Please, kindly put subtitles when you speak english, sometimes it's hard to understand some words. I really love your content. Good luck!
I hope you make a content also on foreigners being stalked by Japanese men OLD/YOUNG, it would be a pretty dang honest and legit content although it may not acquire much views.
takashii the troll
My Japanese wife and I have been together for almost 40 years. She was the first Japanese exchange student living in a small town in Montana. Her host mother just happened to be my favorite aunt and the first time we met, we stayed up all night just talking together happily.
We’ve been married 36 years now and have 3 grown children. We still can’t be separated from each other for very long. It’s a very strong bond we share and for this we are forever thankful. It’s not often one finds a true soulmate. ❤
Translation: You have been her free English teacher for decades.
@@yishihara55527what is wrong with you
I actually found my soulmate in Japan too! We are inseparable.. It’s great to see others who share the similar experience! Cheers and god bless! ❤
That's so cute. Happy for you

The first lady's accent is a perfect mix of Japanese and English
Ok
And British English, too
@@margaritarobertson6737 'British English' is just English. American English is the alternative
@@jackpalmer7577Not true.
@@PhilosophiaeAmator no? If an American born, non Jamaican person were to start speaking the Jamaican language, but retain his accent and his belief of how things are said/ pernounced.. is he speaking jamaican, or an alternative variant of said language? One riddled with faults learnt from being brought up being taught another?
The first lady's accent being mixed is actually cool
I noticed that too. Years ago we had an ice cream shop that was run by a German family. When they were speaking German they sounded German, but when they switched over to English they had a heavy Southern accent.
It's funny you hear it as a "mixed" accent - I'm guessing you're not British? As a British person who knows quite a few Japanese people, she sounds really familiar to me!
Yea sounds mixed fo sho. It is really cool tbh
@@dylancope yes I'm South African so I've my share of accents and to my ears it's a mix of the British accent and the japanese English accent hence my saying “mixed”
It’s crap. I have to deal with this nonsense daily. People who can’t even pronounce words correctly.
cool to see neymar is enjoying japan
I came to say the same thing lol
😁😆
As a Brazilian I aprove the joke. Please make more 😂😂😂
Exactly what i thought of him 😅
Literally thought the same thing 😭
My wife (Japanese) and I (American) met in Hawaii in 1983 and married in 1984, we will be celebrating our 40th Anniversary this July. She is the best thing that ever happened to me.
Congratulations bro did you have kids
@@colchoneros5076 yes, we have two daughters who grew up in Japan but are now living in the US.
@@keimahane congratulations i wish you à long life you and your beautiful family from Congo in Africa
@@keimahane put me on
The best advice these couples gave was DON’T ASSUME ANYTHING. Ask every possible question because sometimes different culture habits can make you upset about the other but the more you ask the more you know each other ☺️
I would say this is great advice for any couple!! Even if you live in the same country, your family's culture and individual ways of being will be different :)
I love Takashi so much. His interviews are so good and detailed, the people who he interviews are always so interesting and varied. The sound and video quality is always on point and the format is the same every time - so clean and straight forward, no annoying sounds effects, swooshes, loud voices and too-quick editing.
Love it!
They all look so dedicated to each other. Maybe mixed marriages makes you try so much harder to understand each other. They all seem so well suited. Beautiful.❤
They start because of the interest in the other culture. It’s fun both ways. The hard part starts when you have kids 😂
the second couple is the cutest showing their affection, with him with his arm around her body and holding her waist and her with his back
Especially since he is Japanese! Open displays of affection like that are common in he US but not in Japan.
I'm from Brazil and I traveled to Japan in 2016. I think they're completely different cultures. I love Japan and this country is fascinating to me.

First couple is so cute and perfect for each other 😍😍
Thank you for the interview, Takashii! It was so fun getting to see everyone else's stories too
ㅋㅋ
Ahh~
I'm Mexican American from California and married to a Japanese woman and have a baby boy together living in Japan. When we first met in Fukushima, it was like we've known each other in a different lifetime or something, we were super compatible and a few years later we still miss each other when we're not around together. I would have never thought a guy like me, growing up in South Central L.A. would one day share my life with such a beautiful and caring soul so far away. 🇲🇽🇺🇲 ❤ 🇯🇵
Did you know japanese before meeting just curious. I know some Japanese so yeah btw que bueno ver a un mexicano por aqui buena suerte en tu relacion
@@peterevan4790 I knew some Japanese before and she knew some English too. Si gracias.
good luck to you both! and never forget you deserve each other!!
Thanks for sharing - beautifully expressed.
I enjoyed these interviews so much. It was beautiful to hear their stories and hear and feel the love between each couple.
wow all these couples looked so nice, they all suited each other and they seemed deeply in love, beautiful stories ❤
It's interesting how the woman in the first couple acquired a British accent possibly speaking English with her partner. Humans are amazing!!! Love is Love YALL!!!
Agreed, she was definitely successful as they met on a language app, she is so fluent now 😍
Nice content Takashi san! These videos are really what make your channel unique. Good job!
🎉🎉🎉
The energy of the 2nd couple about learning and upgrading on ourselves is so goood!
