Wow I really loved listening to you two speaking Japanese. This was such a nice change. It's just such a beautiful sounding language. Side note Grace's hair looks amaze balls.
I agree! I don't know if it was just because of the tone of the video or because Ryosuke was using his own language but he seemed more comfortable and calm in this video. I liked to see this side of him! You both are great! I hope you make more videos in Japanese!
I think some of this is about getting older. when you're younger you like things you can't stand when you're older. as you grow, so do your tastes. And just an fyi, convenience stores have changed a bit around the country (in the USA). Boxed food and fresh food is far more common than it was 5 years ago. also, both of your personalities change so much when you switch languages. It makes complete sense, but it's fun to see this version of both of you.
In the U.S., Wawa is a gift from the heavens above. Yes, they have junk food and some of the things you can order aren't the best, BUT I love how it's easy to get relatively fresh sandwiches, fruit, and salads. On my way to my university I almost always stop at Wawa and get fruit and some other things to last me through the day. Even 7-Eleven is getting a bit better with offering some less disgusting prepared food options. I hope more convenience stores start offering even more healthier options.
david zar US stores aren't up to the level of Japanese stores, but they are getting better. I'm not sure where you live, but many major chains now have full kitchens in their stores. I wouldn't call it great, but the options are steadily getting better.
That's a good observation! I change a lot when I'm in Japan. I'm a big guy, 193 cm 95 kg. I guess I have a big "presence" too, but in Japan I speak a lot quieter and adopt a much more humble and polite attitude.
Right!?! I'm going to miss them! But I did get all three of Grace's books for Christmas (thank you, Jen!), which are SO FUN! I'm crossing my fingers that "My Japanese Kids Think I'm Crazy" will be next.
I don't speak Japanese, but I wish more of your videos were like this. There is a kind of music in the way your voices work together. It is very pleasant.
I often wondered how one would begin to feel after living in another country for a long time. You've answered that thought in this video and I'm grateful
Well, I know when I speak my second language, I'm a lot quieter as well. It's really interesting, and there are studies that show your personality changes when you speak your second language. Like me speaking English is very different than me speaking Norwegian. As well, she's probably trying to translate, and work out the grammar before she speaks. But I'm not Grace, so I can't speak for her entirely. I just know that's what goes through my head when I speak Norwegian.
It could be simply that she's more shy to demonstrate her Japanese like that. But the other commenters are probably onto something as well. I always remember my Spanish teacher in high school. She was so wildly different when speaking either English or Spanish.
I dont think its shyness... more like a characteristic that comes with the language (doesnt mean everyone has to "seem" shy... just for her it works). When I speak German (mother tongue) I think I speak Tomboyish... not very girly. When I speak Thai BAM I am so polite, my voice is higher and I sound "cuter". I dont do that on purpose though. Both languages are just so different in sound and grammer.
I was an exchange student in Japan for a year, and I just returned home a week ago . This video makes me really miss speaking this beautiful language , I miss hearing Japanese everyday 😢 thank you for uploading this video !❤️
You guys are so cute! It's also nice to hear a whole video in Japanese. I'm starting to learn and listening to just people talk really helps. Thank you!
I love when you do videos entirely in Japanese with subtitles because it helps me practice my listening skills while I'm studying Japanese! If I miss something I can go back and read the subtitle and it's really helpful! Plus you always have something fun and interesting to say :)
I really love the videos where you guys speak Japanese and there are English subtitles. Me and my boyfriend are learning Japanese and this helps a lot. You also speak clearly which makes understanding each word easier. Thank you for your great vids!
I'm an American viewer and i really liked the style of this video. live to love you guys regardless of what you put out but this was really cute.you guys just keep being you.love u
