I honestly got into it after discovering genres like French Touch Filter House and Future Funk/Vaporwave Idk if im the only one

I love how every youtuber emphasizes the word "billion" like a Bond villain.

I first arrived in Japan in late 1978. I was immediately taken by songs by Judy Ongg, Kobayashi Sacheko, Nakamori Akina and others, not to mention Japanese jazz by artists such as Watanabe Sadao. I went to bars to sing Japanese enka and pop songs to learn Japanese more quickly. The late 70s and early 80s were a wonderful time for Japanese music in a variety of genres.

And then america was jelous of japan and saw japan growth as a threat. There was alot anti japan in america

None of these companies are places anyone wants to work at in any country, to be fair.

The work environment in Yodobashi sounds like what you'd experience working for GameStop.

i was expecting what is the lowest paying job area in japan like retailer cashier waiter farm supporter or construction builder. You mostly cover companies that seems not really legit

Sounds like the USA today

even the word salary men is a japanese way of spelling and it means officeworker for english it actually has its own word called salesmen which is is the actual definition ofr people who work in the office

Japan need more robots for work

12-13 hrs shifts lol This is common in construction. Here in the USA .

Why is a Japanese commercial in English

I'm Japanese who live in the Tohoku region, and a Japanese person living in Kobe, whom I follow on X, told me that they had an unpleasant experience with rude staff at a restaurant in Kyoto. This made me certain that it was the right decision for my high school, which is known for its major school trips, to avoid Kyoto and choose Tokyo instead. In any case, Kyoto has many advantages in terms of increasing income, not just for tourism. Therefore, the governor, mayor, and politicians in Kyoto should be desperate to come up with solutions.

Try Asia and open JP company here we will see how so called culture destroyed

I born in 2005 but I love japnese old song city pop❤️❤️❤️

I think it's mainly to do with the fact that many of these kids didn't grow up listening to funk, r&b and disco songs in the '70s-'80s and just listened to anime and video games music. I cringe whenever I see comments of people saying this music is "superior" to western music, I'm like no baby they're imitating what western artist; particularly Black ones; were doing at the time. The world would be nothing without contributions from Black people.

Isn't westerners listening to city pop a 2014-18 thing?

Dentsu should be top 1. In general press/sales/marketing agencies are the absolute worst

The stock market is definitely picking up pace right now, but I still think investors should be careful at this time. I'm actually a newbie in this space, so I'm open to hearing other investors' take on this.

What is worse is that there is an increasing number of obnoxious tourists...

japan hasnt ran the world's largest railroad anything in 10 years. the best railway is in China.

❤🙏

And here we are Trumpenomics 2.0 😅

Well at least Virtua Fighter is confirmed to come back

What is the very first track?

Wait... Theres a subway in Kyoto? Where? I'm serious lol. I thought it was buses or those little old limited trains or nothing. I will say though - I'm here right now, and the buses have been excellent... Even if they weren't for my tourist ass 🥲

City Pop is coming back for the same reason 80s and 90s culture came back in the US: it harkens to a time considered "better" by the newer generation. Japan and the US were arguably at their peaks in the 80s, and so GenZ and late Millenials feel nostalgic not for the music itself, but for a time they wish they could have been a part of.

Pop and dance music have been obsessed with rhythm for the past 30 years, while ignoring harmony for the most part. City pop has very strong harmonic hooks, which now feel fresh and novel again.

I'm a member of Gen Z, and got into City Pop through a compilation of 80s City Pop songs I stumbled across while looking for background music. I love 80s New Wave and Synth Pop. City Pop combined that with elements of jazz, funk and lots of disco elements which I really found pleasant to listen too. I don't speak Japanese either, so I found listening to music in Japanese was more relaxing as I wasn't constantly analysing lyrics as I do with songs in English.

I was hired as data center operator in japan NxC via ASIST agency. Being a contractor is a big compromise already yet underpaid. Now they even not fulfilling mine contract of after obtained the jlpt n2, i am supposed to be transferred to System engineer role as formerly i worked as cloud engineer in Malaysia, thats the reason i signed up the job. I need help in labor laws but the local office didn't being helpful at all, anyone can help me😢

Short answer: Because it's good. Long answer: Because it's goooood~

imagine you are on the supra and drifting in the middle of night with japannese city pop music

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $120k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

28:27 bouncy bouncy :d

The thing is what's happening in Japan is what will happen to other and developing countries as well. So if they can't survive their problems how can we?

ただの日本語コメントやけどみんな英語でコメントしとるからなんか気まずいな

i don't get it. i used to live in kyoto for 5 years. the subway would always take me to where i wanted to be, which was sanjo, shijo, and gion shijo. i never noticed any inconvenience. even when i lived in shiga prefecture, i would transfer at yamashina station which gave me convenient access to the aforementioned stations.

At somepoint seems switzerlands and austrians ticket system are the most advanced in the world along with the train themself they are the most advanced in the world

Japanese workers need to grow a pair of balls and go out on strike.

City Pop 4 Ever and Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The reason Japanese companies get away with poor treatment of employees, is because the system does not allow quitting and joining a different firm. So people are pretty much captive where they first get hired.

This video started with bodies being outlined in chalk. So, which companies are most successful in actually killing their employees through overwork?

Midnight Pretenders

the "laffer curve" was so aptly named! 🤣

Watching in my 40s... And only just starting investing I feel so behind!
