LD's Guide to Japan


I’m pretty sure I posted about this video series a few years back when they were released, but they’re worth mentioning again: “The Japanese Tradition” is a series of videos made by a fairly well-known Japanese comedy group.  They are made to point out the everyday absurdities in the Japanese way of life—kind of in the same way Seinfeld was famous for in the US.

The above video is a guide to the Japanese art of bowing, which is a very big part of everyday life here.
