Hi everybody! I had some technical errors (wrong captions) + parts that I had to edit out that's why I've decided to reupload this video. Anyway, what are your top 3 emergency bag essentials? Let me know in the comments section! ^^ 👇 🙏

Hi Rainbowholic! I appreciate this video about preparedness. Since you're probably preparing for a natural disaster kind of emergency, and since I've been into emergency prepping for a while, here are some tips I want to share with you and with everyone who's putting together their own kit. 1. Go light. You might not be able to safely rush out of an emergency, if your backpack is too heavy. So, switch anything you can with the lighter option. For example: - switch the many torchlights with a pocket torchlight to carry with you and a LED lamp installed on the front strap or your backpack if u want to go hands free. Pack rechargable batteries and a charger if u ever run out of power. - Switch your bulky radio with a slimmer, lighter one. It will do the job and you can use the side pocket to carry other things. - switch the sweets with protein bars. They will keep you full for longer, while the sweets only give you an initial kick due to their sugars, but little to no energy. - switch the plastic bottle with a metal one. Add a sterilizing light to clean your water if you're unsure about its purity. You can find these lights at outdoor/tracking specialized shops, military supply shops, or simply Amazon - you can switch (or add to) your portable toilet with a pee card. It's basically a card that folds to create a funnel, so that we can pee standing, anywhere and without sitting on potentially unclean toilets. - switch your slippers with flip flops. Same function, less space - switch the mat (you're probably never going to use it) with a SLEEPING BAG. This is important. You need to rest well to keep functioning. 2. The essentials - Bring a steel cup that you could use both as a plate and as a cup to boil the water to prepare your ramen. You can stuff things inside it when it's in your bag. - Medical bag. Bringing meds and bandaids is fine, but carrying a tourniquet, alcohol, cotton and self-adhering stitches (they are like stickers to put on deeper wounds) might be life-saving. Also, a pair of tweezers and a lighter. - by this time, you probably have room enough to fit a pair of light sneakers. You need something comfortable in case you ran away from home in your slippers, or if it's raining and your shoes get wet. 3. Safety and communications. There are mini-phones available on the market. They are smaller than a lighter and work just as an old school phone (one with the buttons). You can keep it in a pocket along with a prepaid sim card that you can make good use of, just in case there are any public phones nearby or you forgot to bring your phone in the hurry. - carry one HIGH quality bank with you, even better if it charges with solar energy. You need something good to rely on, in case you run low on electricity for a while. - a pepper spray. Girls, this is important. Attach one to the strap of you backpack, the one you can reach the easiest way with your dominant hand. USE A MAGNETIC RING, not a clip, because you need to be able to quickly strap it off your bag and have it in your hand. This is so, so important. - also: keep your IDs and your scanned documents in the pockets that are directly touching your back. They will be harder to steal, or to lose. And that's it! I just want to add, if you live in a dangerous area, it would be useful to learn First Aid basics. Ask your local Red Cross section, they usually make basic courses aimed at civilians and law enforcers. You might never know when this or that skill might save your life, or another's. These are my suggestions about emergency bags, I hope I didn't sound boring or pretentious - I just want everyone to be able to take care of themselves and of others at the best of their possibilities. I hope nobody ever needs this kind of tips in their life, but just in case, it's better to be prepared! I send a hug to you and all of your followers, stay safe! 💕🌈

I would say that my top 3 are: * My hearing aids and its chargers. Can't hear properly without them. * A complete first aid kit, one with spare cpr masks since I'm cpr certified, including my cpr card. * Something that can be used to make shelter, similar to the aluminum blanket. If it's large enough, you could throw it over a branch and have a makeshift tent.

I'm grateful to live in a country where there's almost little to no natural disasters (Malaysia). Watching this really made me think about how lucky I am. Great video Kaila, thanks for enlightening us!

lol u seems like marry poppins with ur bag, no end but seriously its perfect, i take notes, thank u

My mom and I watched the video together and now we decided to make a emergency bag, that was so inspiring and important, such a good video!!!!

