We actually stayed at the Nintendo HOTEL! 😍 Kim's Video - ruclips.net/video/IURe6faJG28/видео.html The description box should read: Use code BEATEMUPS50 to get 50% off your first Factor box at bit.ly/3kPn2wu!
at the end of the previous video you said ''bye, see you tomorrow'' in japanese. So I've been worried that something might happened in your life, since we didn't see you the day after. Hope you're all good! Love your Japan vlogs🍣🍜😻
This was probably the most insightful video of Japan I've seen yet. Everybody does the whole touristy thing of Akihabra, Super Potato, Hard-Off/Book-off, etc., but I've never seen a video this deep into things that are NOT the typical touristy things. Very cool video. Also, superb editing on these two Japan vlog videos. Amazing job and thanks for sharing your experience with us!
I don’t know if it’s on purpose but it’s so nice you’re using the Abroad in Japan/Journey Across Japan theme song in these vlogs, it’s like two world I like colliding! Also can’t wait to see the next video because I need tips about where to get second hand games in Osaka, going there in a week.
9:50 This is the biggest highlight of the video. To be able to go Rain on the roof must have been one of the greatest moments of your trip. I reeeeeally envy you man.
Thanks for lugging all the gear and cameras around Wood! Glad I get to live vicariously through you. The MOMENT I realized I wanted to ultimately go to Japan was, as a child, playing Street Fighter 2, fighting E Honda. I've been obsessed with Japanese Culture ever since, and can't WAIT to be able to go one day.
Dude just seems like a good guy. Lol. Most youtubers seem scripted which I'm sure some of his vids are, but this one seems authentic. Rare on this platform
So glad you enjoyed your time and spent it with friends is also even more special. Although you mentioned the return flight wasn't the best, you seemed much more relaxed throughout this trip. Sending digital hugs to the BeatEmUps Team! 😊
@@Joe-p9lI have severe anxiety and I went to Hawaii- 9.5 hour flight. I even had some panic attacks leading up to and even one mid flight. Sometimes you need to just push through to do things. He also is probably being treated- meds didn’t work for me, unfortunately.
How I wish I could meet you, Kim, and Bob in Japan (coming from the PH, it will be more likely to happen in Japan than in the US. 😅). But we will go there early next year and most likely you guys won't be back in less than 6 months. Haha Anyway, this and Bob's video was really helpful. I also plan to buy some anime and NSW stuff. Take care guys.
great video! and i’m glad you mentioned that it’s crazy exhausting because it totally is. how you managed to film so much is actually insane! i’d be dead tired. thanks for the content
I’m so glad that you’ve been enjoying learning Japanese, but as another foreigner trying to learn it too, definitely recommend finding a class or something rather than relying on Duolingo alone as some of the pronunciation and context isn’t quite accurate (yet). It’s all an experience and you’ve clearly been learning lots if you had good top of mind memory of the phrasing when out and about in Japan, so big well done on that!
Wood I discovered your channel around 2014 and have been a follower since then. I'm so happy for you that you are achieveing your goals :) I remember you mentioning something like "someday, I will go to Japan to buy a lot of 3DS games". And here you are, on your second trip buying Switch games. Keep on keeping on, dude! Much love from Spain
My favorite part was the sweet deal on VITURE glasses you found in Akihabara. Truly a unicorn experience to find 120in of enjoyment at such a low price.
HIGHLY recommend the countryside of Japan. It's a completely different vibe than the cities and it ended up being my favourite in Japan. If you want to see the true countryside you will need to rent a car though but it's completely worth it.
It was a lovely trip, very enjoyable. Thank you for coming to Japan. We, too, will continue to study and do our best to serve and live in a way that will please everyone overseas. Thank you.😮❤
I absolutely love your vlog style episodes Wood. There’s something so incredibly genuine about how you narrate them. They really seem to give a unique insight into you as a person as much as it does about the amazing places you travel to. I’ve loved following the Japan journey here and on the podcast. Thanks so much for sharing what looks to have been an incredible trip.
I know it's exhausting filming and might even take some of the fun out of the trip, but I really appreciate that you did! I want to go so bad, but it will be quite a while before I get to. Thank you, Wood! Thank you, Kim! And yeah, okay, thanks, Bob. I guess.
(10:12) That area being the inspiration for an area in the Persona series (or one of the games) reminded me of Bluey as the title character's hometown in that TV series turned out to have been modelled after parts of Brisbane, in Australia, where Ludo Studio (who produce the series) is based, and some fans had put out videos and articles comparing the fictional locations to the real locations. I imagined that a similar thing happened with the game series' development studio in which some of the development/design team members took inspiration from locations they were familiar with.
I went in April with a group of friends and visited many of the same places. These videos and the Nontendo podcasts have been such a fun revisit to many of the things I saw and did and some that I missed. It's also wonderful to be able to share with loved ones who didn't come with. I'm glad you had a great time
This has made me realise one thing, now I know where to go for vacation when I’m done with high school. And maybe even move to for a short while, this is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen, countryside and everything omg❤
You talk about how busy the pokemon store was... but that was empty compared to the time I was there... I couldn't even go into the Nintendo store because the wait was 45 minutes.
Wood, awesome video. Love the vlogs. I just got back from my honeymoon in Japan and I think I just missed you! (1-5 Oct in Tokyo, 8-11 Oct in Kyoto/Osaka) Missing it already so I'm grateful to relive it again through these videos. But I realised you didn't buy any Switch games in this vlog despite the title lol 😅
im in love with these vlogs man. ive been to japan already and im going again soon but dang. your vlogs are just.. pure bliss. i love to see how you view japan and what you do. youre just good vibes. glad you had fun
From personal experience traveling to Japan, if you can afford it next time go for an entire month where you gradually travel down the island visiting all the different towns filled with culture and things to do. Nara is a great day trip to see the deer as well as going to Hiroshima to see the atomic dome and going on this full day biking marathon which is absolutely gorgeous. I would also recommend seeing more of the temples and shrines which are absolutely gorgeous (not just the really famous ones) and the palaces as well as going to an onsen.
These videos are so good. Giving me all the feels. I can’t wait for the day I actually make it there. Living vicariously through these in the mean time
Love these videos. Never know what you might see along the way. Also the cafe featured in Persona 5 looks very cozy, and chill. Love it That train ride, and the atmosphere. Beautiful The Nintendo hotel is fantastic
One pIece has always been huge specialy in japan, theres a reason its the biggest piece of comic/manga made by one person and its 2nd to superman in whole history in only a quarter of supermans lifespan 🐐
Hey Wood. No clue if you'll see this but it would be amazing if you or Bob can share your itinerary for the trip. I will Plan a trip next year and would lobe a base to start from.
This is SO FREAKING COOL! AHHHH! FEEEELS! I love EVERYTHING about this! I'm cataloguing all the places you're going so I can go there, too, when I take my bro and his wife there someday! lol. Seeing all the yummy food and cool video game places is AWESOME! I'm actually getting teary-eyed watching this 'cause I want to go back so badly! lol. (How do you guys not get lost, though?? I had a Japanese friend to guide me last time. lol. Do your phones let you use Google Maps or smth? lol.)
So glad to see you go again. I originally came across your channel after looking up Japan videos in January of 2020. I was told new years eve going into 2020 that I would be going there for as a present for my 30th bday. We was due to go in the May but covid hit and wasn't able to go. Safe to say I still haven't been and I'm more jealous now seeing this video! Lol. Won't be going for a while now as have a baby so will be at least another few years before we even think about it
Japan is not the only place where wagyu cows are bred. There is also American wagyu. Although they use different feeding techniques for the cows; they are both very delicious.
You guys should make a BUSINESS trip to Japan. Where the objective is to make as many videos as possible about Japan and games because these videos are great
I literally stayed at the Tokyo Hilton last month and had no clue the buffet was from Persona 5 !!! that's pretty awesome !! and I see you also took a bunch of smoothie shots like I did , so goooood 🤤
We actually stayed at the Nintendo HOTEL! 😍 Kim's Video - ruclips.net/video/IURe6faJG28/видео.html