My friend was first in love with the noise that is present in Tokyo, I mean all the people around, advertisments and stuff like that, but after living there for few months the first thing she said when she travelled back home was that she is SO tired of the noise and people crowded everywhere, and she misses the quiet and steady life in Poland :)
i recent started watching your Vlogs, I've had some small tutoring in Japanese and Rosette stone for a while but its nice i can play your videos listen to you speak and then read the words i do not understand yet. so you are teaching, providing entertainment and having LOADS of fun doing it. Big thumbs up from me and now a new Subscriber!
Seeing you two really makes me smile. I was a fan of your comics on Webtoons, and although you're leaving from there, I'm thrilled that I still get to hear about your guys' adventures and experiences on your blog!
So funny video, thanks guys! And I love your pronunciation and way of talking Grace, it sounds so good and emphasises emotions, making the discussion even more entertaining! I was laughing a couple of times just because of the way certain replies were emphasised :D
Did that....while staying at a weekly mansion in Tokyo, bought fabric softener instead of detergent...couldn't tell the difference from the packaging. 7-11 in the USA tried to sell rice balls but it didn't take. The majority of food in the USA convenience stores is still junk food ;(
Really loved how the whole video was in Japanese. I want to start the process of learning Japanese and feel videos like this with just conversational talking would be a great help.
I love hearing Grace speak Japanese!! also it's funny to hear her speak in "Jinglish (Japanese/English mix)" because that is how I naturally speak as a half Japanese girl.
Yay a Japanese video! I did Purikura last time I was in Japan (2014) and my Japanese is still weak, so we didn't understand what was happening, especially because it only gave a limited time to select things. The pictures were hilarious though, especially as it covered my now-husband in sparkles and makeup.
I like all of your videos, but I really like the ones where you speak a lot of Japanese. As someone who's learning it and also from a "Southerny" state, it really inspires me to hear someone similarly speak the language so well!
These days, gas stations like QT are offering small kitchens inside with food made fresh. It doesn't quite compare to Japan's convenience stores, but it's way better than it was! I really enjoyed this video :-) I love how open you both are. You always come off so genuine and down-to-earth. Hope you got my recent email! Talk to you guys soon!
I like watching the videos so much more over the last few months. Mostly because Ryosuke doesn't do all the super weird stuff, acting like a little kid still. Now it's like he's grown up and actually like an adult. It's nice to see, I hope it continues. I used to only watch if Grace was in the video.
Hey Grace & Roysuke really enjoyed the video I'm looking forward to reflecting on what I liked about Japan when I first go there to later but first I have to make it there. Grace your Japanese is so good! And I really enjoy Roysuke speaking his native language I can see more of his personality
I found your channel because my husband is visiting Japan for business for the first time, and he's a little overwhelmed by the cultural differences, even though he's worked for a Japanese company for over 25 years. This video made me laugh, because he just today discovered the convenience store food! He was really worried about being able to find something to eat. He's not a picky eater, but he doesn't speak or read Japanese. I wish we'd found your channel *before* he left! (and your husband is correct - you are both adorable!)
Not a problem. I am wanting to learn Japanese, so hearing it is a great way to learn. I can't travel to Japan right now, so learning through youtubers is what I do haha
When I was in Japan in -99 I was amazed of the sushi-vending-machines in the train stations. But after a girl in our company ordered what turned out to be "Crushed fried chicken feet" from a menu with the help of pictures (She thought it was meatballs), I mostly had burgers :)
Yeah your Japanese is amazing Grace. Well done! Very interesting to see it entirely in Japanese. Glad you put subtitles, I don't understand any Japanese.
