NOTIFICATION SQUAD: The video starts at 07:52.
Am I right though? Is it just me or do 9/10 TV shows and films in Japan kick off with someone walking across Shibuya crossing?!
Sorry about the wait for this video folks - I've been working hard on Journey Across Japan: Escape to Fuji! For more details on the upcoming series you can check it out here (www.abroadinjapan.com/escape-to-fuji). It's going to be a lot of fun and it kicks off in the last week of October! The only question remains, should we bring back Dr Jelly? Hmm...
nice
nice
Nice
nice
absolutely yes!!
Futons = Sleep.
Seeing Natsuki as Professor Snape = No Sleep.
Lol
Sexy Snape lol
布団の中から出たくない
I think that snape is ill intentioned...
As a semi-amateur Snape cosplayer, I was fully prepared to scoff at your conclusion. How could anyone be more menacing than... OH. That's how.
Well played, sirs, well played.
Natuski Potter and the Chambers of Cigarettes
Someone needs to make that into a movie poster and send copies to both Chris & Natsuki xD
Hanging out with little boys in spandex I see
😂
Natuski Potter and the goblet of match fire
@@Joseph-ey8vv no, no spandex. that is Batski this is Professor Natsuki playing with his magic wands of fire (sigaretten). and teaching both young boys and girls the world of magic while running around with a cloak. (and only a cloak)
I forgot my very expensive camera in Tokyo on a table outside a café, I thought it was in my backpack , came back 3 hours later, and the camera was on the table with two people sitting at the table. AMAZING
Aww that is a great story!!! Think of Tokyo as your home. Leave things, come back to grab them!
I cannot think of another place on earth that that would be the case. It says a lot about the level of morality common in the people. Mind, in other places, the done thing would be for someone to pick up a left-behind valuable and hand it over to the owner of the establishment for safe keeping and that's generally a done thing in the UK where I live unless you're in a busy city I guess.
@@hannahk3518 It's better than home. If I leave my stuff anywhere unattended in my own house my sister would call dibs on it!
Can definitely relate. Especially when you're biking around (great for exercise) you can just park your bike on one area which may be full of your belongings on the basket and go to a convenience store for some drinks or the bathroom and see your stuff in one piece once you get back. Make's traveling around the city by bike less stressful and more fun overall, helped me a lot on losing weight as well.
U should do the same in London ..
"... When he first landed in Japan" makes me think of Chris actually flying in himself by flopping his arms and plopping down in the middle of a runway😂
Better than BA!
Isn't this how british people get everywhere?
The visual I got from that...LOL!
He ate enough strawberry cheesecake to give him the energy for the trip.
Personally I think that Chris has aged pretty well and looks better than 8 years ago.
He ages like a fine wine.
@Troy Krentz yeah, he’s not though?
He's always look good people are just mean and so since they feel bad about themselves they go out and scrutinize others to make themselves fell good.
I have no idea what some of you are on about. He looks like a handsome adult man!
He ages like a buttered scott
What better way to start my morning than with a sarcastic brit in Japan.
its night
in asia
dud dont u have homework dont procastinate i got sarcastic remark ny my britgamersfriend with timezone-smartass
dont make me drag him here to be armchair-geograpeeps its sheffield btw santosoS
Best kind of Brit there is
with a sarcastic brit in North Korea, I imagine.
someone, make it happen...
I wonder what the passing pedestrians must have thought about an attractive, yet sarcastic and grumpy Englishman yelling out "JAPAN! BLAH BLAH BLAH."
closet xD
*Just politely ignore the foreigner and everything will be fine
I guess they don't really care what he is talking about is the most likely scenario.
“What does Japan smell like” the question I didn’t know I needed answering.
idk, but I might go there one day and find out, i need to know too
Huh, it's honestly hard to describe
Stopping my Japanese study time for this. This is the same, isn't it?
Yes
I’m seeing you everywhere these days it seems. Keep up your great work.
@@Chanmin2007nz you don't want to see my youtube watch time...
Didn't expect to meet you here. But it does make sense.
This isn't study, but it could be an inspiration recharge. So, time well spent.
I feel like Chris exists only to bring sarcastic balance to Japan
Not a necessarily bad thing
Enjoy the gent off Chris!
Exists to hunt engrish words 😂
Dude! I've been watching his channel for about a week since I decided to learn Japanese... I agree so much 😂
The balance of power must be witheld.
They don't even know what sarcasm is.
