Baby B?! Big B? What are we talking about?

何の事ですのん！？

1,35!

135ml!

- Uh... possibly that!? - Yeah!

あー、たぶんあれ？ -みたいな！

I was like "Oh noooo!"

おおおおおのおおおお的な！

You get very cozy with strangers.

居心地がいい感じですかね

Hey guys and girls this is Cathy Cat and today we are gonna ask foreigners

カティー・キャットです！ 今回は外国人の方々に

who have come to Japan what thing they have seen

日本で初めて見たものや体験したものを

the VERY VERY first time when they've come to Japan.

きいてみます！

Something completely new to them.

何が出てくるのやら！？

Let's go and ask foreigners in Japan.

いってみましょー！

Cat cafes!

猫カフェ！

What do you think about those?

どうでした？

They're interesting. But I like them.

良いと思いますよ

Did you go to one?

行きました？

- Not yet. - Would you like to? - Yes.

-いいえ -行ってみたいですか？ -はい！

What do you imagine it will be like?

どんなんだと思いますか？

I don't know I feel like I can make some friends there with the cats.

どんな感じかわからないけど猫と仲良くなれそうね

Cat cafes, Owl cafes, bunny cafes, snake cafes...

猫カフェ、梟カフェ、兎カフェ、蛇カフェとか！

It's nice to be actually somewhere where there are manners

とにかくマナーがいいですね

and cuing and things like that, because we have been in China for a while.

ここの前に中国にいたんですけど。

It's just crazy here isn't it. Like frozen popcorn we saw today. It was nice.

あとフローズンポップコーンも良かった

With the cat cafes, have you been to one yet?

あと猫カフェ行きました？

We went to the cat cafe, that was good.

ええ。よかったですよ！

That was lovely.

ラブリーでしたね！

We have seen a rabbit cafe and an owl cafe.

まだ梟カフェや兎カフェには行ってないけど

- We haven't been in. - Snake cafe.

-あと蛇カフェね -蛇！

Would you like to try and go to a snake cafe?

蛇カフェ行ってみたいですか？

I don't fancy it myself.

個人的にはノーです（笑）

Well, I'd be alright with it.

私はOKです

We don't have this many vending machines.

自動販売機！

Vending machines are EVERYWHERE!

どこにでもある！

Where are the cool cans of...

あとこの缶。。。

The Bee!

びーーーーーーる！

Baby B. In Australia we don't do Baby B we do BIG B!

小っちゃいB!こんな小っちゃいビールオーストラリアにはないですよ！

Baby B?! Big B? What are we talking about?

小っちゃいビール！？なんのこと！？

We don't have this small can.

この小さな缶！

Oh right.

おー！

Like the mini mini sizes.

ミニサイズ！

Where did you find that cause I have only seen that...

見たことないいですけど、これはどこで？

Why have I not seen this, I live here!

見たことないいですけど、これはどこで？

1,35!

135ml!

It's like tiny.

ちっちゃーい！

It's a waste of time really. You need at least four of them.

少なすぎ！4倍はいるでしょ！

Like a mini shot.

ミニショット的な（笑）

It's like a beer shot.

ショットビール（笑）

Why do you think there is a tiny beer size here in Japan?

なんで日本ではこんなビールが売っていると思いますか？

Maybe because Japanese people are tiny they have tiny little drinks.

日本人は小さいから、これくらいでいいとか？

Just a tiny bit of beer today.

今日の一杯かな

They probably can't drink as much as Australians.

あとはオーストラリア人ほど呑まないとか？

How many of those little ones would you need for a good time?

いい気分になるにはどれくらい必要ですか？

20 minimum so we will start at 20.

これが２０缶必要ですね（笑）

You mentioned the vending machines earlier.

ところで自販機といえば

What were you surprised about them?

どんなことに驚きました？

Having the combination of the cold and hot stuff.

冷たいものと温かいものが一緒になっていること！

Also, underage drinking, how does ...

あと年齢制限がどうなってるのか。。。

how do you control who buys the beer from the vending machines?

ビールの自販機とかどうしてるんでしょう？

I think there is no beer in the vending machines...?

ビールの自販機は。。。あるの？

I might be wrong. Is there beer in the vending machines sometimes?

ビールの自販機は。。。あるの？

- Yeah. - Oh right (clearly doesn't drink beer)

-あるよ -おー

That's a very good question. What do you think?

