10 Japanese Things America Needs 

Thanks to our sponsor, Take Me to Japan! Check them out if you’re interested in visiting Japan and learning Japanese! :D They have a few quick tips for those of you looking into moving here, just visiting, or learning the language: 1. Language school is one of the best ways to come to Japan; the wonderful staff and people at the school will provide a great support network for you, so you are not alone on your journey. 2. There are over 500 language schools in Japan. Every school has a different atmosphere. Some are really casual, helping you learn Japanese without feeling like you’re studying. Others are more serious with students studying towards proficiency tests. Take Me To Japan will help you choose and apply to the one that suits your needs, and they’ll even help with visas and finding accommodation. 3. Learning Japanese will help you experience Japan more fully, and will expand your career opportunities to things other than teaching your native language. 4. There is no age or education limit; whether you are 14, in your 20s, or in your 50s, you are welcome to join. Even if you know zero Japanese. 5. You can come for as short as one week to up to 2 years or more. There are a variety of courses where you can do everything from enjoy a memorable trip learning conversational Japanese, try fun cultural activities, or study hard toward getting into a Japanese university or finding a job in Japan. There are many jobs open to foreigners once you’re living in Japan, and it’s much easier to apply for them if you’re living here rather than from your home country. 6. You will meet people from all around the world, with many different backgrounds (students, professors, business owners, etc.). 7. All other information is on the website, so please read the FAQ and send an inquiry there! -> www.takemetojapan.com

Here in Japan toilets can talk to you and cure your depression

Jun’s just on the side being like “Yup this is my wife”

I love how Rachel is like “OH MY GOD AMERICA WHAT THE HECK” and jun is like “yep”

One time a kid crawled under the bathroom stall door and I screamed " omg! get the fuck out!" out of pure shock and first instinct, and guess what? The dad freaking berated me for cursing out his son and told me to go back to my own country( he didn't see me but he can tell I got an accent)............ I was literally speechless.

"I like my toilet. I wish I could take it to America." -Jun 2018

They should rename this “Businesses you can start in America and get rich from”

Japan: we should really focus on more important things... Also japan: TOILETS NEED MORE FEATURES

"You can use flushing sounds if you don't want anyone to hear you" *In school I always have to wait until someone uses the hand dryers* ;(

I have always DESPISED American bathrooms. Thank you for pointing out those horrible demon doors

#11: Japanese Moving Companies

I love how Rachel's method of convincing you to get the products is her usual craziness with cuts to cat footage, whereas Jun pitches the products like it's Shark Tank. It's perfection.

This just adds more to my list of “Why I should go to Japan”

That moment when you realize your toilet has more functions than your phone.

“They come and do the thing, and then they leave” 😭😂😭😭 I need a call button for everyone in my life 🙈

Your hair is so beautiful! In the 1960s and 70s, straight hair was popular among American teens. But we had no straightening perm and hot straighteners didn't work well. Solution: We put our long hair on an ironing board and our mothers ironed it.

5:30 NOW THIS. This is heaven.

also consider: - trains - train stations - train network - the freaking Yamanote line that rides to every important part of Tokyo every-3-minutes!!

I bet if we had restaurant call buttons in america customers would totally abuse it

I like how Jun is just smiling most of the time.

Rachel: emotional talking Jun *I'm just gonna smile...*

“Public toilets can play flushing noises if you are embarrassed and don’t want others to hear you use the bathroom” this might be the most considerate thing I have ever seen ;;

I must admit, I'm not from Japan I'm from England but when I have been to America the toilet stall doors got me. You could do the limbo under those things, it's crazy!

2:50 forgot to meow the swear word 😂 like 1:19

I want to order mosquito repellent gadget Please make a list of products we can order from Japan.

It's so funny, I always heard Aussies complain about bathroom doors in America. It wasn't until I moved to Thailand that I realized how right they were - and how basically EVERY OTHER CIVILIZED PLACE IN THE WORLD has bathroom doors that are full doors without visible space along the sides. Why, America? Why??!

**Top 10 reasons why I love Japan.**

One thing I loved about visiting Japan was the bath. I enjoy a quick shower every now and then but a nice big hot bath is always great.

Kotatsu also needs to be a thing here in the West. I want a blanket-table with a heater underneath for my feetsies

Those toilet seat covers are good for houses without boys who are learning

I like the way that when Rachel is speaking Jun is just sat there smiling looking into my soul

Thanks much for your videos..am new to your videos, have seen you with Sharle..on different videos. Decided to watch a few of yours really love the info you give in this video: Thanks so so much for Take me to Japan! I know it's the "in thing" right now and everyone wants to move to Japan or Korea..maybe I'll be one of those everyone...in the future... Really funny, informative overall worth watching!! Love the helpful tips about frizzy hair.. mosquitoes..bidet mix toilet Food samples... Loved your video about American Vs British English Am a Canadian teaching English in Italy...face this alot!!