@@xcalibertrekker6693 considering how sarcastic I am , I deadass won't be able to live and make friends in Japan
It's been a while since I've watched any of your videos. Alas, your style hasn't changed! You go sarcastic but surprisingly honest and sincere. Maybe that's not a compliment to a British guy but I insist. Your accent still gives me hard time understanding what you say at times because I'm more accustomed to American accent. Yet your content and intent is too interesting not to see. I'm back, will become a loyal viewer again. Thanks!
Good to see you again Yoshi! I hope you've been well!
Put on autogenerated captions. It might help out a bit. :)
@@RA-fw5yc I thought it might :)
Just happened to be watching the 12 tips for learning Japanese video today and found you there lol. 5 years ago.
@@technophobian2962 LoL 😂
Absolutely agree with safety/security part. I remember cycling to Shinjuku's main street and not locking my bike for half an hour. Always there at the end. Meanwhile in Europe it gets stolen even locked up during lockdown...
From experience, you are 100% spot on about the camera angles 🤣
10:26 for the lazy
Also light angles. In the "younger, chiseled chin" photo notice the light angle too.
Yea, he's spot on about Japan too.
On the more trust in society: My friend was out late clubbing and ended up having to catch one of the morning trains, but once she got to our train station the buses weren't going to be running for a couple of hours and she couldn't be bothered walking 20 minutes so she just SLEPT. She just had a nap at the train station. And felt perfectly safe doing it.
Sounds like a good way to loose a organ in most places in the world.
Or good way to look vulnerable in ALL places in the world
Hmmm... even in Japan that's a bit risky. Molestation and things like that. I remember I had to ask directions after dark and although the woman I hailed helped me, she did a quick double take and I could tell she was making sure I wasn't dangerous looking. Your friend was just young and dumb I think, people do stuff like that anywhere and until they have a bad experience think they're invincible. For stuff like theft though, absolutely Japan is crazy safe.
@@CaptainWumbo we were fortunate to also be in a really really good suburb. The kind of place where every house had a high end car hahah (and have security cameras in front of their houses) of course there were still risks but it was certainly less risky than many other places in the world.
Train stations are generally safe places to sleep. I’ve slept in enough stations in London and it’s fine. In Japan it’s very safe I wouldn’t worry.
I know this is a super late comment, but I've been binging your content recently. The last point you made about how Japan has made you more appreciative of things really resonated with me. I was born and raised in America, but ever since I was really young I've always had such a high regard for my possessions, especially my electronics. Maybe it was because I was shown Totoro and saw the original Toy Story in theaters around when I was a toddler, but I have also felt a sense of "life" in the things that I own, leading me to treat them with a lot more respect than I can imagine the average person would. It's just always been pretty normal to me to treat objects with a sort of reverence, so it's heartening to hear that there's more of a culture of that over in Japan. I've always wanted to go to Japan, but your channel and others like yours have been a big inspiration to really make a serious push to go. Keep it up and I hope you're still enjoying life over there. Thanks for doing what you do
Living here in japan for 13 years now I’m really adopting their lifestyle.
I can't believe there was someone who could roleplay Snape scarier than Snape himself, Truly terrifying stuff Natsuki
Natsuki as Snape... that’s going to stay with me for a while
"Rabbit Island is the safest."
Me: Not if the rabbits are zombies. *Remembering what happened in Re: Zero*
Hehe
@Taiwanlight **shudders**
That is EXACTLY what my first thoughts were.
I was searching for this commernt
Re:zero rabbits vs Monty Python rabbits
who would win?
By the way, I think you’re handsome, Chris 😳 So forget about those fat shaming comments, you definitely look healthier than before ☺️
I don't get why people complain about Chris' weight. How many of those would be capable of doing a 2000km bike tour?
It's petty people who are externalizing their own problems instead of getting therapy. It's getting pretty obnoxious though, they should focus on making their own lives great and keep the quiet part quiet.
Wait, did Chris do a 2000km bike tour? Send me the link or title of the video
@@hanyuu8672 he did an entire series called Journey Across Japan, very easy to find.
I think he looks good for his age (he doesn't seem overweight to me, but that could be the camera angle or something), to each their own.
It might be the Bri'ish culture of 'banter', that is basically offending your friends. Maybe it can be translated to American English as 'roasting', but 1) I'm not a British-American culture pro to claim it certainly enough; 2) AFAIK British banter seems to be less funny, more offensive and less aimed at the potential audience to appreciate the joke you make, thus making it more sincere and wholesome IMO. When you banter, you just tell your friend he's a strawberry cheesecake-eating fatso for the sake of saying it, not for the societal credit and dominance points you'd get from publicly 'roasting' him.
