The Land of the Rising Sun is like a whole other world full of unbelievable phenomena and weird traditions. Bright Side has collected a few fascinating stories shedding some light on the daily lives of ordinary Japanese people.
17. Job description: pushing people in the subway - Japanese subways have so many passengers during rush hours that there are special workers — oshiya — who push people into trains. The first oshiya were students who worked part-time.

hahahahaha

16. $24,000 for a couple of melons - Even Japanese square watermelons are not as expensive as Yubari King melons. At an auction in 2008, two melons were sold for $24,000. The reason for such a high price is the rarity of the fruit: these melons are grown in small amounts on the island of Hokkaido, and their harvest is immediately bought up by dealers.

15. Kit Kats with the flavors of sake,
wasabi, sweet potatoes, or chili pepper - The name of Kit Kat candies in Japanese
sounds similar to kitto katsu , or "you will
surely win." That’s why they are often given
to students as a good luck gift before
exams. As with many other foods, Japanese
Kit Kats have the most bizarre flavors, from
chili pepper and wasabi to green tea and
pear.

14. A café that sells tenderness - For an extra charge, men are allowed to lie with the waitresses, hug them, establish long eye contact, or stroke their hair — but no further! In Japan, a great deal of attention is paid to the visual side of things. For example, cafés where waitresses are dressed as pretty housemaids are currently very popular.

13. The widest assortment of trains - Trains that run on Japanese soil are richly
varied: vintage, double decked, super fast,
trains with no engine driver, and even trains
resembling cartoon characters such
as Thomas the Tank Engine. Subway trains
have special women-only cars safe from
men’s advances.

12. Vending machines that can sell anything - Vending machines are so popular in this country that you can buy the most unbelievable things from them — like common onions or a handwritten love letter.iii

11. A spa where you can splash in wine, sake, or coffee - An extraordinary place where you can not only swim in huge pools of wine, coffee, sake, or even bouillon but also drink them on the spot.

10. Pet robots for children - Getting a pet in Japan is a costly affair equivalent to buying a new car. Because of that, children are increasingly offered toy robots imitating house pets.

9. Sakura: beautifully edible - Sakura is Japan’s national flower and also a delicacy used to garnish desserts. Dishes featuring cherry petals are particularly popular in spring when the entire country is covered with a soft pink carpet of blooming cherry trees.

7. The fashion police is unheard of - Japanese street fashion is about bright colors, borderline things, and crazy designs. It is sometimes called a separate branch of contemporary art, where anyone can express themselves through combining seemingly incompatible colors and accessories.

6. Restaurants order plastic food - This is a distinct profession: specialists make artificial food indistinguishable from real food. It is made from powder or wax to be displayed on restaurant counters as samples for customers.

5. Nothing makes your smile more charming than double teeth - The “Hollywood smile“ in Japan is considered too open and provocative. Instead, the reverse is in favor: not just crooked teeth but building up and correction resulting in ”double teeth."

4. Landing a plane would be easier than coping with a toilet - The panel next to the toilet looks like the control panel in a spaceship. It has dozens of buttons serving to turn on the bidet or the shower, warm up the seat, and even regulate the music.

Sounds nice!

3. The weirdest museum with a sizeable collection - The entrance to the Toilet Museum is proudly decorated with a gold human- sized heap of poop and several sculptures in strained poses. The exhibits inside include a children’s slide shaped like a toilet bowl, a collection of artificial animal and human excrement samples, interactive exhibits, and funny hats. This is the world’s first feces- themed museum.

2. Ice cream with the flavor of noodles, meat, or beer - Tastes differ, but gourmets should definitely try Japanese ice cream in all of its diversity. It’s not even the fact that you can find ice cream with the flavor of noodles, beer, or horse meat that is surprising but that it’s sold at every corner and is in great demand.

1. An island ruled by rabbits - During World War II, a number of rabbits were brought to Okunoshima Island for secret scientific research. The program was later canceled, and the rabbits were set loose. They didn’t waste any time, and now the island is teeming with these creatures, attracting thousands of tourists.

Bonus: Bikini jeans This provocative hybrid of bikini and ultra low-rise jeans is actually produced in Brazil but finds its market mostly in Japan .
