I know what you mean. I mean the 2000s are basically still ongoing really!? I guess they only refer to it now as the time between 2000 and 2010. I was born in 1995, so my time when I actually started to properly remember stuff was near the middle and end of the 10s and onwards, but I refuse as well to believe that we can call that time retro. Apart from the fact that the smart phone/tablets hadn’t properly come out yet, it’s basically no different to now. Film and TV wise there’s very little difference, but the 90s and 80s ‘definitely were’. I guess it’s just meant more for the people who are in their early teens now, or those who have truly relinquished this time to history now. I guess this must be a bit like how people felt after WW1 when it was starting to be taught in schools as ‘history’.😓 Something’s are inevitable I guess.

I've stayed in my grandparents place a lot as a kid in the early 2000's. They lived next to the ocean in a really nice neighborhood in Yokohama. We'd catch fish in their boat and grandma knew the best way to cook it, playing on my PS2, the arcades, the 7/11 trips, the summer BBQ and fireworks.

Every Japanese person knows that the late 90s and the early 2000s were some of the most depressing times in modern Japan lol. Especially if you were a teenager or a young adult. Low employment, school bullying, weird and unsettling crimes, young people giving up on life, suicides etc all skyrocketed around this time. I feel like this is when mental health really started to become a problem in Japan. You started to see a bit of societal decay around this time among the younger generation. The 80s and the early 90s was the golden time of Japan, but the late 90s and early 2000s was something else. Its such an interesting era in Japan. There were tons of subcultures and trends created by the younger generation in this era that came to define Japanese pop culture, yet it seemed like it was kind of a coping method among teenagers and young adults. For some reason, the Gen Z generation in western countries today really reminds me of the young Japanese people during this time. Btw, the high rate of suicides, single adults, hikikomori, extreme political spectrums(both right wing and left wing) in Japan today are usually the generation that were teenagers and young adults in this era(now in their late 30s-40s). Also, its this generation thats partly responsible for Japan’s decreasing population. Something to think about if you are a Gen Z in other countries. If you think the social problems in Japan today is bad, its nothing compared to what it was 20 years ago. Atleast were improving in some parts though.

@@BossMandotnet Late 90s and early 2000s teens and young adults, not 80s. The main similarity I see is the Nihilistic approach to their every day life in general. I understand that every generation has it and its not right to stereotype a whole generation, but Nihilistic type of attitudes seems alot more apparent in Gen Z compared to millennials in western countries. Using negative themes in popular trends, creating “coping” methods and escapism, and being more aware of mental illness seemed to become more apparent in the west among Gen Z. Japan saw this drastic change within the youths in the late 90s, when it was compared to the previous “bubble generation”(the young adults that experienced the golden age of 1980s Japan), and realized that the youths of the late 90s/early 2000s had a more negative approach to life. Even within the subcultures they created or identified with had a bit of negative undertone to it. I dont really like using anime as an example when talking about real Japan, but if you’re interested in it, you’ll kind of realize that anime produced in the 80s-early 90s is a bit different compared to the ones that were released in the late 90s. Mainly the themes and storylines became alot more complex and not every character was a “happy go lucky” type. Storylines that had a bit of dark negative undertone became popular and I think the reason for it is because the youth somehow resonated with it. Same thing with music. Alot of popular Japanese songs in the late 90s had lyrics talking about negative things such as suicides and loneliness, OR had an extremely “in your face” positivity themes that was obviously created for the listeners to cope with. Very different from the warm, cheerful Citypop music from the 80s. Maybe the fact that Japanese economy was going bad in the late 90s+the rise of internet and digital entertainment had something to do with it. People’s attitudes and their view on life can be influenced by societal change, so Im sure this had some affect to the younger generation. I also heard before that Nihilistic themed novels, poems, and plays became quite popular among the youths back in the late 1920s Japan, when the economy was going bad and militarism was rising. I guess these things make a comeback once in awhile.

Seriously, in Europe IF you find one there's a fat lady sitting there, looking at you sideways so you pay 50ct to use it, and it still smells of urine in there. Which is probably why many europeans chose to save their 50ct and instead pee inside elevators or on escalators, so it smells of urine there, too.

The first time I went to Japan was in 2005, right after high school. It was the perfect age to go--I still had a childlike wonder, had spent my school years studying Japanese and watching anime, and being able to finally be in the place I'd only seen on a TV screen and in books was absolutely magical. That said... the only major appreciable difference between then and now is that I didn't have a smartphone to rely on to figure out where I was going. No google maps to instantly get the train route, or to know where a restaurant was or how to find my way around the neighborhood. There was some mystery to that. But otherwise, Japan hasn't changed that much. These videos may feel more nostalgic because of the way they were shot but I promise you if you go to Japan now you'll find a place just as wonderful as you see here.

