  • They shamelessly steal the cowboy bebop soundtrack at :17.

  • Comparing what happened in Fukushima with a smelly fart is just NOT right.

    I live here in Japan and know for a fact the area around Fukushima will be inhabitable for many many years...that is NO fart.

    Shame on the rich/powerful japanese nuclear lobby that is able to brainwash the japanese from a young age...BTW, find&watch the cartoon about Plutonium they made 20 years ago that was screened in schools all over the nation.

  • @Keolarrapao The "nuclear lobby" is really bad at lobbying. Government sanctioned regulations around the world are the reason why nuclear plants cost up to 5 times as much as they should and take more than half a decade to build when they should take 3 years tops. In contrast, coal, oil, gas, wind, and solar pollute more and kill more workers (and citizens in the case of fossils) than nuclear, while costing more than nuclear should. Yeah, that nuclear lobby sure is something.

  • @Keolarrapao Also the worst thing about the accident is actually the displacement of all those people and the twisting of reports into some nightmarish amalgam of YOU'LL NEVER LIVE THERE AGAIN and STEP ON IRRADIATED SOIL AND YOU'LL DIE IN 20 YEARS bullshit.

    Honestly, of the 50 sites irradiated by Fukushima, most are only around 20 mSv/yr. Iran seems to manage fine in a high Radon environment at 250 mSv/yr average. The mental stress of worrying/moving over radiation is far worse for you.

  • lol, i'm not terribly worried.. just concerned about any existing damage, and the damage the fucking media is causing.

  • @ashadds broadminded is what got us into this mess. Why don't you volunteer your life and go fix the mess, so that the food won't get more severely contaminated, so the 10's of thousands of people might not be "homeless", so that the animals musn't be stuck alone in the fallout, and so the rest of the world doesn't need to worry that the situation may get worse, and possibly get the fallout on their heads. We don't need to be blunt with kids, but truthful.

  • @w9isv your comment is accurate but your thinking tenuous..be broadminded about this catastrophy..even though i criticize the human errors which have caused this catastrophy..we need to move on,and for kids not men this video is accurate

  • Sorry, but I cannot laugh at a video that makes the incident in Fukushima look like an "innocent" and "practically harmless" and/or FUNNY situation. It is very misleading, as EVERY nuclear disaster is nearly the worse thing that can happen ANYWHERE. Even if this video is meant in a HARMLESS way, it supports the goals of the Government and TEPCO to erase the incident in people's minds by making it seem OK. We cannot SEEEEE radioactivity, and the sickness it causes comes years later.

  • @motionwindmedia Tsunami was worse than Fukushima incident!

  • @motionwindmedia This is directed at children. It's not supposed to show deformation and death.

  • @AETrainingDavid97 No this is directed at brainwashing...

  • @analyzingfunny I leave you in peace now, so that you can go watch Jesse Ventura and wear a tin foil hat, k?

  • @AETrainingDavid97 Sure, we can go on all night with insults, but the truth is out. The water in Tokyo is poison. you cannot drink it, or bath in it. And what does you thanking the Russians for saving your ass have to do with tin foil hats?

  • nuclear poop is serious and it can kill you

  • the problem is that the reactor is not a cute little child but a highly dangerous plant constructed by men. The video tries to arouse sympathy for something that actually should be deactivated, not healed.

  • fukushima is not chernobyl, it is much better, japaneese specialists are the best, not like silly russians . I knew it. thanks japan for this beautiful cartoon with explanation.

  • @goodspeedy666 Now japaneese can drink the cleanest water and eat yummi food with great pleasure because fukushima is not chernobyl !!!

  • @goodspeedy666 Chernobyl is in Ukraine, dimwit.

  • Looks like this think just sharted all over North America.

  • "-It goes away soon!" in 1:35.

    he said "It goes away in about one week" in Japanese.

    Many of Japanese believe that the iodine disappears in one week because TV repeat it. We do not know Chernobyl in detail, even Tokaimura JCO nuclear accident in 1999.

    The radioactivity doesn't disappear in one week.

    The half-life of iodine129 is 15.7 million years.

    I fear because this video have been translated by many words all over the world.

  • @masanamasana I only read about trace levels of iodine-131, cesium-131, and cesium-134, as are currently falling out in China. Dunno what's washing out of the reactor buildings, though.

