the secret is just to talk slow and pause a lot to allow them to process it. so you start of saying hello or konichiwa. pause then slowly say what you want in Japanese or English. the first thing to do though is the 'aisatsu' - greetings. This puts them in the mindset right away that this person 'you' are a polite person. I speak fluent Japanese and lived here for 28 years. I follow the same rules. Start off polite and take it slow. This applies everywhere though doesn't it - You are nervous and they are nervous so just go slow. Japanese are a busy people but they love going slow.

This channel is turning into such a great resource for any baseball player interested in playing in Japan. The pros and cons are hard to wrap your head around when you've never been to the country, but this really shows a candid look into the everyday life of a pro baseball player.

We don’t have a “comic book store” culture like in the States. If you are looking for manga (Japanese comics), you can just go to regular bookstores at any train station mall and find most of them. Kinokuniya or Tsutaya would also be the place to go. Book-Off is also great for used comics and books. Akihabara specializes in Doujinshi (fan-written comics based on popular manga, anime, games, etc), figurines and games that are not quite suitable for 18 and under as you have experienced.

21:43 The reaction of trever strolling in 18+ zone by complete accident is priceless.

As for baseball I think "Major" is a good anime. As for the recent era we've got "One Outs" "Ace of Diamonds" and "Mix" If you want normal anime's, "Death Note" "Attack on Titan" "Demon Slayer" "Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood" and Japans obsession "One Piece". Love your slice of life vlogs. Keep it up. Godspeed!

For arcades, it sounds like you might like Round One. The Round One Stadium in Odaiba (Diver City) especially has lots of special physical and sports games/activities. The term for any game with a physically interactive element is “taikan game” (体感ゲーム). Basically though, you might have to go to quite a few arcades before you find your home. Arcades in Japan tend to specialize quite a bit, each catering to its own small niche. As for anime and game culture, Trader was a good find! I also like the big Mandarake in Akihabara. But also you should go to Nakano Broadway, really nice place to wander around. After that the area around Ikebukuro is also great with its own unique vibe. 👾

For anime start with either vinland saga, demon slayer jujutsu kaisen or something else on Netflix. The Pokémon, Dragon ball and Yugioh cartoons were most peoples first introduction to anime in the west. One reason why anime is so popular is because there are so many different genres so there is usually at least one anime for everyone. Anime usually has significantly more story and character development than western cartoons and is more like full blown tv shows rather than your classic cartoons. Hope this helps

Great video Trevor, it's been really fun to get a look into the life of a player in japan and just how much things differ from how things are in the US. On the note of anime, while I don't really have a series that I could recommend (since tastes differ from person to person), I think the appeal of anime, or at least to me, is that you can have any sort of story be made and since it's animation you can get away with a bit more in the way of emotions, storylines, and artstyles. There's a really broad range of what type of series you could get, from something adult oriented (in terms of story and it's themes), you can get series that are more aimed at kids (sort of like the cartoons you'll see on things like Nickelodeon), you can get a series that's set in a world that's not like our own (sort of like what you might see in some of the marvel comics), you can even get series that are deal with the ultra-mundane like a regular office worker. There are so many possibilities to what a story can be about, and thanks to it being animated you can make the world look exactly as you'd like. Maybe I did a poor job of explaining it but hopefully I was able to get the general gist of what I think the charm to anime is. Best of luck on your next game and can't wait to watch the next video in this great series

These videos are not only fun and interesting to see what a baseball player does in their free time in Japan, but very educational with how you break down pitching. Please keep these videos up and I wish you the best.

Yoshinoya so underrated!! Us LA kids totally understand that nostalgia!

The game at 19:00 is called Gundam EXVS2 XBoost, there are definitely some English guides on how to play but it's probably the most popular fighter/arena fighter in arcades, some places are just those games for multiple floors, simple-ish to learn but tricky as hell to master.

Trevor, the character you referred to as the "Pig Headed Swordsmith" is Inosuke from the anime Demon Slayer. If you were going to learn about Japanese anime, watching Demon Slayer would actually be the perfect place to start. It is extremely popular in America and in Japan. It's very well animated, good voice acting, good story, and it's got a lot of the common anime tropes. Think you would enjoy it and it would help you learn. (Please watch in Japanese with English subtitles though, especially since you want to learn the language.)

Trevor! You should go to Round1 for what you're looking for!

Also your thirst for knowledge and gaining experience is so inspiring, thank you for bringing me a little more life man.

i love Trevor bauer videos

19:34 wait until Trevor learns how much Yu-Gi-Oh has changed as a card game. He'll be stunned like many have. 20:53 if he wants baseball anime, Ace of Diamond and Major are two of the most popular ones internationally. But for anime in general there's so much to pick and there's something for someone out there, even for the lowest degenerates. People's tastes are different but there's these two movies called Your Name (Kimi no na Wa) and Howl's Moving Castle that are widely considered two of the most goated ever. Also there's Akira which popularized the Cyberpunk setting that's everywhere now from AAA video games to Hollywood. Also I think he should definitely go watch the high school national tournament at Koshien to see why the Hanshin Tigers get kicked out of their home ground every year in the peak of Summer. If not, the Kanto (a catch-all term for the greater Tokyo area) qualifiers for said tournament at Meiji Jingu is also a great alternative.

