Gura opens a McDonalds
Pekora: Is McDonalds a train station in English, also?
Bae should open a whataburger and call it whatabaeger
I always imagine every airport has a KFC... so KFP would be an airport? Phoenix can fly!
Lmao , Y'all are hurting my braincells 😃✊🏻

To be fair, Ina even wrote the Subway slogan on that sign!

It’s all puns.

@Abyssal Horror yes
in case anyone wonders why the restaurant is named "Subway", it's a pun. In America, that type of long sandwich is called a "Submarine Sandwich" or "sub" for short. Also, Subway branded themselves on "speed", hence the arrows in the logo and the intentional connection to the train system.
I thought they named it "Subway" because they specifically open their business in underground train stations (subways), turns out there's more to it.
@@indiexanna Your version made it sound like a fancy sandwich place that only makes its branches underground. Like "these sandwiches must not see the light of day"
@@indiexanna i though the same lol
@@richter1934 Need For Sandwich : Underground
@@indiexanna isnt this the origin? the generic name subway sandwich where their market target are people who wants a quick food on subways?
Lmao the best part comes after. She rode the subway to PPP to enchant her elytra only to find out that she forgot her mending book back at her house
And then flew back through the subway only to get killed and shouting kiara's name for help
Oh god I'd be mega annoyed if I were her… 😂
@@Ma-G4 And gets intimidated with the chest size of Ame's statue.
Certified Pekora Moment
What does PPP stand for
"I would like an 8 carriage maglev"
"sir, this is a Subway"
"you tell me"
A maglev train in a subway? Every subway I’ve seen has rails
"can i get shinkanshen, here's my coupon"
"Sir , this is a subway"
"Potaeto potayto"
Who the fuck has a maglev subway
“I wonder if they have a subway overseas”
Big grass moment
She probably thinks the same about Dennys or Wendys cos you can find that in big cities in japan too haha
@@easyduster Pekora be like :
"do they sell comic books in America ?"
The amount of times a Holomem asks if we have or know about **insert random thing** overseas, when it’s something that originated overseas, is hilariously high.
If she's looking for a smoked ham and marscapone sandwich at an American subway, or expecting anything from an American subway to taste good, I have sad news for her.
The other day I said "I'm so hungry I'd briefly consider ordering from subway" to a coworker and got a "Oh dear God, good thing it's time for lunch break".
@@KomboEzaliTe it depends on the store in the US I have eaten at some good subways but yes in general i would much rather eat at some more local store or chain like togo's.
Subway: The largest fast food chain on the planet.
Pekora: *Do they have Subway overseas???*
Subway: is an English word, founded in the US
Pekora: “Do they have Subway overseas?”
@@samiamrg7 best part, surprised the comment is so low.
"Oh, the Japanese like anime too?"
Pekora: "*largest fast train on the planet"
Source for Subway being bigger than McDonalds?
@@cathsaigh2197 don't have any source but it wouldn't surprise me, McDonald's makes you place your franchise in a plot of land that they own while subway doesn't and is a lot cheaper on the franchisee payments.
"I wonder if they have Subway overseas."
"Whoa! You mean the Japanese like Godzilla, too?!"
I mean it’s not too uncommon to have certain establishments that are only in specific countries.
For example I have never seen a Nandos in Germany (I think there are a few locations but never seen them and Germany isn’t even listed on the nandos worldwide list). So while it does have an English name not all of overseas is English. So it is a question that can be asked in confusion without any shame
To be fair, there's a few chains in Japan that are huge in the country that were transplants from the States.
Like Lawson's.
As if some of us wouldn’t genuinely think Godzilla isn’t from Japan
"Woah! Japan has sushi restaurants, as well?!"
In fact, there is "Tokyo Metro" in Japan, but not a "Tokyo Subway", so when most Japanese hear the word "Subway", they think of sandwiches…lol
In most Asian counties, It's called "Metro". I recall it being the case in Hong Kong and Singapore
"metro" itself also not the right way to call that transportation
Both "subway" and "metro" are just how the local calls them
I know "subway" name is from USA(maybe?).
