I was so shook when the Moroccan/Japanese guy came on because I’m also the same mix, and grew up in the UK too!! It’s such a random combination that I always get excited discovering others like me, and am so interested in how others navigated being from an Arabic or Muslim background + Japanese (both sides of my family were quite ignorant about the other, and I had my Moroccan cousins calling me the “Chinese cousin” 😅). Some challenges I faced when moving to Japan was that I felt my Japanese friends tried to “white-wash” me by calling me their English friend, when I got older and met new people in bars they’d be so brave in asking if Morocco was a dangerous country, or when I told them Morocco was located in North Africa they’d try to “compliment” me by saying that I look European and not African and say stuff like “you’re so pale though!” Like… I know they’ve probably never met a Moroccan person but the ignorance was mind blowing. So then I’d be like “Aw shit, Moroccan woman are so beautiful I hope I look more Moroccan and get darker skin when I grow up

[@lenya2004]

I have had a few moroccan students, neighbours and friends, male and female, arab and amazigh. I think, as a maghrebi being "white" is generally "better" and has advantages (depending where you live ofc). If you look too amazigh for example, people face dicrimination from "whiter" moroccans and other ethnic arabs. I had toy scold students for belittleing berber (amazigh) people, because where we live, they are foreigners themselves and face racism/islamophobia, therefore should know better. Also, as there are many criminal moroccan men in France or Netherlands, etc. in the public eye (in continental Europe at least) (white) people have negative stereotypes towards moroccan (men). I understand that you dont have these stereotyping problems in Japan, so be happy that they "just" see you as their "English (which is not that off tbf) or African friend" - - but your family members being ignorant towards each other is sad because Ive met some of the most sweet moroccan people and I wish many more had this kind positive experience with Moroccans.

[@lovaneygurung4373]

Good for you but we don't like the diversity nobody wants a mix thing

[@GuardaGuada]

I really enjoy that too. The bone structure the Italian girl had was really interesting

[@Movs.]

It's not that unique. Basically every mix of asian and white produces a dark haired, dark eyed person, who looks mostly causcasian with caucasian features/jawlines but has eyes that are a bit off and they usually don't grow as tall. Another example of outbreeding depression and mostly the unwanted genes being passed down. It's an improvement for an asian because now someone in their family is tall, less round face with better jawline, and an epicanthic fold/bigger eyes than what they would have had. But that is a loss to a white family. That same person in that white family is shorter on average, has smaller eyes, black hair/black eyes etc. They could have easily had the same beautiful faces, just with more diversity of hair and eye color if they weren't mixed in the first place. And you'd be hardpressed to find anyone who thinks caucasian eye colors aren't more beautiful than just having black eyes. Ironically, "diversity" is killing the actual diversity of TRULY unique looks that humans have. And once we mix we cannot unmix. Mixing results in losing diversity in the long run, you aren't thinking in the long term, so to you this appears diverse because you aren't used to it. When in actuality it's nothing more than a path to the total and complete opposite. If everyone decided to mix tomorrow and continue that trend for the next 3 generations, you would wipe out gingers completely, blonde hair, blue eyes for the next generations. And that would be permanent. You cannot unmix. And you cannot ever mix your family line back to looking 99% white if there are no white people left to be with. This is not as much of an issue for blacks. When a black person has a mixed child, the child almost always looks black passing if not just straight up black. With asian/black, they just look like black people with slightly different/thinner eyes

What an incredible video - I almost felt like I was in the 3000s, and this were literally the World as we then experienced it, futuristic, edgy, and full of respect yet homogenous in a sense.

[@Yuji-i7g]

I’m enjoyed watching your show. I was surprised when I see Kemio san. He is both a model and a talent.

[@ipaulosan]

Mina Okabe, Every Second, what a great song.

[@H99x2]

Interesting the Indians and Japanese, there seem to be more than I thought. Btw The flag at 18:42 is the Dutch flag (Netherlands) She said she was Danish, which is Denmark.

[@Shiva-nx1tn]

the Foreign minister of India also has a Japanese wife

[@whats-ur-problem]

​@Shiva-nx1tn I noticed this thing . India-east asia marriages are mostly india- japan. Same with india europe Mostly india-Russia

[@sleepdeprived9181]

Indian and Nigerian halfies look beautiful

[@professionalboycottservice7872]

only women. men not.

