I'm personally a Mr. Doughnut fan, and I think the popularity of Mr Doughnut among Japanese people could be attributed to savoriness of the dough, and not so much the sugary sweetness. The dough has mochi-like quality by being moist and squishy and has a savory after taste, and this makes it reminiscent of more traditional Japanese sweets like daifuku and sakura-mochi which we are used to eating.

First Kitchen is nationwide restaurant. It has partnered with Wendy's. Some have a partial Wendy's menu (Hence the name).

For me, it's Katsuya. It's impossible to beat the price if you want Katsu or Karaage dishes plus the 100 yen coupon is such a sweet deal. Their morning menu is even better. Also buying Karaage or Gyoza with rice in Kamukura, and 400 yen gyudon in Matsuya are great deal as well.

The Katsu at Katsuya always taste like they're using burned or spoiled oil. For me its a no brainer to spend the extra few hundred yen and go to an actual Katsu restaurant (with bottomless rice, soup, cabbage, and pickles) rather than getting fast food.

As a vegetarian (not a vegan!) I'll just say that of all the places I can eat I pretty much agree with you, except Mossie, which I'd put higher, probably because a big burger doesn't concern me. But CoCo is an absolute godsend. There's one across the road from my office and I eat there at least twice a week. Vegan curry sauce and then just select anything you want making a much greater selection than the one or two things on a burger place menu. Torikizoku also have a good number of things for veggies on the menu. I will admit I don't ask too many questions about cooking practices or the ingrediants of sauces....I'm a bad vegetarian!

I loooved Coco Ichibanya. My hotel was in Shinjuku when I was in Japan, so I ate katsukare at least 2 or 3 times at the Coco in Omoide Yokocho and at the one in Tokyo Big Sight during Comiket. I didn't find it all that expensive, compared to what I'm charged for katsukare in my country, since most Japanese restaurants only get sushi and some have ramen at most, so it's rare to find. I also have a funny story about Mister Donut. I saw the ads for the Pokemon promo at Kabukicho and I wanted to try the Pikachu one, but it was sold out (one of the many occasions where I had to learn the word "kanbai" the hard way). I came across another Misdo in Yokosuka and it being a smaller town, there were plenty of 'em. But yeah, it was just a chocolate donut. I satisfied my craving for a good donut at the Kabukicho Krispy Kreme (my first time eating from one too) before going home.

Coming from Eastern Asian, I think you are absolutely spot-on - my taste bud put Mister Donuts to A tier, but agreeing with everything else you have. Well, at least the ones that I had tried. I dislike American sweet food because they are super too sweet. To a degree that my tongue feels hurt. And Mister Donuts is just the right amount of sweetness. And because it is not disruptively sweet, I can finally tell the nice smell from the donuts and all the condiments they put on it. BTW I think Australian Krispy Kreme is definitely as sweet, so I like it a lot.

Of course, I'm also objectively correct. - Japanese macdonalds is so good compared to Canada. I think the food is made fresher or something. It comes out super hot. - I'm usually pretty good with hot food but level 7 on ichiban coco kills me. Like visibly open pores sweating pain. - I love Kura. We had a lot of plate wars when I lived there. - Pre-wendy's FK was great. They had the best ebi-burger in my experience. Don't know if that is still the case. - I love the anal bead donuts at mr donut but lately they seem to have changed. Within the last 5 years or so. - That ghost cheese lotteria burger last year is super horrible - Only go to denny's for the deserts . - I don't like mos burger, it's like they forgot seasoning. - In the last few years 711's quality has nose-dived. Go for lawson or familymart if you can.

Japanese but also not really a big fan of Mister Donut, might have put it at D tier instead... but with that being said, I do have to say sweets in America are WAAAAAY too sweet, I just cannot understand how Americans eat that crap day in and day out. I lived in America for 10+ years, "Sweet Hell/あまい地獄" is definitely the right word to sum up my experience. So many things I miss about America (BBQ, pizza, hamburgers, all sorts of different ethnic cuisines), but your sweets are not one of them.