Maybe "metro" word came from Russia? Idk.
Edit: the right way to call that thing maybe like.. Mass Rapid Transportation or maybe Subterranean Train or etc?
@@DBT1007 Tokyo Metro is an exception and more a brand name - probably referring to it serving Tokyo metropolis. In Japanese subway is called “chikatetsu” = underground train/railway like used here by Pekora. Most Japanese subway systems are called X chikatetsu in Japanese and X Subway in English like in Kobe, Kyōto, Nagoya, Sapporo, and so on. The operator of the Tokyo Metro is also called Tokyo Chikatetsu. Finally, Tokyo has two subway systems: the other is called Toei Subway.
@@DBT1007 Both terms originated in the UK.
London's metropolitan railway opened in 1863. Similar transport systems that came later often used either "metropolitan" in the name or shortened it to "metro." Many of the later transport systems look very different from the original London model, but that was the first use of the term in this context.
In the UK the term "subway" primarily means an underground path, often as a route that directs pedestrians to cross beneath a busy road. However, it was used as the name of Glasgow's underground train system, which opened in 1896.
@@chikin6146 in Singapore we call it MRT, but we know what subway is (both the train term and the sandwich chain)
"Overseas bros please tell the clueless ones"
idk either Pekora, in here we have 7/11's literally in every damn street corner and that's about it.
Not any decent ones lol
In every corner and sometimes next to each other. For some fucking reason
well atleast u can get a cheaper version sandwich too if you are hungry...
@@pzgamerch There's literally a circle k right across the street from another circle k in my town lol
In my country it's just like Indomaret and Alfamart. Sometimes they are just across each other, the other time they are just side by side.
To be fair, her door Bell is called "Tako Bell". Knowing Ina, this was intentional.
Honestly, really wholesome that she just learned an English word that she'll probably remember now because of that incident
Welp, I think she's gonna be fine overseas. There's a high chance she'll end up in the same place when she asks for a "subway".
If someone was asking me for Subway, my first thought would be the sandwich shop. I worked at one for a while..
@@redkommie80 If some stranger was asking me for Subway in New York , that is a whole different type of kink shiet LOL
@@Dan_Kanerva oh in New York or anywhere that has an actual subway line (in America), I can believe that. Now through, I wonder if Britain and Europe call it Subway or something else? Tram line? Or is that buses in England? Either way, fair point on New York.
@@redkommie80 we call it the underground in britain or just the train
@@llodoroo *ahem* Glasgow Subway.
"To your left is the subway, bit to your right is a mystery, the unknown"
Pekora: *chooses sandwich*
Supposedly the reason there are more Subways than McDonalds is that it costs way less to start a Subway franchise than a McDonalds.
but they are not making money like macd and many have gone out of business
here in argentina, subway is not that many as macdonals, like 5%
It's not just that. Mcdonalds are VERY choosy about optimal store location. It's often joked that Mcdonalds isn't a restaurant chain but a real estate company.
I'm sure it helps that they can be much smaller. The Subway near me only had one table pre-covid, and it was right next to the line
@@thewizardninja McDonald is weird like that. Also idk if you notice but if you see a almost any chain restaurant there always mostly gonna be a McDonald nearby lmao
Missed opportunity to try and convince Pekora that McDonald's means bus station
Language barrier misunderstandings are some of my favorite content.
Peko Miko NYC trip - "Excuse me, where do i take the ham sandwich to see the Freedom lady?"
Theres so many layers to this. Man Pekoras a real entertainer isnt she
Her saying _mascarpooone_ and searching for them is so cute haha :D
Eaf Freef
Her excitement is just too precious
She was told the truth and was like “nahhhh you’re full of shit, Americans please tell them that subway is subway”
Are you telling me Subway in Japan has subs with things like smoked meat + mascarpone? Good lord, we Canadians are getting the rough end of it I guess!
