    I like this so much. I used "Baka Gaijin desu" at restaurant in Hiroshima. Restaurant staff were stunned initially, however they broke down with the most startling laughter I have ever heard. I broke through their insincere sincerity. To see a Japanese person let loose is a sight to behold. All restaurant staff lined up to bow and express salutations when I left. Most bizzare . Maybe they were telling me to "fuck off" however they were very nice about it.

    Ken-san seems to be an expert at saying, "No, it is not true!" In which of the following scenarios has he used this response?
    A. "Conductor-san, this oyaji pressed his small banana against my dress in the train!"
    B. "Policeman-san, he was taking photos of my pantsu under the stairs!"
    C: "Principal-san, Ken-sensei asked me to remove my clothes for art class!"
    D: "Judge-san, this baby was made by Ken-san and I can prove it!"
    E. All of the above.

    The most effective praise: “I have been to China and Korea, Japan is the best! “ hahaha thanks for letting us know Meshida San. I’ve learnt one more thing on how to communicate to the Japanese now! I did visit China and Korea, my honest opinion is that Japanese civilization, quality of service, politeness are really on a whole different level.

    People are so friendly and nice.

    All these advices are also applicable to your online relationships with the Japanese community and Japanese gamers.
    I play a lot of MMORPG in the Japanese servers, as many titles such as Dragon Quest and until recently Phantasy Star, never make it to the West.
    You would not believe how friendly and warm the Japanese community can be, and how accepting of you they can become, if you follow Meshida-sensei´s advice.
    Try to write in Japanese, even if you have to use basic sentences in rōmaji, or google translate, be humble and ready to praise those players who take interest in you, allow them to teach you Japanese, something they absolutely love to do, and thank them and act impressed even if you already knew some of the words, and do not be boastful if they praise you or encourage you.
    Before you know it, you will get plenty of friend requests, party invites, and even allowed to join groups and clans that usually do not accept foreginers.
    All they ask for, really, is that you respect the fact that you are a guest in their server, and they can be very gracious hosts if you are humble as their guest.

  • @feral_shade
    @feral_shade Год назад +3

    I was thinking about this recently...and I think the _type_ of praise is important too!
    To praise someone about an aspect of their culture that's a famous stereotype might seem superficial and insincere
    ...but to praise them about something ordinary and relatable might sound like you're really you're really interested...and that would leave a better impression I think. :)
    Also, Meshida...not everyone is as talented and funny as you!
    ...if I try to make people laugh, they always end up confused or annoyed instead 🤣

    I'm glad I was already on the right path. Also Kens scenes were really great in this. I just love that goof ball he has just a great way on making me laugh. I also wanted to say that I love your Pikachu shirt which I think we have it here from the Pokemon store site. But this was before I even met my girl I had a pride in both my country and yours. I just wish I could find a pin for my shirt that has both my flag and yours back to back. Which I'll also be honest with you but it's repeating myself I don't really care about Korean things and I've NEVER been a fan of China. However before I just looked at them as "well cares right?" but it wasn't until a a few years ago that I really started to hate them. But not so much South Koreans. See a few years ago my church had a South Korean girl with her living with the pastor of my church. She was a good kid and her real family wasn't too bad. So it's not all but I think you get what I mean.

    Just to add to those three phrases Meshida San mentioned saying "suimasen" - excuse me or I'm sorry helps a lot too. No if you must speak English speak in perfect "Engirishu" instead of saying, "eat lunch" say "iito lanchi" or "durinku wota" not "drink water" so just add a vowel after the English word and you're good to go.

    Been to Japan many times, from Kobe to Shuzenji and all the way to Wakanai. I've never had a bad experience. All the locals that I have met are really nice people.🥰 For example, a bookstore owner (a lady) in Kanda, Tokyo gave me an umbrella because it was raining outside. In Sendai, I asked, using very poor Japanese, a mother for direction to the Miyaki Museum of Arts, and it turned out that she drove me home, made me lunch, then drove me to the museum with her child. We had good time together. So I have to sort of disagree with you, Meshida san. Also, I have been to China and Korea, Japan indeed is the best. Of course it's only my personal experience. 🙂

    Dear Meshida-san,
    I'm happy and thrilled to be back watching your video for the first time in months (well, the prior was last January).
    As always, thank you for the inside information and to get to know Japanese personality and practice a little bit more.
    I have an aversion to "baka"
    /"stupid"/. But then I need to learn and be humble as well.
    Trivia: In the Philippines, "baka" means "cow" or "beef".
    Whether alive or deadmeat, it's still "baka" in Filipino.
    With sincerity and regardless of faith differences, I hope and pray Japanese people will grow population-wise.
    What's the point of prosperity and one of the best in Asia if there's no Japanese youth in the near future, right?
    Sorry, or gomenasai, for the litany.
    I'm looking forward to learn more from your features.
    Arigatou gosaimasu. ^^
