@Itanchiro Do you mean a person who impersonates unusual, unique, interesting side characters (character actor), a person who draws illustrations of characters from existing comics (fan-art cartoonist or fanfic comic book artist), or a person who draws humerous exaggerated portraits of people (caricature artist)? Maybe you mean something else?
@@itanchiro5524 so, you draw the concept art for characters in games or animated shows, which animators use as reference when they animate said characters? I've heard that being called character design, or chara-deza for short. That's amazing!
Very interesting. I would like to ask for a video like this with male versions of different traditional clothings. I got a Yukata from my visit in Japan, but I am highly interested in the clothings you (Shogo-san) were wearing in this video for example.
I will definitely make a video about that soon too! Unlike Tomoko and Harumi i’ve never received proper training before, but I’m hoping to go next summer!
As an artist, I always end up struggling when trying to draw Kimono or Yukata properly. With your video you show exactly, what the difference is between both of them and I'm absolutely grateful, that you Shogo-san, covered this topic with lovely Tomoko-san and Harumi-san! Thank you so much for your amazing and educational videos! Warm greetings from Germany :)
I really like the yukata worn in kimono style. It's worn like a kimono so it has the beauties and style of it which I think is really pretty as well as the colorful designs of Yukata. It's probably easier to move in too so I could say that would be my "ideal" kimono if I were to wear it one day. Thank you so much for the video, Shogo.
You should check out wearing hakama. It's not as iconic, but it's relatively practical compared to formal kimono. Taisho-era school girls wore it because of that.
Thank you very much to Shogo-san, Tomoko-san, and Harumi-san for making this video! This is immensely helpful for people drawing stuff related to Japanese culture.
I went to Japan in 2019 and rented a kimono for a day, I miss it so much. At first I was a bit worried that I would feel a bit uncomfortable wearing it the whole day but it was actually so comfy and warm! I wish I could do it again someday.
Extremely interesting! I’m a culture junkie and I love learning about other countries and their customs, Japan being one of the top countries I love learning about. Thank you for the lesson!!
I see I'm not the only one that loves different cultures. Japan is so FASCINATING! I especially love the clothing. I always wondered how they tied the wide belt in the back without help.
So glad I watched this! I have plans to crochet (かぎ針編み) a koi scale pattern kimono and there was loads of info that will help with measuring the pieces to fit me perfectly - like all the "length of index finger" measurements. I'm 6' tall so following a pattern for an average woman's kimono size would probably look a little small on me. I tried searching google in both English and Japanese to see if anyone else had crocheted a kimono before but could only find stuff like amigurumi geisha, which is not exactly the same scale as a full adult size piece. It's going to be a fun challenge!
Are you crocheting smaller pieces and attaching it later (similar to the construction of an actual kimono), or crocheting a one-piece? Any which way you go, I wish you all the best in your adventure! 💪👍
@@munirahbakar4123 I'm working it from the bottom up in mosaic crochet. The body is one piece and sleeves are separate. It's almost done so I'm super excited! Thanks for the wishes :)
So amazing! Just getting dressed is an art form. I was under the impression that it took the help of another person to get dressed in kimono. It was fascinating to watch them do it all by themselves.
This was amazing! I knew the differences in yukata and kimono, but it’s nice seeing how they are put on, and the differences in the fabrics and designs. This was fun to watch. :)
I really like the yukata in kimono style. Sadly, because of a handicap on my foot, I can't wear socks... Neither the western ones. Thanks for this awesome video and I really love, how you wife and her friend, are answering in Japanese. Beautiful explanation
I enjoyed this video so much! When I was an exchange student in Japan I had the opportunity to wear a kimono and it was amazing to see upclose the craft of putting on a kimono and obi. It felt amazing and so luxurious. Although it is quite tight, it felt very comfortable and cozy. I also have 3 yukatas that were gifted to me and I feel sad that I barely have an opportunity to use them. Thank you so much for your content!
i'm so glad i found this video. i've been searching high and low on ways to tie an obi because mine is a bit short and stiff.. karuta musubi is perfect! simple and not too complicated. thank you!
The everyday things such as cooking, fashion and use of household items tells us so much about a culture and where it came from. Thank you for teaching this.
