Japanese Vending Machines Exposed 日本の自動販売機

Vending machines are one of the first things visitors see when they arrive in Japan. Colorful, convenient and almost anything that can be sold in one.
In this episode, we look at a wide variety of machines. From fully digital drink machines to the unusual vending machine like canned hot ramen and bread-in-a-can in Akihabara, we tour Japan to check them all out. The why and how of vending machines.

Started with one video and now 20 Videos later and I’m still watching. Makes me miss my times in Japan. I was there during the 2011 tsunami and was part of operation Tomadachi on the Reagan. Japan will always have a special place in my heart for all their knowledge and humbleness and ways of life.

Thank you so much for your contribution and help at one of the hardest times we Japanese ever faced. We truly appreciate it and will never forget. Hope you’ll visit here again and have fun😁

[@nineteendesu]

I like that in Japan everything seems to be of much convenience. They're instant meals, drinks, and snacks for busy life yet the culture of making healthy home cooked meals is still there. While instant food in other countries seems to look as unhealthy as it really is...almost always sloppy. It doesn't seem that way in Japan.

[@msmith3407]

That instant food from those machines is processed garbage. Hot dogs, ramen noodles, rice balls and mystery meat. C'mon now!

[@DrSleep00]

It's sad that here in the U.K they would be smashed up,graffiti on them.

Same in the US as well. Why can't our countries be as respectful to vending machines as the Japanese?

I like the B&M bread with raisins... open can, slice, smother with butter, nuke it for fifteen seconds and drink milk with it... But I’m on a diet so have to refrain from things like that until I’m back down to my proper weight (which is hard to do, with a bad back most exercises I need and like are out of the question)...

[@msmith3407]

I have seen canned bread/cake as far back as the early early 80's. It was in a standard Campbell's soup sized can with a pull top. It popped right out with waxed paper around the body. 2 Varieties: Fruit cake, and chocolate with chocolate chips. Even us kids would not eat it. Dense, Greasy, and Disgusting, LOL!

When I was in Japan as a transfer student, one of the biggest things that stood out for me when walking the streets of Kyoto is how common these machines were. Virtually every street corner had a duo or trio of vending machines selling 100 - 300 yen tea or coffee shots.

[@carmcam1]

along the philosopher's path there is a beautifully geisha designed vending machine, i can't resist taking a picture.

[@Riceball01]

No kidding. I was in Kyoto a few months back and you couldn't walk very far without running into a vending machine. After vending machines, the next most common thing were convenience stores, it seemed like that in both Tokyo and Kyoto there were convenience stores every block or 2. My family and I were lucky in that the hotels we stayed in both Kyoto and Tokyo were close to lots of vending machines as well conveniences stores.

[@overpricedhealthcare]

how did you get through the hardships and language barrier?

[@gnnascarfan2410]

I was in Kyoto in July 2023 and can confirm. We stayed at a Ryokan and found two 100 yen machines selling 200ml Coke. That's 0.71 US dollars, good luck finding that anywhere in the West!

[@kdabaviation5032]

I wish they had these machines in the US

[@TheSunlitLeaf]

I think it would be great if we could have more different kinds. Our soda machines offer only a handful of sodas (not to mention that every medical facility in the tristate area seems to have made an exclusive deal with Pepsi and therefore only Pepsi products can be purchased no matter how many floors of the hospital you visit) and most vending machines offer the exact same array of snacks with a few variations. I did recently see an ice cream vending machine and I just had to use it because it was so cool :) At my husband's office they have one that has things the employees could eat for lunch if necessary, but I would love to see a change to that one because it is full of the sorts of things that make McDonalds sound healthy. I love the idea of being able to get rice balls and other healthy but delicious foods from a machine. It could really change America if we could have healthy vending machines!

Jasmin Villegas you can use prepaid Suica or Pasmo debit card,,its also good for trains,subways and in convenience stores,,no need to carry any change

[@Annie-gk4mj]

As of now you could just move the decimal 2 spaces to get a rough estimate of the price. So something that is 200 yen would roughly cost $2 in USD. Another example is an item that costs 2350 yen which would be VERY ROUGHLY $23.50 in USD. Higher the number the less close you'll actually be to the correct USD amount. Or if you can quickly do the math 2350 yen would be 2350 divided by 100 and then times 9

Loved your video but it honestly reminded me of instructional videos from the 50s & 60s!