Thank you for sharing this! I'd like to recommend everyone to write down the expiration dates of things like food and medication in their kits. Whether it's on a piece of paper on the fridge or a notification on your phone, knowing when things are about to expire without digging through your pack can save a lot of hassle and/or heartache. When you notice something on your list is close to expiring you can put it on your shopping list and, once purchased, switch it out so that nothing goes to waste.

Clothes, knife, duck tape, radio, recharge pack for cell phone. Excellent bag!

These bags really are necessary. Because in times of stress or being in a great hurry. You do not tend to make the best choices of what to carry. And many things you might need are forgotten. Preparing ahead of time and not under stress. Your whole bag will be better suited to helping in your emergency. And it will be a matter of grab and go!!! Saving precious time!!!. Not having to hunt and pack a bag.

This was really helpful! I also have a rosary for my own bag. Faith helps keep us strong in uncertain times! 📿

This is my third foreign emergency bag video! Georgia, Ukraine, and now Japan. It's amazing to see how in ways they are similar and very different from my bag back home in America. Right now I am deployed to Okinawa and I prepared a bag specifically for while I was out here and it was very odd not including anything for self defense, but a lot of the rest was the same in many ways. Great video by the way, seems you had fun making it.

Thanks for the informative video! I really like how you included the white protective helmet, mini capsule with personal information and most importantly mini journal with family photos! I live in California, USA where we are known to have earthquakes. Right now we are dealing with fires right now. Family love can be very strong and help get us through tough times.

I think you should add these important things: some source of protein, because I noticed the food you packed was all carbs. I don't know if you eat meat, but beef jerky sticks are good sources of protein that are portable and don't spoil. Also, you should add sunscreen, bar of soap, and the LifeStraw personal water filter to purify any water and make it drinkable. Because after all, water is more important than food.

Well packed for emergencies! And there were some items I am jealous about, the best being the amazing backpack all of this was contained within. It's like looking into Hermione Grainger's bottomless purse! I'm an old woman who lives in earthquake-threatened Seattle, so I packed one of these myself a few years ago. I recognize that I need to review, revise, and replace my emergency bag's contents. Your video has reminded me of this, plus inspired some changes I need to make. Thank you for making this video. I suspect you may end up having saved some lives and/or reduced suffering for some people by doing this. Good work! And, again, thank you!

This is the most adorable emergency prep bag that has ever been made. It’s extremely well thought out. The only thing I’d try to do is see if you can cram in more protein so you don’t starve.

this is the cutest emergency bag i've ever seen

Excellent ! I suggest a bit more First Aid. Some antiseptic ointment. Gauze squares (secure with your tape to keep in place). Sanitary napkins can be used to stop wounds from bleeding Tweezers to pull out glass or splinters. Some vitamins 🤗 Some baking soda (Soda Bicarbonate) It can be used for mouthwash, teeth cleaning, deodorant, treat heartburn/indigestion, cleaning. Also, make a paste using some water to relieve bug bites, bee stings & sunburn Stay safe, everyone 💕

You didn’t show any first aid did you? If not, please add it to your bag! Band aids, bandages and wound disinfectant etc... aside from that ut seems you’re well prepared! Hopefully you won’t ever need it though ❤️

wow!! That is a lot of survival in one bag!! That is so very awesome!!

Also very grateful for you providing the list of items and links!!!

After I saw this I went straight to Daiso and finished putting together my evac bag. Thanks for motivating me to be productive!

FINALLY! This is very helpful, Kaila-san! Sankyuuuu for the information~ this will come in handyyy. Will definitely use this as reference!

Thank you for making this video- you even put in some things that I forgot were necessary- like sanitary products!! I’m glad I found this before preparing my own kit!

Wow! Great video! Thanks for sharing. I love when prepared people from around the world post videos. We all can learn from each other, & you gave me a couple of good ideas that I hadn’t thought of. Thank you!

