In Japan there are ton of convenience store brands also known as combini, but we all know the big three, 7-Eleven Japan, FamilyMart, and *Lawson*.
I've personally been a big fan of FamilyMart while my friend @SHUNchanjp LOVES 7-eleven. So, after months of debating off camera, we decided to put to the test which convenience store brand in Japan.

Imagine how shocked Shun would be at an American 7-11. They’re so different and worse than the Japanese ones.
Well it depends. While the USSM 7-11 branches are mostly notorious for various crimes and such, many in other jurisdictions don't fare well either, as in the case of my vicinity where the only connecting element is the staff, esp. the regular ones from where I visit every night. Everything else regarding that store branch, is another story......
I know I think QuickTrip is better in the US
can we maybe make a pact in which we all agree never to let Shun go to an American 7/11? He just needs to be protected from this dark truth...
The 7-11 food looks so good! The little cat dessert looked so cute. Where I am in the states they don't have prepared food, other than hot dogs/ pretzels/ muffins. They're really just for non-fresh foods, like bags of chips and cookies. If you want prepared food we have WaWa (North Eastern US thing)
Yooooo I've only lived in Japan for 1 month and I already decided 7-11 has the best food/snacks, Family has better selection of household products and Lawson is good at something! Their services like atm, printing, copying, document mailing, bill paying etc is their strong suit.
I got really psyched when you agreed about the 7-11 food I was like WHAT DID I SAY to my friend lolll
I hear everyone loves 7/11 there 😅
I guess? I can see why though now haha
7/11 in Japan compared to the states puts them to shame.
@@spazjester but we have slurpees XD
You should do another one of these with Lawson vs Family Mart!
That ending ND the onigiri and curry twists tho. I didn't see those coming 😂 great vid. Love the content. ♥️
Great vid, love seeing fun videos like this.
Thanks for watching! Im going to try to make more videos in the coming weeks
Lawson for brewed coffee! 7/11 for food! but i love Famichiki of Family Mart too! 🤗
Lawson coffee is actually good? Im gonna have to make Shunchan test it then haha
@@ShotasPOV yes! haha! 7/11 is also good but comes off too strong for me. Family Mart has a sour aftertaste to it. but Lawson has that rich, smooth flavor with the right amount of bitterness 🤗
These three guys should start a weekly podcast. Could call it Refuse Flavor.
Jessie thuggin' at 3:21 is a vibe
The funniest part of the whole video was shun being bewildered at the claim that mcdonalds is better than shackshack
Lmfaooo shunchan being totally done with my sarcasm haha
I think part of why the big three are so good is because they have to compete with each other. So I'm glad all three exist.
Lawson has the important service of printing concert tickets though, so...
Ahhhh true good point, i completely forgot about lawsons ticket service oops, ill make a follow up eventually and mention it
Nice upload man!👌🏽
Thanks for watching!!
7-11 for coffee. FamiMa for… chicken? But Lawson is still my favorite because they’re the only konbini that reliably stocks good beer.
When are we going to see the Lawsons?
I wondered when Jesse was gonna get to steal the show! Good that you guys did the blind tasting. Now go to Hokkaido and test Seiko Mart!
Oooo i definitely want to test it out, the "number 1 combini in Japan"... lets see if it lives up to the hype
I always thought 7-eleven looked better before going to Japan, but after a month I can wholeheartedly say familymart is alot better imo. I could live off their boneless chicken for the rest of my life.
Love these videos! Do all of you gangstas live in the same crib?
ベビーベッド
From March til August Jesse and Shunchan lived in the same house but the lease expired 😅
@@ShotasPOV Shunchan is hilarious 😂
before pandemic we travel to japan 1-2x a year for 5yrs. we both love 7-11 & family mart. THOUGH.. I MUST AGREE we prefer 7-11 during our stays there. the egg sandwich and onigiri we really like 😊
but for chiken we like the family mart. but coffee 7-11 is the best even better than starbucks!😁
I have been fully converted into a 7/11 enthusiast myself now 😂
I respect ur opinion but I think famimart onigiri and Famichiki is sooo good
I always preferred Lawson, their sandwiches are killer
I’m gonna have to try their sandwiches I’m hearing a lot of things about it
LAWSON MASTER RACE
Hahaha a Classic. Good job guys.
Great video, thanks
Thanks for watching!
chilled Bento , udon , steamed bun: 7-11
sweets, drinks: family mart
For me, wherever I can buy Mitsuya Cider. I absolutely love that drink and it sucks I can’t get it outside of Japan.
The love for 7-11 is real.
How you been shotas
I've been super busy but I'm doing my best to get more videos out! Hope things are good for you too, thanks for watching!
