With Norm again. [Norman]: Hey guys [Sharla]: So there's a surprise for me today. It's Sunday

I've actually never been to Akihabara on a Sunday and Norm just told me that they don't let cars in here on Sundays

So you can see everyone's walking on the road. I've never seen that before

[Norman]: It's crazy [Sharla]: This is cool, it's so much better

It's nice because there's so many people here, but there's room for them because we can walk on the roads. I like it

We have a special episode for you today, so our creepy

Vending machine video did quite well, and we got lots of requests to buy more boxes.

So we're right back today, and we're gonna buy ten boxes and

Somebody said, "but what if they're all crackers?", and I'm like you know what, I'd be okay with that. Those were some good crackers

Hey, can't complain

So that's what we're doing today, let's head there now!

We're back, the vending machines are in sight

So for those of you that missed our creepy vending machine video, we found these vending machines that have

Mystery boxes wrapped up in paper that has a creepy story on it

It was something really strange

About like...

Let's go look at one

[Sharla]: I totally forgot. [Norman]: Let's go take a peek at a box.

[Sharla]: "A long time ago, there were- there was an old couple who didn't get along very well.

The grandpa lied and said he was going to work when he was actually cheating on his wife with a kyabakura girl (Japanese hostess)

And the grandma lied and said she was going to do the laundry,

But she was actually cheating with Ken at the laundry shop. Both of them lied to each other and lived a happy life

So that's the kind of story you'll find on these boxes. They're really random.

[Norman]: And each one of them a little bit different.

[Sharla]: Yeah, yeah they're all very different. Some of them were a lot stranger than others

So I asked you guys on Patreon to vote on which boxes I should open

I'm gonna choose two from each machine for a total of 10 boxes

Hannah- "39 down there in the corner's creepy as fuck." Alright Hannah. We're gonna open up number 39

Box 39 is ours. Looks like it's got a good story too

Alright Krystal, next we're going to purchase box number 43

Alright, we're gonna splurge a little and go for the $10 box- box number 23

What could possibly be in here that's worth $10

[Norman]: Oh no!

[Norman]: Sharla's losing all the boxes!

[Norman]: YouTuber struggles

Alright, time to pack these up and head somewhere to see what's inside

[Norman]: Oh, there we go Sharla

[Sharla]: It's like Christmas!

[Norman]: Worst Christmas ever!

[Norman]: Alright, it's gonna be a happy cracker Christmas. We've actually found ourselves a nice spot up here

I was insisted on this being the background, but Sharla's very concerned with the wind with this camera

So I'm gonna stop talking now and go back to Sharla's video

[Sharla]: So we're at box number one. This one's really heavy, was this the expensive one? [Norman]: I think that was the expensive one.

[Sharla]: Let's save the expensive one

Start with this one- light and small. Sometimes there's a bonus story taped to the back, and I'm- not quite sure why. [Norman]: *Whispers* Bonus story

[Sharla]: Shall we read the bonus not- story?

[Norman]: I think almost all of them actually have some kind of like bonus story taped to them now. Is it the same story, or is it like

expansion

[Sharla]: So I'm gonna read like the first sentence of each story

I might not read them all, this video might be an hour long, but "I ordered an omu rice at a family restaurant"

[Norman]: It's not the most exciting start to the story, (I'm pretty sure) she's going to add more

[Sharla]: "And on the bottom of the plate when I received, there was a damp towel

Alright

[Norman]: Hopefully, it's not a damp towel

[Sharla]: Oh?

I see a little character [Norman]: Maybe it's animal crackers?

From the 70s?

[Norman]: I think it is animal crackers actually. [Sharla]: It is animal crackers!

[Norman]: Check the expiry date, if it's like, if this thing is from the 70s. I'm like buying a lottery ticket today

[Sharla]: 2018 April [Norman]: I'm not buying a lottery ticket

[Sharla]: This is the one where the chicken says "cock" on it

They changed it to "rooster". They must've gotten complaints.

This box comes with a free English lesson

I'd say that was worth my five dollars.

Box number one- animal crackers

[Norman]: Wow [Sharla]: We're skipping this one, too many kanji. [Norman]: Holy heck, this is heavy

[Sharla]: The actual story on the box is a little too erotic for YouTube

[Norman]: I think you should save the stories and send them to your Patreon, like reward

Like with like, you write a message or like the translation on the back

And then sign it

[Sharla]: Who wants the story

Leave a comment. Oh this one has two stories on the box. [Norman]: Yeah. Yeah, I saw that [Sharla]: Alright

I will save the stories, and I will find something to do with them later

[Norman]: She really looks like she's opening Christmas gifts

[Sharla]: This is fun.

I've never even heard of this snack

Box number two.

Ooh this one is heavy too. Now I'm confused as to which one was the $10 one

This one's so much longer than all the other stories.

