I Rented a Japanese Grandma for a Day

In Japan, rental services for a japanese girlfriend or japanese boyfriend have been around, but I recently noticed that you could rent a Japanese grandma for the the day and it got me interested.
Apparently, you can ask her to act like she’s your grandma and do stuff together, help out with house chores, attend family events, or simply ask for life advice, basically anything within reason. So in this video, I share my experience with you renting a Japanese grandmother for a day and the first thing I asked her to do was make me a traditional Japanese bento which later we’ll be taking to the park later for hanami to enjoy the Cherry Blossoms.

You can rent a grandma in Japan?
Yummy
@@KZheadtail YOU THINK RENTING A GRANDMA IS YUMMY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
@@alaskamadelin1236 what are you try to say? I don’t understand you lol
@@KZheadtail do you think renting a grandma is yummy in Japan?
Loved this. What an amazing idea. I love how she cooks for you… who doesn’t love Grandma’s cooking. I agree with most comments. What a regal lady.
Its actually a really good idea tbh. The grandma gets to spend time interacting with others, making her feel less lonely. Seems like a win win to both parties.
She wins money + company so double win
stay creepy Japan
not gonna lie,it kinda made me feel disgusted,yeah she makes a living but doesnt feels normal
@@lebedev6954respect everyone culture, you dont live there if it bother you go live on sentinel island
@@asgaming2019 i dont even get to go anywhere else then my village,yeah i should respect culturrs but everyone should not take the respect directly,they should earn it,for example,i dont have to respect everyone,not everyone have to respect me
I could not let her go, she’s such a sweetheart. They say a lot of jobs like this are because they are lonely or want to be part of something bigger.
Me too
What a great job liked this one.
I know!! Same!!
I initially found it weird, but it does make a lot of sense.... the kids move away and you don't see the grandkids as much as you want. Even my Nana does that, she moved back east and gets antsy if I don't text for a few days ^^;
This is both heartwarming and a little sad. Honestly I’ve give just about anything to spend one more day with my grandmother.
and more than a tad creepy!
@@89. that too. 😂😂
Me too, not to mention my mother, my father, and my older brother who just passed. Ask those questions now people as the ones who can answer them may be gone tomorrow!
Same..at 42, I have only my mother alive in my tree. I wish I had spent more time with my grandmas
@@jeremymitchell5178 The relatives I now have questions for are all gone. Do yourself a favor, and think long and hard about questions you might have that only your mother can answer.
Never have i expected a Paolo video to have that title 😂
Looks good!
Grandma is amazing!!! This service does alot to connect people and share knowledge and heartfelt memories. Beautiful
This is so beautiful. Love this. Thanks for sharing. Also a great way especially for foreigners to experience the culture and get an authentic look to really learn from a real person with real stories! Great service with this beautiful lady. ^_^
Such a lovely lady! I wish I had my grandparents alive 😢
It is lovely to see Paola getting along well with grandma!
there's something about grandma and grandpa life stories that makes you wanna intrigued and wanna know the whole story to the end.
This is lovely video.
the flower throwing on your face 🤣
So cool...I love it! Old people really have alot to share and are very informative and intellectual about life. ❤❤❤
Awesome!!
9:46 LOL not you riding the spring rider 🤣🤣 was not expecting that haha, too funny
This seems great! I’d love to do something like this!
Props to Maiko for allowing Paolo to be a wild boy.
Now this is the quality content I come for. This is such a unique experience!
Glad you liked this video!
Whoa how?vid 20 mins ago but reply is 3 hour ago😂😅
Where did you rent one?
This comment 15 hours ago and the video was uploaded 12 hours ago.
@@TheRandomVideos_YT sometimes youtube recommends unlisted videos accidentally which causes this to happen.
This granny is so pretty 🥺🥺🥺
She's so pretty. Grandma's are the best!!
awesome video 😊
I feel like this rental family thing would make for an interesting anime premise
This is so heartwarming 🤗
Great video! I love her reaction @3:04 :)
This is a great video
I’ve heard of renting a boyfriend or girlfriend in Japan, but never a grandma. She seems so sweet! I haven’t personally seen my maternal grandma since I was 12 years old, so this was so heartwarming to watch.
There’s renting a family also.
You can rent a uncle to
@@Yxl_Wataru You can rent a fat guy as well.
I would love to do that. All my grandparents are now deceased. There is something special about the age and wisdom of older generations ❤
There are plenty of elderly that would welcome your attention. ❤
Yup I always wonder what I would give to speak with my grandparents one last time
Very cool Paolo. And very interesting.
Love watching your amazing video when you upload. I have a suggestion about a video japanese futon.
Love this ❤
She's so sweet.
This is a great way for grandmas to make money. They get to hang out with young people and stay young.
She's great! You should do more videos with her
OMG! I wish they offered that where I live. I lost both of my grans last year and I miss them. This is amazing. She seems so sweet.
Stoooooop!!!! I love this so much!!
