I live in Japan and this level of merch obsession is literally just normal here. It’s culturally encouraged. I’ve seen greater obsession than this firsthand
@ScarabD HAHA, you don't know my world. I don't mean to be by the way incase i come cross as if am good stranger, no understands ppl us like where I"m from. They just see anime and Tototoro just as some cartoons and they don't understand why someone at their 20s would watch that stuff. I don't care anymore if I'm understood. If I were to explain myself to everyone I would never stop and the whole thing sounds exhausting so I'll just let anyone think what they wanna. Thanks though for your words, really appreciate it
The pipeline from getting a small chiikawa plush from a gachapon machine to going to a Chiikawa theme park has convinced me that Chiikawa is just the gateway drug to happiness.
@dominiccarranza2184 I can picture Jaiden’s wallet being voiced by theodd1sout and talking to Wallet-kun over how much pain they had in these recent years 😂
@symbolnone - I mean, if she can afford a casual trip to Japan, and everything in the storeS, she could probably afford an actual giant shipping container to send everything back to the States🤣.
The word at the end that you were looking for was "omiyage." It is the Japanese word for buying gifts to give to family and friends when you go on vacation ^_^
@asheronthedruidI meannn I don't think its that clear cut. Like yes omiyage is usually for other people (friends, fam, coworkers), but souvenirs don't have a distinction in who they're for.
she went from winning one chiikawa plush from a vending machine... to going to fricken chiikawa park..... that escalated quickly. EDIT: 2.5K?!!!! goodness that's a lotta likes
Not even just going to the Chiikawa Park. But justifying another trip to Japan to knowingly dump a fortune into merch and activities. No judgement at all, this is very understandable and I would do the same if I have the funds.
I would pray for her wallet if it wasnt a youtube video,a now its a tax deductible "Business expense", same as the merch that was very important for the video.
I still remember seeing the first mention of Chiikawa in this channel in the “Pokémon sent me to Japan” video. Since then, it has spiralled beyond our control. It’s getting out of hand.
I know basically nothing about Chiikawa, so the fact that there's a character in this franchise that has apparently garnered such intense and genuine hatred among the fanbase is very shocking to me
Its because that characters archetype is more so of a lovable jerk, and has some backstory which some people find to make the character awful and so evil!! But like jaiden said their loveable and its just a silly character in a silly franchise lols :]
@adityanair6540 The character they're referring to is Momonga, and Momonga's backstory shows who it (momonga) was beforehand. People in the fanbase view him as a jerk since (Spoiler Alert)** Current Momonga stole the body of the real Momonga, and so the real Momonga is stuck inside a monster's body since fake Momonga was previously a monster. People pity the real Momonga and hold slight distaste towards the Momonga that's featured way more. I highly suggest you read the Chiikawa manga or watch the anime! It's really cool :3
I know NOTHING about Chikawa, but I just love watching Jaiden go on and on about something she loves. The pure joy in someone’s heart describing something they love is so magical.
Lol I whent to a trampoline park and I did not expect how fast the slides was and it knocked the wind out of me and I made a "HUUUUUUUUUAAHH" when i hit the ramp part 😂😂😂😂😂
@somedude3050 Hyperbole (/haɪˈpɜːrbəli/ ⓘ; adj. hyperbolic /ˌhaɪpərˈbɒlɪk/ ⓘ) is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech. In rhetoric, it is also sometimes known as auxesis (literally 'growth'). In poetry and oratory, it emphasizes, evokes strong feelings, and creates strong impressions. As a figure of speech, it is usually not meant to be taken literally.
@somedude3050 actually it kinda is, if someone has enough itemized deductions they can potentially receive a tax refund instead of having to pay a tax payment
Hearing jaiden talk about her friends and how grateful she is for them snd how happy she is that they showed interest in her interests made my bawl my eyes out right before work
I actually think that Jaiden made the western people more interested in Chiikawa because when she posted her first Chiikawa video I went to the store miniso a few days later and saw a whole section dedicated to Chiikawa which had never been there before
So I know no one asked, but if you look at the searches for "chiikawa" on google trends, and the date the first video was posted, the number literally skyrocketed afterwards, i looked once out of curiosity and quite literally, so much of chiikawas popularity right now comes from jaiden, with actual numbers to back it up xD
Same! I’m glad honestly cuz I do enjoy stuff like this, here’s hoping a similar thing happens for moomin because the world isn’t obsessed with moomin enough imo.