どうおもいますか？

I don't know. I have no idea. In Australia underage kids would be into that.

オーストラリアなら若い子たちも買っちゃいそうですね

Really weird vending machines.

私たちにとってはおかしな自販機です

Hot drinks, coffe and such in cans.

缶のホットコーヒー

You don't see that sort of stuff our way.

イギリスにはないです。

Things from vending machines you wouldn't expect to be.

自販機ですね

Or ordering Ramen through basically a vending machine.

ラーメンの券売機もそうですね

Pushing a button and getting a ticket.

ボタンを押してチケットを取る

and then presenting it to your server is really unusual.

本当に珍しいかったです

The ramen tickets. What confused you about that?

食券で困ったことは？

They are not in English so we are trying to match characters from pictures

英語表記がなくて写真で想像しました

- Uhm... possibly that?! - Yes.

-たぶん。。。これ？みたないな -そうです！

Heated toilet seats. We had an accident with the toilets.

温かい便座！ たまたま入ったトイレで

It shot water from the toilet up in the air and soaked us.

水が飛び出してきてびしょびしょになったんです

You go in and there is a waterfall in there.

滝みたいにね（笑）

Did you push the wrong button?

間違ったボタン押しました？

It sprayed the roof of the hotel and it was just everywhere.

天井までピューって（笑）

How did you get it to stop?

どうやって止めたんですか？

- I don't know, what did we do? - I went in.

-どうでしょ？ -なんとかして

- I went in and turned it off. - And then cleaned up all the water.

-何とかしてオフにしたよ -で、ちゃんと掃除しました（笑）

I would say the toilets.

トイレ！

The warm toilet seats. I love those.

温かい便座が最高でした！

- What did you think when you saw them the first time? -I love them.

-最初体験した時どうでした？ -一目ぼれ！

I love how warm they are and the detail. The attention to hygiene.

あときれいにする機能もすごいですね

Keeping everything clean. Love that.

とにかく清潔にしてくれますね

Everything, with all the advertisements and such.

街中の広告ですね

All the lights. That's very big and I have never experienced that.

たとえばとにかく大きい電光掲示板とか

The toilets are very different as well.

あとトイレね

I have never used a bidet before.

ビデを使ったことがなかったんです

You mentioned the toilets, what surprised you about them?

トイレのどんなところがびっくりしましたか？

The fact that a lot of them are in the ground and

地面に掘られた形式のトイレですね（和式）

for squatting and stuff.

しゃがむタイプのやつです。

It's good though. It's better to squad when you go to the bathroom.

良いとは思いますが

It helps your body push it out easier.

あと見かけたのは

I think we can learn a thing in Canada from that.

カナダもそれを少し学ぶべきことで

The cleanliness of the bidets!

ビデ昨日はとても清潔だと思います

It's great to get everything washed away properly.

洗浄機能があるのは本当に良いですね

- And the heated seats. - Oh yeah that's the best!

-あと温かい便座！ -そうですね！

I love that and the fact that in a lot of the public ones

あと公衆トイレでもそうだったんですが、

there is a privacy setting that mimics a water sound.

プライバシーを気にしてくれる点もいいですね

So people don't hear you doing your business.

トイレの音を気にしなくていいとか。

Which is cool, I know that's a source of anxiety for me.

私にとってとても興味深かったですね

I don't want anyone to hear what I am doing in here.

トイレで何をしているのか聞かれたくないし

So I like that setting a lot.

とてもいいと思います。

The privacy is awesome.

プライバシーといえば

Here all the doors go right to the edge of the stall and

日本のトイレはすき間がないですね。

You don't have that weird gap where you think someone

例えばすき間からほかの人が見えることもないし、

might be creeping on you while you are going to the bathroom.

トイレに入るのが億劫にならないですね

It's awesome how the doors go all the way from the ground to the top

どういうことかというと、ドアが地面から天井まであることです。

you feel super safe in your own little bubble at the bathroom.

とても安心できますね

It's great.

良いですね

Some of those doors don't close properly in Canada?

カナダではドアが正しく閉じない？

Well pretty much...

ええ。多くの場合

Everywhere you go there is always a big gap between the ground

どこのトイレも何かしらのすき間があるんです

and the door.

地面とドアとか

There is also a gap between the lock and the stall.

