Since it wasn't explained in the video, the reason why you always see citrus fruits (called yuzu) floating in the bath, is due to a belief in Japan that the oils and vitamin C in yuzu is good for your skin and circulation. So it's a tradition to throw a few yuzu in when you're soaking in an open-air bath like these capybara are doing!
Japanese ppl don't usually put yuzu in the bath, though no one will be against it doing it on an ordinary day (since it has a wonderful smell) it's more of a special thing on the day of winter solstice. The tradition originated cuz the smell of Yuzu was believed to keep away demons. For the capybara bath, they're probably doing it since it adds some color and makes it even more relaxing to look at.
I will post here some flavor text from an mtg card called "Basking Capybara": "Even our most learned philosophers can only hope to approach the inner serenity of the humble capybara"
As someone from South America I can agree they're adorable and having them around lakes over here is super fun. The sad part is that here in the south of the americas there's a risk they have a flea with them that could kill you if infected. So no petting Capys when you're visiting over here, zoos outside south america should be fine though
Ah, my spirit animals 😂. One of the world's most amazing creatures. The personification of being perfectly friend-shaped. I can not get over these guys 🤣🤣😭😭😭💀 My people 👐 😂
Spotted one of these for the first time ever while in a remote outdoor setting and it was the ONLY reason I felt the area I was in was safe enough from other wildlife predators! #TeamCapybara ⭐️
Hey guys, just wanted to let you know you used an interview soundbite twice since I don't know if it was intentional. The first time at 2:27 and the second time at 3:11
Never seen a capybara in the zoo! More used to seeing the wandering around the city, or by the beach. Either in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and in many Brazilian cities! 😅
Still not tired of capybara content in 2024.
same (you probably can’t tell)
The true TH-cam meta
The capybaras are still pullin up today
Capybara and red pandas are straight clickbait for me.
@@beans00001nah man. Couldn’t tell at all
They are not animals, they are vibes, moods, and lifestyle, they are physical manifestations of relaxation .....
Yup, they are the embodiment of pure chill
True! Chill vibes always 🧘
It's amazing how peaceful they act when you consider how many predators they have to face in the wild.
They been seen chilling next to gators, though
@@halincadenza7165 the gators either ate already or are not hungry. Jaguars and anacondas are a different story
If Capybara was a person, he would probably still be chill when there is a fire or earthquake incoming.
@@krungkronch1947they are bad parents. They don’t watch their young 😅😅😅😅😅
Could it because they might have a bite that can tear of a finger?

Oh really? Oh gotta try it soon.
Pandas: chaotic good
Capybaras: lawful good
Grizzly bears: Chaotic evil
Polar bears: Lawful evil
@@AaronGeo facts 😂
Beryl back with GBS is just as relaxing to me as the Capybara!!! ❤
Wait, she's back at GBS?!
@@pqlasmdhryeiw8 dont you hear her ? :D
I am. Actually not aware that GBS is back. I just learnt about it today.
GBS can dedicate their entire life to Japan and still won't run out of fascinating contents
We love this comment 😂 Thank you! 🫶❤️
@@GreatBigStoryYOOO YOU GUYS STILL HAVE THE SAME VOICE OVER LADY AS 5 YeEARS AGO (I think?) WHEN I USED TO WATCH YOUR VIDEOS BACK THEN
@@casuals.3.19I believe the voice over lady is Beryl Shereshewsky, that now has her own youtube channel focus on foods.
Capybaras are a planetary treasure
Thank you for coming.
The capybara open-air bath open until April 7, 2024, so please come and see agein it.
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IT'S THEM
i am a simple man. i see professionally shot capybara content, i hit like.
Beryl is back on Great Big Story? I recognized her voice right away! Capybaras are so cute!
Those Capybara are the luckiest animals in the zoo. I envy them.
Utamaru definitely looks like that calm, collected dad who has a solution to all your teenage problems. Lovely creatures!
i love capybaras! i aspire to reach that level of chill and relaxation
Pfp checks out
I will post here some flavor text from an mtg card called "Basking Capybara":
"Even our most learned philosophers can only hope to approach the inner serenity of the humble capybara"
Me every time I see Capybara related videos: "OK I pull up"
Hop out at the after party
You have no idea how happy you just made me. Thank you Great Big Story for the great content! ❤
Masbro really loves the hot spring and the people. Really cute
I wish I could have this level of chill 😅
I think its just a universal mammal (and probably beyond) thing of "mmm hot water"
Capybara enjoying onsen. 🤣Now I have seen it all.

In Japan, even capybaras start taking hot baths 😂
I wish I can be like a capybara. Relaxed almost all the time :3
This is the cutest damn thing I've seen in a while. Fantastic stuff.