Introducing your friends to something that you’re into and getting them genuinely into it as well is seriously one of the most rewarding social activities
Thank god I didn’t hallucinate it! You see them too! Glad their break from touring is going so well! Their fans can’t wait for their next single to drop.
When therapy is TOO expensive, there’s Chiikawa. When life gets TOO overwhelming and stressful, there’s Chiikawa. When Jaiden uploads and disappears yet again… there’s Chiikawa to keep me company 🥰
hey Jaden, I know you probably won’t be seeing this but I just wanna let you know that you are an amazing person. You have really helped me throughout my life and I thank you for that. Your animation is awesome. And your videos really make my day. :3
The only friends i have like other things and i always never had a friend who had the same interests as me Like who tf has interests in elevators, trains, smg4, klt and bfdi at the same time while also being a Jaiden animations viewer
For me personally, I am going to hold this specific 17:43 frame as her shirt is probably THE ONLY JJK FANART WE'LL EVER GET FROM HER. I MEAN LOOOOK AT THEM, YUJI NOBARA, MEGUMI AND GOJO ALL LOOKS SO CUTTTEEEEEEEEE🥺🥺🥺🥺💜💜💜
Jaden Animation, I'm writing to you for a reason: you paid for my art degree. Thank you so much, and now I'm working on an animation project. Seriously, thank you so much.
I love seeing people gush about their special interests - I mean, come on, how can you resist being pulled along by the energy? I'm glad you guys had such a good time! It looks so frikken cute honestly - all of it, the venue, the cafe's, the merch and so on
When went to Japan, I would be like "Come on, this is [character A] merch, they'll have the same in every shop that sells [character A] merch".... Actually no. I don't know how they do that, but the merch is different every time. And you will regret it if you don't queue for that small thingy you love, because quite possibly, it's not anywhere else...
@A@ArtsWithaSideOfCraftsen they were in Japan, they thought that every store that sells merchandise for a particular character would have generally the same stuff. They then learned that every store has completely different stock from each other, so if you see something at one store you like you need to buy it then and there because you’ll probably never find it anywhere else
I had the option to translate your comment to english, so I clicked it and nothing happened. So I went back to "See original (Translated by Google)". I don't know why I expected anything to change either time.
Please tell me I’m not the only one who didn’t know Jaiden had so many tattoos?! She doesn’t show her irl self in videos that much so I didn’t know she even had tattoos! She looks so cool
Jaidens tattoos surprised me too! But of course now a part of my brain is trying to remember if Jaiden really did upload a video about them or I might be imagining things 😅 welp, to the archives with me 📚📖🤓📚
I’m not hyperfixated on chiikawa but I can 100% match energy with the immense joy of this level of interacting with one’s hyperfix. I’m screaming in excitement right along with you!
friendly reminder that we still have some great stuff over at my shop (limited time!) jaidenanimations.com/
😂🎉
تبا أنا فقير
SECOND
:3
Ok
I love how Jaiden draws her friend like super pretty and polite and herself as a Creature Feature
literally chiikawa and momonga equivalents
I've grown to realize this is just something animators do after seeing my partner, an animator, drawing us both
Yeah, I do that too, it's funny and kind of sad at the same time.
well she has a team
at least she hasn't eaten anyone
That single Chiikawa doll Jaiden got randomly in Japan might have made more return on investment than any other marketing attempt. Ever
Right!?
ちいかわ投資で億万長者や!
Então aqui é o espaço multi linguístico?
And this is what we call a butterfly effect in practice. One simple little random purchase of a funny little guy turned obsession.
@Calmcapybarverkar så!
