      It is amusing to note that the Japanese have names for the different cicadas according to the sounds they make. In my hometown's dialect (chavacano) we call them sirik sirik mainly because of the sound that they make.

      I mean Chris explained it a couple of times: He doesn't want to do subtitles in post, so he choses to speak as little Japanese in videos as possible. I can somewhat understand that. Abroad in Japan videos are already very well crafted and probably require quite a lot of time. Adding subtitles on top of that would increase the workload even more.

    Discovering Sharla & Chris a few months ago, watching most of their content it’s amazing how much they change and grow over time steppining into serious adulthood. Colab videos are great, cute Sharla becomes goofy and wild Chris tender. she makes him decent and he makes her happy. Sharla discovering UK & Chris Canada, that would be hilarious series. We wish both of you all the best in the future, take care of each other, like you do! :) bye from Croatia

    Aaah! Listening to Sharla speaking casual japanese to Natsuki is exactly the right level of japanese I need to hear to get better at the language right now. I'm sad that most of the channels I like to follow normally feature so little of it. And when people do speak japanese it's normally too fast and with too difficult words, but this was just the perfect level. I can just barely follow along in the conversation, and I'm picking up several new ways to use or modify words I already know, so this is perfect and I want more of this!