@@ShotasPOV thanks mines been sad tiktok trying to find a way to banned kinda sad I might lose all my 126k followers who’s been with me for 3 years
I’m here for Shun 🎉
Shin-chan is so funny. "The rice actually tastes like rice." Lol
めっちゃ面白かったです！
ありがとう！
I’m cracking up that “masks are still required in Japan” was immediately followed with them eating bites of the same sandwich, same section even, which would clearly put one more at risk of sharing illness. 😂😷 This was a great vid! I love 7-11 simply for the Slurpees (USA). I wish they had them where I live now.
Eating and drinking on the same side is like an indirect kiss.
🤣🤣🤣
Lmaoooo true true…… wow I miss 7/11 US slurpees 😭😭
I noticed the same thing lol. They could've used different spoons for the curry too. Great content none the less. Keep up the great work guys 😉
@@ShotasPOV Pink lemonade was always my fave Slurpee flavor, how about you? 😋🥤
Coffee drinkers unite! Shun is right, drinking coffee for a while you can start tasting the subtle differences and the flavors. You can even taste if the coffee is stale or if it is freshly brewed, and with enough time you can even start to tell which region of the world the beans originated from. I lived in Iwakuni for 2 years comparing the ones near my apartment, I can say that 7-Eleven has the better food, but Family Mart had the better beer selection lol.
I’ll have to start drinking more coffee then so I can appreciate the differences haha
Shota, I gave you a shout out in Oriental Pearl's video from 11 days ago featuring Jessie. I saw you for 2 seconds. Good video with Shun. 🙋🏻♂️🇺🇸🤝🇯🇵
Ayyyy thank you haha, yup i was with them that day and made that split second cameo in the back 😂😂
Fun video. Informative.
Japanese know how to do convenience store food.
The only consistent with Japanese 7-11 and American 7-11 is the coffee is better than it should be.
You're likely to find a burrito from years ago in an American 7-11.
When I was in Tokyo, Family Mart was the go-to.
Lawson is the convenience store underdog
Lawson sandwiches are the best!
I need to try it!!
As an afterthought, I think these three can make a better, real-life rendition of "Convenience Story" (no pun intended)......
So maybe Shota and Shun can think of concocting more vid episides on the JDM conbini culture and all the interesting happenings around these premises etc. etc......
I’m definitely thinking about integrating more JDM/car videos on my channel since I’m a huge car guy myself but I don’t have a license/car in japan yet 😭😭
Lawsons any day of the week.
well usually the konbini's I go to are either very limited or look like they've recently been robbed, so I never had the luxury of seeing all those meals and desserts unless I'm visiting a supermarket.
😭😭😭
I think they both had basic item same but each neighborhood has different taste custom to them base on supply from local vendor but on logistically they both owned by same corporation
I love both but I love famichiki
Shout out to the Lawson egg salad sandwich.
I need to try it out heard some good things about Lawson sandwiches
I'm a foreigner and I visited your country last year to me lawson's and FM seemed about the same. I didn't see as many 7/11 as the formers. But from what I do remember from 7/11 their books were sealed. Side note: I'm sure this comment will be a 'hot take' and get me flamed but MOS burger was garbage however 'freshness burger was god-tier I had it twice once outside of Kyoto and again at either Shin-Osaka or Osaka station I forget which one. But again a 5/5 burger joint.
Depends on what you use them for.
・Famima has Famichiki, awesome seasonal Frappe, best tuna mayo makizushi (or whatever you call tube long uncut makizushi. I usually prefer them much more over onigiri since it has the filling all along its length) and some seasonal sweets like mini pound cake or financiers (matcha, lemon, banana flavored). But Famima wifi sucks the most (20min sessions only 3 times a day). Also Famima sarada chicken is the most expensive but not tasty. Good thing is that in case it has a table inside there will be an outlet to charge your phone for free.
・7/11 has the best unlimited wifi (used to download whole TV shows and Switch games on it) and the best sarada chicken. Occasionally has my fav matcha soft cookie. Sometimes has my favorite macaron ice cream but it disappears FAST. Good bottled tea variety. Often has "eat-in" aka table inside to sit. Has tasty fried sasami (chicken tender) but their regular fried chicken is bland and oily. 7/11s are usually more spacious than other kombinis but feels like it's kinda empty and has less goods in comparison.
・Lawson has cheap good eggs, macarons and dorayaki, macadamia nuts. But ice cream and deserts are usually meh. Lawson barely has all the new チロルチョコ flavors. Recently saw more and more Lawsons updating their copiers to newer touch screens so its not as pain to use. And you can finally scan and save documents directly on your phone without bringing a USB drive. But I hate that Lawson often doesn't have automatic doors and their toilets are tend to be dirty.
