A random vending machine selling propaganda, children's snacks, and dirty jokes. Somehow, it has recreated the experience of having a drunk uncle, all at a low price. What a deal!
I've got to say
The guy who made these missed a great joke. On the first one, alcohol would have been hysterical.
For the second one, a novelty vibrator
Open 24 hrs
Will serve anyone
The video quality makes me feel like this is real and I walk the streets of Japan 🥹🔥
I'm so glad the video makes you feel like you're walking the streets of Japan! That's exactly the vibe I was going for! 🥹🔥
I love seeing all the vending machines.
Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Of all the things that could have been in that Panda Can, I was not expecting a dully baked muffin!
It's always a surprise with those mystery cans, isn't it? A dully baked muffin is definitely an unexpected find! It's the fun of the unexpected that makes these experiences memorable. Thanks for sharing your reaction!
I liked the 'enter here to get mugged' vending machine alcove.
Imagine buying a meat sandwich from a vending machine in the US. Instant death.
Haha, buying a meat sandwich from a vending machine in the US does sound risky!
I got upset stomach after eating a meat & cheese snack at work that was bought at a supermarket. Buying a sandwich from a vending machine here would def put you in ER in best case scenario.
It'd be fine, because in the US it would be 95% preservative and 5% meat 😂👍
😂😂😂😂❤ beef botulism
Wish we had the variety of vending machines that Japan does, but there are some in the US with fresh sandwiches, soup, yogurt, and fruit, much better than the candy and chips we usually have. Few and far between, though, but perfectly healthy if well-maintained.
I've seen so many videos of this place over the years and nobody ever buys the beetle. It would be fascinating if someone could track down the owner and get him to agree to an interview.
That would be quite the story! It's intriguing that no one ever buys the beetle. An interview with the owner could definitely shed some light on that mystery.
I have seen someone buying the beetle but i can’t remember anymore because i watched back in the lockdown 😂
I wanna say safiya nygaard might have but I also watch a lot of these
The vending machines sure are odd,but it Japan we are talking about.This is one of the reasons i love this country,they make something that seems impossible into possible.Great video👍.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you appreciate the uniqueness of Japan's vending machines. They really do turn the ordinary into something extraordinary. Stay tuned for more interesting insights from Japan! 👍
Ah, the legendary place with weird vending machines. Ive been here many times, got a few jars of random things.
What a great way to end a rough day at work. Thanks for the vid and much love and respect from the u.s.a.
I'm glad the video could brighten your day! Thanks for the love and respect from the U.S.A.!
Umm, @ 18:00, It is a "Panda Cotta"... I will see myself out.
Ugh take your like and leave. I'm just jealous I didn't think of it myself.
I love your videos so much. My husband and I watch every single one. Your videos are so calming and help me with my anxiety. Thank you!!
Thank you Sir for making a video for me. I really enjoy it, and I love how Japan has really so much from having Games, shops, transportation, and more. Japan is like a fun Heaven. Thank you for sharing this time with us, and I hope you will make a video again. 🎉🥳🗾
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the video and appreciate all the wonderful things Japan has to offer. Japan really is a unique place full of excitement! I look forward to making more videos for you to enjoy. 🎉🥳🗾
Vending machine factory here, Japanese people love vending machines, they purchase machines for everything. We sell a lot of machines for trading cards now.
You always find quiet places to eat your snacks. I love it 😊
Thank you for another interesting trip😊 It's impossible to be bored with you🥰 I would love to try oden vending machine😋
Can't wait for our japan trip in beginning of August. I'm so excited
Thank you for this great video. It's amazing what can be purchased from vending machines.
All the wrappers and containers look so nice. People would think i'd be taking trash home with all of them.
Japanese packaging is indeed impressive! It's part of what makes shopping there so unique. People often keep the packaging as souvenirs. Thanks for noticing the details!
Isn't Akihabra more of a Tourist Destination for most? Those Vending machine's in the corner seem like they are meant for folk's like that, But that is so cool to be honest with you. Honestly When you where showing off the Milk flavor's I'm curious what the I assume would be a lime flavored one er the Green carton would taste like. Honestly I love the idea of vending machine's like they have there in Japan, Shame stuff like that would be quickly broken here in the state's. But thank you for the video I enjoy watching your Stuff so much.
