I would 100% use all that money and take someone in need to eat every day. I would go an find someone each day who looked like they needed to talk, or looked hungry, or get something extra to go and give it to someone on the street. (I know homeless are extremely rare in Japan, and they are not as obvious, but still…) Make a KZbin where I interviewed over the food… stuff like that

[@vlunt300]

@@caitchri2426 Homeless are definitely not rare in Japan unfortunately, actually its a pretty big problem due to problems surrounding their culture (i could go into more detail but itd be easier for you to look into it yourself through a youtube video abt the homeless in Japan or something). Unfortunately, I think the culture that surrounds Japan (very honourable and self-sufficient mentality) would also mean that it would be difficult to give random people on the street food, just my assumption though

[@caitchri2426]

@@vlunt300 oh yes! I know a lot of people are more technically homeless too, like living in capsule hotels, manga cafes and things like that. I think in order to give a gift of a meal to someone because of the pride issue, you would have to spin it as an interview or something.

I remember a challenge where someone had mcdonalds for what, a month every day? Or a few months, but he ended up obese and in severe health conditions. This honestly is a great way to show how much healthier (not necessarily healthy) japanese fastfood is. Honestly, probably a good marketing campaing for sukiya lol

He just hacked life into free food, what a lad ❤

In Japan, we call the eccentric person like him "Aisubeki Baka".(Adorable Silly)

[@scifiwasabii]

[@wiseturtule]

This is an absolute killer channel! Amazing work! I'm hooked!

[@dougk1315]

I like how this story is told as if he was going to lose his house or something while the guy is happy for it to end

[@EdwardChan.999]

Yoshinoya has shops in Hong Kong too! Gotta say it's delicious as heck for a reasonable price, students' favourite during lunch break

and he became the new sukiya mascot

Really interesting videos into the media culture of japan, thank you for sharing!

Eating rice with a single dish repeatedly is so common in Asia, and I know a guy that eat the same thing for months on end at least once a meal coz he isn't a foodie. This guy can eat any menu in Sukiya which is a big advantage to the challenge because there's a lot of different things to eat.

Hey, it's free food. Plus, Sukiya is a good joint. Ate there almost everyday in the two months I was in Japan because it was cheaper than cooking.
