As an Alien I appreciate the conversion so I had a reference.
It was so thoughtful of you to include aliens! Impressive ride :)
yeah but the figure should have been in parsecs :V
@@ElliottBelser Parsec is for Earth dwellers.
For real! I felt so included & loved! Oh Shit!! "'&_₹__"*₹)/((!((!!!;; $^πππ÷{=^°{}
Was super confused about this until I started watching the video
As a UK citizen. I’m ashamed to say how awful our train systems are compared to Japans. We have dirty trains, they don’t always run on time and have so many rude and noisy people on them too
In Japan everything and everywhere is spotlessly clean. There is no rubbish or litter on the floor or platforms, the trains are spotlesss outside and gleam with paintwork and class. It’s so so quiet too. Everybody respects each other’s space. This guy has a great sense of humour which is refreshing on a journey such as this when there’s no talking. Still those bullet trains are impressive, they obviously leave dead on time too. Both meals looked good too. I bet he took everything and put his rubbish straight into a bin aswell. Total respect and admiration for this country’s manners 👍🏻👏🏻
Same here in the USA.
Что уж говорить о россиянах? 🤨
If a first world country like yours says that thing imagine the plight of people living in third world country like me.
@@Youkai_arts а что это за страна? Не забывайте, Япония не так давно была страной третьего мира. Отсталой. А потом у них случился резкий расцвет.
I'm old enough to remember when we had manners in Britain.
Some 15 years ago, I took the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Kyoto. I couldn't figure out where the train was but people were very kind and pointed me to it. I had a seat in a car completely empty. The thing flashed by homes and rice paddies. I noted the great variety of greens there are in Japan. Loved the ride. On the way back, I decided to save a few bucks and bought a cheaper train only to find it stopping at every hamlet and town. I decided to pay for the Shinkansen but had to get off, take another commuter milk run, but finally got the train on the East coast of Japan. The moral of the story: don't be cheap. Pay the fare and enjoy.
Hahaha "goodbye sandwich, see you on the other side." 😂 You always make your videos interesting to watch and give lots of information. Looking forward to seeing the next one.
Thank you TC! glad you enjoyed it!
@@SoloSoloTravel Just please don't post any video! 😂
TMI haha
Man....I always marvel over how well Japan does the whole high-speed rail experience - from the cheapest seats to the priciest...always a clean, comfortable, class act all the way. I've travelled on the Chinese equivalent quite a few times and I can tell you they are worlds apart. The bento looked pretty righteous by the way !! LOL
JR group diversifies their income to keep their railways primed. From bus service, inn service, to office space leasing, they took parts of those profits for railway matters.
As far as I know, JR group is the only railway operator in the world with this business scheme.
@@OverseerMoti MTR corporation in Hong Kong uses a similar model as well, they own the stations and the land around the stations, and use the land to develop office space and shopping malls and use the revenue to upkeep their trains.
from what i hear on the internet, chinese high speed rail services are cheap fast clean and efficient as well.... are they not?
@@thefreestylefrEaK El sistema de alta velocidad de China es superior al de Japón y en la práctica circula a más velocidad, y con más de 40.000km supera al resto de países del mundo juntos.
@@namele55777 Cheap, fast, efficient? In most cases, and especially on important lines, definitely. Clean? That’d be far fetched on a Chinese HSR trainset. No matter which class you’re in you can always smell dirty carpet and public toilet...
“For the aliens out there” made me laugh way too much 🤣
Hello rey
SST is often imitated by other You Tubers doing the same thing, but never surpassed. Just the right relaxing pace, good commentary with a slice of humor. Thank you SST, I've enjoyed every journey so far.
From Chicago and a family of train lovers
Thank you for your videos. You are educating us Japan is certainly impressive!!
When I went on military service, I traveled over 9000 (literally) kilometers from Saint-Petersburg to Khabarovsk. I was dreaming all my childhood to visit such a route. I also enjoy densha-de-go series, and understand a bit your vision of trains. Thank you for your videos
Hello, fellow Densha de Go player ☺️
As some one from Melbourne, I loved the reference point of distance. To add to this, as someone who loves to go to Hakata everytime I'm in Japan- I may just avoid doing it via Shinkansen from Tokyo next time I visit (although, I was kind of secretly looking forward to the journey). Safe travels!
DONT LOVE. Tokyo is boring city ive seen. Visit Barcelona or Paris
@@phoenix1453 Enjoyment of cityscapes are subjective. I haven't been to Barcelona or Paris personally, but they look amazing and are places I'd love to visit one day. Is Tokyo boring to me? Not at all! The metropolis that houses a multitude of districts all with their own distinct vibes, it's amazing!
