Walking while smoking.
Walking while smoking is a NO
How about people taking sneaky pictures. That just happened now.
Yeah that's no good.
Hey Youtube it's CathyCat and we went to the streets of Japan and asked
Japanese people things you should never ever do
when you come to Japan. Some of the things Japanese people have told us
are mistakes they have seen other foreigners do.
So let's try not to do those things and Ask Japanese.
What shall you never do in Japan?
Forbidden things? - Walking while smoking!
Walking while smoking is no good at all.
If you want to smoke, go to the smoking areas.
Where in the city are those areas?
They generally have them near stations.
And then there are restaurants that allow you to smoke.
Some family restaurants and such.
When you're out on the streets, you can't smoke? - That's right.
If you want to smoke you need the smoking area. But what if...
you get caught smoking in other public places, walking around.
Depending on the place, the police will make you pay money for it.
We have that here, so please be careful.
Also don't litter.
Don't just throw things on the streets... like that.
Stuff like that! Don't do it.
Who did that!
Some foreigners wear really strong perfume... That's a bit meh...
That's not good.
For example...
When the smell is just far too much.
People who top up so much.
I don't know if they just wanna hide their bodily odor under it but...
they spray on way too much perfume...
and those strong smells will make people feel sick on the train and such.
Some Japanese do the same mistake but...
Foreign fragrances are much stronger than Japanese ones.
A little bit of fragrance goes a long way.
I don't think you need that much.
I totally understand. When one person wears too much perfume on the train
that person stands out so much.
Apart from that it's all ok. Foreigners are generally all nice.
Glad to hear that.
Maybe Japanese people are even worse.
I bet the person who littered there was Japanese.
Don't make too many sounds when you eat. - I get that.
What do you mean?
Sounds like this...
- Close your mouth. - Exactly.
Have you seen people who get it wrong?
Yeah sometimes.
I think that's a cultural difference there.
It doesn't bother me too much but...
if people didn't do it, their manners would improve.
Japanese people stand in line for a lot of things, right?
But when we do that, I sometimes think, people abroad don't know about that...
They might not mean harm, but they cut in line.
I will try and call them out on the fact that we are all standing in line
and they'll apologize.
If there is a line, then you should stand in line like everyone else.
Don't cut in line. I believe in that too.
I heard this somewhere but...
when you ask a woman to go on a dinner with you, it's like going on a real date.
But when you ask them to go for lunch, it's not as heavy of a invite.
We don't have that divide in Japan.
I have the feeling some foreign women don't get it.
For example, if a girl comes here to Japan and gets asked to lunch...
if a Japanese man invited you for lunch, doesn't mean that's an easy invite.
I think there is a gap in understanding that.
So what I personally want to know now is...
Are both lunch and dinner equally a real date, or equally just a normal invite?
Neither too heavy or to easy...
They are both the same kind of level.
But there is just no divide between the meaning between lunch and dinner.
So there isn't just a dinner date, but also a lunch date?
We have that here.
I think the recent young people are doing that.
If I get invited by a man to go for lunch...
I am allowed to wonder if that person likes me or not?
Yes, then you actually should.
If you think it's nothing, you might be wrong.
Please do not litter.
In Tokyo are not many garbage bags.
So what should people do?
Carry the rubbish home.
And then you need to recycle. - Yes recycle.
At the escalators, don't stand next to each other.
You have to stand behind the person in front of you.
Make space for the people who want to walk up the escalators.
And here are the people that just stand.
Who stops, left or right?
In Tokyo people on the left are standing.
But in Kansai it's the other way around.
Please take care of that depending on where you are going.
Do not cut in line. When everyone is lining up...
do not push in. Wait for your turn in line.
If people do it, how does that make you feel?
It makes me feel kind of sad.
Will you tell them to not do that?
Japanese people can't culturally really do that...
Because they can't tell you, please protect the rule.
You are not allowed to pass things from one set of chopsticks to another.
How shall you receive food then? - Hold out your plate instead.
Don't pass things from Chopstick to chopstick
Many girls don't wear a bra. - I've never heard about that.
Many foreign girls don't wear a bra underneath. You'll stand out in a bad way.
- You better wear one underneath. - You should. It's dangerous.
What is dangerous about it? - The looks of men.
Tourists take so many pictures. Pictures of places Japanese would never take pics of.
Makes me think they must really like taking pictures of crowded areas.
Especially at Shibuya's scramble crossing.
Even though there are so many people passing, tourists try to
take selfies with selfie sticks and such. I think that's really dangerous.
Watch out for the people around you. - Exactly.
Foreigners talk so loud on the train.
Just now there was a foreign guy on the train who was way too loud.
We won't understand what he is saying, cause we don't speak the language but...
it felt too loud for the train.
Anything else? - I think Japanese people make mistakes too.