Last time I was this early Chris still liked bikes.
“Creme brûlée now that’s where the action is” never agreed with someone more
LOL.
You’re so hilarious and I’m so glad this channel is still authentic and not over-produced, thank you!! I hope I can visit Japan some day
I'm one of the 50% who don't like football. Good on you!
I'm surprised you never moved to Japan tbh.
Same!!! Dont care for it at all! Yay!
living on the source continent of the big green dub. why should someone wanna leave that? :D
Likewise, so I moved to Australia....where they have 4 codes of football, but only one of them sucks
Oh shit its MasakoX. Hello how you doing! Lol
As a native Japanese I have to point out that when you put a sheet on your futon, you tuck it under on all four sides, otherwise the sheet comes loose from the sides as you move about while you sleep and you are essentially sleeping on a bare futon, which then completely takes away the whole purpose of putting the sheet on in the first place, which is to keep your futon clean and free of germ that comes off of your body. Keep up the great work nonetheless, Chris - from a big fan of yours.
I have to say you continuously make one of the most high-quality videos here I've seen on YT.
You connect different parts of the video together so Seamless, are funny and entertaining at the same time also educational.
How come you can put out all of this for free? This is Crazy. It's like a whole studio is behind this
I just want to say that your voice is soooo relaxing and soothing. I watch a few similar channels but after a stressfull day I just watch it, but your weird british voice lowers the stress level so much!
I could make a video called "How watching you making videos about Japan has changed me". Because it really has, these videos are gold, funny, well produced with a perfect dose of sarcasm. I have a new-found love for all things japanese thanks to you.
Chris: "I don't want to hurt table san."
Also Chris: *made a video dedicated to a video game about flipping tables*
Which one is it Chris?!
When I heard him say that, I was like, no wonder why people create memes such as Earth-chan or coronavirus-chan
@@kiavra1789 Yeah but they are influenced by the japanese culture.
Table-san -30hp
By this he subtly tried to show, that he overcame his nature from the past
Good to have you back Chris. Great video. Missed your videos. Keep them coming!
Went to japan for the first time last year, miss it so much, loved it there, more than any other country I’ve been to. The people are super respectful and you always feel very safe and welcomed as a foreigner.
Nothing to see here, just a foreign guy yelling BLA BLA BLA in his camera on Shibuya crossing. Great start of the video!
I was so confused...lol
"I'm Slap, I'll get to Mr Horry Potter" - Professor Natsuki Slap
Chris could be Harry and Ryotaro could be Voldemort. Lol
I totally love living in japan we have just got to 16 years of living here and I would not change a thing. Except never seeing my husband who works long hrs. Ohh and their weird obsession with baseball what is it about that?? Love the Q&A,’s
Thank you for your videos. My husband just got orders for Fussa Japan with the AF and I have been nervous about the move. Your channel has made me more than excited to go!
Obviously Gent Off is what happens when you drink too much Gent Off. The gentleman in you takes a leave of absence.

Don't worry Chris, Man United fans would like to pretend football didn't exist either right now.
DAMN YO THIS COMMENT RIGHT HERE
😂still hurting
Sad but true 😢GGMU
rubs hands vigorously
Haters gonna hate.. We will be back soon, Living rent free in everyone's head XD
Really enjoyed this one, as well as the car episode I saw yesterday. Have been living, and driving around in Japan for about 15 years now and started taking many of the special things here for granted. Chris has a fresh and sometimes funny view on many of those very recognizable things.
Hi Chris. I just love how the latter part of this video was so sincere and that makes me apparently pretty happy. Just pretty feelgood stuff.
It's because of you that I've been teaching english to Japanese students for almost a year now
I love how you turn everything into a positive note with your sarcasm and brush stuff off with a laid-back attitude, but these nasty comments about weight are just infuriating. It's just not healthy to be constantly offensive to people who are producing good content and making us a little happier and more informed about Japan.
This!! I'm very upset at these complete strangers having the audacity to comment on his weight. He looks great!!
🤲🏼🤲🏼🤲🏼 yes yes everything you said. It’s so frustrating people criticize things that don’t even matter. I think he’s successful, hilarious, creative, and all around a genuine aura. That’s all that matters.
It’s unoriginal keyboard warriors, Chris ends up makings them look like idiots anyways!