  • @masanamasana I only read about trace levels of iodine-131, cesium-137, and cesium-134, as are currently falling out in China. Dunno what's washing out of the reactor buildings, though.

  • @masanamasana

    TV explains that iodine-131 has a half-life of about 8 days (which means only half of it goes away in 8 days, by the way, but well, he simplifies it for children).

    The half-life of iodine 129 is important only if there are high enough concentration of the stuff in the air, soil, water. It doesn't seem to be the case. Cesium-137 with its half-life of about 30 years is more of a worry right now.

  • This video reminds me of propaganda cartoon in WWII.

  • Sorry, but his diaper has a hole in it now.

  • i would love to go to japan give my time in person. but the the most i can do is give what i can in the way of money .

    ps. i really REALLY would love to visit japan before anything serious happens

  • Thats not medicine thats poison they'r trying to kill reactor boy!

  • I love the bit where they show little Chernobyl and that he pooped everywhere and was running around at the time. All this stuff can be scary to small children. This is the best way to explain in a way they'll understand. I know radioactive Cesium/Iodine and farts are very different, but they're both unpleasant and that is the point. Clever!

  • Even the Children are being fed propaganda by the government during this nuclear disaster of epic proportions. Nuclear fallout is no fart that goes away in 7 days. The Japanese government and Tepco should be blamed for all the future deaths and illnesses that will result from their refusal to admit the immense danger to the people still close to the reactor.

  • this is very strange....but to help Japan....I gave to the American Red Cross who are there and the Kansai Animal Refuge.

  • @greta763 best comment so far! ^^

  • @greta763 oh yah? you gave to the Red Cross? Only 10% of your money went to help anybody.

  • excellent explanation! hope all finishes well...

  • lo quiero en español D:

  • @KanamiYuuta /watch?v=gZRggl5vAiw

  • Comment removed

  • salute to the 50 Fukushima heroes...

  • At least Japan does have some hemp farmers and laws that will allow them to get started on hemp phytoremediation as soon as possible. If an American nuclear reactor melted down we'd have to go through all the politics and argument and legislation necessary to repeal a federal prohibition of industrial hemp as a Schedule I drug before we could plant the first non-drug hemp plants to begin saving the land. - Russ Belville

  • The only way to prepare for a disaster like this is to learn the truth of life. Search "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then open The Present and read what it says. It will turn this world right-side up if it reaches enough people.

  • Little? Chernobyle wasnt little.

  • So... will donating toilet paper solve the problem?

  • poor Nuclear Reactor Boy. pooping is fun!

  • So that's what they mean by "deep doodoo."

  • oh.

    now I get it.

  • This is awesome.

  • It's time to get rid of those stinky boys!

  • this video makes me never want to poop again

  • Wouldnt it just be easier to explain whats actually happening? Our education is so fucked!!!

  • @ChaDMcBaDD It's hard to explain nuclear reactors to most adults, why do you think it would be easier for kids?

  • @Slayerlx every normal healthy human should be able to comprehend it. By your logic, we should just keep everybody stupid and explain things to them in hurr durr fashion. I dont think its a good idea.

  • I'm an american in the military for more than twenty years now, to think I've been going to war protecting assholes like you since the early nineties.

  • if this is to help people learn i think we all became a bit more dumb by watching it. 

  • After listening to most of you I'm convinced that most americans are dumb assholes, I'm american and I'm saying this. I live in Japan about two hundred miles south of Fukushima and Im not worried, why because there is nothing to worry about, they are not drinking vodka and running away so don't compare it to chernobyl. Listen to the experts all you want on CNN then just go punch yourself in the face dumbass.

  • @tomykawamata You are a big mouthed asshole too bad you're in Japan representing America. Hopefully another America hears your traitorous remarks and puts you your place you undignified shit bag.

  • @lenin1928 I'm American, and I'm trying to see how is remark is traitorous to America. If anything, he is degrading the people that worked on Chernobyl. From what I've gotten from his comment he's saying that foreigners shouldn't create a big hype since we've actually learned something and the workers there are trying their best to not make this a disaster (even willing to sacrifice themselves).

    If you've seen videos during the Chernobyl incident, you would know where he is coming from.