The bag looks heavy. How many kilos ?

Did you keep medicines? Some medicines like Crocin(for headaches & fever), painkiller, antibiotics, multivitamins, antiallergic are essential so you can also fit them in. And I recommend you to carry a compact nebulizer and the medicines with it because it doesn't take up much space and when you have difficulty in breathing it instantly gives relief

An crank radio is something that I NEED

I love how detail you are when packing the backpack, it's like doraemon pouch, everything's inside, very reassuring

Oh! I LOVE this video - thank you for wonderful, useful, practical ideas to pack in my emergency bag ❤ 👍

Wow, that is an extremely well put together emergency bag. It's the second time watching it but I don't think I watched it completely the first time. The only thing I would suggest is a little wire antenna for your radio. I keep an emergency radio in my kit just like you and one day I tried it when it was cloudy outside and it wasn't picking up reception. So I added an accessory antenna because during a disaster it may be difficult to get reception on your radio. Other than that you got everything covered perfectly. Canada.

I was really impressed with the amount of thought you put into this bag! I never thought of a picnic mat (to lay on), aluminum blankets, and the portable toilets! I think the only thing I didn't see was some sort of knife, the small scissors were good, but a larger blade, even a pocket knife (swiss army pocket knife) might be helpful too.

Girl your survival backpack is amazing

You: has tons of writing materials and money and stuff like that- Me: guns, knives, blankets so I don’t die from hypothermia, chips, a million bottles of water, a portable wifi and charger, 59 burner phones

Japan sinks was a good anime,I'm glad it got you thinking,it also inspired me too..regards from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇯🇵👍

I got good tips for disaster preparedness, Ms. Kaila! Thank you for sharing this video. I too would back a mini-journaling kit! 😁 Oh, before I forget, in preparing for evacuation area/center stay, please don't forget to pack your travel transportation money/railway pass. Here in the Philippines, just in case evacuation areas are full, or you are informed of changes in plans, and the frontliners have their work cut out for them, have extra means to get home or to another safe area.

Everything is so dang cute 😊 😂 I can imagine it will be very uplifting to see all the cute things in an emergency

thanks for sharing with us !! very informative

Thank you thank you thank you for this video! I have to hit people over the head that they should have a to-go bag, but always say "I'll get around to it". I'm not directly affected by wildfires or earthquakes, but sometimes hurricanes, floods, ice/snow storms, severe thunderstorms, and definitely tornadoes and damage from them recently (trees and power lines broken). Power goes out for 10 or so days, you need to be prepared and pretend you're camping. It's a mindset my mom and I try to have, and to be simple and thankful. No heat during snow storms is killer on me. No AC during a severe storm is bad too. I shared one of my Japanese fans with my mom when we had a storm in August. I think I'm going to re-do my to-go bag with some items you have suggested, because I didn't think of the possibility my mom and dog and I would get separated. We are told to pack for 3 day supply (clothes, etc), bring PPE gear and hazard clothes or vest, and definitely a bible. I never thought about including a stationery set with pictures of my family cuz I miss them or to show to others if they are missing lol I have a backpack that has a lot of pockets I use now, but I looove that bag with even mooore pockets! I think I should get my extra utensils/chopsticks/bento and make room for it. I completely forgot about Japan's portable toilets, but also disposable panties?! Yes please! Japan knows everything! Ah, what about pads or tampons along with first aid? More granola bars, cereal, protein like nuts are also good for food supply, but yes ramen! We have a small gas stove to use to boil water/food. I tried looking for a cute fox hanging lantern and head light I saw once, but I never saw it again at the store =/ I just have an old Pokeball area light XD I'll repurpose my glow sticks as well. I should get a blanket or something to lay on, too. The seat cushion and picnic spread were great ideas. I have a butt cushion regardless cuz of my back injury, but I doubt I'll think of it during an emergency. You're right about labelling things. The last thing you want to do is search for something when your mind and body are already in a panic. How often do you replace items in your bag? We do every 6 months to rotate food and batteries. I recently found out some clothes/light jacket don't fit me anymore, so I had to change them. I put them in one of those vacuum seal/SpaceBags and sat on it until the air came out XD I also have another duffelbag with winter clothes I can grab. I admit I've been lazy, so thank you again for posting this video and not being ashamed to pack cute things to keep sane =)

