Controversial Japan

Japan is a prime example of collectivist culture while western countries put emphasis on the individual - such polar opposite mindsets. Misunderstandings and confusions are bound to happen when these two perspectives collide. Every episode we unpack one controversial opinion about the Japanese mindset, culture, and custom through stories and interviews. Join host Kaho Koda as she dives into her own culture and attempts to make sense of the disconnect between the Japanese and Western point of view.Produced by Human Burrito ProductionsWritten and hosted by Kaho KodaSound design by JunanCover art by Macie MatthewsTheme song by Mikara

    No Japanese No Service

    “I’m on a holiday. I’m there for the experience, right? But there are other people living their lives. My experience just intrudes in their lives, basically.” says Rutger, a Dutch man who visited Kyoto as a tourist. Rutger and (host) Kaho Koda visited Kyoto together back in 2018.

    Girl Power

    “I feel like it’s almost harder for a woman to be supported by other women in Japan to some extent because I don’t think it’s a common idea that Japanese women want to change their conditions for themselves.” says Fanny, a French woman living in Japan. In this episode we talk about feminism in Japan. Do you know the word 「女子力」 (read as ‘jyoshi ryoku’)? It directly translates to ‘girl power’ but it’s not what you think it means.. Support the show

    Don’t Say I Love You

    “You don’t say I love you. You don’t give your mom a hug at the end of the day. Like I feel really awkward doing that. And it’s something that I tried to change at some point in my life. But I think my mom didn’t feel comfortable with it as well when I started to try hugging her and saying things. So I kind of stopped... Oh my gosh, have you ever said “Aishiteru” to your family? ” asks Natsumi, a Japanese woman living in Japan. We’re going to get super intimate and talk about host Kaho Koda’s...