[@videogamepro964]

I'm amazed of how modernized Japan is, i would love too live there one day and become an engineer.

[@bunnyfreakz]

VideoGamePro Japanese is most advanced people, they know and aware law even without authority observe them. People in my country will vandalize it

[@PEZ1514]

VideoGamePro fukushima bruh. Half the country is radiated to shit.

[@videogamepro964]

CashMoney I know, but what can you do?

[@DualRoxas1000]

Dongle

[@skoobydoobysnack4551]

Richard Spillers hah no. Not an outsider. Its not like how whites treat people lol. People a generally seen as human beings not really by nationality

[@IntanArtha]

everything in japan so easy!my teacher said service in japan is really good and efficient,i love japan!

[@WaoryuONLYinJAPAN]

That's right, and you don't need to tip, either! Ask your teacher to explain "omotenashi" to you. It's a deep concept that means more than service. It's a kind of way of life for all guests including customers. This concept is runs deep in almost all Japanese people. -John

[@fahimation4870]

WAORYU ONLYinJAPAN i love how you still try to reply to all the comments, even on videos released like 3 years ago. Love your videos man. Keep it up xD

Cool! I wish we had vending machines like that!

[@SeekerLancer]

The vending machines are one thing in Japan I'm most jealous of.

[@grayfawkesgaming2373]

I miss Japan so much. I remember telling my family all the time about the amount of vending machines there. On train rides back to where I live, I would count how many vending machines I could spot out the window. Definitely going to go back there on day!

[@WaoryuONLYinJAPAN]

A reason to miss Japan -- vending machines! I missed them so much when I left Japan for a few months. I also miss a lot of things in the US, esp the junk food!! :) The machines will be waiting for your return to Japan! Thanks for the comment Jordan J! -John

[@Jesterthefool]

All these videos make me wanna go to japan :)

[@christieschmitz249]

I love the vending machines. I tried as many different drinks that I could when we were there last month :)

[@nairbpenguinlizard]

You're channel reminds me of a PBS program with the way you enunciate words

[@johnwalter8025]

Cant wait till go to Japan in 2015 it looks awesome ! Japan seems awsome

[@pomerianlatte9514]

Yeah I am going when I'm older but I wanna go now >_< I'm only 9 so...

[@johnwalter8025]

[@nuance6631]

I really want to go to Japan but my mum doesn't like the nuclear stuff there, if there wasn't that. She would definitely take me there. But another thing is that I live in Australia, and it's a 17 hour plane trip. And I hate long trips. How long does it take for somebody in America to get to Japan?

[@johnwalter8025]

I takes around 18 hrs to 22 hrs I think.

[@Cha69y]

When he said bread in a can who else thought of Squidward

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

LOL

[@mizikutsu8060]

yea because the episode whre he got away and lived in a squid only place he bought bread in a can on the supermarket :)

[@dinkelbergfun6175]

hahaha

[@buzzfeedv2375]

I did lol

[@estybesty98]

thought I was the only one

[@orlandotouristtraps7410]

I loved seeing all the unique vending machines. Most of it isn't healthy other than the vended banana but still It was fun to look at.

[@MATAM29]

The music at 4:01 is from LEGO City Undercover.

[@ImmortalNokia]

Wish we had those here in Norway, don't think they would get vandalized either. They should really start doing this kind of thing outside japan, makes getting a drink or some fast food so much less of a hassle

[@HauntedMansion24]

the bread in a can looks so freaking good

[@shon76]

I loved seeing these things on the streets and was amazed how they are just on the sidewalks.

[@garymorgan75]

That is awesome I need to bring those kind of vendor machines to the UK

[@WaoryuONLYinJAPAN]

Thanks for watching! Check out the other episodes on the channel and at onlyinjapan.tv or facebook.com/onlyinjapantv Notes: 120 yen = US$1 (updated April 2015) * The hair whip at the end is becoming legendary! * There are porn machines in Japan, but that's a whole other episode! * Japan has little vandalism which is why these machines are possible on the street and in alleys. -John

[@felix451000]