Congrats on the great start yesterday! Lets keep it going!

I suggest watching a anime called Ace of Diamond(Daiya no Ēsu). It’s a high school baseball anime, with two unique first year pitchers. One is a lefty with a unique delivery with a moving fastball, and the other is a righty with just high heat. It’s not only about the pitchers it’s about the high school baseball team as a whole. Great story with great characters.

20:57 starting off with anime I would recommend Full Metal Alchemist Brother Hood, Attack on Titan, or Demon Slayer if you want popular anime. Personally I would say to watch Diamond No Ace. It’s a baseball anime that focuses on a highschool team in Japan with the main character being a pitcher. Hope you give anime a try and find some shows you really enjoy.

Sorry to hear you've been feeling under the weather. Get better soon, if you were looking for a show to watch I'd highly recommend Cowboy Bebop or Samurai Champloo. 24 episodes for each with an easy-to-follow plot and an awesome soundtrack!

Trevor - kids are new to baseball and I stumbled across your videos on YT. I've continued watching because of your genuine love for the game. Best of luck to you

I guess if you want some Dave & Busters type place, try Round 1. That would be the closest equivalent. But if you’re going for more retro, usually small and old places. For anime, plenty of places. Ikebukuro (sunshine building) has the Pokémon center Mega. They also have a dedicated One Piece store there as well, and a bigger animate

I like watching your videos after living in Japan for over 20 years. I’m also a BayStars fan. I’ve played and coached baseball for over 40 years. I currently coach at the Native American school I work at in Arizona. You asked for anime to watch: anything from Studio Ghibli, currently Spy Family and Demon Hunter are popular. Komi Can’t Communicate is fun especially since I used to teach at Japanese high schools. がばれ！

Such an enjoyable video blog. Thanks Trevor.

As a scientist/researcher, I love watching your methodical approach to everything! I'd argue that your self-description would be more aptly described as "A 'nerd' that is also a pro baseball player!" haha, because even when you're 50+ years old and your playing days are over, the scientific approach to life will still be within you (e.g., maybe you'll be into bourbon and will want to double-blind taste everything to build up a great whiskey collection, or something w/ gardening, etc)

I grew up in a village of 2,300 in the mountains of New York. I loved/love baseball. My town is most famous for beating the Soviets in hockey, 4-3, but it had no summer baseball after age 13, and I went to the local private school, which had no team. My pitching coach was two pictures of Jim Gott gripping a four-seam fastball and a slider in a Sports Illustrated article. Despite that, my arm was good enough to walk on in college, but, GD, I am jealous I didn't have access to videos like this.

Japan looks so awesome

Love your content!!! I’m impressed by your analytical approach to the game!

I love that you embrace Technology Trevor. I loved playing baseball, but blew my knee out when I was young and still trying to play after HS. I have been around Technology my whole life and that has been my career for 22 years now, so it is cool seeing how much you mix tech into you day.

It's still kinda odd to me that when your in Japan you could just find a Pro player just walking the streets. It's super rare to just see an MLB player in the wild in the US.

Regarding arcades in japan, they aren't catered for families, so they don't have a wide variety of games and tend to be focused on the sort of games they offer, except for crane games, which are just everywhere. If you are looking for music games like DDR, akihabara is the most concentrated area with those games, with game panic on the corner, leisureland 2 on a higher floor of the building where you got overwhelmed with the loud sounds upon entering the doors and GIGO 3rd(GIGO 3号館）, which is a different GIGO outlet you entered(iirc it is GIGO 1st that you went inside). For a more general spread of games, Hey! arcade in akihabara has the biggest spread of games in akihabara that I know of, with bullet hell games, gundam and fighting games on the higher floors. Otherwise, the aforementioned GIGO 3rd is a good place too, the top floor on that arcade has a floor with only "retro" game, with the word "retro" being used rather loosely as these games are retro to japanese audience, but I suspect these would be games you are more familiar with, like Daytona driving simulator and time crisis. As for anime to start off with, it would be great if you would mention what sort of genres you are interested in. IMO, the greatest strength of anime is wide variety of quality stories that are told. If you are looking for something more akin to Dragon Ball Z, the modern day equivalent would be My Hero Academia(aka Boku no Hero Academia), with a very distinct american influence in that anime. For something a bit more fantastical, I would recommend mushoku tensei, its the first popular series of its kind that basically kickstarted an entirely new genre of anime in recent memory, where there started to produce a lot more anime about the MC reincarnating into another world. Finally, my personal pick would be Vivy: Fluorite's Eye Song, an anime about a songstress android attempting to change history 100 years into the future where humanity is wiped. The reason why I pick this is because I think its criminally underrated in the anime community currently and I know of a friend who wasn't into anime but enjoyed this when I was doing a watchalong with my friends. Cheers, love your content, as a nerd from Singapore. :)

I really love the players messing with your video :) different than what I've seen from other Japanese player / team videos. Love they have a sense of humor and can express it.