I think it would be amazing to interview interracial couples with +10 years of being married. Since it's a way different perspective of marriage.
Love watching this videos and imagine different stories, but my country at war, no chances to visit any country, so I'm just happy that they found each other. This videos are very positive and encouraging, thx Takashi for your work.
I think the first guy who said "spend some time in your partner's country" is spot on. I'm Welsh and my wife is Finnish, we met in Hudderfield and lived there for the first year of our relationship, and she'd already lived there for a year before we met. So she definitely knew British (if not Welsh) culture. Then we moved to Finland in 1999 and it gave me a much better idea of her culture and upbringing. Being here and reading about Finnish history, and classic Finnish literature (though to be fair in translation).
I've been in Finland 25 years now, and it's much more my home than the UK these days. My kids are Finnish, my wife is Finnish, how could it ever feel "foreign" under those circumstances?
an addition to that is - "be prepared to live in your partner's country permanently" - someone is going to have to sacrifice if you're going to stay together. It might have to be you. Meaning someone's probably going to have to sacrifice their career plans, closeness to family, etc.
This is one of my favorite videos from you sir! It shows how the world is after all one tribe. Keep them coming sir!
aww...the way they look when others answers a question is pretty sweet
Quite a cute valentines special video! Great stuff
Awwh, I love how they are all very open to understanding each others cultures and learn each others language. That is so important! They seem so supportive to each other.
Fantastic video Takashii! To "wait" after the pandemic says a lot but the real test is living together and if you find it, bless! Lots of interesting responses and it makes for an educational video!
aww the first couple are adorable and so in love. great video Takashii, thanks as always.
Perfect to watch your videos always, love it coz lots of interesting topics you want to convey to all people regardless of their races
So awesome. I really like your videos!! Very neat to hear each individuals perspective
Cool jacket, Takashii! Looking great!
Wow these couples are the cutest, like all of them, I want to hug them all. So cute!!!
I wouldn't say any of them can be considered good looking lol
祝福をする ” 心（こころ）” が大切なのです❣❣❣
So lovely and sweet to hear these stories ❤
Love it. Great video.
As a person who is learning both Japanese and English, your videos are so helpful
This is one of the mooooost engaging and charming videos I have watched on TH-cam for loooooong time.
I´m sitting here with the BIGGEST smile on my face 🤍 They are all so cute and you can really see the love that they have for each other. The first woman was so freaking beautiful! I loved her makeup and that highlighter was on fire 😍 And the Japanese man from the third couple his English was insane! Living in Boston must have boost his English so much because his pronunciation was on point!
It is a good video. Each couple has its uniqueness and love. Such pretty good and memorable love stories should spread out.
I met my wife who is Japanese 4 years ago. Just like the couples in this video it was just before covid happened. Fortunately for us she was in Australia at the time so she ended up living with me before we even got married. This helped us get to know one another because we were around each other 24/7. My advice for couples is to make a big effort to learn about your partners culture. Don’t assume anything that the person is thinking and always be curious. Relationships are perceived differently depending on where you are born, so have that open communication. Always be patient with one another because it can be challenging but there is so much to gain by putting in your best efforts.
The second couples advice on not assuming and staying curious is great because it's true, what may seem really "normal" and obvious within your native culture may be totally alien 👽 to another 😂❤ staying very open and curious and in a learning mindset would be very helpful indeed!
OMG these couples are sooo wholesome!
Great video! Thanks!
This was beautiful. Very good!
Pretty amazing the first couple. Well done, fingers crossed for you!
Takashi, thank you for making this video- it is so interesting and beautiful to see Japanese youth moving forward with acceptance and love for people from other countries and cultures- thank you 🙏
Oh my ❤ just what I needed thanks takashii from Japan 🇯🇵 your awesome 🎉
All i can say is that's an awesome story from them... Now you know how they met
I really enjoy your videos!! Thank you ❤
For a new video idea maybes introduce us to the usual dating culture in japan. like interviewing Japanese and asking how many ex partner do they have, at what age do they start dating, maybe also about this confession thing... something like that would be interesting
Love this idea!
I love this channel so much!! 🙌🏼
The 1st and 3rd couples are my fav. They seem compatible. Hope it works out 😊
My introduction to international relations was on a project where we planned to demonstrate the conversion of coal to a liquid fuel usable in automobiles. Japan provided a team and Germany provided a team and the USA provided a team. I had to coordinate the preparation of estimates and budgets. Every company, much less country, has their own accepted standards and rules for putting together estimates. I found the experience VERY interesting and grew to really enjoy working with the Japanese and German team members! No romance but the lessons I learned to navigate the cultural and organizational differences undoubtedly helped me when I developed a contract management class at a NASA center (with employees from all over the earth), and when I married a Filipina 20 years later. At least that is what I reflected back to when listening to your interviews.
00:17:40 deu pra reconhecer que Kevin é brasileiro pelo estilo e pelo sotaque. 👊🏽
Takashi, great job interviewing people of all around the world. Tks!
