Japanese YouTube channels for interesting topics?

Are you listening and watching Japanese YouTubers who present interesting and quality content? I'm hooked on world traveler Bappa Shota, who treats global issues with great sensitivity. Although he appears to speak a few different languages, most of his narration is in Japanese. Which Japanese YouTubers do you recommend for interesting and insightful content?

    One that I love is Takashii from Japan ---> https://www.youtube.com/@takashiifromjapan He interviews foreigners in Japan on a whole range of topics, such as racism in Japan, how people have learned the language, or the experiences of people who have grown up half-Japanese. I find it really interesting to hear about people's lived experiences and his interview style is very relaxed.

    @genkidesu I had a look at Takashii's channel. It's got many interviews in Japanese. Thanks for recommending him. I guess my question wasn't phrased right. I'm looking for Japanese-speaking YouTubers with quality content. I'm interested in history, economics, philosophy.

    @TonetoEdo Oops! I thought you meant run by Japanese nationals in English, so I missed the mark! I like https://www.youtube.com/@marutakeebisu-travel but it's history with a travel focus.

    @genkidesu I'm listening to the episode about Nagano now while I putter. I see the name of the channel is Japanese History Journey. The conversational approach makes it easy to understand the hosts. Thanks for the recommendation!

    Not sure if you saw this, but the Imperial Household is on YouTube now! https://www.youtube.com/@Imperial_Household_Agency_jp They only started the account at the beginning of April and it already has over 100,000 subscribers.

Where do you visit Santa Claus?

Firstly, do you visit Santa Claus each year in Japan? And if so, where? I've been posting places you can meet Santa Claus in various parts of Japan on the blog section. If you are looking for somewhere to meet him this year, you'll find at least 25 places on City-cost.

Did you feel the December 8th earthquake?

There was a large earthquake off the coast of Aomori Prefecture at 11.15 pm on December 8th 2025. We are approximately 700 kilometers from the epicenter, yet we felt it very strongly. Did you feel it and how far away (roughly) are you from the epicenter?
