How Japanese Food Vending Machines Work ★ ONLY in JAPAN

[@onlyinjapan]

If you’d like to learn MORE about this place, like what those white things are tired all over, watch the live stream I did on my second channel last week while filming this edited version. kzbin.infoGRhLDwCFUOo?feature=share

[@djfrostyice]

Hello how are you? I know it might be like winning the lottery if you see my message but I’ll give it a shot, I would like to ask you if you have any any idea where I could find the miniature Technics turntables in Tokyo. Any help would be great since I’m going to be there this weekend. Thank you for your time and all your videos are amazing.

[@jamesgaddis6189]

Do you do (English speaking) tours around Japan, like small groups? That would be awesome. Me and my uncle talk about the vending machines and what providences we'd like to visit. Pork cutlet sandwiches and noodles. Awesome. 😊

[@Nozinbonsai]

Tied all over. Maybe it was a tyre joke.

[@shythawks9549]

Welcome to Japan! Where vending machine meals are healthier than 80% of the food that is served in America 🤣

[@caiocc12]

It's almost a steal how cheap the foods are! Guy is maintaining what effectively is a museum AND a tourist attraction, I feel he really deserves more compensation for it!

[@lkiing]

Some of the food probably better than some restaurants outside Japan!

[@FlippytheMasterofPie]

It certainly helps that it's not his main source of income--he runs a tire shop and does this on the side.

[@paulhorn24]

The owner should start an online donation for his/their search for spare parts and maintenance of the old vending machines as it is in all our interest and all our benefit.

[@madriditunes7021]

It's not expensive, but it doesn't seem cheap to me, the hamburger in the video costs 280 yen here in Europe, most places like McDonald's sell it for 0.99€ 😂

[@paulhorn24]

@@madriditunes7021 The times for an Hamburger or Cheeseburger etc. under 1 Euro are gone, at least currently. I was surprised to see the famous Burger Fast Food Brands rising their prices quite strongly.

[@jason_from_canada]

Never underestimate the power of nostalgia. Those vending machines really are time machines helping to relive memories. It's great how Saito-san turned a hobby into an attraction with all his hard work! 12:07... It was perfect John and that look!! 🤣🍛👍

[@berndeckenfels]

I Wonder if the owner makes decent money or at least is able to pay the workers and suppliers (and cover the potential waste)

[@Nobe_Oddy]

I had NO IDEA you were STILL MAKING VIDEOS!!! I was subbed to the ORIGINAL 'Only In Japan' channel and then it totally changed and you were gone and then the channel just sucked after that..... I didn't know what happened or where you went and I had NO CLUE you were still making videos... UNTIL NOW!!!! I've been subbed to Strange Parts for quite a while and suddenly there you are!! And that's how I found out that I have been missing out on YOUR CONTENT THIS WHOLE TIME!!!! I am SO HAPPY Scott did his video on the 'Disneyland' of vending machines, because I re-discovered you and it's kinda like seeing an old friend you haven't seen in years!! I'm gonna have a blast going through all your videos that I missed. It's good to see you again John :) See you soon!!! :D

[@onlyinjapan]

Thanks for finding me and welcome to the real ONLY in JAPAN. It’s hard to start from zero again, but I have had so much support and as I get more content out, I hope more people find me again. Having good friends like Scotty helps a lot. Strange Parts is an incredible channel and concept! I hope he’s back here in Japan soon for more adventures. Now you have a lot of back episodes to binge one day \(^_^)/

[@CptFitzgerald]

I'm sorry to hear that you were deprived. It got REALLY bad- to the point where I was giving A/V advice in the comment section, the next video would fix some issues by the same person, and then they would just contract out another amateur gig worker. I even liked that Eastern European gal that was a host for awhile, but they just got rid of everyone.

[@Xi_Jinping_is_Pooh]

Oh yeah. No wonder I never see him in my feed again.