Maybe try and lighten up just a little? He's been self-deprecatingly joking about his weight since the very beginning. It's a schtick. It's pretty funny. He uses pathos as a comedic device, and it lands pretty well most of the time.
Yeah, he looks fine, but that's beside the point: he's engaging and keeps stirring this topic up on purpose, because he can play off it.
yeah true !! And he doesn't look bad either . And he isn't obese he is just chubby . I think he is healthy enough . Idk why they feel the need to comment on his weight as if they have a body of Apollo.
man i really love how you did this video. it was easy to watch all the fun stuff at the beginning. I almost forgot what I was watching for the title.
That shirt is genius!
Also enjoyed hearing and learning with your answer to how you’ve changed living there
Natsuki impression of Snape is by far the best thing of 2020 so far!
No idea why people would care for his weight or whatever. He’s super cute and is beautiful in the in and outside - I personally wouldn’t want him to look like a damn thin chopstick. You are great and so are your videos and content. Much love for Chris
weight issues = health issues = early death, so yes people care.
@@dabillya6845 Of course people care. However, they do not need to be dicks about it.
Chris is a Legend thanks so much for your content always a good laugh and interesting to watch also thank you for suggesting James May: Our Man In Japan im loving it please never stop making content I truly cannot wait for my opportunity to visit Japan
Chris, you've just made the best opening of the channel
when I was a kid, I treated objects like living things. Anything I played a lot with, I treated them like they were my best friend. But my family and the people around me found that weird and broke my stuff or they'd get stolen. I lost a part of myself since then, but hearing you tell me that parents tell their children to treat their objects like living things really brought it all back. I watch Japanese vtubers and they also add kun and san at the end of objects. It's really endearing and funny.
Great video btw, watched until the very end, as always!
Although i didn't see them as living things i was always very careful with things which made appreciative of stuff overall
OMG I was the same! I thought all inanimate objects had some type of conscience and had feelings too. One day I decided to sing a 'thank you song' I made up to our family car - to express my gratitude for carrying my family around. I thought that our car would feel hurt that nobody appreciated what it did. Then my dad came and was utterly confused by what I was doing XD
It sorta makes sense. Someone went through the effort of making it, so by breaking it you are disrespectful of their efforts.
I used to do that as a kid too. For example when I accidentally knocked over a stuffed toy off my bed I felt instantly sad and apologised to it.
Great videos, Chris. I lived in Japan for 10 years and returned to the UK in 2015. I think we have both had a similar experience while living there, particularly in how it has changed us. Really enjoying your channel. Thanks!
I really enjoyed the editing in this video!
I'm literally going to start telling my toddler, 'don't hit Mr. Table', since he's recently starting hitting everything he can. We'll see how it goes.
Teaching kids to respect objects at an early age will save them a whole lot of money (and begging them to clean their shit up) in the future.
It actually works. Or so it seems so far.
If anyone has seen the movie 'Lost in Translation', there's a scene where there's a guy at a party wearing a Pizza of Death Records t-shirt. I always wanted to buy that shirt!
I came to the comment section just to look if anyone would know this! I saw the movie recently and was very surprised to see a label I used to follow
Haha yeah I remember that
Just watched this movie, weird coincidence
Chris, ur comment on the bbq chickens helped me pinpoint exactly what makes u special.. i can PERFECTLY see the humor in the things u highlight, but i can never manage to put it into words, somehow ure able to communicate the irony/stupidty of things and give us enough freedom to laugh at whatever we deem worthy enough of it. (90°bow)
"Land of the rising FUN" 😂😂😂😂
"Tokyo Japan! Blah blah blah, 36 million people blah blah blah, like a different planet blah blah blah..." 😂😂😂
Such a beautiful intro. 👌

Bonus points for the possibility of an innuendo.
I really enjoyed the May series as well.
great video chris!!!
"What does Japan smell like?" is a silly question, but one of the most memorable things from my trip there was walking past an alley and getting hit by the incredible smell from some tiny noodle shop. And this happened multiple times. It was mainly the cognitive dissonance, coming from a country where alleys do not smell like that, that really cemented it in my mind.
“What does Japan smell like?”
Probably not piss. Hopefully.
@@dasfinalgaming bruh have you seen Tokyo night life , they're gonna have to pee somewhere
As David says, the aromas of various cuisines stick indelibly in mind. So much so that if a "Japanese" restaurant where I now live does not smell like Japan, I won't eat there. However, Japan can also smell like a cloud of diesel thick enough to close your throat as buses idle at a rest stop. Or incense drifting across the neighbourhood from temple grounds. Or a natto fart rising from a sewer grate as you wait at a traffic light. Or various minerals borne out of the earth on vapours rising from an onsen. I could go on and on....