Do culinary tour with her next time! Could be interesting journey
I loved this video.😻
I would love to rent a mum or grandma, in a world of loneliness, its such a beautiful thing 🤗
Beautiful idea, love the grandma ❤
What a charming lady. Great episode!👍
At 75, grandma is so beautiful and she looks so healthy 😇
it's all those omega 3s from their heavy fish diet swear it makes them all live over 100 lol
Made me miss my 2 grandmothers. One passed in 2001 when i was 7 years old. The other passed in 2016 when i was 23.
I loved watching this video. Rent a grandma? seems super cool. I wish we had that here in the states. Glad to see that you both had a awesome day together. 😀😀😀
day in the life of erina and junya please🤭
So hilarious love it😂😂😂
Can you hire a cook like this in Japan to make dinners for you? Be amazing and she can make enough so she can eat too
Wasn't Maiko's grandma available?
Grandma even drinks beer!! 😮😮 shes awesome! Shes lived a great life. Wow
I LOLed when she threw the petals in the air and it went onto your face hahaha so cutee!!
This is so awesome 😊 so cute😊
Wow, grandma knowledge is fire. Her comment about cast iron pan and anemia is true!
Aww she seems really sweet.
The food was good because it's made with Grandma's love.
☺Pablo with grandma on the playground and with the Sakura is so cute😅.
I wish I could taste food made by my grandma again man I miss her this video was so wholesome
A great video :)
Makes me want to rent a grandma in Japan. Oba chan was so sweet and helpful
This is so awesome and heartwarming, I would love this! The only grandmother I had growing up wasn't very good and only favored her other daughter, my aunt and her son. The rest of the grandkids weren't important. I did "adopt" my own Grammy when I was a teenager and she was so much fun! Even when I was a kid, I've always preferred being around older adults than kids. At my old job I worked with a lot of older adults, as well as adults with disabilities. My favorite part of my job was visiting the different senior centers. I was often invited to their congregate meals and many had retired chefs in the kitchens. The conversations and the stories they shared were sometimes wild!
I miss cooking with my grandparents. This would be a great idea to allow people to connect who would otherwise be lonely.
Love this.
What a total sweetheart and a good cook.Who kmew renting a grandma would be so fun and not as weird as I initially thought 😀
This needs to be a thing in the States!! I miss my grandparents and this would be awesome! Especially for millennials and Gen Z young adults who miss their grandparents. 🥺❤
She is adorable!
amazing video ❤
She was adorable!!!
I would find it hard to say goodbye to her. And if I saw her in public from this time on I would greet her as grandma
This video was very fun to watch. Rented Grandma was very nice ❤
Brillian idea!! Loved this video. She is so sweet! =)
I would love this service
Oh wow, this is really cool! How much does something like this even cost?
For guests who have tasted the sauce, offer them tea or water.
Awesome videos for Japanese Grandma. 👵 ❤ 😄 😀 😊 😍 Excellent job, Paolo.
Well, i didn’t’ plan on crying today but here we are. This video reminded me so much of my time with my Nanna and the great conversations we had and the advice she gave me as a young man. She was my best friend and I miss her so much.
I miss my Japanese grandma. She died 6 years ago. She was awesome
So nice that you can do things like this because if you're a lonely person and you have nobody it would certainly make you feel wanted and loved even if it was a rented grandma I think this idea is super cute
9:47 had me chuckling
Oh, i need to start use and care my cast iron pan
I went to Hakone in April of 2015, unfortunately, that spring was extremely rainy and cold.
What a nice lady. Would love to have a Japanese grandma
First thing would be to give a hug then bake something then take many photos of us together with our accomplishments ❤
Upload more videos on the series of "day in the life of ......"
I can’t wait to see my Japanese grandparents soon next month. I am flying to Tokyo airport on Monday 6th May. It had been 5 year since 2019 as Japan was very hash rule for Covid lockdown.
New manga serie, Rent-a-Grandma just dropped
It is not a manga
That would be entertaining, no lie. A funny slice of life manga would slap
That would be so much better than Rent A Girlfriend ngl 😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏
@@alaskamadelin1236 no shit sherlock
Hentai?
This is such a nice service. Sadly, not everyone would have access to such a nice and loving grandmother. In my case, my grandmother died when I was very young so I don't really remember my interactions with her. I only remember her from photos. If I were in Japan right now, I would probably rent her service just to experience having a Japanese grandmother - someone who lived a different culture and era from me. On a macro perspective, this would be a great way for young people of Japan to personally know of grandma figure, who they normally may not have access to due to their circumstances. Thank you so much for sharing this day with us Paolo
she is so beautiful at 75!
She's lovely! ❤
This channel should blow up after people been watching shogun out here in the states
She is amazing. 😻
I love this ❤
I would do what you did. Ask about history. Everyone has a different perspective of the times and it's interesting to see not only their view but also how things have chnaged
The food she made looked really good looks like she knows what she's doing in the kitchen.
Best video ever :D :D Totally would rent a Japanese grandma!!
I wish my grandma was here 😢
I smiled this whole video!
What a lovely idea!❤🇨🇦
I’m in ❤❤❤ (grandmas make everything better) experience
Do a rental grandpa episode!!! 😂 (btw I would so want her job!)
I have a Japanese mother-in-law, and a grandmother-in-law (she’s almost 100), and they are great.
When will the mild sauce come out? I have and love the hot variety but i would like the mild one as well! ❤❤❤❤
