IS JAPAN LIVING UP TO OUR EXPECTATIONS? ASK FOREIGNERS ABOUT EXPECTATIONS OF JAPAN 

i backpacked japan, for over 2 months, i dropped my train pass so many times and someone would give it to me kindly, you see bicycles everywhere with no chains (can't do that in my city they will be stolen & sold at the fleamarket), whenever i was lost and asked (most japanese can understand english or understand when you are lost point at a map say 'doko desu ka')they would walk me all the way to my destination out of kindness instead of pointing or telling me the way made me feel bad....they could be missing work. when it was raining i noticed most 4 way traffic light intersections have random extra umbrellas hanging for people who dont have umbrellas, and whenever i met people they would offer me food, stories, advice, and be so curious about myself. this country is a very loving country. i do not care the stereotype of people saying it's emotionless or depressing because it is not, many people are not, those who are have reasons not everyone is the same. it is quite because they have a very polite, gracious, and thoughtful culture. it is interesting looking into them now and the art of the past, it has always been a thing for them to love imperfections, to be imperfect to them is perfect, very interesting.

when I came to Japan the first time, the respect, humility and peace is there. Very nice place

最後のアメリカ人が言ってたとおり、このチャンネルは素晴らしい活動をしていると思います。日本の政府や企業はこの動画に出てくる外国人達の感想を貴重な意見として受け入れて、今後のさらなる発展に繋げるべきだと思います。

7分以降の内容が素晴らしいです、それとバイリンガルの字幕に感謝です海外の人にも関心が持たれる内容に感動しました・・ありがとう66歳の私から見ても素晴らしい。・。

The black girls are awesome. Well dressed. Well spoken. Very cute. Loved what they had to say.

I was blown away, I had a very positive attitude and was expecting good things from Japan, but man, I literally was in awe when I visited Japan. Everything I was expecting turned out to be 10 times better. I love Japan, its culture and its people. Will definitely be back next year.

Cathy unknowingly interviewing Dr. Phils family is quite funny. Shoutout to "M T" in the comments who pointed it out.

The 4 women looked really smart

It might be bad to say it, but Japan is actually just like in the anime. Spent 2 months there doing part time jobs and moving a bit, and whenever I look back, i feel like I was in a fecking slice of life, romcom anime.

Interesting video, sharp insight opinions really open my local Japanese eyes.. I hope foreign visitors will come back and enjoy Japan soon again.

最初にインタビューされてる女性髪の毛綺麗すぎいいいいいい！！！！

I love seeing peoples' perspectives of their first time in Japan. I'm excited to see what my experience will be like when I visit Misawa this August.

Japan is so cool!!! I want to visit tokyo in the summertime cause its colorful, culture, the people are friendly and also the nightlife (nightclubs) and the food THE FOOD IS SO COOL!!!!

学校で先生がこの動画を紹介してくれました！ 日本の良さも悪さも見えてこのチャンネルが大好きです！

the two blonds must be sisters cause their voice is almost identical! it`s eary... (obviously they also look alike, but you can do that with makeup and a similar hairstyle)

That last woman got really deep into things

I'm laughing because one of the Swiss guys expecting to see more geeks in Shibuya. Was he looking for his fellow geeks? It would be like me going to Switzerland and expecting to hear yodeling from the Swiss

First love your videos Cathy!!

When i went to japan, i was expecting the shyness... However, i couldn't find any shyness anywhere, they are all kind and helpful. Each of them has their own individualities. I think they don't get shy since i am an asian

I love Cathy ❤

I am visiting Japan next year and I cant wait to visit but need to knuckle down and start working on learning as much Japanese as I can before I go

At one point, you can hear Kyary Pamyu Pamyu blasting in the street👍🎶.... HOW IS THIS NOT BETTER THAN EXPECTED! :D i wanna move so much.

I'm going to Japan in 2020 and I've been watching so many different RU-vidrs in Japan that I'm going to know exactly what to expect! I would love to meet with you while on my trip. Which area of Tokyo do you do most of your interviews? I'd love to chat with you and say hi :)

目から鱗。面白かったです。

東京は、日本人にとっても、いつもエキサイティングだ👍大好きです☺

It's hilarious that you were just filming random foreigners, and ran into a few B-grade celebrities.

いやいや、日本で作られている階段は下から見てもスカートの中は見えない様な角度に作られていますよ。見てる本人がかかんでれば別ですけど。

だんだんとキレイになっているね😅

LOVED IT.............

... stick broom things .. :DD really? are they so rare that people don`t recognize it as an everyday normal item :D ?!?!

Kathy next video should be about foreigner movies that Japanese has watched

The American couple on the right is Dr Phil son and her daughter in law.And she is one of the triplet

キャティがドイツ人だとは知らなかった。だが、カワイイがハマったファッションがナイス👍

wth I recently watched a show with the 2 blond women, they were saying they were identical triplet (they had a 3rd sister lol). That's so weird! everytime I see something whatever it is, I'll see something related to it a few days after

Dr Phil's son? lol, nice ^^

Were the 2 ladies (part of) triplet sisters? I swear they look like the same ladies that were in a recommended RU-vid video about DNA testing. BTW, loved the video!

Hey, it's Jay McGraw, Dr. Phil's son. (Dr. Phil is a talk show in the U. S.)

ゲルマン人？かどうかは分からないけど、sooooo beautiful!

This was an awesome video to get different perspectives from :)

I love your videos Cathy Cat, I was wondering where you got the purple star hair clip it's so cute and I would love to get one!

How many language does cathy cat speak? I am believe many peoples interet the story of Cathy Cat about why and when she is in Japan, how she learn Japanese etc....

man shes so cute..

