Why Japanese Toilets Are The Best In The World

[@seerasan]

Ever since I discovered the Tokyo Toilet project I have been OBSESSED!!! ✨🚽 is it just me? Am I crazy, OR weird? Or are you also in love with these amazing high-tech toilets!!! Comment below if you've used a Japanese toilet before 🧻💩

[@moredetailsinmessage7969]

Great video. Next video, all the fantastic many public bins in Japan 😢

[@ropro9817]

"I loved that video about toilets!" is something I thought I'd never say. 😂 Great video! 👏👏👏

[@joshuac2991]

Everyone should have at the very least a bidet, been using one of these for years and its just better all around for your butt.

[@haidoro3834]

❤

[@nsaito9938]

I didn't expect a video about toilets to be this interesting lol, really enjoyed it !

[@AllStars2525]

Wow, this is an art project as well as a public works project! What an absolutely beautiful project!! This is a fantastic video!!

[@xdptwin1]

Anyone who hasnt watched "Perfect Days" should definitely watch it. It follows one of the Public Toilent Attendants and its truly a beautiful movie.

[@halieneedscoffee]

Such a lovely movie, absolutely worth a watch!

[@boyce1000]

I love how you so excited about these toilets. But it's true Japanese toilets are really something.

[@halcyonandon]

I really appreciate a nice toilet. So many countries don’t invest in them and they end up vandalised or closing them down. It should be something everywhere invests in! It makes it so much nicer to be out in the city knowing there are nice toilets available if you need them

[@EdinMike]

My youngest brother when he was younger used to be obsessed with checking out every toilet in every place we would go ! I dunno if that obsession has followed him into his 30s but he’d love Japan ! 😂

[@vonplus00]

I would never imagined i would see a toilet video, quite interesting the different type of toilets there are in Japan.

[@emmakun]

It's not crazy, I'm in my second trip to Japan right now and I literally went to Yoyogi park just to see the trabsparent toilet. It is amazing! Nice to know there is an entire project dedicated to innovative and stylish toilets in Japan. That's something sooo japanese haha!

[@carycoombe3380]

Yes! I recognize those places from the movie. Cool story.

[@svcrypto]

Never thought id be so interested in toilets, interesting content lately . LOVE IT!

[@cookeecutkk]

I’m not only appreciating the cleanliness and the aesthetics but the spaciousness most of all. These feel almost like home.

[@OMG_LoL]

It's rare to find a video where it's fun to read each comment. From a Japanese perspective, it is interesting to see what people from other countries thought. コメントを一つ一つ見るのも楽しい動画ってめったにない。 日本人からすると、外国の人達がどう思ったか、興味深いです。

[@AndrewPorsch]

The video topic we've all been waiting for!

[@MelonWaterMelon777]

If the topic of public toilet interests you "Life Where I'm From" did a couple video on the topic. One is from 8months ago and another is the 6 months one

[@Irulan-j7z]

Das beste und einzigartige Video über die Toilettenarchitektur! Love it!!!

[@martinb.]

Kostenlose und saubere öffentliche Toiletten, ein Traum. 😊

[@willispate5257]

I'm impressed with how much you researched for this video. Def did not expect a video like this after work

[@seerasan]

Thank you! I had a lot of fun learning about this project 😌

[@cakeswithfaces]

When I first heard about the Tokyo Toilet project I thought it'd make a fun/silly DIY guided tour! So it's great to see you actually visit them!

[@Chuck8541]

I was in Japan for 6 months this year. I just got back, and am already missing Japanese toilets. :(

[@remomarkable5120]

I love architecture and design, so this was a fun and interesting video. Thanks for sharing your faves.

[@seerasan]

Thanks for watching! Japan has lots of interesting architecture, especially in Tokyo. Living here has given me a new found appreciation for it honestly 😆

[@D34DParadise]

Perfect Days is such a beautiful film

[@NoFace89-z6z]

I was at yoyogi last spring and I didn’t know that toilet was there 😂 I would’ve gone out of my way to “visit it” had I known!!!!

[@silverian]

I remember that transparent toilet from one of your previous videos! It is nice how toilets mix with the environment.