The energy difference between Harajuku and Shinjuku for example... Is addictive. It allows you to seek the experience your crave. Do you have this kind of experience in other cities? I can say for certain, it's sure possible! I've felt it in Hong Kong, Seoul, my home town Melbourne and even Singapore... But that's the extent to my experience so far
To calla city boring though, especially a city the size of Tokyo is quite ignorant and a pretty harsh blanket term.
I think if you find Tokyo "boring" it's more of a reflection of you, as a person. Not the city. ❤️
Thank you for posting this video! It reminded me of my first Shinkansen ride, but I only travelled from Tokyo to shin-Kobe; first class of course! I brought my own Bento and Kirin. 😋
I worked in Himeji, Kobe, Kyoto, Tokyo and Tsuchiura and had a marvellous time there.
I'm glad I randomly watch your videos. They always never disappoint. For Malaysians, it's distance of Singapore to Bangkok. Our trains are full of hope. Hope no delays due to an engine issue and certainly Hope no floods!
New Subscriber here; I love your format --- subtitles with great humor, plus no wasted time with gasbag explanations!
I'm 70 and may never see Japan. I am encouraged how user friendly the trains and hotels are.
The emphasis on QUIET in the capsule hotels makes them very desireable.
The bath/shower/soak tub looks divine.
That's a really impressive stretch with a high speed train! I can see why you would like a sleeper train though. It is so very nice to get on in the evening and wake up in a new place.
Another great video, informative and funny as usual!
Of course 7 hours is a long trip, but just to put things into perspective: where I live there aren't high speed trains and the train tracks are actually really poorly maintained. Last month I took a 570 kms trip, it took... 17 hours! It was a sleeper and I got to book a room so it wasn't that bad, just painfully slow lol
Japan is a beautiful Country, they are way ahead when it comes to their technology and achievements.💯🐝🇬🇧
Thank you for the great videos, i have enjoyed traveling through Japan with you👏👏👏
Nghe danh tiếng tàu Shinkansen đã lâu nay mới được tận mắt thấy. Thật tuyệt vời! Ước gì có cơ hội để trải nghiệm con tàu được mệnh danh "nhanh nhất thế giới". Arigato!!!
putting in my comment for the algorithm to make this man blow up, solo solo travel stonks to the mooooon lets gooo
STONKS 📈 📈 📈 📈
Incredible train. Japan has the best train system in the world.
Lol the cutting board on the top of the building!
What a great trip. 7 hours trip for me is fun, especially on land trip. Can't imagine how much money to spend if you doing the relay on First Class using the fastest Shinkansen like Nozomi and Mizuho. Yes, agree, the downside of train in Japan is lack of Sleeping Train, because maybe some cities are very close each other, hope in the future there are many sleeping train in Japan.
They have sleeper trains for this same route
Since finding your channel a few months ago I am totally addicted and return to previous videos just to relive the experiences! Thank you so much … you are great at ensuring we have a true experience of actually being there … no mean feat but you succeed each and every time! Thank you so much 👍 ありがとう 🙏
Travelled by local train in 2019 from Tokyo to Hiroshima, then from here to Matsuyama via Okayama and back to Kyoto, I really understand your concern about your mental health 🤝
It was a long journey and your humour is the best! It's great, nice, convenient to be able to have choices in travelling. The chairs looks comfy, just enjoy good food, do some tai chi and wait for your station to arrive.
You had your humorous captions enabled tonight. You made me snort tea out my nose at one point there 😝
There should definitely be an an overnight shinkansen with sleeper. Imagine a 20hour evening to evening rail between Kagoshima to Shin Hakodate, that'll be a treat for a weekend rail trip
iirc the Shinkansen lines for West and East aren't connected and you have to transfer at Tokyo; although, a trip from Shin-Hakodate - Tokyo - Kagoshima would still be pretty cool
@@alifaan595 yeah, the area above the station south exit will need to be remodelled to accommodate the required switches to bridge the tokaido shinkansen and the rest of the JR East skinkansen lines.
@@alifaan595 Because half of Japan is 50 Hz and the other half is 60
There were several sleepers going from Tokyo to Kyushu and Hokkaido on the 90's and 2000's, but buses and airplanes became cheap and then the night trains died
@@HalianTheProtogen that's not a problem with modern equipment, inf fact e7 series can run on both 50/60 Hz area
Love your videos so glad I came across your channel!!
Thank you Jaxx! I'm glad!
Haha The alien remark was pretty funny
1:25 - Thank you for the equivalencies in distance! That was awesome!
