Look, you don't have to make any commitment to me, but you really should examine your reaction to me in private. I understand that you don't want to concede because you feel like that would be "losing", and you've already lost enough in life that any small perceived loss drives you up the wall. You think that changing because somebody else suggested so is submissive behavior. I can assure you this is not true. This is not a competition and I am not challenging you to a mental duel or whatever. I will never encounter you again, so I can't ever pull a "told you so" that would hurt your ego. I may as well be a voice in your head.
Ask yourself what being neurotic does for you and how it benefits you. Don't choose to live a miserable life. I've seen where it leads, and nobody deserves to suffer that way.

I'd be with you if it wasn't for the absolute massive, and I mean massive amounts of fucktards with JLPT show boating it off in Japan only to not understand how to order a bowl of pork ramen.
What's worse is that most JLPT people who brag about it often have no self-awareness or social skills to make it mean jack fucking shit. Cool you can explain you like video games, anime, and never been outside Tokyo? Wow you're really hitting it out of the park there champ!
I've had too many run in's with people in Japan who are N3 or higher and can't fucking figure out how to use a ticket system at a ramen shop, ask for a figure in a glass cabinet, or understand basic social environments far more than I have dealt with people who know some basic core japanese terms with social skills to fill in the gaps. Biggest red flag to me when meeting with an anon or someone will boast their level because some test told them so, which generally means "please speak to me as a 3rd grader".

Honestly, for a lot of expats, the better you are at the language, the less important your job is.
>the general dislike as a foreigner living and working in japan is universal
No, if you stay there you'll find it only faggy anglos, and the people who associate with them, who can't keep their incredibly whiny mouths shut.
It's people who can't deal with a life that involves having to learn new cultural shit, not being coddled by the government and find it beyond the pale to deal with minor bureacratic quibbles when renting property as a foreigner.
Fuck 'em.
its because he just kind of "ended up" in japan like 10 years ago he didn't flock there in awe like everyone else
he was a teacher and just hung around i guess

>he really doesn't seem to like the place
That just proves that he's been living in Japan for a long time. Most foreigners who stay around inevitably end up like that.

True. >Most foreigners who stay around inevitably end up like that.
False, it's mostly the foreigners stuck in expat circles who end up like that, no matter if Japan, Norway or Panama.
Ask any depressed long-term foreign resident about their social circles and you will see it over and over.

I wouldn't say its universal. I didn't come here until my late 30s and I love it here, been here for 8 years. But I have the experience of being a working professional in several places prior to coming here, which is something that most expats lack. A lot of expats blame the country for what are essentially their own shortcomings. Japan isn't perfect, nowhere is, but if you can't appreciate the positives of living here then you'll be miserable.

I speak shit Japanese and I don't think it has hindered me much. N3 with years of living here is going to be fine for most people. Once you understand the flow of most conversations you can get by fine in 95% of the situations you'll be in.

Almost as if someone who lives in a place for that long wouldn't have a routine set up like any other place in the world. Japan has a few reasonably convenient pros but at the end of the day you're just on earth doing earthly activities.

>Speaking basic japanese to a waitress
What did you expect ? An essay ?
The circlejerk he is complaining about is precisely what is happening in this very thread,and is due to retards thinking that being good enough at a language (which most people mean by the term "fluent" as opposed to bilingual, which some of you fuckers seem to conflate on purpose) is not enough and that you should speak perfect japanese to even pretend to understand what life in japan is.
First, nobody who goes in an expat/tourist vlog gives a flying fuck about a local's life. Japan and East Asia (and most of the world in general) in general allow for very limited integration which only concerns a small percentage of foreigners who bother with learning the language.
Truth is, very few people are true bilinguals that didn't study the language in academic fashion. Most japanese speakers have a b2-b1 level at best. This is what most anglos reach after living for decades in Europe and that's perfectly fine for work and colleagues and even friends.
I first went to Taiwan as an r&d engineer then moved to Tokyo once i got a JLPT N3 and never fucking bothered with that exam anymore, and have spoken with my shitty ass broken japanese at work and it didnt prevent me from getting raises and promotions. If your only marketable skill is speaking the local language then no wonder you goofy fuck have to signal to everyone that you need to have presidential translator levels of fluency. Broad has a well paying job and a couple of good friends. The fuck else do you need ?
>but he really doesn't seem to like the place
part of it is his dry british "humour"
the other part of it is that yes, everyone that stays there long enough becomes jaded and starts to hate the place, but usually by the time it happens they get stuck there (marriage, or cant get a job back home) and cant leave

