Hey guys this is Cathy Cat and today we are at the Bunka fashion college
for their entrance ceremony.
We will ask the future fashion leaders of Japan what they think
is better in Japan than abroad?
Let's go and find out.
What's better in Japan than abroad?
Well, look the cherry blossoms today are so beautiful.
I think the change of seasons is very beautiful.
What do you like about the cherry blossoms?
Every year they bloom so brilliantly.
And the falling petals are beautiful too.
We appreciate the change of the seasons very much.
In spring we have the cherry blossoms.
We have all four seasons. Depending on the season the city will change.
- What is your favorite season? - That would be summer.
We have the Bunka Fashion College!
We have many cultures here and fashion from many cultures too.
We have rock fashion from abroad but also Japanese style fashion.
We have Chinese fashion and we can try and wear them all.
We have so many fashion culture influences. I think we are superior in that field.
We have many ways to remake a kimono into something else.
I appreciate the fashion culture of Harajuku such as Gothic and Lolita.
I appreciate that.
We have many cultures here so we are always up to the newest trends.
I personally think Harajuku fashion is the best.
And thanks to that more people have come to tolerate other fashion styles.
I love Harajuku Fashion!
When I wear Decora fashion, many foreigners will come and take pictures.
What do you like the most about Harajuku fashion?
The way I can create and display my style. It's fun just walking around in it.
Fashion! We have so many fashion styles compared to abroad.
Wearing our fashion is fun and looking at others fashion is great too.
There are no rules and definitions so you can try a lot of things.
In Harajuku many foreigners are surprised when they see our fashion styles.
I think Japanese are already used to seeing it because most are fashionable.
Foreigners say "WOW" in surprise and I think that's because
they don't have that in their countries.
You think they are surprised when they see Japanese fashion?
What I like in Japan is that if you wear extravagant fashion,
of course there are people who look away but
but there are generally more who praise your style. Everyone is kind.
- The food is great. - Which one?
Sushi.
Abroad is great but Japan has nice food.
- Sushi is tasty, right?! - Yeah it's tasty.
Food is great. Sushi!
- What type of Sushi do you like? - Salmon.
- Food is great here. - What food?
Curry!
- Japanese curry? - Yeah.
It's great we have Sushi.
I am glad to have sushi restaurants wherever I go.
What is your favorite Sushi?
?
It's delicious. You should try it.
Our trains do actually come on time.
Our trains come on time. I went abroad and the trains kept all waiting.
You easily wait for 8 minutes or more.
- Compared to that Japanese trains are...? - Excellent and on time.
Our trains arrive on time.
When I went abroad the trains didn't keep their schedules.
When I got home the trains came on time and I realized how good that is.
The toilets are clean and you can flush the toilet paper.
I was in New York until yesterday and I was surprised that
you couldn't flush the toilet paper there. That surprised me.
- Polite customer service - Very polite.
Public safety. I come from the country so I don't know that much but
I have been abroad before too.
If you leave your luggage unattended people might steal it abroad.
You have to be careful in Japan too but not as much.
Safety goes first!
We can leave our luggage at the entrance of a restaurant without worries
but abroad people would steal it.
This safety is one of the great things here.
Abroad too, but Japanese people are especially kind.
If someone drops something everyone will bend down to get it.
Abroad people are kind too but Japan is very kind.
We are kind and think of others before ourselves.
People will get up for others on the train...
and that's when I thought that the people of Tokyo are really kind.
I think it's great how peaceful Japan is.
Yeah it is!
The way people great each other and also the fact that we have hot springs.
What do you like about that?
You can really warm up.
Thanks for your help.
Since we were asking people from the Bunka Fashion college
most replies were about fashion because Japanese fashion
is very versatile, there are so many styles.
There are so many magazines for every style and sub-style.
There is a great variety here and the students of Bunka knew about that.
Other things they mentioned was the food and the trains.
The train system here is very reliable, you might be surprised.
If people get somewhere one minute late the conductor will apologize.
So there and a couple of other things were mentioned.
What do you think? What is great in Japan more than abroad?
We also asked this question to some foreigners in Japan