Every part of a country smells differently...
There are smells from home you could miss in another country though.
Highlight of the video is
NATSUKI: "I'M SNEP!"
Really enjoyed this vid. Each point was very interesting!
James May in Japan is what got me to this Channel. Life changing
Chris: "Land of the rising sun, more like land of the rising fun"
Chris: *immediately regrets the words that comes out of his mouth*
It was probably planned.
@@fangornthewise probably but shhhh don't ruin it
It's all those random quotes on the crazy quote items he buys finally influencing him. 😂
Don't know why people keep saying Chris is fat or whatever, he's a very attractive man. Also, who cares, it's the content we're here for!
For Japan's Standards, he's fat.
Kinda sad how the western standards fell off over the years that you can't even state the obvious.
That said, is he obese or awfully fat? Nope, but he is fat
@@nyar9568 imo he isn't even fat. Ofc he's not slim but he isn't fat. He looks average
@@artistflare9072 In japan, the average is very slim. It's rare here to see someone like him.
I understand that in the west that is regarded more towards being a "normal weight", but here in Japan it isn't.
Anyway, in Japan they usually say that as a way for you to work on yourself, rarely as an insult.
@@nyar9568 yes I understand but these comments i doubt are made by Japanese people. As the majority of his fanbase is from the west.
Also even if they were made by japanese people it doesn't excuse it. I understand that in japan they have different standards, but they also have different body builds. We need to stop excusing things just because they are normal in another culture.
@@artistflare9072 Don't go into the whole "culture thing". If you live in Japan, you deal with the culture here.
In Japan, ppl call you out on getting fat, to your face. Like I said above, it's done for self-improvement, not as an insult. But they are pretty direct about it.
Brilliant channel, I have learn't so much about Japan through you. We are planning a trip in 2021, so this channel is helping us a lot in understanding the complexities of Japan. Thank you!
I love this format of your videos the most, even though I enjoy basically all of them, it's just that the jokes here are more packed together into a compact punch, which always makes me laugh out loud, your comedy is simply the Gem among gems!
But Chris... every conversation on football starts the same
"Did you see that ludicrous display last night?"
Haha IT crowd references are tight!
What was Wenger thinking subbing Walcott on that early?
The thing about Arsenal is that they always try to walk it in. But Chelsea on the other hand I like them suddenly
I get the joke! Yay lolol

Viewer: "What Western thing would you bring to Japan?"
Chris: "Work-life balance"
Me: *Laughs in American*
Me: *Laughs in Slovakian* Average number of monthly work hours: 180
@@Szabysvk that's pretty nice actually. We have 270-300+ monthly work hours here in India.
@@deep7051 from the statistics i am lookin at, , if we would average out 270-300 monthly work hours to 280, that would mean average work time would be 3360 hours per year(140days out of 365 including weekends), so you would overshoot india by another 1200hours (1st at 2160hours), so, i doubt your numbers , there can be few months that you pull 270, but thats not all the time, you would have more deaths from overwork than Japan
*cries in japanese*
*laughs in NEET*
I really enjoy Chris' personality. He's hilarious.
The Fat ones are always jolly /s
The Natsuke Snape impersonation absolutely slayed me.
More of this Chris, really loved this.
Awesome video Chris.
I agree, the James May series was absolutely brilliant. People do forget that there is more to Japan than downtown Tokyo. Can't wait to go and explore it...
I watched it last month and thought it was pretty good and fun too.
You pointed it out very well. There are so many places in Japan, natural and cultural wonders, but only few tourists know them.
Chris you definitely look wayyy better now than you did 8 years ago. I'm a straight man but you are honestly a good looking chap
@@Peachelliver I'm Egyptian 😂 but I know what you mean, Chap is not in my usual lexicon
I dislike the fat comments. He's not fat. In Western culture standards he's fine (better then fine 😌)
@@courage8tsu I dislike them too. Even IF he was fat, why would anyone still feel the need to comment that? I'm guessing they type comments without giving much thought on what effect their words can have. Negative unnecessary comments are always going to exist I suppose
Why does your sexuality matter. Just give a compliment and if someone says something about it then it is their problem not yours.
Another great one - as enjoyable as always. Excellent!
Spot on about the futon. I think its the stability of floor that helps sleeping. Kind of connection to the ground
In the music section a band called "bollocks" was just above them which is definitely more punk but still not the best name
Never mind them
Omg, that’s the most sellable name in the world, I’m listening to them!!