I can't lie...I'm just watching this until my Spider-Man 2 game loads up. Switch games are the LAST THING on my mind
Thanks for this. You're a really important person to many of us and you're doing the things we dream of and sharing. Keep doing that 💛💙🧡
Thats cool!
at the end of the previous video you said ''bye, see you tomorrow'' in japanese. So I've been worried that something might happened in your life, since we didn't see you the day after.
Hope you're all good!
Love your Japan vlogs🍣🍜😻
How much did your trips cost for one cuz I want to go someday but idk if I can afford it
These videos are genuinely my favourite on YT. I love seeing how awesome Japan is. One day I'll go 😊
Yes! I want to go so badly! Some day. Some day
I would’ve asked to go for my birthday, but I didn’t bother because I have graduation pretty close to it
Yeah some day me and my dad will go
It's my life goal to visit
I wanna go, but remember, Japan does have the capability to not be awesome sometimes too
i like how hes using the journey across japan music in his japan vlog. im curious if he watches abroad in japan
At 9:35 it felt like I was watching an AbroadInJapan video with the soundtrack. Lmao
This was probably the most insightful video of Japan I've seen yet. Everybody does the whole touristy thing of Akihabra, Super Potato, Hard-Off/Book-off, etc., but I've never seen a video this deep into things that are NOT the typical touristy things.