My suggestions: 1) pack umbrella and rain coat on top for fast access. 2) Discard 2 flashlights but keep radio/flashlight/cell-charger device and headlamp 3)combine all batteries so you can re-charge with above device. 4)Discard picnic mat. Instead use simple plastic sheet and inflatable mattress for comfortable sleeping 5) pack a clean towel for bathing 6) pack some light sleep clothes because, Japanese people will invite you to sleep over at their house.

ok that bag is huge!!! its like the mary poppins of bags!!!! i couldnt believe how much you were able to fit in that thing!! and im sure so much more could fit as well!!

This the most impressive backpack i have ever seen.

That lamp is so useful! I have a hand-charging lamp in my kit but I'll upgrade with the next paycheck (hopefully no disasters will happen before that lol)

Love the rosary from your mum! ❤

I see a lot of people getting more concious about preparedness and im happy for this video! Also side note I love your T-Shirt

Thank you for the video. It’s very useful (and cute).

An excellent kit! Japan takes this much more seriously than most nations, both in terms of response planning and education. I like that you have the map and compass in what is an urban bag- very, very few people have walked their entire town, even fewer when you live in an actual city. I also like your spare shopping bag for those things we find. I've taught this subject for a couple decades, and while there are places where economies of space and weight could be taken, this is better than most such kits I've seen people build. My only real recommendations would be to add a second pen (or a wood pencil and a sharpener), some more water, a couple trash bags, and leather outer gloves as those knit ones look warm but will shred quickly. Move your first aid to where you can get to it easier. That, and leave some space to rescue your Totoro (I've never seen that on in the States). If you were in one of my classes 95% with most of that being the lack of water. No extra credit for the cuteness of some of the items, but it is good for your morale.

Make it cute!! 💖 this was such a great video idea! I don’t even live in an area generally prone to natural disasters thankfully however I will definitely make myself a bag like this. You never know when you might need it.

I'd definitely bring that picnic mat, aluminium blanket, and that hand cranked radio/charger :)

oh wow perfect timing! there was an earthquake in California last night. I was quite scared!

We don't have earthquakes here, but floods are possible. Although some of the products here are not available here but (the portable toilet) I would pack practically everything that you keep, except the rosary but a Bible it's OK. It's a very good idea. And actually seeing an emergency backpack really inspires me to pack my own.

I remember I did this during the upcoming year - 2012 ~ I still hid some of the items where I can get it very easy and fast but got rid of the bag since I don't have much space for my room~ I got inspired again lol~ hehehehe

There's seem to be a lot of earthquakes and volcanic activities lately in Indonesia, thanks for sharing your emergency pack! I'm using this video as a guide to build my own.

Thank you for sharing your items very helpful. I recommend making a bigger first aide kit with more items.

Nicely done! I would however add a leatherman wave or gerber multi tool and a couple other ways to make fire such as matches and a ferro rod. Also a single wall stainless steel water bottle to boil water in.

Thanks for the list! and stay safe God bless you🌹🌺

I really appreciate this video coz it will help me review my own emergency bag. Your bag is very good. What I shall add in mine, here is the Phil. is a malong & tubao which will be very useful as blanket, dressing/privacy suit, etc. But really thanks for this.

this was very helpful thank you! I live in California and with all the fires and looming big quake and the general increasing instability of this country I am trying to put some bags together for me and my family.

Aaah Daiso, the secret prepper paradise.

Outstanding bag, video, and review.

This was very interesting for me. I live in the United states and my bag has very different items. One thing i would add to yours would be a way to boil water.

