[Tawnia13]

[mpkio]

This video prooves you don't need to speak a language fluently in order to make friends. :)

[supraws]

how long is a regular school day there

[sharpiesnifferrawr]

Were you in High school when you did this ? ^^; Can you give information on how I can do this ? thank you

[aazlite]

aww in the beginning she ran all the way from home to bring her her glasses. How sweet.

[svt80221]

"it's a VIDEO," "i'm VIDEO'ing," like they're from a 3rd world country and don't know what the heck you're doing...  YOUR CAMCORDER WAS PROBABLY MADE IN JAPAN airhead.

[MostDopeJay]

@svt80221 they all act like they live in a 3rd world country throwing up peace signs and acting all stupid.. they didn't even understand what video was you dick lord.

[xaithoj]

@MostDopeJay you are a brainwashed white wanker arent you? japan is one of the most modernized countries in the world and at the forefront of technology only behind the US. they have the 3rd highest GDP in the world; more than any european country and behind only the US and China. so crawl back into whatever cave you crawled from and go back and finish your primary education before you start to comment on world affairs.

[MostDopeJay]

@xaithoj lol ok my head hurts with you talking so much bullshit i don't care about. but i will say one thing. you suck dick for a living and america need to atomic bomb your ass again. seriously you all look like dumb motherfuckers. that's all i'm sayin. and open your fucking closed eyes you all look like clones of brock from pokemon

[xaithoj]

@MostDopeJay awwwwwwww i touched a nerve in the little ignorant american who got called out for being a dumbass. hey, roll over and ask your sister for advice next time before you open your big fat mouth and get bitch-slapped back to reality.

[550coco550]

your shooting sucks

[HumblyInService]

Oh, that is so awesome! :D How is it?!

[DemiAries]

wtf wearing slippers on school?! If I'd do that here I'll get a weeks expulsion. Still it looks super duper fun there.

[tomboybarbieclique]

what program was this?

[markdegill]

:)



[FoxhoundMoses]

I'm pretty sure you live on the same street they shot the American version of the Grudge... not sure if that's a good thing though... :P

[SkyFlyZz]

Why do a lot of japanese and korean high school students have straight cut bangs?

[MrRookitty]

@SkyFlyZz It's the popular hairstyle plus I guess it's the most standard flattering cut to their faces

[supermasterchief117]

i wish i was there XD

[psychoclan]

love ur video . i wish i could visit japan one day maybe have a japanese girlfriend too...

[kbqncf]

why all the students are girl?

[LuluMedly]

@kbqncf it was probably an all girls school.

[SplashOfRedandYellow]

lol, how man y times di dyo u s ay video?

[xxLiLMiChIxx]

do u go to an all girl school?

[SailorMoonAMV]

Wow is it just me or are the japanese really friendly and hyper? i wanted to ask u how old u were when u did this what inspired u and did u know any japanese except basics: eg konichiwa arigato ect...becuz im only 13 and this looks rly good i always wanted to experience diff cultures

[nonubusiness]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. What an experience this must have been!

[asiankid107]

Rice seasoning = Hurikake ^^

[Beveque]

When ordering a school uniform, girls can choose how long their skirt is. There's long, medium, and short. At least in the school I attended, but I'm sure it's like that most places.

[MrTwinky97]

anime in bus!! ZOMG MUST GO JAPAN NOW!!!!!!!!

[KRL1407]

Always are cloudy ??

[natashailovepatrick]

I WANNA GO THERE SO BAAAD.

[iping12345678]

6:30 i thinks she's cute.. xD

[SakuraShippuden160]

I saw that you end school at 5 after noon.

Do japanes studen end school in japan soo late?

[NeverendS89]

@SakuraShippuden160 not just in Japan, most of school in Asia did

[TheNightowl55]

Wow... It's so open and nice! Windows and everything!~

[ogr2]

I really like and appreciate you take your time to make that kind of videos to show how life in japan is. I have a question: Why do you speak in english all the time qhen you speak with your classmates? Do you speak japanese fluenty?

[tolugo87]

I can't die before I trip to Japan!

[hutarinihakotoba]

↓Don't watch anime in illegal way!↓

[thrillxofxice]

Um...are you people ignorant? :/ Of COURSE it's not like it is in anime. You all probably don't know this, but the stuff you're watching are male fantasies. xD Anime portrays Japan in a way that the artists wish it really was. You can't say you "know" Japan just because of anime or manga. It's annoying and a bit disrespectful. Anime and manga are fun, but that's not real Japan. :3

[WinchesterFreak45]

@thrillxofxice

Not always! I agree with you though, you cannot form your opinions on what japan is like based on anime. But not all anime is complete male fantasies and bull.

[MrTruePanda]

@WinchesterFreak45 well anime is kinda the same, except the skirt is not really that short. it to ur knee.