Most people don't hate on Japan and neither does Chris. They complain, because they've been in the country for so long they're starting to notice the cracks. But ultimately, it'll always be better than being back home.
I live on Taiwan and a guy once complained about how a guy was being rude to him in a waiting line in a night market. Dude started to make sweeping generalizations and bitched until i pointed out that shit like this in a similar setting back home 11pm out in the streets in a relatively lower class neighborhood, that shit could've been way worse.
Most of the fucking complaints people have are trouble in paradise type shit which i suspect to be a symptom of homesickness. You put these fuckers back home for a month and they get miraculously cured of any complaints they have.
thanks.
I figured that it was lbh syndrome or Ryan boundless level doomerism.
I don't think it's a paradise, I just want to live in a somewhat reasonable small area (outside one of the major cities but not Tokyo) where people are at least somewhat amicable and I can go to work with people who don't slack off/whine all fucking day.
Maybe I'm a little too optimistic about that last part, but IDK. If I end up teaching English for two years and returning to the states I won't complain, at least it's a change of scenery.
this, hate how often I see the “IF YOU DONT LIKE IT HERE THEN GET OUT” mentality on these boards. Natives will be the first to relentlessly shit on their home country, nowhere is perfect and trying to act like it is is way more cringe than acknowledging where you live has problems but could ultimately be much worse
This was me >Constantly complain about China and why don't the locals do x like in Canada >Return home >Deal with Canadian bureaucracy, deal with retarded Canuck locals, retarded rules/laws that make no sense, terrible weather, unfriendly people who just think about money, government employees with no common sense, the absolute boredom of how everything closes at 6pm, retarded culture where people religiously watch sports, dealing with Canadian banks, the prices of everything, how the Canadian food I loved was really just nostalgia, the uselessness/fear of Canuck cops, etc. >Return to China >Keep my mouth shut and never mention Canada ever again
It only seems nice once you’ve done the rat race and had a mediocre British life. If you’ve not, then you’re just going to wonder about the exceptional British life you imagine you threw away because you became a professional tourist in an Asian country that you can never really feel at home in.
>SerpenZA is a mythomaniac on US gov payroll. >He still claims to this day that he was teaching to chinese physicians and surgeons
Nah, i'd believe that about the american guy he hangs with who is clearly quite butthurt about most things chinese but the saffer just reflexively couches his words to make himself seem better without actually lying. If he's just talking about it generally he'll say he "taught physicians and surgeons" omitting the rest but when he tells stories from that time he will specify that he taught them english. Same way he speaks about his "doctor" wife and how he wears that suit all the time because of how people react.
You can also tell he's way more temperate about judging the chinese for their views or taking weibo stuff at face value compared to the other dude as well.
You will realize that most of the anti-China shills can't speak Chinese worth shit. Which means they don't know anything about China, even in Shanghai the level of English is abysmally bad so how did they speak to anyone?
Anyone know this feel >use to watch AnJ when he was still a teacher >different than most of the other youtubers doing shit about Japan so listen more intently >finally go to Japan >realize his food opinions are dogshit >realize his 'observations' are surface level and 'so broad it can't technically be wrong' they end up being essentially meaningless to anyone >use his advice on some of the 'common mistakes to make in japan' style videos, realize I stick out more than normal and should just go back to playing it by ear
I don't hate him because he is easy to throw his video at someone asking stupid ass questions or someone who "is going to japan soon...just not this year bro". Though taking his advice outside of anything that isn't for plebbit japan subforums is pointless.
actually this
for me i was already in japan for a few years when he first started making videos
i thought about making my own Japan travel channel but it was the early days of youtube where you couldnt make money or a career from YT unless you made shit like Epic Meal Time

>travels with chris >decent companion and genuine reactions >travels with any of the trash taste guys >becomes increasingly insufferable >any of his gaming streams >goes full retard
I like Chris but this guy is insufferable.
He's not only annoying, but he's also really stupid and talentless, so he has no worthwhile insight or wisdom to share.
Stupid people are neither interesting nor funny, so what's the attraction of this guy's videos?
I know Chris isn't a genius and he has a lot of reddit-tier opinions, but his videos have a pretty high production quality compared to most other people and he was one of the first "J-vloggers".
Connor and that cringe gay Garnt are both annoying retards.
Yeah not a big fan of the trash taste crew tbh, they're all pretty idiotic manchildren, Chris is alright though and Pete the over enthusiastic American is pretty cool too.
Yeah I don't really get it either, I think their Japan talk is interesting but they have really awful fucking views on things that makes it surprising they can even live there and say they like anime considering how much shit they find problematic
Some Japanese think because they Amaterasu's chosen people that they don't get STDs, or that by watching Disney movies you should fit some prince in shining armor stereotype. There worldview is just as bafflingly sheltered as anons here on sighsee. As a result they constantly ask the fucking stupidest shit and are cannot think for themselves. I got serious decision fatigue with a Japanese chick because she expected for me to make every decision and tell her what to do day in and day out. An obedient chick sounds nice, but in reality God damn think for yourself, read a book or something and have a fucking opinion. Anyway, despite better judgment I got Married to a japanese woman, who went to university abroad, so she is wonderfully self sufficient and we can actually be a cohesive relationship.
TLDR, Japanese women are awesome for a casual relationship, long term though is mostly just shit. I don't blame Chris for going back to western women.