扉の縁ですらすき間がありますよ

It's interesting here to have your own tiny private little room

でもここではとてもプライベート感があります

that you to go the bathroom in. It's nice. I like it.

私はとても好感を持てますね

You don't have to worry about people peeking under the stall.

覘き見されることもないですしね

I have had that happen to me in Canada before.

カナダではそういうこともあったんです

- Usually little kids. - Usually kids but...

-小さい子供とかですね -そうそう

It's still like... ok I am going to the bathroom...

ここはトイレだよーって（笑）

Japanese Whiskey.

日本のウィスキー！

That's very nice here.

とてもよかったです！

We have had a couple glasses of that.

何種類か飲んだんですけど

- You saw that for the first time here? - I drank it for the first time now.

-初めてみたものだったんですか？ -ええ。

- It's delicious. - What was the best one so far?

-おいしかったです。 -どれが一番でしたか？

Hibiki.

響

Yamazaki.

ヤマザキ

Squid. I guess. That was kind of creepy. I don't know.

イカ！奇妙でしたね

Tentacles, yeah it's weird.

触手的な。。。

- Where did you see it? - It was in a Sushi Restaurant.

-どこで見ましたか？ -お寿司屋さんで

- Was it a full squid? - It was just the tentacle parts of it.

-イカ全身でしたか？ -いいえ、ゲソだけでした

For me I'd say Yakitori.

私は焼き鳥です

It's not just chicken on a stick. It's chicken skin, and liver

普通の肉だけじゃなくて、皮とかレバーがあったことです

and all kinds of really weird stuff on a stick. That is kind of weird.

他にもいろんなものが串に刺さってましたね

It's still really good.

でもおいしかったです！

I don't like the skin but the other stuff is really good.

皮はちょっと苦手でしたけど他はすごくよかったです

We had octopus balls... tak tak...

あのタコボール。。。タコ。。？

Takoyaki. They were good.

タコヤキ！おいしかったですね

Very first time? - Yes.

-初めてでしたか？ -はい

We got Yakitori.

あと焼き鳥！

It said chicken so we were like OK.

鶏肉なんでよかったです

It's like EVERYTHING from a chicken so gizzard, liver ....

でも鶏の全部なんですね、レバーとか

It was definitely not beef. We realized that after we bit into it.

牛のではなくて、噛んだ瞬間にわかりました

But it's good to try new things.

でもチャレンジは良かったよね

When we got on the train from the airport to Akihabara...

空港から秋葉原に行ったときに

The seats on the train automatically turned around. It was very fun.

電車のシートが自動的に回転したことです！

I have never seen that before.

あんなの見たことなかったわ

- Were they turning while you were waiting? - They were cleaning the train.

-待っているときにですか？ -ええ。掃除するためにです

The train was going to go the other direction so they turned the seats.

あと逆方面に向かうからシートを回転させたんですね

I thought "Japanese people really like gadgets."

“日本人はガジェットが大好きなのね！”って思いました（笑）

I rode a train for the first time. In my country there are no trains at all.

人生で初めて電車に乗りました。 ホンジュラスには電車がないので

Right!

マジで！？

You've seen the Japanese trains. What's your opinion on them?

日本に車でなかったんですね！？ どうでしたか？

Very crowded.

混みすぎ！

- I am like "Oh noo"

-おおおおおのおおおお！みたいな！

Yeah it's getting very cozy with strangers.

知らない人にはキツイですね！

We noticed that people are allowed to wear whatever they want.

何でも着ていいんだなと思ったことです

That's something you can't do in Sweden.

スウェーデンでは見れない光景ですね

It's very conservative.

保守的なんです。

We really like that everyone can express their own style.

みんな自由にスタイルを表現しているし

I think that was the first thing, maybe.

それが私にとって日本で初めてびっくりしたことですね

I think the same. You can just relax and dress (how you like).

気軽に何でも着れる

For example people have school uniforms and we don't have them in Sweden.

例えば制服とかですね。スウェーデンにはないです

That's one more thing that you see a lot.

ここではたくさん見ますよね

Very beautiful school uniforms.

みんなそれぞれカワイイ制服で

Do you want to have them back home?

持って帰りたいですか？

I don't know. Maybe the cute ones.

可愛いのがいいですね！

What classifies as cute one?

どういったところが可愛いですか？

The ones with the short skirts and the puffy over shirts.

