The first elder is such a good example of someone who takes pride in their culture and reinforcing the stability of their culture, while also being vastly open to share is with others. It's nice to see a person who believes in both of those things.

I’m learning japanese and I find that the lady with the dark umbrella is so well spoken and her voice is very soothing

Just wanted to say that it is quite amazing how Takashi has grown as an interviewer, how he selects and handles his interviewees, the quality of his questions, and how he gently nudges them to dig deeper and showcase their points of view. I sincerely hope he keeps doing this and take it to the next level.

My neighbours in Kyoto became like grandparents to my son. They help him with his homework, buy cakes for his birthday, give him treats, money for travelling and give him affection. When he goes to their house he calls out "I'm home!" They said that they loved him when we left.

What a lovely man the first guy is. So resolute in his welcome, I’m sure his son-in-law was delighted.

It’s really interesting to hear the political mixture of feelings happening in other countries’ old folks.

I like what the first guy said about living in the countryside rather than in a big city like Tokyo. I've lived in Nagasaki for 4 years and I enjoyed living in the countryside. So peacefull, so quiet, sorrounded by nature and you're like living in a frozen time.

When I lived in Japan a few years ago, my favourite people were of the older generations. I'm in my forties and all my Japanese friends were in their 60s and 70s. In my opinion, they carry so much of the true values and traditions of Japan that's it's an honour to spend time with them.

The third guy didn't just say "...that'd be too subjective of me to say" at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiSmMN8Pd5M&t=487">8:07</a>, he said 差別 as in, "I can't be against that, ...it would be discriminatory" which I think is important to have in there. A lot of people seem to think Japanese people don't have the same understanding or context for discrimination/racism that people in the West do but they're well aware!