I unironically enjoy it. Not everyone is blessed like me
He used to have a Japanese gf years ago and she appears in a few of his videos. She genuinely came across as lorena bobbit style crazy and after breaking up he said in a video about dating Japanese girls that theyre very different from western girls and implied that most are just interested in having an exotic foreign trophy boyfriend for a little while and not an actual relationship.
I muamst have hit the jackpot then.
I'm living in Japan with my Japanese wife. We've been together for 10 years now.
Was coming here to comment on him failing to get a Japanese wife and instead marrying some fat Westoid.
Was some old online meeting place called Japan Guide. It had a penpal like section. So started as penpals for about a year before that. Now though Japan Guide removed the pen pals section because women were just using it to find foreign men.
I mean he’s an chubby average-looking Brit, it’s not like he’s some 10/10 himself
also as someone whose actually been to Japan several times, its not like native girls are falling head over heels with every gaijin they see. It’s not the 1900s, they know what white people look like, and any that are going gaga probably just want a meme “foreign boyfriend” for a few weeks till they got bored & tired of the language / culture barrier
not to mention even if that’s not the case, I can’t imagine how hard the cultural & language barriers are to overcome — speaking broken Japanese to order dinner is one thing, trying to do so in cultivating an intimate longterm relationship is another
it’s not remotely surprising that two mildly atttactive people with a hyperspecific shared circumstance (foreigners in a very different host country) ended up together, if anything with how they act together in their videos I kind of just always assumed they were dating
this
it was different in the 90s and 00s when foreigners were still very uncommon and Japan wasn't a tourist trap, but gaijin are everywhere there now so they're not special.

Jap women are more into korean guys now than anything else
As someone who married into a well to do Japanese family, they fucking crazy, seriously. I would not blame him if he got burnout dating Japanese and wanted a more comforting slampig
>Be YouTuber names AbroadinJapan >Living in Japan since 2012 >Become a huge gaijin vlogger >Annouce you’re getting married >It’s to another gaijin vlogger >She’s 4 years his senior and an average blonde roastie
Got some Jap gov contracts through fag networking. Unpleasant in general and even after 10 years in Japan makes boring superficial videos. Is this really the best English speaking Jap YouTuber? Any suggestions for other channels?
No, 99% of all life in Japan content is absolute dogshit. Most of it is regurgitated and falls into the 2 general subgenres of either "ZOMG Japan tbh!!" or "Let me tell you how Japan REALLY is". The same topics get beaten to death over and over again, unless your looking for some very specific tourist shit.
>Move to Japan >Live there for years >Strikes out with Jap girls even though he is a white British guy which is a big advantage >Blame it on nip girls "only wanting trophy husband's."
Why doesn't he just say he was shit at dating japs and only spent his time at Hubs with gaijin hunters.
You have to actually know Japanese enough for conversations if you want the good Japanese.
If you're just looking to fuck a slut stick to Hubs and some STD infected Jap will let you creampie her as long as you are white and at least semi attractive.
I want to creampie a Jap girl so much but I'm afraid of getting STDs, life is painful.

The whole premise moved to https://penpal.jp/ but there aren't as many jap girls. Probably too shy to make a post and instead reply to men they're interested in.
serpentza is a retarded weeb. he made an anime magazine way back in the day. he's very much so the typical beta white male who tries to act hard and has a cringe asian fetish.
YouTube won't stop trying to shill him to me despite me REPEATEDLY telling them I'm not interested in his content. It's annoying and sus as fuck. Who does YouTube keep try to shill to you guys?
On youtube, I get black youtuber shit all the time. Instagram, it's constantly cosplayer/coomer shit, regardless of how many accounts I block and say I'm not interested.
It took me half a year of clicking "not interested" or "do not recommend channel" to get rid of cdawg recommendations.
I used to think he was just an uninteresting and unfunny dude but all those recommendations have made me hate his guts.
remember when she shilled those scam online crane games hard as fuck? i confronted her about it and she was like "THAT WASNT ME!!!! STOP HARASSING MEEEEE!!!" when it was clearly her giving a tour of the warehouse lmao. typical wh*te woman trash.

connor is married, i'm pretty sure, because when he and chris broad cycled across hokkaido it was to raise funds for some autoimmune disorder charity because he said his wife suffers from some autoimmune disease or something. why do i remember this

Last I saw of him he was real butthurt about girls not wanting him because he's fat, though in reality it's because he has a pretty boring personality. As a friend he'd be fine, but as a lover that's not someone you want to talk to for long hours.
This guy makes completely zero effort to integrate into Japanes society even in the basic way. He's been living in Japan for years as if it was all one big holiday and then he gave up learning Japanese. And he wonders why the only jap women he can get are gaijin hunters with broken english. Honestly yes there are Japanese women who will treat you like a trophy husband/wife if foreign but there are plenty of genuine Jap girls who would date a foreigner if he actually learnt the language and continued to do so.
Working hours I think.
But I don't see why.
My wife in Japan works Monday to Friday 9-6 and makes enough for us to live in a 2 bedroom apartment in Osaka, pay for two mobile phone contacts, WiFi, Netflix, food and still have about 60000 yen left over a month. And she's just on a basic 280000 a month salary. So I will put it down to part working hours part anime/porn
Ironically, he has a couple pronunciation patterns that immediately oust him as an American when he speaks Japanese normally and sometimes even in his scripted speeches.
His Japanese level is incredibly high though, definitely in the top 1% of foreign Japanese speakers to walk the earth.
The way he pronounces English loanwords in Japanese is still a bit too close to the actual (American) English pronunciation.
If he would go full katakana English he'd pass most blind tests.
Yes? like if you’d ever actually watched one of his videos its not like he remotely tries to hide it, pretty much any of the ones where he’s visiting some expensive place he’ll straight out say “thanks to [whatever agency it is] for paying for everything in this video”
that’s the case for all these gaijin Youtubers, not to mention Japan doesn’t consider “Youtuber” a job for residency visas so IIRC most of what these guys do is get employed by an agency who then legally lists them as an “employee” so that they have a job for the residency application
TLDR all of these Youtubers are to some degree, doesn’t mean they’re complete shills. Chris is p open about what he doesn’t like in Japan and shit
no, but he gets paid by individual organizations and businesses obviously
Unironically yes. He has done videos sponsored by japan rail & local Japanese tourism boards. Not all of his vids/its his job, but he is sometimes paid by Japanese tourism organizations

