- What is your dairy schedule?

I wake up in the afternoon, I film in the night and post, then I sleep in the morning. It takes about 30 minutes to film and about an hour and half to edit a video. 

- You are always pressed for time filming and editing every day, when do you come up with ideas of your videos? 

Ideas just come down to me.

- Could I just quote that?!

hahaha, but really, I come up with an idea everyday. I was watching a videos of a woodpecker pecking a tree 2 days ago, and I watched in slow motioned. I thought it was really cool how a tiny woodpecker pecks a giant tree. So I was inspired to be a woodpecker for a video lol 

- What is the one thing you wouldn't do, when you don't hesitate to take risks for your videos?

Using fires, or doing something that I wouldn't want anybody copy me and take the same risks like I do. Also, I go too far with my dirty jokes, I sometimes violate Community Guideline on YouTube. Some videos are being penalized and deleted lol 

- Perhaps there are lot of dirty jokes in your videos.

I become 23 years old this year, and I still think dirty jokes are funny. People who wouldn't like those jokes should not watch my videos!lol I suddenly slip my mouth and say those sexual things. I worry about viewers who watch YouTube on TV screen with family. I would ask viewers to watch my videos at your own risk lol

- Sometimes you can become a target of abuse on the Internet. Do you check those comments on the Internet?

It wouldn't produce anything even if I cared. I wouldn't look at those unconstructive opinions.

- Criticism often happens towards YouTuber in Japan. How do you deal with those opinions from public? 

A new things always gets the most criticism. It just happens. I think there are some jealousy invovled. I could be that side of critical people if I wasn't a YouTuber. I think I would be jealous of their jobs. I am this (YouTuber's) side now, but I understand people who want to criticise. 

- When do you think you're glad to be a YouTuber?

When I can see my viewers in person, especially when they come to my concert. 

- I think many viewers want to be a YouTuber like you. What is the one thing you would advice them? 

I think you guys should respect Hikakin or many YouTubers like him rather than me or other YouTubers like me. I am not a good influence....lol But, if they really want to start YouTube, I want them 1. make videos without bothering any people, 2. not give up just because you don't get many views on your videos, 3. believe in "Slow but steady wins" and keep going on. 

- You tell me that your ambition is to be on a top of YouTube. Do you have any specific plans?

I want to do something new, and I want to be the first YouTuber who do it. I am the only YouTuber who does a national-wide tour now. I am also the only one who launched a new fashion brand. I want to be a top YouTuber in japan, but I still want to challenge in many fields not only the YouTube.

- Are there any YouTubers who's rival to you?

Any younger YouTubers, older YouTubers, everyone is my rival, no matter how much we are close friends. There are some comments that says "Mahoto goes a little bit too far", when I appear on other YouTuber's videos. However, I feel like I won when comments about me occupy other YouTuber's comment sections. I am very competetive.  


- Please give a message to your fans at the last!

I will keep working without making my viewers bored of me, please keep watching!