[Kurisuta1]

@thrillxofxice I know, I get annoyed when I meet anime fans and some of them want to go to Japan and *really* do think it's like anime. But while anime is a great part of Japanese culture, Japanese culture isn't like an anime! It may reflect things about it but it isn't -it-. and the actual culture and lifestyle is so interesting, it's bothers me that a lot of people who claim to be so into and in love with Japan b/c of anime don't want to learn about the real Japan ):

[xxsweetyflowerxx]

when does japanese school normally start in the morning ?! :D

[sofarsogood66]

kumamoto



[fallenangelbones]

if i had to wear a long skirt like that, i would just roll the top part of the skirt to make it more style-ish!! <3^^ (more short haha)

[Adreestyle]

Thanks!

[WaffleCakeSyrup]

lol "i dont know what that is but i eat it anyways" LOOL who else thinks thats funny

[masta865]

the Japanese sure love that peace sign...

[xPlaidDreamsx]

This made my head hurt so much but it's so worth it! Japan looks so fun!

[sakurachick123]

yes for the love of muffinz its a video!!!! XD

[zabylurt]

fuck going to japan it will be like fallout in real life, that atom bomb sure put a number of mutant slant eyed people in that area

[xilitol]

@zabylurt what? you ugly piece of shit come to asia and say that again, we will fucking cut your head off.

[AllNamesAreJustTaken]

which city is it?

[KrissFao]

WABAKI

[90luny]

how long is a school day?

[ADDiEbaerchen]

i love how they love the word video^^

it was an awsome video, did you enjoyed the time?

[travonepleasant]

So cool yet so akward. As much as I love everything about Japan. I dont think I can live there for long. lol. So much of a sudden change.

[flaminbabies735]

I am going to go during 10th or 11th grade with a friend, and they said that you need to have 2 years of Japanese. Do you speak any besides "Moshi moshi". Also, I laughed super hard, because in Japan, they really only say Moshi moshi on the phone. You are supposed to say Ohayo, or Ohayo gozaimasu (to people above you, etc...). Girl says: Chikura, You: I don't know what that is, but it's good. lmfao.

[CoolColorBlack]

@flaminbabies735 r u going through a program? i wanna go with a friend too

[Kurisuta1]

@flaminbabies735 only for six weeks too o_o I understand summer exchanges but I don't know that I could stand only being in a Japanese family/school for six weeks. Once you get start to get acclimated and start learning the language more you have to go! I'd never want to leave xD

[DNOuran818]

I've been all the video asking myself if you know how to speak Japanese? I don't say that to offend but aaaaall the time they were asking ''video?'' you only could answer in english? That aside, I loved the video, it's obvious you had a great time there :) hope you will treasure that memories for all that people that would want to go but cannot >.<

[strictlyformyninja]

Your class gets out at 5pm? O__O

[CoolColorBlack]

if u wanna go for anime thats freakin ridiculous.

[Cptraktorn]

@CoolColorBlack indeed it is! it makes me happy when i see other reasonable people.

[Piyaphob]

Niceeee!

I'm a Thai and I used to study in US for 1 year as an exchange student. This video reminds me of the feeling when you are alone in thee whole new environment, meeting with new people, living in a different society. It took a bit of time before I got used to it ^_^

[rachaelw119]

I really want to go to highscool for a year or two in Japan, it looks really cool! Thanks for the video!

[saekosasori]

hey katherine can you tell me is any ghosts around there????please answer me

[HermieTv]

awww japanese are sooo nice *w*

[heyitsjayy12]

omg i thought the bus was driving itself ;P hahah

[mojya37]

[MissChris15]

Your classmates are very friendly!

[mishanukonuko]

あー見たこと有る制服だと思ったw.楽しく過ごされたようで何よ­りです。

[KittieGeorge]

Katherine, The bus stop you got on is Tatsuda Elementary School which a popular Japanese comedienne, Suzanne, studied.

Moshi moshi is for when you answer a phone. 

[lujan2500]

Q.Q YO QUIERO IR A JAPON :D



[BallsInYourJawsBitch]

Geez, it's like they have too much time on their hands.

I want to go to Japan, apparently they have more hours in a day to give a shit about life.

[MsHetalia101]

do you go to a all girls school?

[sexxxyricky]

this vid is super cool!!



[aigoo13579]

2:44. KOIZORA!! xD idk, it reminds me of koizora xD

[SweetPunk20]

how was ur first day of school and how did you make friends...can u tell me? cause this april i will be schooling in japan..i'm kinda nervous..tnx if u do

[Frostix95]

Thumbs up if you wanna go Japan because of Anime's



[bjorhildur]

@Frostix95 that's a stupid reason to want to go, Japan is nothing like stupid anime, GET A LIFE.