サムネの2人がマトリックスのツインズかと思ってバイクで高速道路を全力で逆走しそうになるww

Honestly, Japan is my home away from home.

The blonde woman at the beginning is so beautiful

Hehehheh, I like how the people say they themselves become more appreciative when they come to japan. It's really true, it takes a true b*tch to not feel that way.

Yeah, I find the standard of what's too much skin to be very strange. Cleavage is a big no-no, but girls can wear skirts as short as can be. Even girls who are just in high school wear mini skirts. And it's just considered cute, not even that sexy. But as a foreigner, I'm looking at it thinking, "How could a mom let her daughter go out wearing that?"

so it is true many patsu shots to see

last damn it 😁

I might go on the escalators a lot when I visit Japan.....

"stick broom things" lmao

I understand that all those foreigners are there for a temporary residence or something, right? Because I was thinking of going to Japan and getting a job, but I heard a lot of negative opinions about the gender equality in Japan, is it really that bad?

Look how PC the people are commenting LOL LOL LOL it's all so amazing LOL LOL

0:31 Dr Phil's son

OH MY GOD!!!! That guy on the right with the blonde twins is Dr. Phil's son!!!! hahahahaha!!! (Dr. Phil is a really famous personality in America. And he has his own talk show.)

日本語話しているの聞いてみたい。登録しました。

Is it just me or does she somewhat resemble Christina Applegate? xD

It doesn’t seem like any of these people actually LIVE in Japan... bet those answers wouldn’t be so exponentially positive.

There's so many Australians lol

I have never been to Japan, but my impression is that the portrayal in popular media must be sanitized. You never seem to see much abject poverty and starvation or violent crime and corruption, and the overall landscape looks frighteningly antiseptic. It scares me and makes me think that grim reality is being hidden from view. There is also disappointingly little real wilderness and everywhere seems overpopulated and full of advanced technology and infrastructure. Then again, I come from a country known for bucolic westerns and gritty film noir.

Anybody else watching this on their toilet???

Isn't that dr phil son ?

I'm flat..i don't have to worry. xD

インタービュアーの女性のすっぴんのの顔観た 事有るけど日本人に顔が近いですね・。 先祖に日本人がいたかもね・。

the first guy with the blondes is Dr phils son

Cathy Cat... do you ever get hot wearing these fluffy clothes!?

The first thing I will do after getting in Japan is to take a glance on the bottom stairs in the mall area 😏😏😹

What is CLEAWAGE?

1組目は叶姉妹的な感じ？w

スイスが孤立している理由がこれかな

アメリカは色んな国の人がたくさんいるから、マナーばっかり気にする日本人みたいにしてたらやってられないよね。 アメリカは心が広いって事だしどちらもいいと思う。 疲れたらアメリカとか海外に言って羽伸ばして、休んだら日本ぐらいがちょうどいいかも笑

I think the African American girl confused you to be Japanese lol

What I found strange after coming to America for the first time was the unusual amount of sagging pants and the open usage of drugs.....like what!?

did that malaysian dude almost say Para Para Sakura...I almost died LOL. To be honest, whatever J things used to be popular back in the days..about 15-20 years or so... Nowadays, they're more focus on K things.. What I remembered from way back when was some J dramas, movies, music and anime.. Nowadays, I see only animes (highkey I still watch Doraemon and Shin Chan every saturday 7-8PM on NTV7 - ya'll be living in Malaysia would know what im talking about LOL) J music is very rare on national channels LOL..So i don't know what is this dude talking about Johnny's and Arashi (unless he meant youtube or fb sharing lol)...Jmusic is basically "almost" NON existence UNLESS you have pay tv like Astro cables and such and its still rarely talk/shown about if its not on animax channels or couple of channels (maybe i missed out) What's popular still here in Malaysia is cosplays...and thats it

That cute bearded Swiss guy tho

As a half American it's so embarrassing to hear some of the answers from the American people.

Lmao I love how when there are questions about "foreigners " that basically means to them the US, Korea, and Europe, like what happened to the rest of the world?? Also when talking about the US specifically, and its people, they are all thought to be white as if white people are native to America?? And America is so diverse. Idk it just confuses me how "colonised" Japanese people are even though they were never overtaken by Europeans or enslaved they seem to have such great images of the West that I don't really see in Japanese media. Does anyone know why this is? (genuine question)

I think the last woman talk for all of us

I wore a lot of low cut crop tops when I was in Japan. Oops -.-' I stayed over at my friend's parent's house but they never warned me for that or even treated me differently or looked at me funny or with judgement. But I guess that might just be their politeness then? Oopsie =/

they're not open to fashion, they just prefer not to speak their mind lol

Yang sayang aku like yang cinta allah coment.

Kathy you could have Japanese react to youtubers including popular RU-vidr Ricegum

The 2 blondes were amazing!!!

That dude in left side of first interviewed ones is with wrong girl as she is laughing at him even during interview

So can men show their shoulders or chest or man-nips?? Also I loved what the black women had to say :-3 // also I think they were politely saying that Japanese aren't like the White Racist Americans in the US ^^

So it's just like how I expected it to be.-_- anime

It's funny how western people respect all cultures but when it comes to Middle East they find us retarded because we have dress code rules, I live in Dubai UAE and we have rules to not wear very short or show too much skin I'm talking here about very very short clothes, it's fine to wear shorts but not very short, but tourist never ever respect this, even though many locals feel offended by this and showing emotions like kissing in lips is not allowed but they keep doing it.

日本人女性は胸が小さいので、谷間を作る文化が無いですwww

胸元を見せないのは、同性の視線がスゴイんです！女の敵は女。。。

I really hope you weren't wearing real fur! (puke) Really!