I was born in '87, so I was a teenager during these years. I remember them so fondly. You're right about all the things you said. It did seem like a simpler time, and there was such a different vibe with the technology. I remember playing video games for a couple hours on an 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, or 64-bit system, then getting tired of it and going outside with my friends. We had fun playing video games, but they weren't such an all-consuming thing. We had to go over to each other's houses to play (none of us were pc gamers), and that was really quaint and fun. In fact, by the time I was a teenager, I really didn't even play video games. And that was pretty common. Phones were for texting girls or finding out where everyone was meeting up. The most technological things I owned were a flip phone, a discman, and a car from the 90's. Even when I was a kid, it seemed like no matter how cool the technology was, eventually we would put it down, and it would give way to 'old-fashioned' things like conversation, throwing pecans at each other, making swords out of things, and making up our own games. It really was an interesting bridge between the old world and the new one. And I know I've used the word quaint already, but sitting next to your friends playing something with pixel sprites on a Super Nintendo really was so quaint, and simple, and magical.

Before 9/11, the mentality was more optimistic. Also, people were less technology-focused and internet centered. There was also hardly any internet advertising except for banner ads. So I guess in some ways, the 2000's was actually really different compared to nowadays.

Wow, I'm jealous. I wish I could have visited there in the 80s and 90s. I didn't make it there until the mid-2000s. But it was still before the smartphone era, so it still felt like a vastly different world compared to today. I feel like with smartphones, people figure out how to do everything by themselves on their phone. Before that, you relied on human interaction a lot more. So it was still a great time to meet people.

I lived in Japan in the 2000s. This was actually quite comforting, I miss those days.

What was it like back then in the early 2000s by comparison to what you believe it’s like now? Was it better then or now? As it seems like some things have definitely improved, but the country still isn’t as open as it was apparently in the 80s. Also what was your eventual decision for moving away? A lot of people leave Japan eventually for various reasons and I’ve always been curious about those different cases as to why it seems that the majority eventually leave. Very few seem to actually remain forever, and although I don’t know what my future holds, I would certainly like to give it a try but I can’t be sure of whether or not I too would become home sick and want to return to my home country.

Very heartwarming seeing clips of everyday life

even though I've never been there, it feels something like home when watching a 2000s video

My dad describes his couple weeks he spent in Japan in his early 20's with a heavy dose of nostalgia. It was this time frame, very early 2000's, and him and his longtime best friend took a vacation to Taiwan that ended in one redirected flight into the land of the rising sun. Their plan was to spend the night there and then catch a plane back to Canada in the morning. Plans change. My dad's friend had been an exchange student in Japan for a few years in high school, so he could speak decent Japanese and had friends there that he knew quite well. One of said friends said, after visiting a barbeque shop, that they should come out to the base of the mountain range, he had to show them something. My dad says he remembers the first time he saw a Nissan Skyline GTR was at the base of that mountain, the name of which he doesn't remember. He said he flipped out because of course, it's the god car from Gran Turismo. He says there were tons of cars in a gas station parking lot down there. Mostly young guys just hanging out, showing off their rides. For a car guy who had only ever seen some of these cars in magazines and on a 25 inch bubble screen TV coming out of a PS1, it was incredible. He says he never saw any actual racing, just spirited driving up and down the mountain, so no crazy Initial D tall tales, but it was really amazing to see nonetheless. This was before the west had any idea about Japanese car culture at all, so it was quite eye opening, he says. Him and his friend had so much fun that Saturday night that they decided to stay in Japan for a few more days. A few days eventually turned into two weeks, and my dad ended up working Christmas day because he took way more time off. He still remembers not ever regretting it. He recalls the strange feeling of being on another planet in a way that no other country had made him feel so severe. The timing was just perfect, to the point where his own countries technology and society were extremely similar to the one he was in, but neither really knew what the other was up to on that deep level we do today.

I know what you mean. It almost feels like Japan has affected the essence of the Stalgia the most. Both idiots old and new architecture, it’s filmed in animation media and the people themselves. I think it comes down to a lot of the desire to return to the simpler ways of the past where things just made more sense, as well as that desire to get back the excitement for the future that existed during the apparent 80s and early 90s bubble. I would love to have been in Japan during those days. So much is still yet to be fully appreciated by the West as to what happened in Japan during that time, but I’m still happy in the time I am in now, and would love to see where the country could be heading once again if it starts to open itself up properly. I intend to visit Japan someday, and even if I am never able to live there fully, a piece of my heart will always be there.

My grandpa lived in there at this time. Good to have a small piece of what he felt and saw. Truly amazing.

I've never been a part of it there, but still feel nostalgic about it.

I am grateful to have lived in the early 2000’s. Such a wonderful time to be alive! So many changes, and the old world was barely hanging around us.