Toilet seat covers were a thing in America... back in the 60s and early 70s. I view them as something only a grandmother would want... because those were the only people in my family that ever had them.

Japan has magic teeth healing toothpaste. It truly is the land of wonders.

I looked it up, and it seems that the reason Apagard isn't available in the US is because the patent for the active agents in the product was bought, then immediately removed from the shelves. I'm assuming this is because it worked too well and would drive other products out of business. Glad it's at least available on Amazon.

the stall door thing is a problem in Australia when I was -in grade- 5, a guy crawled under my draw and then opened it up for everybody in the bathroom to see me I have had to deal with SO MANY KIDS looking under doors! one of them even started screaming! my friends have never had to deal with this so maybe in just unlucky? anyway- never go to a public bathroom Edit: I accidentally said grade 5, I was 5 years old in prep (idk what people would call it overseas)

I love how jun is sitting there smiling while watching his wife go insane

WHAT THE MEOW WE'RE BACK WITH ANOTHER VIDEO

The more you leave the US the more you realize that America is super different from the rest of the world.

1:09 that waffle with strawberries looks delicious 😞

4:02that is so cute Rachel with poki cuddling in a bed is the sweetest thing ever Sooooooooo cute!!!!!

4:01 Everyone needs a Poki to snuggle with in bed.

"I wish i can bring my toilet to america" Don't worry I got you *calls Japanese moving company*

It’s so cute how Rachel is just popping off and Jun is enjoying every second of it!

I loved seeing the food samples I thought that was the coolest thing! And you really did the food it the way it was pictured in the window, I miss Japan!!!😩😩😩😩

As someone from a major city I appreciate how clean and quiet the train station is. Also, I love how dark alleys are the best thing here. Go down an alley in Chicago and get robbed. Go down an alley in Japan and find a new restaurant or bar!

i don't think only america needs this, i think every other country also needs all of these!!

SERIOUSLY thank u. I visited Japan totally enjoyed. For awhile thought about living there.

The solution to bed mats here seems to be fleece sheets. I've gotten a couple sets from costco, and they're fantastic in the winter - soft, cuddly, and warm.

America’s public bathroom doors are soo horrible. you don’t even get a kid looking from underneath, they can see you from the 1inch side slits you guys have I felt more privacy doing it in the woods than a civilised toilet

I. NEED. THOSE. BATHROOM. DOORS. TOO MANY TIMES HAS A CHILD COME IN AND MAKE ME.PANIC BECAUSE THAT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES BEFORE.

I have wanted one of those amazing toilets forever. The toothpaste and the beautiful straight perm are both amazing! My hair frizzes like crazy. I am definitely ordering the toothpaste right away!

I'm sure yins won't even see this, but I just wanna say I just became a new subscriber to your channel, I love ur cat videos, and I just came across your other videos like the moving one, it was really cool, so with that said, I'd like to say I'm a server and some times when "we disappear" for 10-15 mins we are in the back of the restaurant getting back ups for the salad bar, or making soups/salads, and we normally have multiple tables at one time so we are also waiting on other tables which also need soups or salads or something else, and especially when we are busy, to be honest sometimes we accidentally forget something, it happens, we're just human trying to multitask and try to keep the customers as happy as possible, and make a living for our family, it's not that easy when your waiting on 20+ different people all at one time, idk about other restaurants but at the one I work at us servers have to do everything but dishes and cook the food and even sometimes we have to help with those also, we roll silverware in the napkins, have to make bread, and again ALL salads and/or soups people order, get deserts, some times we have to cut stuff up for salads or specially drinks, etc. So there's alot more going on behind the scenes then most people realize, especially when they have NEVER work in that industry, and it's said because it happens to me all the time, I only make $2.83 an hour plus tips and that's before taxes, there are days I work for 6 hours and only make $18 all because people don't tip good cause their server "disappeared" so again I'm sure yins won't see or read this but next time yins or anyone that does see this, is at a sit down restaurant with waitresses/servers please keep in mind your not always the only table and there's more going on in the back of the restaurant then you realize.....Thank you!

We live in 2018 Japan live in 8018

*THE MEOW IS THIS* ? Thanks I got my new slang for this year to use.

1:21 HOLY *MEOW* THERES A PERSON STARING INSIDE THE STALL IN THE CRACK

There's some great ideas here. We could do with them in UK too xx thanks for sharing.

I 100% complain about the fact that we don't have pictures and/or at least menus outside of restaurants here ALL THE TIME! WHY CAN'T WE AT LEAST PUT OUT A MENU!?

My old dentist is such a liar said there was no way to rebuild that stuff. Should I get one to throw at him?

