    🍿NOTIFICATION SQUAD: Journey Across Japan: Escape to Fuji has officially begun! Welcome to the journey. BICYCLES are banned.
    I'll admit I do feel a sense of guilt for leaving Natsuki waiting, but it's not often I get excited about a quarry. What would you have done? Natsuki vs. Quarry?
    What a genuinely crazy start to our journey though. I never thought it'd all kick off like this! I really hope you enjoy this extra-long edition of Abroad in Japan in glorious 4K. Episode 2 will be out next week! For now, grab the popcorn, pull up a leg rest and enjoy the most terrifying episode of Abroad in Japan ever released.
    - (Except every episode with Ryotaro's face in).

      @Naokarma Год назад +60

      His obsession was only just beginning around this point in time, most likely. This was over 2 years ago, and his interest had more to do with visiting places rather than researching them. Considering how much he likes to talk about things, it's unlikely he knew it existed until he came across it, because he has no reason to pretend to not know what it is.
