As a half-Japanese and half-German person, I have lived the majority of my life in Germany. Although it's my home country, there are some aspects of German culture that I absolutely dislike. In this video, I'm gonna talk about the 5 things I hate about Germany.
Enjoy!

    - guy tells us germans complain too much - reveals as german a minute later, then goes on to complain about germans Ah, yes.
  • @lraamann
    As a German I can confirm that these points you mentioned are true... One only realizes the difference when coming from another country, it can be quite a shock 😅
  • @realobiwan
    As a german I agree and see many of these traits on myself lol. As example I would never in my life cross a red light, even at 3am in the middle of the night when no car is nearby
  • @moodz._.
    an actual informative person covering everything about a topic, another banger vid!
  • So war! I’m half German too and getting told to ‘gib gas’ when I’m riding the bike calmly in Germany makes me sort of happy to live in Spain…
  • @randy-kp7vm

    I live in Germany and can confirm many of these points but what I noticed it's mostly just phrases. I heard people say they gonna sue for this and that but never really got sued. Once the people get home and want to go through the process of e-mailing etc. they realise how not worth the effort it is and call it a day. The weather fcks me up though even though I love winter. I usually split my winter though. End of November, mid Jan and beginning March I fly to South East Asian countries for 2-3 weeks. So my winter is relatively "short" duo to the interuptions. During Covid I was forced to stay here and it was horrible but found a spot in Sauna Culture and since then I love winters. But I do try to shorten the winter season by leaving the country for a little bit. It's nice coming home in December with a tan.

    As someone who lives already 17 years in this country, I confirm that everything you just sad is absolutely correct and bothers me as well. Keep up the honesty! 👏👍
  • All your videos are great, I'm moving to Germany this month, for University of applied science in Koln, and I'm learning a lot for Germany from your videos :D keep up the great work, and subscribed 💪

    a nice example for the point that Germans love rules: There is §961 BGB in Germany, which describes who owns a swarm of bees that escaped from it's owner. As long as the owner chases the swarm, it belongs to him, and when he gives up, the swarm does not have an owner anymore!
  • @vmerc1068

  • @vikramaditya47_
    A large chunk of people still live in 20th century. I dont know why? But still I love Germany because it has given me a chance to study and research here.
  • @shaangaming350

  • @Ginkooo

  • @dylan5320
    The only thing that is stopping me from comng to Germay is unfriendliness or cold attitudes that Germans have (according to the internet),What about the young generation of Germany, like college students. Are they possessed with those manners and personalities as well ? 😢
  • @pakabe8774
    Let's start complaining: What I really dislike in Germany is the brake mentality of older generations. I am getting old myself, but there never have been a time where I didn't have to waste 99 percent of my energy to withstand these braking people. We really could have solved all actual problems in this country, if these majority would give up at least 50 percent of their braking force. But the bad thing is, older people don't give up braking, but young people give up to withstand at some point in their lives. And because Germans don't like if somebody is treated differently than them (even if it is by reason, like they really worked hard for it), the younger generation starts braking if they see much younger people who could have it easier than the new braking generation has had. I lived in Germany since my birth - for decades now - and I have never met anybody who sued anybody or got sued by anybody.

    Thanks for a great video, and I like how you use own experience as examples. You also explain these quite negative traits in a respectful way. I´m quite sure it would be possible to say a lot go good things about Germans as well. I´m from Scandinavia and recognise some of the same negative traits in my own country. I have been to Germany as a tourist a lot, and always found people generally quite reserved but never unfriendly or rude. I have been considering moving to Germany, Austria or Switzerland,. Now I start wondering if the same comments could be made about Austria and Switzerland.
