You're a wife, mother, content creator but above all else, you're human and everyone has rough weeks. There is never a need to apologize or feel bad when you have a very real week.
As a man who enjoys cooking for his children, thank you. I have made several bento for my daughters with cute onigiri and vegetables. Always wanted to try katsu bento.
My dad was the cook in our family, I have many wonderful memories of his delicious cooking. I’m certain your daughters appreciate you now and will appreciate you even more when they’re older.
i can’t imagine how much effort and energy making all these meals must take. even when you have weeks you feel off or like you can’t do it every day, you’re doing so much!! and you’re sharing it with all of us, too, and showing us what really and truly caring about your meals looks like. thank you!
Can we just appreciate imamu's hard work. I tried cooking during my days off. The amount of effort and hours in just doing grocery, preparing the ingredients, the cooking, and the cleaning after is immense. Although the experience is really rewarding but still, after that, I decided to just keep being a working lady and get food deliveries. Lol
yeah, honestly being a housewife is more work than 99% of jobs that working people do. People always think that housewives are just "spoiled" and lazy, and the husbands do all the hard work but in reality its the opposite: housewives work 24/7 and dont even get paid, whereas working husbands only work on average 40 hours a week and they get paid and they get all their food and stuff prepared for them. Personally I prefer to work, but I have a lot of respect for housewives bc most people would not be able to work as hard as them
@@botanicalitus4194 hmm idk about that but ur free 2 have ur opinion I would love 2 be at home making chores and so on but reality is u have a whole day doing things how u want it to do this is literally more freedom as working full time (sry for my bad english) what I‘m trying 2 say being at home is great and wonderful if u have kids and ur partner can pay for it all alone but bruuh working full time vs full time housekeeper and last one is the difficult one of them I guess we live on separate planets
Literally one has 2 give in for the system to be a slave of it while the other has the freedom to enjoy themself that’s how things work and blabbering about how hard that life is is just being whiny as it’s finest I mean she does those things literally out of the respect for her husband working his ass off and thus she’s trying her best 2 make him comfortable at work and off work and I think that’s beautiful buuuuut plz never say that again that the job of a housewife is harder then 99% of the jobs u clearly never worked or had a job I mean did u ever finished a 12 h shift and u compare this 2 doing chores shiet single people do all that alone and go to work
Sry if I got offensive didn’t mean it but ur view of things just triggered the fk outta me Not just as men making for a living and paying rent + doing chores all by myself I just found that very offensive for all the people who do those things and have no one making those things easier at home Little side note: I know being full time mommy at home is very hard but u just can’t compare this to the mental stress and most of the time also physically exhausting activities from work u just can’t been there done it so I can say that !!!!!
@@nikdavid907 imagine thinking a stay at home wife has more freedom than a person who only works 8 hours a day. Like they said stay at home wives are on the clock 24/7 doing unpaid labor for typical ungrateful husbands that believe their work is way harder. You get time off she won’t get time off because being a stay at home wife and mother is a full time job
I look at this is awe about how much effort and love goes onto this. As someone who grew up on packed lunches, none of them could ever compare to the craftsmanship put into this, but I feel a certain feeling of warmth thinking about the love that was put by my parents into them. Thank you for sharing this.
I love these videos! I am American and my husband is Japanese. It’s hard for me to make ideas for Japanese bento on my own since I didn’t grow up eating Japanese food. These videos make it very easy for me to make bento my husband can enjoy.
I can't tell what I like watching more : Seeing her and her family enjoy meals together and her daughter being irresistibly adorable, or seeing her pour everything into making husbentos. Good job this week Imamu room 🎉🥰🥳
Every time I feel stressed or anxious, I come watch your channel. It is so soothing for some reason! And I'm learning all sorts of new recipes to make for my husband!
