Do you have statistics on how many Japanese women have not dated anyone at
all? I heard that number is growing as well, so if we add these numbers
together, we'd find out that almost nobody dates Japanese guys anymore,
right? Sounds perfectly logic to me.
+Patrik Johansson I think that this is a bit of an overhyped subject prone to exaggeration. Last year the theme was of "carnivore" women devouring timid "herbivore men everywhere, 10 years ago it was women selling themselves on compensated dating left right and centre, 15 years ago it was women selling their pants for vending machines. Now the hype is "no one is doing it".Truth is, most people are normal most of the time, and these urban myths spread partly because it is hard for people outside Japan to disprove it, and Japanese themselves get a little swept up in the media hype and believe it, even if it is not true for them, or ANYONE they know...
sorry Hiko, but I have to throw one more point in your equation (sp?)... of
those 1.5% of foreigners living in Japan and those 13 million visitors,
they are not all male! I did'nt look up any numbers, but I am pretty sure
that a good number of these are females...
"I thought the foreigner had shoved me, so I got angry and kicked him many times," one of the suspects was quoted as telling police. Links to articles/videos ...
+Ryuk 人 well the video deals with topics on Japan. So it's helpful to use Japanese words instead of regular English words. That way the audience learn some different vocabulary. But I hear what you are saying. I know there are foreigners who live in Thailand complain when Thais refer to them as farang. Even their wife's or girlfriend's family would call them farang instead of calling them by name. So this is something people will need to get accustomed to.
+Wayne Samuel well some or most people are deeply offended by the word Gaijin maybe they are thinking of it as saying that 'You are an outsider' I don't get why foreigners get angry its just a contraction of word "Gaikokujin"

Fantastic segment, guys! I have a question that I've been seeking an
answer to for nearly two years now, although it admittedly may be too
unique for either of you to answer. I'm a 47-year old man who didn't
finish law school but nonetheless once briefly worked as a legal researcher
and subsequently also acquired a great deal of editing (and legislative
analysis) experience as a policy analyst. My question to you, therefore,
is this: is it realistic for me to even think of applying for work as a
(Unilingual) Native English Legal Editor or Legal [Language] Checker with a
Japanese Law firm? Another way to put the question, I suppose, is this:
how competitive is the job market for such a position amongst gaijin in
Japan? Regardless of whether or not you can help me, I really appreciate
your video discussions. :)
+Robert Ryan That's a good question. I personally don't have a lot of information about that job market in Japan, but you might want to pose this question to the people at //www.swet.jp/
This doesnt really make any sense. A foreigner is a foreigner regardless of
what "background" or country they are from. Anybody from outside of Japan
will be regarded as a foreigner in Japan (sometimes even Japanese-Americans
experience this). Plus, even other asians stand out among Japanese like
sore thumbs... Just my analysis. ._.

How to Get Started Acting and Modeling in Japan! | Gaijin Guide on Agencies
How to be Big in Japan! / How to Join the Japanese Entertainment Industry When I first came to Tokyo, I was pretty clueless on how to even get into the gaijin, ...
+Kate Libby Gaijin agencies will register people of all shapes, sizes, age, whatever! They never know what a production company might require for casting. Your ability to get a job will just depend on what kind of shooting is going on.
+Liunyan Being multilingual no matter what language is always good. Better if you speak the languages surrounding the location you're in.That being said, I think the most used language you'll be using in Japan is Japanese, so as long as you can speak Japanese fluently or at least somewhat, I think you'll do great :))
I speak Italian, Russian, English, Spanish, a little bit of French, and I'm studying Japanese and Korean now; do you think it is ok? ahaha Thank you for answering my question :)
+Liunyan More languages you can speak and if you can speak it fluently, the more versatile as an actor you can be. You can do more jobs.Imagine a job where you have to act as a woman from Thailand, if you know how to speak Thai, your chances for landing that role increases A LOT.Being able to speak Japanese in Japan to be able to work is kinda obvious. You need to be able to communicate.
Japan: Monster Hunter Goods
Just a tour of the most recent Monster Hunter goods we have in Japan. Always news stuff, and even more (amazing!) stuff on the Capcom official web shop.
Do they have a internet store where some one like me from Sweden might be
able to buy stuff from them? if they do please inclued it in the
description, I dont click on links in the comments sins the gamer
Markeplier came out and said that there is a new way to scamm youtubers to
get virus and other crap into one's computer or laptop they steal a famus
youtubers name and picture and put links in the comments that has virus and
trojan programs in them to mess up one's computer with and then blame it on
the youtuber who name they used to post the link with.
+Kazuma DoubleIce If you don't have a friend willing to ship for you from Japan you're most likely better off going through one of those middle-man Japanese websites that are willing to purchase the item and ship it to you...granted the prices tend to run higher than average and it is really only worth it if you really want the product and there is little to no chance you can purchase it through a larger online source such as eBay or something =/ I even know a couple of people that make a living flying to Japan just to flip merchandise because importing can become such a hassle for the average consumer. (Risky business...) But hey! EU and NA Nintendo and Capcom know their customers best right? We don't want cool knickknacks, we all only care about the game, amirite? No one in their right mind would ever "waste money" on such things...sarcasm
You know.... you could probably make some money if you set up a paypal
account, take down names and the merchandise they want, and ship it to
them. I bet a lot of people would be down for that.
+Vita1ized Sounds nice at first, but with the organization of it all, then considering the effort put into sending the packages, and also since customs are gonna get in the way of it the whole process wouldn't work out. Not to mention that it would probably be illegal, since he's reselling the merchandise on a broad scale
