Greg...thank you. This is very interesting. I really enjoy the videos that you, Aiko and Shin do...I just finished watching the one where the children (Aiko & Shin) were shown how to make pizza ( with Basil ) .....It was so cute. Your children are well-behaved...and sweet too. Is there a reason why your wife doesn't appear on the videos? Just curious...of course you don't have to answer my question.

@@virtuouswoman9714 He's a good man doing great good, there's no denying that, but it's not unreasonable to think that he was more personable the day because he had the camera pointed at him. Like when he was washing the man's feet and the nurse came in and joked about it, hinting that usually the doctor does not washes the man feet, she does. Again, nothing wrong about that, he shouldn't be expected to do that and not doing it does not take away from the great work he does for these people. It just shows that we all want to look "better" in front of the camera.

JT One of the previous parts goes into this topic. Japanese culture is kind of built on the back of the "working man". Men are expected to be the bread winners and supporters of their families. With that in mind women are seen as a higher priority to be put up into assistance programs because it is more difficult for them to find work. (Especially if they have a child) I guess it's assumed that men SHOULD have an easier time finding and keeping stable work.

That being said, I do have a tiny bit of music in a few of the videos, but I try to keep it as real as possible. And thanks goes to Sanyukai for both helping the homeless/former homeless, but also in aiding us ensure we could do this in a knowledgeable and respectful way.

Factually and sensitively done video, yet not over the top with sentimentality. (Not a slew of sob stories, just an honest look at reality) Perfect balance here Greg. Also, I loved the pacing of the video as well, slow enough without being boring. I assume that was your wife doing the interviews, she has such a pretty and calming voice, seemed like the people were opening up to her for that reason. It is heartening to see how empathetic you both are, I saw that in the "Ramen Guy" episode as well.

I’ve been living in Kyoto for four years now and have been wondering about Japan’s homelessness for some time. I didn’t realize there were homeless in Kyoto until I looked closer that sometimes there are men (usually elderly) walking/riding bicycle with packs of plastic bags which you can tell that they have used it for a long time. The next was when I found those cardboard boxes houses under the bridge -they were gone few weeks after, perhaps relocated by the local government... I’d like to thank you so much for making this series -it helps me to understand aspects in Japan social life through homelessness. It encourages me to learn further, especially by comparing how it is in Japan and in my home country. Again, thank you for the good work!!

I am speechless and touched. There are angels on Earth. The volunteers, the doctors. I was so touched. Homeless in Japan or all over the world is so tough. I am from Brazil, I did live 12 years in the United States...I had instances where I did help homeless folks there. Now, back in Brazil for almost six years, I have a school where I teach poor Brazilians English, Japanese, citizenship, and many other things. Our students are mostly teens and children. We do help a lot here. We do feed people once in a while. Every week there are those who are always hungry, I feel so much, so I am always helping anyway I can. Our work is totally independent. This video has touched me. Those folks are organized. Sanyukai is fantastic. May God bless them, and you, you are a wonderful human with a vision to the world, and I must say, your kids are awesome, polite, well-behaved, extremely smart! Thank you for these videos. Those angels on Sanyukai are helping me to go on with my calling. Sometimes it is difficult, but we will never stop.

The bankruptcy of company the old men talked about at the start of the video may likely be caused by Japan's 'Lost Decades' starting from the assest bubble crash in the 1990s. And that's not even mentioning the 2011 earthquake that destroyed many homes. Despite these misfortunes i think it is highly respectable that Japan could still have this level of welfare for the homeless.

Yeah, I think there were a lot of people who got hit by the bubble, which burst in 1992. A lot of middle aged men at the time turned to casual day labour as a way to make ends meet, but that work also dried up. For guys who are from rural backgrounds with little education and have done mostly manual labour, it was hard to be financially stable later on in life.

@@LifeWhereImFrom Is the countryside not educated? ?? Japan has a very uniform social structure. It's not unlearned because it's the countryside. The reality of the bursting of the bubble has undergone major changes in real estate and public investment. So the construction and civil engineering industry suffered a big loss. Certainly this person has raised the issue of bankruptcy and unemployment. I was a young engineer at an electric company at the time, I didn't feel much change in real life. That's because salary increases have decreased, but price increases have also decreased.

@@teru9500 In Japan mandatory education is only up through junior high school (up through 9th grade). High school (10th to 12th) is not mandatory. So there's a decent number of kids who quit school after junior high to join a family business, move to the city, or intended to work in farmland. Then later some live situation changes and they're left with no job and no education. This was more true in the past than it is now though I think.

That's the Japanese figure, so I think it is a low number relative to the population of the country, which is around 127 million. But that's the official count from the government.

One of the hardest things I had to contend with when I was homeless in the US was the police. No matter how remote a place I tried to find to hide for the night, no matter how out of the way, they would eventually find me and were often very rough about removing me from the location in the middle of the night. You could only escape them by hiding in the absolutely roughest areas you could find, where the police didn't seem to care.

Thank you for this series Greg. I've worked a number of years addressing 'social housing' and wrap-around services and this concise docu-mini series has really helped me understand the homeless challenges in Japan and has prompted me to reach out to Sanyukai. Hopefully I can be of assistance.

This episode almost reduced me to tears...for several reasons (hardship, compassion, etc.). I realize this series is a couple of years old now and I wonder if/how it is all going during 2020. Prayers for all. EDIT: I just clicked on your link above for sanyukai and see that they have a fundraiser going through August 31st. Thanks to this video I was able to find them and, I donated. www.sanyukai.or.jp/donation

Thank you for all the work you have put into this documentary. I was quite touched by their stories and the general pattern I noticed. Homelessness is not an issue unique to Japan, but it seemed the way these men expressed themselves was unique. All the best to those in the video.

This actually breaks my heart to see people of my father's age working extremely hard to make a living. Some of them were just victims of their own companies and the economical problem happened at the moment. Thank you so much for this video. It is an eye-opening thing for me.

Its kinda the norm in japan i think. Since their life expenctancy is higher and all. Also working hard is in their nature so even when theyre already older, they would still want to work.