[@jennamahaffy9553]

Definitely go sub to only in japan go!! He is constantly streaming and just taking I'll ng us around tokyo or wherever he happens to be showing us thinks and teaching us Japanese here and there and facts usually about the things hes showing I learn so much over there that I'm sure is just because hes out there speaking to people and doing things like you would if you lived there lol very nice to watch when having a long day and needing an escape to Japan🖤 I'm not even a huge live stream fan but I or feels like walking with a friend, I especially love rainny season walks through the city🖤

[@CptFitzgerald]

@@jennamahaffy9553 I'm right there with the Japan escapism, sister

[@satishapnabazar1418]

Saw these vending machines in a lot of videos and heard a lot of popular youtubers complaining about some machine being offline, but you are the first to show the inner workings of it. Now we know the hard work that goes into maintaining them and why they need to be offline at times.

[@onlyinjapan]

Anyone who complains has no idea why they’re here and the work that goes into maintaining it. I hope this video can shed light into what makes this more special than just a vending machine 😉 it’s one man’s passion run with a lot of hard work.

[@anti-ethniccleansing465]

@@onlyinjapan You neglected to explain how things are heated up without a microwave in the machines. I’m still left here wondering how the food gets warmed up. Very frustrating. 😢

[@jpetrik155]

Great video! Got here from Strange Parts, what an interesting collab!

[@vandorb12]

Unexpected and very welcoming colab, for sure!

[@paulhorn24]

me, too

[@krazYFaic]

Don't know if it would be as interesting for everyone, but the company/companies supplying all the food for all these vending machines would make, at least, a nice follow up video. The amount of effort Japan does to keeping these going from Saito-san maintaining these to the finding companies to supply the food is just astounding.

[@Otoma]

Yes please! That's what I was asking myself all through this video

[@Chiapet2323]

This place should be protected since its part of japanese history when they where at the peak of innovation, only in japan you rock youre the only youtube creator who has managed to get an interview, explanation and behind the scenes from that place and still keep it educational and entertaining, hope you keep these videos going and show the real and nostalgic feelings of japan for more years to come

[@SharpBalisong]

Like a world heritage site.

[@ucc930ml]

The main focus of public interest in this topic seems to be the curiosity of the large number of retro vending machines, but the most significant feature is that the owner, Mr. Saito, does his best to make sure that visitors to his used tire shop enjoy their time waiting for their tires to be changed, and that those who come from all over the country to use the vending machines also enjoy their time there. This is why he has been reported in the Japanese media. He spends a lot of time and effort repairing old vending machines, they have even replaced the lights with LEDs to conserve electricity,making various efforts to save money so that customers can purchase products at low prices, preparing large quantities of food so that they can enjoy the delicious food, and maintaining the vending machines while dealing with the pranks of the mindless. It's great to serve others, even at the cost of one's own self. And John and his crew did a great job 👍

[@onlyinjapan]

I'm so happy you get this - what a lot of foreign KZbinrs going here completely miss is the WHY and HOW - and THAT is the real story. If Saito-san didn't have this drive and passion for resurrecting these vending machines, none of it would exist so I home more people have a greater appreciation for what he's built and visit to support his effort to keep the past alive in these machines for us to experience. Thank you!

[@APW1498]

Fascinating! Blows away any other video about this vending machine park John. You get to feel the passion of the owner and the real story behind it. Can’t stop watching the curry machine! Unbelievable!

[@onlyinjapan]

I think the story is Saito-san more than the machines. They’re a product of his love, passion and dedication - because when I hear his side, it changes the way to look at the vending machine. It did for me :)

[@shythawks9549]

Not only is that man nice, and has a vending machine park, but has old school bbs wheels that I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR, FOR 5 YEARS

[@JustinSevenTwo]

It's almost incomprehensible how much work it must require to keep all of the different foods stocked, and fresh in so many machines! Not to mention keeping all these arcane mechanisms working. I truly hope he sees enough business to sell through most of his food and keep the site alive for years to come. This is really a marvel I'll need to see for myself if I ever make it back to Japan

[@CptFitzgerald]

John, I cannot tell you this enough times: this show is so good and upsettingly wholesome. Coca-Cola in a glass bottle is God tier. I share the sentiments with Saito-san that restoring old things and bringing them back to life is a holy act. I could sense the Kami emanating from the machines just looking at them on this video.

