[@GeneralGrizzy]

Put a white person in Japan they assume you speak English. Put a black person in Japan the assume you're African American and that you rap, sing and dance. Put a brown person in Japan they assume you're Arabian or Indian (if darker). Put a Japanese bloke (or any oriental background) in a European or North American country, they ask if your Chinese or or what kind of nese are you :')

[@jessicahathaway7565]

General Grizzy very true xD

[@senagst6510]

i don't know why when japanese say english word with their engrish, i just love it haha

[@jerelecarreon8657]

Sena Gusti it's because the jalanes people have troubles and saying the letter "L" soo yeah..and i ntheir alphabet...L does not exist

[@senagst6510]

Tutorial Feeds I knew the Japanese alphabet doesn't have La Li Lu Le Lo or etc, but if you notice that something lil weird, when Japanese also say their word ex. bokura, nara or japanese word with 'r' they're also say bokula, nala, etc. And when they're say word in english ex. Bolt, World they even can't say bolt or world, they're always changed be Boruto or Warudo. Sorry for my bad english

[@SimoneFiumicini99]

[@minechick65]

Omg you're so lucky you got to get this experience.. I bet you the good bye was sooo hard.. I would be crying like a baby like ugly crying 😭

[@afordan]

I think you are very brave to have done an exchange in Japan. That culture and language is very foreign and different for gaijin. Even though I'm Asian, I would feel out of place there.

[@ilya_go5919]

they look really good students there. Here nobody would think about you if you leaved. But if you are very good or famous student maybe they will remember

[@TheKiwiJobes]

Basing of what you said about not speaking the best Japanese when you arrived it's amazing how far you came! I guess being around native speakers really is the best way to learn :)

[@ran9176]

Actually I’m a Japanese high school student, your Japanese is so good!!! Well done:) Thanks for coming to Japan

[@Gearz86]

Never forget you eternally...that's pretty intense, lol

[@emonemo6920]

I was actually really emotional when I watched this. I actually cried😅 I think you met a lot of wonderful people and I could see how much you loved the school. It was very nice of your classmates to do something this amazing to you and it seems like you had a lot of fun too. I wish you and everyone else an amazing future and to follow your dreams.. I would love to go through this experience myself but, oh well😄 I'm smiling while I'm typing this, even though I cry. I wish you all luck in the future. I write this from the bottom of my heart❤️ Yūjō wa odorokubeki kotodeari, anata wa sore o taisetsu ni suru hitsuyō ga arimasu! Kaigo otoko o torimasu❤️✌🏻️

It brought me back to the day I had to say goodbye to my German school back in 2013. I cried too, lol. I'm from Paraguay and I had a wonderful exchange experience in Germany :). Your English is perfect and I loved listening to you talking in Japanese. My brother is going on exchange to Japan in 2 months so that's how I ended up watching your videos :)

Honetly, japanese and chinese people are the sweetest, about a year ago l went to a camp, called super camp. and there were two girls from china. l immedatly made friends with them an they were so kind and welcoming. Its hard for me to make friends ad its hard for me to be able to feel a deep connection with them, but l did. when we left, l got their email address, but l cant find it and it makes me upset. its been more than a year now, and l made so many pans with her. l feel so bad. l told her l was going to come and visit her soon. l really need to get in contact with her again.

[@jingliusicesword]

I want to learn Japanese but it's so difficult ;;;

[@kirin8928]

It's hard depending on how you learn it. There is a book called genki 1-2 and they help you learn Japanese. Mostly the alphabet but it has things to do for remembering and all that jazz. It helped me a lot! I'm visiting Japan soon and it helped me learn really fast. There is a book for learning Kanji too. It's called remembering kanji by: heigis. And a small tip is to forget your language and try to speak in Japanese even if no one knows what your saying. Have a conversation with someone else who knows Japanese.

[@jingliusicesword]

Kirin Sakuya Ohh Thank you !

[@kirin8928]

emerald I hope it helps you if you learn. :) Also depending on how old you are, in college you can minor in Japanese and go abroad and go to school in Japan.

[@Jd-hs8zb]

You can learn to speak it with Pimslure Japanese, also. I think is better to learn pronunciation first! ^-^ Good luck!
