Driving in the Mall !

[jstntlvr]

I will never understand why Nissan never sent the S15 to the US (or why we got the KA instead of SR in the S13 and 14) such a gorgeous car

[mectechman1]

:)

This reminds me of the likewise shopping mall in Oyama Tokyo!

Great ambiance and a thrill for small town guy like me to see this type of mall. I remember the constant presence of sound, trying to catch the attention of prospect costumers. And here it is fair game to be loud, in contrast to places where you are supposed to be calm and quiet and not "invade" on others "private space" (ex train and such).

It was hard to get used to this cacophony, but that's the way it is! :)

[SubieFtw01]

this always happens in taiwan

[jpnmusic2]

Damn. Look at that smexy S15. :OO

[itsraininglool]

Oh how i need to move to japan.

[sergyserg1]

S15 bro

[macktheknife888]

That guy who is driving through the shopping mall has been watching the Movie The Blues Brothers too many times.

[TheTrueLifeChanger]

that would be so AUSOME !!!! I have always wanted to drive thru our mall LOL

[INEEDNAWZZZ]

NISSAN SILVIA <3 <3 <3

[Holdnitdown240]

5 stars for an s15 Silvia!

[gillianorley]

"Lots of space in this mall."

[PixieNyanChan]

May I ask something that might be a bit rude?

I hope you wouldn't mind...

at 0:25 - why are the girls looking at you?

I mean - they looked at you as if you did something silly or wrong...

is it very odd to film things in Japan?

[galaxypa]

I love the car part XD

[nirmal7able]

This is near to koenji station not Osaka jacka*s

[carbonxcopy]

LOL! S15 drivers, eh. ;)

[javawaky]

大須だ、懐かしい・・・

[ItzLegendz2K9]

@javawaky 私は母を知っている

[AndreyPurtov]

What the hell the white Silvia did there ?? O-o

[IchigosPengin]

Was that legal??? Can you just drive a car in there???

[kanserstyx]

ermmmmm!... yayyy"?

[GreanEksitSine]

Disco pants and haircuts...

[santiks]

bicycle is ok... driving is really weird!

[zman1234ful]

if we did that in amarica the police crack down on us in a heart beat

[phillip8739]

Just shopping in my car..nothing wrong there..

[meb659]

My friend drove through a mall here in the San Francisco Bay Area. And spent 35 days in jail. LOL

[HoneyMuff1n]

s15 ftw lol

[nihonsuki]

I think it's great that the Japanese were able to preserve these neighborhood shopping areas, rather than building a big shopping mall and driving all these small stores out of business (although they do have their share of megamalls, mostly out in the suburbs).

[EWS60008]

Is this Osaka? It looks a nice shopping area to explore.

[hiphoplivs]

how would one go about purchasing a car in japan? and do they have certain rules or things you need to follow for a specific type of car for example like a sports car, truck, suv? or is it all the same?

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@hiphoplivs

Covered it in the wheels and how to play lists

[hiphoplivs]

@TheJapanChannelDcom alright ill have a look!

[whoo689]

None of the mall shoppers there thought it was rude or weird for a guy to be driving in that narrow space with all those pedestrians around?? O.o

[wingersx]

dats awesome dude

[RyuuMakato42]

This reminds me of a mall we went to in Himeji once. Very cool

[romeosafadi]

the hardest part is buying something, and not knowing if its fake or not.. or are they all cheap? or are there good japanese stuff? hmm...

[cdutta1990]

Is it illegal to drive in a mall?

[guguigugu]

i love it how almost every japan video i see features at least one sylvia, skyline, rx7 etc :)

[hiphoplivs]

@guguigugu i know isent it dope, japanese know how to make a sports car thats for damn sure

[floydrose4noobs]

ABC mart FTW!

they were everywhere in japan

i bought so much shoes....lol

[xREALGoodbyeHumourx]

Are you from the West side of Australia by any chance?

[zecur]

Are you living there by yourself. I dont mean to be rude or anything

but im curious in their culture whats dating or marriage, or living with your girlfriend/boyfriend, like. And how is it accepted?

[finalfantasy4everock]

Yoshi- we have a place like that in my town with a parking lot in front, and one row of stores across the parking lot and yet --we call it a Mall here in Canada ! lol

[evelluchia]

i see this alot in japan (i here alot of amaricans call it a mall with a dive threw) but theres alot of these types of malls around its mainly for the persons conveniance they dont have to carry all of there stuff out to the car they just go to a store and get what they need and then be on there way

[hashrulsubzero]

aa nice silvia s15 ;D

[FASCANTRON]

I just got back from japan last night, I went to several of these, sometimes in English these are referred to as "shopping arcades", but they aren't really common at all in America. You should go back at night, as they're full of japanese buskers and other street performers.

[mamaito88]

one stop shop!5stars for the mall driving

[ishiyoyoshi]

silvia s15 (:　

[yoshi2700]

lol its not a mall its called a shotengai like in kanji is 100 store and then street so basically its a street with many stores while a mall will be a BUILDING with many stores

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@yoshi2700

In English it is called a mall.

