[@ju081t5]

Pattern of Japanese not helping 1.When the other person is overbearing. 2.When you speak too fast and I don't understand what you are saying, or when you speak something other than English. Japanese people always learn English, but often have never even heard of most other languages. 3. when I really don't know where you are. Tokyo attracts people from all over Japan, so it's normal to have never even heard of a station because many people are not from the area. I would like to add that if you absolutely need help with something, don't ask people walking around town. They will only tell you out of kindness. If you ask someone at a police box, convenience store, etc., who is there for work and not there out of the goodness of their heart, they will almost certainly tell you. In Japan, that's classified as a professional service, so you can't refuse unless they're busy.

When I went to Japan for the first time in 2019 ( I also managed to book my trip during the Hagabis Typhoon, what are the odds.) I was so surprised how willingly people wanted to help me out and communicate. After landing I was immediately helped by a friendly lady on the shinkansen who showed me where to store my big travel suitcase. When I visited a traditional Inn in Sendai the owner of the place showed me around before checking in and even tried his best to speak English and was very humbled when I spoke a little bit of Japanese to him. His wife later approached me while I was heading out from the 2nd floor of the Inn and started talking to me in English which were really easy to understand. Asked me about my trip and where in Japan I had been and where I was going. She also invited me to a karaoke evening that the Inn were having the next night, but sadly I couldn't go because of other plans When we were taking the tour bus a employee there asked me what country I was from, and I told him Sweden. He lit up and started talking to me in Spanish, but after just a brief sentance he facepalmed himself and realised his mistake and said a few words in Swedish 😂 On the same bus, an old Japanese lady that was seated in the seats in front of us tried to communicate with me in English and was just the sweetest lady ever. She then started talking to my girlfriend in English before realizing my girlfriend was Japanese and the lady was a bit embarrased 😂 I had countless of situations like this, and I was so surpised that Japanese people wanted to communicate with me. It was such a lovely feeling to have people very interested and helpful, and I was a bit surprised since Japanese people are very often described as very reserved. Japan in 2019 was my dream trip, and it's still my most amazinf trip of my life. Because of Corona I have not been able to go again but soon I will go back, and I just can't wait 😊❤

If you ever in Japan and need help from japanese, speak very easy English. Don't run up to them and speak in full sentences like the guy in the video. Just give them few words, if you want to go to Shibuya station for example, just say the station name. Don't confuse them, they'll understand it that way much easier and won't be scared. When starting the conversation just use "sumimasen".

[@gaijideasobuyou]

Advice from a Japanese living in the US, If you have a question or request for help, it is better to ask in short sentences. If you have a question or need help, you can ask in short sentences: "My map app says there is a convenience store near here, but I can't find it. I need to use the restroom. Is there a public restroom or a facility where I can use the restroom?" Rather than asking, "Where restroom(toilet)?" is easier to convey your message, and if your goal is not to communicate with the locals, it is convenient to install a translation application. By the way, "Sumimasen" is fine as the first word.

[@mookiestewart3776]

as an american that took japanese in college for several semesters i really urge people to learn some basic japanese phrases as well. For instance your example of needing a convenience store or bathroom learning the phrase "doko desu ka" would instantly solve that issue and probably most of their other navigation issues while visiting

[@alejandro711ve]

I have seen many videos of KZbinrs hinting that the Japanese don't like foreigners, because if you sit next to them on the subway they stand up and walk away because they are racist. The times I have visited Japan, everyone has been very kind to me, the Japanese are for the most part very kind, cordial, respectful and they try hard to help you, even if they don't speak English. When you sit next to a Japanese in the subway and they stand up, it can be for 2 reasons: 1- The Japanese are not used to using deodorants, perfumes or strong-smelling bath soaps, possibly if you use these products, You cannot feel your own smell because you are used to it and for them the smell of your body is something strong. 2- It is possible they think that you ask them something in English, it will not be a short conversation and they do not speak on the subway, so to avoid a conversation where they should not speak they move places. I have a high regard for the Japanese, they have always treated me very well.

Yeah your own experience does not define Japan tho. People who said these things about Japan said them for a reason. People never sit next to me on trains and much more

[@katoeri505]

The other reason: people move to the corner seat because people loves this seat and maybe some thinks they are changing the seat because of them but no

[@mmoejp13]

I'm Japanese, and this person is most likely speaking for the majority of Japanese who moved away from foreigners, because if it's not racism then it may be the strong smell of some people bothering them, because I hear it a lot from my ppl that they can't handle some of the strong smells that foreigners use. We're just not used to it yet. Another is yes, they are shy or nervous or they like to move from the seat for whatever the reason and you can never guess unless you ask the person and get the answer. I get ignored a lot at my work;in NY from my co-workers, because I'm Japanese but it's not my problem until they talk to me about their problems, so I know some Japanese can be real mean and be racist too, but just ignore them and think that it's their problem and not yours....✌️ Keep smiling and stay happy. They don't deserve your attention.

