    Jonathan the Manga Boy would have gotten all these questions correct and started asking questions back.
  • @groofay
    That question about life expectancy, when Japan is second place, was evil.
  • @johnrhogan2908
    I think Joey should do more of these videos, to test people's knowledge about Japan. Just pick a different area than the West Coast, if possible.
  • @ougi_rk
    Dude this sponsor segment is hilarious., thank you the manga Lad for this amazing entertainment.
  • @link6913
    The nervous people are so relatable. I would be sweating bullets if Joey was quizzing me 😅
  • @acmenipponair
    The question with "city" about Shibuya is by the way absolutely correct: Shibuya is legally a city, all 23 wards are cities, as the City of Tokyo was dissolved into 23 cities in 1946. That's why their is not a mayor of Tokyo, but only of Shibuya, Shinjuku etc. and a governeur of Tokyo
  • Anime Man is truly putting American knowledge to the test here.

    Loved this! Lots of fun. The girl who won was so adorable and I'm happy for her❤🎉
  • @ShadowDaPk
    14:21 Oda Nobunaga was not "A Shogun" (because that was one person title) but he was A Daimyo.
  • @sarahheartss
    Hey Joey, I don't usually comment on yt videos, but I love these videos. It's really refreshing to see this kind of content and I love seeing how you engage with your fans/the public! Would love to see more :)
  • @alcades93
    Joey should do more of this video. this video had me smiling throughout. it is fun to see the hot takes of other fans in the video too.
  • @temporamen
    Josh the manga lad is back! Great to see a main channel upload!
  • @stelioshz
    10/10 but almost got me with the life expectancy. Really wholesome video, watching Joey interacting with fans. Would love to watch more videos like this.
  • @galeon_3699
    Woah! that was a really great video. You should do more videos like these.
  • Who else relates most to the girl who was actually really smart but just so nervous it made all answers seem awkward/short of breath?
  • @firefangz
    What was a sick video Joey! Absolutely killing it lately bro.
  • This was a fun video, I'd definitely be interested if you did more street interview style things