Ahh so people mentioned Grace acts differently when talking fully in Japanese, I think so too! In fact I somehow find it a lot easier to watch (??) even though I don't speak Japanese at all :P It could be just the closeness I feel to Asian languages. I mean, when I speak in English, I am mostly quite polite, probably derived from the fact I used to only speak it at school (I am fluent colloquially as well). When I speak in my mother-tongue Chinese (in both Canto and Mando) the words I use are a lot more blunt and I am so much more out going (probably comfort factor again), the language is a lot more complex as well. Languages are cool, and it's amazing how quickly you picked up! *insert adoration eyes*
Thanks for another awesome video! I love your guys' channel! I can't imagine Ryosuke (sp?) would have broken off the engagement, I was literally staring at my computer screen in shock, like, nooo!!! There can't be a world where you two are not together! You were made for each other! Also, I lived in France for a month (spoke absolutely no French) and my mom sent me to the store for laundry detergent and I came back with softener as well! The lady at the cash register kept talking to me and pointing at the bottle like she was asking me if I was sure, and I had no clue what she was saying lol So of course I bought it anyways. Oh well, lesson learned! Btw, I wish American convenience stores sold awesome food like that!!
I love hearing you speak Japanese Grace and super jealous! I would love to speak as well as you do and I'm Japanese-American! Keep it up and hope to see more videos like this one!
I took the last train once...except it really wasn't what one should expect for the last train. I went from Takadanobaba to Seibu Shinjuku. Everyone that was gonna take Yamanote Line or other train lines got off at Baba so it was only me on this 10 car train for the 2km trip to it's home at Seibu Shinjuku. Note to tourists: if you wanna take the last train, I suggest the Yamanote Line. It stops running at 1:15 pm and the trains get taken out of service at Osaki, Shinagawa, or Ikebukuro stations.
I DID IT! I saw your channel from Rachel and Jun's channel and decided to watch all the videos from the beginning. It took a few months but I have finally watched all of them! You guys are super funny and awesome and I look forward to being able to see new videos! :D
As someone who is trying to currently learn Japanese for a career advantage, as well as my love for the culture of Japan, I am so very happy to see these full on Japanese speaking videos. It is such a pretty langsuge to me, and to see Grace so confident and natural speaking it gives me hope that with diligent practice and study I will one day be comfortable with such a daunting language :)
Hey, you guys are awesome! Great chemistry between you. I've been in Japan 14 years and just last week I started listening to a Japanese (ofcourse) radio station. I can say now that I'm well over it. Look forward to your next post.
I just left my phone and was listing away from the screen and was surprised that I could understand them speaking in Japanese it was a "you have evolved moment" . Then they spoke something complicated and it was "illusion shattered"
You guys should think about doing travel vids like kyde and Eric.... (Us expats living in Japan) think it would be great to see the dual takes on other countries!
This channel has been so fun to watch. My boyfriend and I are an "international" couple but I'm american and he's canadian so there's really hardly any cultural differences, at least nothing as drastic as there are between japan and america.
I have to agree with Grace on that last one. I used to love convenience store food when I first moved to Taiwan. They have everything! Even potato salad. But then, I had to eat it too often when I didn't have time to cook and quickly became bored of it. You should make a video of the things you didn't like at first but now like :D
There are a few convenience store exceptions in the USA where you can get a decent meal. I've lived in Texas which has Buc-ee's and Pennsylvania which had Wawa and Sheetz.
Thank you for the video in Japanese! Because I'm learning Japanese I found this really fun to watch! As for your question, I've not tried purikura yet. Conbini stores food, I usually buy just onigiri if I'm in a rush. Something I used to love but not so much now?! Hm....probably sushi! I've had so much that I want to try all the other foods available now & its not my first thought anymore. xx
Great video and I was just waxing nostalgic about the station jingles in the JR trains and how when I hear them, if feels me with a warm feeling of when I was in Tokyo. Also, conbini food will always rock!