Just watching this right now I Love how you flick between 2 different languages so effortlessly!!! (I meant to say the two of you, Harumi and Shogo, and it appears effortless)
I'm a Japanese culture fan, your channel is gold... No... Diamond, emerald, Ruby... What's the most expensive thing in the world? Well, that's what your channel is, Shogo-san. どうもありがとうございます！
i'm a very big fan of this channel, thank you for teaching us so much in such an engaging and easy to follow format. if possible, i would like to see your take on the history of the ainu and other indigenous peoples, as well as their current standing in japan. many people say they are all dead civilizations but they are still around. thank you for wonderful content as always !!
Very informative video. Using the proper terms and explaining the when, where, and how of Yukata and Kimono was helpful as the proper ritual of dressing was shown. The fabrics are so beautiful! Thank you everyone!
La verdad nunca había pensado que hubiera una diferencia entre los dos pero resulta que si la hay. Gracias por mostrarnos y gracias por compartir su hermosa cultura
I always thought kimono are like robe you put on top but now i am just amazed how many steps it actually takes to wear it. It looks stunning both the dress.
I used to watch my sobo put on her kimono. She was traditional always wore kimoni when she went out in public. At home when cleaning she would sometimes wear pants and a shirt but very rarely. Sometimes when my girls want to put on their yukata or kimono having watched sobo helped a lot. Thank you for this video it reminded me of a few things that I have forgotten.
I wish I had everything needed to wear my kimono. Its an awase kimono made of cotton. I found it in a thrift store for $2, but was never able to find the other parts to properly wear it. I improvise and it kinda works...
I'm in a similar situation with the wool men's kimono and Nagoya obi that I found at a second-hand store. I decided to wear them to an anime club meeting one time and did some research on how to wear them ( which is how I found out it was a men's kimono,) and wound up wearing a turtleneck and leggings under it to protect it from skin oil, and decided to go for an index finger length fold like in the video with a random peice of cord I had lying around. This did result in the hem being waaay higher than ankle or floor length since men's kimonos don't have extra length for folding, but I thought it looked nicer with the obi that way, and it made it easier to run in (which I needed to do to be on time to one of my classes.) The whole outfit was basically a pile of kimom blasphemy, but it wasn't for a formal event or anything, so it worked. Took me ages to get the tie the obi right though...
Thank you Shogo ,Harumi and Tomoko!! Harumi and Tomoko looked stunning and Harumi's explanation of the different ranks made perfect sense. As a person from the UK I would not wear a tee shirt to a wedding or a nice restaurant.
I know people say this a lot and it's lost it's meaning, but I legit stopped washing dishes to better watch this video as soon as I saw it. I dropped everything and came as soon as I heard.
I’m a fashion designer and I am creating a collection inspired by Japanese culture. And what are your thoughts on designers using Japanese styles??? Harumi’s yukata is beautiful!!!!
Hi. You might check out the Greek clothing designers "Eating the Goober'. I love their clothing and it has a Japanese esthetic. They have a website in English.
Ladies, you both look Stunning! Thanks to both of you for your explanations; it helps us understand the details and admire them with a greater appreciation.
I would love to see videos like this about common masculine traditional japanese clothing! I know what feels like SO MUCH about feminine wear, but if I were to try and visit, I would have NO idea where to start for even the names!
For most of the year in Japan, the Kimono is worn. The Yukata is only worn during the warm, humid months. Even for the summer, the Yukata is not approprate for certain functions, and a summer Kimono is expected to be worn.

Loved this video! I have a yukata and a kimono and I am trying to learn how to wear them. I understand that Yukata, but this video massively helped my understanding of Kimono and Yukata in Kimono style? Great idea! Thank you so much! ❤
I was trying to learn more about yukatas and kimonos since I was buying one for the summer festivals. This is a great video for people that want to learn more about it. Do you have a video on how to tie the obi differently? Maybe have a video on different obi knots/bows? A series would be really helpful for us that are learning at home how to wear one. Just an idea, but either way, this was a great video! 👘 ❤
I lived in Japan for awhile ...the only time I had a super beautiful Kimono was as a child...it was so beautiful with super long sleeves...later as an adult when I returned to Japan I only had Yukatas...but I was able to pick out stunning Yakata material that was gray with little printed arrows in the material and a pink obi to go with it...
Totally informative and fascinating in so many ways! Please do a video about the traditional clothing worn by rural people and average Japanese people in the past?
Im excited! I got a vintage Yukata to wear to the Japanese festival in September. I'm wanting to learn how to wear it properly to honor such an amazing culture.
