The best thing is when they drop the joke ("We are xenophobic") and they just look at you in silence for a while, letting you digest the absurdity for a couple of seconds.
Ziррегhеаd Monty Python at their finest 👍🏻
They are not xenophobic. They identify as xenophobic.
The funny thing is that they do admit to treating white foreigner better than other races, so that is _both_ racist and xenophobic 😏
it's not absurd, it's the truth
@@maegalroammis6020 I’ve experienced xenophobia during my time there, but learning the language goes a long way towards combatting that by humanizing oneself. Also, more than anything my experience of Japan was one of compassion, warmth and Humanity. There are racists everywhere. It’s just a facet of the inhuman dystopia we live in. At the end of the day, sentient nanite swarms are Human everywhere one goes.
My wife's aunt visited Japan for a week and came back bitching because...nobody spoke English. So yep, you nailed it.
It is hilarious when people say that, but at the same time, the Japanese have among the worst rates of English competency in the world and it handicaps them because they live in a Japanese bubble. For us, the internet is a community of billions of people. For the Japanese, it is a community of tens of millions. It makes it hard to work abroad and gain foreign friends.
Most of the people who read this comment will probably not have English as their first language. But very few of those will be Japanese.
For someone who has been involved in English education in Japan, there is no expectation that learners of English will actually be able to speak English at the end of it.
Every American ever, every time they go somewhere abroad.
good reason to not go in japan. dont tell us to learn that torture.
6:30 Japan isn’t the only country that gets this complaint. Back in 2019, I read a few stories about foreigners complaining about natives not speaking English in a country where the primary language is a different one.
I have no idea what the line of thinking is for people like that. They’re travelling to a country where the primary-spoken language is not English. What were they thinking?
it's more like venting about feeling useless. i felt that way before
You can honestly get by knowing just Spanish if you're in the US at this point. That's a phenomenon I've seen more often, probably caused by illegal immigrants?
Will... maybe that everybody in the world would speak at least a little of world-wide language?
@@OmarLivesUnderSpace No.
@@AdrenResi You can vent, but staying in your own useless country.
It's very rare to see good dark comedy in RUclips. Usually just light joke or some 'comedians' insulting people. Great job Meshida-san
he just discourage us to go in japan.
@@maegalroammis6020 its the opposite for me
@@maegalroammis6020 You should go. It's incredible.
@@smashingfables6307 nope. too expensive , too strict and people there are just creepy.
@@vijaz5559 why weeb?
"We japanese are not racist, just xenophobic" haha that got me
And true!
good way to diminish the number of foreigners in japan
Based
me too lol
You guys speak English very well
逆被上手
Yes, their English is very
" good " 😉... 😆😂Ha Ha!!!
As a weird white working class gaijin living in Japan with no friends in my own country ,this video was extremely accurate.
Are you doing better in Japan though 🇯🇵
@@LukasVokrinek little by little,yes.Learning the language first is essential,though.
It's no wonder - you can't even phrase a grammatical sentence
@@1ncognitusThat's good to hear. What kind of work are you doing there?
I already feel like you are Japanese.
I've had covid for three days now, watching this episode made me laugh so hard I had a coughing fit and nearly died. Worth it.
Get better soon. My mom had it last month and had it so bad. I turned into her caregiver for a week and a half.
That was -not- close -enough!-
Im in the same boat with covid, felt like death. This helped bring me back to life.
On the bright side, at least you didn't poop 💩 your pants 👖, 😆😂🤣
I'm an "upper-class" gaijin working at the Japanese branch of a famous foreign company. I love it and will never leave. Most of the people I see complaining about Japan came here because they felt disenfranchised in their own country then became obsessed with anime. When they realize that Japan isn't anime, they take their rage out on everyone else. I also think a lot of the world still has unconscious racism/xenophobia toward Japan, which makes them think overly harsh criticism of Japan is OK, but would see it as racist if the same type of criticism was give to other groups of people.
