I Became Japan's WORST Rickshaw Girl..
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ธ.ค. 2024
- Three years ago, I first encountered rickshaw girls in Asakusa, and I was amazed by how these cheerful, energetic women could pull heavy rickshaws through the busy streets! It left me wondering: what makes them so happy and motivated? Why do they choose this unique job? And what does it take to be a rickshaw girl in Asakusa?
Curious to learn more, I reached out to my friend Misa, an experienced rickshaw driver. She not only taught me how to pull a rickshaw but also shared the essential techniques and the powerful mindset behind being a successful rickshaw driver.
To be honest, I wasn’t great at it (actually, I was the worst 😅), but it was such an eye-opening experience! If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to step into the shoes of a rickshaw girl, this video is for you. I hope you enjoy it! 😍

Thank you so much for watching!🐣💓
Do you think you can pull a rickshaw too? Why or why not? Let me know your thoughts!!😆🌟
Also..special thanks to Misa chan to make this incredible experience happen! Arigato!!💕
AriPiyo Yuka-chan & Misa-chan! Thank you for your hard work! Otsukaresama deshita おつかれさまでした🙏🥰
I might be able to pull a rickshaw, but I would be very nervous with all the responsibility (and all the traffic!)🤭
@@mottokittokatto Thank you KittoKatto! OtsukaresamadesuExact the same things I was worried about!
yes! yabai! @@With_Me_JAPAN
I will shout words of encouragement at you, as you pull me around.👍 (I will also vigorously shake Wand Ducky at you, if you start to slow down)🐥
Thanks Yuka Chan for this amazing Piyo video. I think you did a amazing job おつかれさまでした🙏 . I think i could pull this of. with a little help from a pro like Misa chan
But the traffic scars me a lot.
they make it look easy than it really is. need to grab the handle properly, the right height, the right posture, being mindful of the traffic and passenger. lots of work. you girls are strong indeed!
They are very strong and well trained!
Rickshaw drivers like Misa make it look easy, with their strength and skill. Much respect to them! Thankyou Yuka chan!
Indeed! She does everything with her great smile but it was actually very difficult! Thank you John
Great to see you fulfilled your dream and had fun with Misa's assistance. But I don't think you will be applying for a job anytime soon😄
Walking an alpaca 🦙 now a rickshaw. What amazing surprise next? :D
Hehe always fun to do new things! I'll ask piyo members about new challenge!
This is one of my favorite videos! Misa is the 4th snack-sister! ( Miki is the 5th snack-sister! ) 🥰
You did really good for your first time! Yes, it must be harder than it looks. Lots of responsibility to drive safely.
Misa chan makes it look easy, she is a pro! She is a great teacher too! I really enjoyed this video. 😇🙏🏼
Thank you so much! Yes exactly she makes it look easy. It was not easy at all😆
Collaboration is brilliant! You couldn’t have chosen more of a better rickshaw in Japan! haha . cutest rickshaw celebrity. what a sweetheart, you both. I truly can’t wait.
Thank you PD! Had a great time with Misa chan!
😆Funny and cute thumbnail. Looking forward to the video.😄
Thank you for joining the premier Pag chan!
Fantastic video Yuka!!!
This is an amazing look into the life of a Rickshaw driver and how they train to be safe and professional!
MISA is a great instructor!!! 👍
Thank you for sharing this experience! 👏👏👏
💪💪YUKA STRONG!!! 💪💪
Thank you very much John Hugo! She was indeed a great instructor 😍
2 Japanese women showing the world about Rickshaws, priceless ❤❤❤
That's 3am for me. I will do my best to show up, but if I miss it, I will catch the replay for sure. Love the thumbnail! Thanks Yuka!
Thank you so much for staying up late to catch it terebibae!
@@With_Me_JAPAN You are always worth it! Thanks for always making great content and for making us smile!
Hi YUka, I have a lot of respect for the Rickshaw drivers at Tokyo Rickshaw, and it's been interesting to see how their lives are being shown to a broader audience. I hope you weren't feeling too sore after the rickshaw instructions. I admire you for taking the task on, though. Take care.
Thank you Robert! The training was hard but it turned out to be a great experience!
