The perfect channel to learn about Japanese culture and history in your spare time, during your walk to school or work, and when you are cooking or doing house chores.

Not only will I be covering the topics in this main channel, but also some topics that you will only be able to enjoy in the sub-channel, like answering questions I receive, and my opinions towards some of the comments.

I love how the traditional summer outfit says "I don't care".

[purpleicicles]

Kudos to your wife for choosing such great kimono and accessories - must be nice to have a personal stylist, Shogo! Colourful kimono definitely suit you!

[AznFighting]

Yayyy finally a men's kimono video. There aren't many videos about men's kimono even though I'm quite interested in it (especially Hakama, Haori, and Haori Himo because I think they look really impressive) so thank you for fulfilling our wish! 🙇‍♂️ The Juban with the lions are so cool! It's a pity you have to hide them 😢 Thanks everyone for the very informative and fun video and thank you Shogo for being so enthusiastic even though you aren't interested in fashion. I really appreciate it! 😃

[tqtownsend]

The first yukata really struck me as an example of how nothing is ever really new. I bet most people think that the idea of a celebrity walking around with a T-shirt that says "I don't care" or "IDGAF" is so hip and new. But 250 years ago Ichikawa Danjuro was doing exactly that. He was a meme before memes were a thing!

[portalkey]

One of the reasons why I love your channel is you get to produce content that I'd never thought of looking into before, like men's kimono!

[encryptedprinter]

I know it probably seems like a small thing to you. But hearing you, your wife and others pronounce Japanese words in your normal cadence is really nice. The dropped sounds, blended sounds, emphasized sounds. It feels more natural than the "stage voice" that most media have. It's always pleasant when I get to spend ~25 minutes listening to friends talk about their culture in a way that doesn't feel like classroom instruction.

[snow]

Kimono look so sharp on both men and women. I wish we could see it more often in day to day life. In North America it really feels like the most easy/cheap/comfortable option is best but there's no denying that dressing well is so much better!

[Mnogojazyk]

I am really impressed with the winter kimono. The gold coat really enhances the brown color of the under kimono. I also like the spring kimono with the blue circles and semicircles.

[tenkovito]

That winter Kimono / Haori looks amazing, so stylish too.

[daisyrosario]

I must say that you have a unique way of portraying your culture so vividly!
Out of all content creators that are Youtubers living in Japan
You are in the top 5!
Many blessings Shogo & family! 🌠

[mochaandmuses]

I love this! I grew up on Okinawa (my dad was US Military) and absolutely fell in love with Japanese and Okinawan culture. Thank you so much for putting these together. It makes me so nostalgic. You and your culture is beautiful! ありがとう

[jozefkozon]

It always reminds me of old polish tradition of Long tied sashes. Usually colorfull and Wide, witch four diferent colours, so you can have one distinct show, if ocasion is due. The way they are tied reminds me of Obi so much.

[moonstonemama]

I think I liked the winter kimono best too: the different layers, textures, and accessories make it visually very interesting, but most of all I liked Shogo's reaction over being dressed up, and experiencing how these different looks feel. It was so genuine, and very endearing to watch.

[danielacs]

The haori himo is such a interesting accessory!
The beauty of kimono is always so impressive... It's so creative but sober at the same time. 👘✨💙

[marthmallow]

Oh wow! I just came back from watching “How Kimono and Yukata are worn and the 4 main differences!” You and your team are great at making these videos fun and informative :) ♡

[Hysube]

You guys are awesome, and your personalities are wonderful, I love your content and I enjoy your very neutral view of your own culture, you not only talk about the great qualities but also the bad qualities as well. Being truthful and transparent is the best virtue that a human being can have. I love your honesty! Keep the best content coming, I appreciate your hard work and am grateful for an understanding of your culture

[hollish]

Your enthusiasm and interest in Japanese culture have inspired me to learn mare about Japan. My primary interest in Asian culture is around food. You have made me desire to have a more complete understanding of the cultures. Many thanks!

[lukmanibrahim]

I've also worn a men's Kimono at Blok M Plaza, South Jakarta, because there was a Japanese samurai exhibition at the mall

[Caelum_NLD]

I really like the extra information like the names of the items, historic knowledge of the marks on the kimono like the summer yukata's coloration and marks going back to that of the famous kabuki artist. O, and I must admit I clapped a lot of times when the crowd cheer effects happened :) I really like you guys' style of presenting. You all are by far the best Youtubers style and presenting wise, easily. And great English by the way, Harumi san, Tomoko san! Thank you all for your continuous hard work to let us learn about and enjoy Japanese culture!

Edit: I really love each of the kimono. That Haori looks awesome :O Tomoko san was right that the kimono looked great on you, Shogo san.
