What is happening to Japan?

Is Japan cooked? I’ve seen a lot of changes here in the last few years and things seem to be getting worse.

  1. Japan is over-romanticized. It's a wonderful country and I want to you come here and visit with realistic expectations. If you want to see more of what other YouTubers don't show here, please subscribe.

  2. It's graffiti LOL. It is everywhere in the Western world from Germany, the UK to here in the US. At least they are not homeless people shooting up on the streets like there are here

  3. People have unrealistic expectations of Vancouver too, but I can tell you as a resident there are many parts that are absolutely horrifying. What I'm saying is every major city has issues, and from what I saw of Tokyo and Japan in general when I was there last December, it is far and away the nicer country.

  4. In the 50s and 60s you secular Godless atheists and feminists in the West wanted feminism and women's rights. You got it, and then spread it to the rest of the world, which led to declining birth rate, low population and a situation where there's not enough people to provide crucial services. You can't have your cake and eat it too, darling. Enjoy the destruction of Japan and similar countries while the muslims, hindus, africans, China and Russia celebrate. Well done!

  5. You're saying 'oh my gosh' to graffiti and then show clips of 'Free Gaza'. Lol come on, that is the right kind of thing to be plastered everywhere, including Japan where GPIF has 1trln yen invested in Israeli assets. This is some weird, nitpicking content to have when there are much bigger problems in Japan. Free Gaza!

  6. You think that's bad, come to Portland, Oregon, USA and watch people shoot up heroin and/or smoke fentanyl four feet from you in any given location within city proper. Or druggies/gang members assaulting people for no reason, stealing their cars with no repercussion, etc. Graffiti's nothing.

  7. I spent 2 weeks in Japan recently and I as already expecting things to be not so great. I was shockeed at just how bad it is. It's a complete dystopia. The people are struggling mentally. You can see it if you look closely. This is not something that appeared overnight. I have 0 interest in ever returning. It's really a miserable place in my opinion.

  8. Japan is over-romanticized for sure and the hollywood image most foreigners from the west have is just that, make believe . It's a wonderful country to visit, Im not sure you can beat a vacation here , I usually recommend to Americans, Egypt and Japan as the best places to go for them to visit. but living here is a complete different story ( been living here since 2005. well part of the year here and part of the year in the USA, I have homes in both countries ) . I do not recommend living here if you need money. Retirement can be great , if you can afford it ( most cannot ). Anyways, the problems Japan faces now are many and every single one is and was made………… by the japanese themselves. Do not feel bad for the Japanese, the hell most of them live in, the crappy life they live, is well deserved as its 100 percent their own fault. So never ever feel bad for them.

  9. One of your dumbest videos to be honest. Tokyo has always been like that, might have been even worse back then. Stop riding on this "Japan is declining" trend and "Oh its another youtuber/foreigner who is doing blabla" . i honestly expected better of you.

  10. In every country and every culture, …why is it that the very worst and least of the citizenry inflict the SAME illiterate monkey-scribble on public places and private property.
    What those kind of people REALLY want to do is smear feces on the wall. Same effect…

  11. Problem is money. Japan has ran out of money and that's causing lots of problems. It will only get worse, sadly. The great days of Japanese electronics industrial prowess and billions the gov used to get from them, they are gone. So many great Japanese companies are dead now.

  12. The internet is bringing the world 🌎 closer to one united place, good (LGBTQ acceptance etc) and bad ( graffiti on walls etc) culture… i blame the internet 😒
