  1. @zUJ7EjVD  work life balance isn't solely a western thing. Look up Karoshi and all the rather sad cases associated with it

  2.  @cinnamon-3047  he is not praising anything about that resolve

  3. Japanese salaries are lower, but it also costs less to live in Japan than it does in the US, and yeah its great not being able to rely on cars to get anywhere or do just about anything. Oh and Japan's healthcare is pretty solid.

  4. $100k doesn't even buy a shack in many places, and our house costing $250k still needed a ton of work too

  5.  @cinnamon-3047  the poiny of the ff reference is that the game is only good because people were willing to throw away their personal lives at it. He wouldn't have brought it up if it weren't to critique it

  6. he pointed out the "xenophobic" as an extreme generalization foreigners make about Japan. Japanesse people are proud of their culture, that doesn't mean they hate you for being different, they're just confused or just cautious about people they don't know about

  7. its a generalization based on social media posts of cheap houses for sale in Japan...

  8. I somewhat disagree with this take. People in other parts of Asia, and notably Africa and and South America raise children fine in small spaces. Its nice to have space for a toddlers to run about, but Japan does public spaces like this very well. You don't need a McMansion for 1 kid, as many ameircans tend to think either

  9. someone kinda gets it

  10. maybe your boss wants to avoid telling you something that may affect your performance in a negative manner?

  11. japanese cars are also taxed heavily by dimension+extremely narrow roads and parking spaces so they have to be well designed or else they literally wont fit on their roads

  12.  @isaza5716  thats rich because he is very much an immigrant
    2
  13. yall keep missing the point; he is using this as an example to point out absurdity in Japan
    2
  14. even they had your anime waifus of choice the game would fail regardless because nobody wants a paid shooter in the era of an overabundance of free shooter type shit

  15. this would be a good choice everywhere if you didn't feel the need to drive 80mph all the time

  16.  @ma.2099  ASEAN would be more warm towards China if china wasn't building bases on contested islands. not to mention routine violations of fishing waters

  17.  @Kismet13-qd9vm  the UK only took immigrants in large enough scales recently and wasn't really a multicultural society to begin with

  18. Do you mind saying what that is?

  19. oh wow, didnt know that would be illegal in Japan, huh @yaboicolleen

  20. id surmise thats only what hours are reported- a lot of Japanese will work unpaid overtime

  21. he is saying the people need to understand what made Japan great.....

  22.  @Mrqwertar  manuals in small cars are just more fun
    1
  23. dual clutches are terrible in normal driving- most people don't understand that their car has TWO clutches in an era many forget how to operate a manual. This leads to a lot of clutch wear and failure in dry DCTs. i just think all small cars should have manuals cuz they're simple and can make a 100hp honda fit feel it has 3x the power just revving it out and then downshifting in the corners and heel-toeing

  24. Its by design. To keep us poor in our quest for vanity

  25.  @cmmartti  its why cheating is rampant in japan. Im no expert but id also wager its one of the causes of why less and less people are getting married and having kids too.

  26. with all the repairs needed its still cheaper than a fixer-upper house people will buy in my area- to flip again
    1
  27.  @starmechlx  cheaper than new orleans? thats crazy. if you don't mind me asking, how much were you paying there?
    1
  28. some pretty disgusting behavior and rhetoric being said around china and unfortunately it lumps many unaffiliated people in

  29. things are definitely changing in Japan- consider the new laws about kasu-hara, where employees now have more protection against rude customers trying to mess with non-confrontational staff

  30. trial by fire by booking a flight to japan and practicing broken japanese on the locals

  31.  @davespriter  facts, infnite GDP growth is not necessary, but the comment thinly veiled xenophobia (ironic given the nature of the video) also even if Japan stopped taking in foreginers this second, the population demographics of native Japanese are fucked-elderly people are already very numerous as their numbers are supposed to keep growing while there are less and less younger people to take care of them. Japanese people shouldn't have to "toughen" it up when they've been doing it for 3 decades at this point

  32. FL5 Type R has more space than a lot of small SUVs
    1
  33. americans have ego issues which is why they all need to drive big SUVs and pickup trucks ironically the new SUVs all borrow minivan design cues to expand space but still falling short of an actual minivan
    1
  34. its not bad most of the xenophobia is exaggerated. yes there are bad Japanese people, but as someone who grew up in multicultural NYC, there is still plenty of racism about.

  35. have you never run into Chinese tourists?