Does he actually speak it well or does he speak it at Serpentza levels? I'm not gunna trust someone who can't even hold a proper conversation with the locals.
>Does he actually speak it well
Yes - considering he has lived there for over ten years and has no issues having interviews with the people in his videos
I've met euros in Thailand who lived here for two decades and they can't speak for god damn shit.
sucks for them I guess
I thought Serpentza had a proficiency level
he can speak fluently retards
he has friends how can pretty much only speak japanese and has lived there for ages
No, he is not fluent at all. He has done live streams with CardawgVA (or whatever his name is) and when he speak to japenese waitresses and stuff, it's very basic.
His other friends, MangaMan and the american meth addict speak way better japanese.
Good for him.
His arguments about people bragging about JLPT levels, translations and idioms would be much more powerful if he actually possessed those skills as well.
His "not a single day of regret" sounds a lot like sour grapes, happening too often in expat circles around the world.
You sound like the type of person he is on about. I just do not understand why Japan attracts these weird try-hard losers who engage in aggressive competitive behavior to compensate.
The sour grapes hit too close to home?
>Japan attracts these weird try-hard losers who engage in aggressive competitive behavior to compensate
Japan attracts autists, news at 7.
They're just relatively more common ever since the bubble popped and normal people don't care about making a career in Japan any more.
You think your comment invoked a reaction from me because it relates to me personally? It did not, and I am stating that so that there is no further presumption.
You're agreeing with what I am saying, yet still felt the need to take a jab at me. Your life has been and will be negatively impacted by your uncontrolled neuroticism. Nobody will ever tell you this again, so ignore at your own peril.
You sound like an insufferable gay to be quite honest.
I hope you're not like that in person because it could have serious consequences for your social life if you decide to ever leave your hometown because new acquaintances will easily drop you if you start bothering them.
Trying to turn my genuine advice back on me because you think my words will hurt me the way they clearly hurt you? Yeah, you have confirmed I pinned you down pretty good. My intention was not to harm you, but to perform the social responsibility that every man has to pass on wisdom to others. I made the same mistake and rejected good wisdom from others who were doing what I am doing now. This is a completely anonymous website, so I can take no credit or gain anything from helping you.
You should take a break from this site, it clearly affects you in a bad way, as evident in your posts.
Anyway, have a nice day and don't forget to like and subscribe!
Look, you don't have to make any commitment to me, but you really should examine your reaction to me in private. I understand that you don't want to concede because you feel like that would be "losing", and you've already lost enough in life that any small perceived loss drives you up the wall. You think that changing because somebody else suggested so is submissive behavior. I can assure you this is not true. This is not a competition and I am not challenging you to a mental duel or whatever. I will never encounter you again, so I can't ever pull a "told you so" that would hurt your ego. I may as well be a voice in your head.
Ask yourself what being neurotic does for you and how it benefits you. Don't choose to live a miserable life. I've seen where it leads, and nobody deserves to suffer that way.
Not that anon, just want to say you seem way too nice & sensible to waste your time on a troll gay like that any longer
He seems to be able to speak Japanese fluently. His Japanese might no be perfect or native like but only wankers would care really.
> would be much more powerful if he actually possessed those skills as well.
I'd be with you if it wasn't for the absolute massive, and I mean massive amounts of fucktards with JLPT show boating it off in Japan only to not understand how to order a bowl of pork ramen.
What's worse is that most JLPT people who brag about it often have no self-awareness or social skills to make it mean jack fucking shit. Cool you can explain you like video games, anime, and never been outside Tokyo? Wow you're really hitting it out of the park there champ!
I've had too many run in's with people in Japan who are N3 or higher and can't fucking figure out how to use a ticket system at a ramen shop, ask for a figure in a glass cabinet, or understand basic social environments far more than I have dealt with people who know some basic core japanese terms with social skills to fill in the gaps. Biggest red flag to me when meeting with an anon or someone will boast their level because some test told them so, which generally means "please speak to me as a 3rd grader".
I prefer the fucktards who show off their qualifications and then embarrass themselves doing basic tasks than the LBH types who think that basic tasks such as learning the local language are beyond them.
Honestly, for a lot of expats, the better you are at the language, the less important your job is.
Very polite way to address the issue of autistic gays flocking to Japan.
Probably not. There are idiot foreigners like this shumuck who don’t care to learn the local language and just hang around other dirty ass whites.
>the general dislike as a foreigner living and working in japan is universal
No, if you stay there you'll find it only faggy anglos, and the people who associate with them, who can't keep their incredibly whiny mouths shut.
It's people who can't deal with a life that involves having to learn new cultural shit, not being coddled by the government and find it beyond the pale to deal with minor bureacratic quibbles when renting property as a foreigner.
Fuck 'em.
You have no idea what you're talking about
its because he just kind of "ended up" in japan like 10 years ago he didn't flock there in awe like everyone else
he was a teacher and just hung around i guess
its refreshing imo hes very unbiased and disillusioned
>he really doesn't seem to like the place
That just proves that he's been living in Japan for a long time. Most foreigners who stay around inevitably end up like that.
>That just proves that he's been living in Japan for a long time.
True.
>Most foreigners who stay around inevitably end up like that.
False, it's mostly the foreigners stuck in expat circles who end up like that, no matter if Japan, Norway or Panama.
Ask any depressed long-term foreign resident about their social circles and you will see it over and over.
I wouldn't say its universal. I didn't come here until my late 30s and I love it here, been here for 8 years. But I have the experience of being a working professional in several places prior to coming here, which is something that most expats lack. A lot of expats blame the country for what are essentially their own shortcomings. Japan isn't perfect, nowhere is, but if you can't appreciate the positives of living here then you'll be miserable.