Agree that everything is wrapped in too much plastic though😂
I knew nothing about animé when I came to Japan, although I had seen Akira at some point. But I went as a teacher and love the country and am now an exec at a famous global company. But I always thank fuck that I'm not Japanese and have to put up with the shit that they do. You get a gaijin pass in Japan and be grateful for it.
i have no respect fopr the idiots who love working hard everyday who deals with fake people.
An English teacher complaining that their students can't speak English? That says more about the teacher than the student.
Japanese have hard lives because their entire focus is usually on meeting the expectations of others. I have seen men get married or stay in an unhappy marriage simply to advance their careers.
This was another good video.
I love this Japanese humor with facts thrown in lol
This video is pure gold. Sharp social commentary disguised within jokes. I was wrong in the past thinking you two were gaijin worshippers. Wish more Japanese see through white gaijins like you.
We're pretty easy to see through. Just go to the beach during summer. If you find a French-Canadian, you can use their bellybutton like a telescope.
😅 i loved this, but a lot of them were pretty facts I've learned after living here for 8 years. I actually switched my content to be more about learning Japanese because everything changes once you do, and those typical complaints disappear because you realize....you just didn't speak Japanese 😂😂😂😂
Foreigners also whine that Japanese don’t like their tattoos. Its because Japanese have less trashy taste. I hope to God it stays that way.
You had me peeing my pants with #9! Great work guys!! You make an awesome team :D P.S. You should invite "Abroad in Japan" on your show and roast him good. I feel like he's ripe material and would enjoy it.
No, I am sick to death of seeing that guy.
as a white Brit, I must say it is nice to see the Japanese carrying on the proud traditions of friendly racism and mockery of The Other by making jokes about daGaijin (or Johnny Foreigner as we used to like to say)
This is the best comedy I've seen come out of Japan. Excellent work Meshida-san!
I’m a white middle age English teacher living in Japan. I came Japan because my wife couldn’t adapt to my country and she was the one complaining about everything! She complained about the food, about the language, about the culture, etc. now we live in Japan and I only complain about one thing and that is the working culture. I have to work 9 hours every day including Saturdays and Sundays with no chance of a raise, promotion or extra hour payment. I love my parents in law. I love my Japanese friends( they can speak English) it is true that I don’t speak the language but that’s because I don’t have time to do it because of guess what….my Japanese job. This video is totally not accurate for me. However, I understand where he comes from. I can totally tell foreigners who live in Japan are typically weird, obsessed with anime and video games that includes my job mates. They are very very weird and it was funny to learn that even Japanese people realise it.
I have a wife and two kids, and a full time job plus a part time job, but I am able to squeeze in even just an hour a day of studying Japanese. You can do it too, mate. Take it step by step, learn the very basics and dont worry about not progressing fast enough. Learning Japanese is an incredibly rewarding experience. Good luck!
Not every person who plays video games, watches anime, etc. are weird
However, the new generation of Americans GEN Z and above are weird. Which is probably why the ones you encountered who like anime and video games are weird.
I find many “YOUNG” Americans weird. Guess who’s fault it is though? …….its the parents and American ideologies. liberals with blue hair and hard nipples sticking out dressed in weird clothing. Where are the parents to tell them NO??
You missed the biggest complaint from gaijin in Japan - NO SUBTITLES
This was extremely funny! Thank you both for your sense of humor, it really breaks up the dullness of the day. Ken-san kept me laughing the entire video OMG his Gaijin knowledge is impressive!! Great video keep them coming.
As a black women who has lived in Japan for almost 8 years now. Japan isn't racist. I get treated better here than in the USA. I wasn't even planning on living here for a long time. I was gonna go back to the US but not a lot of good things were happing. Especially to black women... So I didn't think it was safe for me to go back. Long story short, I met a really nice Japanese guy who I love very very much. Who told me to stay in Japan. And now here we are. I still don't really wanna go back to the US because I'm still a little scared and I'm too use to Japan already. Thanks for reading if you've made it this far. I just wanted to do a little checkpoint in my life so far. 💕🇯🇵
Except for not being black and not being a woman (hmmm . . . that's a lot of exceptions) I sort of understand your situation. I've been here for 9 years and would never go back to America. It has really gone from bad to worse in the last decade. For me, Japan is now home.