I know right? Now I have to reverse engineer that sandwich in my kitchen because that sounds amazing.
if what your getting is the rough end then we americans must be the Very edge of the rough end, so rough it can chisel stuff
@@chasebladesword1211 That's that free market capitalism for ya lads!
Japanese fast food is actually classy. Here in the States we have a good-enough attitude with that stuff and put in misguided additives like fruit sugar and hydrogenated oil that do more harm than they were supposed to prevent even nowadays because modern corporate America colludes to milk suffering of commoners-miseducating you about proper eating, making the good food expensive, encouraging you to eat junk so they can make you need a doctor, having the doctor put you on a diet they know you won't be able to stick to and even if you do it won't last because it's not to your taste while also doing nothing to help with factors outside your control like your terrible parents constantly mocking you for being a fattie while eating more of the same crap as you than you do and getting away with it because of metabolism from God, blaming you for not staying in control, forcing you to get special aid, covering your story on reality TV, burdening you with so many other problems all the while that you don't even have a chance to look up the real answers online.
That all said, native Subway can still be quasi-liveable fast food if you pick the right bread. Carbs in general aren't the problem, and neither is gluten unless you actually have a sensitivity; _refined_ carbs are.
Western fast food places have to work hard to get a foothold in Easterns countries. Like, McDonald’s here is basically processed garbage but over in Asia? Oh my god it’s like normal restaurant food. Got hot wings and a spicy chicken burger and was reminded that in China they take spicy seriously. And it wasn’t just hot, it had flavor. Actual flavor from McDonald’s.
I guess Subways in Japan still adhere to the fresh ingredients doctrine as opposed to the molding doom-meat they serve over here.
I think if somebody asked me “do you know subway” my brain would just shut down unable to comprehend the meaning of this sentence that lacks both prepositions and articles
The Japanese version of that question would literally translate as "Subway know?"
I think the problem with the sentence is that it uses ‘subway’ as a proper noun, implying that she means Subway the restaurant and not the general word for underground trains, ‘subway’, which is a common noun. So if she asked this to someone, they would probably respond that they know of Subway the sandwich restaurant, and reinforce the idea that the word ‘subway’ mainly refers to the restaurant.
Who's Subway?
@@LavaSaver Another part of it is that stating knowledge of something as "knowing X" implies having significant information and competence regarding actual instances of that thing such as proficiency in an academic subject, what a place is like, how a person acts etc. while saying "know about X" implies familiarity with the general topic regardless of specific examples and "know of X" merely means knowing that something exists in some way. So to say "know subway" sounds like a straight reference to the Subway restaurant chain or perhaps an individual Subway restaurant (clarifiable with extra words as in "know that Subway") rather than subway train systems or the word itself since both would have to be clarified with extra words: "know about subway systems" "know what "subway" means"
@@Candlemancer Or in more proper English, "Is the notion of "subway" known?"
It all started from one of Ina's puns, kept her entertained all the way to PPP
Indeed Subway isn't selling sandwich.
That *thing* can't be called a sandwich.
I love subway’s rabbit sandwich
Smoked beef and mascarpone...I kind of want to try The Pekora.
Man what it must be like to live somewhere where Subway actually makes good tasting food
Well, i'm English and i used to have a meatball marinara for lunch in the early days of secondary school. They tasted pretty nice but they're bloody expensive and super messy.
The cat be jamming to pekora bgm at 0:15
That's adorable. Beyond adorable.
Yup due to never having a train at our country, i also got gotten there along with pekora. I forgot subway was an underground train station first before the sandwich shop.
so was looking at thumbnail be like; _well yaaaa what else would it be??_
I was another way around ... in my english text book, they tell us "Subway" is an underground railway ... Than I was surprised when someone ask me "Hey! Have you ever eat Subway?" I was like "yo, you eat train ?!" ...
I never seen any of "Subway" with my own eyes in my life tho ...