[@bbshrimp]

This is so freaking cool... I'm definitely interested in seeing more of these public bathrooms or other architecture! I'm in awe of how aesthetic and clean they are. The wood bathroom at the end is so stunning. I'm a plant enthusiast so I love that you mentioned the types of wood used in it! Yoshino cedar is just a type of cedar tree local to Yoshino. Cedar has some antimicrobial properties and a nice scent so maybe that's why they used it? A lot of saunas use cedar! I've never heard of zelkova but google says it's really sturdy and also popular for bonsai, so that's pretty cool. Anyhooooo thanks for this vid, it was super interesting! 🚽✨

[@LetsgowithHyro]

First I thought...what?? Then I watched the whole thing😂😂 Great vlog and thanks for showing us this😬👌🏼

[@Thekidisalright]

Fun fact: the movie “Perfect Days” was supposed to be a documentary about the toilet project, commissioned by the Japanese government, but after the director dived deep in the research he feel that making it into a movie would reach a wider audience as well as pay better tribute to the hard working cleaners. 😊

[@mr.morales0707]

Never thought we would have toilet reviews but this one’s great

[@YesYouAreAbsolutelyCorrect]

Public toilet in Paris: 1. Hope that it closes; 2. Hope that it has water; 3. Hope that nobody lives inside; 4. Surprise, the whole city is a public toilet!

[@osliverpool]

If I ever visit Tokyo, I'm heading out to try all 17 of those toilets!

[@MissiBoo]

I love the transparent toilets. They are sooo cute 🥰 and spotlessly clean 🫧😊

[@dgstump]

My first day back to work after being off for a week and a Sarah video is up. Better than coffee.

[@seerasan]

Better than coffee? No better compliment than that! ☕️

[@stefanwolf1869]

Nice video as always! Congratulations on it being Video 100 on your channel!

[@seerasan]

I didn't even notice, how fitting! 😂 Thanks!

[@Charbond]

I really appreciate that these are clean and free to use (i think). My only gripe as a foreigner would be that they dont always look like toilets from the outside so i would probably walk past lost. At least in the uk all the public toilets seem to look the same: shabby and a place to avoid at all costs.

[@karindv9477]

I never thought the day would come where I get this excited about toilets! Japan is on my bucketlist and I now must check some of these beauties out.😮 Great, unique vlog Sarah!

[@luis_discovery]

At the start of the video I immediately started thinking about “Perfect Days”. Glad you watched it ! I’ve also started picturing the main character’ routine cleaning each of the toilets you were visiting 😂

[@gothnev]

Loving all the info in this video. You've genuinely made toilets interesting! :)

[@princess-violet]

Do you wanna take us on more architecture tours in Tokyo? That was awesome!

[@seerasan]

Honestly would love to explore more content like this in future!

[@Sx-xy2zi]

Saw a film called perfect days which was on the tokyo toilets. Was a really beautiful movie

[@thejohnnygsmith]

Great movie!

[@イチロー-t7x]

素晴らしいレポートでした。これを見たら多く人が日本を訪れたいと思うでしよう。

[@davidkniveton7792]

Well that was different watching and enjoying a video about toilets in Japan, thanks Sarah keep the strange subjects coming please

[@seerasan]

Happy to hear you're enjoying the different type of content! 😁

[@littleshrine7922]

The walls of the transprente toilet remain smoked when electricity is not supplied. In other words, the glass stays transparent only when the electricity is running. So, you don't have to worry about a suddent blackout while using it.

[@shane3x]

Perfect days was a beautiful film I saw it earlier this year in the cinema.

[@colinmathie2710]

I noticed that the toilet which is orange i think, anyway its beside the pink one is equipped for disabled folk to use, its also nice and spacious so that would be handy for wheelchair users like myself to use.

[@Del-Lebo]

I, Indeed, would make a day out of a toilets excursion!!!! %100 Thank you So much for this documentary!!! 🥰💞💯

[@princess-violet]

1:36 I never thought of that. "To see if someone is hiding inside" before you use the toilet. Maybe yes, it's less risky to have a stalker or agressor in this type of toilets

[@chrisyravenconlin]

Love to see so many cool accessible toilets!

[@HienNoir]

I picked up the Tokyo toilet book from my trip and it’s so interesting to see the architecture and thoughts behind the design!

[@dreemwalka]

Omg I never knew I wanted to go to Tokyo just to check out the toilets

[@Zm-dg3lb]

I don't believe there are so many public toilets. I was in pain last time I was there to find public toilet. Next time, I will try to look one. Thanks for the video.

