  • "Kids are being forced to go the school without wearing shi"?? They are not forced. Parents want them to be stronger against diseases. This series of documentary is very bad and does not represent our country rightly.

  • that is correct. but probably they were talking about osaka being the second biggest metropolitain area. with yokohama belonging to greater tokyo (or however it is called) megalopolis.

  • @mrjamesthegreatable When the documentary was made Japan was the 2nd largest economy, In 2010 was surpassed by China, leaving Japan the third place...

  • @GothicWiccan13 The point was that all this construction is unneeded and ultimately bad for the country..

  • Asian people like to show face.. that's the problem. It can be a good or bad mentality

  • The 8 people that disliked this work Japanese construction.

  • 8 hours of sleep is great!

  • @kusakabemanai yeah! i read that 30% of japanese are suffereing from hayfever, why? because they are seriously too clean.

  • @mrjamesthegreatable This was made in 2001.

  • Seriously. This series really doesnt do well to show Japanese society or culture. There are broader cultural reasons for the temporary employment they talk about. Journeyman has a really bad way of supporting a narrative with hollow statements.

  • japan is 3rd biggest in economy....!

  • @GothicWiccan13 You do realize the difference between "the public" and "public works", right?