I live in Japan and this level of merch obsession is literally just normal here. It’s culturally encouraged. I’ve seen greater obsession than this firsthand
yeah I'm sure jaiden isn't very different from the otakus in japan with their shrines lol
that's nice ,yet mom here doesn't understand why i need a giant Totoro cat
@indianathe3rd742have you tried showing her My Neighbour Totoro? Surely then she’ll understand…
@ScarabD HAHA, you don't know my world. I don't mean to be by the way incase i come cross as if am good stranger, no understands ppl us like where I"m from. They just see anime and Tototoro just as some cartoons and they don't understand why someone at their 20s would watch that stuff. I don't care anymore if I'm understood. If I were to explain myself to everyone I would never stop and the whole thing sounds exhausting so I'll just let anyone think what they wanna. Thanks though for your words, really appreciate it
super pretty
They should give Jaiden like a lifetime pass or something, cause the amount of basically free marketing she has done for Chiikawa is honestly insane
The pipeline from getting a small chiikawa plush from a gachapon machine to going to a Chiikawa theme park has convinced me that Chiikawa is just the gateway drug to happiness.
And Poverty!! 😆
I didnt get til I saw that goblin
@demonheart13you're so real for that hahahah
why eat drugs when you can get 50 doses of Chiikawa merch?
I may have fallen into this pit, but DAMN.
I'm happy
These two contributed over 70% of all Chiikawa merch sales in Tokyo
They are single handedly keeping Japans economy afloat…
pretty sure the higher-ups saw that it was them and made sure they got to go there...
Si
Si si si si si si si si si si si
70? 85 at minimum
RIP Jaiden’s wallet
Emily and Jaiden's wallet at a bar
"So you too huh"
"Yeah"
@dominiccarranza2184 I can picture Jaiden’s wallet being voiced by theodd1sout and talking to Wallet-kun over how much pain they had in these recent years 😂
@dominiccarranza2184u mean her bank
Not again
She’ll make the money back with that video hopefully 😭
After seeing Sara's face, i wonder, how could they ever though she was Jaiden, they are so different
"Surely they couldn't have purchased THAT mu-OH MY GOD."
like, how do you transport them?
I think I have a shopping problem because I thought that wasn’t that bad LOL
@symbolnone - I mean, if she can afford a casual trip to Japan, and everything in the storeS, she could probably afford an actual giant shipping container to send everything back to the States🤣.
@chilly4200 The way she talked it up I was a bit disappointed at the eventual IRL photo reveal
@symbolnone I bought a second massive suitcase the first time in Japan and the second time I shipped everything home lol
“Like Jaiden in a Chiikawa shop” I’m gonna use that phrase
新たな慣用句の誕生に立ち会えて嬉しいよ😂
same
Instant remind me of how she went feral when Alpharad show her picture of herself looking at the Chiikawa merch.
Like me In a Blokees store
Same
Jaiden drawing herself in simple clothes ignoring her own dripped out outfits will never not be amusing. She truly is the queen of drip!
to be fair, that would be a bitch to animate.
LETS GO
It’s probably due to animation restrictions, but I agree with it!!!!
2025 and you all still use words like drip 😭
Endless swag
JAIDENNNN! IT'S ARI'S BIRTHDAY YOU FORGOT!!! i think
i pray one day i love something as much as jaiden loves chiikawa
Don’t you like you Swoosh, you quite literally named your channel after it
as a true Chiikawa lover would say:
"Spend all your love like Jaiden in a Chiikawa shop."
Pray it's not something as obscure as mine - Hellsing 😂
Hi Swoosh big fan love your videos ❤
I agree! Though I think I already have one…
All her animators as chikawa characters at the end was an amazing touch.
🤙 🤙 🤙 Determinism is Freedom 🤙
The word at the end that you were looking for was "omiyage." It is the Japanese word for buying gifts to give to family and friends when you go on vacation ^_^
Woah, there's a dedicated word for it in Japanese? That's so cool!
So, wait, what's the difference between Omiyage and Souvenir?
@Kurotaisa One you buy for your family and friends, the other you by for yourself.
@asheronthedruidI meannn I don't think its that clear cut. Like yes omiyage is usually for other people (friends, fam, coworkers), but souvenirs don't have a distinction in who they're for.
