力があるよね 日本人として日本を好きでいてくれることをとても誇りに思います。
日本人でずっと日本にいるけど今でも夢のような瞬間は感じるよ 朝の澄んだ空気とか 四季によって変わる匂い 春は桜が咲きほこりピンクに染まる景色を見てあまりの美しさに見惚れるし 花が咲いて街の色が変わると冬の終わりを知らせ、始まりとワクワクを感じさせる お花見で賑わい活気がわく 夏は空がとても青々しく、緑も濃くて景色が鮮やかになる 花火大会やお祭りが盛んになって賑やかなのに夏の夜は虫の声と静けさと空気が切なさを感じさせる 秋になると朝の空気が澄んでいて冬が近付く空気が切なくさせる 自然が多くなにげなく目をやると紅葉で色付く景色が目に入る 秋の夕焼けをみると胸がキュッとなる 冬はクリスマスが近くなりイルミネーションでキラキラしてる街が幸せな雰囲気につつまれる お正月になると日本文化が盛んになりほっこりするような暖かさを感じる 温泉旅行でもしたくなる いつもふと何気ない日に空を見上げるとあまりの綺麗さに時々立ち止まる なんか儚いというか切ないというか懐かしい気持ちに突如襲われる時がある 空気や匂いがそうさせるのか
自分の日本に住んでた頃の思い出や季節によって変わる匂いや景色を思い出させてくれてありがとうございます。日本に戻りたくて仕方がない。
It's just so cool to me how he and Marzia wanted to go to Japan for so long and finally his dream came true and now he's reviewing it. We're glad to be part of your journey Pewds. Keep on living your life.
i mean marzia literally never worked an hour in her life lol pewds has enough money for both of them and more so it must be nice to ber her. she can go to japan and not work there
@@madapigi1 wheres your proof in that she has never worked an hour in her life? cause the internet thinks otherwise "Marzia Kjellberg is an Italian Internet personality and businesswoman. Known for her videos on her now-inactive KZhead channel Marzia, Kjellberg has also ventured into writing, fashion design, and business."

