Furniture Thrifting Day In My Life In Japan!

[@farhanakhanam6512]

"it's comfy but ugly". the best catchphrase ever I heard

[@jellystualy]

video started with kitty, immediately liking

[@Nerdstroma19]

“Erica doesn’t want to be featured, soooo-“ Erica’s Pita Sando! Erica’s pants!!! ERICA! 😂

[@samacaron]

LOL i was thinking the same thing

[@chileeeeee]

I guess her friend decided that filming wasn’t too bad after seeing Mikan do it irl and decided to join in a little bit

[@satera4527]

I want to go thrifting so badly but there’s not a lot of thrift shops in my area ;-; watching thrifting videos is my way of coping 🤧

[@magicmyth2635]

SAME probleme, do you also somethings feeling jealous watching this video's i love them, but these video's at same time make me wanne go thrifting in a country without these kind of thriftshops😭

[@graceebow]

same and also im in UK so there is no “thrift shops” they are “charity shops”

[@tinkaball8228]

I dont know what part of the chair you find ugly. i mean if its just the overall shape, or the colour etc. but if its about the green fabric: maybe you can try to disassemble the chair and stable a new cute fabric around the chair upholstery. takes some work but this way the chair doesnt go to waste and can choose the fabric so it might turn out pretty cute

[@dollfacedotcult]

y’all done did it. i’m going thrift shopping

[@andreeamirela635]

this got me so excited for furniture shopping, since I'll have to move out of the dorm room soon. too bad we don't have shops like these here

[@akia9873]

your literally my favorite youtuber ily!

[@farhanakhanam6512]

the video began with the cat eating can food, the best mood ever.

[@spacemono5419]

im also middle eastern and that restaurant looked so cute!! i love how they had items from the culture and is sharing it in Japan! PS the nougat is also eaten in my culture and we call is gaz :)

[@princessjadie]

15:00 If you want a wooden crate like that, you could go ask around in supermarkets or wine stores. I asked our local supermarket if they had any crates left and they just went to the wine cellar and got one for me. I placed a pillow in it and my dogs sleep in it. ^^ Not every store will just give them away, but you can always ask!

[@ginawilkolak7492]

Items in Japanese thrift stores look like they’re in SUCH better condition than thrift stores in the States 😂

[@katinagreyhat]

I always feel like in the states to find things that aren't broken or super dirty you have to go to antique stores and those are always way too expensive

[@rz1974]

Japanese people generally take very good care of their belongings, it's a cultural thing

[@JoyKawaiimo]

FACTS FACTS

[@KismetLizard]

That dress at the beginning is so like...casual classic Lolita

[@battenburg6089]

Oh wow, the Le Creuset sets. I used to work in Homesense and I famously dropped a box of these and destroyed them all. About £400 worth. GOOD TIMES.

[@mikanmandarin]

💀💀💀💀

[@blinkarmy8543]

I want to go to Japan one day I love blossom and sakura trees there🥰😍

[@jeevika4763]

furniture thrifting video? by mikan??? NOT? IKEA? blessed.

[@juliabec8801]

Hey Mikan!! I've been watching your videos since I was maybe 10 or 11 :) I would watch them on my moms phone my dad's phone anywhere! Your videos are so so comforting and whenever I'm sad I watch them!! My dream was, and is to learn Japanese and visit Japan, just like you❤💜

[@anastarr2116]

I love thrifting. That is one thing I did not do in my travels but would love it.

[@ShadeLeeds]

That Peanuts picture at 19:22 😭 There were so many things I saw I wouldn't have been able to resist. Loved the video!

[@emmarose3331]

I swear pretty pastel please and mikan share the same brain, they both posted at the same time😭

[@mikanmandarin]

To be fair Alex has given me a lot of KZbin advice HAHA I’m not surprised

[@emmarose3331]

@@mikanmandarin I love how both of you guys make thrifting vids now since it's such a sustainable way to get cute clothes and other stuff! Makes me wanna go thrifting with my friends

[@AnzuMiruku]

WHAAAT. My family owns that EXACT wall-hanging Atlas clock at 5:33! It was my grandmother’s when she lived in Germany. That’s wild seeing it in a Japanese thrift shop!

[@ChelseaMaeStage]

What cute finds! Love how you put it together!

[@vee-wi8vh]

THE CAT IN THE FIRST SECOND OMG WOW

[@mikanmandarin]

Maple!!! She’s a streetcat I take care of but soon I’ll be getting her proper help so look forward to that video ❤️❤️

[@shasumin_1853]

Japan thrift shopping seems so much fun

[@kalopsia_3533]

Sooo happy, Mikan uploaded! 🥰

[@chrisg7891]

That light fixture you got for the kitchen LOOKS FABULOUS !! It was a perfect fit, and the price was so reasonable. Getting to go along with you on your day was fun too!

[@SvengelskaBlondie]

"so much fun going furniture thrifting" Almost every single furniture ive owned have been from thrift stores, only exception I can remember was the previous computer chair that I bought new from IKEA as well as a few shoe stands (which I use as bases for GPU mining rigs).

[@rainycloud828]

I can't wait to visit Japan one day, and hope I'll get the chance to meet you. Love your video. Sending love and support from Morocco

[@kaycesayswhat]

Can u appreciate how she hearts everyone's comments as much as she can

[@m0neyyx]

Ahh Yess mikannn, I was waiting for an upload ilyy❤

[@inesfigueiredo9933]

I think I am addicted to this channel, I force my boyfriend to watch the videos with me hahaha our favourite video is the "Things you should never do in Japan" we think it's a masterpiece.