短めのスカートにふわふわのオーバーを合わせたり

A big puffy overshirt over everything. It looks adorable.

全部ふわふわしててカワイイです！

Anything else you can thing of? Things, items, goods you've seen for the first time?

他には何かありましたか？

Everyone has high heels.

みんなハイヒールを履いてることです！

We just walk around in these ones. I have had them for years.

私たちはこんなのですが、私はというと何年も履いてます（笑）

Flats.

フラットな感じの

Huge buildings like this one. There are also none in my country.

建物が大きいです！ 私の国にはないですね

Also how people interact with each other. That's also very different.

あと人付き合いでしょうか

What's different with the interaction?

どういったところが？

In my country when we meet people we hug each other but here....

ホンジュラスではみんなハグをするんですけど

What do we do? Uh.. hi!

日本では、“あー、はい”みたな

I think the cleanliness of the city. It's so beautiful here.

あと街がきれいですね。清潔です。

Everything is so pristinely kept.

とにかく街中がきれいですね

Which you don't get in NY or LA.

ニューヨークとかLAとは違います

Is there more garbage on the floor or what?

ゴミがそこらじゅうにある感じですか？

No garbage here.

ここはないですね

There are no fat people here. It's nice.

太っている人がいない

Right?

ほう？

I like to keep it tight.

私もそうなりたいですね

- Everyone is skinny here. - That's how it should be.

-みんな痩せていますから -ですね

- Game shops. - You mean game centers?

-ゲームショップ -ゲームセンターですか？

You don't have them in Denmark? -No.

-デンマークにはないんですか？ -ないですね

- Have you been to one yet? - Not yet.

-入ってみたことありますか？ -まだないです

- Will you go to one? - We think so yes.

-行ってみたいですか？ -ええ。

You can see that the culture is very different.

文化的に本当に違いますよね

The city is more alive than Copenhagen. A lot of lights.

コペンハーゲンに比べると街に活気があります。 電飾もたくさんありますし

More flashing lights and commercials? - Yeah.

-広告ですか？ -はい

Face masks.

マスク

Whenever you walk around you see a lot of people wearing face masks.

どこに行ってもたくさんの人がマスクをしてますね

Everything I'd see about Japan before I came here.

ここにきて初めての光景です

No one ever wore as much face masks as I have seen here.

私のところはマスクする人なんていないですから

It kind of freaked me out. Why are they wearing face masks?

なんででしょう？

Why do you think they are wearing face masks?

どう思いますか？

Just because they are sick?

病気だから？

They don't want other people to get sick from them.

病気をうつされたくないから？

We're not as courteous in America.

アメリカではこういったのはないですね

Sneeze all over everyone. Cough all over everyone.

鼻すすったり咳したりするから？

It's nice to have face masks.

いずれにせよマスクするに越したことはないですね

It's a lot cleaner in that way.

道も清潔ですね

Different cultures and stuff like that.

文化の違いがたくさんあることです

We are staying in Shinjuku.

今新宿に宿泊しているんですけど

It's very different there to here.

こことは全然違いますね

- The Shinjuku streets in general. - It's VERY different.

-新宿の通りとかですかね -全然違いますね

Have you been to the robot cafe yet?

ロボットカフェには行きましたか？

Not yet but this week maybe.

いえ、でも今週中どこかで

Those were all the questions, thank you so much.

以上です。ありがとうございました！

The thing most foreigners were surprised were actually the toilets.

ということで外国人の方々の反応はというと、トイレが多かったですね！

'Which is an answer we get quite a lot because they are so technical here.

すごく機能的なトイレが“お初”だったようです

They do all kinds of things, they play music,

音が鳴ったり、

they have a spray for your bum, they have a bidet, they have music...

ビデや洗浄機能、

heated seats. All the things you never thought you might need

温かい便座があったりと必要なものがありますね！

when you go to the bathroom.

温かい便座があったりと必要なものがありますね！

That's one of the big things.

日本のトイレ文化です！

One of the things that surprised me on the first day I came to Japan

私はと言いますと、

It was a thing I didn't find in textbooks and cultural TV programs about Japan

教科書にも教育番組でも見たことなかったんですが

The sun was up in the sky when I went into a store, I bought one little thing

太陽が出ている買い物をしている少しの間に

when I went out it was pitch black.