Ryosuke's Japanese is so easy to understand. He speaks very clearly :-)
Oh I am glad to hear that!
Wow I really loved listening to you two speaking Japanese. This was such a nice change. It's just such a beautiful sounding language. Side note Grace's hair looks amaze balls.
Yay! I am glad you liked listening to our Japanese~! It was fun :D
I agree! I don't know if it was just because of the tone of the video or because Ryosuke was using his own language but he seemed more comfortable and calm in this video. I liked to see this side of him! You both are great! I hope you make more videos in Japanese!
I agree! You two should do more Japanese vlogs!
二人がかわいいですね！
agree
I THINK WE ALL NEED TO SEE THAT PICTURE!
OFC ! 👏
We looked for it but could not find it... :( (Ryosuke)
Yea we do, we do.
haiz there goes the 8th wonders of the world.
thats what i thought!

Even 7-Eleven is getting a bit better with offering some less disgusting prepared food options. I hope more convenience stores start offering even more healthier options.
I mostly see salads and sandwiches, and pasta and that's only in fancy convenient stores.

+david zar yea same here in new zealand.... especially coffee shops and bakery shops

Thanks ;D
I agree, I really enjoyed that as well! :)
I agree! It was so fun to watch! :)
yOU GUYS ARE HONESTLY THE CUTEST COUPLE EVER
Thank you :3
So cute!!

Right!?! I'm going to miss them! But I did get all three of Grace's books for Christmas (thank you, Jen!), which are SO FUN! I'm crossing my fingers that "My Japanese Kids Think I'm Crazy" will be next.
Ikr 😄 They're sooo adorable.
I just came across this channel a few days ago.
なに日本語しゃべってるグレイス超可愛いんだけど
I liked the whole episode in Japanese. thank you both for sharing.
You guys are so cute! この動画は和む♪
ありがとう！やっぱりグレイスが優しいから、和むんだね！全てはグレイスのおかげ♪
+That Japanese Man Yuta hahaha thanks :)
GRACE we need to see this picture!!! also your past hair color was so beautiful. you look great with both!! lucky ryosuke
When you guys speak in Japanese it is so cute!! I am really happy you did a video in Japanese!!
I don't speak Japanese, but I wish more of your videos were like this. There is a kind of music in the way your voices work together. It is very pleasant.
日本語ありがとうございます！！！
いつもはリスニングの練習で視聴させていただいていますが、たまにでも日本語で投稿いただけるとやっぱり嬉しいです笑
よかったです！グレイスの英語は早いから勉強になると思います笑 ぼくもたまに分かんないですもん笑
+Texan in Tokyo 返信ありがとうございます！！！めちゃくちゃ嬉しいです笑
お二人の英語を聞き取れるまで巻き戻しまくってます笑
これからも動画楽しみにしてますし、応援してます！
喜んでもらえてよかった！僕の英語はスキップで、グレイスの部分をしっかり聞けば上手になる！応援ありがとう♬
+Texan in Tokyo グレイスさんも勿論、リョウスケさんの英語で知らなかった語彙とか楽しみながら勉強させていただいてます！笑
I often wondered how one would begin to feel after living in another country for a long time. You've answered that thought in this video and I'm grateful
I think everyone has a different experience... but I think it does get easier around the 3 year mark! :)
That's usually around the period when I move. I'm actually coming up to three years in Japan..in about a month. wow.
When grace speaks japanese it's kinda more shy than usual? xD Dunno. Haha.
Ahhh! Okay. I wondered why.
Well, I know when I speak my second language, I'm a lot quieter as well. It's really interesting, and there are studies that show your personality changes when you speak your second language. Like me speaking English is very different than me speaking Norwegian. As well, she's probably trying to translate, and work out the grammar before she speaks.

