imo, without more brutal methods, society will always change. But don't think it always follows one direction. Younger generations will always strive to be different from past generations. As they too need to stand out (in history). Its not uncommon (for say) grand parents to be more liberal. Only for their grandchildren to be more conservative in thinking. And vice versa.

There is so much video content about modern life these days, it would be easy for future generations to look at very specific parts of daily life in different places around the world. Globalisation killed a lot of diversity globally ( eg every high street is kinda the same in the Western world for example ). Smart phones from c. 2008 forward really changed things. 1998 vs 2018 I think would be as big a gap as 2018 vs 2088.

John Nathan who directed this one, is a famous translator of Kenzaburo Oe and Natsume Soseki. He recently wrote a biography of the latter. If you want to know more about about this film, check out his memoir called Living Carelessly in Tokyo and Elsewhere.
Thank you very much! It's incredible to watch these kinda videos.

Listening to the great grandmother speak about the children made me sad. But at leats those great grandchildren will have this record always of how much it meant to her to have them.
I first came to Japan in 1978 - just a few years after this was made. I'm still here. One of the things you'll notice if you pay attention - back then nobody bleached & dyed their hair. No bleach blondes. Those who had slighly lighter hair color dyed it black because they didn't want to stand out.

As interesting as it is to see how much the appearance of Tokyo and its people has changed, I think it’s just as fascinating to recognize aspects that haven’t changed at all.

this is a gem of a documentary to dig up from 1975 tokyo wow. had to jot down Yanaka in google maps for my japan trip as i learned via this video that it was one of the wards that were left intact after WW2. with that being said, what i found wild was at 16:20 the younger brother is just smoking a cigarette indoors with two literal months old infants right to the right of him!!

This was both beautiful and depressing. This feels like it wasn't that long ago, but even the youngest people in this video except for the baby are in their 70's now, most of them have probably long left us. Life's a b.... and then you die. Aging is a disease.

deflation is not that much of a problem, actually. It's a good thing that Japan keeps output growing to match increased demand. It would be much worse more people and less production, therefore rising prices and more poverty.
I wonder if to the native Japanese speakers the Japanese they speak in this video sounds different to the Japanese that is spoken today just like the English that was spoken on British or American TV sounds different compared to today.
