    I'm gonna say this here cause I already know people are gonna start spreading bullshit:
    I loved living in Japan, it was everything i expected it to be and I will go back for small vacations often! Going to school there was SO fun and I made some great friends and went on some educational and beautiful trips. I NEVER expected Japan to be a "kawaii magic weaboo land", that is assumptions my anti's made. Everyone that said I would get a "wake up call" and that japan "wouldn't live up to my unrealistic expectations" was wrong. It was all that i hoped it would be. Truly felt like home! What i did not enjoy was the entertainment visa. And that has nothing to do with Japan as a country, rather being treated badly and taken advantage of from an agency. I planned to stay a year, i did that, i loved it, I am so happy I got to experience it. Don't make assumptions and spread false infooooooo xxxxxxx

      I am not trying to be mean or anything like that. If you feel like clarifying, that would be cool. But you don't owe me anything:
      You say you loved Japan&made friends, however your (almost) daily posts on Instagram stories suggested otherwise. You often spoke of being lonely. From fall into winter, you posted about being anxious&depressed. Not just memes, but you actually wrote that that's how you felt. Many fans were actually worried about your mental health due to how frequently you posted this. You said you wouldn't miss the "over strict" culture of Japan (you're entitled to your opinion. I lived in Japan and I personally disagree with this statement that the culture is too strict) which implies a negative experience. Did you truly have an amazing experience? Or do you feel the need to say this because of your antis?

    I had a negative interaction with you after making the most innocent comment on your Instagram and you simply disagreed with my opinion and I finally saw the side of you I had been defending against all your "haters." You aggressively come off as very deep and rounded, but you have one side and one color that is very shallow. I'm not saying to take all the hate to heart, but now I understand some of it. You don't deserve a huge fan base at all and there is a reason you've lost a lot of it. Take care of yourself and humble yourself. Good luck, Kenna

    • @kho5254
      @kho5254 4 года назад +53

      I'm not going to share what was said because I don't want certain people who watch her to identify me by the incident and come after me on the web. I did not make this comment to be mean, so I'm sorry if that is the way it is being falsely portrayed. Wasnt the intention. I wanted Kenna to genuinely understand that her attitude and seemingly the pedestal she places herself on in comparison to how she views her supporters isn't a healthy fan/influencer relationship and due to what was said I no longer felt comfortable supporting her. And I had finally come to understand some of the things people had been saying about her, which I had never initially believed, as you SHOULDN'T because people always spread hate whether it's true or false. But now that I had my own similar interaction with her it was hard to want to support. Thats all guys, and I stand by my opinion that she needs to hear it if she wants to be a positive person in the influencer community. Thanks

    I started watching you during the time when you were receiving a lot of criticism. I think you've grown so much and you have opened up more of your personality to the camera.

      Curious why you kept watching, if you don’t mind me asking. She seemed pretty darn right vile then. I can’t help but think it’s because your young and don’t have that… I don’t know what to call it. I think young people give people too many chances. Not saying she didn’t deserve a second chance, I just don’t like poor behavior and how she acted back in her toxic days… oof, I never acted that way in my late teens (I have no idea how old she is tbh) I never watched her, I just heard about her from a lot of drama channels and I decided to pop in to see if she’s still awful.

      @@user-gu5xx5le2j Your claim that you dont watch her videos shows how easily influenced you are from drama channels and how you allow those channels to choose how you feel about people without even knowing them. She never was an "awful" person and she never will be. Her "poor behavior" was simply small mistakes she's made here and there just as you probably make mistakes in life as well. I think you should find a hobby other than letting drama channels think for you and then waste your time stalking kenna and leaving hateful comments.

      Although I think my respond is lost on you, I really don’t expect you to response in the same manner. :(

Yall are desperate as HELL to find things to criticize, lmao!!!! Please don't pretend like the same thing couldn't happen to you or literally anyone who tries to go live abroad for a year. That shit's HARD, especially the first time. NO ONE I know (which is a damn lot of people) who went abroad for a year aquired the language on a fluent or even conversational level. That shit takes years. It takes a very special, gifted person to obtain language on that level in just a year.
    99% of my Korean friends who spent a year in America can still barely speak English.
    Literally no one, out of 5 of my friends who went to Japan, can speak fluent Japanese even 2-3 years in.
    Most people don't acquire a whole language in a year or even 2 or 3. I've been living in Korea for 4 years and still am not fluent despite having a Korean husband and studying intensively. Her not obtaining fluency and returning to the US is not failure. It's life. yall gotta get off your dick ridden high horses, for fuck's sake. If you gonna be a hater at least find something legitimate to bitch about.

    For anime recs: [The] Tatami Galaxy. It's based on a novel (if you'd be interested in that, too); it's a kooky slice of life/somewhat of a romance/somewhat of a magical realism.
    The same author who wrote the original novel, wrote another called The Night is Short Walk on Girl, that was also turned into an anime (a movie, though, not series). It's pretty similar but I absolutely recommend it as well.

    I don't know how well it'd play out, but I think a neat idea would be to set up a website or maybe a youtube video compilation of music that you read alongside the poetry book with time stamps of what music fits with which pieces. I feel like it could give a more personal feel to the book, and you can always change and improve things if it doesn't work during the process. It is time consuming though, unless you already feel like you know what would accompany your book well (without being copyright claimed). Good luck, and wish you all the best with your book this year! Hopefully it will come out in time for autumn to rise again.

    I love how people attack her for trying to figure out who she was when she was younger. As if they didn't have their own identity crisis at some point. I used to be super goth in high school, listened to ICP and heavy metal and was generally an angry teenager. Now I wear pink all the time, listen to indie or stuff like Robin Guthrie and I'm way nicer! All people go through weird phases while growing into an adult. Get over yourself and go cyberbully someone who actually deserves it.

    Hey Kenna, I’ve been watching your videos on and off for a couple of years and I just wanted to say that you’re doing great. You don’t have to explain yourself for every minuscule thing that you do. You don’t have to pretend like you’re happy with a situation just to avoid hateful and invasive comments.

    You've been there for a year and can only order food...? Not trying to be mean, but I thought actually being in the country would be a huge help to learning the language. Never expected you do be fluent or anything, but that seem like way less language progression than I thought. Especially since you went to language school on top of it.
    I studied japanese way back in the day for 1 year in a university in my home country, and learned a ton! Granted, I never got fluent(that takes way longer usually) and I've forgotten a lot of it since I haven't touched japanese since, but I learned way beyond "ordering food" in that year. I'm a bit puzzled. I guess staying abroad is not a guaranteed help.

    • @purpledawn2727
      @purpledawn2727 4 года назад +5

      @@marcelalopez9053 yeah that may be, but still. Staying in japan should've given her lots of opportunities to listen to, speak and practice the language. 6 months at a language school should be more than enough to give her the basics to pursue the language on her own(if she *wanted* to), especially since she was in japan for 6 more months. It just seems a bit fishy.
      Either she found the language/school too difficult, or she found it boring(which I know it can be) and quit.
      Or she might've just isolated herself. Nothing can really be learned if you don't try, and if she kind of kept to her apartment/neighbourhood the whole time, then she wouldn't get immersed in the language anf culture that much.

I was literally complaining before you mentioned that on a fake news post that was saying Elsa would get a girlfriend in Frozen 3 and I explained all the reasons why I felt Elsa should be Aromantic/asexual and I think she would be a wonderful example for those in the Aro/ace community. Personally I am not, I am demisexual and very romantic. Even then I get annoyed how everyone assumes people need romantic partnership to be happy! I personally think Elsa getting a boyfriend or girlfriend would ruin the integrity of the character.