Both languages are just so different in sound and grammer.
+Pwyllugh To men also. I know an instance ;)
I really enjoyed watching you two speak only in Japanese. Its neat to see Grace so comfortable in a different language.
i love this type of videos in japanese!! they are great for those of us that are trying to learn the language to practice
love to see pics of you in your doll fashion phase ,please
I was an exchange student in Japan for a year, and I just returned home a week ago . This video makes me really miss speaking this beautiful language , I miss hearing Japanese everyday 😢 thank you for uploading this video !❤️
I hope you had a fantastic year here! がんばって！
You guys are so cute! It's also nice to hear a whole video in Japanese. I'm starting to learn and listening to just people talk really helps. Thank you!
im half japanese i was so excited i could understand what you guys were saying!
I'm Japanese half too and originally from Japan.
So I can't speak English at all :(
D: but how did u write that comment then?
It's not uncommon to be able to dechipher the meaning of written text in a language which you cannot understand when spoken.
Same!! I love that I can understand what they are saying!! I also like to look at the subtitles to see how things change in translation.
＋祐黒 そうですか？どうやってコメントを書いたんですか。。。。？
You should make more videos in Japanese, it gives Rio a chance to truly express himself.
日本在住で発信している外人のユーチューバーの方々沢山いらっしゃいますが、
最近この２人が一番好きですwww ２人共仲良くてかわいくてなんか雰囲気いいですよね。
ビデオで取り上げる題材も独自でいいですよね
雰囲気が良いなんてめっちゃ嬉しいです！思わずニヤけちゃうくらいです笑 ありがとうございま～す！
グレイスは日本語を話してめっちゃ楽しそう！
日本に住むのは似合うね
When your husband reacted to your make over I had to laugh and laugh!! You guys are so sweet together!
とても仲が良さそうな夫婦ですね。あとグレイスさん日本語がとても上達しましたね。
I love when you do videos entirely in Japanese with subtitles because it helps me practice my listening skills while I'm studying Japanese! If I miss something I can go back and read the subtitle and it's really helpful! Plus you always have something fun and interesting to say :)
お二人とも可愛いですね。
自然体で素敵です。
グレースさんめっちゃ日本語上手！普通に日本人の日本語聞いてるみたい
それ最高の褒め言葉です！グレイスも超笑顔間違いなし！ありがとう♬
yass great video guys .
ありがと
There is a 「う」in the end: 「ありがとう」
+fearlessmyworld oh 🙈🙉 thanx for telling me that
+my life as dee In conversation, that's ok. It sounds more softly.
会話の中なら、全然OKですよ、やわらかく聞こえるし。
+祐黒 前は英語はわからないとおっしゃってましたが、私から見たらとてもお上手だとおもいますよ！
I love that you both spoke Japanese! Please create more videos like this!
I really love the videos where you guys speak Japanese and there are English subtitles. Me and my boyfriend are learning Japanese and this helps a lot. You also speak clearly which makes understanding each word easier.
Thank you for your great vids!
For me it's izakayas. I still like going occasionally, but when I first came to Japan, it was every weekend, Saturday and Sunday.
That's true! I am not so into izakayas either... Thanks for sharing!
5:52 Many convenience stores don't have good food but I'm spoiled by Wawa. :)
This guy knows what's up :P
Jersey?
Slimy Weasles Philly.
Wawa is the best! Love a chocolate banana smoothie on a hot day.
+Samantha Yoast I haven't tried that flavor but I love their smoothies!

Really loved how the whole video was in Japanese. I want to start the process of learning Japanese and feel videos like this with just conversational talking would be a great help.

おー！全部日本語〜！グレース、お疲れ様〜♡ そして今のnatural なグレースが素敵♪ プリクラからコンビニまで、ぜーんぶ、よくわかったよ〜♪
こんな綺麗な人いるんですね
良ちゃん羨ましすぎ
そうなんですよ〜！世界は広いからね〜！
I love hearing Grace speak Japanese!! also it's funny to hear her speak in "Jinglish (Japanese/English mix)" because that is how I naturally speak as a half Japanese girl.
Another great video. I Love when I can pick up some Japanese. :)
So cute! I loved watching you guys speaking Nihon-go!
I enjoy listening to you speak in Japanese together. Grace is already cute, but she's even cuter when she speaks Japanese.
That was damn impressive, Grace. Very cool. (Ryosuke's English is equally impressive, of course)
Oh my God you guys are so cute. My cheeks hurt from smiling. Also, I don't know why ANYONE would want to ride a crowded train... Y'all are crazy. XD
Oh I didn't want to ride crowded trains, just Grace! haha we both enjoyed it though (Ryosuke)
Yay a Japanese video! I did Purikura last time I was in Japan (2014) and my Japanese is still weak, so we didn't understand what was happening, especially because it only gave a limited time to select things. The pictures were hilarious though, especially as it covered my now-husband in sparkles and makeup.
This was great! I too enjoyed hearing you both speak Japanese. (as I'm learning it's both educational and entertaining! Win win!)
I LOVE it when you're speaking Japanese! I can't even explain why, but you're even cuter than usual when you do :D
Isn't she though? I think so too! (Ryosuke)
Grace your Japanese is goals!!! I think you have an amazing accent and perfect intonation!
日本語の動画嬉しい〜！！
喜んでもらえて僕も嬉しい～♪