I love her recipes, I love her "realness", I love her sense of humour... and I love the community of this channel, the comments are as sweet as Imamu, and that's what she deserves the most. Let's support her all together!
the queen has posted. now i’ll be able to survive my hard days 🥺 i always come to your channel when i feel down to relieve my stress. your videos means a lot to me !
i like seeing how the ham cutlet turned out. I think last time when Imamu put cheese instead of egg and cut it in half, the fried batter didn't stick to the ham. But this time it did! Nice job, Imamu!!!
I was actually thinking how good it would be with egg and cheese filling. But maybe that would be too much and it would burst open when you fry it? Not sure but this channel is making me want to invest in an air fryer.
@@Miss_Kisa94 they are very common in Spain and are called sanjacobos, you put some toothpicks in to unite it with the ham before trying it and then you take them out after so the cheese doesnt spill a lot when you fry it, they are delicious hope it helps
@@missbarretto5184 In Spain we just do one coat of beaten eggs and then bread crumbs, it's really good I recommend it, if one layer of egg and then bread sounds too little you can always do another one but I think that one should be enough 💜💜💜💜💜
There's such a caring air in the things you cook, it's like you are telling us "this Is not my obligation but I want this person to eat good food", I believe that given my personality I wouldnt don't do this for someone unless I loved AND cared for someone a lot
"just to let you know I didn't survive this week, there is no particular reason" MOOD!! also you have zero need for a reason, I just love how relatable and genuine and wholesome your content is and thank you for posting despite not having a good week, you made my day
Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great! I have worked as a personal trainer since 2019 and now I have started my youtube channel as I want to help more and more people achieving their goals.!!! I do mostly home workouts and all the exercises that I post are proven and their results are very pleasing. I would appreciate a lot your support by subscribing and maybe you will find something that may help you as well.!!!
Dear Imamu, your channel is a soothening source for me. The videos are just a treat, the way you work with light and sound, especially when the music is quiet - I just feel comforted. Thank you for all the recipes, footages of your family meals and the atmosphere that your share! Please, take care and enjoy life 🌸
there are so much positivity in imamu’s video, even she is not feeling her best. from her food, her family, her daughter, even ppl’s comments. it’s solid fact for there are real good ppl and real love out there. i love this channel so much. i think everyone should see her video and feel this. ❤️
Some weeks are very hard to survive. I had a rough one myself last week, and am trying to survive this one now, and watching your videos is helping a lot. Thank you for your kindness in sharing a glimpse of your family and the meals you cook for them - you are always so creative! I hope your next week is easier on you :). Take care!
Seeing these videos, all the time, effort and wholesomeness makes me think of my Mama, she used to do this for me as a child. I miss her everyday, but watching these reminds me of her love and care. Thank you for that, even though it's probably not your intention with these videos😊
I'm so sorry to hear that you've had a rough week this week. Take a break, spend some time for yourself! And you never have to apologize, you do so much already.
I moved into college this week, all the way across the county and I’m really homesick so not really surviving the week either lol. Thanks for the video it cheered me up :)

I hope you feel better but just know we’re all human and even you need a break especially with so many responsibilities I don’t know how you can do it all without having this type of week more regularly. take care of yourself, burnout is also expected when you’re in the middle of a pandemic and every day feels the same. sending love your way!
This is amazing!! I am NOT a morning person (nor is my husband, but he does contracting and has forced himself to get used to the waking up at 7am schedule) we both thrive at like 12am lol. Now the older we've gotten the more we've started to get tired around 11pm - 12am. I always make his lunches to bring the next morning the night before such as cashew chicken dish, lasagnas, fried rice + potstickers etc but man, if i could wake up at 6am and make food, that opens up a whole new variety to make because of freshness, but ya'll, I can't do 6am. I may intend to make a gorgeous ham cutlet but there might be a shoe in it instead because Im half awake 😂
I'm not a morning person either but due to me having to go to work and kids who sometimes prefer to bring their own meal rather than buying, I force myself (😂) to cook lunch for us to bring to work/school. To make things easier and faster I usually do a meal-prep the night before. I'll seasoned/marinated the proteins and keep them in tightly shut containers in the fridge, prepare and boil/steam the veggies and keep them in the fridge too, prepare some broth if we want soupy meals for our packed lunch. It'll be much easier in the morning to just fry or grill the already seasoned proteins and make some soup to go coz I've prepared them all the night before.