I really like this video, is right on point, giving the right amount of information in a clear manner so anyone can understand and follow easily. Great job 👏
This video Is sooo interesting! I'm trying to create miniature kimono for my dolls collection and I want it to be realistic, I'm learning a lot from this video and the one where you are waiting the male yukata!
I really like drawing Kimono, so this is literally the best video to learn the differences and how to properly draw them, they're so pretty! I really want to try a kimono someday.
Thank you for all the wonderful videos you make! I love learning about different cultures and Japan is my ULTIMATE FAVORITE!!! The Clothing is so beautiful!! I always wondered how the puffy, wide belt in the back was tied. I thought it required two people. Does the Kimono and the Yukata have pockets inside the sleeves? Or is it a trick they use in the movies? I LOVE the wide variety of subjects you choose to make your video's. Learning new Vocabulary, Apartment Life ( especially the Squat Toilet), with my balance being so bad, I would have fallen in so many times that I wouldn't need a shower, the Rules of Society, Everyday Living, the Rules of using Chopsticks, Meals, BENTO BOXES and RAMEN NOODLES!!!!!!!!! (Mmmm!!!!) There's just so much to love. I have a question for you. I play "Animal Crossing" on Nintendo Switch and was given a "Kotatsu," what is it and is it still used today? I just want to give you and TH-cam a huge thanks for allowing me to travel and experience new cultures without leaving my home. Bless you all.
17:39 Sunday, 27 March 2022 Thank you very much to Shogo-san, Harumi-san & Tomoko-san, and to the photographers. This was fascinating. Love & respect from Ames, Iowa, U.S.A.
I want to wear a yukata so bad. (A kimono too but i understand its much more difficult and i would prolly enjoy yukata) but in the us there are quite a few people who think if ur not Japanese u cant wear or do mostly anything thats feom japan (or any other culture u arent.) Im honestly going to try and get one at some point and try my best to wear it properly. Love these videos and i hope ur well
Hi, Shogo-san, thanks for the interesting video. I have a few questions though 1. If you can wear yukata in kimono style, does it still count on the same level of "formalness" as an average yukata or could it be interchangable with Tsumugi/Momen? 2. How can you tell the difference between Hitoe and Yukata on first sight? Aside from yukata being from thinner materials, could you distinguish them from patterns, colours or something else entirely? Thank you! :)
you can increase visual ranking but it is still yukata based on the material it is made out of, usually its never silk! even cotton komon may have differences such as how thin it is or the sleeves. even if the other ranked kimonos are made of silk, you would tell the difference through the pattern! komon have simple patterns that repeat throughout the kimono. iromuji is kimono with no pattern. tsukesage is light patterns typically on the bottom of the komono and on the sleeves. homongi has more ornate patterns that dont repeat. furisode the biggest difference is that the sleeves are way longer. wedding wear kimono is totally different too and have a thick lining at the bottom so it can be draped on the floor. there are many visual and foundational differences between the types of kimono to be able to tell them apart, but in the end its easiest to tell thru pattern and materials 😊
I love your videos so much. I have already learned so much and I only subscribed to your channel on sunday. Please keep up the fantastic work. Also really like the "Table of Contents" and "Summaries" you put into your videos! They are really helpful.
Please shogo i beg you do a video explaining the full steps of how to preform a traditional tea ceremony i just got tested positive and that would really help.
I'm sorry, could you one day tell more about this Taisho-era way of dressing, how they wore this yukata/kimono with hakama? And can it be worn today like this too or would it be seen like wearing a 19th century gown while doing shopping?
If you haven't already done this idea could you please make a video out of it? So my questions are why and how did samurai's exist, and why don't they exist anymore? (Sorry for bad English)
For character artists like me, this video is gold!
What is a character artist?
@Itanchiro
Do you mean a person who impersonates unusual, unique, interesting side characters (character actor), a person who draws illustrations of characters from existing comics (fan-art cartoonist or fanfic comic book artist), or a person who draws humerous exaggerated portraits of people (caricature artist)?
Maybe you mean something else?
@@AnnaMorimoto I mean concept character artist - those who create new characters
@@itanchiro5524 so, you draw the concept art for characters in games or animated shows, which animators use as reference when they animate said characters? I've heard that being called character design, or chara-deza for short. That's amazing!
