No matter what others say, these things are definitely kawaii.
Seeing it is like stress release.
So looking at it!
It's cute but it's also an elegant cuteness.
That's what it transforms into.
Hey guys today we've come to Brilliant Star decorations
That is a Lolita fashion event for...
Japanese fashion. But this time it's not just Japanese fashion!
It is also Lolita fashion from around the world.
This time we are gonna go and ask the stylish guests
but also the brands,
What in their definition is actually "kawaii" (cute)
So let's go and ask Japanese... and international people.
What is kawaii in your opinion?
All things that you think are cute are actually kawaii.
For example?
I like clothes, I like Lolita fashion, I like makeup...
I also like cute stationary and such.
I like little things like this bracelet and rings...
So everything you think is cute, is kawaii.
No matter what others say, these things are definitely kawaii.
No matter what they say it's cute!
Of course.
All things that make my heart flutter, I exclaim in the word "kawaii".
What other people might perceive as "cool"
I might see as kawaii.
And that's why I will still exclaim them as "kawaii"
Some people think that butterflies are a cool pattern to wear.
But I will sum that all up in the word "kawaii".
All things that move my heart are kawaii to me.
Lolita fashion is a part of Japanese culture.
So going to events and places like these on Lolita tea parties...
it de-stresses me.
Things like this fashion, that make my life more fun, are kawaii.
I guess. Not sure if that makes sense in Japanese.
So kawaii things, make you feel at ease? - Yes that's it.
What relaxes you the most?
Wearing this fashion or meeting friends in it?
Just looking at the fashion makes me feel relaxed and at ease.
- Just looking is enough? - I like wearing it too of course.
But just seeing the clothes in my room and...
seeing the fashion at events like these makes me feel happy.
Things I think are kawaii, and places where kawaii people assemble like this event
Also wearing this fashion, and seeing others wear it...
It gives me lots of positive energy. That's it.
Kawaii things make me excitable.
What else is kawaii apart from fashion?
Cats!
I love Sanrio! So I love characters like Hello Kitty and My Melody.
Things that express kawaii like hearts and plushies.
I really like things like that and they are kawaii.
The lace and frill on Tripple Fortune dresses are super kawaii.
Cute girly things. - That's right.
Is there anything that stays kawaii no matter how old you get?
Or things you want to develop in a certain way.
Is there an age on kawaii clothes?
I don't think so.
I think kids in their teens and 20s have kawaii things they can express in that age.
And once you get older, you wear kawaii things that have an elegance to them.
I think it evolves.
Kawaii doesn't have an age limit to it.
Around me many older people who like kawaii things no matter of their age and express it.
Kawaii things don't have strict boarders and can be enjoyed at any age.
Bears are cute
It's cute that the corners of its mouth are going up like this.
we should all do the same and smile more to become more kawaii.
Are all plushies kawaii to you`?
Teddy bears are the most kawaii.
I actually make dolls, so I think dolls are the most kawaii things in the world.
What's cute about dolls?
I like the fact that they look alive even though they are not.
I just realized she has the same eye color as you and your clothes is similar too.
Yes I made that.
You are wearing a twin style coordinate with your doll? - Yes I am.
That's so cute.
So what is kawaii to you?
I like birds like this one. - Is that a train ticket case?
Yes it is. It's a bit rugged by now.
How do you feel when you carry kawaii things around?
I will happy and excited.
I usually carry my doll around with me. Then people will come and talk with me.
That makes me very happy.
People who also like birds, will come to talk with me about them.
They will ask me if I keep birds and maybe even become my friends.
So I become friends with people who also like birds.
It seems like, if you carry your favourite things with you, you make new friends.
There are also some people who want to take pictures together.
It makes me very grateful.
Where are you from?
I am from New Orleans USA.
I am from Japan.
We're asking today, "What's kawaii?" and "What's not kawaii?"
What's kawaii, in your opinion?
I think... Gizmo's kawaii~!
Kawaii things are things you personally like.
If you had to explain Kawaii to someone, what would you say?
If you had to explain the word 'kawaii' to someone, how would you explain it?
Definitely cute, but I think also...
bringing your own thing to it, like something you love,
or handmade items, yeah.
I think I would say that's kawaii.
Yes, good!
If I was asked what kawaii is, I would say "I like this, and that is why it's kawaii"
What do you like? Well, that thing will be kawaii to you.
Not cute things, are someone else's kawaii? - Exactly.
For example, I don't like iguanas, snakes...
frogs... but somebody else, "Oh, I like them!"
Different kawaii.
We all have our personal definition of kawaii.
Yes!
Where are you from?
Hello, I'm from Hong Kong.
I think it is to live in a style of what we want to be,
and to have freedom to choose what we like to wear.
In my opinion, kawaii is a type....
a type of experience that,
you can choose whatever you want to be.
For example, if you want to be a doll, then you can choose that.
If you want to be a robot, then you can choose a robot.
Just to make an example, you are very kawaii.
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
Have a nice day!
Okay, what is kawaii in your opinion?
Kawaii, many people describe it as something cute that comes from Japan.
That's why the exact same word. Kawaii has actually made its way into
dictionaries before as well, which I find quite interesting.
So, it is usually used to describe something cute
that comes from Japan.
Also, what I think, in my opinion, kawaii is something that makes
your heart beat faster, that makes you happy, and I love seeing people
who look at something that is cute.
And to see their eyes sparkle, to see how they're happy at that
and I think that's a cute moment to just experience someone
who experiences that joy of seeing something cute, that I really like.
So yeah, what about you, what do you think is kawaii?
What do you think is not kawaii? Let us know!