14:51 I tried to tell you the last Japan trip to hook up with AkiDearest. She’s recently done country side type vids too.
Im actually planning on going to japan sometime next year definitely cant wait to go but trying learn Japanese very difficult

Part 2, let’s go!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Love how you used the abroad in Japan RUclips channel music
So glad you enjoyed your time and spent it with friends is also even more special. Although you mentioned the return flight wasn't the best, you seemed much more relaxed throughout this trip. Sending digital hugs to the BeatEmUps Team! 😊
I truly don’t think he has any anxiety problems. Lol I have anxiety. I can’t even go to the shop, let alone Japan.
@@Joe-p9lI have severe anxiety and I went to Hawaii- 9.5 hour flight. I even had some panic attacks leading up to and even one mid flight. Sometimes you need to just push through to do things. He also is probably being treated- meds didn’t work for me, unfortunately.

Wonderful. I felt like I was there. Thanks for all the hard work you put into this

Been waiting for ages for this!!! Your Japan vlogs have been my fav
Wow! Wood I can't believe you remember my recommendation to go to Rain on the Roof! I told you about it on your last stream before you left!
How did you guys pack so much awesome into 19 minutes and 52 seconds?! 😮 That's my dream holiday right there ❤️
Wood I discovered your channel around 2014 and have been a follower since then.

Thanks for sharing! It has been a pleasure to watch these videos with my kids and hear them scream in excitement about Mario or Pikachu!
I love Japan. I've been there once. Thank you for the video.
Absolutely loving these Japan videos. Did you see Metal Jesus Rocks when you were there???
My favorite part was the sweet deal on VITURE glasses you found in Akihabara. Truly a unicorn experience to find 120in of enjoyment at such a low price.
I got the isabelle statue when i went to that store. That entire floor had so much shopping.
HIGHLY recommend the countryside of Japan. It's a completely different vibe than the cities and it ended up being my favourite in Japan. If you want to see the true countryside you will need to rent a car though but it's completely worth it.

9:34 bro played that abroad in japan music
@8:33 “no whammies” 😂 i havent heard anyone reference The Whammy is years! It was my favorite game show🥰🤙🏽
Video games aside. Glad you all had fun on your visit! Its not all about the games.
Your previous vlog going to Japan was one of my favorite video series . Now I’m pumped when I see new ones go live . Love this , Thankyou for sharing
Awesomeness!! Just got home and about to fire up my Mario Wonder right now!! Hope I can go to Japan one day. It's been a lifelong dream of mine.
nice video, I enjoy them so much. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait for my third Japan trip this coming winter.
Japan is the best place I've ever been. This video convinced me to go again! Thanks mate
I know it's exhausting filming and might even take some of the fun out of the trip, but I really appreciate that you did! I want to go so bad, but it will be quite a while before I get to. Thank you, Wood! Thank you, Kim!
And yeah, okay, thanks, Bob. I guess.