That's so wholesome. Happy for you, girl!
@@bagzhansadvakassov1093 First of all starting a sentence with " You people" when you know you're talking to person of color, is a horrible thing to do. People like you are the reason I moved out of the U.S. Because when black people ( especially black women) talk about our horrible experiences in the U.S, we get shut down by bigots like you. And people don't believe us. I hope you think about what you just wrote to me and regret it.
@@bagzhansadvakassov1093 You started of the sentence with " you people" and said " lol " when you were asking about a serious situation. Sorry if I hurt your feelings simply because you couldn't come up with an appropriate way to ask a question that could be very triggering to people. If you're confused ask a friend and they'll tell you what you did wrong and come back when you're ready to speak like an adult.
@@bagzhansadvakassov1093 I said comeback when you're ready to talk like an adult.
That was brutal! No filter. :) One of your best videos.
This is extremely good tier comedy... 😂👍 Good job
Johnny Sins, what is your profession?
Johnny Sins: Yes
Ken-san: Hold my sake
I love how Ken-san’s “Meshida-san, shut the fuck up!” gets more aggressive with each video 😂
Thank you guys, you may be comedians, but you give a clearer picture about how things are in Japan, once again thank you soo much
Wow, Some of the stuff you guys said, we can't even say it in US. You guys were being real honest and funny at the same time.
I have a lot of respect for the Japanese for standing up for their culture and language.
Informative and hilarious as ever, Meshida-Sensei and Ken-Sensei.
Honest comment from a US English-speaker: yes, your English is a bit odd in its phrasing and pronunciation. But your vocabulary is deep and your grammar is usually very good, both things that from-birth English speakers often find difficult.
I really like the character of Ken Suzuki, please always have a series with him. 5:50 is gold
No one is more entertaining and useful and funny at the same time
Than meshida and ken
More precise speaking of gaijin class
Upper-class : american , german , or another famous european.
Middle-class : middle-class from above countries.
Working-class : ASEAN (except singaporean).
I hope you will create skits with Lie chan playing a more main character as well.
For instance, in this particular piece, I feel she would have been perfect to act a snobissh gaijin role😀
Arigato! I'll do that!
Very funny! Especially the "we love them" regarding the koreans and chinese
For your answer to the complaints
#1 I agree
#2 I agree
#3 I would say it depends on the relationship whether it is a stranger, business, or perhaps a friend relationship you can still be nice and find a way to be honest
#4 this one also depends on the situation there is a phrase here in the US called pick your battles. Perhaps this is why there is a lot of cheating in Japan
#5 sad but true
#6 once again sad but true
#7 I think both results and seniority should be weighed if you go on simply one or the other you will have problems so they must be used as appropriate for the situation
#8 I agree plastic is useful however it also takes thousands of years to biodegrade only 10% of plastic gets recycled and can only be recycled once so I can see both sides
#9 very funny but in the US we are used to seeing garbage cans in kitchens, bathrooms, offices, and anywhere food or beverages are served. This is done for practical convenience
#10 I agree tipping should not be allowed just pay fair wages and have slightly higher prices this makes things easier and less awkward
It was very important and amusing to read such a -dead- serious reply to a comedy video 👍🏻
Thank you both; I haven't laughed this much in awhile.
I love how the burns and insults aren't discrimanatory -- everyone gets the insults!
You guys are WAY too underrated and need way more views. Love you both and hope you two keep up the SHITTY -- I mean... GOOD WORK!
I can't wait to visit Japan. I subscribed today! You have a very funny way of conveying information.
Thank you, very informative and raised my mood after shitty day. Have a great weekend guys!
The US has honne and tatemae too. "Why bless your little heart" in the south for example is usually a polite way to say "you're an idiot"
No it doesn't.
Loved it! One of the best I've seen so far
Great video, very funny!
I'm in stitches, wonderful set.
Now that I am living in Japan, I know that what are you guys saying is true xD Very funny
This humor is so weird I'm starting liking it. Keep it up, boys!