[Norman]: So you can just go ahead and pause and read the...

[Sharla]: I just read like a tiny little part of this one and it says like

"The girl pooped her pants"

That's enough

It's enough for that one.

[Sharla]: As we were taking these boxes out, a whole bunch of Japanese people showed up

Actually, there are at least five people in there, and they were looking for boxes, they were like " What're these?"

"Oh, these are some erotic stories"

They're just like, really confused

And they stood there for about ten minutes trying to figure out what the heck these boxes are. [Norman]: Like a lot of people were coming by

[Sharla]: As I purchased a bunch of them, it looks like

[Norman]: *GASPS* Best box ever!

[Sharla]: KitKat! I'm

giving this to Keyboard-san for Christmas

Box number three

[Norman]: The bonus stories are insane

[Sharla]: I just want to know why, what's the point of the story

"The taxi story"

"Taxi drivers have a hard job"

(Reading the Japanese)

"Some bad customers bring their dogs in the car and

As they're paying, they forget their dog and leave it in the car."

[Norman]: What?

[Sharla]: Okay

[Norman]: I don't think that's just a bad customer. I think that's just bad

[Sharla]: Oh I think this is the first box I got. I remember it cuz it was all like wrinkly and old and gross looking

This is creepy box- I think number 39 from the first machine

It's more animal crackers! [Norman]: Oh man, you gonna be able to make like a full farm

[Norman]: Who wants Sharla to make a stop-motion video with all the animal crackers

Box number four

"20 years ago, when I used to work at a coffee shop, this old man from- who spoke in Osaka-ben (Osaka dialect)

Yelled at me and asked if this cup of coffee and this piece of toast is enough to fill him up for breakfast

[Norman]: Probably wasn't

Have you ever been to like- have you ever been to like a Japanese old-style kissaten (tea room)

[Sharla]: No they- they just gave me like a piece of bread. [Norman]: Yeah, yeah

[Sharla]: One piece of bread.

[Norman]: I took my little sister to the one like two years ago, and it was like

seven or eight dollars

And she's like "I'm gonna get the pancakes!" and like the look on her face when the pancake came out. It was like this big

It was like that

[Sharla]: I'm not a fan of those- No it's Pick Up again!

Should I just leave one of these like under the tree for my husband

Because I don't think he watched that video

So he got no idea what it is.

Eww. This was gruesome

It's talking about a car accident that happened yesterday and the

The taxi driver broke his collarbone

One passenger died, one's in a coma

[Sharla]: Right

[Sharla]: Merry Christmas [Norman]: That got dark quick

[Sharla]: That's a new one. Oh, Oh what's this?

[Norman]: Never heard of [Sharla]: From the 70s- chocolate bats

It comes with a card

Oh! We've got to open this one. Apparently

You might win a $5 bookstore gift certificate

No, oh

It's only choco bats

This one's really boring, it's talking about politics

*Gasps*

Yes!

Yes! Yes!

These are the ones I wanted

[Norman]: If you haven't seen the last video,

The last video, Sharla got really really lucky, and the box that she bought had these vegan crackers in them

[Sharla]: BOX NUMBER SEVEEEEEN!

Those are really good crackers

They taste just like Ritz crackers

I don't want to get demonetized!

[Norman]: Use bluffy language

[Sharla]: "When I-" Okay

"When I was in high school there are about 40 people in my class, but I had this one classmate named Satoshi

He used to eat anpan and smoke cigarettes and take his wee-wee out in front of the girls"

[Norman]: Satoshi sounds like a stand-up guy. I wonder if Satoshi's watching this video. [Sharla]: Are these true stories?

Do you think they are true stories?

I bet they are because like, where would you come up with this stuff

[Norman]: Yeah and like- [Sharla]: Nooo!

[Norman]: If you're gonna make something up like, pretty sure you'd make something better than that.

[Sharla]: It's another box of cheese Pick Up

Please give me a different flavor, these come in a different flavor

Box number eight.

Something about a 90 year old grandma wearing rehabilitation pants

KITKATS!

Merry Christmas.

Okay last box

"There's a country that's trying to remain as peaceful as possible so they banned wars and

weapons", and then just like

quickly reading over it it starts talking about Shinkansen and DNA and

terrorists

[Norman]: I feel you skipped like all the parts that connect back

[Norman]: Alright last box

This is it. This is like THE box, the heavy one. [Sharla]: Oh, I see red, does that mean Kit-Kats?

[Norman]: I don't think it's Kit-Kats

[Sharla]: It is!

Two boxes of Kit-Kats!

[Norman]: And they're taped together?

[Sharla]: Of course they're taped together

Would you expect any less from this man?

Alright, this is my haul- all 10 boxes

Can't say I'm disappointed

Got lotsa Christmas presents for my husband and for my friends
