Trash Taste

[AntonApple]

I like how everyone agrees that life action adaptations of anime are bad

[syryx]

boi Yuta you've found the gold mine of content, please make more of this.

Now make one where they appreciate Japanese culture. It would be interesting to see them react to the good parts about their country that they may often take for granted.

I lived in Japan for a couple of years and not being able to have a debit card was very frustrating. The thing about the credit cards is that you can usually use them to buy huge products but for small stuff a lot of stores don't accept credit mostly cash.

1:20 - Wait... what? The argument is that a mass produced stamp that you can buy at a dollar store is more difficult to fake than a personalized, hand-written signature? That makes no sense.

Even in the US, it's not much different with students being uninterested in raising their hand and asking questions. I've seen it a lot in colleges, where everyone in the entire class is always completely silent when teachers ask if there are any questions. There's usually only like one or two students that always ask questions and no one else does.

I love how these people reacted to their country being criticised. They were so calm. I know many people who would be rather upset if you dare to say sonething bad out their home country.
In university, we were even briefed how to speak to foreign students because there were multiple incidents with Chinese exchange students who started fights because they wanted to defend their country.

initially, i was nervous seeing the title and thumbnail (knowing what the trash taste boys tend to say in their vids lmao), but i like the clips you chose and the way everyone who was interviewed answered!

[TheDeceptiveHero]

I find it hilarious that even Japanese people think (their) live-action adaptions of anime are... creepy.

[statesminds]

Everybody complains a little about how things are where they live. It’s human nature. The Trash Taste boys also praise Japan a ton. Glad some residents even agree with some stuff though lol.

[MadLadOfCulture]

Yuta you should really be guest for Trash taste man. You can really share this with the boyz!

[itzolie]

It’s mind blowing to me that Japan “a technological powerhouse of the world” has yet to figure out debit cards. like, not to mention Japan is very much about efficiency and convenience... that’s literally exactly why the debit card was invented.

[AskJapanese]

Hahahah, hanko culture is getting be a LEGACY. And I never understand why Japanese people even invented "DEGITAL HANKO". It is just a png file which can stamp every documents for degitally. Should we make a video about Japanese mysterious social systems, maybe?

I think this is actually a very good point. Regardless of how tough school is or isn't in the US, I can see that more kids in elementary school are more able to talk to adults than older kids.

Even when I was in elementary school, I was much less shy than once I hit puberty.

As a westerner who hates anime getting turned into live action, its nice to hear a Japanese anime fan say the same thing.

I have a theory about why acting in Japanese media is so bad: theatre.

Theatre requires over-exaggerated acting because otherwise a large audience can't see what you're doing. Early British TV had the same problem. Watch an old episode of Doctor Who: the actors seem to be emoting for people fifty feet away through a darkened theatre rather than a camera five feet in front of them. Early American TV didn't have the same problem because it was mostly borrowing actors from the film industry, but Britain didn't have a big film industry before TV became popular. Add to that the fact that a lot of traditional Japanese theatre involved highly formalised and over-exaggerated gestures. Modern Japanese acting might not be as stiff as kabuki, but it comes from that tradition. Like so much of Japanese society, it hasn't changed with the times as much as it should.

I really liked the responses of the elder couple. You can see, they already had a lot of thoughts about everything and answered the questions in a critical way.

[raywa]

meanwhile we in poland have oral final exams, we also have something called "oral answer", the teacher asks you to come to his desk and ask you questions in front of the whole class on a daily basis, you are forced to talk even tho you might not like it

[DaakkuuYRS]

The problem with live action based on anime is that the expressions are based so much on anime voice acting, which turn them to be over the top and many time, indeed, bad. However, if you'll watch other dramas, such as Peroid Taiga drama you'll find great acting.