I speak shit Japanese and I don't think it has hindered me much. N3 with years of living here is going to be fine for most people. Once you understand the flow of most conversations you can get by fine in 95% of the situations you'll be in.
Almost as if someone who lives in a place for that long wouldn't have a routine set up like any other place in the world. Japan has a few reasonably convenient pros but at the end of the day you're just on earth doing earthly activities.
Doesn't mean the guy isn't appreciating what he has, he's just lucid enough to (sometimes) point out what grinds his gears.
>Speaking basic japanese to a waitress
What did you expect ? An essay ?
The circlejerk he is complaining about is precisely what is happening in this very thread,and is due to retards thinking that being good enough at a language (which most people mean by the term "fluent" as opposed to bilingual, which some of you fuckers seem to conflate on purpose) is not enough and that you should speak perfect japanese to even pretend to understand what life in japan is.
First, nobody who goes in an expat/tourist vlog gives a flying fuck about a local's life. Japan and East Asia (and most of the world in general) in general allow for very limited integration which only concerns a small percentage of foreigners who bother with learning the language.
Truth is, very few people are true bilinguals that didn't study the language in academic fashion. Most japanese speakers have a b2-b1 level at best. This is what most anglos reach after living for decades in Europe and that's perfectly fine for work and colleagues and even friends.
I first went to Taiwan as an r&d engineer then moved to Tokyo once i got a JLPT N3 and never fucking bothered with that exam anymore, and have spoken with my shitty ass broken japanese at work and it didnt prevent me from getting raises and promotions. If your only marketable skill is speaking the local language then no wonder you goofy fuck have to signal to everyone that you need to have presidential translator levels of fluency. Broad has a well paying job and a couple of good friends. The fuck else do you need ?
>but he really doesn't seem to like the place
part of it is his dry british "humour"
the other part of it is that yes, everyone that stays there long enough becomes jaded and starts to hate the place, but usually by the time it happens they get stuck there (marriage, or cant get a job back home) and cant leave
Could you expand upon this? I'd like to believe that Japan is a nice place to stay long term. What would make you hate it?
See
Most people don't hate on Japan and neither does Chris. They complain, because they've been in the country for so long they're starting to notice the cracks. But ultimately, it'll always be better than being back home.
I live on Taiwan and a guy once complained about how a guy was being rude to him in a waiting line in a night market. Dude started to make sweeping generalizations and bitched until i pointed out that shit like this in a similar setting back home 11pm out in the streets in a relatively lower class neighborhood, that shit could've been way worse.
Most of the fucking complaints people have are trouble in paradise type shit which i suspect to be a symptom of homesickness. You put these fuckers back home for a month and they get miraculously cured of any complaints they have.
thanks.
I figured that it was lbh syndrome or Ryan boundless level doomerism.
I don't think it's a paradise, I just want to live in a somewhat reasonable small area (outside one of the major cities but not Tokyo) where people are at least somewhat amicable and I can go to work with people who don't slack off/whine all fucking day.
Maybe I'm a little too optimistic about that last part, but IDK. If I end up teaching English for two years and returning to the states I won't complain, at least it's a change of scenery.
this, hate how often I see the “IF YOU DONT LIKE IT HERE THEN GET OUT” mentality on these boards. Natives will be the first to relentlessly shit on their home country, nowhere is perfect and trying to act like it is is way more cringe than acknowledging where you live has problems but could ultimately be much worse
This was me
>Constantly complain about China and why don't the locals do x like in Canada
>Return home
>Deal with Canadian bureaucracy, deal with retarded Canuck locals, retarded rules/laws that make no sense, terrible weather, unfriendly people who just think about money, government employees with no common sense, the absolute boredom of how everything closes at 6pm, retarded culture where people religiously watch sports, dealing with Canadian banks, the prices of everything, how the Canadian food I loved was really just nostalgia, the uselessness/fear of Canuck cops, etc.
>Return to China
>Keep my mouth shut and never mention Canada ever again
It only seems nice once you’ve done the rat race and had a mediocre British life. If you’ve not, then you’re just going to wonder about the exceptional British life you imagine you threw away because you became a professional tourist in an Asian country that you can never really feel at home in.
I think he's alright. No political bullshit. Just showing things as is.
He is a loser that is copying Mr. Beast and making Mr. Beast style videos
are you retarded? Have you seen either mr beast or Abroad in Japan?
I got my working holiday visa and I'll be there in 3 weeks. Thank you, Nippon-sama, for accepting me.
>I thought so too. Then I learned Chinese and realized just how dog shit he is.
SerpenZA is a mythomaniac on US gov payroll.
He still claims to this day that he was teaching to chinese physicians and surgeons, it's total bullshit.
>SerpenZA is a mythomaniac on US gov payroll.
>He still claims to this day that he was teaching to chinese physicians and surgeons
Nah, i'd believe that about the american guy he hangs with who is clearly quite butthurt about most things chinese but the saffer just reflexively couches his words to make himself seem better without actually lying. If he's just talking about it generally he'll say he "taught physicians and surgeons" omitting the rest but when he tells stories from that time he will specify that he taught them english. Same way he speaks about his "doctor" wife and how he wears that suit all the time because of how people react.
You can also tell he's way more temperate about judging the chinese for their views or taking weibo stuff at face value compared to the other dude as well.
You will realize that most of the anti-China shills can't speak Chinese worth shit. Which means they don't know anything about China, even in Shanghai the level of English is abysmally bad so how did they speak to anyone?
>is he really on japans tourism payroll?
Maybe. Why wouldn't you be if you had his fame? I dont even know why you care about it.
Anyone know this feel
>use to watch AnJ when he was still a teacher