@ErinTheEnby In German there is one too, "Mitbringsel"
A park that the most excited I would be for is a park built around Team Fortress 2 or some other notable exceptions from Valve I like Valve
she went from winning one chiikawa plush from a vending machine...
to going to fricken chiikawa park.....
that escalated quickly.
EDIT: 2.5K?!!!! goodness that's a lotta likes
FR
Yet somehow expected
im so sorry, but I read "fricken chiikawa park" as "kentucky fried chiikawa"...... imjusthungryguysIswear
Not even just going to the Chiikawa Park. But justifying another trip to Japan to knowingly dump a fortune into merch and activities.
No judgement at all, this is very understandable and I would do the same if I have the funds.
Character development
Hasn't even been a year since Chiikawa conquored Jaiden's channel like Ghengis Khan. They're too powerful.
日本で生活していればちいかわを見ない日はありません。
『めざましテレビ』という日本で最も影響力のあるテレビ番組を制圧してからのちいかわの侵略速度の加速はすさまじいです。
I guess the Mongols aren't the exception anymore…
I know, old reference is old.
He
The moment I saw “Chiikawa” in the title I started praying for Jaiden’s wallet 😭
Your prayers were unanswered.
Same I literally thought "how much was the plane ticket"💀💀💀💀💀🗿🗿🗿🗿
I saw the title and immediately knew her wallet probably didnt survive
WW3 for wallet lol
I would pray for her wallet if it wasnt a youtube video,a now its a tax deductible "Business expense", same as the merch that was very important for the video.
JAIDEN COME BACK WE’RE HUNGRY FOR CONTENT!!!!
I know I have been waiting for 2 months now
Ture
Hope next vid is 1hr or 30mins
I still remember seeing the first mention of Chiikawa in this channel in the “Pokémon sent me to Japan” video. Since then, it has spiralled beyond our control. It’s getting out of hand.
Same. I still barely know what this little thing is😅
Same bro
Containment breach, MTF called in to administer amnestics to civilian population.
Sameeeee!!
It wasn’t out of hand already!?
I know basically nothing about Chiikawa, so the fact that there's a character in this franchise that has apparently garnered such intense and genuine hatred among the fanbase is very shocking to me
Its because that characters archetype is more so of a lovable jerk, and has some backstory which some people find to make the character awful and so evil!! But like jaiden said their loveable and its just a silly character in a silly franchise lols :]
Same
@TheHuneyAnimatorcan you give little more context
@adityanair6540 The character they're referring to is Momonga, and Momonga's backstory shows who it (momonga) was beforehand. People in the fanbase view him as a jerk since (Spoiler Alert)** Current Momonga stole the body of the real Momonga, and so the real Momonga is stuck inside a monster's body since fake Momonga was previously a monster. People pity the real Momonga and hold slight distaste towards the Momonga that's featured way more. I highly suggest you read the Chiikawa manga or watch the anime! It's really cool :3
@ilyleehanthe he fuk all of this is in a cute and cuddly characters world 😂
I know NOTHING about Chikawa, but I just love watching Jaiden go on and on about something she loves. The pure joy in someone’s heart describing something they love is so magical.
13:26 not me screaming “WADDLES” at the top of my lungs😭✌️✌️
Lol I whent to a trampoline park and I did not expect how fast the slides was and it knocked the wind out of me and I made a "HUUUUUUUUUAAHH" when i hit the ramp part 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank goodness someone else noticed
2:47 love how huntrix loves chiikawa too
Zoey would, lets be honest. And Rumi begrudgingly putting on a headband works so well
Bet they would if they were real
Yeah
@MMHUCREWMARS I mean...I also wouldn't put it past Rei Ami either.
They oso cute
Jaiden spends more on Chiikawa than Emirichu spends on collab cafes which is GENUINELY insane. 😭
I can't wait for jaiden to collab with emirichu buying merch for content
chiikawa pop up cafe next
YESSS
I’m starting to understand the people who confuse Emirichu and Jaiden a bit more now
16:44 Tax write off reveal
If those all were able to be tax write offs, I think she just wouldn't have to pay taxes. The IRS would be giving her money at that point
@bread_3728 that is not how tax write offs work
@somedude3050 Hyperbole (/haɪˈpɜːrbəli/ ⓘ; adj. hyperbolic /ˌhaɪpərˈbɒlɪk/ ⓘ) is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech.

