It is because you are not learning because school tells you to, but only you were interested that you start to learn, schools do not seem to realize this.
It is such a genius idea to have the different ages showed in a parade, I really hope every country can learn from Japan to promote their history and culture like how Japan does here! Great respect from China! ❤️
Us Japanese would wholeheartedly want to thank China for influencing us with your great culture. China is the big brother and a teacher of East Asia. I hope the two countries will have peace sooner.

It's so beautiful to see that a city holds a festival like this, considering all the periods of the land's history. I would like to see those likewise beautiful processions in Germany.
Kyoto is an incredible city that's full of history, despite having a very western city grid style. You can't go far without seeing a shrine, temple, or other piece of history that's centuries old.
I thought the same, but I don't think we have such a rich history as Kyoto or Japan at all. But maybe I think that because we don't have this great processions.
Well... Germany has a big History with a lot of innovations point and also bad changes for the history of Europe. Not only the 2 world wars. Way back we had also a bright Culture in literature and Music and way back we was the proudest Germanen/Vikings/Nordic folks with strong men and worshipped strong gods. So I think it could be possible to do that but it would take way more time to do, because of the richness in History that we have ^^
@@CarbonatedTurtle "Western city grid"...? Honey, Kyoto was built copying the city grid of Chang'an (now Xi'an), the ancient capital of Tang China (618-907). The basis of Kyoto is pretty much a classical CHINESE city grid style.
It took me a long time to get through this video because I kept stopping and looking up the legendary people who were represented. Very well done. Thank you so very much.
I love how Japan is protecting and showing to the world its rich history and culture.... I wish my country was like that too....love Japan from Nepal🇳🇵 🇯🇵
there's tons of time travellers in here. some characters in this video are placed at the wrong timeline, such as Yodogimi (Toyotomi Hideoyshi's wife), this vid puts her in the Yoshino period, which is like 300 years before she was born.
I miss living in Kyoto. Of all the cities I lived in, save for my birth city and maybe equally, Kyoto runs deep in my heart and memory. I have beautiful memories of Matsuris across the city. It etched indelible memories I will cherish until the end of my life. Kyoto made me understood why people would want to reincarnate. This city is simply magical.
What a fine way to present glimpses of the Japan's History. Thanks to this video I got some idea about the rich and complex History of Japan. I enjoyed this video very much
I think it’s beautiful to see countries carry on their traditions we do in the uk it’s important for countries to always remember their history and keep their traditions ❤
amazing my fav Tokiwa Gozen "A noblewoman and tragic heroine who became the concubine of her husband's enemy to spare the lives of her children, who took revenge once fully grown."
I traveled to Japan in 2018 and spent a week in Tokyo, the most amazing experience of my life! the wonderfully nice people, the food, the shopping, the modern and ancient right beside each other! I'm going back to explore more of Japan.
That a city stages a celebration like this, taking into account all of the many eras of the country's history, is quite breathtaking. I think it is a brilliant concept to have the various centuries represented in a parade, and I hope that every nation may learn from Japan about how to promote their own history and culture in the same way that Japan does here.
Here in the Texas The Japanese do have wonderful ceremonies of culture!!! I love the drums!!!I bet, Brazil and the rest of S. America where the population is slightly larger the ceremonies are fabulous!!! Salute to JAPAN ❤❤❤❤
Wow, I saw this festival in 2008. It was amazingly beautiful. The costumes were gorgeous and the parade a real cultural feast. My Japanese penpal since 1971 and her family took us to this festival. An English teacher I had back in 1971 had asked our class one day if we wanted a penpal from Japan, and if we did put our name and address on a list that was going around the class. We also had to pay for the stamp. I might be the only one from my class still writing my penpal and I've been to Japan 3 times now. I've been taking Japanese (now online with my Japanese class since the pandemic.) The 20-30 year old students in my class are amazing students and it gives me a lot of hope for the future knowing them. I can hardly wait to get back. Thanks for posting this beautiful festival. I love Japan!
One of the most amazing things about countries that are as old as Japan is that you get to have all of these insane periods of fashion and style, luckily diligent record was kept through artwork poetry and otherwise, enough so that we can seemingly go back in time .......