@@littlegreen4991 ehm she went to live with pewds when she was still in highschool so when do you think she had time to work? lol cmon im just stating facts. nothing wrong with it but i'ts clear she lives with his money
@@madapigi1 Unlike others, I understand what you mean. It's true, Marzia most likely hasn't done any kind of job most people typically do after reaching adulthood, like a waitress, cashier, janitor. Aka, physical jobs. But starting and running a business, as well as doing art is a form of job anyway. Everyone has their own expences and the fact that someone's job is "simpler" than anothers, doesn't mean they don't have any kind of job experience.
Felix, about the being in the delivery room thing: I know you said there isn’t really any bending the rules but I hope you do try! I’ve read someone say that they were able to stay the whole time before birth (not after) after doing a PCR COVID test on the spot. Maybe you could also ask the doctor for help with getting some sort of exception due to whatever reason: not fluent in Japanese, first pregnancy, high stress, whatever it is. Medically there is good reason for her to have you there to provide support and comfort in an extremely unfamiliar situation. I hope you’re able to be there at the very least longer than the 2 hours 🙏🏽
Yes!!! 100%. Im also watching a french youtuber you got his baby a few months ago in japan and he chose an hospital where he could stay 100% of the time. I think it could be very worth looking for an other hospital or asking for a solution.. 🤞
There are hospitals that will allow it. And I understand the feeling of not wanting to be the Gaijin and fuss about the "rules", but it is definitely worth the push. The regulation is going to change in a couple months anyway so why not push for it now.
日本だと例外が認められる事はほぼないです。先にルールを確認して自分と合う病院を探さないといけませんね。病院だけでなく全てにおいて、先にルールを確認したほうがいいです。煩わしいですがルールに合致すると非常に合理的で快適です。
who gives a fuck though
This is exactly why their society functions so efficiently compared to ours and we catch a bad rep for this stuff lol. It's always worth the push cause we're all so special and deserve special treatment to any little thing specific to what is important to any individual. I agree who wouldn't want to be present for their childs birth. But that's the thing about other cultures. It's not yours. There will always be things you may not be able to understand or relate to that you just have to accept. A lot of the west struggles with that.
I lived in Poland for 3 months and you really learn to enjoy the little things in a new place. Just sitting with coffee somewhere feels more meaningful. I started learning Polish nearly a year before I went and my Polish was passable enough for basic convo/at least understanding the general idea of what someone’s saying even if I couldn’t reply in Polish super well. It’s so fun to exercise your brain with more languages
The fact that we’ll be moving to Japan next year for the next 4 years is the greatest timing with this video. Im constantly researching life in Japan and how adapting will be, I’m so thankful Felix is sharing his experiences as it helps ease my anxieties of it all. ❤️
apologies if this is unasked for, but rachel from the channel rachel and jun talk a lot about general life in japan if you’re interested! on their second channel (rachel and jun’s adventures) especially, rachel has a whole video about women’s health in japan. either way, i hope your move goes smoothly and you have a wonderful time 🧡
I like how pewds these days looks like he found his balance in life. He looks so content and peaceful. Cheers mate happy for you pewds.
Lol he's a fucking racist, but ok
Fr bro does what he want and we love that for him
he is reach and in love what else
Blud found out he got no enemies
Man, what a hard thing to find! While being a multimillionaire with no preocupation where you take a private jet because of your dogs. Sooooooo hard to find balance
That feeling you couldn’t describe is called peace and serenity. So glad you are experiencing life with these emotions. I pray that Marzia and the baby have a safe delivery. ❤❤❤
There is a japanese word called Komorebi. Komorebi roughly translates as “the scattered light that filters through when sunlight shines through trees”.
Northwest Oregon is very much like that, as well. I get what he was saying. Oddly enough, some Japanese drink bottles arrive on our beach because its right across the ocean.
aka being in nature essentially
I think I can relate to that feeling you mentioned having in Japan. I’ve had something very similar to what you described in the Maldives. That shit was like a damn dream. Like unbelievably beautiful and my brain couldn’t comprehend.
I came to japan recently and theres unfortunately a lot of misunderstanding between how open the people are here. Im staying with another host student whos from taiwan and he doesnt speak japanese or english. The day after we landed we were walking around nearby and went to a small sushi restaurant owned by an older couple (maybe 80). They were extremely welcome and regardless of what stereotypes say, they were very friendly to me and my roommate and they were very interested in talking to us. People here are usually very friendly and i have not had any issues with the people. Another example is my roommate wanted to use a tourist discount at a store nearby and the workers didnt know how to do it. We were holding up the line and i felt kinda bad so i told them that it would be ok if they couldnt do it since the line was stacked up. They declined my offer and decided to go through with it even though it took a lot of extra time and then THEY apologized for an inconvenience that we more or less caused. These things are all small ik, but they make a huge difference and regardless of what people say about japan its really a place you have to experience and connect with to understand. Whats seen vs reality is very different and i think its a very welcoming place.
As an American living in Japan 15 years, it's just like what was said in the vid. Form your own opinions. Most of the negative opinions I hear are from other long-term expats living here who don't know Japanese and get disgruntled from loneliness, failed relationships etc. Be careful, it is extremely contagious amongst expats here! Once you go down the road of criticizing Japan, it's hard to recover. I have 2 half Japanese kids, so I don't like to criticize Japan very much, and I don't have much to criticize anyways, Japan is a better fit for me than the USA x100000.
Watching you pre-Japan and seeing how stuck you felt not being able to move, to now being IN Japan and living your best life - I"m super happy for you (and Marzia)! Its amazing what can happen in a year :)
it's pretty trippy seeing how relaxed and stoic he has become
日本で楽しそうに過ごされてて良かったです
That feeling you're talking about at the end!!! The word I learned for it was "copacetic". It's when things are "very satisfactory" or "in good order". I get that feeling all the time, it's such a pure feeling of happiness and peace. All is right in the world for those moments. Copacetic!

I just got back from a trip to Japan and I have got to say it is unlike any country I have ever been to. I had studied the language on and off for around 4 years but your point on conversation is absolutely true; there are tons of phrases and concepts that you just don't get until you go to the actual country. Loved hearing your views on their culture and can't wait to see you grow further with your experiences in Japan!