As a middle class gaijin in Japan, this was one of the funniest videos I’ve ever watched
The funniest duo in the World! Meshida and Ken Suzuki
The dynamic duo returns!
Amazing comedy! Keep up the great work guys 👏🏽
Enjoyed when Ken-san was laughing even while saying Meshida is not funny. 😂
Wow you guys are super funny. Thanks for the laugh. Amazing delivery gentlemen seriously. Deadpan comedy is funny in all cultures!
I have been in Japan for almost 8 years now and that was a really funny, and very relatable, video.
About #3, when Japanese people ask me what I find the most difficult to deal with living in Japan, they often preemptively suggest "ah, it must be honne/tatemae, right?". I usually smile and say that it is indeed very confusing for us foreigners. But in my heart, I'm thinking "that's the same everywhere in the world, do you really think people just blurt out whatever they're thinking without filter? Stop believing you're special, you Japanese snowflake."
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but can you enjoying natto?
they overabuse of theirt tatemae. that's wghy threy shouldn't got a good reputation in the world.
The thing with American and Australians is they are comfortable having layers of tatemae they slide between as a form of socializing play. Even people of widely disparate social castes and power dynamics do it. I've never seen that happen with Japanese unless it is behind the veil of a ton of alcohol.
I really enjoyed that, thanks!
"You guys speak English very well"
I totally busted out laughing after that western tatemae joke 😂😂😂
I love you, japan! It's okay, you don't need to love me back... 🙏
Hi! Nathan!
Thank you for super thanks!
I love people who give me super thanks!
So I love you too!!!
We japanese are not racist
Burakumin people : 🙄
Great, funny and entertaining content! Arigato gozaimasu!
I don't know how I found this cannel, but I'm so glad I did!
You guys speak English very well, but I'm Spanish, so I might not know.
This is one of your funniest videos yet! Keep it up!
This channel is a gold mine of Japanese culture and humor. Love Meshida-san and Ken-san.
In Britain there's a saying called 'bloody foreigners' who can be blamed anything that's going wrong in the country. Japan has bloody gaijins to blame 🤣
In regards to the public and private faces in Japanenese culture, it's very much the same in the West- the only difference is that we are dishonest about it. We pretend to be genuine with others at all times, then smack talk behind their backs. It is not harmony we seek, but self-ingratiation at others' expense. There is very little feeling of consideration to others.
I so needed to hear someone being honest about this lol
Love the jokes! Hilarious as heck and the roasting of gajin was incredible lol.
Ken Suzuki is the male Japanese Karen
Didn’t expect this , video was hilarious I was dying over here 😂
I love you guys for telling the truth🤗, you guys just nail it, the world need more politically incorrect people like you!! Keep up the good work!👍
Well done guys, another great video.
Really love the dark humor this channel has which I love
And I really love too how you both bring the manzai comedy to the other parts of the world too!
OMG ! The video sums up exactly how many Japanese people actually think but would never say out loud outside of trusted circles. OFC all of this is so much more subtle compared to the US or Europe that foreigners usually don't pick up on it (and good for them).Thanks for the laughs and the humility and talent it takes to make a skit about this !!!
Very happy that this showed up in my feed. And well done - making jokes in a foreign language that will appeal to a foreign audience is very challenging.
Ganbatte! Meshida-san is one of the best humor with intelligence! hope to go to Japan someday. Your avid fan from the Philippines! 🇵🇭💓
This was super funny and made me laugh multiple times. Good job
Amazing video again 😆😆😆😆 very accurate description of culture .. also funny sentences have been added so well..
I wait for your videos Mesida san..
This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a very long time! 🤣
This is amazing. I need more haha.
We appreciate all of your hard work and effort. Bless you.
"They are not racist, they are ethnicity critic!" paraphrasing Voxis Productions. XD
i luv this documentary chanel, greetings aus germany ❤
I laughed so hard, from this video. These two, gotta be among my favorite comedians. 😅😅😅😅 The Chikan report, was priceless!😊
Meshida san, can you make some videos about unsolved crime mysteries in Japan? I've read about some crazy ones.
I missed a bunch of vids, you guys are just too funny. Thanks again.