Yes, Japan is astounding in the fact that it was never colonized or heavily invaded due to it being an island (like Britain). Just imagine how many other cultures we could appreciate in the same way if not for war and invasion destroying so many lost civilizations.....
Im stunned by the beauty and elegance of the poets from those times. As a writer, I can say it takes a lot to create literary art during dire and un-certain times. 7-16-2020

one thing i like about japan is that they preserve a lot of traditions and craftsmanships. unlike some other asian nations, demolishing everything to become "modern".
South Korea for example they have turned into Americans . Japan is a great example of how to maintain a balance between modernity and tradition . There is Tokyo that's so modern and developed. But there is also Kyoto which is like the cultural capital with all traditional wooden houses , beautiful narrow roads . People with traditional outfits and its all so well maintained
@@jyotiradityachoudhury7987 Japan has been around for over 2000 years. But other Asian countries are just emerging countries that were created after World War II. Comparing Japan to other countries is like comparing fancy restaurants to instant food.
Wow this really takes you back in time. The outfits and music are absolutely amazing. I would've liked to see how Japan looked before the Meiji Restoration. Japan should be proud for actively remembering their history and culture.
The dramatic vibes from the slowmo effect + backsound. It feels like you are taking us back to that era witnessing the real parade. So graceful. Thank you for this excellent video 👏👏
This is so cool!! Here in the US we hold Renaissance fairs and festivals, some which last for weeks, and the experience for many who visit can be almost spiritual in ways. Remembering and honoring our ancestors is a precious tradition, and I thank you Japan, for infusing these principles throughout your culture, and in all you do. VIdeo games have so much of the ancestral spirit of japan flowing through them, it's hard not to notice and cultivate respect. Much love to you Japan, from NE Washington USA.
This is so amazing. I'll have to watch again and pause it. I have never seen the likes of it anywhere, such an ambitious performance, to represent thousands of years of history and knowing Japan, it is as accurate as they could make it, including the materials used.
I have such a GREAT affinity for the Japanese and there culture. I would just LOVE to attend this festival and see it it person. Such rich history, and artistry put on display to pay respect and honor there culture. Simply wonderful.
Beautiful costumes... beautiful arrangement of the whole ceremony.Great respect and admiration for culture and custom 🇯🇵👏 Greetings and respect from 🇵🇱 🕊️ Sonkei suru 🇯🇵👏🕊️
Poland is well known to Japanese people as the friendliest country to Japan in Europe. The Japanese saving Polish orphans stranded in Siberia is well known here 😃
I like how each family/group has their own crest, u can recognize them by the design on their hats and flags. The two that i always remember is the nobunaga and hideyoshi crest
Well, that was a very nice little history lesson. What beautiful costumes! If I ever get the chance to travel to Japan, the first place I want to see is Kyoto. It looks like it is a very lovely city.

it was incredible and breathtaking to watch, even through the lens of camera. Now I have new goal - to visit Kyoto festival as soon as I can. I liked Japanese culture, but this made me want to study it in more detail and I think I appreciate it 1000 times more
This genuinely took me an hour to watch, as I kept pausing to admire not just the outfits being worn, but the equipment and instruments being carried and played as well. EDIT: I'm from the United Kingdom, and I don't think we have anything anywhere near this. I know in Scotland, they celebrate their history, I remember the sword and axe fights, cabar tossing, traditional foods, but never anything like this. There's so much respect for tradition, and people, not only are the male figures from history brought in, but female figures as well, which isn't done a lot in traditional celebrations.
I don't understand the culture, pretty much night and day with my mexican culture, however... The fabrics and textiles are out of these world, I'm in love
Wow, what a fascinating video, what a long amazing history Japan has, the costumes are really great ,such detail ,thanks for posting it and thanks for the English titles .
This is one of my all-time favourite videos available online. Thank you so, so much to not only the parade participants but the people responsible for the text and filming of this video. Outstanding. Thank you.