@@AnnaMorimoto well I am not professional/official yet, but I've already had projects :D
Very interesting. I would like to ask for a video like this with male versions of different traditional clothings. I got a Yukata from my visit in Japan, but I am highly interested in the clothings you (Shogo-san) were wearing in this video for example.
Id like that too
I will definitely make a video about that soon too! Unlike Tomoko and Harumi i’ve never received proper training before, but I’m hoping to go next summer!
@@LetsaskShogo for no proper training, your clothing always looks pretty neat, I must say 👌

I tried searching google in both English and Japanese to see if anyone else had crocheted a kimono before but could only find stuff like amigurumi geisha, which is not exactly the same scale as a full adult size piece. It's going to be a fun challenge!

You asked to say which was better - we aren’t sure which to say, except great job- seeing the different types is very helpful and informative.

Thank you so much for this. I love the fact that you can wear yukata in kimono style now. I have til now worn my ro kimono as I have only 2 yukata.
Very cool video, Shogo :) and I love Harumi's yukata, it has a beautiful design and she looks lovely
Beautiful. Miss my Yukata and occasionally Kimono day. Thanks for sharing
This helped my daughter so much. She wants to wear yukata the cherry festival here in Texas
Both of them look so happy while showing what they have learned. Thanks for the info and passion and joy!

Now after knowing the difference, i think i like the yukata more than the popular kimono, looks easier to put on and from what i read, more breathable
For most of the year in Japan, the Kimono is worn. The Yukata is only worn during the warm, humid months. Even for the summer, the Yukata is not approprate for certain functions, and a summer Kimono is expected to be worn.

I lived in Japan for awhile ...the only time I had a super beautiful Kimono was as a child...it was so beautiful with super long sleeves...later as an adult when I returned to Japan I only had Yukatas...but I was able to pick out stunning Yakata material that was gray with little printed arrows in the material and a pink obi to go with it...
The long sleeved Kimono,furisode, are only worn by young, unmarried girls.
Thank you a lot for this video! Now I understand a little bit more traditional clothes of Japan!
I've always been curious about the different types of kimono and all procedures to wear them and this video explains everything so well!
Super fun and informative, a delightful combo 💚
22:00 - That's what a happy Japanese looks like, he's in "raspberry")))
Thank you.
Totally informative and fascinating in so many ways! Please do a video about the traditional clothing worn by rural people and average Japanese people in the past?
Im excited! I got a vintage Yukata to wear to the Japanese festival in September. I'm wanting to learn how to wear it properly to honor such an amazing culture.
With this video, I absolutely got back my desire of owning and wearing a yukata + geta + cute obi!
I really like this video, is right on point, giving the right amount of information in a clear manner so anyone can understand and follow easily. Great job 👏
Excellent presentation! I really enjoy learning more and more about everything Japanese .
This video Is sooo interesting! I'm trying to create miniature kimono for my dolls collection and I want it to be realistic, I'm learning a lot from this video and the one where you are waiting the male yukata!
Thank you, I think yukata looks more comfortable, but kimono looks fancier to go out in
I really like drawing Kimono, so this is literally the best video to learn the differences and how to properly draw them, they're so pretty! I really want to try a kimono someday.
Harumi and Tomoko are both so beautiful
🌸This video is soo perfect, cuz it help a lot to understand the difference between one and other.🌸
So relaxing to watch ♥
I do cosplay, and one of the characters I want to dress up as wears a Yukata. These videos are very helpful, thank you so much!
Thank you for this information packed and practical video with tons of details and wonderful illustrations with Texas :)
Thank you for all the wonderful videos you make! I love learning about different cultures and Japan is my ULTIMATE FAVORITE!!! The Clothing is so beautiful!! I always wondered how the puffy, wide belt in the back was tied. I thought it required two people. Does the Kimono and the Yukata have pockets inside the sleeves? Or is it a trick they use in the movies?
I LOVE the wide variety of subjects you choose to make your video's. Learning new Vocabulary, Apartment Life ( especially the Squat Toilet), with my balance being so bad, I would have fallen in so many times that I wouldn't need a shower, the Rules of Society, Everyday Living, the Rules of using Chopsticks, Meals, BENTO BOXES and RAMEN NOODLES!!!!!!!!! (Mmmm!!!!) There's just so much to love. I have a question for you. I play "Animal Crossing" on Nintendo Switch and was given a "Kotatsu," what is it and is it still used today?