Most important things: 1 drive safely, 2 drive safely, 3 drive safely, 4 drive safely, 5 hospitality.
You looked excited and terrified at the same time. I laughed when Misa said "I'm... scared" 😂
The rickshaw girls clearly make it look easier than it is. Thanks for a really fun video, Yuka.
Thank you Steve! Haha yea I laughed at the scene too😂Indeed the rickshaw drivers make it look very easy!😍
Great collaboration with Misa. She is a great woman. You did well for your first day pulling a rickshaw, so don't be hard on yourself. Besides, you've done what most of us haven't by pulling a rickshaw. Great video and always good to see other friendly faces pop up in videos!
Thank you so much 🤗
Awesome thumbnail! can't wait to see it 😁
Arigato solo!
Yuka, have a wonderful Sunday. I enjoyed your beautiful video. First let's talk about Misa. Misa has her own TH-cam channel. I follow every video of Misa. She is very talented and funny girl. Now let's talk about you. I understand very well that you were having trouble. But you also have good control. If the teacher is good, the student will be good. Your hand seems to be pain. Yes, pain is very normal. Misa is a girl and she is a rickshaw driver, so I respect Misa a lot. It's very true. Please rest properly and you'll get soon recover. Absolutely amazing video. Thank you so much from depth of my heart for this beautiful video. Looking forward to see your next video. Always stay safe, healthy and happy. Please take good care of yourself. 🐥🐥
Indeed Misa is very talented! Thank you for watching
This was a very nice and cute video. Yes it shows that rickshaw pulling is an art. Thank you for the fun and cute video.😃🥰
Thank you Pag chan! Indeed it is an art
hello Yuka and cute Misa , this was a really interesting video , just shows how much hard work it is , Misa is a very good instructor, this was so much fun , really well done and thank you both 😊😍
Thank you Davie! Yea she taught me very well
Misa makes it look so easy. She’s strong
It was a great video
Thank you!😍
Rickshaw looks easy but the fact is you really need wonderful technical to pull at least 250KG rickshaw to run a at least 30minutes tour in Asakusa. I really respect you are brave to do it 👍
Thank you!🥰
Fun video. She was so surprised you had enough. That reaction was a little funny/cute in a nice way.
Hehe I agree! She was so cute
Yay! Thankyou for the dramatic thumbnail!
Haha thank you! It really describes how the training went
😂😂wow Yukapiyo Nakamoto Chan Tanoshimi Dane for this interesting and Sugoi premiere video. I think you can do it. Igaito gambariyasan Yukapiyo Nakamoto Chan 🦆🔥 Piyo Piyo Quack Quack and I think Misa Chan will have fun with you and hai she is a kawaii rickshaw girl 🤟🔥 Kiotsukete Ne
Thank you Reaper!
Good job and thanks for this sweet video.
Thank you too!😍
Balance seems to be very important in rickshaw operation. A great deal of skill and finesse is required. If I were Yuka-chan's passenger, I would be both amused and terrified.🤪 So over-all, an exciting ride!
Yes you are right! To keep the balance was the hardest but the most important thing! Thank you for watching
Thank you for your video. This video should be a suggested training video for foreigners who want to watch the many rickshaw tour videos that are available. Although they make it look easy, your video showed me that it is even harder than I thought it was. And the drivers do that over and over for their customers. Even when it is hot, when it is cold, when it is raining and always with a bright smile. Thank you again, and your wonderful friend, (and the brave camerawoman too.!)
Thank you so much for your kind comment!😍
I really enjoyed this video! You two are absolutely adorable!! lol
Thank you so much!!😍
It’s fantastic! Yuka happy you enjoyed it watching from 🇨🇦
You did your best and misa-Chan was a great teacher patient and understanding. I’m subscribed to her channel she’s a sweetheart
Glad to hear that! Thank you😍
@@With_Me_JAPAN you are welcome can’t wait to see what you got coming out next
That was fun video, Yuka chan and much respect to Misa chan. Otsukaresama deshita! 💯❤👍
Arigato skip!😍
A great video. A special person doing the job. You did a wonderful job. More people should have the dedicated to do this job. You are a stunning beautiful lady
Thank you so much!