Well, guess Watson Industries needs to build a Subway inside the subway.
i feel that the only place you might think of the underground train rather than the fast food first would be in the east coast.
This is the best Subway ad I've ever seen. Thanks, Pekora!
I feel like pekora and kronii would bond over their love of subway
Pekora after finding out there is no underground sandwich shop: “We’ve been tricked, backstabbed, and quite possibly, bamboozled.”
Can we suggest EN server to install a food mod.
Bam!! Sandwiches and other assorted food
This is the second time that one of the girls thought that some Overseas companies are from Japan hahah. The first time was Miko (or still Pekora) saying ''They don't have 7Eleven Oversea?'' and now this one lol. I wonder if they think MacDonald is from there too XD
I'm waiting for KFC or Kit-Kat...
It's not uncommon for the Japanese apparently, they can notoriously ignorant of anything outside Japan lol
To put it politely, Japanese people are incredibly parochial.
@@exu7325 I think that might just be the result of them being an island nation that doesn't do a particularly good job at teaching English (because it really isn't needed by them to the same extent as other countries). They have their own internet sites, and not many of them are talking to English speakers online, and so they don't naturally develop a sense for what things are like in our countries.
@@captainthunderbolt7541 Trust me man, the average Chinese people know that McDs and Starbucks are foreign. It's just ingrained in the contemporary Japanese culture and system.
Amazing how I got an ad for subway when I clicked this
I've never heard someone say subway and delicious in the same breath. I assume JP Subway has a significantly higher quality standard
I mean, it's not always bad. But when it's bad, it's really really bad.
Weeell it's not only in jp, also in a certain country of tacos Subway is sooooo delicious.
It’s just a sandwich. How bad can it get? Tastes fine enough.
All the ones I've ever had have been good but I'm not in the states
Everyone in the world has a higher quality standard than the US when it comes to food. All the bread I've had from US manufacturers have been basically cake. Why is there so much sugar in your bread?
The reason there are so many Subways in the US is because the cost to open a Subway restaurant is significantly lower than other popular fast food restaurants.
Also, "Subway" refers to both an underground train, and the restaurant. The prefix "sub-" means to be below something, so a subway is a train that runs underground. Subway the restaurant was likely named as a pun because of their submarine sandwiches, which they are famous for.
By the way, Gura's back entrance also includes a path to Ina's house marked "Tako Bell". And there's also a KFP nearby, so the EN server is like a fast food hotspot lol.
1:22 that "eh?!" is so CUTEEEEEEEEEEEE
1:56
the way pekora says mascarpone is stuck in my head 2 months after watching this
In a sense, she’s not wrong to refer to sub sandwiches as Subway. It’s called genericization. Like how many people here call tissues Kleenex
Lol true, some tissues not even Kleenex brand and still called Kleenex
I like how she said sandwich in her english sentence instead of sandoichi
Auditioning for Subway commercial-peko
That _"Ehh!?"_ at 1:22 seems perfect for a Surprised Pikachu Face.
Subway is short for subterranean way/path. I used to think it meant underground train but it’s for any underground passageway. So I was confused one day when I was in a subway but there was no trains.
Yup, hence the word Submarine, which is actually what the Sub Sandwich term comes from. Prior to that they were called Hoagies, or Hero sandwiches, etc. most of the time.
Sometimes there is a subway in a subway
I've never seen a Subway before.
Yes both the underground train and the sandwich shop.
In the 90's a subway opened up here in NZ. I thought an underground train system was unnecessary for Auckland.. Ten years or so later i learned they make sandwiches.
In fairness, an underground rail system (or an elevated/entrenched one) could work if planned even remotely well.
Adorable peko
I like that you ended the clip the moment Pekora was about to hit the wall
I hope someone from Subway sees this. Pekora can get that paper, son.
I guess subway website gonna crash.
when we get asked we simply go: the subway stations or restaurant? then proceed to answer the right one.
When we get asked, it’s usually obvious based on context.