Love the format for these travel vlogs. I cant wait to see more!
Yes part two love your videos man. Keep going man you’re doing good.
I just came back from Japan yesterday and did the countryside in Shikoku. I highly recommend it!
im in love with these vlogs man. ive been to japan already and im going again soon but dang. your vlogs are just.. pure bliss. i love to see how you view japan and what you do. youre just good vibes. glad you had fun
Really enjoying the series and the love evident and put into it!
Why did this video get me teary-eyed. I wasn't on the trip and have never in Japan.
Yes! Another Japan video! I love these!
Thanks again Wood, going in November in these videos Truly do help. Much luv 🔥🤘🏾🖤!!!
These videos are awesome. Some of the best content you’ve ever made (from a long time fan). Can’t wait for the next one.
I am Japanese. please come to Japan again. Japan has beautiful nature and hospitality. I'm impressed by how cheap it is.
From personal experience traveling to Japan, if you can afford it next time go for an entire month where you gradually travel down the island visiting all the different towns filled with culture and things to do. Nara is a great day trip to see the deer as well as going to Hiroshima to see the atomic dome and going on this full day biking marathon which is absolutely gorgeous.

These are some the most wholesome videos on the channel!! Love it so much 😊
i remember the old japan vlogs like they were yesterday, crazy that was in 2019!
These videos are so good. Giving me all the feels. I can’t wait for the day I actually make it there. Living vicariously through these in the mean time
Really enjoy your travel videos Wood. You should do more other than just gaming videos.
Wood I love these!!! To be honest they should be like 40 mins long each 😁 pretty please!
Thank you SOOO much for sharing these vlogs! I hope to maybe visit Japan one day. It seems so amazing!
Love these videos. Never know what you might see along the way. Also the cafe featured in Persona 5 looks very cozy, and chill. Love it
That train ride, and the atmosphere. Beautiful
The Nintendo hotel is fantastic
4:50 pork buns are so freakin good! Red bean buns ar fantastic too
Just watched Metal Jesus Rocks and came here immediately after. What a great sendoff for the weekend!
I'm loving this series. I've been taking notes for my own trip. Thanks Wood!
I adore these videos. I find listening to you narrate adventures like this so relaxing and fun!
Thank you for the Japan videos wood 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This and your first Japan series vlogs are by far my the best videos on my news feed.
One pIece has always been huge specialy in japan, theres a reason its the biggest piece of comic/manga made by one person and its 2nd to superman in whole history in only a quarter of supermans lifespan 🐐
These videos make me miss Japan so much
Literally wake up every morning and checked for part 2 since the first one!!!!!! So excited 🎉🎉🎉
love your vids man! keep it up. Makes me want to go to Japan even more. Time to plan a trip for 2024!! :D
Speaking of Switch games, my copy of Super Mario Bros. Wobder came in from UPS today
Hey Wood. No clue if you'll see this but it would be amazing if you or Bob can share your itinerary for the trip. I will Plan a trip next year and would lobe a base to start from.
Love not only the trip you´re sharing but also how well this video is edited! Amazing watch

I love this series so much!
With my first Mario game was super Mario world on the SNES mini and soon I’m gonna play Mario wonder it looks great
since the next one is the last video of the trip i hope its long enough to enjoy
"Drove me to the passion of being a gamer" while showing THAT drawing 😂😂😂
Japan is not the only place where wagyu cows are bred. There is also American wagyu. Although they use different feeding techniques for the cows; they are both very delicious.
I love the Japan vlogs so much. Also, Persona 5 is an amazing game(highly recommend to anyone who hasnt played it yet). 🌸🇯🇵
Great videos man, keep up the amazing work! Your vlogs are the best. Hope I can make it out to Japan one day!
You guys should make a BUSINESS trip to Japan. Where the objective is to make as many videos as possible about Japan and games because these videos are great
When you have all the parts up I think you should make a marathon version where they’re all in a row :)
This is one of my most favorite videos from you in a while. Can’t wait for the next part.
I literally stayed at the Tokyo Hilton last month and had no clue the buffet was from Persona 5 !!! that's pretty awesome !! and I see you also took a bunch of smoothie shots like I did , so goooood 🤤
These are great. Defo makes me want to get to Japan more. Keep up the great work.
I actually just bought persona 5 royal today( eshop sale, go take a look) . It will be my first jrpg game experience btw.. Soo excited ..
That nintendo store is definitely a stairway to heaven as right behind it is a giant luffy statue
One piece content man
Dude is the GOAT
LOL Kim "just leave that awkward transition"
man the frame rate of these vlogs is so comforting
Today is Spider-Man 2 day a true next gen game can’t say the same for Nintendo Switch games