I'm glad you're enjoying the videos, and it's great to hear you find the vending machines as cool as I do! The variety of milk flavors in Japan is indeed fascinating-wish we could have such unique options everywhere. Thanks for watching and for your kind words!
09:27 The legendary Haunted Vending Machines of Akihabara. I've heard about those. Some say that those who don't use exact change are doomed to a horrible fate. But most people say that's just stupid.
Thank you sir new video again 🥫🍢🥛🧃🇯🇵💯👍🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️
You're welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Thanks for your support and enthusiasm! 🥫🍢🥛🧃🇯🇵💯👍🏻❤️
I love when you do walks & vending machines! Such unusual items in those machines. I would sit there all day & try so many. Because we don’t have those like that in the US!
Wow!! This was a true adventure!! You are braver than I, because no way I would've gone near those mystery packages!!!
I only wished you had done the shaky hand with the naughty joke! That always cracks me up😂😂😂
Thanks for the comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the adventure. Maybe next time I'll include the shaky hand joke just for you! 😄
So many unique Vending Machines! I wish I had them where I live now, would be SUPER useful to walk to a close one, and get a snack or a drink, or even a small meal! We'll never have that here where I am now though, They'd be vandalized or broken into or both far too often, at least in my current neighborhood. I am sorry you lost with those sus Vending Machines too! I was like "NOOOO DON'T DO IT!" when you were getting the boxes! The sandwich and soup you had looked AMAZING though! I also adored the Panda can! The Panda is my favorite animal! I ADORE them so so much! I can't wait to get moved to Japan for school, and also see and EXPERIENCE JAPAN for myself! Oh, before I forget, I announce your new videos every time one is out on my discord now, so my community can discover you! Thank you for another wonderful and amazing video, that was chill and great vibes as always! You are my most favorite content creator on RUclips and an inspiration to me! Stay safe, amazing, and wonderful in your travels dear friend! See you next video!
Thanks so much for your kind words! I’m glad you enjoyed the vending machines and the Panda can! I appreciate your support and sharing my videos in your community. Can’t wait to welcome you to Japan someday! Stay amazing! 😊
Thanks for sharing 🍀
I definitely want to visit Japan, thanks to your videos!!
That's wonderful to hear! I'm glad my videos could inspire your interest in Japan. I hope you'll have a fantastic trip when you get the chance to visit. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
mystery box idea is crazy, wow
I'd definitely use the panda bread tin as a pen/pencil holder for my desk
wow 😍
OMG, the vending machine with the stories is still there?!😄
Also; Maneki Neko Karaoke ( @18:30 )?? Aww hek yeah😁
Very cool.
Akiba is definitely on my bucket list.
The katsu sando looked the best of the bunch. Will have to try the next tine I'm there
Fascinating. Thank you! I’d love to, but I live on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. I lived in Japan many years ago. It’s changed, yet it hasn’t.
Interesting.
augh id love to visit Akihabara in the future when i'm more financially stable, it seems like a great place to visit!
i also would love to hit up Tokyo, Heard they have a Ensemble Stars Cafe there and Ensemble Stars is my favorite game and from the videos ive seen of the cafe it looks so cozy!
I see all your videos and everything it’s snack jajajaa 15:39 it’s a funny moment hahahahaa
Wouldn’t the meat vending machines require refrigeration to be safe to eat and then of course the ability to heat them up?
Creepy 😬 not sure I would try the food 😣 thank you for taking us be careful ✌️🥰😘
ohh french people ! still quite rare to come across in Japanese videos, I recognized it straight away ( im canadien french haha)
That's awesome! It must have been a nice surprise to spot some fellow French speakers in a Japanese video!
Vending machines in Japan are so cool. The mystery box machine is quite a gamble but at least you know it. Some vending machines, here in the USA, just rip you off by having expired food. Do you have zoos in Japan? I'd love to see a video of one.
O. M. G. so many machines! In UK if u buy a meat sandwich from a machine = 12 hours running to the toilet ! Even though I'm old, fav milk would be chocolate milk. Very interesting video thankyou. 😊
Haha, I hear you about the meat sandwiches! Glad you enjoyed the video, and chocolate milk is a classic favorite for a good reason. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
A triumphant return to the shady Akihabara vending machines...!
Omg that vending machine selling childrens snacks wrapped in adult jokes and propaganda is actually really hilarious like who is that even meant for
Glad you found it funny! It's definitely a quirky mix meant to catch everyone's eye. 😄
To the forlorn mystery box vendor: We love you, Japan. You've made great contributions to the world.
