So interesting as always and thanks for the video. Tanabata is your favorite - lol, it gave me time to think about Tanabata a little and what is my favorite...Still not quite sure but fun to think about!
I hope everything is alright with your mom, Eric. Best of luck to her.
Thank you.
Beautifully explanation of the story,, Eric. All the best for your mom!
Eric looking sharp in those glasses!!! :))
I’ll use my wish for your Mum too Eric! Hoping her health improves! 🙌🏻
Happy birthday Calpis! They burn the tanzuku thingys + the bamboo. Essential part of the ceremony. Bit like sending your wish list to Santa by throwing it on the fire and watching the ashes go up the chimney. There was a Tanabata Festival at a japanese garden here in belgium last sunday. We were given wooden things (more like the ones you see hung up at shrines) to write our wishes on. Naturally no one wrote their name and address on the back😁
Interesting, 七夕originated in China, but the in the Chinese version of the story, the weaver daughter actually descended down with some of the other goddesses to bathe in a river, and the cow boy took her clothes, and they end up getting married. But then her father the sky god found out and took her back to the heavens. The rest is similar. Wish everyone had a happy 七夕with their loved ones, and Eric hope your mom gets well soon.
Very interesting festival. Much prayers and thoughts that your mom gets better
We used to celebrate Tanabata at my high school it was so pretty!! Hope to enjoy it one day in Japan!
That was a fascinating story and another awesome video. May your wishes come true and may lots more people find your channel interesting as I do. Blessings! 🙂💕🇯🇵
This was so cool to see!! One of my favorite book series called Tales of Otori has this festival in it and describes it and I have always loved the story of it. Thank you for sharing what it actually looks like!
I spent tanabata at my sensei's place making wagashi. 👍
I need to live in Japan. I love how quirky, friendly and respectful that place is. I don't know how I would go about making that transition but it's definitely a goal of mine. This is all because of your awesome videos Kyde and Eric.
Step one is to make it your Tanabata wish!
エリックさんの書く日本語が上手すぎてビックリ！
What a nice writing in japanese,Eric!
Sending all the good vibes to your mom! Thank you for sharing the story, it's a awesome holiday imo.
Greetings from a new subscriber in Seattle!
I hope your mom's better soon, Eric.
Thank you, Paul! -E
I wish you all the best Kyde and Eric. I've been following you for years, enough to be sure that you deserve it.
Thanks!
I wish your future will be brilliant, Kyde and Eric.
Herder, herdsman, cowboy, rancher... any of those words work. :P Thanks for all your videos, as always. I'm not gonna write my wish here, you're just gonna take my name and address and send me birthday cards! Can't fool me!
Interesting and very Japanese celebration... I really do love to see these kinds of cultural things... thank you for showing us this unique tradition!
Was really looking forward to this once it hit my notifications. I knew it was going to be a story- rich episode. This story sounds like it inspired "Your Name" a bit.
Also, praying for your mom / family good sir.
Hello
This is a really nice upload! I love it. Tanabata reminds me of my kindergarten days. Back then I never knew what to write on a tanzaku. It is very sweet that Eric writes his wishes in Japanese on a tanzaku for her Mother. I wish her really well. It has been a while since I was last back in Japan, but I always remember Tanabata.
The tanabata festival is the Japanese version of the Qixi Festival of China
it is the story of the cow heard and the weaver girl just like Japanese New Years also came form China to
[Gosh Dang!!!!]
Thanks for explaining Tanabata. I just watched a Samurai movie and Tanabata was mentioned.
Very picturesque. It's nice that traditions like this are kept alive. I get the impression Japan is quite good at this, or is it mainly for commercial reasons? Boring fact: it would take roughly 2 * 10^21 magpies to build a wing bridge spanning the _actual_ Milky Way, if my math isn't all wrong. That's a lot of magpies. Also nice gesture, best wishes to your mom.
Haha, wonderful math! Tanabata is very not-commercial, actually, which is part of why I love it. -E
ひどい雨の日で残念でしたね～。
七夕の日は雨が多いのです。最近56年のうち、晴れた日は17回だけだそうです。
羊飼いとお姫様はなかなか会えないようですねｗ
Being in the rainy season is bad luck for the star lovers! -E
Thats a great story and loved how if its raining no bridge was made. Hope its nothing too serious with your mum Eric and she makes a speedy recovery.
That is so utterly beautiful and gives me hope for my personal love story 💙 I wish I had known this before! Next year I'll make sure to celebrate and write my wish & put it somewhere. Thanks guys! ✌💙💫
My Tanabata wish, Good health and happiness to everyone
It's worth a go
What a great story!