[@julesloveless]

Hi! I love your videos!

[@seerasan]

Hi!! Thank you so much 🫶

[@WasabiWallaby]

Oh I saw this a month ago on the Tokyo Joe show! How cool!

[@jnb756]

Boy your content has really gone down the crapper with this video - and I love it 🤣

[@nao-yh5yn]

I'm Japanese, and recently I've found something convenient about toilets.These are toilets in movie theaters, hotels and motorway service stations.At the entrance to public restrooms there is a panel with a map of the restrooms.The panel will show you which private rooms are in use. This means you don't have to knock and you won't be knocked.

[@Taurusus]

Man, and I thought it was interesting enough that I went like a full week where every public toilet I used had a unique lock mechanism. Not a single repeat until halfway through Tokyo. I gotta up my loo-riousity game.

[@ElonJusk]

Sara you rock

[@ffoninamhcar24]

Why doesn't America have public toilets like this? We have rest areas on the interstates, but our cities need them too. NYC needs them. My city needs them. These toilets are inspiring! I'm obsessed now!

[@u0000-u2x]

really cool designs

[@libraryofalexandria849]

I live near the other one in Hatagaya/Sasazuka and I have only used it once and it was while I was walking home from Kabukicho and was too drunk to wait till I got home xD

[@keithlambell1970]

Thank you for making toilets such an unexpected beautiful thing 🙂

[@BYMMooVs]

Thanks for the fun video. I should have checked these out when I was there this past May. I was going to comment on the lack of graffiti, until your last toilet😢. Unlike the states or Europe.

[@Torsee]

One terrific thing that stands out. No vandalism! Go to any restroom in the US…outright disgusting in comparison. Great video Seerasan.

[@EdmundPaddington]

We wouldn't go too far out of the way, but if we were nearby - definitely

[@larryhaylock1248]

Wow very informative thank you

[@lilahsadventures5717]

I really wish Melbourne Australia would do this so modern clean and more efficient. Hi mumasan you have a lovely talented intelligent daughter and I hope you enjoy her video about the toilets I think it’s wonderful. 😊

[@dairsensi]

I was in Tokyo in 2018 for two weeks and could not find a public toilet anywhere while I was there. I always found myself running into department stores when in need.

[@seerasan]

These ones in Shibuya area are handy, but my go-to is usually the station or a conbini 😭

[@akahatapuntocero]

the report that i was waiting for

[@seerasan]

reporting for duty 💩

[@Nynke_K]

Are you kidding? OF COURSE I want to seen these toilets for myself! Public architectural gems! About the question at 13:08, no cedar and cherry wood are two different species but these varieties were both named for the same region in Nara!

[@Barbarian14]

Futuristic, awesome. Thanks Sarah.

[@heythave]

I was there, at those transparent toilets! They were way cool. 😎

[@adamgrant917]

If we had public bathrooms like that in America I’d never get my wife out of there.

[@theglowcloud2215]

Electrochromic glass is really cool. Too bad it's relatively expensive.

[@michaelaskew6025]

They are sensational and practically brilliant. Japanese toilets and bidets all the way.🥰💚🌱🗾

[@qtdcanada]

I would venture a guess: even if other world-leading cities built similar toilets as those in Tokyo, they will (very) quickly become dirty, stinky and gross! This is because there are other factors contributing to the 'top quality' of Tokyo's public toilets: the toilet users and cleaners. Japanese attitude about bathroom hygiene is top tiered, people will do their part to keep the facility clean/tidy. Cleaners, like (most) people working at their jobs (whatever it is) will focus and try to do their jobs well.

[@vr599]

Toilets in Perfect daysss

[@nowar0730]

日本人ですけどこんなに特徴的なトイレがあったなんて知らなかったです！😂

[@Kayaonanao]

I love toilets more than I love my family 😢 Toilet Supremacy

[@StaringIntoSpaceMan]

Another future Japan trip sidequest acquired: Visit ALL the Toilets

[@cami_ille]

A great idea to explore the toilets and the surrounding areas! You mentioned getting attacked by mosquitoes, do you have any tips for traveling in Japan with mosquitoes? I saw online that Japan has a lot of mosquitoes, so I'm trying to factor that into my travel

[@PhilInJapan]

I was wondering when the toilet book would turn into a video! 😂

[@HelloOnepiece]

Because people actually care about the cleanliness of the enviroment and do not view them as oversized trash cans. And the fact that the technology does not get stolen from it.