Husband should appreciate the love and care you put into these meals! You've earned a back rub and a spa day Imamu! Take care and please get some rest!
I hope you're doing okay! No need to apologise, you're such a wonderful person! I look forward to your videos every week, and am inspired by your hard work, kindness, and dedication to what you do :)
I've been watching your videos since the start of the pandemic and I love seeing how much your subscriber list has grown! Every week I wait for your upload and watch it while eating dinner. :)
Bless you and all that you do! We have all had those weeks where we just can't. You are a beautiful person and a hard working wife and mom, never be ashamed to admit that you need a break!
I actually watched the video when Imamu's husband cooked for her, it was hilarious! I wish we could have that again, husband bento cooks, edits and play a piano piece that he practice months for it!
I am absolutely blown away. This is the first video I've come across. This is beyond amazing. I definitely feel like I could never deserve to be with someone this dedicated to their partner's happiness.
Just what I needed. Feeling anxious and unwell. You’re videos always provide so much calm and relaxation. Also a feeling of happiness and love. It’s clear you have a wonderful happy family
Hello Imamu I like what you said about fried rice, having a lot of the good stuff you enjoy eating. I also like to eat my fried rice in this manner! You are such a sweet and gentle soul, please don't get discouraged about not finishing the week! We are all rooting for you and your nice family :)
Your videos are very inspiring. I haven't been able to consistently make lunch for my husbeast since our third child was born some 4 yrs ago! I'm gonna try to let you inspire me! Thank you for being open and transparent about struggles we all have!
A new lunch box 🤩🤩🤩 I love everything you have cooked this week, especially the bitter gourd 😋😋😋💚💚💚 Thank you for this amazing video as always 🌹🌼🎀🌼🎀 Lots of love from Germany ✨✨✨
The plating on these are just picture perfect! They make me wish I could prep or have these meals prepped. The idea of already having a meal ready to go when I sit down to eat is just nice.
I would cry if somebody made me a bento box. The thought and care behind them especially the way they’re put together requires some effort I love it! ❤️
By taking a day for yourself when you needed it, you DID survive the week! It is absolutely healthy to take a break when you need it, the important thing is that you get back to it when you can :) Thank you as always for making these, my home cooking has become more delicious since I started watching your channel, and (mostly) healthier!
you seem so cheerful and talented with your cooking!! and your daughter is just the sweetest, from what I can see! I hope all of you have a wonderful day
I'm amazed by your spirit and ability to keep going. I love your imaginative cooking to make a lunch so beautiful - - shows your own love for family. Your videos are great!
Your videos make me happy in my soul - I travelled a lot in Japan before having my daughter so the foods are familiar and wistful for me. Thank you for what you do! Your recipes have helped expand my 4yr olds palate beyond standard Kiwi (New Zealand) foods, am excited to share bento with her when she goes to school left year ☺️
If I got meals like that, it would always be the best part of my day. I hope your husband appreciates what you do for him. Everything looks so delicious.🤗😍
I have always been a very bad cook, I burn things and don't know what to do if I don't have a recipe. I waste ingredients and money because things I make turn out so bad. It came to the point where I just didn't even try anymore. I watch so many cooking videos but nothing motivated me. But Imamu, your videos inspired me to try to cook again finally. I started last week. Today I cut an onion for the first time in my life! And I am 30 years old... uuuu T_T Haha, anyway the meal turned out great and I shared with my mom, so thank you for sharing your cooking videos~~ I think I will keep up and be healthier by cooking my own food!!!
Awesome job! It's never too late to start learning to cook so don't feel bad about starting late or anything else! Improvement always takes a while but it's always worth it! ^^ Keep it up!
