There are western asians, as in asian people who live in western countries. Your comment should be that in countries like Japan, manners and schooling are held at a very high cultural standard, while in other nations it is based on the individual families. I know plenty of nasty "asian" people, as well as any other race or creed here in the States. You can't label an entire race, that's racist.
there was a vending machine that has no door, when I was a pupil (of an elementary school ) . my classmate stole some soft drinks from the door of the vending machine and I stole a glance at the wrong.
@ndgh209 We have convenience stores every block, giant super stores that are cheap as hell, and phones that can talk to us! Life gets so convenient here I'm positive any country would say "why are they bitching about their vending machines?!" Life has to be a pain in the ass in some small form>XD
Love japan but we have better vending machines here in my country :D Our machines have robotic hands that grab what you choosed and pass it to you through a opening so you dont even have to bent.
@1ukjunglednbraver Nah it's not pointless the point of it is to make it easy to take your drink out of the machine. Don't know if you have ever used a vending machine before but sometimes its hard to take your drink because the door gets in your way.
i am not going to lie it would be cute to see a Japanese girl in a short skirt bent over struggling to grab something out of the vending machines haha I think that's the first bad comment I have ever left
@LeafySuburb the US is a bit too big for it (vending machines) to be as concentrated as it is in Japan and also the population isn't as densely pact as it is in Japan.
They have different machines where I am, its like a conveyor belt goes to the row and drops it in a vertical slot. Superior to this but this is nice :)
@mrkillswitch17 Nope never happen in 50 yrs or even 100 yrs..America is way to busy trying to rule the entire planet..inventing one of these vending machines is not on there things to do list!..(nice thought thow)
@Midnightryder7 hell, even central american countries which is supposedly "poor" to the U.S. has better machines and electronics, some you wouldn't have even thought of. its sad knowing even the poorest countries are elevating to better technology and politic reasoning.
@Midnightryder7 My college has some pretty nice vending machines... they don't even drop at the bottom, they pop out of their little spot, slide to the side, an elevator takes them up or down, and they slide into a door that is at about waist level.
I think this is kind of stupid. If you suck so much that you hurt yourself when getting something out of a vending machine, you may want to take a long look at yourself...
It'd be even more brilliant if the system was mechanical in stead of electronic. Like, if the drink pushed something that opens the door and when you take it out it slowly closes due to pistons slowing the closing motion (so you won't get caught).
But having seen a lot of these video's, it's not surprising that Japan fixed this with electronics :p Nor would I be surprised if the machine talked :p
@iceteaz Generally when you're buying a drink, you'll take it out as soon as it drops down. :P
It has a pretty long delay as you can see from the video, and it probably has a system where it opens back up when it meets 'resistance' (aka a hand) while closing.
It is odd that you dont see convenient bottoms to machines anywhere I live. I mean maybe some fancy machines somewhere, but not at common places.
There are plenty without doors at all, but they have small containers at the bottom which could be made bigger like the one in this picture, and the ones with doors are annoying. Just got a soda yesterday with the doorless but less friendly slot.
Something else that annoys me, america supposedly has more vending machines, but far less variety.
Hmmm... but it could launch the bottle directally into your hand while also opening it and through the magical science of Japan not a drop would spill. Or am I being stupid? hmmmm...
It absolutely blows me away how much cool stuff you discover in Japan that I've never seen before and I even live here just like you. Great work JapanChannel...
Geez, if I ever get too lazy to push a plastic flap out of the way to get my drink or snack, then someone, PLEASE, just shoot me on the spot! *I* am a pretty damn lazy guy I must admit, but this is one of those things that makes me wonder what our species will be like in 100 years or so...
@SirReptitious actually tis is quite useful i have got my hands stuck before. if u say that then why have a machine selling drinks in the first place anyway.
@SirReptitious I'm not lazy, but I still find the usual machine style very annoying, at least in my country. I always get my hand stuck in there because the flap thing is so stiff and heavy.
@VintageSH, ive seen vending machines in the usa with plastic windows, besides as history has shown, even metal boxes to hold money (called banks) are high profile targets. at the end of the day, fire is the greatest weapon in a thief's tool kit (besides knowledge and common sense)
sigh.... wonder why Canada doesn't have it, opse nvm cause our government follow America. Sigh, and they won't do it cause the citizen will just steal the vending machine itself. LOL sad but true
