I would imagine that the curse might have more to do with river spirits not wanting to be polluted than any intrinsic power of Colonel Sanders. ;) There might be some ハク「haku」/饒速水琥珀主「nigihayami kohaku nushi」from 千と千尋の神隠し (aka Spirited Away) equivalent river dragon spirit who needs medicine of being cleaned out more thoroughly first? Probably a way to test that scientifically would be to find the left hand and eye glasses and remove them from the river, but not rejoin them with the Colonel Sanders statue. If the curse is broken and the Hanshin Tigers win again, then we know that it was the river pollution. ;)

We had hamburgers on the kyuushoku menu recently, and about a third of the students in the class I ate with didn't seem to know how to eat them.

sounds like when you go to a farm here in Germany that also owns a restaurant and you see burger on the menue, than order it and they serve it with a fork and knife and also put long toothpics in them so they won't fall over. I allways only knew burger from cheap places like mcdonalds before but than my mom was like "My friends recomended a restaurant wich is on a farm" and well that was weird as if the store owner never saw a fastfood burger before and than just build one like high quality food lol

The character in the movie they're watching gets freaked. It turns out he's been stalked the whole time by the Colonel! Yes, Colonel Sanders of KFC fame! From what I understand, the Colonel pops up in a lot of places in Japanese pop culture. *** *** Ah, don't tell the Japanese that in the US KFC is NOT considered a good fast food brand. If anything, the most popular chicken place in the US right now is Chik Fil A. Where I live, Cane's (another chicken place) is also very popular. It's very hard to get food from Chik Fil A or Cane's locally because the drive thru's are always packed. They've gotten VERY popular through the pandemic. KFC has really deteriorated in the US and is probably the last place I'd buy any chicken from. They don't cook it well. Heck, I think Popeyes is at least ten times better than KFC! Some franchises are better overseas than they are in North America. It's possible they're doing things better with KFC in Southeast Asia and Japan than they are in North America. In the US, KFC is definitely not good! McDonald's has also seen much better days in the US than what it is now. I will go to a LOT of places before I'd eat at McDonald's!

French Canadians call it "McDo" too. We sound the Mc portion a little differently though, more like an Irish Mc than a Scottish Mac (more "mick" than "mack"). I'm not 100% sure if European francophones do too. Their slang tends to be pretty different from ours.

Kentucky Fried Chicken has been called "KFC" in the United States for at least 20+ years now. They rebranded to reduce the association with "fried" since people associate that with unhealthy eating. People still eat fried food anyway! The real reason "KFC" has declined in the States is because the quality of the food at KFC in the US (at least) has gone down. New competition from other chicken food chains like Chik Fil A and Cane's has really destroyed the stranglehold KFC has on fast food chicken. Frankly, I think the other fast food chicken places sell better-tasting product and KFC doesn't seem to be trying to make its reputation better in the US. I see packed drive thrus at both Chik Fil A and Cane's but KFC always has light traffic. CFA and Cane's became much more popular during the pandemic and you have to wait a while if you decide to buy food at one of their locations. People enjoy some of the wacky commercials from the US branch of KFC better than the food but the commercials are not helping food sales at KFC at all!

My dad was born in Hokkaido back in 1956! At that time the U.S. still had some personal stationed at the base as you could imagine since it had not been that long since the war ended, being that my grandpa was in the army they lived at the base at Hokkaido and in that time my dad was born, I doubt Hokkaido looks the same as it did back then, but some day I’d like to visit the place where my dad was born!

@@MrsEats I’m so glad I’m subscribed to your channel! I just learned so much about my grandpa, to answer the question of if the base is still there is a strong yes! In fact it’s the JSDF’s primary base in Hokkaido in the city of Chitose and monitors the maritime borders between Japan and Russia, which thus explains why my grandpa was stationed there since my grandpa was in the ASA or army security agency and being it was during the Cold War my grandpa gathered intelligence from the Soviet Union, also another fun thing I learned is back in 94 an OVA titled 801 T.T.S. Airbats took place at Chitose Air base, I’m so happy I know more about my grandpa now! He passed away when I was 14 and thus I didn’t really get to know him, but now after his passing I’m glad I’m still learning more about him I just wish he was still here so he could tell me all his many stories(that aren’t classified of course haha) also thank you for the recommendation when I visit Chitose someday I’ll make sure to go to Otaru and see and taste all that I can!

Love the cultural comparison videos! I am still surprised and a bit confused about a KFC Christmas but it's definitely one of the best things about Japan for me. Whenever I tell people from Japan that I meet that I am from Kentucky, this is always what they ask first. KFC may not be my favorite food (especially with all the local places here for fried chicken) but it's still a taste of home! Until I saw the commercials someone sent me I never understood the term 'Kentucky Christmas' (I was very confused as to why KFC came off as a Christmas tradition here at first) but I TOTALLY get it now. Side note: FAKKIN is also just a beautiful combination of words.
