Funny Japanese meme compilation
My second Japanese Meme Review! Explaining things I find on Twitter related to all types of Japanese culture, from obscure to mainstream.
---
Here's the text from the part I cut, if you're interested.
Obviously I made the last Meme Review video for, what I assumed, would be at most 300 views. I was not expecting, in any world, for it to be as big as it is. Keeping in mind that 99% of the feedback is positive, I would like to address some criticisms.
1) I completely missed the ASUS reference to The Golden Axe Aesop fable. Yep. Completely. Oops. I had never heard that fable before, to be honest. I just thought it was a common fiction trope they were being cute about.
2) I missed the Baki Oliver thing, but I caught that pretty early and made a comment about it. Actually, during the creation of that video, I asked a few of my Japanese friends if I was missing anything and they didn’t understand it either.
3) I didn’t explain who the people were in the idol meme.
I’ll be honest. I’m not huge into Japanese subculture stuff. I barely watch any anime, I don’t read manga, and I’m not interested in idols. I’m also not Japanese. So I’m going to miss stuff, and there will absolutely be times where some of you know more about random references than I do. I’m super happy if you guys add more information in the comments. These meme videos are legitimately just memes that I’ve found funny in my personal life, and bookmarked. That’s why they’re all from Twitter - I don’t use Instagram or Tiktok or whatever, but keep in mind that Twitter is relatively much more popular in Japan.

- Miyazaki made a movie. - It's trademarked. - Company asks for a change. - Miyazaki refuses to elaborate. - Company got forced into sponsoring the movie.

@user-zu8jn1fj4w Жыл бұрын

The only time you stick chopsticks straight into rice is when you serve a meal to a dead person. Sticking them into your own rice is also against manners and very surprising. It is worse than overturning a plate.

I'm still at a relatively early stage in the language but listening to people talk, sing and write (mostly for kanji) really helps. Thanks! Would be looking forward to other types of content too, although considering how much this blew up you're probably gonna make more of those.

Really enjoying your channel. I'm surprised at this idea that the British don't like spicy food. As I feel it is the other way around. To me, Japanese food is not spicy at all. Now admittedly I have not tried level 10 Co-Co curry! But all the currys I have had in Japan for the last ten years have been what I would consider mild. And nothing like the level of heat I would get from say a standard British Vindaloo curry, and that's not even mentioning a Phaal. Then again, London is full of soft southerners, so it makes sense that they would serve mild tourist friendly food. 😂