Peach flavored milk sounds kinda good! (as a person who loves peach stuff)
the expensive part was the joke ;-)
The cream Collon is a take of we have in the USA as Combos which is a savory snack
Pretty Creepy Vending Machines are The ones I Like best 😭
All Of them where nice though.
Those shady vending machines are very fascinating. If I had to guess, given how secluded they are, I'd say they're for the local community, not for tourists. The things written on the mystery boxes could be from local residents sharing whatever's on their mind. Then, whoever owns the machines collects the notes and puts them on the prizes. Kind of like an anonymous message board, but with vending machine prizes instead.
Dude i hope one day you can collaborate with travelgeek,he has the most wonderful japan travel video just like yours but still yours is stil my favorite
0:53 - Is that Virtual On playing on the building? I haven't seen that game since I played it in my Dreamcast 20 years ago. If it's not that game series then it sure does look like it. I played a lot in the arcade back in the 90's, really enjoyed it.
Yes, that's Virtual On! It's great to hear it brings back memories of your Dreamcast days. Those arcade times were really something, weren't they?
@@experience_japan I remember I had a bad habit back then of sucking on my lip when a game would get really intense, lol. I had to stop myself from doing it after a long session of Virtual On because my lip was swollen and painful to touch.
Can't wait to see where you take us next.
In my trip in Tokyo last April I only do gachapons at Akihabara just once.
This is the thing i worry about the most when thinking about visiting Japan: the language and having someway of translating it. Japan seems a fascinating and fun place to visit but i worry about being in a country so foreign to my own culture. Isnt it isolating and intimidating? What struggles do Westerners face the most . . . .id love to hear from people about their experiences.
😂Their Time square looks animated asl
Omg EJ!! You won't guess what happened to me... A pizza vending machine appeared in my town!! Did someone watch your video, and grab the idea?
By the way, it's next to an outdoor laundrette vending machine, which some people might think is strange. But it works well and is popular!
This is in the UK. :)
Wow, that's amazing! It sounds like your town is getting really innovative with vending machines. Maybe someone did get inspired by my videos; that would be incredible! It's great to hear that both machines are popular. Thanks for sharing this fun update!
Well, i know where i’ll be hanging out if I ever visit Japan - a district dedicated to video games! 😅
That sounds like a blast! Japan's gaming districts, like Akihabara in Tokyo, are truly a paradise for gamers. You'll have a great time exploring all the shops and arcades. Hope you get to experience it soon! 😄
I saw a RUclips video from a Canadian woman living in Japan who also bought a few of these mysterious boxes and she couldn't say what was written on them because it was x-rated 😂 and she also got the same animal cookies and I believe the cream collon biscuits. Whoever owns the machines must have a very weird imagination; to me it's a bit scary. 😳
Very interesting video! Thank you for sharing. Cheers!
Thank you! Cheers!
Dang look at that strong manly hand struggle to get the box out of the vending machine 10/10 would play again! 😂🎉😂🎉 3:03
Sensational my friend I really enjoy your videos live life to the fullest much love please be safe
Thanks so much! I'm thrilled you enjoy the videos. Live life to the fullest indeed-stay safe and much love!
@@experience_japan your welcome can't wait to see your next adventure
i watched all ur vedios u encouraging me work harder life is beutiful 😊
"Wow! They have it! Canned muffin!"
The message is for those that use Izakaya's and then drive home drunk without knowing that they aren't allowed too
This message serves as a reminder to everyone who might not know that driving home drunk after visiting an izakaya is not allowed. Please stay safe and make responsible choices!
Rewinding to try and read the dirty joke at 15:20, and seeing it's the most replayed part of the video. That's funny.
Man soon i want to visit Japan🥹❤️
And i want to know whether Ramen will be made without pork broth, the reason why im asking this is we wont eat pork in our family. Is there ramen with chicken broth ?? Am curious to know about it

will be coming back in JP but sadly, I'll be in Osaka instead T.T wish i can drop by in Akihabara again even if just briefly... but yeah...
Even though you'll be in Osaka, there's still a lot to explore and enjoy there! Osaka has its own vibrant scene with places like Namba and Dotonbori, where you can experience fantastic food and lively entertainment. While it's not Akihabara, Osaka has a lot of charm and exciting places to discover. I hope you have a great time!
