What I (Don't) LOVE about Japan 🇯🇵🗻 ASMR Bedtime Show

[amyzofia]

My favourite videos of yours are the ones where you just talk. Definitely my favourite source of ASMR on YouTube.

Wow! Earlier this week I moved back to Finland from Sapporo, where I studied for a semester at Hokkaido University. This is a great video to listen to, I'm eager to hear what you think and will reply to this later with my responses and thoughts!

[gwilly]

your directness in your analysis while remaining respectful was incredibly refreshing...and relaxing!

[abrechter]

I totally resonate with the point you made about japanese story telling. For example, in most Ghibli movies the plot has almost a blind trajectory. Propelled only by time itself and not actions. Idk if that makes since or is accurate.

Now I want one of these for every country you visit

[zesuper]

Normally I can’t sit through a video like this, it is background noise or sleepy time ASMR but this was quite interesting and relaxing!

As a Parisian, i feel what you're saying about being ripped off for food 😂
I visited Japan in 2017 and I have to agree with lots of your points. Food is so excellent (traditionnal for the most part) that even the best mcdonalds i ever ate was in Japan!

I think the stereotype of Japanese sincerity, directness, and naiveté, embedded within a strongly collectivist culture is based on a measure of truth. I really enjoyed your observations and analysis of Japan. Thank you so much for sharing them with us.

The 90s was actually a time of immense recession after the economic bubble burst. Most of the nostalgia you might be experiencing is specifically from the 70s and 80s, the intense peak of economic affluence.

I've lived here for 7 years and it's a phenomenal place to visit and live in, but your points about the cityscapes is well made. Some people find it awe inspiring, but I just see it as one eye sore after another. Luckily local transportation is incredibly well run, so even from some of the most intensely populated urban areas you can escape to some nice smaller suburbs and some larger natural parks or small mountains.

I love the bedtime shows. Its like a relaxing conversation with a friend

[AmIUnderHere]

Wow I fell asleep in four minutes, excellent job! It
Usually takes me an hour, thank you so much I haven't had a good sleep in months, thank you from the bottom of my heart.😍

[Libramaster]

Please tell me you have a Playlist of all videos of you talking? Your voice relaxes me so much!

[NotGettinAny]

I don't watch any podcasts or audiobooks or anything like that but i just love the different things you cover in these.

[ladypalerider]

I see what you mean about Japan being Autistic as a whole. Could not have said it better myself 😮

[justaway]

The immense pressure from the society would be too much for me

[cabbagewater]

Make more videos where you talk! Its the best ❤

[richardsmusic]

You're the best asmr talent on your channel.... keep doing videos

[wheatstalkers]

Thank you for your efforts, thank you for your channel, thank you for narrating your audiobook! We appreciate you! Thank you!

I don't travel much due to heavy anxiety but I would like to try to be better on this. So I ask you - when you have gotten anxious or overwhelmed in cities or during travel, what do you do to help yourself during that feeling? Love your videos ❤

"Tonkatsu" ...I've traveled to Japan a few dozen times and only recently has the FX rate become crazy good due to COVID, inflation and other economic factors (and it's getting better). I was there for a month earlier in the year and stunned by the exchange rate, so I loaded up on electronics, camera lenses, etc., that I would never otherwise buy. Even real-estate is a steal now.
