THE ULTIMATE BOOK VIDEO 🇯🇵📚 Home library renewal, book shopping, book haul, selling books to Bookoff

[@kiraku_ni]

It's so important to cherish your daily life! That makes up most of our days, so it's necessary to feel comfortable being with oneself and to care for one's own good. Very nice vlog, I'd love to see more of the positive selfcare! That's what books are to me 😊

[@arinoyume]

I totally agree with you, and I have experienced times in my life when I wasn’t able to take care of myself and therefore was unable to read, so those are definitely connected for me too 🩷

[@kiraku_ni]

@@arinoyume It's so good when you know wat works well for you! I also try to convey positivity in my vlogs, not by books, but by living and Japan and sharing the bright side of daily living here, so I'm happy that we're in this journey together!

[@LilithHollow-Hangout]

I find your videos so relaxing. I have always struggled with studying Japanese.. I've been trying to do it off and on for a good chunk of my life, even hiring a tutor 2 years ago. Only in the past half month have I made any progress that I feel has really improved my comprehension by leaps and bounds. I just finally figured out what worked for me. Some of the suggestions and resources you have given here helped a lot! Thank you!

[@arinoyume]

I am SO happy to read this thank you so much for telling me! you made my day ❤️

[@eblan8933]

I love books, and I love hearing other book enthusiasts talk about books.

[@arinoyume]

Same here!! Loved creating the video 🩷

[@sc_733]

I love that my algorithm introduced me to your channel!! Thank you for the lovely video, it is giving me some ideas of places to go get some books for my Japanese reading journey! Now I can go backwards and watch all the videos you have yayy~!!

[@arinoyume]

Thank you so much your comment went straight to my heart!!

[@sc_733]

@@arinoyume Aww! Well thank YOU for your lovely channel🩷 I started from the first video you posted and am truly enjoying my journey watching all the videos you’ve made thus far!

[@stanislavamlechkova2004]

“No longer human” will brake your heart🥺❤️. I read it recently and think it will make you very emotional. Thank you for another amazing video, Ali!❤ You are amazing and a true inspiration!❤

[@leanne4371]

Loved this! Seeing the joy you get from reading in Japanese is so motivating. I can’t wait until I’m able to read ‘comfortably’ in my target language, Korean. It will open up a whole new world! 😊

[@celial3603]

I loved 博士の愛した数式, 告白 and うずまき, so I hope you will like them too !! 😊✨ I also really want to read Battle Royale too, but I have to many TBR books so I will wait a little 🥹

[@arinoyume]

I haven’t read 告白 yet but the other two were great! 😍

[@amyng2291]

I have read 3 of the books you hauled 🤭 and I love 告白 and read it twice. It is really heart warming n I decided to keep it. Thanks for sharing and love watching your posts. So many interesting books you have recommended, will take a look when I go to bookstore.

[@niewymagane]

A lot of these books are also on my TBR so I'm looking forward to your reading vlogs and reviews ❤

The Memory Police is amazing! Loved the video ☺️

[@arinoyume]

I can’t wait to dive into it 😭😭😭

[@yomu_jikan]

Love this format ❤ 人間失格 was the final straw, the final reason I gave up and started learning japanese ❤

[@ApricityLife]

Omgggg Japanese booktube video!!! This combines two of my favorite KZbin niches! 🎉 I also was constantly squealing because several of those books I have read in English or Spanish! I really hope you like 密やかな結晶, I read it in English and enjoyed it so much❤

[@janiceknepp4604]

Every time you show a video of you reading I keep on wanting to pick up my Korean books and try reading them.

[@theroamingbookworm]

I just found your channel and I’m so happy! I’m intermediate in Korean and beginner in Japanese and my goal is to start reading manga in Japanese this autumn 🥹 I’m so inspired to get to your reading level bc I love Japanese literature

[@Rozankya]

Wonderful video !! I'm currently learning japanese to read books (and speak and listen of course, but reading books is my goal and motivation). When you ate some "spicy ramen" well... even the color says "I'm very spicy" xD

[@arinoyume]

It was super spicy but very tasty!!

[@funvvvv6760]

It’s nice to see someone have the same goal as me I thought that I’m the only one that learn languages just to read books💫😀

[@fergusonlk]

I love the special covers! I found the first Doraemon book in a special set recently in Japan. Hoping to use when I’m ready for reading immersion. 😊

[@kenzierenea]

I love your videos! Do you have a list of all the books you’ve gone through? In an earlier video, you showed a list after the video with your ratings. Anyway, love your incredible content on learning languages! I’m about N3 now, but hopefully can follow your footsteps to N1!

[@EdwardGiordano]

I clicked so fast omg yay!

[@QueenXKnit]

Cant wait for that to be me but in chinese ❤❤❤❤ ure such an inspiration!!!

[@arinoyume]

I wish that for you!!! I hope you get there soon 🩷🩷🩷

[@nabukuma]

Love 告白, I’ve only ever seen the movie and read the English translation, but I’ve always wanted to read the book. Currently on my bookshelf waiting patiently

[@arinoyume]

Waiting patiently but something tells me you’ll pick it up soon 😍🩷

[@dothetwist298]

I also live in Japan and I’ve been an avid Japanese literature reader for a long time. Unfortunately not many foreigners in Japan read in Japanese, so I’m very excited to have found your channel. If you do like fiction, I highly recommend 小野不由美 and 西條奈加

[@arinoyume]

Your comment made my day! Thank you so much for the recommendations too!! Taking notes 😍

[@chantale8773]

Really great video! Hope you enjoy your new books. I read Kitchen in february and really loved it, but I also read No Longer Human this year and was very dissapointed. For no Longer human, I don't understand the hype. Really looking forward to your reviews!

[@jessicaabad5424]

I read "The Cat Who Saved Books" and though the story is interesting, I didn't enjoy the way it was written that much... I remember watching "Battle Royal" and loving it! I didn't know there was a book; I need to check it🧐. Also, the collection you are creating looks really interesting. I hope you enjoy all the new acquisitions😊

[@arinoyume]

Thank you so much for your comment 💕🥳🩷🩷🩷

[@Cat1184]

It’s always so exciting to get new books and browse through bookstores. I can totally relate. And I’m very interested in that book about reading or more the lack of it as an adult. Maybe you can share your thoughts and take-outs from it once you’ve finished it? Would be very interesting because a lot of people, including myself, experienced that. On another note, thanks for sharing your go to bookstores. I took a lot of notes because I’m going to be in Fukuoka at the beginning of November and I need to go to a bookstore as well to get a few things for my Japanese studies. So is there a bookstore among those which you would recommend going to for study books, especially drill books for the JLPT?

[@arinoyume]

Yes I would DEFINITELY go to either Maruzen, Tsutaya or Junkudo in priority - the other bookstores might not have a Japanese language learning section! 🙏🏻 about the book: okay! I will share my thoughts when I read it 🥳💕 thank you!

[@croquetica]

HI just came across your video and was super interested in knowing the title of the white cover book that you say is one of your husband's favorite? I cannot seem to catch the pronunciation nor the cover. Thank you so much in advance!

[@arinoyume]

This is こころ (Kokoro) 😍🩷

[@awsome8118]

surprised to find I've read almost all the books you bought in english (and a couple in Japanese)! I really liked some and had mixed feeling on others (unfortunately I agree with your husband about JR 上野駅), but I'm excited to hear your thoughts on all of them

Do they sell books in English at Book Off?

[@arinoyume]

They do! As long as people sell books there, they end up on the shelves so you’ve got lots of languages actually