It could also be called a pedestrian mall.

They do not have to be contained within a building to be called that.

[79queenteen]

@TheJapanChannelDcom

in Malaysia's mean, its call covered street! its only street and shoplots... just street.. not mall...

[stickmanpivot]

@yoshi2700 duuuuuumasss. have facts b4 correcting ppl

[chunchuck2000]

abc mart!!!

[weixiaotiffy]

omg u serious? you can DRIVE THRU?? thats madddd

[kelijo7]

so where is this? we are traveling to Japan and trying to find places to go.

[rcktmn3412]

0_0 pretty Nissan S-15 =P

[Magic1999992]

Is this Legal in Japan? Or is it just a miracle? :P

[nikkilovesjrock09]

wow, never seen anything like that before! :)

[Charger3091]

Thats a nice Silvia.

[Chuloloc]

Awesome. Things about Japan may seem strange but that's ok.

[DarkNSF]

sweet s15 SILVIA!

[brollicon]

wow nice mall what city is it in and whats the name

[worldtravel101]

5 stars for driving in the mall! only in japan! lol

[katsoup00]

i want jacket D: please..

[beastxmoder]

gotta love ur s15s hahaha

[SpikeRazzor]

Too bad we have to use that corrosive salt on our roads in North America, look how clean that S15 is since they apparently don't use salt in Japan.

[Ekalavya]

DAMN!! i want to go shopping in any mall in Japan...and buy those shiny puffy jackets.....but i dont know if i can pull it off if i wear it in canada.

[PriusRider]

pfff.... It was not even a Prius <.<

Or an IQ. Do they sell the IQ in japan??

We got it in germany. I just know about those "KCars". small and shitty. only in japan sold.

[DSGL]

What the hell, I just discovered a bunch of videos that never showed up in my subscriptions box at the time:/ Bloody annoying, great vids anyway!

[greengaurd]

5 stars for the s15 sylvia driving through the mall......

[VexyBoo82]

I wonder. The jackets that you zoomed on, looked like Russ-K~?

[phillip8739]

That person in the White car, (Nissan Silvia S15) Must of been either an amateur drifter or a Wangan street racer. Usually you don't see typical Japanese people driving around in tuned up car like that. The tuning/drift scene in Japan is wonderful, something I'd definitely take advantage of checking out in Japan.. A must..

[FireThunderTV]

Haha, weird. Yea, and those jackets with that shiny stuff on it - weird too.

[colombia2214]

Thanks for the video it brings back memories, oh yeah, nice Nissan Silvia that was driving thru the mall.

5 stars!!!

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@colombia2214

Thanks for the 5!!

[theatarisblueskies]

@colombia2214 thats a s15

[kaushilopez]

I would give 5* as well. I shopped alot at Kawaramachi in kyoto very similar to this shopping place but much bussier ,, honestly never seen a Car driving inside the shopping strip...!!! weird is right

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@kaushilopez

Thanks for the 5!

[Colortiniz]

There was a story about a fire at the "Blues Brothers" mall in July 2009. Here's a snip:

The long-closed mall has .. decayed....In 2006, city officials touted the revitalization of the 57-acre mall after it was sold to Chicago developer John Deneen.

Those dreams came to a halt when, according to what authorities said..Deneen was arrested & indicted on charges that he & an alleged accomplice went to the office of one of his creditors with brass knuckles, shotgun and a .22-handgunwith a silencer.

[Colortiniz]

This place has got everything ;-)

[Luminasita]

5*, "I know a shortcut!"

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@Luminasita

Good one :-)

[sessoms11290]

Wow a car driving through the mall, you don't see that everyday, 5 stars :P

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@sessoms11290

Thanks for the 5!

[Colortiniz]

I was going to make a Blues Brothers comment but looks like that would be redundant :-)

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@Colortiniz

Don't want to join the chorus?

:-D

[skleung]

cool! and a S-15 nonetheless! awesome

[shadedscript]

hahaha wow that car was so unexpected

[KrutoiStudent]

what a baller

[GrandMasterSuperPhD]

hahahha.....funny.

[Akaliko]

liscense plate no 15-01  hey police! check him out !

[cjthenoisemaker]

Got an idea, LETS go shopping!

[NextNate03]

Is it one way street?

[Deathscythehell85]

That is weird,reminds me of the blues brothers movie except no police chase.

[kurintosan]

5*s didnt know they had that.

one thing to me is that, its a bit weird cause theres a lot of people walking around therefore, itll be annoying driving lol

[sauron1grenoble]

well since it was an alley with shops before they put a roof on it and called it a mall, i think it's understandable!

[nunobelo]

wow! a car inside a mall :O

[Evilhamster13]

Good thing there is a roof over the mall....wouldnt want cars slipping on ice in that little of a path ;P

[mellowsky47]

I love all the colors and I love how Japanese girls are masters of "Cute". So stylish.

[AbortedSheepFetus]

Hopefully no one or the shops got hurt :\

Great video as usual, keep it up :)

[euwan98]

i think its in osu!