I went to Japan a few weeks ago now and i can say it's a truly beautiful place. The people are so polite and respectful of each other, something that seems to be missing these days in the UK. I would happily move there tomorrow if i had the money to.
Don't think About the money the money will hold you back. Learn japanese and use it and find a job there.
I’d retire there, but working there sounds like hell.
Politeness is still a thing in the UK just not as good as it used to be unfortunately. Especially in places like London

One of the reasons I love Japan is the culture. From the food to the towns, to the people, and the natural beauty from Mount Fuji to the Cherry Blossom trees. There’s just something about the culture that is just so exciting.
I can't believe a lot of us have watched him grow so much. I love how much his mind expanded. You two will have an amazing journey through life.

Japan is amazing. Japan is the leading country in technology and robotics and I absolutely love the culture and food, it's truly amazing. The scenery is beautiful too. Japan is an amazing country that has achieved so much. 🇯🇵❤️😊
Such a wholesome video. We all have our stereotypic ideas of Japan, but most of us never get the chance to actually have those stereotypes exposed to reality. Thanks, Felix, for giving us these slices of Japanese life.
I love how he did a brofist at the end
そう思います。外国は利己的で、主張して自由や権利を得るのが当たり前だから、主観的になる。調べたりせずに、都合の良い情報を信じてしまう。そして主観的だから、自分と違う価値観や常識は批判しがち。 ちゃんと調べたり、体験すれば全く違う印象になる。でも体験しても悪意で受け止める人もいる。日本人がジロジロ見てくるから、人種差別されていると言う外国人もいる。確かめてもいないのに批判する。日本では、体が大きいなーとか、派手なファッションだなーとか、悪意のないことで見ていることが多い。 日本人は利他的で客観的なので外国とは真逆です。 争うことが嫌いな平和な民族です。酷いことをされなければ、外国人にも好意的です。
To be honest Japan it's pretty good, but if there one thing I don’t really like about it is that Japanese people are as we say in my country "solapados", meaning someone that hides their thoughts in a "malicious" and cautious way, that’s why they can be "friendly" to you while at the same time they hate you and talk bad behind your back, it’s really hard to make new friends because they are always trying to cover they real intentions, thoughts and feelings, so you never know if they are genuine. Also, you should confuse certain attitudes which are not really about being nice but about being condescending.
Pewds seem so peaceful and content at this point of his life and I'm all for it. Happy for you and Marzia, and the soon baby boy!

@@kimia743 he already low key revealed it in a past video

Its important to note that his experience of living in Japan is going to be different to 99% of the people (average person) who wants to live here. The most ideal set up is his set up where he earns in foreign currency like USD for example and spends that in Japan, without having to actually "work" in Japan. That is the best because you get amazing bang for buck in Japan ANND you avoid many of the negative aspects of Japan which is associated with the working/colleague/service aspect of Japan. Working in Japan is not ideal as the salaries tend to be fairly low and you will have to work surprisingly hard for such low pay. Just keep that in mind!
I'm married to an American lady and she was definitely surprised with etiquette rules in public. prior to COVID, wearing mask in public was not something she'd seen in the US. And people wear masks from allergies to having a cold. I always tell people Japan is a great place to visit. good review.

I’m visiting Japan/Tokyo right now (from Sweden) and I can totally relate to most of this haha My mother is Korean so people assume I speak japanese because of my looks. There’s been plenty of times where people talk to me in japanese and I speak english and we don’t understand each other and it just keeps going Overall the people are super friendly and I’m impressed with how organized and functioning this society is
I'm really glad you're enjoying Japan I've had thoughts of living there myself :)
I'm glad that someone with as much influence as you has expressed positive feelings about Japan. While there may be various rules and regulations that could be seen as cumbersome to people from other countries, Japan is fundamentally a wonderful nation. Thank you for appreciating it!

I usually don’t leave comments that often but this one hit home. I just came back from my Tokyo vacation and I kinda feel depressed being back. It was a long time dream of mine to visit Japan and it was the first time but somehow I felt really comfortable everywhere I went. The people where really nice and I felt like they really cared for your problems and it didn’t felt like I was asking for too much when I was asking for help. It really felt genuine. I don’t want to romanticize anything, I know every country has its problems but I just realized that the people are just really different form where I come from. I hope everyone can find the place where they can be happy and felix genuinely seems to have found that place.