[Cptraktorn]

@Frostix95 if you want to go there only because of the animes, i would say it aint the place for you...

[kagomeforreal]

@Frostix95 YES!!!!!!! and cuz its awsome :3

[David256230]

@Frostix95 I dont want to go there because of just anime, my dream is to become a mangaka so manga is a career i want to pursue after uni. Sure that might lead to me getting an anime but its a totally different reason. Making manga in europe is just not worth it.

[testplmnb]

@Don't worry i have to wake up 4am to go to school and back at 8pm from technical school (in poland) then ending school at 5pm is not bad :d

[yosh1yosh2]

It's a real pity you are not speaking in Japanse. Besides that, really nice video.This makes me jealous haha ;))

[MorinaLucine]

thats a beautiful walk to school.

[MorinaLucine]

@MorinaLucine well comute

[worst700]

女子校だ

[fyrendeverian]

@ 0xXchococatxX0 ... Because the younger the girls are, the longer the skirts are. Opposite for boys, the younger they are, the shorter their pants are. In other words, elementary girls have ankle-length skirts and boys have shorts. Junior high school girls have knee-length skirts and boys can wear pants. High school girls have short skirts, sometimes short, short skirts! And boys usually wear baggy pants....

[fyrendeverian]

oops, my bad wrong person I meant @handpro

[MTCDiana]

@katherinem22 With what program did you went?

[handpro]

Why is the skirt so looooong ?

Isn't like that on anime :(

[MorinaLucine]

@handpro to reduce the amount of panty shots.

[camillegiggle]

@handpro that was an all girls school so they dont really need to wear their skirts short. the girls usually wear their skirts shorter at co-ed schools.

[Subaru798]

@handpro cuz guys make anime, and guys like sexy short skirts with big boobs. the stuff u watch in anime, isnt like how it is in real life. even how they speak, thats not how real jap ppl speak (talking bout subs) like how we dont talk like Popeye or spongebob... so no, anime ppl dont dress or talk like real ppl. not dissing anime tho, everyone loves anime xD including me. haha.

[PolinaKHeartsJapan]

@Subaru798 I totally agree with that :P

[chaezshin94]

@handpro as far as i know, they wear skirt that depends on what grade level or high school level they're in...

[julesj98]

no homework??

[TaYuK0]

If she spoke in Japanese that would mean putting in subtitles...honestly. If I made a video about Japan I would SPEAK in English if I wanted my audience to be people who speak English. On top of that 3:23 'Or so I've heard' shows this person knows Japanese. Unfortunately I couldn't watch this whole entire video. (Wish I could watching videos like these makes me feel not so sad that I won't be able to go to Japan with my friends. 2 of them planned to go to an Onsen.)

[0xXchococatxX0]

everything looks just in fruits basket! :D the classroom, the way they're labeled. The uniforms are like in anime shows. :DD

[phuckdu]

is it an all-girl school? well it seem so cuz i didn't c any boy

[sachoslks]

One Piece at 1:53

[CAesuoMykcM]

Really nice video.

[dessibu]

help me say hi to the girl in glasses @6.29 :D

[foorboobs]

your voice sounds really fimiliar, did you post a video of you going to disney world in japan on yesjapan?

[MsCarolinaMatsuda]

why you don't appear in the video? I would like to know how ocidentals look in these cute uniforms ...

[Officiel1UP]

You should speak a little bit japanese when you go to japan as an exchange student...

[kagome123654]

Do you have to speak at least the basics of the japanese language,

if you want to go to japan as an exchange student?

[CoolColorBlack]

@kagome123654 depends on the progam. some say at least 2 yrs but if u get a scholarship basic is totally fine

[pheromonekid]

What prefecture is this?

[PajuRlz]

Anyone notice One Piece poster? :o

[smash0209]

hi love upload more video update from japan pls thnks love ur vid coz its so natural no editing and acting was done thnks

[danielgtr6]

4:48 though 5:20 *the girl speaking in japanese, "hey friend! i see you are recording and might be having dificulties using only one hand. Would you want me to hold the video recorder for you?" responce: "Video! its a video" lol really good video though xD i wish i lived in japan and went to school there xD

[revron77]

@danielgtr6

LMFAO ahhh you have to laugh at her cultural ignorance.. (The good kind)

I would love to go and learn Japanese.. maybe live there for a year. But the whaling and the crazy right wing groups have really put me off the country to tell you the truth.

[danielgtr6]

@revron77 LMAO yea, i want to go visit and maybe kive a while there too lol but my first pick is germany xD

[killer55527]

When she said to them it's a video they were like WTF is she saying lol (x but dud omg I want to go to japan school but with guys and girls

[Kagebushin01]

guessing that was/is All Girls school?