Verdade, reconheci na hora
tbm, assim que ele apareceu já reconheci KKKKKK e é bem entendível tbm, 5 anos no Japão, é claro que o japonês dele seria melhor do que o inglês
Ele já apareceu em outros vídeos do Takashi.
I love your content, really. it is very nice, thanks for your job, Takashii.
nice one, Takashii!
Takashii san thank you very much these videos are super helpful.
Excellent! I wonder if You can find International Elder or Mature Couples who lives in Japan?!?!? (Is very Nice to see young Couples, but they are in The "Honey Moon" yet, but, can a long time international relation could settle down in Japan?
Oh those sweet couples! Pray they only change for the better along the years.
Good and interesting video. I like how you had a variety of couples such as Japanese woman and Japanese man. Good work Takashi! Keep it up!
Phenomenal video. Thank you!!!!
The first couple is just beautiful 😍
Bro the Brazilian guy has amazing interviews on Instagram, love him! thanks for this vid
25 years now AUS man and J Lady, wishing all these couples a happy life 😀👍
たかしさんの表情が昔よりすごく豊かになったなって感じます！
Another fantastic and interesting video
Amazing and Nice Content as always lodi 💪
First of all, great interviews and great questions 👍🏼.
All of the couples are great matches and open minded and not “typical” Japanese or foreigners, in my opinion.
Beautiful stories- thanks for sharing!
I love watching your videos.
Thank you so much for this video 🙏🏼 I am currently traveling in Japan and I would love to live here one day. I think Japanese boys are so cute 🙈☺️ so thank you for all those advices!!!
It's amazing when told us how they met each other.🎉
Very Nice programma. Thank you.
the second couple's timeline is almost identical to mine with my wife! We just got married in the US and are trying to adjust her visa status to a green card now.
All I can say as advice, is the same as what they are all saying. COMMUNICATE, COMMUNICATE, COMMUNICATE! because the cultural differences can cause issues fast without talking about your feelings. You need to show your 本音 really quickly.
This is inspiring!
My new favourite channel.
Im American and my girlfriend is Taiwanese. We met on a dating app of all places and honestly its been the best relationship ive ever had. Shes very caring and sweet. I have to say I feel very lucky to have her.
Each couple is so special and so amazing together. It's very inspiring to watch four young couples be so determined to be with each other, despite obstacles (be they global or local). Congratulations Takashi for being such a good interviewer, making such inspiring content, and finding such beautifully matched couples - and best wishes of health, prosperity and long life to all the couples.
Like most of your videos, this was interesting to watch and listen to these views.
I've been in a long distant relations and one technically was foreign - my living in the US and she lived in Canada. And yes, I did visit her there many times. But today we are no together. I do now live in Canada, but out west as she lived in eastern Canada. We broke up about 4 years prior to me relocating to western Canada. Anyway, long distance relationship are not easy, but obviously some work and some don't. At least you live and learn.
Those Facebook group chats are life savers!!!
if you had a podcast i would watch it literally every single day
Great to interview people on the street always fresh comment guranteed despite that hope everyone feel confortable (thinking about my own social anxiety…)
Just to put that into perspective, I do think the interviews were arranged beforehand and some of the interviewees are content creator themselves, random people on the street would definitely be less eloquent on average ;)
Good video Takashi 😁
I really enjoyed this video! 🫶🏼❤️🫰🏼
🥰Love this topic 😊
How was it? That was interesting! ❤
The Brazilian guy is so good-looking and it’s impressive he speaks atleast 3 languages and was trying to remember an English word through japanese
Please do upload more about international relationship💘🦋
I loved the part when the couples say what are the things that they like about each other.
Wishing all the couples the best, waxing strong
I am dating a Japanese guy but we are not in a relationship. Our dates are like once a month with little communication in between lolWe met in a city in America. He from Japan, I’m from another part of America we both came here for work. I’m new to this city, he has lived here on and off for over 5 yrs. I think it’s hard to understand him sometimes. This video reminded me that he might be asking me some questions with an intention that I never noticed. For example, he asked me more then once, how much I like this city and if I want to stay here and now I realize he might be trying to see if our paths align. One time we had a date and he had to leave for a meeting but I told him my best friend is coming to meet me. He asked me a lot about her and I just answered without thinking too much of why he’s asking. then he said “she seems really important to you” and then he waited for her to come so he can meet her even though he was late for his meeting.
Really enjoyed the interview with Sora the Troll, I thought it was a better than expected chemistry between Takashii and Sora.

Such interesting videos and interesting people. My advice to these adorable couples... have lots of babies!!
Cute video, greetings from New Zealand
Best thing I should have done and rarely ever did in my 34 years being with my Okinawan, Japanese wife/mother of my children? Walk outside of the house, or go to a different room as we were having a verbal arguing. She will never forget what she thinks you said, and you will never remember saying it. Best to give space and hugg in the morning.
I always tell my husband be careful what you say because you can never take it back, we never forget. 😅
First couple cool af 🎉❤
BRAAAZILLLLL!
Great video 🥢
13:39 カメラに向けたタカシの笑顔が可愛すぎw
"I found him online" as if he an item from Amazon. 😂
😂😂 she purchased him