I don’t know why but when I saw her eating the egg whites that she had trimmed off, I suddenly wanted to cry. That image reminds me so much of my mom, always saving the best for my dad and us children whereas she never got anything nice for herself…
Thank you for adding definitions to terms! Like highball [whiskey and soda] I'm new to this whole thing!! So it definitely helps having someone to explain it!
You did survive though! You made it! Thank you for sharing your videos and husbentos! I always watch them when I’m really sad and they always cheer me up and make me feel better
madam your husband must be the luckiest man alive, a this point he is living the life we only see in manga! Loving Wife, beautiful kid, he's achieved Zen
my mom (a Peruvian immigrant, we live in the states now) bought a huge wok SOLELY for the purpose of making big batches of chaufa. In Peru, before and during the world wars (91th-20th centuries) it just wasn't big enough to be valuable or threatening to either side, so it was kinda just a bystander to the wars, and as a result, saw a lot of East Asian immigration. So over time Peruvian cooking blended into the flavors and preparation methods the immigrants brought with them, which resulted in "Chifa" today's word for a kind of cuisine where Peruvian and East Asian food comes together. My grandfather and I went to one such Chifa restaurant (this kind of cooking replaces the western world's "Chinese Restaurants" they're easy to find, especially in big cities like Arequipa or Lima) last summer, and he told me that it's been run by 4 generations of one family now, and is over 60 years old, bc he remembers his parents taking him there when he was just a boy of 15. Chaufa is our fried rice, simply put. and its INSANELY good!
Usually these kind of videos bore me out, but I can watch your videos for hours and still enjoy them. Everyone has times when they just don’t want to do anything, and it’s okay. Take a break and do it when you want to. As long as you enjoy it🥰
I just recently found this channel and I love it! I have already tried some of the recipes and they were so gooood!! Looking forward to many more amazing videos!
I miss the end of the week dinner you have with your beautiful family, but I understand we can't have it all all the time. I hope your weekend made up for your bad week. We all have bad days, it's part of life. We just learn from them and keep it going. Take care hun. God bless you and your precious family that I have grown to love like if you were my own. ❤❤❤
Your bentos look amazing, as always! I am inspired to try new things (like bitter melon). I hope you are able to rest and feel refreshed soon! The new bento box is beautiful! I feel that square is easier to work with than oval, as well.
Thank you for always making wonderful videos, but if you ever are feeling down or tired, please don’t be afraid to take a break. Your health comes first and we will still be here to support you !! 💗💗💗💗
If the meal you made on Friday was you "running out of steam," then I call foul because it was super yummy looking and not at all a lazy meal!!! Great job~~~~
First off, thanks so much for making such great content and also staying so open and real - it's so appreciated to get a glimpse into your life. I hope you're doing well ♡ Secondly! It made me laugh that I watch these only to go home and cook the New Mexican food I always cook haha. But such great ideas!! I have to try sometime.

sucks for you
I think it's another round of pandemic fatigue. I have spoken with a few people who, like me, have had a definite lack of motivation.
Great gran used to say this too shall pass. I understand the fatigue. I suffer from it too. But I remember that it can't rain every day

I bet your husband is so excited to see how you've plated his meals every day, they're always so nice to look at
Honestly, if I got meals plated like this I'd just want to look at how pretty they are. (╥﹏╥)
Imagine being tired and hungry from work and see this heaven that your wife made you.
this would cost a fortune in ny country
I wish more women knew how to cook these days
I smell a bit of sexism

I actually watched the video when Imamu's husband cooked for her, it was hilarious! I wish we could have that again, husband bento cooks, edits and play a piano piece that he practice months for it!
I am absolutely blown away. This is the first video I've come across. This is beyond amazing. I definitely feel like I could never deserve to be with someone this dedicated to their partner's happiness.