[DarkerThanBlackAndy]

my mom has already decided that im going to go to japan as an exchange student because my dream has always been to be a japanese high school student :D

[TheLollipopAhh]

I think they speak really slow O.O and I don't speak japanese. Compared to the speed they talk in animes and dramas, the teacher seems like she's trying to speak like SUPER slow.

[marqueskart]

I'm favouriting this video and I don't give a fuck if it makes me look like a pedophile.

Jesus this is literally just like one of my JAPANESE ANIMEYS. Closest thing I've found to the stereotype of anime-schoolgirl life.

[Fluxxxed62]

Y is it tht in anime all the girls r hot but in real Japan there pretty ugly

[Sprengtos]

American: This is a video.

Japaneese: Huh?

[TiesOfAffection]

Wow you are so american. You talk to them in english expecting them to understand you. The hell.

You don't even try to speak japanese.

[lenandrinmegafan]

@TiesOfAffection she might not know any :<

[samipso]

@TiesOfAffection She's like what, 16? She's there for 6 weeks. Can't expect too much from her.

[zamdsad]

@TiesOfAffection lol well if you look at the description it say's she is only there for 6 weeks.

[HCvarietyshow]

@TiesOfAffection please don't think that all Americans are like that! I'm American and i'm learning Japanese. I Think its better to speak to Japanese people in their native language.

[Dekabricks]

@TiesOfAffection HUP HOLLAND HUP

[Pwyllugh]

@TiesOfAffection She has only been in Japan for 6 weeks at the time of recording, so maybe she just can't speak that well in Japanese.

Just saying.

[RHIANNAKM]

@Pwyllugh She could at least would try and say basic words like 'yes' in Japanese. And after six weeks she wouldn't know how to say 'it is' or 'get out' or 'say' ? SERIOUSLY?! Either she's dumb or making zero effort

[Pwyllugh]

@RHIANNAKM Well yes. But who knows, maybe she did this for US, so that we can understand her.

Don't judge people too harshy :-)

[RHIANNAKM]

@Pwyllugh ahh i suppose you're right , thanks for attempting to make the internet a reasonable and tolerant place c:

[Burikami]

@RHIANNAKM Then everyone would assume shes a wannabe and not acting "her race".I'd rather be called dumb american instead of weeboo.

[RHIANNAKM]

@Burikami are you kidding me? When you go to a country TO LIVE THERE for any amount of time, you go in order to experience another culture, and language is part of that. By not even attempting to speak Japanese, it makes her seems either too dumb to pick up essential basics, or too lazy too bother. BTW nobody would call her a weaboo wtf. Not unless she was also suddenly putting on a 'kawaii' anime voice, talking about mangas, and doing weird asian dances in lolita gear.

[Burikami]

@RHIANNAKM When I hear people talk about how white people act,they say that they can't appreciate other cultures.

I hear alot more people say weeabee's just speak japanese.

[Beveque]

@RHIANNAKM She obviously knows how to speak Japanese. :I Not only is it required in order to attend school there, but she's answering people who are speaking Japanese even if her answers are in English. She's obviously speaking English for the viewers. So before you go calling other people dumb, make sure you're not being dumb first.

[RHIANNAKM]

@Beveque maybe before you go bringing up months old posts again, you should make sure that you actually read ALL THE POSTS I MADE. Honestly, before calling people dumb for calling people dumb, make sure you're not going to look dumb doing it. c;

[XiloveKoRnX]

@TiesOfAffection

Stop generalizing. I hate it when people do that.

And she was only there for 6 weeks. You expect her to be totally fluent if at all a little understandable? .___.

[hotshot461]

@TiesOfAffection im pretty sure that she can speak japanese... (its kind of required) just that is she spoke japanese to US we wouldnt have any friggin idea what she is saying...

[hotshot461]

@hotshot461 sorry, "if she spoke japanese"

[WordoftheElderGods]

@TiesOfAffection You seem to like stereotypes.

[MonstersVampZombies]

How can you study if you can't understand nihongo?

[XxAmayaSanxX]

What time in the morning did school start? How long is a school day? Is there one teacher for many subjects or one teacher per subject?

[fallyygirl]

what part of japan were you in?

[administratorius1]

i fink she doesn't understand that this is a video :DDD

[hpatdh077]

only girls are in that school?? no boys?

[witnessdreamer]

[omnimon64]

Wait... Sooo you don't know how to speak japanese yet? But you can understand japanese? O_o

[wielu91]

god. this is awesome. very well video :)

[h8su1]

Hey I heard that the Japanese hate Americans is that true. And how are the girls there I mean like is like the US or are they shy mean nice or I'm embarrassed to say but are they like their anime?

[fabo929]

[GabrielCloudniine]

How adorable, the same Japanese classical anime unifrom!

[alex123453828]
