thank you!

yeah I was confused since I rarely use the term of ningen, but rather use hito and jinsei a lot. so when I see someone post similar sentence as mine, but use ningen over hito, I was like, oh, did I make a mistake here.

but yeah I like the playful word as well!

also bookmarked the video, thank you again!

@ganbold Yeah, I also think that there's a lot of overlap where they are interchangeable like "そういう人いるもんね" and "そういう人間いるもんね", even if 人間 acts much more like "human" you wouldn't say "Yeah sometimes there's humans like that" x3, but in Japanese I guess you can and it doesn't sound too alien, probably not a mistake from your part more than stylistic choice. Those kind of nuance considerations where it could be "uh, I guess it works but no one would say that" and "oh, yeah you can say that, I wouldn't but there's nothing weird about it" really are hell lol
