This is a day in the life of a Japanese university student

This is Yusuke, a 22 years old Japanese University student, living in Yokohama part of the greater Tokyo area

He lives in a two-story house with his parents as it's within commuting distance to campus

In fact, it's a fairly common in Japan for people to continue to live with their parents even after graduation

Well into their adult working career and like most Japanese salarymen, he also prefers to take a bath at night

So Yusuke is your typical fourth year Japanese college student with a good balance of school coursework, part-time job and social life

Which will all get into later in this video

So he skips breakfast in the morning, but makes time to feed his cat before he goes to class

His house is about a 10 minute walk to the nearest train station

Yusuke is able to purchase a teikiken which is a commuter pass allowing him to take

Unlimited rides on the specified route between his home and school

So Yusuke should be coming soon and it's actually the end of the line

so I don't know whether the train is gonna be coming from this end or

This end so we'll just have to see. I'm guessing it'll be coming from this end

Good morning! Yusuke, where are you going now?

So you Yusuke takes a train and bus to get to campus with a total commute time of about 1 hour and 10 minutes door to door

And since this campus doesn't have direct train access most students take the bus from the closest transition to get to campus

He said that the university has a ryo - which in English means,

Dorm only a limited number of students can stay there. So many students are not living with their parents at a commutable distance

One of Japan's top universities. So Keio, like many Japanese universities, don't just have one large campus

But rather is made up of multiple campuses shown on

Fujisawa campus where Yusuke attends is one of 10 plus campuses spread throughout the greater Tokyo area

A student study focus will dictate which campus he or she attends

And since Yusuke is a policy management major, he attends at this campus

So it's customary in Japan to take off your shoes when entering the house to keep it clean. And this also applies to some public

Facilities at the school most gyms in Japan just like this one. You need to bring a second pair of indoor shoes

I personally appreciate how clean it is in Japan

This campus has a pretty nice gym. Open to all students. He said that you need to pay at other campuses

So I guess it really depends on which one you go to

In his fourth and last year at university

He can opt to take an easier schedule. As his future job once he graduates has already been decided

university students to start their formal job hunting process in the winter of their third year and by summer of their fourth year most people

Well, just as long as I graduated in March

As you can see this area around me right now is just like

Individual pods where students can study we have to be a little bit quiet because this is like a no-talking zone

Now he's going to his first class of the day

It appears that taking notes on the PC is common these days in Japanese universities

Generally a student's class semester grade is based on assignments, presentations, group projects, and one final exam at the end of the semester

But... one interesting aspect about the Japanese University grading system is that many teachers don't let students know

How each category is weighed so students can't calculate what they need to score on their final exam to earn a

Yusuke, is it comon to skip class in Japan?

He said that some classes allow for 3 absences which many students use. But departments like Medical School

which have strict mandatory class make it difficult to skip

Yay lunchtime! So he's meeting up with his friend at the Gakushoku -  also known in English as the school cafeteria

Damn they left their belongings unattended at the table and he has his MacBook in there. Wow. Japan is so safe

If you look closely all the food is priced under five dollars making it affordable for all students

Many Japanese cafeterias you order a main dish and pick up a small dish and then pay the total amount at the end

It's pretty amazing how nutritionally balanced and well thought-out these meals are on campus.

Oh! And it looks like the tea is free here, too

So Yusuke is having lunch with his friend right now

You see how inexpensive the lunches here are on campus and they have a pretty good selection

Yusuke got the Katsu curry with vegetables on the side not bad. So how did you two become friends?

At the campus store, you can buy stationery, books, food and daily necessities. Oh wow, that's Reji's manga!

While many first second and third year university students have 15 to 23 courses hours per week

Seniors have much less like Yusuke who has only 9 courses hours per week

So he takes advantage of his extra free time to train in Karate and even has created an online karate training program

Which he promotes on his social media channels

So today Yusuke only has three hours of class and the other six hours the day after tomorrow

Meaning he only goes to campus twice a week

So this is his last class of the day, but since I can't film inside of this one, I'll just wait outside

Oh there he is leaving campus with some of his classmates

Wow a big line at the bus station again! So where are you guys going now?

By the way Nabepa means hotpot party in Japanese

It's a common winter food in Japan and many friends and families alike gather to eat hotpot at each other's homes

Before going home, they need to stop by at the supermarket to get ingredients for the hotpot

The beautiful thing about Japanese hot pot is that it's so easy to prepare

Most supermarkets offer a selection of premade soup flavors. Boil that in a pot and then just add whatever meats and vegetables the group like

I guess they decided to go with the Kimchi Chigae Nabe tonight

Among students, it's more common to drink with friends at home rather than outside

Oh and most students these days drink Chuhai

Which is Soju mix with carbonated water and usually lemon flavor but these days there's all sorts of flavors offered

So, what are you guys gonna do after University?

Do college students drink a lot these days?