  • @PattehPatrick So because he lives in Japan it makes him exclusive to the tsunami disaster? Or can only Japanese comment on the disaster? Foreigners lol what a load of shit.

  • @lenin1928 Except he never claimed to be exclusive to the matter. And the matter isn't about foreigners "giving a damn" but about them "blowing it out of proportion", two completely different things. If you're interested in this situation, go and find out some more information, from as many and as reputable sources as possible, until you feel yourself completely free from doubt! Or you can blindly trust a source of information, that is screaming its opinions at you inbetween drug commercials. :D

  • @lenin1928 I never mentioned that only people living in Japan should exclusively be the only people commenting on the disaster. I'm just saying that people shouldn't make the possibility of the nuclear meltdown such a big hype. They're already trying to get electricity to the plants to cool the spent-fuel rods and the reactors. If anything, worry about the people in need and the people working there because the job is getting done.

  • @tomykawamata I'll quote someone here. We were at an energy efficient house, and the tour guide was explaining renewable energy recourses. One of those was nuclear energy, so of course we began talking about Japan. He gave an excellent line: "If you really think it's nothing, why don't you go and stand right next to it?"

  • @tomykawamata I wrote, The Chernobyl Papers, and I can tell you that this is 10 times worse than Chernobyl, times four reactors. The Russians saved your ass from radiation. 15,000 men died picking up radioactive debris. 650,000 died to build the containment. 400 helicopter pilots to put out the fire.

    Seriously, if you want to downplay this, and think that plutonium is "as safe as aspirin" then please go there, and start shoveling, mutherfucker! Then die, because we dont need your genes here.

  • @TheSBDroid2 You don't know how charity works, do you? Or how to look up one? Or anything like that? Why don't you fly to Japan RIGHT NOW and hand someone cash. Geeze. SMH.

  • @dubhtail Before you question my morals i'd like to say that my father has a colleague from there who lost his home. He and his co-workers used something called money transfer to help him out. You see? That wasn't so hard. Then there's the fact that you are deluded, because the money YOU donate have no guarantee they'll reach anyone. Grow up kid.

  • @TheSBDroid2 Your Daddy donated. You are still ignorant, kid. Educate yourself, please.

  • but its still dangerous D:

  • it's so funny hoho

  • They had a German Physicist on CNN International who said they can't cool the SPF at Daiichi, and that they also can't 'Sarcophagus' it, because it will crack the dome continuously, given the heat. He said the concrete at Chernobyl is cracking all the time due to the heat 25 year later.

    So, he concluded that the Japanese have a real technical dilemna on their hands, because there's no playbook for this.

    Oh, he also confirmed that there's a shitload of fuel there, too.

  • We have Physicists weeping in public and calling for prayer.

    This means it is a runaway clusterfuck, and there ain't no good news coming, imo.

  • why is it that this is the most sense ANY japanese cartoon has ever made to me?

  • the part about chernobyl was just pure gold XD

  • Remember that Japan has HIROSHIMA and NAGASAKI. All Japanese well know about nuclear power and radiation rather than people in other countries. But at this time, most of them cannot do anything except for watching and waiting. Of course, they are worrying a lot and concerning for the others even outside of Japan. I think they are just trying to keep smiling without crying. Pray for JAPAN!!

  • As bad as patronizing US propoganda cartoons used in the 50s. Comparin' the question of, ''how bad is radiation for you'', with ''how high is up?''

    Radioactive material is not cute. Poison dug up from the earth, shoulda left it alone. Humans are a near-sighted bunch, never think of tomorrow.

    We bury poisonous radioactive materials in the land and at sea in concrete. Outta sight outta mind. Don't care 'bout the planet we're on,

    Who cleans up when we go?

    WE WILL NOT LIVE FOREVER

  • @Rihia2k That's kinda the point. If your life span is another seventy years, then do you really care if something comes out in 200 years? You won't be around to worry about it, so it doesn't matter.

  • I want to see the video where they cover nuclear reactor boy in sand and concrete for the next 100,000 years because he pooped.

  • I know the video may be silly at times, but I seriously almost broke down in tears when I remembered that this is for children and they have to understand this accident. I feel so bad for the Japanese people.

  • @Goethewrote sources or gtfo.

