they do definatly taste like what they are, but never get muscat!!!! i got some from a competition.... i nearly threw up just opening it up, it was so freaking potent
if you live in richmond, va, they sell the candy at the tan-a on broad and horsepen. also, koichiben is totally in japanese, which is probably why people who want to learn japanese go to tofugu instead. just fyi. love your channel!
I love those things. They sell them at an Asian import store near my house. They have apple, strawberry, pineapple, melon, grape. They are sooooo addicting and full of flavor.
O00hh they're good?i see them @ this store everytime i go..hopefully they're still there..i wanna try some since ..the dude in the video says its good!!
wohooo!!aiihh i hope i wont have trouble finding them!
Dude, there was this phase I went through about *2 months ago* (probably) that involved my being completely locked up in a room and laying in bed for HOURS only getting up to pee eat poop (ewwy) or shower. Then when I got over that, people started talking about "Twitter" and I just thought "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?" it was everywhere. And I was completely clueless.
I think that the reason ppl are not subscribing to koichiben is that it is in JAPANESE!!! So it must be that the vast majority of ppl who watch youtube DON'T SPEAK FLUENT JAPANESE!!! yeesh! (knucklehead!) :p
We have those at my grocery store! ^_^ sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good u have no idea. *drools*
naah, pocky isnt that great. I got it in vancouver and it was pretty good, but gumi sounds better. I bet you could get gumi in vancouver. There's a lot of japanese stuff there. Very easy to find good resturants :D
I saw this candy in the mall. About couple months ago. I wanted to get my friend to buy it. But he wouldn't he likes the japanese candy thats a chocolate stick I forget what it's called is it as good as the sticks?
I wonder where i can get those O_O And whyyyy not eat the real thing? cuz its more fun. Just like asking "Why do you want a doll, just get a real baby!" O____o' Easy for you to say, britney spears wannabe... *glares* Ahhaaaa...*Anime sweatdrop* So yeah. Get my point random health freaks? XD
Ha, ha! I watched this video, then i went to my local oriental market and i saw those candies there! i bought the lychee one, and i was surprised that i already had a bunch of these before! so good! :D
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wow....i know so much more japanese candy than you do xDDDDD taht are BETTER...but whatever. oh and also don't take more htan half the video talking about some other channel. CUZ WE DON"T CARE.
I can get that from Mitsuwa or other Asian chain stores asides from Japanese like Korean, Chinese, Filipino stores. xP Or just liek~ Torrance in general.
Let me remind you of something:there are more english speakers than japanese,that is why tofugu has more suscribers. Kumenasai,Koichisan,but that is the truth.
I like Koichiben too! And he is Witty!! Funny... sometimes.. sometimes just plain weird.. I like his voice and glasses the most tho >_>...*I guess someone might wonder why I didn't type love* I tend not to use the 愛 word alot as it tends to be more for um intimate ppl... anyways damn that candy looks good...Mango >_> omg! and as for the "New York" accent... nvm not gonna say anything bout that lol.がんばって恋知三(へ_へ
Yes, the server is just down for a bit. If you'd like to get updates letting you know about certain technical difficulties you should subscribe to tofugu's twitter. The link is in the video description.
Oh Hey I've had those candy before, I popped in a DVD sat down with the candy and before I knew it they had vanished into the deepest pits of my tummy.
(They are very yummy is the point of that short story)
The Pineapple tastes like a pineapple! The Snozzberry tastes like a snozzberry!
Well, this Twitter thing does sound a bit odd, but since you're luring me in with candy, I guess I have no choice...wow, I never would have guessed that actually works...
i love your videos! your hilarious! and for those of us preparing to do foreign exchange in japan they help so so much! you have no idea how much tofugu has helped me learn my katakana and hiragana, and -hopefully someday- kanji! i know i don't even know you but I LOVE YOU!
ummm socially uncomfortable? hummm maybe just a lil lol pimping out the Koichiben lol so sad the Japanese in you just wont except defeat lol or that we just ROCK! oh well I'm subscribed to both so I can work on my understanding of the language Haha! omg that candy is awesome ! but the pockey is better he's holding out on us!
