I played baseball. - Nice one.
I used to be in tennis club.
We cooked and prepared food...
Until 22:00-23:00 - Wow that's long.
Hey guys it's Cathy Cat and
today we are gonna go and Ask Japanese...
about their school bukatsu which are usually clubs
which are very interesting and there are a couple of
RULES that I didn't know existed.
So let's go and Ask Japanese.
Did you join a school club?
I played volleyball.
How many times a week?
After school and Saturday and Sunday. - The whole weekend?
So how many days a week?
After a game we got a day off.
I was in the school band in middle school.
What was good about that?
It wasn't really ....
You sound like you did NOT have fun.
Did you join a club?
I played tennis.
We were all playing tennis. - Oh you are all in the tennis club?
Nice, were there any strict rules in your school club?
We were not allowed to take a day off.
What really?
I once was sick... and got told I had to stay and watch.
Even when you're sick you have to join club?
But I took some days off.
You were the bad girl of our club!
They were both bad girls!
Well, if you are physically unwell, it's no use right.
But you couldn't rest?
The senior students said, "we even come when we have a fever, so you come too."
That's pretty tough.
How many days a week did you have to go?
Apart from Wednesday we had to go every day.
What really? - Yes, don't you remember?
That one over there doesn't remember.
How long did you have to stay at club?
From 16.00-17.30
So one hour and a half?
That still seems fun.
I play soccer.
I play tennis.
Kendo!
Dance.
So what's good about your Japanese club?
We aim to be like the player Nishikori.
Do your best!
We get to hit the other person.
That just sounds like bullying!
What club was yours again? - Kendo!
Kendo, that's right.
That does seem fun though.
When we all dance as one, it feels really cool.
Wow that does sound like fun.
I was part of the K-ON club... the light music club.
The famous K-ON!
- What instrument were you playing? - The drums.
- Wasn't that really tough. - It was quite hard...
and that's why I quit.
Was there anything fun?
It was fun but you have to practice all the time or...
you won't get better.
How was the junior senior relationship?
A bit difficult. - Different from the Anime after all...
Were you in a school club?
I played basketball.
I played tennis.
Were your club rules strict?
They were strict about properly greeting.
When meeting the teacher we had to stop and greet the teacher properly.
That was a rule of the baseball club.
So we couldn't really forget about it.
Looking at the others...
How was the senior-junior students relationship?
That was actually quite relaxed.
How many times a week did you practice?
Including the weekend, we practiced 6 days a week.
Wednesdays we got off.
So even on Sunday you had to go to school?
We just went for the club, not to study.
We were allowed to have Saturday and Sunday off. The rest was every day practice.
How long?
During the week we would start after school.
Until about 20:00 - That's quite late!
The tennis club didn't have artificial lighting.
So once it got dark we finished.
In summer we played until 19.00
In Winter we finished around 18.00
Was it always outside? - Yes.
You too? - Yes.
Isn't that really cold?
In winter it's pretty cold.
So when it snows you get to rest up?
When it was snowing we would be inside but...
we had to run up and down the stairs.
That sounds super hard.
Did you join a club?
I was part of home economics. - Home economics?
We cooked and prepared food.
I was a cheerleader.
A real cheerleader? - Yes I used to dance.
Amazing. What was fun about your club?
We all had a good time chatting and eating the food.
We also had sweets parties,
also Halloween parties.
That was so much fun.
It's a great feeling of achievement when we finish after a tournament.
It's fun.
It makes all the hard work worth it.
I used to play tennis.
I was in the boxing club.
First time I heard about a boxing club.
Was that in school?
Yeah a normal school boxing club.
How many members were there in your club?
We were about 20.
We were only about Six.
How often did you go to practice?
- Everyday. - But you got the weekend off?
No seriously EVERY day.
Yes 7 days a week.
That's tough.
We'd start after school.
We'd start around 16:00 and then finish around 22:00
Until 22:00-23:00 - Wow that's long.
Going home is tough there.
You have no time do do homework then.
I didn't do homework.
There wasn't any.
How long did you have to practice on the weekend? And hour or so?
No way girl.
The weekend was super long.
We generally were there the whole day.
We would assemble at 8:00
And then finish at 20:00
The whole 12hours on your weekend?
Especially close to a match we had to be tough.
So what was good about your club?
We all got along. That was the only good thing.
The teacher was too strict in middle school.
How so?
If you weren't playing well enough, the teacher would make you stay and practice late.
Practice before school, after school and then again.
That's strict.
What was tough about the band?
The teacher scolded us so much...
He was strict? - Super strict.
What did he do?
He would scold us for every little thing.
he was so strict...
We could rest on Sundays but all other days we just practiced.
What was the best and worst about your club?
I learned how to overcome hard times thanks to my club.
So that was the thing I learned there.
Good way of seeing it.
It was fun when we managed to all play together.
The best thing was being able to meet these awesome friends here.
Good point. You are going shopping right now, perfect.
I think that's all the good from it though...
Our club's trip was fun. We managed to sneak away. That was fun.
Nice one.
You sneaked out?
We sneaked out to go the convenience store at night.
And then we went for a walk.
That was so much fun.
Wow that sounds like a great time.
I was wondering how long you practice during those club trips.
We first run in the mornings.
Around 9 am we run up the mountain.
At 9 in the morning!
Is there something bad about your club?
The fact that you end up cutting your legs and hands.
To be honest my senpai is really nice to me.
And I am also friendly to my juniors.
There is no hierarchy, we all get along.
Was the senior-junior relationship quite tough?
Gosh mine was strict. If I was late...
my senpai (senior students) would get really angry at me.
Scary!
But at the other times they were just nice.
Did you never injure yourself at cheerleader club?
Mentally I was hurt a lot...
What mentally? Why?
The senior students and the coach were horrible.
What was so scary about them?
It would already start with their tone of voice...
I feel like Japanese and American cheer leading clubs are both pretty tough.
Was there anything else?
With your senpai and such?
We were not allowed to wear our hair up in balls.
We also had to start before our senior students and clean the space for them.
We had to run in order to make it happen.
What?!
What sounds tough. Was there something at your club?
Not at all. Home economics was not strict.
We all got along, even with your seniors.
We just had fun.
You didn't have to wash the plates for your senpai? - Oh no.
We have a school festival.
For the sake of the school festival we would use our summer holiday
to braid items and such. That time...
it was a bit tough. It was so hot in the school in summer.
But it gave me a chance to become close to my senpai, that was good.
I think I have become mentally stronger.
So maybe it was good I joined.
It was fun, I don't regret going.
Oh well, right those were our questions, thank you.
So Japanese school club activities.
They start early. Some start in Elementary school and go all the way to University.
You can pick different ones.
People start with one club and once they change into middle school
pick a different one. Or they continue depending on what their likings are.
As you've heard, many of those club activities take up a lot of time.
Sometimes you are there 6 days a week.
Sometimes 7 days a week.
So you really have to commit to that club
for the time you are there.
There is no dropping out and there is no annoying your senpai.
Very important that you actually have a good interaction with your senpai
and the teacher, who is there for the club.
That is a couple of things that make it hard for the club activities here.
The good thing is you make great friendships out of them or
you learn something. For example, an instrument, because you practice it 6 times a week
Let me know, do you have any school clubs, university clubs or
anything like that?
Anything like that that you ....?
That you are curious about in your country? Let us know...