[@iambeautiful.soareyou8474]

@@professionalboycottservice7872 this makes no sense

[@dizzydazl]

OMG!!! Mina Okabe sings one of my favorite anime EDs! "Every Second" from A Condition Called Love! Her voice is so beautiful and soothing. It was so cool to see her as one of the interviewees.

[@NC-jl4tn]

These never get old. It is so interesting to me all of these mixes but one thing that I find really interesting is almost all of them speak english like Americans

[@saladspinner3200]

This are a bunch of very interesting people with whom I would have love to converse with myself! I also love the little things, like every single one of them changes general demure and gestures when continuing the conversation in Japanese. Even the way they look at the interviewer changes.

[@eciekoc]

All these people speaking 3+ languages! I'm so envious

[@acidspit14]

dutch girl at 6:00 reminded me when she said her different persionalities come out speakind different languages, its the same for me with my native dialect and dialect of my city, which I'm both fluent in.

[@claudia720316]

Exactly! Cannot agree with her more!

[@twestgard2]

The level of English fluency is amazing. Not just vocabulary and grammar, but near native accents and rapid, idiomatic delivery. And most people’s heritage is not from any English speaking background. Impressive.

[@elizabethanne462]

Lovely video!!! Made my day....seeing all these beautiful individuals speaking about their multicultural experiences.

[@neilpa]

This was actually really interesting. The half Indian and half Japanese women were 👍 👌

[@User-dodosoos]

Hey Takashi, your English is much more native like nowadays! Impressive!

[@maxancekyintooulie6592]

Hey, i'm french ! Thx for this video. I notice that it's the moms who are Japanese and it's the dads who travel! I'm French from Marseille and originally from Madagascar. Japanese culture appeals to me a lot, so why not go there one day and maybe live there!

[@Shasha-x7i]

Oui, c'est ce que j'ai remarqué aussi, les femmes japonaises se métissent beaucoup plus que les hommes japonais...

[@ruchirab6513]

half japanese is one of my favorite bands , i was searching them and this video came up , cool video actually. And yeah anyone who like very obscure or outsider music type of music give half japanese a listen lol.

[@DT-oq2tn]

The half Irish and half Indians were my favorites. I want to see more half and half people. It's cool.

[@rrdgz5355]

Holly, COW! These people look like movie stars. We need more half Japanese people in this world 😍 specially 🇮🇳 / 🇯🇵 mix

[@JiaHeeSee]

Indians are great!

[@Msal19]

This was beaituful to watch.

[@sallydaniel1023]

I love these videos ❤ it's fascinating to hear how the cultures blend and differ. These people are gorgeous

[@tienhernandez]

Crazy, I was watching this. I instantly recognized Mina Okabe, she’s an awesome artist !

[@emmaphillips3847]

So interesting. I love to see the result of different cultures and genetics coming together. Speaking so many different languages and each so uniquely stunning.

[@Tfe78xv3t]

Smashed this out the park Takashii. Awesome content 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@pandakeeper]

The half Japanese/Persian guy has such an interesting story.

[@arvindmishra9840]

The most fun guy 😂.

[@jurriaandejongh8677]

All I'm seeing are beautiful people with great stories. Great video.

[@kassimo2169]

Amazing interview, amazing mixes, amazing people 👏👏

[@ChaiTeaXyooj]

What an interesting mix of people! So cool!

[@sighswoons]

2:44 the only kid who has a Japanese dad and non-Japanese mom I've seen on this channel LOL. It's always the non-Japanese dad and Japanese mom combo

[@gerijokub7737]

The Filipino lady at the end was born to a Japanese dad as well.

[@chadwickreno8499]

Japanese guys keep taking Ls lol

[@chsyrp2437]

So...?

[@yo2trader539]

There are more international marriages with Japanese men than women. However, most of them are with neighboring countries. The exception is people who fit Japanese beauty standards in terms of personality and appearance. And there is a very long list of famous half people who have a Japanese father. TAKAHASHI Ran, SAKAI Gohtoku, and SAWAJIRI Erika to name a few.

[@JaziX5]

I've noticed that too. It's almost always the mother that's Japanese, which could be saying something about Japanese men if that many Japanese women prefer interracial relationships.
