Why Japanese Love spending time Alone?

[@kristinwhitaker2983]

I’m american and need my alone time. Your channel is engrossing and enjoyable. Makes me want to visit Japan.

[@ajbriones]

I love that I found this channel, it’s fantastic. I am visiting Japan in March 2025 and I cannot wait!

[@moseskim3942]

I love this channel. I feel immersed in your experiences as if I were there in Japan myself.

in the netherlands they finally also got solo karaoke rooms, it's very interesting in japan! thankyou for learning something new :)

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

Thanks for telling me 😉 Private karaoke rooms should be introduced to more countries. People want to practice before singing in front of people.

We Finns eat alone alot of times... after a few drinks we get more friends. After alot of drinks everyone is a friend. :D

[@Iadyven0m]

Kosuke-san, every night when I’m having dinner I have my iPad up and watch your vids even if it’s the same ones. I enjoy eating pretend dinner with you every night and you are also my drinking buddy. ありがとう ございます!

[@ComickerSeikatsu]

Another great video! I think we need a video of gym and workout culture in Japan because Kosuke, you looking buff 💪🏼

[@mnob1122]

I love your channel. Love learning about Japanese food and culture. 🙂

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

That’s the first. Thank you for your comment!

[@JackBrandoPH]

Happy to see you again, Kosuke! I always find your content fascinating and deeply insightful about your culture. Keep up the great work!👏

[@michellemaddon7952]

Good morning! I'm a new subscriber from Boston, USA! I just found your channel and enjoy your style and the topics you cover! Thank you for presenting your beautiful country in such an elegant way!❤❤❤

[@treehuncher]

I LOVE your videos! It feels like I'm just hanging out with a friend and local. I was going to binge them but found out you only have 14! Keep making them! Going to Japan soon so I'm using your videos as inspiration!

[@treehuncher]

In the US I get judged for eating alone. Even in thai and Chinese restaurants. The US culture assumes you're just a lonely person or got stood up. Sometimes eating doesn't need to be social and you can be happy with yourself :) people should accommodate to that. So glad Japan isn't judgemental about that.

[@Michael_in_Vt]

I love your channel! I've learned so much from you, thank you!

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

Thanks. I have more to share with you! 🇯🇵

[@naturligfunktion4232]

Hi Kosuke-san and thanks for another video! In Sweden it is not common for people to eat or do activities alone. I think it is because you come off as a weirdo if you are going to a resturant by yourself. I think that is sad. Even if I have friends and family, I enjoy having a meal by myself. Anyway, thank you for the video. Me and my wife really enjoy watching as we are planning a big trip to Japan in the future. Have a good one!

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

Your upcoming trip to Japan will be amazing 👍

[@DennisTHugo]

I like the possibility to eat, and enjoy yourself alone... Thats not the case in Norway most of the time. I really love your channel!

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

Thanks for your comment. Knowing different cultures expands our possibility.

[@dule2201]

I definitely was Japanese in another life. I love eating alone, traveling alone, being alone. It’s peace! I travel the world alone! It’s always a joy!

[@antj3864]

I love how Japan is at ease with singlehood, whereas the rest of the world pushes the idea of needing to have a partner to be happy. I need to move to Japan. 😆

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

I think Japan is an easy country for solo travelers. Come to visit Japan before you move✈️✌️

[@ZachJames]

I love the info about BBQ. The same for southern United States. BBQ means a gathering.

Japan is advanced

[@kenjames22]

Hi Kosuke, I have been to Yakniku Likes in japan and here in our country the Philippines they have branches as well. I noticed the sauces are different. May I ask which sauces the Japanese prefer or what is the traditional way of using the spices avaialble on your table?

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

In Japan, main sauces are shoyu-base and miso-base. Garlic and lemon juice are nice to have. I didn’t know there’s already a Yakiniku Like in the Philippines. Thank you for letting me know 😁

[@caduceus33]

Sir, Good that you belong to the clean bowl club, no wasting food! Though I wonder, why not chew your food? Helps with better digestion, etc.

[@ruggeroricotta5133]

lol, I see the stuff of baseball-cage for another game, for golf.

[@Silverbirchtree]

When societies accept the solo person such as Japan it removes loneliness/ social anxiety.

[@lynnmartin906]

No problem eating alone in NYC. you need to get a little lower and step into the swing.

[@Silverbirchtree]

Japan is highly advanced -

Kosuke-san, Do you train in a gym or is your physique from other activities

[@FlappyBanana]

What if suddenly you wanna stop playing, will the ball continue or how?

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

The machine stops by itself after it throws 15 balls

[@Mj-bu7hv]

[@carsiotto]

Since Japan is experiencing higher levels of loneliness, depression and dropping birth rates, I’m not so sure their introverted culture is helpful in the long term.

[@NoisyyCricket]

Isn't there a Japanese loneliness epidemic?

[@kosuke_shows_japan]

Japanese people want solo time. Foreign media always report that too negatively. We’ve got the idea of enjoying ourselves. We look lonely for you, that’s totally fine👍

I sent you a message on instagram.