Those trains do look very comfortable but 7hrs is a long time to sit even in the most comfy of chairs. Then have to walk to the hotel very late at night in the pitch dark after that long journey. Exhausting and scary. Hope you do a hotel review. 😊
I absolutely love your videos and have now subscribed to your amazing channel. I find your videos to be so relaxing while totally enjoying your often humorous commentary. No music and no yelling at the camera for effect. Just peaceful rides with natural sound on the most incredible trains the world has ever seen. Someday, I sincerely hope to visit Japan and get to experience one of these rides myself. In the meantime, keep up the GREAT videos and I will surely keep watching!!
Cutting board on top of the building:

It's always amazing how well built and immaculate everything seems to be.
I love that you put Australia in the distance part!! Hello from Australia
Yo first comment
Your channel is rising so fast, good to know that
Gambare 🤘🤘
Thank you for your comment! Appreciate it!
@@SoloSoloTravel most Welcome 😇
Did the same journey once (changing at Shintosu for Nagasaki though). Enjoyed it very much. In fact, we opted to go to Nagasaki because of the prospect to relax on the train for a day. Regarding not seeing Mt Fuji: I‘ve been to Japan so many times and have never seen Mt Fuji. Not from the train, not from the Sky Tree, not from Hakone, never. I‘m convinced it is just a hoax and there is no Mt Fuji - just paintings of a volcano that never existed.
When me and my family went to Mt Fuji, our Japanese guide told us, “If you see Mt. Fuji during your visit in Japan, you will be very very lucky this year”. Lo and behold when we arrived, Mt. Fuji showed its greatness right in front of us! Our guide told us we were so lucky since the past few days it was all covered with the clouds. We visited Japan Jan 2020. A month later COVID hit. Most lost their jobs. Me and my wife managed to keep ours. I guess Mt. Fuji gave us that luck.
@@carlfranciscon Lies! There is no such mountain! Maybe Russians can see it. ;-)
@@mrk131324 Haha So sorry for you my friend. Better luck next time.
Your vlogs bring calmness to mind.
Спасибо за видео! У Вас есть свой стиль съемки и монтажа. И это здорово! Смотрю с удовольствием вечером. И все проблемы улетают. А еще я тоже стал говорить после того как поем -СПАСИБО ЗА ЕДУ!) Это очень хорошая традиция! Всего хорошего!
Главное, русских в рейсе мало. Нет пьяных криков "Тагииииил"))
@@Russia-is-a-terrorist-State а бандеровцами и не пахнет. Не измажут краской все вокруг и не насрут в кресла.
I see solo travel and i click
Wish I could visit Japan! What a wonderful way to travel! Thank you!
I find your videos peaceful and relaxing which is odd since you are usually taking mass transit from one busy city to another. Keep making them!
Thank you for also taking account of the aliens out there. 😊 They will appreciate your video as much as I do. ❤🥳 👍
Next up: staying at a capsule hotel to relieve myself after 7 hour of sitting down
Hotel review, probably: good, leg go brr, very recommend
A long expensive trip.
Very fast and with nice food.
I used the Jr Pass last time.
It saved a lot of money on train fares.
Thanks great value
Have you watched "train to Busan"? There may be a zombie hiding 😂
I really enjoyed that trip - but it is a long time to sit. Thank you for sharing
Wow! That is a stunning meal from the convenience store! Yummy.
Thanks for sharing these I love watching your adventures !!
04:30 I chose my seat on my first (and so far only) Shinkansen trip for that exact same reason! Thankfully I got lucky - the peak of Mt Fuji happened to... peek through the clouds ;)
Loving your videos and the humour in it, looking forward to more!
Cities in Japan are so close. Trains are a good option to travel across country. If brazilian goverment would wanted, you could travel here.🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Your Videos are so interisting 👍👍
素晴らしくて有益なビデオ、共有してくれてありがとう。
I love Japanese culture, I enjoy your trips, cool to see your travels, thank you.
只今 新幹線さくら列車が到着しました。
いつもJR九州新幹線をご利用してくださって ありがとうございます。
目的地まで安全で楽しい旅行になってください。
Nice view,bro ! Love the train head design n color.. 👍
These trains are beautiful. I did not know you could do so much with the design. Our trains and our tracks are from the dark ages over here.
страна живет 75 лет без мыслей о войне, захвате и подчинении других. И вот результат страна в культуре жизни обогнала весь на 100 лет. Такое отношение к мелочам, исключительная чистота просто поражает.
Loved the video, got a laugh at the alien part! Lol 😆
1,500km in 7 hours. That's even faster than traveling to Manila from our place by bus. And you get to pass by Shizuoka (Tamiya headquarters) and Hamamatsu (headquarters of Yamaha and Suzuki) real quick!
And I'm also impressed by the food you could get at even a konbini. Those pork cutlet sandwiches are HUGE compared to what we get here in the Philippines--that thing is enough to sustain you for a whole day.
