INSANE Myths about Foreigners in Japan
I’ve been told some crazy things about foreigners in Japan. Like my students thought our American hands were too big to use chopsticks, so they were shook when our fat freedom fingers figured it out. Myth busted. But even crazier was the time a random guy told us foreigners can’t hear cicas. I have no idea where he got this from. There are sometimes I wish we couldn’t hear these bugs because we can hear them loud and clear. Obviously, most people in Japan know better, but some myths are the worst. Like only foreigners need to wear deodorant. Yeah, anybody who’s been on the train during rush hour knows this is not true. Objective. Everyone stinky. Use deodorant. And the most out of pocket thing, only foreigners get STDs. Tap diode.

"Sorta a cap dere yo"
Dayo!?
High pitched kettle noise!
I want to go to Japan
to be fair for the deodorant one. a lot of asian folks miss the gene or hormones (i am not shure what) that let the rest of the humanaty sweat
There is a little bit of truth to the deodorant thing. Most East Asians have a non-active ABCC11 gene that makes them have less body odor. I'm 3/4 Japanese and can attest to this. I don't get noticeable body odor unless I'm very sweaty or haven't showered for a day. I currently live in the US and almost never wear deodorant. No one has ever commented on me smelling like BO.
But I know for a fact a humid Japanese summer and a crowded train will definitely smell. And tbf, it's probably mostly from the handful of guys that skipped a shower.
sore ga cap da yo is CRAZY
それがCAPだよ had me rolling on the floor laughing
Beem beem beem beem BEEEEEHKKKKHKMM!
The first time I heard a cicada in person was in St George, UTAH!
I LIVE IN THE US AND THESE CICADAS ARE SO LOUD OH MY GOD
いやセミじゃなく鈴虫なんだけど。 で、みーんみーんとみーんみんみんみんの違いってわかってるのかしら。
"Objection!"🗣🔥🔥
They be forgetting the difference between being from another country and being from another planet😂
Okay, these are CRAZY. Especially the deodorant…firsthand experience on that one. Phew.
I assure you, cicadas exist outside of Japan (Texas summer noises)
I love cicadas 😂
"fat freedom fingers" I can't 😭
I hate cicadas even though I'm not in Japan I'm in palestine
Uhm just asking since we also say "you arent able to eat fish" or "you don't know eating fish" because you hate fish. if you Translate it. In case the Cicadas do they mean Foreigners cant stand them ?
As someone from Kansas, I hear nothing but cicadas
we have those bastard bugs in america
That was AidenRants1 objection thing
Dude cicadas gp crazy in georgia. Yes in the us. Had a friend visit just from out of state and he was shocked by how loud they were
i always wonder how people believe ts but then i remember there’s mfs who voted for trump😭✌️
Cicadas are one of the most loudest bugs on this earth. I literally hear them whenever I stepped outside.
More myths please. Id like to hear one i can play along with
The stinky thing you said ,goes for the non brits in uk
The deodorant thing is actually true but for Korean people not Japanese.
the deodorant part is true though… East Asians dont have body odour, but we do xD
Fat freedom fingers wow
I believe it comes off there empire how they use to think Japan is better then everyone else
The ace attorney reference made the video better

Well I had a joke that would have gone well with the other one but it seems to be missing in action so I'll summerize the addition.

"It was grabbing fistfuls of his cloths and smelling it; it was looking like it was liking it too." 😮 Doesn't end well for that guy…
Monsters…
To bad the deoterant advice has been scrapped…
we have cicadas in the usa too lol they just come out every so many years also crazy how most schools in the usa have us & world history & the rest of the world just has where ever they are if theyr lucky
Objection!!
Why is no one talking about the Ace Attorney objection?!!
As an American from Illinois, as a kid we had SO MANY LOUD cicadas in my grandma's 3 acre yard.
There were generally a bigger population when I was younger, but yeah.
I thought they'd never leave & I used to be afraid of them, so at one point I cried to my parents, feeling like I was going to loose my mind "PLEASE, when will they just go away!!!" 😢
Now I find them cute. They remind me of childhood & I miss them when they're gone. 💜
The deodorant thing makes sense, actually. I heard in most Asian countries it’s common practice to consume a body odor eliminating capsule. I’ve heard they work very well!
We also have cicadas.
Them fake news 😂
“WRAP IT up yall “
Nice