Wishing all the best for you and yours 😊 ps love the extra bit at the end with Eric 😂😂🇬🇧🏴
What an awesome look into a unique Japanese holiday. I really enjoyed this video a lot, so intriguing. I always love your videos though :)
Thanks so much for thr upload guys!! Eric, well wishes to your mom 💞
Wishing the best for your Mom and family.
I love how you told the story in such good detail. Even I forgot a lot about the story. I went to Hiratsuka this year, but that location you guys choose looks much better!
Yea man, the place we go is vastly more quaint than most of the big festivals. Even when it's crowded it's peaceful. -E
Wish your mom all the best Eric!!
ty for your video i have to made an exposition at school and this video explains really well everything thanks again
Loved the camera work for this video. Good "cinematography" for a TH-camr!
I love Calpis especially the Melon Calpis!
Thanks! It was challenging to film in the dark and rainy setting, glad it came out good! -E
Right? Been amazing to see them grow in so many ways over the years. Always good and getting better yet...
Tanabata is my birthday 🥰 I really wanted to do this
When your last name is Klein but you're two meters tall.
Hi Kyde & Eric , great to see this new video ,hope your both well , keep up with the great videos , thanks for sharing to us all
You are welcome!
I wish that everyone gets their wishes !
Hope you mom will get well soon! And thank you so much for the video.
I’ve know about tanabata for awhile but I didn’t know the colors of the tags have meaning that’s so cool! Also I heard from somewhere that the reason for putting your address on there is so that the gods know exactly where to send your wishes and apparently if you can write your whole wish in one breath it’s extra lucky but no one really does that anymore.
Best wishes and prayers for your mother hope things get better for her soon!
Oh my wish! Mine is that I hope me and my fiancé can find a place to live that’s our own and that I can find a job I can do well at.
Good luck on those quests! -E
I appreciate these shorter format videos. I used to watch years ago and for whatever reason the TH-cam algorithm decided I should watch again. You both look great and continue to be entertaining after all these years. Best wishes to you both :)
Glad you swang back by! -E
Loved this Video, I'm sending positive thoughts for your Mother Eric...
What a beautiful video. I hope your mum feels better soon.
Thanks for the video and the explanation. I hope both your wishes come true.
Thanks!
July 7th!! That’s almost real time Kyde and Eric. Rockin’ the glasses by the way. Been looking for a new pair and I’m liking that shape
I love you guys. I hope your mom feels better.
七夕は、中国から奈良時代に日本に伝わった行事とされています。
私も大好きな行事です。子供の事、幼稚園で、七夕の歌 （th-cam.com/video/siHQQrJU8rA/w-d-xo.html）
を歌って、笹の葉に短冊をつるしたのを、とても懐かしく想い出します。
東京の神社で七夕の行事をやっているとは知りませんでした。来年は行ってみたいなと思います。
KydeさんとEricさんの願いが叶いますように！ (*^o^:) Thank you!
COWPISS!
Eric you look super smart wearing the glasses
Very Interesting , meetings from Colombia!!!
So are we getting hipster Eric from now on? JK Love the glasses old man.
The black suit, rollneck and shades are on order
A tall figure in a black suit and shades sits smoking a cigarette enveloped in blue smoke, the strains of cool jazz drift through the underground cafe, after 3 hours he says "My witness is the empty sky" and nothing more untill he leaves the club 2 days later
The story behind that holiday is pretty cool. Are you using a new camera or something? The quality looks amazing! Love you guys! Oh and Eric hope your moms feeling better
Different lens than usual! Thanks! -E
If I recall this correctly the Calpis packaging is actually inspired by Tanabata. Hence the blue with white dots for stars. For some reason most bottles or cans of it now use white with blue stars. For those who want to try it outside Japan the name was changed to Calpico because of how the original sounds in English.
Interesting, that makes sense! -E
That seems similar to the Japanese wish plaques (ema)
Yep!
Nice video, thank you so much. I hope your wish will come true.
I wish for good health and prosperity for me and my family!
I was hoping you guys would make a video on this
Wishes come true!
I hope your mom feels better Eric. My thoughts are with you
Hello everyone
hi
the glasses look good on you eric
Omg you guys just reminded me that whenever someone I knew mentioned Calpis, their accent made it sound like they were saying "Cow Piss" so for the longest time I thought there was a drink in Japan called "Cow Piss"
Edit: just saw you guys mention that misconception. Must be a common thing lmao
Haha, it is often giggled about. -E
I wish for erics mom to have good health too
What do you do with tanzaku when tanabata is over?
Hey Kyde & Eric I’d love to see you guys collab with Ericsurf6!
