Translation notes: 0:40 In terms of Japanese history, the ancient era (古代 kodai) generally refers to the beginning of Japanese history to the collapse of the centralized Heian government in the 12th century, while the medieval era (中世 chuusei) generally begins from there to the consolidation of Warring States Japan under the Three Unifiers in the 16th century. 1:12 Raden later tells us to look up the cafe after the stream, and I will save you a search: The ancient cafe in Nara is called Kotonoma Akari. 1:44 If you are a fan of One Piece you might remember that Robin actually says "I want to live" and not "I want to go" here. The fact is that both phrases are pronounced the same in Japanese (いきたい ikitai), which is why Raden can make this joke. I made a sneaky edit here teehee 3:43 The Heian period lasted from 794 to 1185 and is known for its court culture, of which Sei Shounagon's Pillow Book write at length. 4:05 Raden made the connection that people in the Heian period ate shaved ice just like people do today, but it should be noted that the Heian shaved ice (けづりひ kezurihi) is not the same as modern shaved ice (かき氷 kakigoori). In fact, the specific syrup used during the Heian, amazura (甘葛), was considered lost until researchers managed to recreate it and announced it last year, in 2023! 5:00 The Asuka period lasted from 538 to 710, centered in the Asuka region south of Nara. 7:49 Maki-e is the Japanese technique of sprinkling gold or silver powder onto lacquerware as decoration.

It honestly makes me happy how there are vtubers with very specific and educational niches like Kirako and KKP. Hopefully they get more popular just like JFT cuz the topics they talk about are seriously interesting. Anyway, the next time I go to Japan I'll be sure to check the cafe out 👀

A cafe preparing food the way it was made hundreds or thousands of years ago reminds me a lot of 18th century rustic cottage cooking videos on KZitem - I'm assuming the cafe lets you see how the food is prepared (an open kitchen?) I also wonder if red bean (paste) desserts were the main sweets before sugar was introduced to Japan in the 1500s or 1600s, hmm...

Astounding! Makes me interested in looking up the history of the local foods in my country (i.e. halo-halo, taho, etc).

I'm fairly sure bees are not a recent invention, so they would have had honey as well. Though it was probably a lot more expensive

yeah, from a brief research, it seems that honey was extremely precious since it was treated as both a luxury good since it was hard to procure and a medicine. earliest research of beekeeping was recorded to be in the 7th century. if you want a decent paper on a brief intro to Japanese beekeeping, here's a citation of the paper i just referenced: Kohsaka, Ryo & Park, Mi Sun & Uchiyama, Yuta. (2017). Beekeeping and honey production in Japan and South Korea: Past and Present. Journal of Ethnic Foods. 4. 10.1016/j.jef.2017.05.002.

Ancient ways to sweeten foods is a fascinating rabbit hole, a good example is a lot of old Slavic countries would sweeten with beet root sugar or honey, but honey was considered more prestigious and sacred, while beet root was something that was farmed en masse.

I don’t know, I feel like all the context is necessary unless the clip was limited to just the little bits of her seeing them in the stream and being embarrassed. Otherwise it’s like sugar>sweets>ancient cafe>who she went with>they’re watching the stream😳