Tell us the dirty jokes! 😂
Have you ever ran into Eric surf 6? Just curious
Wish we had these in the US😊
EJ I do have a question for you. What is the brown liquid soup with food floating in it available at come convenience stores? This was a total mystery to me when I travelled to Japan.
That's a great question! The brown liquid soup you saw is likely "oden," a popular Japanese winter dish. It typically consists of various ingredients like daikon radish, boiled eggs, and fish cakes stewed in a light soy-flavored broth. It's really tasty and a must-try during the colder months!
@@experience_japan Ahhh the mystery is solved! I learned SO much from your videos for my recent trip, I felt SO much more comfortable. You are a god send, keep up the amazing work!!
Room temperature katsu is safe to eat after being inside the vending machine for who knows how long?
Yes, it's generally safe as vending machine items are designed to be stored safely for a certain period. Enjoy your katsu!
The last place looks very dodgy ... I never imagined I could see I place like that in Japan... 😮
I've seen those mystery boxes in other videos and they all contain the same overpriced snacks. I would like to know more about the person behind them though.
Mystery boxes can be a fun surprise, but it's interesting to hear that they often contain similar items. Learning about the creators behind these boxes could definitely add an intriguing layer to the experience. I'll see what I can find out for future videos. Thanks for your interest!
🇹🇷👍
At 9:11 someone is speaking in swedish and talking about Sweden. 🇸🇪
Is there any way I can get the contact of these Japanese vending machine companies?
I would buy everything.
9:50 Tagged walls? In Japan? Noo, why -_-
did i hear somebody say do you know where the bathroom is? ;)
Bro I'm so sorry I think you should probably cut the part of that 2nd letter bcuz ppl who are curious abt wt contains in the letter will google translate it and later regret it(I mean I didn't regret it as this kinda stuff is common in UK . But I do understand that the japanese culture doesn't promote this kinda stuff and I respect it )
Meat stored at room temperature makes me nervous!
Does this person always carry chopsticks around with him?
I wouldn't survive in Japan being an American... I'd be searching all around for a cheeseburger or tacos
The last vending machine not worth the money.thd boxes with notes in them.over price even for Japan u see these on alot of RUclips channel
I don't get it. It's a big city, where are the drug addicts, unemployed, homeless, opportunistic thieves and mindless vandals
It's interesting to observe different urban environments. Japan often has lower visibility of such social issues in public spaces due to various cultural, economic, and policy factors, including strong social cohesion and comprehensive welfare systems. It's a complex topic that involves many aspects of society. Thanks for raising this point!
Just not many vending machines here in the USA anymore. Mainly in airports and hospitals. And limited at that. Was much more 25+ years ago. I don't know how people in Japan stay so thin. I guess you walk more than we do. I have a feeling I'd be a fat American if I lived in your country 😂
I guess the last letter was about a student who can't afford tuition fee and choose to become an AV actress?
Seeing Japan selling food in vending machines that you can buy without fear of winding up in ER with acute food poisoning really makes America look like 3rd world country….
It's impressive how Japan manages food safety, especially with vending machine items. It highlights the difference in regulatory approaches and public health standards between countries. Thanks for sharing your observation!
so funny why would anyone do this
Which part of the mystery box did you pay extra for: the rant about politics or the inappropriate joke you probably didn't laugh at?
Haha, it's all part of the mystery box experience! Both were unexpected bonuses!
This box contains complaints about politics.
I love seeing you buying food from the vending machines. I would definitely love to eat from one of the vending machines. Was you scared or worried about what was really in those packages? I don't like buying stuff that I don't know what it is. I've never heard of peach flavored milk before, I would give it a try. You didn't get any dessert, we have to have some dessert 🍰 . Always waiting on the next video. I hate you go your money took because of scamming people it's so wrong.😢😢 Now you know what they are and can tell other people it's a scam. Loved the video, Thank you.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! I was a bit nervous about the mystery items too. Peach milk is definitely worth a try. Next time, I'll make sure to grab some dessert! Thanks for watching, and I appreciate your support. Stay tuned for more!
I want to start a family with nice Japanese girl if any read this hmu I'm very nice guy
I would die for one of those beetles. 🥲
Strange vending machines? I need to see this
They probably sell old water bottles lol
wow 😍
