      Well, because in Japan, most people who talk to strangers like this are either religious or scammers.
      No wonder they are suspicious.
      Besides, most of the foreigners in this video probably already knew him. He is somewhat well known to foreigners, but totally unknown to the Japanese.

    @Giminy หลายเดือนก่อน +280

    As a half Japanese myself, in regards to making friends with Japanese people, I think the reason you kept getting rejected is due to your initial approach. Your first line, "do you want to be my friend!?" can seem too abrupt, without any context explaining Why you want to be friends. I think if you approach them casually, introducing yourself and that you're looking for more Japanese friends, and Then inviting them to your party, I feel you would've gotten more approvals.

    • @NO1xANIMExFAN

      Like the half Japanese girl said in the video, it all depends on the place you go. The places he went most people are on the move in their own mindset going about their work.
      You go to Shinjuku or Shibuya and I guarantee by the end of the night there would be at least 100 people going to that party.

    When you come up all of a sudden to unsuspecting strangers and ask them to be your friend, you sound weird and creepy. Instead, you should've told them your objective.
    "Hi, my name's Jess. I'm trying to see if I can have a Japanese friends today. Would you be my friend?'
    "I'll be hosting a party for all of my new friends tonight. Would you be down to attend?"