What a lovely video! Two beautiful girls, perfect English and very funny! Misato san is very famous now and everybody loves her. ❤ She is good at Public Relations and is a good teacher!
Thank you so much 😍
those cute Laughters and giggles are very contagious and nice to hear
Thank you!🥰
Thank you both for the video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 keep practicing stay strong and you might get to be as good as her someday
Thank you!😍
@@With_Me_JAPAN 👍🏻
Wow! That was very brave of you Ms ✨Yuka-san💫. 👍
You always put in the hard work to bring us great content as always. Hopefully see you soon in Tokyo! 🇯🇵
Arigato Gozaimasu! ☺️
Love & Peace 💙✌️
From the UK. 🇬🇧
Thank you so much!😍
Very entertaining video, but I think the title is misleading. I think you actually did very well as a rickshaw driver! I really like your videos and have watched many of them more than once (for example the masterpieces Sunrise Express and temLab Planets). It will be interesting to see what is next on your bucket list!
So kind of you! I’m glad you have watched my videos more than once😍
When i 1st saw rickshaw drivers online in Japan i was surprised it wasnt like other countries since Japan has so much tech. Seeing Yuka do this was informative & it must be hard doing this on hot days & smiling. Maybe in the future theyll at least have the driver in a bicycle like they do in usa
Had fun watching this & cant wait for future videos. Kudos to Jp rickshaw's
Thank you! It must be hard in hot summer indeed 😳
Thanks!🏃♀️🐥
AriPiyo! >piyo< 🐤
Aripiyo Anthony!
Yuka and Misa in the same video..wonderful 😀 😊. Yuka you did well for the first time. I think you let your fear get the better of you at least once :) Yes , i am very confident I could pull a rickshaw 😁. Live confidently and peacefully
Thank you! Wow you are confident 😆
sugoiii nee~ looks fun! yuka :D imagine yuka stopping her rickshaw halfway to see some cute helicopter duckies along the way 😂😂
Haha I should have brought helicopter ducky!
Yukaaa ahaha I love the entrance and Misa's reaction XD In 4 years she became a manager! WHat a succes
and hardwork! Whoaa we are at the headquarter! 100 for now! XD You are the the fittest rickshaw girl btw!
Thank you coffee! Haha after watching how I did in the video I feel like I can do better to be honest!😆
YOu are very very weclome! I knew that!! XD That is the spirit! So I can't wait for part II then :O
Oh, I can’t wait to see this one…😂
I may laugh but it won’t be at you, it’ll be with you!😊
Haha did you laugh?
@@With_Me_JAPAN Several times!
Thank you for that…a little honest laughter can help when things are dark.
Thank you for making this video! I really enjoyed it.🙏🏻
SMILE is Misa Chan's Middle Name...☺️
When I first visited Japan many many years ago, I was surprised to see young people pulling rickshaws in tourist's areas ...😮 Then later on when I realised there were girls pulling them and one as cute and inspiring as Misa chan... I was pretty dumbfounded... 😲 She surely makes Asakusa... or Japan... an even better place. 😊🍡🇯🇵
Thank you! Yea the rickshaw girls are amazing and they promote Asakusa well😍
Agreed! And Misa chan is the Best! 😊🇯🇵🍡
Looks like you had fun 👏 👏 👏 im so happy for you ❤
It was! Thank you😍
it looks like hard work, thanks for showing us the tricks 😆
It was! Thank you for watching 😍
Hi Yuka, Thank you for the video. I realized how hard💪it would be to pull the richshaw.
Thank you so much Pika C😍!! Indeed it was very hard!
Sensei !!!! Fun video . The best was 5:14 - 5:20 , three beautiful ladies in the same scene ! 😉
Haha gomishushusha was elegantly showing up ne! Thank you trashman😍
Great job ❤❤❤❤
Thank you!😍
I watched this again, and all kidding aside, I was impressed. You took on a new and challenging task, and recorded it for hundreds or thousands to see. That took guts. You went in cold, with no prior training and you tried your best. I disagree, you're not the worst driver. That title belongs to the driver that has the skills, but no longer cares about the job they do. You do care, although you hide disappointment well, you care about your work, and in time the skill will come, but you'll never be the worst. You've made that impossible.