[@User66780q]

And finally a video from mikan 😊

[@tobisummer1571]

idk if the shape is what you find ugly, or the color, but it's actually super easy to put a new fabric onto a chair cushion and change the whole look!

[@sofialuisa6851]

I'm in love with your channel so much i'm literally addicted!! your videos have recovered me so much emotionally

[@devonnakey1989]

It has come...I was waiting for this video!!! ILYSM😭💕

[@bella-fi9xw]

take a shot everytime mikan says "cute" lololol you'll be drunk as hell ~~~

[@lavender7660]

i really like thrifting videos cause they give me warm feelings somehow

[@dreamer6943]

I hope you got the green floral plates set, they were lovely

[@andrealouise4073]

ha! I have that cat watering can...I bought it new, from a Japanese toy/cat store in Australia

[@finnfawnn]

Aaaaaa I can’t wait to visit all these places one day when I move to Japan🥺❤️ manifesting it

[@okaokadu]

11:10 "This is so cute for kids... or meee" extremely relatable sentence right there lol

[@gayatoro2332]

Go back and get the DEVIDER! ;-) You could use it to optically separate your living space and couch from the kitchen part ;-) I think it would not only look nice (given the height of the devider is hight enough to hide the kitchen part behind it), but also make your TV/Chill space so cosy, because of the material the devider is made of! AND, the colour suits the colour of the fabric of your sofa/couch) :-)

[@ivy5554]

Please do more of these, it was so fun to see everything the stores had and your reactions to everything. 😍😍

[@HongChiinternationalcouple]

Thrifting in Tokyo is one of my favourite things to do !!

[@inkz0]

YAAYAYAYA OUR KAWAII QUEEN IS BACK

[@asture598]

I've watched so many of your videos it makes me happy and excited to go to Japan I'm 13 and in 5 years when I'm 18 I'm going, so I watch your videos to keep me entertained

[@miraperez2223]

[@joshuabeech-maher8729]

I just bought a silver and oak? Hairbrush for $4 and the opshop [thrift store] the things you find could be heirlooms.

[@pauld2810]

It is so bizarre seeing Tully's in Japan. Tully's started in Seattle (where I live). It used to in almost as many places as Starbucks. Then it disappeared. And now I see it in Japan videos

[@Nakiimushi]

That moominfigure was so cute! My childhood 😭

[@Lisa-tb2rn]

I loooove thrifting clothes and furniture. When I moved last year I basically got everything secondhand. Unfortunately, because of Covid I could only look on online platforms. Your videos makes me itch to go to stores again!! Also, that cat teapot is adorable!

[@hi5the31s3]

If there are any good affordable thrift stores in london that anyone could recommend, please do! It looks so fun!!!! ALSO THE TEA CUPS! They are SOOO CUTE!!!

[@nitalohkare278]

This made me really want to go thrifting, also the cat teapot/watering can was so cute. Have to plan this but also when times are better I'll probably need another suitcase 'in case' I find things I like next time I'm in Japan. Also.. the cats 😻

[@auggis161]

Omg the middle eastern food looked so yummy at the end😍

[@LivingMyLife1991]

I was about to loose it, when you said that the rotary phone was a clock. Thank god that the friend pointed it out. 😂😂🤣🤣 Big thrift stores are so much fun. There are only small thrift stores where I live and the selection is not that great either 😢.

[@Circusmaid]

Oh my, if you'd vlog going to a thrift shop every week i would NOT be mad😍😍

Thanks for sharing ❤️ Love from Nepal 🇳🇵

[@israben5225]

i love your video mikan

[@Moaritsu]

Wish I could shop there and teleport everything back to the US. Lol when I left Japan after studying abroad I had too much stuff, I had to throw stuff away in the airport bc of the weight limit. no joke 🙃 (just shampoo stuff basically)

[@leenabheekhun]

My thrifting heart is so happy right now. Omg I wanted to buy so much 🤩🤩💙

[@gurandomasutajoji858]

Thrifting is always a great time I like to try more now atleast once a month or every two to go never know what little knick knacks u can find for the low or even gifts for others and blasts from the past! Hahaj 🎃💗👍 loved the trips and clips

[@saneill17]

Do these stores offer delivery to your apartment? How do you get the larger items home otherwise without a car? Or do people hire a man with a van ? Moving to Japan and would love to thrift some of my furniture if I can!

[@carolin2544]

That is an awesome haul! Your new kitchen lamp looks amazing! Also wow, how awesome are the prices in Japanese thrift stores?? Here, you can find IKEA lamps for like 2€ cheaper than at IKEA (and of course they have marks and a thick sticky dust layer 🙄)... But clothing and smaller items are usually cheap, so thrifting is still fun 😊

[@RS-ux2kq]

Yes I love this video! Cx 💕

[@bbshrimp]

THIS WAS SO FUN omg I miss thrifting so much aaaaa

[@Bribrilalalala]

OMGGG YOU NEED TO DO ANOTHER HOUSE TOUR, it looks so cute in there tho ☺️ hope your doing well mikan

[@littlegachamaker445]

Your kitten is so cute!

13:14 did I hear Red Velvet's "Umpah Umpah" in the background?

[@skylarblus754]

21:54 i dont know what language this is but if its arabic he just made him say "im crazy" but in the feminine way the masculine way would be "ana majnoon" (انا مجنون)

[@Mabbynabi]

Waaaa new vlog!!! Thank youuu

[@jaimmyderas1744]

Could you tell us the name of the thrift store you went to buy didn’t blog?
