Keep up the great work :D

Hi! I also came from Max's video. I feel like I can really relate to your experiences because I spent my childhood in countryside in Northern Japan. I wasn't born in Japan but from age 5 to 18. I was the only "foreigner" around, not knowing there was a kid like me in Wajima, Ishikawa! Watching channels like yours and Max's is sort of therapeutic for me. And I really wish I had chances to watch these type of videos when I was growing up, but as you know, there was nothing like this available back then! I just wanted to say 頑張って！応援してます！

Hi, Sachiko! My parents are Japanese and I was born and raised in… Brazil. Despite of being educated in Brazil and in the US, I do have… Japanese citizenship. That you deserve more than myself. I can completely relate to the fact to be the different one in the room. I’m very happy you nailed it!!! Cheers!

I recently came across Max's channel which lead me to your channel and I don't mind watching with the subtitles on . I enjoy learning about other people cultures. Most of my closest friends english is at minimum there second language.

Whoa!! This is way better than a sequel to something like ET or some other great movie. Thank you so much! So great to see you again! Max as well! So good, so so so good! Definitely needs to be made into a movie. You as yourself, for sure!

Hello, I came from Max's video. It was very interesting and insightful to learn about your upbringing in Japan with Western parents. I learned a lot and I love the message you are trying to spread. ''No matter the race, culture or background, we are all human.'' Thanks for sharing your personal experiences with us! I'm also smitten by your gorgeous beauty. Those eyebrows and eyes!! <3

I never comment on YouTube videos… but here it goes! I identified so much with everything you shared in your interview with Max. When I heard you grew up in 輪島 I was like OMG! I grew up like 30 minutes away from you! I’m maybe a little bit older than you but I wish I knew you when I was growing up, because it felt like nobody understood what I was going through. I wanted so badly to fit in and be “purely Japanese” back in those days. I too am very tall (was 176 cm by the time I was 14) and I swear I was the tallest girl anyone had ever met…oh and finding shoes and clothes that fit me was impossible! It’s really cool to find someone who’s had a similar experience. I also love your videos on bilingualism. I grew up only speaking Japanese but moved to the US when I was 15, and at this point my English is “stronger” than Japanese for me. But I’m trying my best to have my daughter grow up bilingual. The way you have mastered both languages is really impressive!! I would love to see more videos from you- great work!

Hi Sachiko-san, I happened to watch the footage created by Max. I was very impressed to know about your life. You are so positive, britght, nergetic and intelligent. It must have been very lonely for you to live as British child, adlosence in a small twon of Ishikawa-ken but you worked harder than anyone to be who you are now! So impressive! Please take your time and explore/enjoy a new stage of your life after graduation. 焦らずに、頑張ってくださいね！成功をお祈りしています！By the way, your smile is so beatiful！

I took a biology class at an American university. One day, the professor said to his American students, "This student from Japan cannot speak English properly. But he always gets top marks in his exams. You should study more".

Sachiko. As the product of a German mum, and a American father... being raised in Montréal in a French-speaking area... I feel your pain, and joys! You're awesome madam!

Just saw the video with all the views, please make more videos about different topics, I think the concept of growing up as a foreigner-yet-native is a very interesting perspective when seen from a "westerners" perspective. It's usually the other way around.

[bobbyw]

Hi Sachiko. Your story is so interesting and I enjoyed it so much. I can almost feel what you must have been through growing up. The fitting in part is probably the hardest part no matter whoever going through similar experiences. My only two cents that I like to say and not that you need any, is if they don’t accept you for who you are, then just go to a place who will. Thanks for the videos!

[etherdog]

Lovely interview and questions, Jazmine! If you are living an honest life, it is probably best not to worry about what you think other people think of you, as your presumptions are probably not that accurate (as academic studies have shown).

[realnizefilms]

I really liked the original interview and you’ve got a great channel too. I’m half and half so very interesting to hear these different perspectives.

[shitpostbotmin]

your story is so interesting! i hope you upload more

[gaweyn]

she is so pretty and has so cute facial expressions that I had to rewatch to read the subtitles

Hey Sachiko! As someone who got picked on as a kid because of his race (but didn't realise it then), your story about having your feelings of "unworthiness" and "less than" put into context and validated by your mum was really empowering to hear. Thank you so much for articulating so beautifully. I firmly believe that you are/will be a positive influence to many "Third Culture" kids growing up all over the world. I hope you keep speaking your truth and sharing whatever it is that you have to offer.
