Honestly, I’ve been living in Osaka for 3 years and still see tourists blocking the entire sidewalk to take group photos. It’s wild how unaware some people are. No hate, just learn the vibe.

Anyone else get roasted by an old lady on the train for talking too loud? Happened to me once and I wanted to disappear. This video is basically a survival guide lol.

Omg the no tipping thing is so true! I kept trying to leave a tip at a ryokan and the host looked so confused haha. Felt like an idiot.

Bro, the part about taking photos in front of the shrine gate with a peace sign hit too close to home lol. I actually did that on my first trip and felt so dumb after learning about the proper etiquette.

I visited Kyoto last year and totally agree with this. The way people just shove food while walking is annoying tbh. Anyone else think it’s just common sense to stop and eat?