Just before Covid I went on a very budgeted trip to Japan and practically lived off 7 Eleven. I could not stop eating their strawberry daifuku. It’s a 5-600 yen piece of strawberry short cake wrapped in a mochi. Till now, that is probably my favourite dessert. I think they also have it in Family Mart and Lawson. Also loved Matsuya.

Hey Japanalysis, I have some feedback for your meme videos if you're interested: Personally, it feels like there's a need for a sound to symbolise separation between topics/memes as they tend to blend into one another when there's no pause in between. I was not announcing it prior because I had no potential solution, until I heard the mouse click sound from 3:13 - this could work as a separation with a half second pause. It's not that important but it could be a quality of life improvement in my opinion. If you agree, try expanding on this idea and see what works best. Thank you for hearing me out! Love.

One of them is Masaki Kazumi, a genius inventor who holds a substantial amount of various patents. He also claims to have achieved various supernatural powers. He sold a product on the 90s called パラメモリ2 or brain potentialiser para memory II. I'm trying to learn more about this weird thing, all I have found are auction photos of the thingy which looks like a Walkman. This stuff is listed on various what looks like bot/scam websites for like 20 000 yen. I don't speak or read Japanese so this is as far as I got, but maybe you'll find this to be a nice challenge 😀

I'm from America but I'd definitely put Mister Donut in S tier. Their donuts are perfect for dunking in coffee, and you can get free refills of coffee if you eat in the store. Maybe I'm just weird, but I think chains like Dunkin' Donuts, Krispy Kreme, and Tim Horton's serve donuts that are disgustingly sweet. It's like eating a cheap birthday cake from a supermarket.

As another American, I totally agree! I think Japanese sweets can even be too sweet for me sometimes 😂 I can't stand Hershey's chocolate, for one thing. It tastes like pure fake sugar to me. But there are some sweets I do prefer to be sweeter, like some sodas or coffees (I love a good Frappuccino lmfao). Donuts are already really fatty here in the U.S., but the donuts at Mister Donut seem like a much healthier option!

Going to Japan in December and I'm going to have to try your bottom-of-the-list Shakey's for the sake of experience. I've lived in Hong Kong for 30 years so I am open to the odd strange combo. Anyway, thanks for the video. It's a good crash course on Japanese fast food.

Shakey's in the Philippines doesn't have a pizza buffet just like in Japan, but in the Philippines personally I think Shakey's has one of the best thin crust pizzas in the PH! Also their other pizza flavors are amazing and the pizza doesn't look like what you showed on the video, so that was surprising to me. Anyways amazing job again and I aaaaaaaalllllwayyysssss enjoy your videos!

Regarding convenience stores: When I was in Japan for a holiday I tried a bunch from the three major chains and I agree 7/11 was the overall best but I found I really liked the sweets section of the Lawson in Kyoto. FamilyMart however left a bad taste in my mouth as I sonehow managed to incite a screaming match between customers and staff due to asking for postage stamps. Never gonna forget that one.

I loved the McDonald's egg cheeseburgers. They were so simple but very enjoyable. KFC was ok. The chicken tastes the same as in the US but they're missing a lot of the side dishes that we're used to and for whatever reason, their biscuits have holes in them. I find Sushiro and Kura equal because they are similar but each offer something special. I really miss being able to walk 5 minutes from my hotel to get good, affordable sushi.

People who grow up in America probably find most food outside of the US as "tasteless" due to lack of salt or not sweet enough. I've been to the US a few times and have always had a problem with the food being overly salty and sweet, which would also explain why Americans have high diabetes and hypertension rates too

for the "bad" pizza place, I think it's cute that the old folks want to practice English with you. They're just showing curiosity and trying to be friendly. It's more or less the same in China as a foreigner. Being able to speak their language automatically helps them to open up more and they're just excited to meet someone from elsewhere that they can actually hold a conversation with. I understand you just want to eat, but you also have to see it from their perspective.

