What?

An episode all in Japanese.

So a whole day where we just talk in Japanese.

Tomorrow? Tomorrow we're going to do it!

OK?!

And if it's something very important we'll say it in English, but we're going to try it in Japanese!

[Life in Japan Theme Song]

I'll make coffee.

Good morning to everyone who is watching

Rebecca, please set the table.

And Anna is... cleaning.

Will you eat breakfast?

Dad, will you eat? Yes!

Thank you

Ah! Japanese!

Rebecca, don't touch it! Hurry up!

Hurry!

Daddy too! Bye bye.

That looks delicious!

Delicious?

Delicious.

Anna, what will you drink?

Sarah! Good morning! Good morning!

Joshua, good morning!

This drink is called Mommy's drink.

Don't eat. Pray first.

Daddy please. Who? Me?! OK

Let's pray?

Loving Heavenly Father, thank you!

Thank you so much for this wonderful day and this great food.

In Jesus' name, amen.

Let's eat!

Daddy's also drinking orange juice.

What are those orange things and white things?

Those are eggs, you know?

Joshua has his sports day soon, you know?

What is "sports day?"

Sports! Sports day! Yea, good job!

Sarah, do you have a sports day? Yes.

You do? When?

November 7

November — that's late, isn't it?

It's super close to our birthday!

Isn't it? It really is.

Preparing for school...

Yes.

Becca, what are you doing? I'm researching.

Look — a new book! "Everyone's Japanese 2"

I got a box.

What's in it?

Is it good?

Let's go?

Oh yeah, maybe we're going to get to school too fast!

We're going to get to school too fast.

Guys, Japanese!

Yeah, too fast, right?

Maybe. Maybe?

We were running the whole time. The whole time!

But why?

We were scared.

We were running away from Daddy.

Oh really?

Bye! Bye! See you later.

When you come home in Japan...

I'm back!

Welcome home!

There's Big J! Hey dude!

Oh! Japanese!

Hey Dude!

Today is box day, right?

Box? It sure is, isn't it?

So many boxes!

Today I'll throw them out.

A lot of plastic.

Hey, cool shoes.

Joshua's getting ready!

Wonderful!

You got this!

Almost there! Almost there!

Almost there! Almost there!

A little bit more!

Mask.

Put on your mask.

Hat.

Put on your hat.

OK, see you later!

For my job, I use a lot of English.

But Ialso use Japanese.

Every Tuesday Ruth has an awesome Mother's Group.

They always meet at Paz Coffee Shop.

We drink coffee, have fun and talk about how to be a better mother and wife.

If you're a mother, please come!

We meet every week from 10:00 am to 11:30 am.

Ruth's back! And the ladies group was? Good!

Let's eat! Where though?

Futakotamagawa.

OK let's go.

Well, I have a handful of things to try on, a bunch of them on sale.

Mario.

Joshua's favorite

We bought lunch, now we'll go home.

It's delicious.

Close your eyes!

Sarah! Welcome back home!

I'm back.

And school was?

Sarah What?

It was fun.

What is it? Look...

Sarah... and Rebecca and Anna

Whose is this? Yours, Sarah

Sarah, did you make this cookie for me?

Really? Really.

I Love You

What are you eating? Lucky Charms.

Lucky Charms! Looks yummy!

I'll drink coffee and have my cookie.

Welcome home! We're home.

How was school? Good.

Everything Japanese?

A little English with Sarah.

On the way to school I accidently talked in English with Sarah. I forgot!

Was it fun?

Kind of. Japanese wore me out.

Can I eat some Lucky Charms?

Yes, go ahead.

Sarah, what are you doing?

Today we can only speak Japanese. That's right!

Great! Go for it!

That's for us — for you anything goes.

You got this, Sarah chan! You got this! Sarah, can you do it? You can do it!

How is Japanese only day going?

Does your head hurt a little?

? Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes. ?

Wonderful!

It's wonderful, isn't it?

Washing dishes

How many minutes will it take?

About 10 minutes.

Where are we going?

Seria? Not Seria.

Gap? Not Gap.

DAIEI!

Soon Daiei will be torn down!

DAIEI!

So now it's CHEAP!

Can we sing in English?

You can sing in English, yes!

It's raining!

Our driver for today — driver right? — is Ruth!

Mom, when we get back home, if we can, can we build a fort with the umbrellas outside and study?

Anna's filiming the video now.

Dad's over there, Mom's driving,

Little sister is over here,

Little brother, Joshua kun, is over here,

Rain!

It's Daiei.

A long time ago it was a popular place, you know.

But now, it's kind of sad.

Wow!

Switch games! Switch games?!

Is there something you want?

Mario Maker I don't like it.

Is there one that you want? Is there? What want...

Oh, Paper Mario?

A New Minecraft... I don't like it.

What do you want? A waterbottle.

It's here — water bottles.

This is for coffee though...

Oh — that right there — a watter bottle.

OK everyone!

It's a good feeling, coming back home!

It is.

Hey everyone, homework now please! Homework!

The new thing this year is washing masks.

What homework do you have? Science and Kanji

That's good! I wasn't really trying.

And Becca's studies are?

I'm investigating global warming comprehensively.

I like to read and reply to the various comments

All of it is in Japanese, I have many Japanese friends. Thank you!

Ah Sarah, are you tired? Yes.

Ah Sarah, are you tired?

Congradulations! For what?

This day is over! All done!

This day is over! All done!

Hey people of my heart — today we can talk in English again! Finally!

Finally?!

Wasn't it fun to talk in Japanese though? You're so good at Japanese!

It's hard to understand you, though! Yeah, I bet!