>use his advice on some of the 'common mistakes to make in japan' style videos, realize I stick out more than normal and should just go back to playing it by ear
I don't hate him because he is easy to throw his video at someone asking stupid ass questions or someone who "is going to japan soon...just not this year bro". Though taking his advice outside of anything that isn't for plebbit japan subforums is pointless.
actually this
for me i was already in japan for a few years when he first started making videos
i thought about making my own Japan travel channel but it was the early days of youtube where you couldnt make money or a career from YT unless you made shit like Epic Meal Time
now every cunt and his dog is making millions reacting to generic locally-made food: japan
Are there any "gaijin in japan xd" youtubers that aren't this?
did he fuck kaho?
he's gay, nocap.
She's probably just using him for publicity. There's no way a booba Japanese girl would have sex with a balding man.
That balding man in question is a well known homosexual. He wouldn't even want to have sex with her. He's after the Japanese twinks

>having the same personality with everyone you interact with
You must be autistic
I like Chris but this guy is insufferable.
He's not only annoying, but he's also really stupid and talentless, so he has no worthwhile insight or wisdom to share.
Stupid people are neither interesting nor funny, so what's the attraction of this guy's videos?
I know Chris isn't a genius and he has a lot of reddit-tier opinions, but his videos have a pretty high production quality compared to most other people and he was one of the first "J-vloggers".
Connor and that cringe gay Garnt are both annoying retards.
>t. joey fan
Yeah not a big fan of the trash taste crew tbh, they're all pretty idiotic manchildren, Chris is alright though and Pete the over enthusiastic American is pretty cool too.
Yep agreed
I like Chris and Pete. Ryotaro and Natsuki are fucking hilarious. The rest can fuck off though.
Yeah I don't really get it either, I think their Japan talk is interesting but they have really awful fucking views on things that makes it surprising they can even live there and say they like anime considering how much shit they find problematic
I recently got the JLPT N1 and I'm moving to Japan in 4 weeks (working holiday visa). I guess I should never talk about my own level.
>Be in land of Japanese Idols
>Marries a fat Canadian
Why?
Cultural differences takes a toll on you
t. lived in Japan and dated a japanese girl
What was it like?
Pretty boring tbh, we didn't really have anything in common. Still creampied her a bunch of times
Fair enough. Anything to watch out for with them in general?
Some Japanese think because they Amaterasu's chosen people that they don't get STDs, or that by watching Disney movies you should fit some prince in shining armor stereotype. There worldview is just as bafflingly sheltered as anons here on sighsee. As a result they constantly ask the fucking stupidest shit and are cannot think for themselves. I got serious decision fatigue with a Japanese chick because she expected for me to make every decision and tell her what to do day in and day out. An obedient chick sounds nice, but in reality God damn think for yourself, read a book or something and have a fucking opinion. Anyway, despite better judgment I got Married to a japanese woman, who went to university abroad, so she is wonderfully self sufficient and we can actually be a cohesive relationship.
TLDR, Japanese women are awesome for a casual relationship, long term though is mostly just shit. I don't blame Chris for going back to western women.
>because she expected for me to make every decision and tell her what to do day in and day out
wow, you sure suffered in Japan
>Decision fatigue
What the fuck kind of soft penised transsexual condition is that. Girl basically agrees with every fucking thing you do and your ass is complaining?
Until you marry her and realize you are basically taking care of an overgrown child with little to no executive agency of their own. Just wait till you get histrionic phone calls at work because they don't know the proper wash cycle for your new coat.