Capybaras: "We put our bottoms in this warm water. Now, it is ours." 😂
Its relaxing, calming and peaceful to watch Capybaras.
Ah, my spirit animals 😂. One of the world's most amazing creatures. The personification of being perfectly friend-shaped.
I can not get over these guys 🤣🤣😭😭😭💀
My people 👐 😂
This is the same park they used in the anime: Yuru Camp (Laid Back Camp). Ever since I saw that episode I always wanted to visit this park.
Fellow Shimarin fans also here 😂
I'm about to backpacking around Japan early January next year and this place will be on my travel bucket list
Capybara are my goal in life: chill with everyone, can actually sit and vibe in peace, can take over any lawn or grassy area I want.
Ohh to be a cappybara in a hot, relaxing bath in Japan 🥰
Spotted one of these for the first time ever while in a remote outdoor setting and it was the ONLY reason I felt the area I was in was safe enough from other wildlife predators! #TeamCapybara ⭐️
they do be chillin' 😊
i connected with beniten on spiritual level, chilling in its own space
I'm so glad this channel is back.
In fact, capybaras live in people's hearts.
Close your eyes and imagine an elegant capybara bathing in a hot spring.
Hey guys, just wanted to let you know you used an interview soundbite twice since I don't know if it was intentional. The first time at 2:27 and the second time at 3:11
When the world needed this channel, it returned
Ok they pull up
a bucket list item 🫶
So they are native to South America and these are in Japan. What a trip for these capybaras 😅
OK I PULL UP
Capybara are the most chilliest animals ever
Never seen a capybara in the zoo! More used to seeing the wandering around the city, or by the beach. Either in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and in many Brazilian cities! 😅
Awesome content as always! Thank you!
yeah, this is quite the great big story
Oh I was lost in their warmth too, it is a beautiful addiction watching them🤗🥰
There's something relaxing about professionally shot Capybaras taking a hot bath
1:34 dude's saying he likes to run, but the subtitles says he "loves sleeping" lol
Capybaras are the physical embodiment of the phrase “this is fine”
OMG, if they had a hot spring where you can go in with the Capybaras, that would be an enormous hit
It might probably exist.
Nice,Masbro stuffs
Capybara are one of my favorite animals. They're just so chill and relaxed.
Imagine how many problems can be solved just by bringing a few capybaras around.
See, guys? Masbro becoming TH-cam's meta!
Ngl I can agree with these rodents in that I love a hot bath.
I love capybaras. The biggest rodent in the world is the cutest rodent of all.
I must go there before death reaches me
I wish I was a capybara. Not worrying about taxes, pension or any human things.
Just relaxing, enjoying reality and being alive
As a capybara I approve this
Los nipones hicieron populares al capibara,al picozapato ,.. ❤
Great Big Story is back? Since when? Why am I only aware of it now? 😮😮
That man has the best most fulfilling job in the world!!!😊😊😄
OK I PULL UP🔥🔥
Coconut Doggy!!!!
OK I PULL UP 🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️
I want to be as chill and as unbothered as capybara
c a p y b a r a ! !
3.02 so funny 😂
I am delighted to learn that capybaras have had hot tubs since before I was born 😊
Ok, i pull up 😁😁
I wish someone would prepare warm bath for me every day and bring me food :)
Had to pull up the vid soon as I saw
BERYL!!! YAY, you are back here!!
I LOVE CAPYS
Finally, the best animal gets its own video!
I wonder if the hot spring has a livestream? I'm in the USA, and I wouldn't mind seeing Japan's capybaras soaking 😁
When they pull up at the after party:
I somehow like this animals. 🍊🍊🍊🥱🫢🤭😊
Anyone who wanna visit there, I'd recommend taking public bath in Shizuoka as well. Shizuoka is at the foot of Mt Fuji, which is still alive.
what can I say, I’m a fan.
So cute.
Beryl you’re not fooling no one. It’s good to hear your voice.
oh, to be a capybara in japan
So you're telling me this giant rat, wants to sit in the hot bath for hours on end, just to enjoy some relaxation time...
He's just like me fr fr
Capybara and Beryl! 💓
I can understand the passion Japanese people have towards capybara, because both of them love hot spring 温泉（on sen). 😂😂😂😂😂
I love capybaras...as carpincho gloves 🙂
They are darling- like giant gerbils!!
C A P Y B A R A !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yuge is a mood
He pulls up.
First comment
COCONUT DOGGY
if they were to stream this for 10 hours a day on twitch I bet they would made a lot of money I'd be watching it here and there for sure
Hearing Beryls voice, I was concerned we were going to watch a capy recipe video.
Capybara vids are my favorites
Thanks from coming back GBS!
Amazing video as always GBS!
I love the cappy blappies
Adorable ❤