Brazil is like that, come visit us as soon as possible...
it felt like everyone i talked to there was so nice, even if could have been kind of "fake" since thats just how customer service people have to act, it was so nice and odd being spoken to so nicely even if i maybe did something in the store wrong etc. and they had to let me know. and i noticed people apologize alot more for just little things so i started doing that aswell and when i came home i caught myself being very like "im so sorry!!" about little things and people here being like "uh ok its fine calm down lmao" very often i had the "main character in a movie" feeling and it was very weird. like walking into a kind of quiet room like a store or restaurant or on a train(everyone there being japanese) and everyone turning their heads and staring so much. i figured it was since i am a foreigner i'm white and have under the butt length bright red hair,but at home i rarely get looked or stared at. i have no idea if they were thinking nice thoughts or negative thoughts about me but i tried to just not stare back lol

The best word to describe that feeling would have to be serenity, no? Completely get it though, had those same moments when in Japan, sitting in the outside onsen, and just taking in all the nature and sounds around me…feeling blessed for all that nature has given us and having the opportunity to be there
I love the fact that you are now just enjoying life and enjoying Japan as much a possible. You truly deserve it after all the years you put into making high quality content for us. And we appreciate it a lot when you occasionally upload a video or two. I believe that because you upload videos less often, the videos are very heartfelt ❤️

you should think about moving to 明石 or 流山. they are amazing fo rasing kids. almost all medical bills for kids that are under 18 in 明石
It's kinda funny that many of Japan's social rules are the same way in Sweden. Stuff like being quiet in public etc for an example.
@@user-lj1ot9np6k Akashi seems very nice actually! May look into it a bit more. My wife’s family is based in and around Hiroshima so moving there would be easier in many ways.

Tokyo is not a place that I would raise my family in, but I like Tokyo in many other ways as I have also lived there for a long time. Me and my family is back in Sweden now and we are talking about moving to Japan or getting a bigger apartment here in Sweden… Life is not easy.
I understand your last like point perfectly. You can feel the 'soul' of Japan alive in you when you're there. In the mountains, staring down a huge gorge in the pouring rain, the trickling of ankle deep waters between the streets. You can't explain it, but maybe all those temples and shrines truly kept the spirits alive all this time.

I’m from Australia and I came back from Japan last Tuesday, was my first time visiting it and I loved it. But yes I would be holding my rubbish for ages looking for a trash can 🤣 on the other hand japanese people are the most nicest people I’ve met.

@@andriatsiklauri5757 Translation: This time, I dare to leave a comment of appreciation in Japanese. As a Japanese, I am grateful to you for introducing the good and bad points of Japan to so many people in an objective and polite manner! I think Japan is a good country in terms of being a very safe place to live as well as the culture is a very good part. However, as shown in the video, the fact that people are forced to follow unreasonable rules that are not happy for anyone, even if the reasons do not make sense, is something that even from a Japanese point of view seems strange, and I feel that it is a problem that needs to be changed. (For example, if someone in a higher position than you is working overtime, you cannot go home on time because your priority is to help your boss with his/her work, even if your own work is finished, etc.) Finally, thank you for liking Japan. I will be happy if we can continue to be a country that is easy to live in for more and more people.
@@simplerealistic. wow thank you
なんと素晴らしいことでしょう
Is it true that Japan is harsh/racist to non white people especially Black people?
Felix just radiates this new calm and content energy and I'm here for that! And I must say that the way he described him having those happy moments in Japan is so well captured in his vlogs, atleast I get these vibes from them. Thank you for sharing that with us Pewds and keep on living happy and peaceful life 🙏
日本人ですら理解できないルールもいっぱいあるから海外の人は更に混乱するだろうな。 日本は住むよりも旅行するのが良いと思う。お金持ちの人なら住むのも良いと思う。 まあ最高の評価をくれてありがとう!!
It's bit sad that even Pewdiepie believed those hate propaganda Chinese and Koreans are spreading on internet. Japanese don't hate foreigners, people just don't like rowdy/noisy people. Those acting like Logan Paul are disliked. Decent people like Felix and Marzia are loved and welcomed.
Obviously you don’t understand the relationships and history between those three countries. It is also true that Japan has extreme right wing racists and imperialists - just like anywhere. Some Japanese also sell propagandas against those countries too and sometimes those propaganda books become best sellers. Don’t just blind your eyes with fantasies about Japan or anywhere. Japan is not heaven - it is a country where humans with flaws live just like anywhere.
Having been living in Japan for 2 years, I totally relate to the last reason. Somehow I notice more simple moments like the sunlight dappling through the tree canopy, or how the dusk sky can be so vivid and varies so much depending on the time and place. Definitely gonna miss those small moments once I left Japan. PS: I saw him and Connor in one of the climbing gyms here. Didn’t want to disturb so I didn’t say hi or anything but it definitely became the highlight of the day 😆
The originality of Japanese anime, manga, and games is there.
As Japanese I agree