I think Freshness Burger is the best fast food burger in Japan. And I've had them all. Great fried chicken sandwich too! McDonaldo is probably 2nd on the strength of their breakfast selection and prices. Japanese Mcd is like 40% cheaper than in the US. I honestly think that all the American-style pizza chains in Japan (Pizza Hut, Dominoes, Shakeys, Pizza-La, etc) are terribad. There are a lot of really great pizza places out there that are among the best in the world though, but they are all more towards the Italian style and not the American style of the spectrum though. I think Matsuya is probably the best out of the three Gyudon chains, but I go to Sukiya more, just because there are more of them around. I think that this list missed out on a lot of the non-gyudon donburi category, stuff like Tenya and Nakau, etc.

MOS burger isn't really a fast food since they cook it after ordering. I just found it was a huge difference compared to say BK which were precooked and felt it was just a bit cold in the mouth. As for it being a small portion, yes it's true but they do have a double patty option for most of their beef burgers.

Bikkuri donki and mr donut got fucked over imo. I love coco's but i 100% prefer bikkuri donki. As for mr donut, you already mentioned that you prefer donuts sweeter, however as a person that grew up in Japan and Korea, I find that donuts in western countries are just far too sweet. I would also like to say, Shakey's pizza is alright as long as you avoid the shitty "dessert" pizzas and you get the pizzas as soon as they come out. The problem with the pizzas is that they're all so fucking thin and go cold in less than 10 minutes, the last time I visited shakey's, I tried to only get pizzas as they came out, and ordered pepperoni pizza when I could and they weren't too bad right out the oven.

First off, 17 ice is a vending machine not a restaurant, and it’s so mid. Like it’s okay for a quick snack but conbini ice cream is better. Next, Coco’s is god tier, and I’ll fight anyone that says otherwise. 7/11 is good, but it’s just bland. Like not in a bad way but I’m a safe way, just meh. Family Mart is worlds better in just about everything and especially on price. Lawson is just there, can’t really hate on it. McD’s IS much better here in Japan than America, but taste wise, Lotteria, Burger King, Mos all taste so much better. Burger King’s downfall is it’s price, but still good. Gusto is top tier of the “family” restaurants, and I’m insulted it was ranked below Saizeriya lol. Yayoi is okay, but it’s meh when compared to its own company branch of Hotto Motto. Sukiyaki and Matsuya are good but Sukiya by a LOT. Yoshinoya is like..LAST resort for these three. Gyoza Osho is so much bette than you guys gave it credit for, but I agree with your placing. Mister Donut is great, WHEN you have the right mindset. As an American that loves donuts, I still very much enjoy Mister Donut. Shakey’s is bad, but when you can get all you can eat pepperoni pizza, one can’t complain. Like my brother said once in a much worse context, “bad pizza is better than no pizza.” Fakkin is only not F for the meme name lol. But it was better when it was Wendy’s by itself some 18 years ago. KFC is just here, it’s not bad, it’s not mind blowing, it’s just here lol. Now for the sushi. While Sushiro and Kura are pretty much the same, Kura’s quality is so, so much better. The tuna is better, the rice is better, the seasonal items are better, just too big of a gap to lump them together. As for F tier, Subway is a pitiful shell of its American self. That being said it’s not bad tasting, it just isn’t worth it for it’s price and lack of customization which is pretty much the only reason to go to Subway. And my last..Denny’s. I’m sorry, but this was the BIGGEST disappointment of my life, eating here. As an American where going to Denny’s drunk as hell in the middle of the night to get cheap, decent pancakes, with the possibility of a fight show, this place was too posh, too expensive, and just not worth it. It may be an emotionally based ranking, but if I can’t get a Grand Slam..what’s the point. Thank you for reading of you made it through all this 😅