En este desfile todos los trages son magicos .. no hay uno mejor que otro .. Incluso el que simboliza un servidor es tam mágico como el del su lider o superior
This video is an excellent reminder of Japan's History. The Tale of Ganji is one of the greatest love novels in Japanese literature. I read it twice: once in French and once in English. So captivating. Kyoto est l’une des plus jolie ville du Japon, très touristique aussi. Le jour où je visiterais le Japon (probablement l’an prochain), je visiterai en premier Hokkaido, puis Kyoto, en suit les autres villes….. Bientôt une Nouvelle ère au «pays du soleil levant ». En effet, le japon va bientôt changer d’ère. Actuellement les nippons sont dans l’année 30 de l’ère Heisei, soit la 30e année du règne de l’empereur Akihito. Il avait annoncé à la Télé, fait rare et exceptionnel, son désir d’abdiquer fin avril 2019, alors, l’archipel changera d’époque. Entre 1926 et 1989 ce fut l’ère Showa, jusqu’à la mort de l’empereur Hirohito. Avec l’avènement de l’empereur actuel ils ont inauguré l’ère Heisei……. Il va falloir attendre l’arrivée de nouvel empereur, Naruhito, avec sa jeune et jolie épouse Masako Owada, pour connaître le nom de la nouvelle ère nipponaise. Vive l’empereur, long live the emperor 長い皇帝に生きる
4:22 出雲阿国がカッコよすぎる 出雲阿国（Izumo no Okuni ）was a woman active during Japan's Heian period, who is believed to have influenced popular and aristocratic cultures through her performances of dance and entertainment. She is known for initiating 'sarugaku', a form of theatre that significantly contributed to the development of Noh, a traditional Japanese theatrical form. Though details of her life remain unclear, it is generally thought that she was active between the late 10th and early 11th centuries. Her artistic influence continues to impact Japanese culture, particularly in the development of Noh.
That's basically history for everyone really, once you start digging into other cultures histories, you will find none to be innocent or hasn't done something wrong
Oh man. It's an awesome idea when Japanese has this festival as tradition. A great way to demonstrate the culture, historical events, civilization through ages. -____- I wish my country could restore the clothes culture, weapons, historical figures in different timelines like Japanese did. This is a good way to demonstrate the history events and maintain the history value. I feel Vietnamese hold the history event by separating and putting it into different regions, each region has different histories and cultures and It is really hard for people to see it in complete picture, because it's lack of connection, and discrete, wish they could do the same as Japanese. Making it a whole by doing a big festival, so that it would be easier for common people to access. Great job Japan!
@@discoverkyoto I went to Kyoto last year, but didn't have the chance to witness this, I must go another time. The Japanese way of preserving their culture and history is wayyyy better than that of us, China. We really need to learn from Japan in this.
Oh I am feeling so called to visit... and if I am meant to, then the path there will avail itself. I LOVE watching videos from folks in Japan taking ferries, trains, and visiting shrines and temples. As an American, I'm intrigued with Japanese cuisine, the many interesting items in vending machines, and the traditional Japanese architecture. The more remote parts of Japan would be nice to experience, which is when I come to visit... I'll happily take sleeper train and enjoy the countryside views. Happy to have found this channel.
ikr! When Nobunaga came I felt goosebumps! Ive always seen his name in manga and anime and whenever I read Japanese history, he's really famous and seems like an amazing person with what he accomplished!

i am happy that i could recognize so many characters right away. when i saw tomoe gozen, it was breath taking!
it was incredible and breathtaking to watch, even through the lens of camera. Now I have new goal - to visit Kyoto festival as soon as I can.
I liked Japanese culture, but this made me want to study it in more detail and I think I appreciate it 1000 times more
This genuinely took me an hour to watch, as I kept pausing to admire not just the outfits being worn, but the equipment and instruments being carried and played as well.
EDIT: I'm from the United Kingdom, and I don't think we have anything anywhere near this. I know in Scotland, they celebrate their history, I remember the sword and axe fights, cabar tossing, traditional foods, but never anything like this. There's so much respect for tradition, and people, not only are the male figures from history brought in, but female figures as well, which isn't done a lot in traditional celebrations.