Just what I needed. Feeling anxious and unwell. You’re videos always provide so much calm and relaxation. Also a feeling of happiness and love. It’s clear you have a wonderful happy family
Hello Imamu I like what you said about fried rice, having a lot of the good stuff you enjoy eating. I also like to eat my fried rice in this manner! You are such a sweet and gentle soul, please don't get discouraged about not finishing the week! We are all rooting for you and your nice family :)
I love watching Imamu, its like a routine at this point haha
Your videos are very inspiring. I haven't been able to consistently make lunch for my husbeast since our third child was born some 4 yrs ago! I'm gonna try to let you inspire me! Thank you for being open and transparent about struggles we all have!
A new lunch box 🤩🤩🤩 I love everything you have cooked this week, especially the bitter gourd 😋😋😋💚💚💚 Thank you for this amazing video as always 🌹🌼🎀🌼🎀 Lots of love from Germany ✨✨✨
The plating on these are just picture perfect! They make me wish I could prep or have these meals prepped. The idea of already having a meal ready to go when I sit down to eat is just nice.
I would cry if somebody made me a bento box. The thought and care behind them especially the way they’re put together requires some effort I love it! ❤️
That "The Professional" shirt is AMAZING! One of the best movies ever.
I want that shirt so bad
Same i want that shirt.. such an awesome movie
I'm sure your husband must be very happy to eat all this wonderful and loving food you made. 💖🥰
I promise that every time he opens his lunch that his coworkers are like damn that looks good
By taking a day for yourself when you needed it, you DID survive the week! It is absolutely healthy to take a break when you need it, the important thing is that you get back to it when you can :)
Thank you as always for making these, my home cooking has become more delicious since I started watching your channel, and (mostly) healthier!
I love you Imamu
Literally no one cares if I eat or die during the day. Your family is blessed by your presence!
i am glad to discover this chanel, it s my safe place now when i feel moody, i watch one of your video 🥰
you seem so cheerful and talented with your cooking!! and your daughter is just the sweetest, from what I can see!
I hope all of you have a wonderful day
Your videos inspire me to cook for my husband! He says he loves your channel for it. Lol
The love displayed in these clips are beyond chefs kiss! ✨💚
You still did good! :D
I'm amazed by your spirit and ability to keep going. I love your imaginative cooking to make a lunch so beautiful - - shows your own love for family. Your videos are great!
watching your videos is a great relaxing way to end a stressful day
Your videos make me happy in my soul - I travelled a lot in Japan before having my daughter so the foods are familiar and wistful for me. Thank you for what you do! Your recipes have helped expand my 4yr olds palate beyond standard Kiwi (New Zealand) foods, am excited to share bento with her when she goes to school left year ☺️
If I got meals like that, it would always be the best part of my day. I hope your husband appreciates what you do for him. Everything looks so delicious.🤗😍
Love the extra little bits of knowledge about the food like the unknown origin of ham cutlet :D
I have always been a very bad cook, I burn things and don't know what to do if I don't have a recipe. I waste ingredients and money because things I make turn out so bad. It came to the point where I just didn't even try anymore. I watch so many cooking videos but nothing motivated me. But Imamu, your videos inspired me to try to cook again finally. I started last week. Today I cut an onion for the first time in my life! And I am 30 years old... uuuu T_T Haha, anyway the meal turned out great and I shared with my mom, so thank you for sharing your cooking videos~~ I think I will keep up and be healthier by cooking my own food!!!
Awesome job! It's never too late to start learning to cook so don't feel bad about starting late or anything else! Improvement always takes a while but it's always worth it! ^^ Keep it up!
i love all your videos, they’re so therapeutic. thank you for everything, wish you the best
I don’t know why but when I saw her eating the egg whites that she had trimmed off, I suddenly wanted to cry. That image reminds me so much of my mom, always saving the best for my dad and us children whereas she never got anything nice for herself…
Thank you for adding definitions to terms!
Like highball [whiskey and soda]
I'm new to this whole thing!! So it definitely helps having someone to explain it!