@somedude3050 actually it kinda is, if someone has enough itemized deductions they can potentially receive a tax refund instead of having to pay a tax payment
@hny_hannie they meant they can't use these purchases as a tax right off for business expense purposes...
I’m going to a Miku expo, are ya’ll proud of me?
I like how the team are all little Chikawas
chiikawaverse
i have no idea why but i love hearing people yap about stuff they love because thats so incredibly real
Its adorable ngl. Yappers are awesome
Their passion and joy is so fun to see! I love it too!
🤙 Determinism is Freedom 🤙
Honestly ! So cute and it just makes you happy to listen to them :D
Hearing jaiden talk about her friends and how grateful she is for them snd how happy she is that they showed interest in her interests made my bawl my eyes out right before work
God bless you, wagie

WHY IS THIS UNDERRATED THIS NEEDS MORE LIKES
Lol youtube offered to "translate to english" but it just turned the hands into nonenglish characters
@iamnoone21the translated characters look to be Tamil or Malayalam
Damn some effort that
I wanna be drawn in ascii art, and then fall over and cry..from happiness
At this point, I feel like the Chiikawa company should recognize you and name you with the role of "Chiikawa Ambassador" 😂💖
YES! YES! YES! SOMEONE GET A PETITION GOING
@joshuaharris3039 I'LL SIGN
I actually think that Jaiden made the western people more interested in Chiikawa because when she posted her first Chiikawa video I went to the store miniso a few days later and saw a whole section dedicated to Chiikawa which had never been there before
Same!
So I know no one asked, but if you look at the searches for "chiikawa" on google trends, and the date the first video was posted, the number literally skyrocketed afterwards, i looked once out of curiosity and quite literally, so much of chiikawas popularity right now comes from jaiden, with actual numbers to back it up xD

I’m glad honestly cuz I do enjoy stuff like this, here’s hoping a similar thing happens for moomin because the world isn’t obsessed with moomin enough imo.
I'm sure their supply chain changes in a few days, sure
@AlonMoiseyevthat is true but what I meant is that this was the first time Chiikawa was there I would know because I go to miniso very often
Chikuwa is da cutest character to me✨️✨️✨️✨️
Introducing your friends to something that you’re into and getting them genuinely into it as well is seriously one of the most rewarding social activities
Agreed! I finally experienced that for the first time, and let me tell you there’s nothing like it
日本にいる私よりもちいかわ充してる・・・!行動力すごい!また日本にきてね~!
16:13 Was that the bite of 87
lol
Nah it’s was the bite of 83;
I love the sudden clip of the bite
You have been cursed with 67 likes
hur hur hur hur hur
@GabeZurielDaclesNOOOOOOOOO
5:54 I think this is Jaiden's cutest face yet
2:51 HUNTR/X are Chiikawa fans confirmed
LETS GOOOOOOOO
Jaiden is K-Pop Demon Hunters fan, or at least has watched the movie confirmed
@BillCipherfan1234 really?? Where did she say that
@Harperxd5554she put it in the video so she has to have watched it or heard about it
2:57 Oh.....wasn't expecting these three to make a cameo😮
Thank god I didn’t hallucinate it! You see them too!
Glad their break from touring is going so well! Their fans can’t wait for their next single to drop.
Ikr?! 😂
Seriously😂😂😂
Gold tier cameo
I thought I was on something. Thanks for confirming.
Am I the only one who gets a burst of serotonin every time Tostada shows up in Jaiden's videos now, she's such a lovable little gremlin
She is a kind little gremlin isnt ahe
Rip Jaden’s wallet, but at least Jaden was in heaven Broski
I love the fact that you drew the team members in the style of Chiikawa. Small detail, but genuinely adds a lot of charm.
