Sensei, I love all gour podcast. I recently practicing listening more so that I can adopt on native speaker's speed and accent. It helps me understand Japanese in a more deeper way than just studying grammars and memorizing vocabularies. It helps me build a japanese thinking brain that allows me to talk in japanese way and not in english way.
Shun-san, you are a very open Japanese person! Sometimes maybe too much so! It's great that more people are able to appreciate Japanese culture now, but I feel that if the country becomes too open it will lose a big part of its identity (like what happened with Canada). It is of course impossible for Japan to close its borders like it did during the Tokugawa period, however at a certain point if may become necessary for Japan to evaluate what is more important, preserving culture and uniformity or letting in foreigners and bolstering the economy. It is a really complicated situation, but I would hate it if Japanese culture were to be destroyed by greedy and selfish foreigners. Japan must not fall because it is the home of kami and untainted wisdom.
Ciao from Italy, very interesting today's speech thanks. You touch an important point. It is complicated to write in a comment what I think. There is a cultural problem and I think it will end again with a Japan close to the the other countries. My wife is Japanese and I've been in Japan many times, I love Japan, but I have to be honest, the cultural problem is quite big. Typically a japanese person don't understand that a tourist, a foreigner, comes from a different culture, with different rules, different mindset, different concepts on what is good and what is bad. Japan has so many different rules, that is impossible for a tourist to study and learn all the rules. Japanese people don't think on that, just become angry. Japan society is based on a very rigid sistem of rules, other societies are based on a more relaxed sistem of rules with more freedom . Look, in italy we have many tourists from all over the world, and many immigrants. I know they come from different cultures so I try to understand them, and sometimes to learn from them. Of course it is not always easy and there are problems, but if they don't break the law, that's ok, if they do something we don't like so much like listening to music on the train, we let it go, we think: let's try to live all together in pece, that's nothing so bad!. I know very well that Japanese people hide their real thoughts behind good manners and kind words, but many of them think (not all of them fortunately) that we are barbarian without rules, and ther's nothing to learn from us.
@JapanesewithShun I'm sorry I was a bit hard in the comment, maybe too much, it is based on my personal experience in japan, I don't want to be offensive in any way, but I tried to be sincere. It is my way to show respect. I'm going to come back to Japan next summer with the family and I'm learning a lot from your videos, thank you very much.
Put 5 tourists among 100 Japanese and they will start to respect Japanese rules. Put 5 Japanese among 100 tourists and they will adopt the bad manners of the tourists. Over tourism is damaging Japan. It disturbs the quality of social life, something that is based on hundred of years of learning how to build an harmonious society. People are not naturally behaving nicely, they learn it and respect it by being immersed with others being incentivised in behaving this way. Some limits should be put on the number of tourists (both in absolute entry levels and in accommodation concentration in some areas such as Kyoto). And obviously some form of taxation should be put in place (either a daily tax on accommodation or an entry fee into the country) so that tourism contributes to the economy (all the more that tourism is a low value added, high people intensive business, something which is exactly the opposite of what a mature country such as Japan needs).
Sensei, unfortunately, I find this episode too long and difficult. A lot of expressions that I don’t understand were not explained at the end. I’m usually fine with your podcasts. May be because the episode was so long I was loosing concentration also.
Shun sensei's channel was the best thing to happen to me since moving to Japan.
Aww really? Thank you so much!！

ありがとう！勉強時間です
ありがとうございます！
去年、京都へ旅行したが、本当に素晴らしい経験だった！今年の3月大阪の旅の間に、また京都に行った。でも今回は人が多すぎた！ほとんど歩けなくて、レストランは全部満員だった。だからはやく大阪へ帰った😅 ちょっと残念だった。。。
そうですよね。
最近日本は、本当にオーバーツーリズムの問題があると思います；）次に行けるといいですね；）
やすみの前にこちをきくはとてもリラクスです
嬉しいです。ありがとうございます。

It is very interesting point of view;)
@@JapanesewithShun Maybe I was a bit too harsh with my comment, but I like Japanese culture so much and don't want it to disappear.
こんばんわ shun さん🙏 お元気 ですか❤❤❤

Thank you for the opinion! I am learning so much from many different opinions;)
もし観光客がみんなルールを守っていて、少なくとも一般常識があるのなら、そんなことは必要ないと思います。確かに地元の人たちが第一で、誰も自分の住んでいる場所を壊されたくないと思います。 観光はイエス、環境を壊すのはノー。
そうですね。みんながマナーとルールを守ってくれたら、こんなことをしなくてもいいんですけどね。
前は人気がないとこらがインスタで急に名所になるとき、同じ事が起こるのがちょっと怖いです。他の解決策があるか分からなくて、政府はしなけれべならないことをしたと思います。
そうですね。インスタのおかげで、本当にどこが急に人気になることがありますよね。

Ohh thank you so much for the important opinions!
I will still make the original short ones as well;))
