An instructional video of this type relies very little on the spoken word so the Japanese language was not objectionable. I knew something of the video prior to renting it so knew it would be in Japanese. The demonstrations were very good and very through. My one objection was a somewhat annoying hum whenever the audio came on.
Excellent photography and clear subtitles. The camera recorded very close up shots of working the glass in the flame.
The translation didn't seem very complete-lots of talking with very simple instructions. Electronic music throughout was really annoying. This was volume 3 I think-what happened to one and two? Interesting seeing the different techniques and tools Japanese beadmakers use.