I don't understand the culture, pretty much night and day with my mexican culture, however... The fabrics and textiles are out of these world, I'm in love
as a mexican, it would be cool to be able to dress as a samurai as part of culture instead of being labeled as a weaboo
@@DonGarcia11 As opposed to dressing as a Mexican drug salesperson?
@@DonGarcia11 Samurai visited Mexico when it was part of New Spain in the 1300's
@@someduder5044 I was thinking more like an aztec but as you may know, there is not a lot of clothing on that costume
También me fascinaron los atuendos, adornos, telas, todo!
Estaba intentando hacer memoria si aquí en México hacen algo similar? S:
Japanese imperial age was basically an anime world, those clothes are so detailed...from Philippines with respect...cheers.
Richard Franco thank you! I love the Philippine 😳🇯🇵🇵🇭💗
Very calm, peaceful parade. Thank you for bringing this to my computer screen.
Wow, what a fascinating video, what a long amazing history Japan has, the costumes are really great ,such detail ,thanks for posting it and thanks for the English titles .
Absolutely beautiful historical procession...the costumes are superb! Thank you.
me encantaría que tuviese subs en español tuve que traducir todo lo que decía, no hay duda que Japón tiene una de las culturas mas ricas
10:11 female samurai!!✨
She is an active geiko by the name of Toshimana from the Miyagawa-cho district.
yeah they should make a movie or anime out of her
have they really existed?
"performed more deeds then any of his warriors" 🤔😉
She's the prettiest, I thought.
巴御前の美しさに心を奪われました。雅なお祭りですね。
This is one of my all-time favourite videos available online. Thank you so, so much to not only the parade participants but the people responsible for the text and filming of this video. Outstanding. Thank you.
Thank you!
Hope can visit Kyoto next Spring 🥰
I love it how you explain everything in detail!
What a wonderful way to introduce the history to the young 💝💖💗💓💞💕💟❣💔❤🧡
Every classroom in the vicinity should be here.
ステキね。ずつと続けてほしいね
En este desfile todos los trages son magicos .. no hay uno mejor que otro ..
Incluso el que simboliza un servidor es tam mágico como el del su lider o superior
that was really cool, i love archery so that whole period of the archers was facinating
it is really cool to see all those outfits and how they changed... from straw hats to kimonos
Beautiful accoutrement reflecting a beautiful culture and people. Love Japan ✨
Thank you so much❤
Wow.... this is how you remember, retain and teach history.
This video is an excellent reminder of Japan's History. The Tale of Ganji is one of the greatest love novels in Japanese literature.
I read it twice: once in French and once in English. So captivating.
Kyoto est l’une des plus jolie ville du Japon, très touristique aussi.
Le jour où je visiterais le Japon (probablement l’an prochain), je visiterai en premier Hokkaido, puis Kyoto, en suit les autres villes…..
Bientôt une Nouvelle ère au «pays du soleil levant ».
En effet, le japon va bientôt changer d’ère.
Actuellement les nippons sont dans l’année 30 de l’ère Heisei, soit la 30e année du règne de l’empereur Akihito.
Il avait annoncé à la Télé, fait rare et exceptionnel, son désir d’abdiquer fin avril 2019, alors, l’archipel changera d’époque.
Entre 1926 et 1989 ce fut l’ère Showa, jusqu’à la mort de l’empereur Hirohito.
Avec l’avènement de l’empereur actuel ils ont inauguré l’ère Heisei…….
Il va falloir attendre l’arrivée de nouvel empereur, Naruhito, avec sa jeune et jolie épouse Masako Owada, pour connaître le nom de la nouvelle ère nipponaise.
Vive l’empereur, long live the emperor
長い皇帝に生きる
I like Japan culture so much ^^!
Technology mix with Old cultures perfectly.
5 * * * * * One of the best videos, that I have seen on RUclips. So much history in a short space of time.
4:22 出雲阿国がカッコよすぎる
出雲阿国（Izumo no Okuni ）was a woman active during Japan's Heian period, who is believed to have influenced popular and aristocratic cultures through her performances of dance and entertainment. She is known for initiating 'sarugaku', a form of theatre that significantly contributed to the development of Noh, a traditional Japanese theatrical form. Though details of her life remain unclear, it is generally thought that she was active between the late 10th and early 11th centuries. Her artistic influence continues to impact Japanese culture, particularly in the development of Noh.
