What do Japanese hate about Japan? 

Hi from Baku Azerbaijan thanks for video dude...

Great video, Shuya! What I really like about your videos, is that is seems that the people you interview are actually giving their honest opinion. (In contrast: I have watched similar interviews with Japanese people where you see that they are too polite to give their honest opinion). I also really liked your own personal views at the end. Keep it up 👍

This channel is going big soon

Great video

It's funny some things they don't like are things many foreigners like about Japan. The point about "over" politeness of staff is a lot better than the indifference or outright rudeness you often get in the west. And caring about your appearance and weight is a positive compared to the normalisation of obesity in the west. Body positivity is all well and good, but promoting unhealthy bodies is dangerous.

I totally agree with all of them. Im happy that even japanese notice those things that foreigner notice too. But my problem is that when i open up about these topics too japanese people they get upset

Thanks for the video man! awesome content!

Great video, great opinions, thank you!

Nothing to hate about Japan. You have one of the most orderly and successful societies on earth. Be proud. Fascinating cultural. Your English is excellent Shuya.

Great video shuya!

That last girl with glasses...I bet she is absolutely beautiful.

Even in their expression of wanting to be less identical in thought and presentation they all presented the same thought. I guess they're all right :D

Good going !!

It's interesting that a common theme seems to be the belief that the country is too collectivist. When they're actually one of the least collectivist countries in Asia. Still way more so then Amaricans or Australians and I suppose those are the countries they compare themselves to a lot.

Honestly: I've spent about 7 years working in Care Industry and Education Industry. In both of these I have to put my individual needs aside in order to SERVE others: To HELP others. Doing that continuously: It has changed me. What do I wish my society did more of? I wish my society was more thoughtful and considerate of others in public and in groups and NOT so individualistic and egotistical or simply HEEDLESS of others situations. My culture constantly pumps out "Me, Me, Me!" individualism and I don't think it helps make people feel better or be better people. I understand the burden the Japanese talk about: It's not easy ALWAYS putting others first and feels sometimes very exhausting. But equally, even in their criticism of this system they are moderate, considerate, articulate and come across very well! And that is because of all the things they criticize! Equally, I have to deal with systems that say they do one thing but end up doing another or not working at all or being really bad at what they say they do! In Japan the idea of people performing a service seriously is amazing in comparison. The only area I think Japan does badly: The Over-Time is excess. Balance of Life + Work is a better sustainable model and more in keeping with human or biological cycles and tempos and rhythm. The OT concept is incredibly CRUDE treating humans as mechanical which is a much less complex system than what humans are made of! That's a big mistake.

Interesting video. This was a good insight. I think the more people speak out about these things, the more likely things’ll change. Every country has its pet peeves and Japan’s no exception. I do hope things get better and more flexible in terms of mindset.

Keep going man🔥 im just subscribe you right now 👍

Great video! I wonder what the opinion of the Gen Zs are in Japan.

hi i came from your tiktok, i'm a 帰国子女 who has a love and hate relationship with japan lol every time i came back to japan for break i always felt weird about certain things, and i guess it might just be from 逆culture shock but since i'm really fascinated about this topic, so i will list them out although no one asked

Did you say in your previous video of what Japanese envy that some Japanese didn’t like foreigners’ values? I missed that part. Can you explain a little please?

I love Japanese people, there always positive and nice. I think some might be cute and sexier than me.

Dam I got longer hair than most Japanese holy shit.

Individualism is not a good thing. We pay the price in the West. A society needs harmony and ethics. And for this, Japan is perfect. Stay Japanese, please.

Shyua! What'up.very insane - see you later~🤩