Also: thanks for teaching us "The Shinkansen Seat Taichi."
There's literally a cutting board on top of the building. I can't stop laughing. You finish your sandwich. See you on the other side. 🤮. I absolutely love your videos and all your comments. It makes part of my day better when I can watch a video. I really hope you keep making these videos for a long time and enjoy yourself while making them.
The cutting board quip still has me laughing, and that one skyscraper reminded me of an after shave bottle with a round screw top cap.
Having also travelled this entire route I'm not sure I'd want to do the entire length of this trip in one day...
But... I'd definitely fly Solaseed Air again. I thought they were excellent. Much better than other low cost alternatives as they have a 32 inch seat pitch. Had a great experience Kagoshima to Tokyo with them.
This was relaxing to watch. The chicken sandwich looked really good. Thank you so much 🙏😊
There was a some to impress trains. And the seats look comfortable hi. I think you should start a Tik-Tok and the Instagram. Because I would love to see the videos on there too.
Estoy mirando todos tus videos desde Argentina. Son hermosos. Admirable la limpieza y el orden en todo. Pero lo que más me gusta es cómo agradeces después de cada comida, con un respeto muy especial. Gracias por estos videos que nos permiten conocer medios de transportes tan sofisticados y modernos.
Along with the scenery and train details, I like the wit in these videos...well-timed humor.
That is possibly the most delicious looking pre-packed sandwich that I've ever seen.
Thank you for including the equivalency in light years. We extra terrestrials appreciate your diligence.
Light years. {smile}
Your commentary is delightful. :D
thank you for this wonderful vid! 7 hrs ride in shinkansen is a dream i want to experience ☺ i tried a 6hr ride from hakata station > shin-osaka > shinagawa before and it was absolutely an awesome experience
Great job, however, it would've been nice to see more footage of the train like restroom facilities and amenities you got with first class seats.
Great videos - your channel is awesome. I'd add a few more details about yourself as a person, just so we know the host of the show! I also like the food and details of the destination and info along the way. Great work. Keep it up!
I’m a legal alien in Denmark (a bit of fun with a Sting song, except not New York). Originally from the west coast of the US, so yeah I have no problem conceptualizing distance. Yes, I love your videos for your sense of humor.
Was waiting to see the toilet area, but most relaxing to experience thank you
Love Japan🇯🇵🗾
Lol for the aliens 👽 out there 🤣 😂..you crack me up..I always look forward to your videos..they are always interesting and informative..you have become my favorite RUclipsr..thank you 🥰
Wow I would love for The Netherlands to have actual high speed railways. As it could solve our housing issue, allowing people to live further away from their jobs, giving people the chance to live where they live and blitz to their destination.
Je maakt een grap hoop ik?
@@allan2k195 Nope

Wait, I could've traveled from my house in San Francisco to Seattle for free, IN GREEN CLASS?!
Also, at least it's Tokyo to Kagoshima, not Abashiri to Hakodate. Love your videos as well as his.
You still got to pay upfront for the JR Pass though
@@OverseerMoti Yeah, but the JR Pass goes so much farther. We really used it when we were in Japan.
@@ABCantonese Hello I saved about three thousand using a JR pass.
Three weeks pass was great.
After 3 minutes of watching this video, I already fell in love with your sense of humour 😆😆
If you do not know what items to choose take one of everything.... works as a charm every time and gets you very satisfied 🤤
"And to the aliens out there..."
Hilarious and totally unexpected. 👏
Es mejor viajar solo qué mal acompañado. Un soltero sin apuro...🤗🇦🇷🇯🇵. Qué lujoso viajar y conocer sus cultura japonés. Saludos dé un país lejanos al otro lados del mundo. Good vídeo👍!!!.
that was a trek and a half. holy cow. 7 hours to go 930mi
Deming, NM to Texarkana, TX 915 miles
Thank you for a pleasant video
Thank you for making these videos! Greeting from Europe ;)
1:45 as an alien, thanks for telling me the distance!
I need to pay more attention! Went all the way through without any subtitles then when I restarted the browser it restarted the video and then I saw it....needed to have cc enabled...rewatching :)
Greaf from start - to - finish. Love the food. Thanks for sharing with us.
This train is so cool!
What was that music at Shin Kobe station? It sounded like something from Sailor Moon series.
Love your videos. They bring back happy memories of train journeys in Japan. In your ditance comparison i think ‘Paris to Italy’ does nt mean much…Paris to Rome (around 890 miles) or Naples would be more accurate.
thank you for the alien conversion, now i know how far this is :)
Yepp. Rode on one between Tokyo and Kyoto. A swift, smooth and comfortable ride.
Love to watch your videos in bed before going to sleep, lol, I love them.
