Japan’s dangerous side is not something you hear a lot about. Sure, you hear about Yakuza and earthquakes, but you're also told Japan is the safest county on earth. Well, there was an easy way to test that. I was in Tokyo, the world's largest megacity, and decided to check out Sanya, the most notorious neighborhood in the city. The different parts like Minowa and Yoshiwara were known for all kinds of nefarious activity.
How would it be for an American who just wanders in? Well, I wasn't quite expecting this..

Did you see the video when he was in Africa ? a little black girl was scared of him because she had never seen a white man and thought he was a ghost he scared the crap out of her he didn’t do anything to scare her she just was scared ‼️ I don’t remember how long it had been but he went back to her village to see if she would still be scared of him she was a little older and she wasn’t scared of him it was cute he gave her a dress i think I give him credit for going to strange and sometime’s scary places by himself that takes a lot of guts ‼️💯👍🏻😬

The traffic accident total was for the whole of Tokyo-to (23 wards). Those are pretty good numbers IMHO. Koban would be best described as a "police box". For your viewers' info.. they are on street corners every half-mile or so apart. Sometimes unmanned but usually staffed with one or two local beat cops. The first restaurant told you the tables were all reserved, but didn't mention the counter. Could have been miscommunication but it's also quite likely he didn't want the hassle of trying to communicate with a foreigner or deal with the fact you're filming. Despite your decent Japanese! Dude your "ghetto" sake was shochu. And quite a popular brand! iichiko.

The main reason why Japan is so safe is because they are a very image-conscious and classist society. If you spit gum or throw trash on the street, or steal change from a tip jar or carjack, you would be called "low class" or "trashy". That in itself is more _self-policing_ than being apprehended by law enforcement. No one wants to be called or perceived as "low class" -- absolutely no one. An arrest, especially if people are around watching (judging), would be the most _unthinkable_ and ultimate embarassment, whereas here in the States, in striking contrast, being rebellious, defiant, and even getting arrested is worn like a badge of honor! Go figure. 🤦‍♀

This is so true. Not just in Japan, in most Asian countries, people tend to follow the norm. Whereas when I see videos of people in the West, they want to do things to stand out, and that means even pissing off the people around them. Collectivism is still active in Asia, while a lot of Western countries prefer to have "every man for himself" attitude.

The Japanese are extraordinarily "trouble-averse." Most ordinary Japanese people will do almost anything to avoid inviting trouble for themselves and their families/close circles. It's a society that prizes introverts and privacy is a big deal. No one wants an audience, no one wants a bad reputation and, perhaps most importantly, no one wants to be bothered by anyone else. The best way to ensure that people can mind their own business in peace and quiet is for everyone to behave themselves when they go out in public. The Japanese people who disturb the peace are despised not only for their "low class" activities, but for the apparent absence of any reasonable sense of self-preservation. That an individual wouldn't mind being stared at or considered an asshole is deeply disturbing. Seeing such a person is like seeing that famous breast-feeding "human-dog hybrid" art piece.

I'll tell you about a brief history of Sanya. After the WWⅡ, big cities like Tokyo and Osaka needed a lot of construction workers to rebuild from the wartime air-raid destruction. Thus, a lot of people were gathered from all over the countries and the place like Sanya provided cheap temporary lodgings for many day wokers. Most of construction workers returned home or went somewhere at the time that the reconstruction businesses were almost over. And yet, some day workers continued to stay around Sanya areas without stable jobs, since residence fees and other prices are less expensive compared with other places in Tokyo. They seem to be left behind and create poor communities.

This is kinda weird but I think of word in another language like a synonym. Also you can associate remembering things with your past memories, objects, colors, smells, numbers what ever works best for you. The human brain has little hacks you can do to help improve memory. You should look into cognitive behavioral therapy.

Japan seems to have an ingrained idea of how things should be done. Then I notice that countries that are homogenous and smaller size are often the safest and most respectful. And for Japan specifically, it seems that people from other nations that move there realize it's their responsibility to become part of that structure and composition. Without rampant urban sprawl, they are always in contact with this structure and see the benefits, likely making it easier to continue it or be shamed. Of course not all of Japan is the same and there are different was to perceive these ideas here, plus the countless other factors that play a role.

While cutting through alleys I came out to a large street with probably 100 sex clubs on it, and every club had a bouncer and 5 to 10 girls outside just shivering in the february cold to “advertise”. I was also the only westerner around and everyone was just staring at me in a “what are you doing here” kind of way. I noped away from there real fast.

Their business is closely monitored by police. "Sanya" is the word of the district character which means the town of day laborer.

I hear you, it's often a bit of a trip when you realise you can fully let your guard down in Japan. Now I'm not saying you walk around all other places being paranoid but when you've been in Japan for a short period of time you understand that you'd have to be going out of your way to get into any kind of trouble.

not discrimination against the chinese restaurant per se, but japanese place huge emphasis on authenticity/honmono...think like this: not many chinese people would go to an american opened chinese restaurant in china or in the us

@@youme1414 ok so if i'm in my area and there's local restaurants then a foreign one, should i force myself to the foreign one because some people think that's discriminatory while I'm in my own country? lol nothing against chinese but it's the natural way of things they could have been any other nation. say italian pizzaria it doesn't matter.

@@SolarNeonFlare Try to watch the video again. Your example is very wrong. What happens in this case is that the Japanese enter into the restaurant and only to find out it is owned by Chinese and they leave. Patronizing local restaurants shouldn't be discriminatory. In fact, the Chinese restaurant and the owner or worker has lived there for 18 good years and that is local enough. What some of them do is a sign of discrimination. A bold way to say you are not welcome here.

@@youme1414 eh, that's life. They're welcome enough that some eat, if we go by this approach of welcoming everyone then it turns into USA / EUrope, a cesspit that doesn't have an identity anymore, especially if you look at europe, western side. It's good for people to wanna stick to their own and natural. Maybe the guys in the clip got in and thought they'd find a different kind of dish or decided to leave, can't rly put it down based on this video can we now?

@@SolarNeonFlare How do you mean? Seriously, most countries have their identities yet most welcome immigrants. This is not even about welcoming influx of immigrants but about accepting those who are already there. This is covert discrimination to accept such a display of ignorance claim of support for identity or whatever. It is clear we humans still haven't learnt a thing or more from nature and understand who we really are as animals. We aren't that special as we believe in the scheme of things of the universe. Why do we have to subject others to some petty disregards? We have to learn to respect and tolerate one another.

I can't tell you how many Tokyo walk by videos and Ramen street food videos I've watched. There's something magical about the place. I can't wait to go for my 40th birthday in a few years. By which time I should be quite fluent in some of the language.

Ive spent quite some time in Ueno, in my experience, its the area in the block of Nakamachi-dori which is probably more unsafe with a lot of night clubs and bars and when i walked there i got approached a lot by sketchy guys and girls trying to lure me in. The other side of the main street that runs through Ueno where you ate next to the tracks is much safer and more popular with many restaurants and shopping.

Actually in Japan, the Police have a 100% conviction rate. How do you think that is possible? It is pretty simple, in Japan the Police can arrest and detain you indefinitely until you confess, no matter how long it takes. So if you ever want to see the outside world ever a again, the sooner you confess the sooner you'll get to trial and maybe just maybe you'll get a short prison sentence!

The conviction rate is not 100% and it's not even the police's decision to indict or not. The conviction rate is high because Japanese prosecutors only go after crimes which they're sure they can prove in court. Otherwise, it's a fishing expedition and a waste of time and tax money.