  • @Goethewrote What gets me is people continuously spew things like this in a tone that seems to imply their governments are any less dishonest. What about shit like MK-Ultra where the CIA was LITERALLY drugging innocent civilians in an attempt to control their minds?

    Those "motherfuckers" didn't do that to themselves. The people of Fukushima had nothing to do with the accident, even if their government is deceptive.

  • @Goethewrote Also, before you pump your fist in victory at how you trolled me so super hard, I was actually directing that at all the morons who actually think the way you're pretending to think. Unless of course you actually DO think that way, in which case I'll go ahead and suggest that you give yourself a lobotomy using rusty nails.

  • Pretty funny, but I don't know if that's really the best analogy. I mean, real poop just *has* to come out at some point…

  • I hope all you idiots taking potassium iodide all die from it. Idiots. Nothing is gonna happen.

  • Well done. Excellent Translation!

  • 0:11

    He's trying to take a poop that won't come out...

  • May this can soothe the fear among people about the nuclear radiation, coz government of Japan with the help from other countries are indeed struggling hard to prevent the nuclear radiation get worse.

  • god save Japan : U have a great idea even in bad situation U r the best i am respect u.

  • Nice metaphor. Japanese got shit all over them with this accident.

  • @Norwegian1 - hey, im sorry to burst your bubble, but not all people wear smarty pants like you. this video was made for people less smarter than you are, so they would understand what happened to the nuclear reactor. if you are too smart for this, why dont you go to Japan and help them out personally. maybe you could do something better for them instead of ranting over this youtube video. maybe you could offer them your smarty pants, so the nuclear reactor boy doesnt look silly in that diaper.

  • @putikmanako hahaha you speak out what i wanna say to him!! way to go!

  • @Norwegian1 It's made for CHILDREN dumbass. And if you're such the nuclear power expert, why don't you come over to Japan and cool down the reactors? Or are you just another armchair engineer thousands of miles away pretending he knows what he's talking about?

  • @sporktacular Pay my way and accommodations and I will.....

  • @Norwegian1 yeah, because every child in japan are experts when it comes to nuclear reactors. [sarcasm]this video is insulting their intelligence.[/sarcasm] if you think you can explain this better to little kids then you better start making a video.

  • @Norwegian1 lol du blev ägd. hur kan du kalla dig nörrman? HAHAHAHAHAHA

  • クソワロタwwww

  • мда

  • Japan. Producing 78% of the worlds weird shit. Since 1952.

  • Radiation is like a fart, only this fart is a silent and deadly one... Way to downplay this serious situation...

  • Just to make things clear, are they using the "poop" as nuclear waste and the "diarrhea" as a nuclear meltdown?

  • виабушники соснули

  • I hear the sequel is going to be 'Reactor Boy vs Meltdown Man', brought to us by the Japanese Government and Tokyo Power. Hopefully they'll pull the funding before it's completed.

  • Ok..Ok...poop..boop...maybe is it so funny showed it is not so scare look`s.

    But after years your doctor will tell you what is really scare look`s.

    I am from Ukraine, you can believe me

  • @MrPortt its not helping man. they are trying to smile. im sorry what happend in your country, but that doesnt mean you should make others down.

  • ay ta! bien explicadito :)

  • This is brilliantly done. It's good to see people are in decent enough spirits to think positive.

  • SOMEONE GIVE HIM A LAXATIVE FOR FUCK SAKES

  • This shows that the japanese people are not in panic about the nuclear incident compared to how foreign media is making it out to be.

  • Ya, that's my impression. I got a lot of email from my friends out side from Japan. It looked they are more shocked and in panic. So I had to spend some time to make them calmed-down and understood what the reality is.

  • ppppppffffffffffffffffffffffff­ffffffffffffffff xDDDD

  • @MirrorWink EPIC! T0T

  • I pinched a loaf so I could watch this whole thing.

  • "Chernobyl pooped all over and it was diarrhea and he weas running when it happened" - I loled.

  • Shit man I'm POOPED! LOL! ; )

  • This is obscenely funny and depressing, both at the same time.

  • @CTrace The person who made the video is Kazuhiko Hachiya, an artist and designer who lives in Shibuya, Tokyo. Look him up on twitter or google him, or look up his company petworks. Looks like he just did this on his own.

