  1. I saw you filming at the sketchy vending machine place back in February! I was wondering when this video would upload. I wanted to say hi but I didn't want to bother you.

  2. Ha I recognize that little nook in Akiba. It definitely smelled like people were using it as a bathroom when I went to check out the vending machines there…

  3. Fresh salads in a jar? Great idea! But I want to tell you something… Sometimes Shizuka makes me laugh for no apparent reason. Maybe because I think you are funny? Shizuka! But seriously, could you please stop making me laugh?😂😁🫤🤪

  4. Can you please explain how the lighting in your videos is so good when you're going through various settings 0_0. There's almost no difference between the quality of the outside shots and the quality of the indoor ones. I ask as someone that took video inside the subway and those lights were NOT flaterring XD

  5. Vending machine videos are an underserved niche on Youtube. These videos get massive views, potentially 1+ million. Do a 10 or so Japanese vending machines video series on your personal channel, Shizuka. 🦦 Not that I would watch them personally…

  6. We can't have straws in our drinks in Sweden because of the "global environmental problem with plastics" but Asia uses a half kilo per salad bowl to compensate…

  7. I think I watched another vlogger cover that exact same spot of vending machines with the random boxes. A Japan trip isn’t complete without trying at least of those weird ass vendos.

    Would love to try that ramen vendo though.

  8. sadly when i brought my gat and held it up for randsom it didnt surrender any pudding. im upset. especially as a gangster. lol. I had to come to terms with my mob boss there was no strawberry jam in the dojo that evening. and i might have gottenin into some trouble i should switch to iphone from android.

  9. OMG. That weird vending machine again. Just don't recommend the popcorn vending machine 😂

  10. 😂 actually cackled at "sketchy ass popcorn" 😂 you were so uncomfortable, it was hilarious!
    But the cake vending machines ❤️ 🥰

  11. Lol, you can get healthier, better tasting food in a japan vending machine than you can in an american supermarket.

  12. While I was in Japan, the only thing I got from a vending machine was a Coke several times, absolutely best Coke ever and was extremely surprised that it was tart. Strawberry shortcake looks so delicious coming from a can and your eyes lit up while trying it. Absolutely love pistachios. Laughed out loud while you were reading the sign. Absolutely Loved Every Minute Of Your Vending Machine Adventure

  13. when I think of quality food coming out of a vending machine I think it's the wave of the future, but I guess Japan has been having it for awhile, it also is convenient if all the shops are closed, I'm glad you guys visited Akihabara, I'd love to peruse some of their vending machines (for research purposes of course) 😄

  14. We have similar salad vending machine in the US called Farmers Fridge. It’s really good. They also started to incorporate some cold noodle dish as well. Unfortunately, most of these vending machine is only available at the airports.

  15. That sketchy vending corner with the dark alley and that letter… whole thing is questionable if you ask me. Squid Game vending machine there.

  16. Love Japanese vending machines please post more videos about vending machines
    and please visit the final fantasy & resident evil restaurant.

  17. Japan has the most insane vending machines, in the best way possible. The variety of products, locations and conveniences of the machines makes Japan a cool place to get the best food and goods on the streets than in a store.

  18. If there's ever a calamity that wipes out humans but leaves machines and power lines intact, future alien archeologists could be checking out vending machines serving mummified food.

  19. In Inokashira Park, in western Tokyo, there is a candied wasp larvae vending machine if you're brave enough!

  20. Yo-kai is actually headquartered in Fremont, CA. Of course, they know that Japan is one of the best markets to test their system. There's one in San Jose-Mineta International. Anyway thanks for the video!
