anyone else come from buzzfeed?

... "No one talks." Well, yeah, they're walking by themselves, what did you expect? No one is just going to randomly yell while they are alone. Unless they are crazy.

Everything is weird.... just to remember you are in different country, different food, different cultures. I sorry but you should be polite and find everything interesting instead weird.

why would you go to a foreign country...and not know any of the language? :/

You will never find more nicer people then the Japanese.

Positive minded travelers describe new things as interesting while depressing/ negative minded travelers will describe them as weird.

Gotta find different actors for your show...people who enjoy travelling and exploring.

I'm travelling to japan again in a couple of days and was browsing around for last minute inspiration - wow did I not find it here. japanese customs are not "weird". the consequences of not booking or planning ahead (for you know... a roof over your head, weather, that kind of somewhat important stuff) is no one's fault but your own. this was nicely shot & edited but the content was painful to watch.

I honestly don't know why you guys didn't plan things in advance, like hotel rooms, umbrellas etc.. As for you characterization of Japan having "weird" rules, I don't know why you would expect things to be the same as where ever it is you come from (I assume somewhere in the US), it is a different country after all. Maybe a little more research into the customs in Japan should have been done, including a little bit of the language - even just a phrasebook would have been helpful, and I don't know why you didn't have one. Finally, you looked as if you hated being in Japan, based on the amount of complaining. I am sorry to say so, but that is my reaction to this video.

The hosts were really awkward

Such a friendly man at

That was a bit painful to watch. I don't see the point of complaining especially when you did not do your homework before going to a foreign country. for the most part Tokyo is very english friendly. Train stations are in both english and Japanese, so are the announcements. Know the weather / rainy seasons, best time to come to is fall or spring. Avoid summer as it is brutally humid.

People seem lovely there, how nice of that man to give away 2 umbrellas to a couple of strangers in need ^^

ah 'the umbrella experience' in Japan is pretty famous! Its nice that you could show this to interested people, becoz in Japan people often give you an umbrella to help you when your're in need. I love that deep respect and compassion in that country.

Man.... Those streets are so clean. America you find trash all over the place. Then America you hear people talking everywhere. Over there it's so quiet and soothing. Doesn't even sound boring. The streets looks so clean you could sleep on them. The lights are beautiful. Japan, Tokyo is DEFINITELY where I'm going when I'm older.

No other country like Japan, polite people, high tech & super clean...love it !

"Special Thanks to: the umbrella man" :D made me smirk hard

THe girl reminds me of the sadness emotion from the movie Inside Out

This was painfully motivating for me to go travel, can't be less prepared than this L0L.

I don't want to sound mean or like I'm having a stab at you both, but yikes smile. You're in a beautiful country with so many wonders! Yet all I hear from you guys are moans, and harsh words about Japanese culture and their apparent 'weird' rules. I'd love to be there seeing the treasures Japan holds! Unfortunately I'm not so lucky yet, but hopefully sometime in the future.