Subways is just the franchise name and also the name of trains. The actual sandwiches have various different names, some of which are regional.. like Sub, Hoagie, Hero, Torpedo, Italian Sandwich, Grinder, Wedge, Spukie, Zepplin, Po'boy, Gatsby, and Blimpie.
sub comes from the general term Submarine sandwich
@@SirElderock Yep, but out of all of them.. Blimpie is my favorite.
*insert The Incredibles meme*
Pekora: Subway is Subway!
Pekora really working hard for that lucrative Subway endorsement.
I hope subway paid her 'cause she was straight up doing an advertisement lol
Pekora rejects your reality and substitutes her own, peko.
Next time I'm at Subway I'm getting smoked ham and mascarpone
Unless you are in Japan, good luck.
Well, that was adorable.
Man, when she puts it like that, I'd feel bad for someone asking about the restaurant and getting directions to the train, lol. Though it doesn't help that Ina added Subway's catchphrase to the sign, lol.
i cant with pekoras cuteness and smugness...
omg she's so cute! I gotta check out more of her streams! Maybe I'll buy her a beef and mascarpone subway sandwich too! ^3^
Gotta love Pekora .....
That day smoked beef and mascarpone went out of stock
Definition of subway
US: a public transport system that runs on rails (also called metro)
UK: an underground tunnel for pedestrians to cross a road, rail, river, etc
Both: a fast food restaurant
Mascarpone at subway? Boy I wish
Damn, nostalgic BGM
Now I wish they actually made subway on that underground
Milad is proud of this
Pekora: i wonder if they have Subway overseas
Origin of Subway: wat
TIL they have mascarpone in japanese subways
Pekora knows how to eat fresh
Pekora... Until the end, she still doesn't get it... Never change, pekora.
So cute... Also that Indiana Jones BGM
She had an elytra and fireworks the whole time but she took the subway lmao
The train is called a subway. The restaurant is called Sooubway.
Pekora is so precious
Now I want subway... Specifically I want whatever sandwich Pekora is talking about, because I've never seen them sell smoked meat and marscapone.... I've never even seen them sell smoked meat, for that matter.
Mascarpone (the correct spelling) is a soft spread type of Italian cheese, so unlikely to see it in the USA.
I'm also confused, since mascarpone is also quite sweet, hence it being used in a lot of desserts.
I'm putting this down to Japan being Japan. They understand the concepts of sandwiches and hamburgers, but they do them their own way.
One good thing about being a brit is that we call the underground trains the underground/tube. avoids the confusion about asking where 'the subway' is 😂
I mean if we named the sandwich shop "the underground/tube" it would still cause the same confusion.
@@TeslaHaxz you might be on to something there xD omegaLUL
The way she gets so excited over a sandwich… how can this war criminal be so cute…
"I've been bamboozled, peko" - Pekora, probably .
I ordered a submarine sandwich at a subway once (instead of shortening it to sub) and the people behind the counter treated me like a crazy person.
Subway: thank you for free advertising.
In the U.S. there are two kinds of Subway. One is a place where you can usually find edible food....
The other is sandwich chain.
Bless poor Peko, English and it's double meanings.
The confusion is that the word "Sub" both means "below" and is a type of sandwich. The restaurant "Subway" uses this as a play on words which would obviously be lost on somebody that doesn't speak much english
Sub (the sandwich) is shortened from submarine sandwich due to their shape similarity. Submarine meaning "below water". So in the case of the sandwich, it still means "below", but in a rather indirect way.
She fell for the pun master's tricks
" *Subway* is *Subway!* "
-war criminal 2021
We can never allow Pekora to encounter the concept of context.
And she will get a subway promotion soon guys
It’s not like it gets any less confusing. Another name for the subway train stations is “the metro” and there’s also a grocery store chain called Metro.
It gets even worse if you factor in T-Mobile US, which owns what was once known as MetroPCS. (Currently, it's known as "Metro by T-Mobile".)
“tr-r-r-r-rain!”
I didn't expect a Subway promo...