・MiniStop has its own made seasonal ice cream. But they are so rare here in Osaka that I don't even bother going. The nearest from me is 2km away.
・Daily Yamazaki sells small Baskin Robbins for those times when you're sick of seeing Häagen-Dazs and Godiva everywhere. But these kombini are usually very small and under-equipped, so going to the toilet there is more claustrophobic than the one on a plane. Also very rare in Osaka, only seen once or twice, and it's easier to just find a Baskin Robbins stand instead.
this is comprehensive info. I love it.
Wow love the comprehensive info, I rarely see mini stops but I have one close to my place so I’ll go check it out. Meanwhile I still haven’t come across a daily Yamazaki 😭😭
Japan's 7-Eleven 🥺
Lawson.
I love Japanese 7/11 too, 7/11 is the best
When i went to japan. I usually go to lawson lols. But then again i rarely eat their own brand foods.
Idk why but I just can’t call myself a Lawson guy
I love Natural Lawson most
Natural Lawson slaps
Guy in the store wears Drew shirt i subcribed him
A nice cameo by Jesse haha
7/11 for me. I lived in Okinawa for a bit and they didnt have 7/11s so family mart is absolutely the runner up.
I thanks them both because they help me get what i need to survive but seven eleven has gasoline and less likly win in small country but win more in the u.s.a
Funny because 7-11 in my country Sweden is so underwhelming. Looks amazing in Japan
Why are American and Canadian 711s the absolute worst lol
Lawson had muji sweeties and unsweetened coffee that didn't taste like sheet, and best taiyaki, so...
It's a pity Circle-K had left the JDM otherwise the comparo test would've been more fierce......
In my opinion, Family Mart has much better food and snacks, especially their chicken omg I'm craving it right now
Such an obvious difference between a regular Japanese and an Americanized Japanese. lol
It's unfortunate that your shorts get more reach because I like these long videos more. It's a given tho because shorts are more accessible
Ikr, according to the analytics RUclips pretty much doesn’t push my long
Videos on any recommended tabs as a recommended video 🥲🥲🥲
My goodness 7-11 won by a LANDSLIDE...
Share markets better than compete share by percent o f the neighbourhood and should address 50% local neighbors needs and 50% on the road people
7-11 is the best for food and Lawson for toys
Definitely Famima.💙💚 Lovelovelove Famima, don't like 7/11 at all. 7/11 has one yuzu drink (square bottle) that we buy, but would never buy their foods. Famima ftw 💪
Ayyyy team famima
Familymart all day
FAMIMAが簡単に一番。その食事はどこでも入ったらレストランのような美味しさを頼れるよ
Family-Mart is easily the best. Walk into any one of their locations and you can count on restaurant-quality food for a fair price.
That’s so interesting because Shunchan thinks 7/11 has the restaurant quality food
Wawa>>>
7/11 cuz of the variety. Family Mart is a Japanese startup I'm guessing
I think familymart is a bit bigger than a start up looool
What if 7/11 and Family Mart did a DBZ style fusion and merged?
bruh that would be the biggest plot twist in Japan's history if they did that... idk if i can accept that lmaoooo
Yup 7/11 onigiri is tha best
been almost 5 weeks in Japan now and as a tourist 7/11 is definitely the best one. their ATMs always accept international cards, Lawson never and Family Mart sometimes.
Lawsons chicken nuggets are best though 😊
What about lawson tho?
Meh.
Meh
Hahaha one bases on the number of stores whilst one bases on quality not quantity (or likes to go against trends)
They got so heated and I get why so much I love 7 eleven the onigiri are the best ngl
Honestly I still Goto Familymart 😅 the blind test had to be rigged
@@ShotasPOV lmao
🎉
Lawson is best girl.
I love Japanese things but he makes a good point. It does seem a little gloomy in famima
It’s interesting bc other familymart stores feel brighter tho 🤣🤣🤣
I miss Asian 7/11
I had no idea that 711 was Japanese wtf
Dude really said McDonald's is better than Shake Shack 🤦🏽♂
I am a familymart guy
Same….. I still can’t accept that 7/11 won our blind test
@@ShotasPOV I think it was a setup

💥かっちゃん💥
💥大•爆•殺•神•ダイナマイト🥇💥
💣🧨💥みんああああ!💢💥
かっちゃん とよんで💢💥 ありがとおおお! 💢💥
When 7/11 getx exported/franchised to other countries the quality drops drastically as well depending on the franchisee and where it's deployed.
🪙🪙
Edit-
*Lawson has entered chat*
😂
When I was in Tokyo, Family Mart was the go-to.
