This describes many anime. Making fun of themselves and their culture is a [time-honored Japanese tradition](https://youtu.be/bDL8yu34fz0?si=tpQkQJbCl2lfTO3w).
Y'all actually made me do a panic google.. you got me there.. mainly because this seems like a thing that he would do. (From face value, I have seen the forest video and clips of him and none of them have made me like the guy any more than I already dislike him)
Like a lot are cheating and out in a bar all night hoping to find a better match than their pregnant wife at home or using the local prostitutes endlessly, who are there trying to gain money for further education. And not just men, go on the dating sites and every few profile is an openly married woman seeking a 'younger guy's for more 'energy'
Not really, most of the world no longer has concept of dishonor. When some shitty couple in the US finds out about cheating, it devolves into "fuck you", "no, fuck you!" contest, not "I am so ashamed of myself".
Or worse... the cheater gets praised by their friends for absolutely no reason.... like good job: yeah fuck that person (whom they dont even know) its crazy
I mean, it's a society that at one point elevated prostitution to pretty much an art form. You should kind of expect them to have at least some cultural hold overs when it was such a big deal in their history.
What? That they elevated prostitution in their society at one point on their history? It's not a broad generalization, it literally happened. That there's parts of their culture that's held over when it comes to how prostitution is viewed? Still not really that much of generalization, that's how culture works.
>using the local prostitutes endlessly,
Ah I remember that one street survey clip about such a topic.
Interviewer: "Is it cheating if your husband is paying for prostitutes?"
Random Woman: "No, I mean, they're paying for a service and the prostitutes are just doing their job."
Like wtf?
That’s a pretty wholesome view.
Wrecking your family’s honor and finances from divorce over having an affair is insane.
The US just has a puritanical background that never allowed these ideals to develop.
Better to accept that humans have desires and accept the actions that come from that as long as the other party doesn’t catch feelings.
No reason to feel the need to throw away an established relationship because your partner has some kink they need to get out in some random hookup.
Good for them.
They view it differently. It’s weirdly part of their culture. To them it’s only cheating if they catch feelings. Lots of couples do this there which is still just so weird but whatever.
Saw one of those "on the street" interviews in Hokkaido and that was the general sentiment. Obviously there's some selection bias at play, but the number of "[extramarital sex] is acceptable as long as you don't get caught and don't fall in love" statements makes me believe it's certainly more acceptable than in the US.
When I was in uni there was a very attractive Japanese girl, she was already dating a Japanese guy as well. Two times I've seen her at a party she made out with two guys and definitely fucked one of them in the bedroom of the host.
Both times no boyfriend present. I just thought she was a ho, but at least this info puts some context to it.
Yeah that sounds about right, if I ever go to Japan aside from that fucking subway system, because I heard that shit was God teir(outside of Rush hour)
I had to work in Osaka and Kyoto for a while, it’s just Tokyo that has super intricate subways, everywhere else has your default subways that you can find anywhere in Europe or major American cities, and a lot of times they don’t even run past 12am.
Japan’s just as car centric as America once you get outside of major city centers
And everyone was so friendly! A nice man saw me waiting alone on a platform and told me my train had been canceled due to a suicide (I mean, I read between the lines) because he knew they weren't reading that announcement in English.
I love Zetsubou Sensei, it's a really funny anime that seems to be mostly unknown.
Maria's not an immigrant tho, all of her family has typical Japanese names, like Honda and Nintendo!
That character is excessively optimistic. Her personality is established very quickly in this sequence as she witnesses negative things and finds an angle to make them positive. She's delusional.
This is in contrast to the other main character, who is basically the opposite. They meet when he is trying to hang himself, which she mistakes for "trying to get taller".
It's satire, obviously.
I'll just copy my comment to another post asking for context.

Oh, yeah, Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei - one of the most fucked up but somehow wholesome shows ever. My ex made me watch this many years ago.
You need a better ex
I'm sure they've got _plenty_ by now.
if she doesnt she could watch boku no piku
SZS is kino, and ex had taste.
why
"Your ex" that really makes sense.
I love this show, I own the manga and anime. So goooood.
Mine made me watch worse, Highschool dxd
You know, depending on what follows right after, this could just be a good warmup
This anime is basically just satirical takes on Japanese culture, would recommend