Totally agree with the last reason too! I lived in Shizuoka for the best two years of my life and have so many fantastic, crazy, heartwarming memories. Even though that was over 14 years ago, I still think about Japan everyday! 🥰
'Komorebi' - the sunlight shining through trees My favourite word ^^
Your last reason that you can’t describe, is thanks to Japan’s compact urban design, making every elements in a city looks thoughtfully put together. This’s compliment by their collective behavior to keep those thing clean and organize, result in beautiful scenery of the most mundane street element ever.
Not really, it has to do more with being in an island. What Felix is talking about a lo Lt of people who live in islands also feel like that.
Now we know, that the reason vlogs feel so calming and like a dream (at least for me) is that Felix really does feel like that living in Japan. Good luck man!
日本に来てくれて、ありがとうございます♡
I visited Japan earlier this year and I DREAM of going back. The locals were very nice and patient. The food was some of the best I've had in so long, it made eating food from the states difficult when I got back. The rural areas are so peaceful and beautiful too, especially with everything covered in snow. It was definitely hard to adjust returning to the US.
日本のことをそう思ってくれて嬉しいです！！
iT mAkEs aMerIcAn fOoD sEeM rEpuLsIvE No, you’re just a run of the mill Japan meat rider. Go get Japanese food in America. There are Japanese places in every single major city in almost every state. America has the most accessible food on the planet. We have almost all of it. 😂
Are u white
Welcome to Japan!

フェリックスさんみたいに、英語が話せない私たちを理解してくれる外国人の方に、日本にたくさん来てほしいです。日本の悪いところも理解してくれてありがとう。がまんしてくれてありがとう。ずっとマルツィアさんとワンちゃんが日本で幸せに暮らせますように✨🙏
The translation actually made sense.
Comment 😒 Japanese comment 😍🌈🥰💕
それなです。理解して頂けるだけで嬉しいんですよね
尚ベトナムやクルド人や南米のような貧困国や発展途上国のような教育水準モラル価値観と大いに備わっておらず犯罪を犯すだけの害獣はお断り 日本に歓迎するのは、富裕層且つ日本国民が備わってるレベルの教育及びモラルや価値観の尊重
こういう日本人にありがちな”良心と感謝の押し売り”は止めた方がいいです。 シンプルに息苦しいんですよ、両者にとって
On the last point. Personally, after living about 10 years in Japan, this still holds up. It's very rewarding to live here, as long as you can keep up with the rules. It's a peaceful place, although you will never fit in 100% and you will have to answer the same questions a million times. It's part of the "gaman" you have to endure, like everyone else, though the reward is unparalleled IMO.
I totally get the dream thing, I visited Japan last December and we were in Kyoto walking around the Yasmin-jinja Shrine. We’d looked around all of it and we went out the back exit towards the hills/forest that were filled with orange and red trees with the leaves falling, and there was a pond with a Crane standing on one leg on a rock in the middle of it. It’s probably not such a crazy thing but seeing all of that together on one of our first days in Japan didn’t really feel real.
There were many things that I didn't notice because I am Japanese. Thank you for sharing your honest opinion about Japan. We will continue to support your activities.(*Ü*)
(*I am using a translator!) When I saw the word "evaluate," I thought, "I wonder if I'm going to be talked down to again...," but I was very impressed that they were willing to accept the parts of the culture that they are not good at as part of their own culture, assuming that it is "just personal. I really respected you as a human being. I will try my best to become a person with a flexible way of thinking like you. ......💪✨ PS : I was born and live in Japan. I can hear birds chirping. The sun shining brightly through the trees. I love the feeling of being filled up just by that. I am very happy to know that even people from overseas feel the same way. ☺️🌸