OMG the dedication I'm speechless
You did survive though! You made it! Thank you for sharing your videos and husbentos! I always watch them when I’m really sad and they always cheer me up and make me feel better
I just finished my class, husbento is a nice way to de-stress ~
Your devotion is commendable. Thanks for the inspiration
madam your husband must be the luckiest man alive, a this point he is living the life we only see in manga! Loving Wife, beautiful kid, he's achieved Zen
my mom (a Peruvian immigrant, we live in the states now) bought a huge wok SOLELY for the purpose of making big batches of chaufa.
In Peru, before and during the world wars (91th-20th centuries) it just wasn't big enough to be valuable or threatening to either side, so it was kinda just a bystander to the wars, and as a result, saw a lot of East Asian immigration. So over time Peruvian cooking blended into the flavors and preparation methods the immigrants brought with them, which resulted in "Chifa" today's word for a kind of cuisine where Peruvian and East Asian food comes together. My grandfather and I went to one such Chifa restaurant (this kind of cooking replaces the western world's "Chinese Restaurants" they're easy to find, especially in big cities like Arequipa or Lima) last summer, and he told me that it's been run by 4 generations of one family now, and is over 60 years old, bc he remembers his parents taking him there when he was just a boy of 15.
Chaufa is our fried rice, simply put. and its INSANELY good!
In Spain we have something very similar called San jacobo, we put cheese inside, it's very good . I love your videos
I love the commentary on this one :D I love your videos so much Imamu, thank you for sharing them with us!!
Please take care of yourself 🥺💗! It’s okay to take a break sometimes
Usually these kind of videos bore me out, but I can watch your videos for hours and still enjoy them. Everyone has times when they just don’t want to do anything, and it’s okay. Take a break and do it when you want to. As long as you enjoy it🥰
your husband's coworkers are probably sooo jealous of his lunch every day hehe
I just recently found this channel and I love it! I have already tried some of the recipes and they were so gooood!! Looking forward to many more amazing videos!
A wow wife:) your husband must be very proud and happy to have you as a wife :)
your videos are so fun, calming, and addicting
Your daughter is so adorable! I almost died of cuteness when she was talking to you about making pancakes 😭
I miss the end of the week dinner you have with your beautiful family, but I understand we can't have it all all the time. I hope your weekend made up for your bad week. We all have bad days, it's part of life. We just learn from them and keep it going. Take care hun. God bless you and your precious family that I have grown to love like if you were my own. ❤❤❤
Oh no!!!😂 I couldn't believe it happened!!! A week Imamu couldn't survive 🤣😂
Simply gorgeous! So much love put into a week of bento boxes! I'm so happy I found your channel🤗🎈
Imamu: shows us how she applies batter and flour gracefully
Me: does the same thing but comes out with clumpy hands-
Your bentos look amazing, as always! I am inspired to try new things (like bitter melon). I hope you are able to rest and feel refreshed soon!
The new bento box is beautiful! I feel that square is easier to work with than oval, as well.
Oh to be Imamu’s husband and have plentiful fulfilling lunches every day 🥰
Thank you for always making wonderful videos, but if you ever are feeling down or tired, please don’t be afraid to take a break. Your health comes first and we will still be here to support you !! 💗💗💗💗
i want to cook like this for my husband one day
These meals are full of so much love and care! No wonder you got burnt out!
Remember to take care of yourself, and be kind to yourself!
And you still did a great job!
@Not RickRoll 👇 stop link spamming
Waaa this food looks so good! Imamu’s food most taste amazing!
Ps: Hope you have a better week :)
For cheese lovers put some cheese in the ham and egg cutlet, it’s absolutely DELICIOUS
I love your videos, watching them has been inspiring me a lot lately!
If the meal you made on Friday was you "running out of steam," then I call foul because it was super yummy looking and not at all a lazy meal!!! Great job~~~~
First off, thanks so much for making such great content and also staying so open and real - it's so appreciated to get a glimpse into your life. I hope you're doing well ♡
Secondly! It made me laugh that I watch these only to go home and cook the New Mexican food I always cook haha. But such great ideas!! I have to try sometime.
My wife Aoi makes the best Bento! From the husbands perspective, I can’t tell you how much her cooking means to me!