[@sergioin3D]

That one looks like some sort of rock phenomena on earth, growing outta the ground naturally

[@slabrankle9588]

I feel like this would pair well with a beer tasting tour.

[@MyCrazyCastle]

Restrooms this nice would never last in America. It's a shame, people would totally destroy them.

[@cross-o-bar]

素晴らしい日本のトイレｗの考察！ 毎回楽しい日本の紹介♡ ありがとうございます(^▽^)/ A look at the wonderful Japanese toilets lol! A fun introduction to Japan every time ♡ Thank you(^▽^)/

[@MiddleAgedSwedeGoesForAWalk]

The transparent toilets are cool until someone drunk forgets to lock the doors before using them. Don't remember who, but another youtuber saw that happen while doing a video on those toilets. 😆edit: Had to look it up, it was Aki. Haven't seen the other ones before but they all had really cool designs, can't really pick any favorite among them.

[@CB-sx8xh]

In Okinawa I found that many of the toilets had a urinal with very little covering, no need for transparent walls...

[@liquidsonly]

Dami Lee has a video about comparing USA an Japan toilets.

[@DjRenect]

I’ll admit, I really thought this would be scraping the creative bottom of the barrel, but they’re architecturally interesting. Well done.

[@AsherC9]

There’s an amazing movie “perfect days” about a cleaner taking care of those special toilets 🙂

[@mikebeech5618]

Where'd u think she got the idea for this video?!

[@Thekidisalright]

Bro you didn’t watch this video, did you?

[@arthurg7894]

If you told me just a few months ago even I'd be enraptured by a video about toilets I would've laughed so hard. But here I am looking forward to going to Tokyo and needing to pee

[@wasabigirl2004]

hahaha, my thought exactly! 🤣

[@helvetiqa]

Omg, "theraPOOtic music" in the voice command toilet 😂

[@DustyRose129]

Uhm... The guy walking up to the opaque and occupied transparent toilet and putting his hand up beside his eyes to try and see in at 1:17 to 1:18.... O.o But other than that, this is so cool!!!

[@seerasan]

Oh just to clarify - that person was actually with a female friend/partner (they were just tourists checking it out together)!

[@DustyRose129]

@@seerasan OH! It was just so random to see!! Good to know it wasn't just someone random!

[@denisfournier984]

Holy smokes toilets are hi-tec, I think I would find them intimidating and would prevent me from going. Lol

[@ToshisTripinJapan]

Since I’m used to Japan's clean toilets, I don’t want to use ones without bidets when I travel abroad. When choosing a hotel, whether it has a bidet becomes an important factor.

[@CB-sx8xh]

I am in Australia and after returning home from a trip to Japan I had to install a bidet toilet seat at home :)

[@Bloodworia]

Nothing better to watch while eating, than clean Tokyo toilets.

[@jonathansakura]

I live in Tokyo and i miss american toilets is something i will never say lol 😅😅😅

[@filu_desu]

There's an interesting phenomenon in Japan, so far as I have noticed. SOME toilets are super clean, hi-tech and privacy minded.. While others considerably less so.. Many male public restrooms have urinals right by the door, completely on show to anyone walking by. I wonder why this is... My wife and female friends have told me that sometimes when they walk by these type of restrooms, some guy has deliberately displayed themselves.. Why should anyone have to witness that? Why is it that some toilets are designed in such a facilitating way to the well known problem in Japan.. And for a national of people who are considered to be focused on cleanliness, the amount of times I have seen guys leave restrooms without washing their hands is beyond me.. I love it here, don't get me wrong.. But there does exist some misconceptions about the way of things here.

[@ToliBera]

as someone who despises public toilets, (I know what evil lurks within.) these are very Aesthetic, but i'd still rather wait until i get home.

[@bobmetcalfe9640]

I loved Japanese toilets when I holidayed there once. Always wondered how those streams of water managed to hit the right spot no matter who was on them. Invisible laser beams? 😁

[@iKON지못미]

When i see japanese toilets they remind me the recent movie:Perfect days,watch it if you didnt do it already ☺