Jaiden, you probably won’t see this message, but a company called Old Order made Chiikawa sneakers!
add +1 to the like count when you see it bc im probably not watching this vid again and dont wanna ruin the 101 likes of this comment so ye
What I need 😅
bold of you to assume she hasn't already bought it
When therapy is TOO expensive, there’s Chiikawa. When life gets TOO overwhelming and stressful, there’s Chiikawa. When Jaiden uploads and disappears yet again… there’s Chiikawa to keep me company 🥰
Idk I think therapy is cheaper than this 😅
chiikawa is life 😈😈😈
Chiikawa is expensive too
Chiikawa isnt just life its everything
@BobAnimatesThisyep 💀💀💀
hey Jaden, I know you probably won’t be seeing this but I just wanna let you know that you are an amazing person. You have really helped me throughout my life and I thank you for that. Your animation is awesome. And your videos really make my day. :3
I now imagine Jaiden starts saying “Jacob, spread my ashes in chiikawa park” when she gets a small cold
17:31 is very relatable. It's even better when you introduce someone to a thing you enjoy and they enjoy it equally as much as you!
I introduced a friend at work to Dungeon Meshi and yeah, we’re both equally obsessed, lol
The only friends i have like other things and i always never had a friend who had the same interests as me
Like who tf has interests in elevators, trains, smg4, klt and bfdi at the same time while also being a Jaiden animations viewer
@LaxMarch2021 what does klt and bfdi stand for?
この人何かあるごとに日本に頻繁に来てくれてうれしい
5:20 Still reading right to left. Nice.
8:51 ABSOLUTE CHIIKAWA ✋😐🤚
Yes!
Why is there a translate to English doing here
Yes!
Hello, reaction image
13:53 I have never read a single word of Chiikawa, but that egg blanket is the cutest damn thing ever
絶対にちいかわを読まないでください🙂

@U_R_NO_LONGER_ALONE i want to ruin my life more than i already have
@U_R_NO_LONGER_ALONE ok 😅
@n0t_st4rsh1p this is so tuff and cold🥶🥶🥶🥶✌️😹
@U_R_NO_LONGER_ALONE UH *why?*
4:15 bliss from suffering
Me depression and friends just try cheering him but they have fun:
thank you jaiden u have turned me into a big fan of chiikawa and hatsune miku
私もちいかわ大好きです。
私はハチワレ派です😊
ジェイデンさんがRUclipsで沢山紹介してくれて嬉しいです。
みんなで“ちい活(chiikathu)”楽しみましょう!
“ちい活”→ちいかわ活動の略語。
意味:ちいかわを買って楽しむ事。
I don’t speak Japanese, but I love the portmanteau usage! :D
I want to learn Japanese so I can come and enjoy chiikatsu! (´。• ᵕ •。`)
greater obsession
"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Chiikatsu Tokyo wgah'nagl fhtagn."
Rest in peace to Jaiden’s wallet, this dude has suffered more than any character on this channel
Jaiden and Emirichu being the wallet species’ worst enemies
Wallet lives matter
The fact Jaiden's Chikawa obsession has led her to make another video about it makes me think this might just turn into a new series.
Good
@awesomefox555 (Sheeving intensifies)
0 dollars

100% addiction

16:50 HOLY SH*T
2:45 MIRA AND ZOEY IN JAIDEN’S ART STYLE IS SMTH I DIDNT KNOW I NEEDED NOR EXPECTED
For me personally, I am going to hold this specific 17:43 frame as her shirt is probably THE ONLY JJK FANART WE'LL EVER GET FROM HER. I MEAN LOOOOK AT THEM, YUJI NOBARA, MEGUMI AND GOJO ALL LOOKS SO CUTTTEEEEEEEEE🥺🥺🥺🥺💜💜💜
2:13 THEY'RE GLORIOUS
IKR
18:37 I see Jacob with a Momonga keychain. Meaning the Momonga is probably his favorite character to.
19:07 ah yes, the Chiikawa shrine
"But ultimately it was too cute to fully question the morality of it." -Jaiden, 2025
This is precisely why people fall for the likes of Beep The Meep.