[euwan98]

is that in osu?in nagoya?

[ladyserenity5]

Yeah, where is that? It kind of looks like Ichibacho in Sendai. Let us know! ^_^

[stankyrearend]

i would be nervous all the time at a mall if i knew someone could just drive through it. plus arent japanese cars like really quiet? i couldnt tell in the vid, how loud was that car in there?

[iZde4d]

oh lols i've always wanted to do that

[pekinobo]

Cool. Might be even more cool since people didn´t seem to react and thinking it was wierd seeing a car in the mall.

[grassnuggets]

Great video!

[FourAngelsX]

0o that mall is so cool

ty for the video

[Martynas94]

0:50 omg i love SILVIA :)

[XxChuBByFaCexX]

[PhilClemensUK]

Wow they write in English too? Thats great!

Just turned 15 today so I'm almost old enough to buy a ticket to japan :-P

[Dragon22873]

Happy B-day Phil!

[PhilClemensUK]

@Dragon22873

[xmadteaparty]

Happy birthday! ^^

[PhilClemensUK]

@xmadteaparty#

[Dragon22873]

Nice pair of legs that got my attention at 0:36. Sorry, but it has to be said!

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@Dragon22873

Yeah, I saw her a few times that day.

Close to zero degrees and she was just wearing a long t-shirt!

[Dragon22873]

@TheJapanChannelDcom

A very fine fight to look at, wouldnt you agree? You cant say no, considering your video about 'What i like in Japan'. You sure do like your waterparks ;) Nice video!

[SonySasuke]

nice silvia

[ssoloness]

lol x)

[zangoheyho]

haha i lol'd ^^

[TheOneReesy]

Great video :P well tbh we dn't have many "malls" were i'm at atm just the place is littered with big supermarkets.

[bellsmyre49]

IMaybe his sat-nav thinks it is still a street -

[Liviusan92]

nice one ^^ . btw where is this mall ?

[Syc0warden]

girl at 38 seconds nice outfit

[Hioushi]

Is that allowed?? or the guy just felt like it. I mean, it does look at it was a road originaly.

[aichan86]

wow nice s15 :D

[Kikujirosan]

another cool vid, keep up the good work. any plans for a video featuring Mt. Fuji?

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@Kikujirosan

Every time I go it is covered in cloud!

But I think I posted one here somewhere!

[OrenjiKoomori]

Nice Car!! =D

[NodnarbRS]

I do that all the time. In America you can test drive those show cars around the mall.

(^_^)

[waltermh111]

Dont say america because I have lived in a few states and been to alot of malls, and you cannot do that at all.

There isnt even room to drive a vehicle around in most malls.

You just live in an unusual place if they test drive vehicles in malls.

[NodnarbRS]

Dude I'm just joking...driving cars in an

American mall would be insane..hehehe.. didn't you see my (^_^) face?

[Danandria]

@NodnarbRS Uh huh, must be an interesting mall then.

[wolvermonkey]

LOL, reminds me of The Blues Brothers movie. They drove through a mall too. Wish I could go shopping there. I saw a toy store there too. You'll find me in there.

[cjthenoisemaker]

@wolvermonkey Excellent movie in my opinion.

[wolvermonkey]

Yep, one of my all time faves as well.

[Yakfuji]

Yeah I had the Blues Brothers tune running through my head too when the car appeared :)

[10mintwo]

That mall actually still exists. Dixie Square. It's America's finest dead mall, abandoned for 30 years.

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

@10mintwo

Awesome movie!

[NagoyaGA]

That almost looks like Osu Kannon near Sakae!

We have bikes ride through there all of the time, but that's a first seeing a car!

[TheSuperGamePuggBros]

LOL It's a mall not a garage for your car! +_+

[rioishikawa]

i want... that nissan silvia S15.... i want it.... but damn... driving in a mall... you don't see that everyday... i can't imagine that happening in new york haha

[glasseyelashes]

i had a dream once that i was driving in a mall. it's so strange seeing it come true. XD

[MavmanFilms]

5 stars for seeing a Nissan 200SX driving inside the mall! :-D

[rioishikawa]

Nissan Silvia S15 in japan bro haha

[MavmanFilms]

Here in Australia, it's 200SX Silvia

[Halk52]

For all your shiny puffy jacket needs!

[kalmtraveler]

That is pretty weird, but hey it's Japan! Definitely have not seen a car driving through a mall before!

[shynekogirl1]

omfg!!! xD

if a car were to drive in a mall here:

1st of all they wuld get arrested xD

2nd of all i would be like wtf?!?!

3rd of all people wuld probably be runnin 4 their life xD

[Cebrail1991]

Nice mall :)

[m3andchip5]

Looks like a lot of sales going on! :) How long do these New Year Sales (or winter sale?) go on for?

[DropkickMurphysFan01]

Is this by chance in Okaido?

[djduelkeentokers]

is that an s15...???OMG

[LimmingKenny]

Haha, that's cool

[161someone]

Malls in Japan are awesome, looks like a market street but with a roof!