Wow thank you so much for your thoughtful comment Anthony🥰It means a lot and yes if I have another chance I want you to practice it again!
Yuka-chan you are amazing 😍 Ste 😍
Arigato Steve!😍
Everything you ever wanted to know about rickshaw drivers but were afraid to ask. Nice one.
Thank you😍
Good job camera man!
Kawaii video. I think you should tag Misa chan's youtube on the title to help promote this video.
Thank you Aryo for your advice! I tagged her in the description
This video was real favorit of mein. I think you did a great job Yuka you hade a very professional teacher in Misa Chan.
you too look goreous together 💓
Thank you so much! Indeed Misa chan is a great teacher😍
Fun video 😂, are you really just 5'0 tall? I saw Misa-chan in Asakusa and I though she was tall, maybe 5''5 or 5'6 🤔 you two look like the same height in the video
Thank you 😍Yea I’m smaller than her!
1st video of 2024 riding rickshaw.Future rickshaw travel agency driver Yuka-san
Haha Thank you!😍
😻😻
👋- HI YUKA - you did a good job for a first timer - so kawaii
Thanks 😆!!
no prob 👍
Misa is ❤❤❤
Apologies for missing the Saturday livestream. I was in hospital having emergency surgery.
Oh no are you ok Steven? I am glad you made it to today's premier!!
@@With_Me_JAPAN I had an infected abscess on my face. I may need a little plastic surgery in future. So I am even uglier than before! Hahahaha!
If there was an Oscar for best thumbnail you would win. 😅
Haha thank you! Your comment put a big smile on my face 😍
I didn't know the bar had to be pushed down that low in order for the passengers to not lean back and for the driver to go forward. It is a perspective not seen from the passenger's pov. Even seeing drivers from outside view doesn't show it. It must have been awkward to hunch down forward to almost falling down in order to drive the rickshaw.
Thank you! Yea I learned a lot through the training😍
Such lovely demeanours.
Thank you!😍
Great video. What are the names of the different clothing you had to wear?
I think it’s called hanten!
welp.. thats the most adorable thing I've seen all day
Haha glad you enjoyed it!😍
Thank you!!!
Thank you too!🥰
yay, its misa.
Good morning all. I think i could do it, but I might be nervous if there were passengers, ....until I had some experience with cars around.
I think your thoughts are similar to me!
Thx for the video
Great video Yuka-Chan If I was to become a Rickshaw driver, I would strap a Carriage to an ATV & drive it myself
Thank you! Sounds like a great plan 😍
@@With_Me_JAPAN Indeed
13:28 😮😁
Thank you for watching!
I would like to Be Yuka's Rickshaw Driver I'll drive Yuka and you can sit back and enjoy the ride. Good job 😎
Thank you for watching!
Misa: "hm... can u speak japanese😂"
I will pay JPY10000 for you to become my rickshaw driver, 中本 さん.
At least you were still a cute Rickshaw girl
Haha thank you! Need to be professional like Misa!
So cute 🥰
😊
Aqui no Brasil a pessoa seria chamado de cavalo.
🤗Olá🇧🇷
Você nasceu no Japão?
Yes!
@@With_Me_JAPAN 👍obrigado,fala inglês muito bem.
You are both lovely and charming 😍😍😍❤❤❤
Not bad at all😅🐥. I wonder if most rickshaw drivers are working out in the gym?? Need strength to able to drive all day long.
I think the job is the gym! Some jobs are physical, so you don't need to go to a gym.
Thank you! I wonder if too. They need stamina too😳
I think i couldn't because i am too tall and going down all the time so often - i couldn't stand it 😅....
Yes keeping the balance was very difficult!😂
❤❤
12:45😅
🤩✨✨💖
i look so cute😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Ha ha. 안녕 친구
Japan still has a tradition of human-pulled carts.
Enjoyed that, nearly done it but she seemed to have you lower than she was doing it
Thank you!😍
I don't think Yuka has the right "body frame" for this kind of work, lol. You might also develop a very sore back from stooping over so much..
Haha yea I had sore on my legs the next day!😂
😂😂😂😂 🇧🇷❤️🇯🇵
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
いいえ、私はむしろ乗りたいです。❤
😂😭
omg 😅😅😅