something similar happened to me except in a negative way. (I apologize in advance) this did not happen in Japan but where I live currently. So I have two blood in me. My parents are from Kyoto. But I was born and raised in Canada. In other words I am Japanese Canadian. So this happened recently, (fyi I work at retail) On July 1, I happened to be outside the shop after closing. Since I was told by my leader to clean the window. It was extremely dirty. It was fine for 5 mins. but approximately, 10 mins later, This Blonde hair looking dude (aka a delinquent potentially aka an uneducated kid) who looks to be the same age as a certain "someone" on the internet happened to be walking by and had the fricking gut to say this to me in Japanese. "HEY!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?!" the tone was extremely, Aggressive. So from my POV it sounds like this.... "HEY MF! TF R U DOING A-HOLE!" I looked at him by mistake and then went back to work. But seconds later the PTSD showed up. (FYI growing up I was a shut-in so I close to zero opportunity to get this sorted out. Also fyi cause this could have potentially played a role but I have ADHD. I also have ADD as a result of not treating the symptom with meds during childhood. I wish my ma was more strict on me. HOWEVER I do not blame her at all. I just wish things went differently... ) I got shaken up and froze, If I was in my normal state aka I wasn't sleep deprived and wasn't burned out. I would have been fine. But It has been such a long time since I was verbally harassed. Also It was the end of a VERY long shift. So He obviously found me in a very vulnerable state. luckily and unluckily (luck as in my Manager happen to be near by where I was working and I reported it. and unluckily they were somewhat long gone.) after I told her she was trying to take action by trying to chase that idiot. (I commend her for that) But it was too late.... Fortunately it was less than 5 mins before everyone's shift ended. So it ended pretty quickly. I also have the description of the Suspect so next he comes around I'll be ready for him hopefully. So what I'm trying to say is the harassment is real in Japan. No matter where you are at. The Close-minded, cold mfs really need to be reeducated... especially late GEN-Z kids. Since they are out of control globally in my opinion. But on the bright side the confrontation made me stronger. So I actually would like to thank him. FYI: this was inside a shopping mall. if anyone has any questions lmk. Also highly, unlikely but if that dude is watching... all I could say is 『日本人のくせに、あんな、態度は、よくねえーわ。学校へ、いけ！ ぼけ！将来、絶対に、後悔するぜ！それと、コミュニケーションを、もっとしなさい！』 FYI: since working at this retail this has been the 4th time. FYI: I misunderstood the video as usual I apologize, I've been in a dark place for the last couple of days, and I assumed this was the negative one where xenophobia happens. BUT regardless I would still help that dude and as a fellow foreigner. It just feels right. Even with my negative experience.

Btw is it not common knowledge that when you ask someone for help who doesn't speak the same language, you stick to similar and simple words and hand gestures? Like personal I'd would have just said "Shibuya station" Instead of a whole lengthy sentence.

[@mainichikosodate]

I live in Japan and there are definitely foreigners who do this, Japan is seen as an advanced country that must be able to speak English. But a lot of people are trying their best to learn Japanese too - so it’s a bit frustrating they made him act like this!

[@maryamsediqi7044]

Japanese are amazing when asking help, as a foreigner I lost my ways many times and whenever I asked help they helped me very kindly, even many of them accompanied me till station or anywhere I wanted to go, I am so grateful for their this kind behavior ❤🙏🏻

[@soju81]

My Japanese friend told me it's uncommon for Japanese people to stop and help with directions, especially if you are Japanese/Asian. I wonder if the people in this video were more open to helping because it was obvious the white man is a foreign tourist.

日本人は人種で差別はしませんよ。アメリカ人ならみんな同じアメリカ人として接するだけです。 日本人は英語に自信がないので、白人でも黒人でも逃げる時は同じように逃げます。そして話せる時は同じように話します。 そこに人種差別は存在せず、日本人が持っているのは英語に対する劣等感だけです。

私は日本人の女性です。多くの場合、声をかけられたら対応します。しかし一度だけ無視してしまったことがあります。 原因： 1、私は通勤途中であり有線イヤホンをしていました 2、相手は男性で私よりはるかに体が大きかった 声をかけられても足を留めることなく去りました。危ない人かもしれないと思って無視をしてしまった。 もし本当に、道を尋ねたいだけの人だったら、私は悪いことをした。

[@onigirioishiyo]

私も、声をかけられたらできる限りの対応はしますが、男性で「こっち来て教えて」と言われた時や、商品について店員さんでなくわざわざ私に聞いて来た時には、反射的に警戒心が先に立って 「ごめんなさい、わからない」の一点張りで逃げたり、店員さん呼んだ方が詳しいと言って呼びに行ったり 「電話の向こうの人に、ここまでどうやって来るか、説明してあげてほしい」と言われた時は、大きな通りで目立つように大きい声で説明しました。 親切って自分の身の安全を確保できてからすればOKです。

to be fair most places people would help you out.....even in the ghetto in america you could walk up to a Gangster Looking guy and they would still help you out. Never judge a book by its cover. While Stranded it is always the ghetto people that come to aid while the suit and tie guys keep going.