Bollocks sounds like a British swear word to me. "Oh Bollocks!" Lol
@@danae5578 It is LOL
@@danae5578 it is, but depending on how you use it (or if you preface the word with either "the" or "dogs") it can also be a positive word - British slang is a strange beast
The idea of every object having a life force has some truth to it. Every man made object was made with some sort of hard work, sacrifice, and passion. Same thing when it comes to other objects found in nature every thing was made from a certain process it didn’t just pope into existence. So I guess Japanese ancient culture realized that and people in Japan subconsciously carry this thought. Still it is a really good lesson to teach to kids. Makes you more attentive and caring towards your surrounding environment.

Exactly. Even if it's mass-produced, somebody did design it, design the molds, choose material and finish, designed the interface, software or whatever. In western culture, people seem to bash things without thought, be it an item, show, or even another person on the internet as if they aren't real somehow (seriously, they are, and they have feelings too just like you!). In Japanese culture, people seem to be more mindful each others' and just about everything's existence.
Rs Dzayer - I really like and appreciate your thoughtful summary here. It makes sense. And definitely a good thing to teach appreciation early on to kids!
Omg that snape!! This might be one of your best videos without even trying
Just wanted to say that I really love your video's and your humour. This channel quickly is becoming one of my favorite channels. 😁👍 Great job mate
I love how you couldn’t even say “land of the rising fun” with a straight face
It really drives me crazy how people can't stop being toxic and keep commenting someone's body image. Chris seems to be an amazingly funny, talented, smart and handsome guy sharing his experience and humour. An ideal friend/boyfriend material. %)) love your channel, greetings from Poland
Agreed. People's weight fluctuates throughout the year. It's normal. I wish people would stop focusing so much on it.
I agree. He's got sarcasm galore, his charm is there too... Hi from San Francisco, California, 🇺🇸.
You realize that he is selecting those comments right? He likes those comments because he can play off of them, and he seems to select the engrish ones because engrish amuses him.
@@katestargate bruh. Theres me with my infinite metabolism. No matter what i eat i dont gain weight.
Same! It's so unnecessary!
Chris. One of your most solid videos of late. The day I noticed your mastery of video editing which went beyond anything I'd seen on RUclips was (interestingly,) your two part weight loss episodes with Regan, (speaking of fat shaming.) In the video you did not give his full name, or what he ate while in Japan. (Sweet potato mainly..) The editing style in that video blew me out of the water. Your humor, honesty, and good nature shine through in each of your productions. Thank you. This story superlatively refreshing than usual!!! {Trying and failing to sound like engrish.. sorry.}
3:54 as a brazillian who doesn't like football i find this relatable, but here it is way more than 50%
"Land of the Rising Sun more like land of the rising fun."
Dude you just made another t-shirt.
Were gonna put something 18+ on the shirt aren't we?
Hi Chris!! I hope you are well. My husband and myself have been watching you for years now and we deeply enjoy your content. My husband is having a rough year (but who isn't, right?) so I know it will lift his spirits if you said hi. Anyways I know I am being the annoying fan so I'll go now - thank you for helping us cope and lighten our days through the years.
This is always good and reliable comedy gold. Thank you
Just found this channel and it’s amazing

Hey, you sound well tuned for a happy life in Japan. Enjoy Chris and stay safe.
One of my favourite Japanese band names: Bump of Chicken.
I’ve lived in Japan for over 7 years and everything Chris says is spot on. The best thing is that you don’t have to worry about random violence walking the streets alone in the middle of the night. You always feel safe. But what is it about small apartments? Where are you living Chris. I lived right outside of Tokyo and I have a 2 bedroom apartment for 70,000 yen per month (under $700.00). I have more room here for half the price I was paying in America for a 1 bedroom apartment 7 years ago!
I pay 500 for 1 room in California 😭
@@rodolfo7077 I pay $500 for half an attic in Oregon...
There's tons of places where you don't have to be afraid of violence walking around at night.
日本にも不審者はたくさんいますけどね....
That's less than I pay for my literal single room and shared common space in northern California. I am saddened by reading this 😂
Just found the channel, and props on the effort you put onto it! It may have been mentioned before, but what generally to locals think about or/know about their history- specifically around the Muromachi/Edo era (1336 through 1868).
Really love the content, you are one of the best youtubers period. Recommend you should travel the world and do videos of other countries as well