I just want to give you and TH-cam a huge thanks for allowing me to travel and experience new cultures without leaving my home. Bless you all.
This information is worth gold!
........ I want both. My inner 10 year old is screaming. Shes so excited. These are stunning and so cool in how they are worn. I love it so much.
I really like that Taisho era style of wearing the yukata with hakama.

Thank you very much to Shogo-san, Harumi-san & Tomoko-san, and to the photographers.
This was fascinating.
Love & respect from Ames, Iowa, U.S.A.
Both are lovely and explain well. Yukata and Kimono it's like a language on its own, amazing and beautiful 😍❤.
This video is so informative and helpful and the ‘’Tanjiro Refrence‘’was funny for some reason🌺🌺🌺
Artists are thanking you for this video
Great video as always. A men's version of this would be great. I know standalone video might be hard, but would be interesting.
Wonderful! 💖 Beautiful! 🌟🌟 Excellent 😀🥀 Thank You!!!
I want to wear a yukata so bad. (A kimono too but i understand its much more difficult and i would prolly enjoy yukata) but in the us there are quite a few people who think if ur not Japanese u cant wear or do mostly anything thats feom japan (or any other culture u arent.) Im honestly going to try and get one at some point and try my best to wear it properly. Love these videos and i hope ur well
thank you so much, it was very interesting. Please make same video for men's clothes
I like these videos for learning about the culture of distant lands
Hi, Shogo-san, thanks for the interesting video. I have a few questions though
1. If you can wear yukata in kimono style, does it still count on the same level of "formalness" as an average yukata or could it be interchangable with Tsumugi/Momen?
2. How can you tell the difference between Hitoe and Yukata on first sight? Aside from yukata being from thinner materials, could you distinguish them from patterns, colours or something else entirely?
Thank you! :)
That's some kitsuke aficiando level of questioning! I'm here for the answers too.
you can increase visual ranking but it is still yukata based on the material it is made out of, usually its never silk! even cotton komon may have differences such as how thin it is or the sleeves. even if the other ranked kimonos are made of silk, you would tell the difference through the pattern!
komon have simple patterns that repeat throughout the kimono. iromuji is kimono with no pattern. tsukesage is light patterns typically on the bottom of the komono and on the sleeves. homongi has more ornate patterns that dont repeat. furisode the biggest difference is that the sleeves are way longer. wedding wear kimono is totally different too and have a thick lining at the bottom so it can be draped on the floor. there are many visual and foundational differences between the types of kimono to be able to tell them apart, but in the end its easiest to tell thru pattern and materials 😊
if just day to day, wearing yukata in a more formal style has no issues and is appropriate for outings or casual events😊
@@leeda-xl2ju Thanks for interesting answer!
Can you make a video about traditional Japanese art please🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Your video are very good ❤❤❤
Very interesting. Both are very beautiful.
Such an interesting video! Loved both types
great visual video. thank you.
Awesome video thanks so much!!! So informative! I was looking for a video like this a while ago but couldn't find one, this is exactly what I needed!
i was actually thinking about this earlier and it came in my recommended
This was highly informative and fascinating! Thank you for sharing this video! I've learned a lot!
I love your videos so much. I have already learned so much and I only subscribed to your channel on sunday. Please keep up the fantastic work. Also really like the "Table of Contents" and "Summaries" you put into your videos! They are really helpful.
Very enlightening, would like to same thing for men.
This is just memorizing to watch !(:
i was lost but i enjoyed it none the less. i like the arrow feathers of the yukata most.
I’m sorry, explaining about kimono culture is very complicated😥
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!!
Very nice video, ありがとうございます for sharing. I wish おくさん could make more video's about dressing kimono/tying different 帯結び for us 😊
Harumi is bomb, Shogo-kun! Her subtleties are exquisite! Hai! 🇺🇸🤝🇯🇵🇨🇳
Please shogo i beg you do a video explaining the full steps of how to preform a traditional tea ceremony i just got tested positive and that would really help.
I too think that would be a great video!
Beautiful garments! 👍
That was great. Thank you very much.
I'm sorry, could you one day tell more about this Taisho-era way of dressing, how they wore this yukata/kimono with hakama? And can it be worn today like this too or would it be seen like wearing a 19th century gown while doing shopping?
If you haven't already done this idea could you please make a video out of it?
So my questions are why and how did samurai's exist, and why don't they exist anymore? (Sorry for bad English)