8:46 absolute Jaiden
Jaden Animation, I'm writing to you for a reason: you paid for my art degree. Thank you so much, and now I'm working on an animation project. Seriously, thank you so much.
new aesthetic: Jaiden doing all she can to go to Miku and Chiikawa events
16:59 this is the greed they talk about in the Bible
Biblical greed 😭
For sure
Chiikawa best Bible character confirmed
😭🙏
Tbf she gave it to her friends
I love seeing people gush about their special interests - I mean, come on, how can you resist being pulled along by the energy? I'm glad you guys had such a good time! It looks so frikken cute honestly - all of it, the venue, the cafe's, the merch and so on
The cafe looked like a nightmare for a wallet. How are you going to not buy one of everything.
3:14 chiikawa looks soooo cute!❤❤❤❤
16:56 Jaiden… your dedication (obsession) to keeping the fandom merch industry held up on yoir shoulders is… admirable, truly admirable 🥹
When went to Japan, I would be like "Come on, this is [character A] merch, they'll have the same in every shop that sells [character A] merch".... Actually no. I don't know how they do that, but the merch is different every time. And you will regret it if you don't queue for that small thingy you love, because quite possibly, it's not anywhere else...
Uh 👁️👄👁️ I don’t get it 🧱
@A@ArtsWithaSideOfCraftsen they were in Japan, they thought that every store that sells merchandise for a particular character would have generally the same stuff. They then learned that every store has completely different stock from each other, so if you see something at one store you like you need to buy it then and there because you’ll probably never find it anywhere else
8:51 Absolute Chikawa🖐😐🤚
PLEASE FIX THE HANDS I BEG
@JammingBear ✋🖐🤚these 3 are the only ones there are on yt 🥀
my day is ruined now until you fix the hands, thanks
whys everyone crashing out over the hands, its going the right way chill😭🙏
I had the option to translate your comment to english, so I clicked it and nothing happened. So I went back to "See original (Translated by Google)". I don't know why I expected anything to change either time.
CHIIKAWA PARADISE
キャラクターグリーティングで、推しのモモンガに会えるなんて、本当に幸運ですね。日本を楽しんでもらえて良かったです。良いお友達がたくさんいて良いですね!(Jaidenさんのブロークンな日本語、可愛くて良いと思う😂)
ちいかわは世界を救う❤
Jaden needs to make a video on her tattoos, I would be so interested in that lol
As of March 4th, 2026, The CHANNEL IS 12 YEARS OLD YIPEEE!!
まじでアニメーション凝ってて最高
The K Pop Demon Hunters reference was something that made my brain feel good
Mine too❤❤❤❤❤
mine felt bad i dont like that cringy ass movie
I enjoyed how on character their reactions were.
@anna_aux_fraises then cry and stay mad
Next she’s gonna add Pixar’s ELIO NEXT?!
17:41 ourple.
Just being a fly on the wall of two girls unapologetically fangirling the hardest they've ever fangirled is extremely wholesome

Such a peak reference
OMGGG GRAVITY FALLZ
My ex wife still misses me but her aim is getting better
"LOOK AT THIS MENU, GUYS, HUMANITY HAS PEEKED!"
...man, I feel a lot less weird about my Digimon addiction. Thanks Jaiden!
Me with Jojo
Don't feel weird about it at all! Digimon is awesome.
@kylegonewild Heck yeah it is! And having a GREAT year, with another to come I hope!
Hachiware: *Having an existential crisis*
Jaiden: *Selfie time*
Dont get me wrong, Chiikawa is AMAZING AND ADORABLE (Even if I dont know much abt it) But that one Gravity Falls reference made my dayTT
Jaidenさんのちいかわ動画が観たいと思っていたところでした(自動翻訳になりますが、日本でちいかわツアーを楽しめたようで何より😊)
ご存知かもしれませんが、日本では朝のニュース番組「めざましテレビ」にて、ちいかわが放送されています。
アニメ放送後にスタジオに映像が切り替わると、伊藤さんという男性アナウンサーがいいリアクションをしてくれるんです。