obvious larp is obvious
People who are dating tend to have sex, anon. Hooking up with a Japanese girl isn't difficult, especially if you are a tall white man from Europe.
He used to have a Japanese gf years ago and she appears in a few of his videos. She genuinely came across as lorena bobbit style crazy and after breaking up he said in a video about dating Japanese girls that theyre very different from western girls and implied that most are just interested in having an exotic foreign trophy boyfriend for a little while and not an actual relationship.
I muamst have hit the jackpot then.
I'm living in Japan with my Japanese wife. We've been together for 10 years now.
Was coming here to comment on him failing to get a Japanese wife and instead marrying some fat Westoid.
How did you meet/get together?
Was some old online meeting place called Japan Guide. It had a penpal like section. So started as penpals for about a year before that. Now though Japan Guide removed the pen pals section because women were just using it to find foreign men.
But I don't see how that aligns.
Lorena Bobbit crazy is the opposite of being non-committed and aloof?
>He used to have a Japanese gf years ago and she appears in a few of his videos
proofs?
not that anon, but I also remember it
she was fat and ugly
dont forget she had already been RICED
I mean he’s an chubby average-looking Brit, it’s not like he’s some 10/10 himself
also as someone whose actually been to Japan several times, its not like native girls are falling head over heels with every gaijin they see. It’s not the 1900s, they know what white people look like, and any that are going gaga probably just want a meme “foreign boyfriend” for a few weeks till they got bored & tired of the language / culture barrier
>any that are going gaga probably just want a meme “foreign boyfriend” for a few weeks till they got bored & tired of the language / culture barrier
This was my experience in Japan. You're a cool fashion accessory for a few weeks till the novelty wears off.
not to mention even if that’s not the case, I can’t imagine how hard the cultural & language barriers are to overcome — speaking broken Japanese to order dinner is one thing, trying to do so in cultivating an intimate longterm relationship is another
it’s not remotely surprising that two mildly atttactive people with a hyperspecific shared circumstance (foreigners in a very different host country) ended up together, if anything with how they act together in their videos I kind of just always assumed they were dating
this
it was different in the 90s and 00s when foreigners were still very uncommon and Japan wasn't a tourist trap, but gaijin are everywhere there now so they're not special.
Jap women are more into korean guys now than anything else
Hi Kim, how was tonight's kimchi?
What about half white and half korean?
are they into getting beaten up
As someone who married into a well to do Japanese family, they fucking crazy, seriously. I would not blame him if he got burnout dating Japanese and wanted a more comforting slampig
>Be YouTuber names AbroadinJapan
>Living in Japan since 2012
>Become a huge gaijin vlogger

It’s over white bros…
Got some Jap gov contracts through fag networking. Unpleasant in general and even after 10 years in Japan makes boring superficial videos. Is this really the best English speaking Jap YouTuber? Any suggestions for other channels?
No, 99% of all life in Japan content is absolute dogshit. Most of it is regurgitated and falls into the 2 general subgenres of either "ZOMG Japan tbh!!" or "Let me tell you how Japan REALLY is". The same topics get beaten to death over and over again, unless your looking for some very specific tourist shit.
I like it when he bullies the gay zoomer and makes fun of the nip who says funny engrish.
>Move to Japan
>Live there for years
>Strikes out with Jap girls even though he is a white British guy which is a big advantage
>Blame it on nip girls "only wanting trophy husband's."
Why doesn't he just say he was shit at dating japs and only spent his time at Hubs with gaijin hunters.
b-but sighsee told me JBW in Japan
Being white helps but it doesn't guarantee you sez in Japan especially if you want one that is reasonably attractive or sane. Lots of anons larp here.
You have to actually know Japanese enough for conversations if you want the good Japanese.
If you're just looking to fuck a slut stick to Hubs and some STD infected Jap will let you creampie her as long as you are white and at least semi attractive.
>STD infected Jap
How unironically common is this?
among sluts that literally fuck random foreigners every week?
is this a serious question?
I want to creampie a Jap girl so much but I'm afraid of getting STDs, life is painful.
>I want to creampie a Jap girl so much but I'm afraid of getting STDs, life is painful.
Maybe get to know her before fucking her brains out? Also, remember "He who dares, wins", so stop being dumb and live life.
Same. But then again, I'm married.
Could always risk it.
Other than HIV everything else is treatable.
Don't want to get HIV, or Chlamydia and give it unknowingly to my next partner in crime
If you get Chlamydia chances are you’ll know it. Women are the ones who are mostly asymptomatic. As a straight male, your chances of getting HIV are zero.
HIV isn't really as prevalent in Japan. Wonder why...
At worse you get the clap.
Asias have fuck all in the way of sex ed
Chances are they at least like the rest of the world has herpes HSV-1 since it's somehow still on the list even though you can get it from 0 sexual contact.
Anything that isn't curable? rare
There's a difference between hooking up and long term dating.