*~Eric,* you look really good in those glasses! And *Kyde,* dear; you always look marvellous ...!! // I sincerely do hope that your mum is feeling much better, and that she'll be in excellent health, Eric! // Tanabata does have a most intriguing back-story; but, hmmmm: getting to meet-up just once per year...?? That is a bit harsh; does "Tanabata" translate, possibly, as: The, "Well-It's-Better-Than-Nuthin" Festival, i wonder?? And also, 'not if it's raining'...?! Wow, talk about putting obstacles in the way of true love ({: \ ...! Well, at least - as Kyde said, "...it is the most glittery"; that alone certainly makes it worth the price of admission, i would say. Oh, and a very Happy*100th*Birthday - to "CowPiss" ({; D ...! And may all your wishes come true, **K&E*!!*
Yes cowherd you are correct sir
I made up a word! -E
"
am I min shot? looks like your filming my ..." Tats what he said.
Did you get a new camera? The picture quality is noticeably different !
Used a different lens than usual. -E
Kyde and Eric I thought it looked much improved too. i would have guessed a new camera, nice job!
You were saying "cowherd" ...but I kept hearing "coward". Ha!
おめでとうございますカルピス！
I hope Eric's mom is feeling better soon.
Speaking of Itabashi... That's where we're going to be staying while we're in Tokyo. I know NOTHING about that area. Any thoughts about you guys continuing with your Tokyo wards video series?
We will film some ward videos eventually, we just have a lot of video backlogged to upload still at the moment. -E
July Rain? All month? I think October may be best. Need washi paper trips Onsen and all over Shikoku. Bike on that island , electric ones I think.
Eric's wish for his mother' good health. So what about Kyde 's wish ? How about a little junior Eric ?
Her wish is the same every year and every year it comes true. If she's having babies and hiding them I'm going to be impressed. -E
It's interesting that this video has fewer views than usual. I always watch all your videos and yet I missed this video. Based on the view count, I don't think I'm the only one that missed it. It seems like the video got back-filled into the timeline, because I swear I would have seen it earlier. This isn't the first time I have seen this happen either. I can't imagine it's done on purpose by youtube, but there is something weird.
I should have directed my wish to the TH-cam algorithm gods. -E
Same! I didnt see it on my subscription page. I had to find it in my recommended section.
Hey Vsauce Eric here.
The daughter of a god has a profession too? Dang! I know Japanese people are usually quite humble but their gods too? 🤣 Reminds me of one of Warren Buffet’s kids - he is a farmer even though his father is a multi billionaire.
Kyde are you wishing for your car!
can do that
It hurts the tree hope not
It's typically bamboo they have cut and brought in for the festival. It along with all the wishes are burned at the end.
9:56 15 to 20 minutes isn't long but it might be enough time... wink...
...Just a 'quickie' ({; > ....!
Ya the whole addresses thing could just leave people's identities vulnerable to killers. The rest of the holiday is cute tho.
Haven't been killed yet! -E
Eric Nice Shirt :p SP
To Mums. My Mum is ill too.
I hope she is well soon. -E
:-)
:-)
I wish for true love.. i wish for the health of my dad
Did you just say "coward guy"🤭🤭😅
I wish for my allergy’s to go away
この行事が日本に古くから伝わるラブストーリーだと理解できているのでしょうか？英語があまり理解できないので失礼とは思いますが。この行事は日本全国で毎年行われます。
七夕の物語知っています！ビデオで説明しましたから、殆どの外国人は話を分かりませんが僕の好きな日本の行事ですね。-e
Pity Americans can't lean to pronounce things correctly, such as "Tanabata"
日本語上手ね。
I'm not sure what wishing does, but I'll be praying to the Lord Jesus Christ for your mom's health.
Hanging wishes on trees is uniquely
Mandarin origin traditional culture not japanese.
I know somebody Super Adviser send you a money to upload videos.
From your video, American can feel superior about Japan and Asia.
But if the money stops, what would you do?
えっと。。。
あなたはアメリカ人を喜ばせるために動画を作っていますね。
アメリカ人が喜ぶことをして、アメリカ人が喜ぶことを言っています。
わたしは間違っていますか？
@@taichinakatani5299 ビデオを作る理由は世界の面白い事を紹介したいですね。日本に住んでいるから沢山の日本についてビデオを生産してが、他の国についても作ります。
そうですか。わかりました。
くれぐれも気をつけてくださいね。あなたの動画を不快に思った日本人が、埼玉のあなたの家に行くこともあります。
日本人は、心の中に、人には見せないものがありますから。
日本に住んでいるあなたなら理解できると思います。