  • 日本人永遠都是最優秀的民族,來生要做日本人

  • @u0ykcufelbaci :小心点,别误入AV~

  • even with such a disaster, let's still keep our cool and calm. Those doomsayers, so called experts, are just scare-mongers. I really feel sorry for those Americans who bought large quantity of radiation pills and those Chinese who stockpiled large quantity of salt and, yest, even seaweeds. There is a unlimited supply of human stupidity.

  • @001zening Written by an idiot thousands of miles away from the meltdown site.

  • @Goethewrote I'm ~150 miles from the meltdown site and I feel the same way. You should calm down a bit.

  • @Goethewrote: don't assume you know everything and especially when yourself has a double-digit IQ. In fact, I am living less than 500 miles from Tokyo, in China. Ever heard the thing called VPN? you fart?!

  • They'd better closely monitor the number 2 reactor.

  • CHERNOBYL HAS DIARRHEA!!!

  • @Goethewrote Because you can't understand it.

  • @Goethewrote

    But that isn't the truth. Different reactor type, different safety measures, different rescue mentality.

  • Pretty much demonstrates why Japan is awesome.

  • Explaining things with poo... How very Japanese. :)

    Nuclear Reactor Boy, get well soon.

  • Salute the workers!

  • Some of the comments on the Japanese version of this video are from parents who say they regret showing it to their children because now the kids don't want to poop.

  • @radialaxis - Makes sense, unfortunately. It's like telling kids that people who die are sleeping. We may think it makes death more palatable, but it can make kids afraid of falling asleep.

  • @radialaxis I wonder what was the point of showing this - whatsoever - serious video to children?

  • I've lost all faith in mankind (for the 23rd time today) after seeing 9 people disliked this video.

  • As others have noted--the scary thing is, this is probably the most informative video we've seen yet re the nuke issues in Japan :D

    And ganbatte! to the workers, definitely. :D

  • Thank you very much for translating this. It's a great analogy that can help everyone understand the basic ideas. I like that it helps allay the overreactions and fears of uncertainty. At least it didn't sugar-coat the fact that there can indeed still be bad effects. I'm glad it acknowledged that soberly.

    Here's hoping for the best. To the workers bravely trying so hard, ganbatte!

  • no, i think this is good but i think the news is more informative... but, LOL!

  • Even I know how dangerous it is to shit in publicity.

    I totally understand you Nuclear reactor boy. ;_;

  • Everything can and should be explained with poop and farts.

  • This is the most disturbing yet informative thing I have ever seen. XD

  • I just faved a vid about nuclear poop... Wow xD

  • This is amazing :D rofl

  • I like it. Thanx GOD there is a good information...

  • Your translation was really well done, don't be so hard on yourself.

  • Good luck japan. Everyone at the Hanford Reach feels for you.

  • Is there an English dubbed version of this?

  • @mel1shi Why would you need it? =/

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I LOVE THIS!

  • This is probably the only news relating to the nuclear reactors that I've sat through and everybody should see it.

  • considering they got hit with worst earthquake in recorded history AND a tsunami that would do a disaster movie proud. that this is the worst thing to come of it is fairly impressive.

  • Great job. Thank you for this.

  • @SvrchovaneCechy I can't begin to describe how wrong this post is. Would take a 3-volume novel to do so.

  • @Ausdoerrt Tell me next week how wrong I was with my observation.

  • @SvrchovaneCechy Stfu. Situation COULD be critical, unlike you japanese people mainly live in the present...

  • @MurdocLC World will see next week how good Japanese really are, kid. So far we hear only lies about nuclear disaster from your government.

  • @SvrchovaneCechy Just like how coal is clean and how pure and cancerfree the Gulf of Mexico is right?

  • @SvrchovaneCechy Wtf? The more time that passes the more we see how brilliant Japan is. Nobody or no country is perfect... but you're an ass! I won't feed this troll anymore, case closed... baka.

  • Comment removed

  • Well, we can't breathe a sigh of relief just yet (in horror movies, thats when the monster does his most gruesome kill) But, things are moving ahead. A constant approach to this problem may help the tummyache. At least, thats what I got from watching this.

  • this is one of those things where you learn something but walk away from saying ...what the fuck did i just watch?