[@onlyinjapan]

Seeing the omikuji tied to the ceiling and poles, it almost looked like a shrine to me! If Scotty had one more day here …

[@anti-ethniccleansing465]

Kami?

[@pedrozatravel]

The work that goes into maintaining these machines is amazing.

[@edfranklin2]

Great topic! A frequent Japan visitor over 40 years I couldn’t figure out why these machines were disappearing. Now I know, it’s the the rise of convenience stores! My first vending machine purchase years ago, based entirely on product name: Polcari Sweat.

[@savagefist1029]

THAT is AMAZING. I absolutely love that these aren't just sitting in a museum in a non-functional state but still preserved in a way they were meant to be used in their original release. It is so awesome to see machines with technology that pre-date microchips. This is the type of project that deserves extra funding from government or some charitable organization for preserving a piece of history. Respect to the owner for this accomplishment. Thanks for the fun video!!! 😁

[@h8GW]

Lol, the irony of that Kodak machine selling Fujifilm rolls...

[@Lil-Britches]

This was great, this is the first time I've ever seen a real behind-the-scenes of how these work. I loved all of it. I kinda understand how he feels about vending machines cause I'm obsessed with pinball. I love the mechanical sounds and moving parts. Nothing quite like it.

[@Warutteri]

The collab we didn't know we desperately needed!

[@onlyinjapan]

It's our 3rd or 4th video together, first one for Scotty on this new one. He was on GO! live streaming a couple of time and I took him around Akihabara before the pandemic but we will be at it again. .

[@ericsurf6]

Excellent job putting this video together John~! Love all of the nostalgia. Get Some~!

[@Sybato]

Thanks for interviewing the owner and getting his perspective, that was super cool.

[@bawintermage8351]

[@Prizemunna]

Wow! Its incredible that his hobby of collecting machines has expanded to something of that scale. It must take a lot of work to maintain all year round. Interesting to see the story behind a place like this.

[@ChrisHilgenberg]

The thing that astonished me is that many of the food machines requiring fresh deliveries still have companies around servicing owners of their machines with refills, we wouldn't have that in other places. That and the curry rice machine that's the last one of its kind in operation is something that should be of note for visitors visiting there.

[@onlyinjapan]

I asked about that. There’s a company in Ebina (Kanagawa, same prefecture) that provides him with it but it’s a special order, business relationship just to keep the machines going. It’s not just Saito-san. His passion fuels it though. There are a lot of players who don’t want to see them die out and THAT is a good story.

[@sanashi27]

I've seen a few other youtubers go to this place to show what stuff could be found in it and it always felt fascinating since the machines are old and there are even items in them that were also available from many years ago. Seeing this video of yours and hearing why the owner made this place a thing made it much more amazing. I do hope it last for a long time and they get more machines as time passes. It really is like a museum but unlike most museums where you can just look, here you can experience using the machines as well. Wish i could go to Japan to see this myself someday.

[@seanpfun]

It's always fun watching someone who's passionate about something talk about the the things they love; Saito-san clearly really cares about the place in history these machines have. Great video, can't wait to go back!

[@jkoadventures7401]

What a great place! Thank you to Saito-San for preserving history. Thank you for sharing this wonderful place & Hope this continues with future generations. 💞💞💞

This is so cool, love that they keep all the old tech alive. The machine with the Nixie tubes is insane. Hope it stays profitable forever.

[@carolineindacityphx]

Aww. This was so awesome. The curry looked delicious with the rice. 😋 The inner workings of these vending machines are genius. 🤯I love that Saito San is nurturing his hobby. You can tell that it is a labor of love. ❤ I can see that this passion of Saito San may eventually be his full-time job. The tires will pave the way, right? Thanks for sharing this, John! Certainly a sense of nostalgia for many.

[@stelioshz]

So nostalgic. I remember watching the old vending machine video, and watching something similar, after all these years.. It just hits deep.. Thank you John, thank you for all these years!

[@jkardez4794]

Just amazing ,and Saitosan is a genius and national treasure. I'd seriously want to go there and spend a few days eating from these machines all day long. Thanks John for showing...