That a difficult thing you did right there ,good job.
あなた達のコメディが面白くて、いつもこういうことビデオを見つける時は笑っているを辞められないんだ😂😂😂
This style comedy was normal in the US until the 21st century. No one got angry about stuff like this before. Remember 'Tokyo Breakfast'? American people loved that, haha!
Most difficult thing about living in Japan is not having a Japanese name . All the websites, credit cards, banks, forms do not have enough space to write our name. My only complaint. Japan is for people with Japanese names. I love the Japanese and Japan .
I love the way your show talks about harsh realities in a cool manner ! 厳しい現実をクールに語るトーク、素晴らしいです。気に入っています。I subscribed to your channel !
I like how you burn everyone equally, including yourselves :,)
Beautiful.
And almost every time you two broke, I was laughing with you.
Sometimes these complaints/jokes can be said mean-spiritedly in other corners of the internet - you all nailed keeping it real, but funny, without being mean spirited. I need to check out all your other work now!
You folks are always seriously humorous when discussing key issues 🙄 👍 👏 🙇♂️
Haha, fecking hillarious! This episode kick ass funny. :D
Making jokes like this can indirectly reinforce harmful misperception as many Japanese are unfortunately have closed-off mindsets. We hope you will reflect on that critically.
こんな愉快なビデオが珍しくて、あまり見ることはないですよ。誰でも批判されるなんて面白すぎる。言ったことはほとんど生活に起きた事実ですが、皮肉のように面白く言ってましたよね、ありがとうございます。
Oh those people do that here in the US too. It’s so wonderful we thought we would share.
Dude I love that you brought your dad with you, Ken Suzuki is a funny Chinese guy.
Excellent. I need more of this.
It's funny because it's all true. 😂
The biggest complaint of any Gaijin is "It's not like my home country!" Well NO 💩.
"Upper class Gaijin come to Japan because their company says so, not for anime."
Yes!!! Middle class Gaijin all think other Gaijin are otaku!
🤣🤣🤣
Yes, back home is was "weird." I was a nobody. But here, everyone says "Joe! Your Japanese is so good!" I quite like it. 😅
Great video. Spot on!
This was totally savage humor....I love it! hahaha well done Meshida and Ken-san. I honestly never complained about how Japanese people call foreigners as Gaijin, I feel actually sad for all the Hafu who are called Gaijin or not considered as Japanese despite being bred and born in Japan. I already knew about xenophobia and plastic wraps, still very informative content. Please, don't let Japan become too westernized, I hear people complaining about racism and sexism in my country as well. They are just making a mountain out of a molehill to impose their "progressive" guilt-tripping ideologies. I almost fell for the BLM protests in Japan and that's something I will forever feel guilty about because I should know better when people try to scam others into false racism accusations. There is always room for improvements, westernization is not the right way though. Let the toxic culture stay where it came from.
If westernisation is measured by the presence of toxic culture, then the world has been fully westernised. Every place has its toxic culture but striving for basic human decency isn't part of it.
bruuuuuh, ken-san wake up and choose violence ☠️
*Drinks Monster, American gamer drink* 本音起動‼︎ People actually complain about honne/tatemae culture!? That’s ridiculous! I grew up in a racist culture and tatemae was highly beneficial to helping me desensitize/deprogram. It created an initial impression of politeness and friendliness, allowing me to engage with the Japanese people I met, and ultimately befriended. It allowed me to properly immerse myself in the Humanity of the people who helped me while I was struggling with mental illness; I could even argue that tatemae saved my life.
Tatemae culture is about accommodating each other and showing compassion; even when it sometimes rubs us the wrong way. A beautiful and beneficial lesson to us all.
Also, while the caffeine overdose induced honne effect remains, I see no reason you shouldn’t believe in my sincerity when I say, yes your English is good. You needn’t feel self-conscious about pronunciation because your speech is still understandable and we are understanding because our language has a large number of uncommon phonemes and phonotactics that differ considerably from those of the Japanese language. A language doesn’t earn the title Hardest Language for Second Language Speakers for nothing.
Tatemae culture for all!!!