Thanks for this! Reminded me to repack and check our emergency backpack since we have a toddler already! Had to bring more stuff.. 🤪 But hope it wont be too heavy!! But the most important of all.. We need FOOD and water 🙂

It's great to prepare everything. I love what you showed, so completed and neatly with plastic label. Your bag is so wide place to put all of needs. Thanks for information for check list, I will save for later in uncertain condition. Happy sunday 🌈 with cold raining on here. (Jakarta)

ur bag like doraemon bag...everything come from inside...love it!!! :)

Emergency kits are so important, so thanks for sharing. I would personally be thinking lighter/less stuff but you gave me lots of ideas to think about!

thank you for this! U gave me a lot of ideas on what to put in my emergency kit

hi please stay safe out there! i want to prepare my own emergency bag too but idk where to start since there is so much to prepare. love your video it's so thorough, everything is so functional yet aesthetic and cute, which will bring a small comfort if emergency does happen and you're alone and cold in danger somewhere. and you're so organized! after researching around, i'd should bring a protein/energy bar as we will need the nutrition! and rope (always handy) and a fire steel in addition of a lighter (you can use fire steel thousands of times and it can still be used even when it's wet, just in case something goes wrong with the lighter, need a bit of practice tho), and maybe a water filter or water sanitizer pills, just in case we run out of clean water source

Love the video. I love that bag. Haven't tried ordering from amazon japan here in the US. My emergency bag essentials would be my important documents, my meds and food.

I like your preparedness and preperation of your backpack may you be safe I pray you dont have to use it. May the Lord be with you😁

Great video. Its Intreating to see the similarities and differences in what we pack. I'm from the United states.

Some people have made very good suggestion that i think you should take in consideration. You need to be able to carry your bag on several miles so test it to see if it's okay. You should have disposable gloves too in case someone is hurt and you have to take care of a wound and touch blood. You should have two way of making fire in case one doesn'y work. Stay safe

What an awesome survival bag. My girlfriend in Japan I’ll make sure she get this for ideas.

Great bag. Well thought out items.

Looks good, I'd probably change a few things out of personal preference. The teeth wipes are single use and disposable so I'd probably swap that out for a bamboo toothbrush (light) and either a travel size toothpaste or toothpowder. Travel sized dental floss is small and light, you can get travel size mouth wash. You need some toilet paper or a couple of packs of tissues as it can be used for multiple things. Those disposable toilets are good in a pinch but I would also get a "she wee" or similar as they can be cleaned and reused. The collapsible cup is a tricky choice because plastic is lighter but metal woud be easier to sterilize. I have a titanium spork which has a cutting knife (for food) at the other end. Titanium is pretty light. For feminine products in a situation where supplies may be hard to get either washable pads or a menstrual cup would be useful. A bar of soap perhaps for both cleaning yourself and cleaning clothes if hand washing. I like the emergency contact numbers in that keyring. I have seen some people back up important documents to a small USB drive in their emergency pack in the case of not being able to return home. Not sure how that works for things like birth certificates etc. I would have to look into that more. The umbrella I would swap for a water proof jacket as that will keep your torso dry and keep the wind chill factor down. Probably depends on your climate but personally I find umbrellas a pain to use (windy in the winter) and that's a hand you now can't use to hold anything else. Are you not allowed to have a pocket knife of any kind? Here in the UK we also have strict rules over knife carrying but in general a small multitool/swiss army knife is allowed as long as the blade is not fixed or does not have a quick release and is under a certain size. There are certain places where it may get confiscated but those would be places you know not to take it to in the first place but in general as long as you are not up to anything fishy it should be fine. Oh one more thing I've thought of that can come in handy is a small sewing kit. I once went camping and didn't take one because I thought what were the chances that I'd need one and the very next day I needed one. I don't carry the full travel kit as it came to me, just white, black, grey and navy thread, a few sewing needles and safety pins and a small pair of scissors (swapped out the scissors in the kit for a lighter one). The space that is left I've added a cut down nail file, a tiny pair of tweezers and a small screwdriver. There is still room in there if I think of anything else I may need.