[@clownearound5751]

I love the flash back to the vending machine restaurant you visited, it was one of the first videos I watched of yours and I’ve been hooked and following your content ever since! It was very interesting to see inside some of the machines and how they deliver the items. Another fantastic video John, best wishes to you and the family

[@JaelMartins-y7u]

Thank you for another amazing video. This was one of the coolest places so far! Saito-san is an absolute hero for building and maintaining this open air museum.

[@MinecraftLD10]

This is something as someone who has an interest ( and a job ) in electronics repair on one side and now game dev ( tech artistry ) on the other, learning how things operate and then using that information to repair other of the same thing is really interesting to learn about. You almost become a surgeon in a way, especially with larger machines like the ones at this lot, that require such care and attention to both what you know and how you do it, that you really do need that passion for it. Plus it helps while your working on ones that you can step to the left of you for a meal in-between, especially if your spending quite a few hours repairing one.

[@tessoy]

i’ve never even been to japan and i can feel the nostalgia. it is probably the design, the vibes, or the cutlery i don’t know. today apple launch a freakin vr device and yet somewhere in japan there’s a man taking care of machine dated back from where microwave haven’t even exist. great video mr. daub 👍

[@onlyinjapan]

I love the way you saw this, so true. I think one of the great thing about Japan’s too heavy demographics is the way the country can both accelerate the gas on progress and also spam the breaks and look back too. The concept of MOTTAINAI is strong and one of my favorites. Don’t be wasteful. If it still works, it can still be useful. Don’t take more than you need. These machines still work well and serve its purpose and we remember that with places like this. (I’m not getting that VR headset 😂 … yet)

[@dalejay8901]

@@onlyinjapan Don't worry it reportedly won't be available for purchase until early next year. (I think the lag time is to give all the Apple adicts time to save up $3,500. :)

Love this episode John. I love a good passion project, for you and for the owner of the vending machine park. I love to see this park expand and keep running. It will not doubt be a good place to hangout for everyone, who wants to try stuff they have never heard of, and those who want to just be taken back to the old days.

[@bc4yt]

Saito-san couldn't put it into words, but I think I can: these vending machines are the intersection of human history, innovation, industry, endeavor, and love. They nourish and sustain the customers and businesses that support them, and they are a window into human ingenuity and engineering, not just now but spanning decades. It's like looking through grandma's kitchen and grandpa's garage, seeing the gadgets and recipes they used to bless the family and build society over so many years, and they are STILL going! They really are remarkable, as is the collection. I hope someone else will take over after he retires, because this place is just, plain, cool.

[@MeThorvald]

This curry rice vending machine is totally amazing! The way it opens the bag blew my mind. So simple yet so effective :3 Actually I think that because those machines are on the 'analog' side of technology, it's even remotely possible to keep them alive. If it would be all about electronics, then it wouldn't be so "easy" to maintain. I dare to say it would be impossible for someone not affiliated with big companies.

[@GL-GildedLining]

Man, this place is really having itself _A MOMENT_ on KZbin lately. Deservedly so. 16:27 "I don't know how to put it into words, it's just more than my hobby." Everything in the world is transient, but some things deserve to stick around a while longer than others. This helps him stay in touch with society, with community, with history; it is the intersection of Wa and Iki, and he gets to be the showman, the shepherd, the tinkerer, and the teacher, to generations young and old. _Natsukashii, ne._ He's just a good man, making the world a better place. But then, so are you, John! Thank you for making the best video about this vending machine park I've seen yet. ^‿^ Now to go watch part two...

One of things that I love about these machines is that u can learn a lot of history from it: from machine itself, food/item that is made and ingredients/parts that are used to create them...especially if we are talking about food...u could probably find place (if is in Japan) where from ingredients are coming, maybe visit and have chance to talk to owner...like John did before....really really like this type of stories/content.

[@onlyinjapan]

They're almost all gone - sad. They can't get the parts, too costly to maintain and the food also has changed. Companies don't make it anymore, has to be done yourself. But it'll never go away as long as Saito-san and others with that dedication remain with an eye on the past nostalgia, which we love to live in as well. Thanks UFO Bob for watching!
