      Russia is bad at helping their mentally ill; Japan is bad at helping theirs who are mentally ill and even my own home Sweden is bad at helping them.. Psycological problems are hard to reach, and hard to pin-point, since they are not always visable from the outside.
      This is a global problem, not only national ones, and we need to face that we ourselves have to find an understanding. We cannot stand and shout that we are so much better than anyone else; because in reality we all are weak to some degree, we are just weak for different situations and so on. We as societies need to be more understanding of people and their respective perspectives on life. We cannot know what they have gone through without first listening to them.
      Then there are people who simply cannot live a fullfilling life and therefor chose to end their misery. I can understand the logic behind such a descision if I go back to myself. I would not like to be a constant cost for my family, not being able to provide anything at all, not being able to spend time with them and so on; then what is life worth living for?

      @thaddeuscheeleyjr.369 6 лет назад +26

      Just Seattle? Dude, if all homeless were like this, we'd have more people willing to help them. Some are homeless because of things completely outside of their own control but many are homeless because of their own faults with addictions and vices they would rather die giving up (*cough** L.A. *cough**).
      These Japanese homeless have found themselves defeated (lost jobs, negatively ended marriages, bankruptcy, addictions), but instead of going to bear the shame on their families, they've exiled themselves. I don't think it's a perfect solution, but they haven't fallen into deprivation too far (building secluded homes, organizing to feed each other a great meal twice a week, protesting peacefully while respecting people & cops in the streets).
      These are vagabonds, men without homes. But they've still got some decency about them, a sign that they were raised well and, in their eyes, respect their families enough not to disgrace them further by becoming violent. If a good majority of homelessness was this experience worldwide, in my opinion, I think it would be hard to ignore them like they are in Japan and in many others places.

    People need to understand that the simple act of renting an apartment is crazy difficult in Japan.
    Aside from all the bureaucratic hurdles you need to prove that you don't only have a fixed income but one which is far higher than the rent you will have to pay. Japanese people never take any risks.
    Then you have to pay several months of rent in advance and the fees for the agency that advertised the apartment for the landlord. All in all you need to pay about 6 months of rent to even move in.

    How recent is this footage? There is nothing wrong with your production quality, narration, or camerawork, but the analogue nature of the recording makes me feel like I'm watching an old movie from the 90's. Don't mean to offend, just my honest opinion.
    If you need new equipment, I would be willing to pitch in, but I am a lazy person, and making 12 separate payment of $1/$2 is a lot of work for me. If you could bundle all of your work into a neat package, I think it would make it easier for many people to support you.

      Thank you for your kind words, Nekros! You clearly know audio - this was filmed on amateur equipment just over ten years ago. It was my first PBS documentary series. If you go to the channel and look at the China, Cuba, or Egypt videos then the specs will be much improved (I just finished filming in China and some of the footage is still in post).
      I make sure the older stories are still accurate before posting them - happily, not much changes in Japan.
      Great idea! I will ask the fulfillment house if they can put together a package of all of my docs. This channel - and the proceeds of those downloads - all go to my educational nonprofit called Take 2. If you're willing to support the videos and help Take 2, here is a link take2videos.org/DONATE/Donate.html. None of us take any salary and I'm paying for the film shoots out of pocket, so I'm hoping that this channel does well enough to at least cover equipment someday.
      I delete a lot of unpleasant comments, so thank you again for taking the time to write.

      @@OurHumanPlanet I wanted to share my point of view, because I felt it might represent many of the younger people who stumble across your videos. We are very impatient people, so we may be deterred from helping just out of the difficulty of it, despite having best intentions to do so.
      Thank you for that link! That makes it even easier :)

    I think some key differences between the homeless in Japan any the homeless in America, are:
    1. Many American homeless are veterans who got messed up by war. Japan hasn't really been involved in war in a very long time.
    2. Many American homeless are addicted to drugs, which aren't as easy to obtain in Japan.

    I end up thinking “if only” to tragic circumstances like these Japanese homeless. If only materials would be provided, I bet they could live more humanely. It gets COLD there!
    These homeless are amazingly organized, and are detail oriented.
    I cried at learning of their plight!
    I hope they will be able to get the help and assistance that they need...

    Unfortunately, it's not just Japan with massive homeless population. Yes, a great deal of them are men, older ones often war veterans; homeless women don't have the option to return home in the states but seem to get a few more services then men; but many are now families finding themselves living in tent cities or their vehicles.
