As a dude from Sweden where we can drink all public water and nobody even thinks about it, I nearly did die when I went to Thailand with my parents back in the 90's. Just did what I always did and grabbed a glass from the tap in the hotel sink. Tasted fine.
30 minutes later I was ejecting my insides violently. Got so dehydrated I had to spend two days in the hospital. Very memorable vacation.

Thatโs a perfectly safe thing to do here in Northern Europe (and I regularly do so at the airport - take an empty bottle through security and fill it from a bathroom sink) and should be perfectly safe in JP too. Very, very few sinks here donโt use potable water, and those that donโt always have big signs informing you of that.

I think the main issue is not the water itself but the sink, faucet, doorknobs and other stuff of the toilet. Touching things in the toilet will contamine your hands, and the bottle because you have to manipulate it. I think is a "better safe than sorry" situation, public toilets sometimes can be very nasty

So for anyone that ever wanna travel to other countries, make sure you check if the tap water is drinkable for you. Not just drinkable, go to your doctor, and make sure that that countryโs tap water is specifically drinkable for YOU. Even if a countryโs tap water is perfectly fine for them, it can contain stuff that your body havenโt build an immunity to as different countries can have different natural bacteria and such, which most people wonโt consider when telling you that itโs ok to drink. Or you can play it safe and just buy bottled water, since thatโs usually safe, but obviously more costly

Fun story: it's the same water, in the US.
The only gross part of it, is that it was in a bathroom area that bothers people... the water itself comes from the same pipes and is identical. It's just a psychological ick-factor.
Water existing for a few seconds in a bathroom ain't bad. Mika did nothing wrong.

1:36 "Ya, I'm gonna go to the toilet and I'm gonna refill this bottle with water for you to drink."
...thought of something entirely different when she said that.