That is excellent content, what are you talking about
serpentza is a retarded weeb. he made an anime magazine way back in the day. he's very much so the typical beta white male who tries to act hard and has a cringe asian fetish.
YouTube won't stop trying to shill him to me despite me REPEATEDLY telling them I'm not interested in his content. It's annoying and sus as fuck. Who does YouTube keep try to shill to you guys?
On youtube, I get black youtuber shit all the time. Instagram, it's constantly cosplayer/coomer shit, regardless of how many accounts I block and say I'm not interested.
It took me half a year of clicking "not interested" or "do not recommend channel" to get rid of cdawg recommendations.
I used to think he was just an uninteresting and unfunny dude but all those recommendations have made me hate his guts.
Can’t believe this dude ended up with a roastie 4 years older then him
remember when she shilled those scam online crane games hard as fuck? i confronted her about it and she was like "THAT WASNT ME!!!! STOP HARASSING MEEEEE!!!" when it was clearly her giving a tour of the warehouse lmao. typical wh*te woman trash.

She'd be ok-ish if she wasn't fat
She deffo angle frauds on her onlyfans, but her fat distribution isn't horrible, most has gone to her tits. She's fuckable but not relationship material.
lmao she uses onlyfans?
wtf is this normal now to have a gf that uses onlyfans? I thought its a meme
her body her choice, chud
bruh
Sadly it is becoming the norm, as more men become beta gays.

The most annoying, cringe person on TT. His looks for approval from others as he laughs is the most annoying part about this unconfident gay.
>Conner is married to a JV-tuber
No he fuckin ain't
The least attractive one get the best girl while the handsomer Connor and Joey get nothing or trash.
Life is indeed not fair.
connor is married, i'm pretty sure, because when he and chris broad cycled across hokkaido it was to raise funds for some autoimmune disorder charity because he said his wife suffers from some autoimmune disease or something. why do i remember this
Has he ever shown his wife?
I'm pretty sure the "wife" thing was a joke. That video was referring to Ironmouse, a vtuber that Connor does streams with often, but who knows really.
Peter Barakan from Begin Japanology and Japanology Plus on NHK World
Sushi Bath/10
Imagine the smell.
>fat muttmerican
>fat riced roastie past her prime
>sitting in green water eating sushi
joke here somewhere
Wow, that's fat.
I watched a few episodes of this on a whim. The guy on the right seems disappointed in the fact that he hitched his career to reviewing anime.
Did he really? Because of that he is now the most popular, the richest and have the most beautiful wife compare to other two.
I used to love watching these, but I quickly got turned off, used to like watching Connor for a short time, but he is annoying asf, the other two feel like tag-alongs to him.
>Screams loudly about anime and dude-bro humor

Langfocus is the best out of all of these weebs and it's not even close
I smell jealousy
Last I saw of him he was real butthurt about girls not wanting him because he's fat, though in reality it's because he has a pretty boring personality. As a friend he'd be fine, but as a lover that's not someone you want to talk to for long hours.
This guy makes completely zero effort to integrate into Japanes society even in the basic way. He's been living in Japan for years as if it was all one big holiday and then he gave up learning Japanese. And he wonders why the only jap women he can get are gaijin hunters with broken english. Honestly yes there are Japanese women who will treat you like a trophy husband/wife if foreign but there are plenty of genuine Jap girls who would date a foreigner if he actually learnt the language and continued to do so.
What's behind the epidemic of singleness in Japan? Porn? Working hours? Some less-konwn variable?
Also, are Japanese women prone to stalking/false allegations/ other insane behaviours?
Working hours I think.
But I don't see why.
My wife in Japan works Monday to Friday 9-6 and makes enough for us to live in a 2 bedroom apartment in Osaka, pay for two mobile phone contacts, WiFi, Netflix, food and still have about 60000 yen left over a month. And she's just on a basic 280000 a month salary. So I will put it down to part working hours part anime/porn
anyone here yabatan-pilled?
This guy gets laid a lot, does anyone else think this? I bet he is a nampa god.
Silly Norwegian, Dogen is clearly the best youtuber in Japan
>Dogen
lmao. Dogen's whole premise and idea for his videos is that he can pronounce things well. there's no other content
Ironically, he has a couple pronunciation patterns that immediately oust him as an American when he speaks Japanese normally and sometimes even in his scripted speeches.
His Japanese level is incredibly high though, definitely in the top 1% of foreign Japanese speakers to walk the earth.
What's his tell?
The way he pronounces English loanwords in Japanese is still a bit too close to the actual (American) English pronunciation.
If he would go full katakana English he'd pass most blind tests.
I like Dogens dry humor
Not for long if he keeps bringing on those godawful TT people.

He's good for using it in that way when you need to simplify what there is to do in Japan.
wouldnt it just be easier to say "im a gigantic gay"
But what DO you get up in Japan?
Yes? like if you’d ever actually watched one of his videos its not like he remotely tries to hide it, pretty much any of the ones where he’s visiting some expensive place he’ll straight out say “thanks to [whatever agency it is] for paying for everything in this video”
that’s the case for all these gaijin Youtubers, not to mention Japan doesn’t consider “Youtuber” a job for residency visas so IIRC most of what these guys do is get employed by an agency who then legally lists them as an “employee” so that they have a job for the residency application
TLDR all of these Youtubers are to some degree, doesn’t mean they’re complete shills. Chris is p open about what he doesn’t like in Japan and shit
