[TBustah]

My old grade school's music room used to have one of those.

The music teacher used to play the "Rugrats" theme on it for us.

[bhandari24]

Japanese Kids are really really Kawaii !!

[radioclash9]

[N0CT1S22]

[HOLDxYOURxHEADxHIGH]

[famousashtray]

and the what now?..........

[jakemonrean]

Shes realy talented and her children were cute!

[CyrusValentine]

She's extremely talented but its sad that most of the people on youtube only care about her because she's Japanese.

Also, her daughters are adorable.

[PrincessJoycie]

AH ~

OMOSHIROI ~ O:

Kyoto is so beautiful. (: and her children are so kawaii.

[StylishShogun]

[rooroo1988]

omg ur hot

[Stavekoff]

Wow, you suck.

[thenecochan]

Hey, i'm trying to say something positive! why did you say that!

[Stavekoff]

Because you're talking like a faggot.

[kirkwood1991]

amazing moon face

[reg373]

"However, I'm going to take a guess based on the context and say that it's probably 'hanarete'"

Good guess. Some people are just musical geniuses I suppose -- found a cool site; Balkingpoints ; incredible satellite view of earth

[franzhab]

Schön, 5 ***** - 美しく、5 *****

[StylishShogun]

2 girls will not miss u why not? cuz :1-u going gaijin place which japanese dont like gaijin, 2- u dont know how to teach love to kids in japan, thats reason many child means to each others and many kids 12years old suicide.

[hydrablue888]

shes great..

Kyoto is beautiful

[beaulibas]

cool,though i am not there these days,but remember beautiful sakura and japanese music

[ueoaueoaueoa]

頑張ってください！

[EmiMac20]

That's cool!

[randomat2]

damn... no wonder i want to get married to a japanese girl.this lady was not the youngest one but still very pretty and she plays good ;)

[gordonkimble]

mecha kawaii yo!

[fatjulianisfat]

Cute

[rodazi]

Because conformity is so important in Japan, this woman is probably a social pariah.

[shautora]

I'm sure she could get away with playing the marimba, musicianship is highly respected.

[EnterMyOffice]

Don't you mean "kowaii" ?

[nSwarm]

'kowaii' is actually the equivalent of scary, so no, the one you're referring to who said 'kawaii' (cute) had it right.

[EnterMyOffice]

I meant to type the 'a.' Never mind.

[speedycatz]

Scary is "kowai" not "kowaii". Additional "i" makes a huge difference, "kowaii" means nothing.

[Turbokaratelaserpuma]

well, aren't you quite the armchair wapanese?

[speedycatz]

No, I'm not. I'm a native Japanese. I'm just trying to correct them, why so negative?

[Turbokaratelaserpuma]

nobody speaks english in japan except for simple phrases like "spare me my life", so stop fucking lying

[speedycatz]

Well, suits yourself. I've been learning English since the age of 3 and I'm currently studying in the US as a college student.

[shautora]

....What's a "Wapanese"? And what's a "Weaboo"?

[link5062]

It's a white person who is obsessed with Japanese-Related things.

[0x20]

It is South Korean's delusion. lol

[1DesertSailor]

She's Japanese.

[shautora]

Hm, well that doesn't seem very kind...

[link5062]

Haha, yeah dude! I hate those Weaboos!

[blackcommander11]

i guess minna-san are just jealous

[Bhinder14]

Wow your some pedo!

[jaydoesitright]

i forgot a word...

the first word was hanna

[Mach0pig]

nice

[cristined]

carpintero del cielo,enter

[DragonWaveMaster]

I wish you, Good luck, and great success! :)

[jaydoesitright]

re te mo wasu re nai de ku're

can someone tell me what this means?

[swordfishsteak]

Jaydoesitright,

'rete' is the end of a verb so you can't properly translate it unless you know the first part.

However, I'm going to take a guess based on the context and say that it's probably 'hanarete' (from the verb hanareru which means to separate or to leave somewhere). In that case the other unwritten part would most probably be 'me', so it means "Even if we are apart, don't forget me". It may also be 'koko wo hanarete mo' which is "even if you leave here/even if you go away".

[alyssajonas13]

great music you ARE SO INSPIRING TO ME

あなたがニューヨークに行くことが満足している! これはエキサイ ティングだ!
