where they have all of their toilets on display and to help me out

A tech Otaku

Joseph!

Hey John, I'm not so much a tech Otaku but a TOILET OTAKU!

The first time I arrived in Japan, the first toilet I saw,

more bottoms than remote control on my TV back home

Incredible!

It is amazing!

Hey, I got a joke for you! Pull my finger

That 's the sign that we gotta go inside

Okay, let's go!

Toilet fever!!

Joseph and I have been looking forward to this for weeks

a chance to get intimate with some of Japan's most advanced toilets

Toto is the world's largest toilet manufacturer

and has been innovating since 1917

for toilet lovers like us

having access to their showroom is like paradise

if you're using a toilet inJapan

it's almost always a TOTO

there's a wide variety of toilets on display

and you never know what you're going to find around the corner

the best way to get to know a toilet is to..

well sit on one!

Joseph, this is the same size as a toilet in a Japanese house

yeah it's tiny isn't it? I mean I can't even stretch properly

yeah it's kinda small. But what's really cool is

I don't have to reach around to flush! I can just flush in this control panel

yep! there's so many buttons, the difficult thing is, which one you gonna press

yeah

Hey buddy, I'm out of toilet paper Do you have anything?

yeah

I don't see it

C'mon just come....

Here's a demo of a modern Japanese toilet in action

it's super eco friendly

older toilets wasted 13 liters of water per flush

but now TOTO has reduced it to only 3.8 liters

Japanese toilets are automated and convenient

with remote controls just like for a TV or video game

users have an amazing amount of control over their toilet

and its all on this wireless control panel

Washlet and bidet buttons

each sprays in a different angle

you can control the spray strength

Massage option and more

so although the toilet spaces kind of crammed,

The seat is nice warm, it's nice and comfy I think I kinda sit here all day

just enjoying myself

so you're finished with your business and you wanna relax a little bit longer

these toilets have a massage option! Just push the button

and let it go to work

some toilet even have a dryer

heated seats

massage! Wash & dry! This is the life

Wow! Check that out on a toilet!

It's a sink!

This is great, it's the ultimate water saving toilet

We really need this in...

toilet that consists of this is so amazing

this is a man's best friend

this is a public toilet

and it has a unique feature

that's the sound of running water

this feature is in women's restrooms and

and called Otohime in Japanese

It means sound princess

the purpose is to mask the sound that comes from

well you know, going to the bathroom

not only does it avoid embarrassment it's relaxing to listen to

kids have their own special toilet

let's try it

They're smaller and sort of cute

KAWAII!!! (cute)

there's a toilet for everyone. Big or small, Toto's got you covered no matter

who you are

so no matter where you are in Japan have a seat

and enjoy yourself, stay for a while

(when ) you gotta go, you gotta go