当時の映画のシーンがチラホラで懐かしい… ちょうどこの頃映画業界で働いていたんだけど 実際はHDへの過渡期でビデオ映画では720pが主流になっていた気がするので 世に出回る映像は放送がSD、映画がHDみたいな棲み分けだった。 仮面ライダー555とかの時代だったのでこの映像ほど古めかしい雰囲気ではなかったかな。 （フィルム映像が多いようだけど実際は淘汰されつつあったと思う） 都内の町並みは今とあまり変わらないかも。 失われた30年とか言われるが 今ほど極端な格差は感じられなかったな もしかしたらみんな貧乏だっただけかもしれないけど。

Japan is still a fun place. I lived there from 2015 until 2020. People talk about dying economy etc etc. But I learned to ignore those negativity. It maybe true or not. It doesn't matter to me. During my time I learned the good and bad about Japan. I met lots of great people , made some good friends with whom I still keep in touch. Everyday living in Japan was an adventure. Everything is so convenient. Almost every month a new shop or some event will open up and I will always find something I never knew about before. I also liked taking random walks around the city.

As someone who's from 80's I think is more nostalgia from our personal perspective, and young "simple" times, my dad used to said that it was never a good times in the past, is only that as children and adolescents we saw it as a innocent and playful perspective (my dad was from the 50's so he hear many people always saying, nah the 30's/40's/50's were better and simple times that the nowadays 60's/70's/80's/90's....

As someone who lived in Japan from 2006 to 2009, and again from 2012 until 2021, this is deeply nostalgic.

I first visited Japan in 2005 and lived there from 2006-2007 and went back several times. This is how I remember everything.

I grew up in japan in the 70’s and 80’s it was a fun time. I would later fly missions back and forth from cali to Japan in the 2000’s it was still just as amazing. Now it’s my permanent home I will never leave.

I could watch hours worth of this. The early 2000s really were magical.

How strange that this video can elicit a sense of nostalgia and longing from me , specially since I’ve never been to japan. I guess that’s the power of a well edited film.

I love how there's always something going on in every corner of tokyo. No matter where you go there's something to do and people to interact with.

This video bgm,thank you！

Back in 98/99 we had an exchange student here in the US with us from Japan, when we graduated high school in May of 1999, he had to go back home. But the following summer in 2000 I got to stay a few months with him in Kyoto, some of my most fondest memories. This brings back MAJOR memories, thanks for this.

i miss the 2000s in Japan felt like simpler times, everything became painfully clear after 2011. I live in the USA with my husband and 2 kids now, I graduated from medical school and now i’m a pediatrician. I had a nightmare i remember the horrible disaster of the Tohoku earthquake and i was a mere medical student. I miss simpler times but i’m happy for my loving husband and lovely children.

I lived in Japan in 2000s, even though I have left physically, my heart is still there, in that era. It was a struggle, but it shaped me for who I am, and where I am going.

I’m now 22 yo, and was born in september 2000. When I watch this video, I really want to be born in late 80’s or early 90’s, because it was truly the best time to grow up. A balance between the technological, modern world and the “old” world. Today, everything is digital an online and real relationships are not that common anymore. At the moment we are oversaturated by the modern world.

what's frightening, and pessimistically sad, is that many teenagers or adults there surely died by commiting suicide, a dark part of japanese modern culture

the 2000s still feel very futuristic yet old at the same time. It's hard to describe it

When I was in college in the late 90s, I used to look at my parents pictures in the 70s and thought about how simple their lives must have been. And now it's more than 20 years since college and I still think about those times as just recent past. I haven't really felt the changes that much since I have been experiencing it and not really paying attention. But this video shows me how different people and places looked back in the 2000s. It's insane!

I became aware of the shift in 09 and saw it happen in real time(the 90's ended in 2006 and it only got worse) by the time 2013 had rolled around we were officially in the 2000's and man was it not a fun transition; the messed up part is that it's still better than now by a long shot. And of course large chunks of asia, most of europe, and south america all were still in the late 90's early 00's until about 2 years ago and I never got to visit and have a little time travel event. Oh well, worst comes to worse we can always just move to small towns in Japan where it's still the 00's and safe; Beppu is a great example

I know what you mean. The 90s didn’t end u til a few years after the millennium. This era seems to have started in 2013, by then everyone had a smartphone and instant internet

This was what I remember fondest about discovering anime, otaku things and Japanese culture thanks to Adult Swim and Toonami, searching up videos online and seeing japanese movies made in this era. Being in my adolescence, obviously that shounen genre very much resonated with me. Its cool to look back at this footage and remember learning about japanese customs, the aesthetic prevalent at the turn of the century, it was so foreign to me but now with maturity and age its become way less "far away" to me.

Lovely video. Lived in Japan from 2008 - 2010. The footage includes shots from the 1990s and even a few from the 1980s. But otherwise nostalgic.

My first time in Japan was on 1996 i'am still here, country and peoples changed alot... But this is not only Japan i guess. Miss the old days.