Izumo no Okuni lived in the late 16th Century to early 17th Century
Incredibly beautiful and instructional. Truly inspiring. Thanks for that.
Japan history is so good. I know other part of their history is not good. But, nobody's perfect. So yeah...
That's basically history for everyone really, once you start digging into other cultures histories, you will find none to be innocent or hasn't done something wrong
They're all so beautiful and everything is so accurate! I definitely need to see this in person before I die
Oh man. It's an awesome idea when Japanese has this festival as tradition. A great way to demonstrate the culture, historical events, civilization through ages. -____- I wish my country could restore the clothes culture, weapons, historical figures in different timelines like Japanese did. This is a good way to demonstrate the history events and maintain the history value. I feel Vietnamese hold the history event by separating and putting it into different regions, each region has different histories and cultures and It is really hard for people to see it in complete picture, because it's lack of connection, and discrete, wish they could do the same as Japanese. Making it a whole by doing a big festival, so that it would be easier for common people to access. Great job Japan!
Wow! Incredible Japan. I would love to visit once!!
Thank you! Please come.
@@discoverkyoto I went to Kyoto last year, but didn't have the chance to witness this, I must go another time.
The Japanese way of preserving their culture and history is wayyyy better than that of us, China. We really need to learn from Japan in this.
I'm going once n never leaving
@@marcoswang5034 why do you have a western name for a Chinese?
Oh I am feeling so called to visit... and if I am meant to, then the path there will avail itself. I LOVE watching videos from folks in Japan taking ferries, trains, and visiting shrines and temples. As an American, I'm intrigued with Japanese cuisine, the many interesting items in vending machines, and the traditional Japanese architecture. The more remote parts of Japan would be nice to experience, which is when I come to visit... I'll happily take sleeper train and enjoy the countryside views. Happy to have found this channel.
Japan's history and culture is the most interesting history and culture that i discovered. I want to go there someday
5:15 why do I hear boss music
ikr! When Nobunaga came I felt goosebumps! Ive always seen his name in manga and anime and whenever I read Japanese history, he's really famous and seems like an amazing person with what he accomplished!
I'm pretty sure when Nobunaga shows up the boss is the one who hears boss music.
Everyone gangsta until Nobunaga shows up
Budou Murasaki I love that omg 😂
Sans is on the right
It goes by too fast! I could have watched this at a snail’s pace, and still would feel I missed too much, everything is so beautiful!

阿国姐さん！！！！かっけぇっす！！！！
カッコイイですよねー！そして隣の英語の解説文もおぞましくカッコイイですよ
A shrine maiden who pioneered the dramatic theatre style now known as kabuki.
Based in Kyoto, she performed folk songs and more bawdy plays with her troupe of women and outcasts.
今日、歌舞伎として知られるドラマチックな演劇スタイルの先駆者である巫女。
京都を拠点に彼女は民謡を演奏し、
女性たちと流浪人たちで構成される彼女の劇団は風変わりな演劇を行った。

I dont know what this comment says. What I do know, is that Izumo No Okuni be lookin like a bad bitch
@@Hollowwsstory lmao
服饰完美的还原那个时代，所有的人都很入戏。好精彩的游行表演。很棒的视频。
This was so beautiful and informative! Thank you so much for sharing.
My favourite is 4:21, Izumo no Okuni, great story.
12:14 I knew the early japanese invented Converse Shoes!
Nam Plaa Angry Joer lmao
:o
Lol😂🤣
XD
I love Japan and their beautiful culture 🇯🇵🎌😍❤️
Yayy.. I mean, it's blood soaked and still misogynistic but.. Yaayy..
@@sabiantheomnivore5592 I don't see anything blood-soaked in this video and the events in this video also have nothing to do with misogynistic so your point is invalid.If you hate Japan it is better not to watch any video related to Japan.
Sugoi ne....😍😍😍 I loved japan history...