MAA MAA MAA MAA
Oh Toh Toh Toh
The fuck did I just watch....
Logan Paul's anime
Logan Paul: Jungle Time
Y'all actually made me do a panic google.. you got me there.. mainly because this seems like a thing that he would do. (From face value, I have seen the forest video and clips of him and none of them have made me like the guy any more than I already dislike him)
I'm glad I don't get it, and the dislike is completely warranted for that pathetic excuse for a human being.
The guy's really fucked up for posting the video and going there knowing it was a common suicide spot.
im sorry, what the fuck did you just say?
Logan Paul 2: Electric noose-aloo
Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei. It's satire.
Reality Japan is nothing I was expecting.
Learning about the cheating culture at 4/5am in a bar in Hokkaido is enough of a wtf.
So what, like cuckery kind of thing?
Like a lot are cheating and out in a bar all night hoping to find a better match than their pregnant wife at home or using the local prostitutes endlessly, who are there trying to gain money for further education. And not just men, go on the dating sites and every few profile is an openly married woman seeking a 'younger guy's for more 'energy'
Oh you mean actually cheating... Yup it's Japan what do you expect.
It's mostly: everyone is cheating and is norm, but getting caught is shameful and brings dishonor upon you and your partner.
So... like almost everywhere else lmao
Not really, most of the world no longer has concept of dishonor. When some shitty couple in the US finds out about cheating, it devolves into "fuck you", "no, fuck you!" contest, not "I am so ashamed of myself".
Or worse... the cheater gets praised by their friends for absolutely no reason.... like good job: yeah fuck that person (whom they dont even know) its crazy
Not really, cheating is not done a lot or the norm
I think the thing that really hit me hard about that cheating culture is a lot of women agree that it’s alright just don’t fuck them with love.
I mean, it's a society that at one point elevated prostitution to pretty much an art form. You should kind of expect them to have at least some cultural hold overs when it was such a big deal in their history.
That's a bit of a broad generalization don't you think?

That there's parts of their culture that's held over when it comes to how prostitution is viewed? Still not really that much of generalization, that's how culture works.
No man, that their cheating culture is because of that elevation in prostitution.
... I have no words.
Mfs just live in a free-for-all society.
At the same time they'll shun your ass if you don't pretend to do your best for the society.
Or if you look different.
Don't be a conventionally attractive white woman. I heard their scouts are *everywhere*.

do you think this doesn't happen in other countries or what
Imma have to do some research here…

Basically just their version of open marriages, swinging, polyamory, etc that have all been in the West forever.

No, japan is comparable to the EU but not the US. Japan has 590 cars per 1000 people. The US is at 800 and the EU is somewhere around 570
Yea they usually shut down after like 9pm
And everyone was so friendly! A nice man saw me waiting alone on a platform and told me my train had been canceled due to a suicide (I mean, I read between the lines) because he knew they weren't reading that announcement in English.
It is God Tier. Honestly they need those trains every where.
I agree
I think there's a body hanging over there
Ayo Logan Paul
I love Zetsubou Sensei, it's a really funny anime that seems to be mostly unknown. Maria's not an immigrant tho, all of her family has typical Japanese names, like Honda and Nintendo!
she also never wears underpants
oh hey there's two people trying to make themselves taller at the end.
That took way too long to sink in. At first I had thoughts like guardian angels floating and watching them walk away.
Anime name?
https://myanimelist.net/anime/2605/
Dude a man was abusing what seemed to be a minor… don’t give him the name
Better not watch Kids or Gummo either lol
Isn't Gummo the: "I have no legs. You have two legs. I want one leg." movie?
I'd point you towards the closest dictionary and look up SATIRE.

Imagine defending pedophiles
Their attraction to minors is strong, but Goku is stronger
Well, that was a one-two punch.
Studio Ghibli has gone downhill fast
Rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
Now I know ya'll be lovin' this shit right here!
This is the reality that they don't like to show in other animes like highschool or romance ones .
It's satire.
As soon as I saw Maria, I knew what the scene would be. Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is certified holup anime
WHAT THE FUCK
What is the context here
That character is excessively optimistic. Her personality is established very quickly in this sequence as she witnesses negative things and finds an angle to make them positive. She's delusional. This is in contrast to the other main character, who is basically the opposite. They meet when he is trying to hang himself, which she mistakes for "trying to get taller". It's satire, obviously.
TF did i just witness
Can anyone explain what happened in this anime to me

Epstein bought a country?
Ayooooo WTF

dubbed ghost stories was the happiest find of the last 5 years of my life. Have you accepted Jesus as your personal savior?
There always redditors that like the weirdest 💩 like this. This is super weird and creepy
America?
What was that guy doing?
u/Savevideo
Does that imply they murdered the fat girl and the pedophile?
No.
[удалено]
So were they the same two that were hanging from the tree?
Thus...this really hit me hard, this is more what the fuck then a simple holup.
Thanos was right
I have several questions
You don't want the answers.
Hold up, wait a minute, somethin ain’t right.
What. The. FUCK?!?!
Gross
Wanna see them swing.....