I love that bag, need to get one like it!

Interesting items you would have. Our things would be different. You are so dainty. I am impressed by your skill set. I hope you never need to use it, except for picnics with the family.

It’s awesome that you are having the mindset to be prepared for just in case. The insect stickers are genius didn’t know they were a thing and the key capsule with information on it is brilliant as well I’ve never thought of such a simple solution. What does white flower oil do? I didn’t see a knife, or some kind of cordage like 550 cord, I would also like to encourage you to get a first air kit and some kind of tarp for shelter and away to make water clean and drinkable. I look forward to seeing how your bag evolves and changes as you learn more!!! You are off to a great start!!!

Nice bag! My emergency bag is VERY similar to yours. And have the same items packed. Enjoyed your video. And thank you for the English captions. The little hanging items are cute on your bag and do serve a purpose. But you might consider putting some inside your bag. They rattle and make noise. Which might draw attention if you are trying to go unnoticed. Thank you for sharing your bag items.

Brilliant video, thank you. One suggestion - sanitary towels?

I realized just how important it is to have an emergency bag after the devastating earthquake in Cianjur happened

You Are so prepared! I wish you the best and that you never have to use that backpack and yes it is sooo cool ha

P.S. You also need a change of pants or tights and a top , poly vest, 2x wool hiking socks, crushable hat or poly cap, flatten it all in an airtight bag. You need safety googles and xtra prescription glasses ( old ones or new with a cheap plastic flex frame), 2-3 bright yellow or orange cotton bandannas as signal flags, dust mask, towel, etc., good hard sole short boots, to walk thru rubble, Finally a jo crooked cane (2/3 m) or a 1.5 m Bo staff, 25mm around, white was wood or oak, with a small rubber heavy duty crutch tip. It’s a walking aid and will ward off evil 2-4 foot critters. U r in Japan, finding instructional s should be easy. U tube is full of them , but live is better.

Pretty much covered every essential items 👍

This is so great! you inspired my boyfriend and i to create our own emergency kit. You are so sweet and I hope you will never have to use this kit (it is awesome, don't get me wrong) I would maybe pack some more protein :) stay safe

Hi girl love the bag! Happy Saturday 🥳

Wow Doreamon bag !!!😂👌🏻👌🏻 so nice 👍🏻 love Japan ,is a dream 😻 😘😘😘😘

Definitely inspired me to get my act together and organise a survival/disaster prep bag! With the way things have been going, it’s a great idea! (I’m in Australia too 🙂, and with summer coming up again, always nervous for fire season 🙁). Hope you never have to use your bag though! 💕

防災意識が高くて感心しました！私なんてちょっとしかしてません。

Good idea!! Love this video.

This was amazing to watch! I have made a emergency bag and I will do a video on it!

I enjoyed this video very much, thank you

This can even be used while traveling or a stay in jungle, camping and stuff

This is good! And very important to.

Thank you for this video.

Totoro looks so cute 😀

You have put a lot of thought into this kaila, great work!👍🏻💚 May you never have to use it though.🙂

Very impressive emergency bag. I would never think of half of that stuff. Hope you never have to use it though. Stay safe

Just about the only thing I would add or change is to add more water and ways of storing, filtering, and purifying it.

The only thing I think you should add are a High visibility vest a sweatshirt or jacket and a big garbage bag just for these reasons the high visibility vest so rescue crews can see you the sweatshirt or jacket because those cheap disposable rain jackets fail you at the worst time in the and the garbage bag to go along with your aluminum blanket and hot packs she put everything inside the trash bag along with you and sleep in it like a sleeping bag but other than that besides the first aid kit really good kit

Excelente, muy educativo. Desde Chile saludos.

🌈💫 you are beautiful and full of light!
