The Japanese Tradition-tradtion-tion-on....


These videos on YouTube are absolutely hilarious. They are a touch long but worth the time. The whole series is hilarious but i have only put links to some of my favorites. I have am overjoyed not just at the humour but at the fact that they are Japanese-produced. The Japanese rarely poke such delightful fun at themselves. Apologies that only some of the videos have subtitles in English or dubbing. Please do remember that these are comedy - some of the comments on YouTube are from humourless twits. Laugh and enjoy!

Sushi
Chopsticks
Origami
Bowing

This one is just weird. I enjoy the fact that it is in English, then dubbed into Japanese and THEN English subtitles are added! Japanese Dating

This last one is totally unrelated but i almost puked i laughed so hard. I love Japanese game shows! These are fully grown men and women!! Japanese Human Tetris

  1. Well, I came to view the Wombat, and loved it, but these Japanese customs videos are truly classic. Thanks for posting the Wombat, and these fantastic 'tradition' teaching aids(!).