Hope you got my recent email! Talk to you guys soon!
I like how Ryoske says, "She bought a lot of clothes! We got a lot of pictures!" and Grace is all, "Not that much! Not that many!"
yaaaaasss grace speaking japanesee!
You are the best looking/adorable couple I ever seen! I'm addicted to your videos!
I like watching the videos so much more over the last few months. Mostly because Ryosuke doesn't do all the super weird stuff, acting like a little kid still. Now it's like he's grown up and actually like an adult. It's nice to see, I hope it continues. I used to only watch if Grace was in the video.

Sweet geezuz. She seems to speak 🇯🇵 pretty good. I wonder how long it took her to learn it. Soooo cool.
I took the last train once...except it really wasn't what one should expect for the last train.
I went from Takadanobaba to Seibu Shinjuku. Everyone that was gonna take Yamanote Line or other train lines got off at Baba so it was only me on this 10 car train for the 2km trip to it's home at Seibu Shinjuku.

It is such a pretty langsuge to me, and to see Grace so confident and natural speaking it gives me hope that with diligent practice and study I will one day be comfortable with such a daunting language :)
Hey, you guys are awesome! Great chemistry between you. I've been in Japan 14 years and just last week I started listening to a Japanese (ofcourse) radio station. I can say now that I'm well over it. Look forward to your next post.
I just left my phone and was listing away from the screen and was surprised that I could understand them speaking in Japanese it was a "you have evolved moment" . Then they spoke something complicated and it was "illusion shattered"
haha, I'm Taiwanese, can't understand Japanese but learning!
(but thankfully you have subtitle!!)
Your wife's Japanese are sooo good!
i really like you guys speaking japanese it helps me a lot on hearing the words so arigato gozimasu!
I really enjoyed this video.
Yay :D
You guys should think about doing travel vids like kyde and Eric.... (Us expats living in Japan) think it would be great to see the dual takes on other countries!
This channel has been so fun to watch. My boyfriend and I are an "international" couple but I'm american and he's canadian so there's really hardly any cultural differences, at least nothing as drastic as there are between japan and america.
I have to agree with Grace on that last one. I used to love convenience store food when I first moved to Taiwan. They have everything! Even potato salad. But then, I had to eat it too often when I didn't have time to cook and quickly became bored of it.
You should make a video of the things you didn't like at first but now like :D
There are a few convenience store exceptions in the USA where you can get a decent meal. I've lived in Texas which has Buc-ee's and Pennsylvania which had Wawa and Sheetz.
この動画自体も、普段より肩の力が抜けた自然な感じですごく良かったです。
内容も面白かった。
ところでグレイスのドールファッションの写真は是非見て見たかったですw
such a cute couple 😄
Thank you for the video in Japanese! Because I'm learning Japanese I found this really fun to watch! As for your question, I've not tried purikura yet. Conbini stores food, I usually buy just onigiri if I'm in a rush. Something I used to love but not so much now?! Hm....probably sushi! I've had so much that I want to try all the other foods available now & its not my first thought anymore.
xx
I'm impressed with your Japanese Grace, well done!
I remember I used to love just walking around places and seeing different eras of buildings, like old with new. Now it's just become so normal.
I really like these videos where you're speaking in Japanese. I hope you make more! :)
You guys make me so happy!
Great video and I was just waxing nostalgic about the station jingles in the JR trains and how when I hear them, if feels me with a warm feeling of when I was in Tokyo. Also, conbini food will always rock!
Oh a video in Japanese ! Love it ! I get you about the 'kawaii fashion' hahaha
I am glad you get the "kawaii fashion" thing!