Oh my god. Japan is one of my dream vacation destinations. That website is going to be supee useful. Thank you!!

I need some of that kitty litter _that way my cat doesn't track poop litter dust through my room._

The Poki blanket snuggle made me scream in happiness. I love cats so much.

You missed my favorite. I've been dreaming of owning a kotatsu since I discovered they exist.

thank you for the information

“I like my toilet I wish I could take it to America” -Jun

WTH, Rachel is getting prettier and prettier, NO JOKE.

"Japan is a very humid country." **laughs in Australian.**

Ouuu the meal sample thing- I live in Guam and some Japanese restaurants have those... I always thought it was really cool

I neeeeeed that hair straightener thing (My hair is just like Rachel's hair)

When Rachel's just ranting. Jun just sits there and smiles... "like Mah Wifeee......"

4:02 Poki is so done with your human shenanigans.

hello from Canada :) I just ordered the toothpaste on amazon :) thank you! I loved this video.

Actually America had those types of bathrooms, because think about this, if you were to die silently laying on the floor in Japan, no one would know, but in America you can clearly see if they’re hurt, it was a safety hazard:)

3:06 I feel attacked bc I’m watching this from an American toilet.

arcades, stores, vending machines, smart toilets, cheery blossom trees, low crime rate, themed cafes, micro hotels, students that clean their schools and everything else

4:07 I NEED one of these being a resident of northern Canada cuz it gets so cold in the winter here!

At 1:17 the reason they keep that part open is for ex: you can see if some has fainted on the floor and needs help you can crawl under the door to get to them. So it’s for safety if they need to get in there they can just crawl under the door to get there without having to bust down the door and it’s cheeper.

My high school has stalls like Japanese bathrooms except the entire stall is bulletproof

I have one of those mattress toppers! It also has an attachment that you can plug in to heat it.

I'm late, but after seeing the toothpaste, I instantly bought one and it is arriving next week! I can't wait!

Rachel cracks me up.. i just have one question: Does Rachel crash and sleep for a week until she wakes to do another video? There's no way she has that much energy all the time!

Flush noises! This literally fix my bathroom anxiety!!! But yeah those toilet covers, id be washing them after every use. No bueno for me.

I love when Rachel talks about the seat cover.

We've had the mosquito sprayers in Alaska for decades....yes decades. They are usually mounted on a hall wall and spray a little mist set on a timer. Buc-ee's has really stepped up in the toilet stall game. We have several different types of cat litter (recycled paper pellets, etc.) We actually use horse bedding (little pine pellets). It costs about 1/4 of what most other litters cost. I also remember having fluffy toilet seat covers as a kid, but they were so unsanitary that most people stopped using them. They were super fluffy, but not washable.

Jun: "I like my toilet. I wish I could take it to America." 😂😂😂

You can't forget the most important thing to consider: - Decent People

The accuracy!!!

Please make more videos!! 😀 i am new here, just discover your channel and it’s so cute & entertaining

You forgot their greatest invention that has taken countless victims - the kotatsu. Once the kotatsu takes you in its warm embrace, you can never leave it.

I am a Japanese who can not speak English. I want to be able to speak English when you are watching the two of you! Bright and cute Rachel. Even if I see it from a Japanese person, Jun is cool. I love you two people! I am looking forward to the future from now ('∀ `) Food sample is rice terrorism! And thanks for me who can not speak English, Google translation!

I love these videos

Just bought the toothpaste on amazon. Great reviews on it. Thanks!

*#1.* *manners*

I’m getting sweaty just looking at the bed sheet cover

I love Japan even more now... I've always wanted to visit Japan, but since last year I want move there. I am 15 now, so its not posible right now ( I wish it was😂). I started to learn japanese on my own, but I have to admit its harder than I expected. I am from Czech Republick and my parents think I must have gone crazy. But I am serious about moving into Japan. Part of my family ( from dads side) are from America, so he understands me more than my mom, who is 100% czech. I am studying law here in Prague, but I dont really know if this will help me in Japan. I really like to watch your videos, but sometimes I just get jealous soo I cant wach anymore😂😂😂😂 Say hello to Japan from me🤗😉

Idk if anyone has said this but the tall restroom stall doors are actually an accessibility thing, which is why you don’t see it in other countries. The ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) has building code standards- the stall doors are this tall for wheelchair users so their feet don’t get stuck.

There was a "What the Meow" that wasn't censored....

Moral of the video: study abroad in Japan to get yourself a Jun

I love all of these and the toothpaste is going to revolutionize my life since I've also had a scratch on one of my front teeth that I've never been able to fix! That being said any black or hispanic salon in America will do a straight perm. We love them straight perms.

0:45 Thats no Problem in Austria 🇦🇹 too because we just have the sauces on the table