Trev! Just watched your Seibu Lions game, you’re tipping your pitches; almost all fastballs you’re holding your glove at your belly button, almost all off-speed pitches you’re holding your glove closer to your belt. We’re talking about an inch of distance at most. Check the video from behind the mound and you’ll see off-speed pitches where the glove overlaps the belt line.

Thank you for uploading this video and I really enjoy it. translators in internet are getting better and better but I`m very glad to say that i started learning English and enjoyed watching baseball through you Trevor!

Trevor, I’m super type A perfectionist too, not to your degree… I am a bit older though, and the one thing I can say is give yourself grace… you are doing a great job introducing new training techniques to all athletes and you are being a good representative of MLB to Japan and the world. What I love most is your approachability and the inspiration you give to up and comers… I know there are trolls and “haters” but people grown learn and get better… let’s hope they do too! You have a ton of fans and we all believe in you! Also, really looking forward to learn more about glove construction. I was a softball catcher and went between two gloves and never knew how much thought went into construction! 頑張って！　Hope that was correct!

I really want you to succeed there so that you can stay there forever. let's go !

Trevor, the biggest arcade in Japan is called Round One! It has all the things you were trying to find there 👍

Hi Trevor! I heard you wanted to get up to date on Anime culture and I hope you take the time to read this. 2 of which I would recommend would Be Demon Slayer and My Hero Academia! These both will surely keep you entertained and would highly recommend. After watching these, if you get more invested into anime, I’d HIGHLY recommend Jujutsu Kaisen! Hope you enjoy these titles !

You are the man Trevor. Don't worry, you will get back to being the dominating pitcher that you are. New country and new system. A lot to take in. Keep doing what you do. You've got this.

Keep ‘‘em coming!

Subscribed a few days ago. Really like your take on baseball and pitching. Now I'm hooked....man bear pig was a great episode. Big South Park fan too.

4 things: 1) nice game against the Lions Sat. 6/2; 8 strong, boss, 2) Glad you started using DeepL, 3) can't believe you didn't find Radio Kaikan in Akihabara; you can find everything you were looking for there, including your cards, 4) "what's in the box"segment really needs a jingle.

In terms of anime exposure these are all just ideas Shopping and looking around: . There are tons of bookstores that have manga. Places like kinokuniya should have English . Harajuku and Asakusa (While both places do have anime stuff in them they’re mostly just really fun places to walk through although they can get crowded occasionally) Anime History(if you want a super deep dive): Kyoto International Museum (It’s far from Yokohama so plan accordingly) Ghibli Museum Suginami Animation Museum Anime’s to watch: Demon slayer (cause it’s a fun anime and also got lots of merch like the boar man you saw) Ace of Diamond(good baseball anime) Master(good baseball anime)

How do you know when to adjust your grip verses adjusting pitching mechanics. My guess is that you analyzed your mechanics and they were sound so you went straight to slow motion of the grip. Let me know. Thanks

Watched the 10k game the other day against the Lions. Pitched a very good game I thought.

I find myself waiting for these weekly.

Keep at it Trevor! Fun blogs!

Come on Trevor, you really need to talk to someone, maybe a teammate, and get invited to a local Japanese car meet up. We all need to see that.

I actually like that rule about signing on team trips, keeps guys from feeling required to do it and the players can put the blame on the team and not look bad to their fans, I like that a lot from the teams

I stayed in a hotel just around the corner from that dealership. Lost my mind when I saw the Pagani!

The anime thing is something that you can't really just dive into because it's very easy to fall into the worst parts of it. You'll feel like you need a shower. My suggestion is to start by watching a few. Your dragon balls. Your Narutos. The mainstream stuff and then branch out from there. There's pretty much an anime for everything so keep that in mind. I would suggest an anime called Diamond no Ace. It's a baseball anime about a young high school pitcher. Very well animated with fun characters. Gives a little insight into the high school standard of baseball which is rather intense.

I really appreciate your channel, teaching people about Japanese baseball.

The lambo you liked at 13:50 looks like a Miura. Very similar body style to the Ford GT40

Trevor, I could just watch you walk around Japan like a lost rich kid all day. Did you say you're getting a Koenigsegg Agera? My boss owns a McLaren P1, 2x Turbo Ferrari 458, Big G Waggon? I'm in Houston. Love ya bruv. I love your work ethic. Your baseball IQ is unfathomable. Once you get adjusted, I can see you in their Sawamura running.