Littering. We both don't really like that.
In Tokyo are barely any rubbish cans. What do we do?
Bring a bag and carry your rubbish around.
I generally try avoiding things that will become garbage to carry round.
You have a real strategy there.
It's also bad manners to stab your chopsticks upwards into rice.
Don't do it. Just put them down.
How about people taking sneaky pictures. That just happened now.
That's bad too.
We were just walking and there are many people who just take pictures on this street
Yes or No.
Not at all!
No sneaky pictures guys!
If you ask if you can take a picture it's ok. - That's still ok.
There are many people who take random pictures on the streets. That's dangerous.
If you bump into people, that's dangerous.
What should people do then?
Look at things with your own eyes and take the picture with your heart.
With our hearts.
- Do not cut in line. - Did you see foreigners do it?
I am from Okinawa. In Okinawa we see that a lot.
Thank you so much.
We asked Japanese people on the streets about things that you should not do in Japan
and that actually annoy them when foreigners do them.
I think top of the list is the cutting in line part.
I know your country might not be a country where you have to stand in line
please don't come to Japan and cut in line.
Even I saw a foreigner who sneakily cut in line before...
you get so much hate for it.
Everyone lines up. That's how Tokyo works.
If you don't line up, Tokyo would not be working the way it does.
So please stand in line. That's number one.
Number 2 is littering. People hate it when you litter.
Tokyo is a very clean city and there are barely any bins.
I know it's hard but you sometimes just need to carry your garbage around.
Sometimes I do that too, I buy myself an item that doesn't have a large plastic pack
so I don't need to carry it around.
Just get something simply wrapped so you can take it home and throw it away there.
Other things: Don't eat with your mouth open.
Lunch date is still a date. Don't think the guy is just asking for a casual date.
A lunch date is still a date.
Don't smoke on the street. I actually like that.
No one smokes on the street. There are designated smoking areas...
And restaurants and cafes that have smoking areas.
Don't smoke on the street otherwise you might be in for a fine.
We continue with chopsticks. There are quite a lot of
chopstick manners. You might want to look them up.
You're not supposed to stab them into your rice and leave them there.
You're not supposed to pass items from chopstick to chopstick.
Be very careful how to use your chopsticks before you come.
Don't speak so loud on the train, it's a common thing with foreigners.
I am sorry america... many people say Americans are the loudest people on the train...
I have an American friend who said he is always the loudest on the train.
People get easily annoyed and lots of people in Tokyo
are under a lot of stress.
Stress and having to work very hard and being squished in the train in the morning
and you'd rather be anywhere else and there is this really loud tourist
who shouts into your ear.
You don't want to be that person.
Sneaky pictures is a topic that I am so annoyed about
that I am gonna be on fire.
NOT NOT NOT take sneaky pictures of people in Japan,
there is actually a law against taking pictures of people
You're not allowed to just go and take pictures of people.
Just because you think you are from a different country you can get away with it
DON'T do it. We have so many people on a daily base and that's always tourists
who come and take pictures of us when they shouldn't.
They don't ask. If you ask a person, it's totally fine.
We also have a video that tells you how to ask a person
if you can take pictures of them.
But don't just go and take pictures.
It really annoys people...
heavily annoys people and me.
Don't do it. It's not cool and not legal. Don't do it.
Don't wear too revealing clothes. Especially Japanese ladies
show a lot of leg but they do not show cleavage.
Cleavage is the most part hidden.
It's really rare to see girls who show their clevage.
As lady in Japan be careful about that. I've seen a couple of girls who were like
see through tops so you can only see the bra.
People will judge you for that.
It's interesting because showing leg is ok and even having like
knee-high socks and socks that are like over-knee
Even suspender looking socks
That's something that you wouldn't do in the UK or Germany.
But you can do that in Japan.
As a balance you don't show too much cleavage, you don't emphasize your chest.
Everything is hidden in this area.
So be careful about that, otherwise you might get weird stares on the train.
Don't wear perfume that is actually too strong!
You can always tell who the foreigner around you is
because some people just shower themselves in perfume.
Many foreigners have a problem when they come to Japan
they cannot find the right deodrant.
So they just shower themselves in perfume.
Don't do that.
What you wanna do, when you come to Japan, even for a short holiday,
Bring a perfume... not a perfume.
Bring a deodorant that actually hides your smell and have daily showers before you go out
Japanese people don't seem to smell as much.
It's magical, I don'T know I am so jealous.
They don't smell of anything or just smell of soap.
Don't go round with a strong cologne.
I made that mistake, bought myself a really nice perfume
from lush. I can't use it here because...
I only wore it once, just a little bit. I had one spray...
everyone could smell me everywhere. So you don't want to do that.
That's a couple of things that you do not want to do in Japan.
If you would like to add anything to the list, so other people can
