I would not ski, but I loved the manga room and Kai's reaction to it. The food looked so good it made me hungry lol. I would like that area just from the beauty and people there. It seems so fun even if you don't ski. Thanks for sharing! Loved how you two are good friends, and welcome Kai! Love your name and you seem so fun to hang out with! You genuinely got me to laugh.
I went there two years ago (2023 winter) and really liked it. The powder was incredible - and that is coming from someone who has zero ability to ski power XD I based myself in Morioka, taking the train to Tazawako station and then the bus to the resort. It was my first time learning the word "Ski Jo" XD I didn't get to go to Ani resort. Looking at the map, Ani has a very weird layout. It basically has one very long run down the mountain and another short run at the top and that's it XD
😁 right after the take where Kai says he wont hit the slope after his beer it cuts to where he's snowbording 😁 P.S.: I think this is probably the video where Sarah looks the most German/Austrian 😉
Loving the view of Tazawako lake! Looks so beautiful, I would also check out the sake breweries since that what Akita is best known for. Thank you for sharing this with us TC!
美人 (Bi-Jin) literally means Beautiful Person. But, as you guys already know, this word does never apply to men. So, 美人 means Beautiful Woman or Women. So, what is the difference between 美人 and 美女 (Bi-Jyo), which literally means Beautiful Woman or Beautiful Women? I think 美女 includes some nuances of sexual beauty, sexy or foxy, which 美人 doesn’t have. Instead 美人 includes some nuances of grace in it. However, please note that their differences in nuances are not so big.
Fantastic camera work which really showed the beauty of the location. Hidden gem for skiers. Would love to spend a few days there! Already shared link with friends. ⛷ Great combination: Kai and Sarah. As @Sock-Puppet said, "Sarah's high energy combined with Kai's chill energy was simply amazing"!
Sarah's high energy combined with Kai's chill energy was simply amazing, need more trips with them! Now, if only I knew how to ski, snowboard, or had any access to snow here in Africa.
I have to get to sleep but I must comment on the first few minutes of the video NOW! 1) Kai gesticulating at the car tire was hilarious 2) had to pause at regular Vs goofy and couldn't believe that's actually what it said 😂. And now I'm surprised that I'm left-handed and left-footed but my instinct for standing on a board is actually regular? I mean, I've never actually done it but still 😅
These Prices all seem pretty reasonable compared to my skiing trip to Austria last month. I guess there were not that many lifts around, you could have used with that ski pass like for example in Sölden, right? Would have been interesting to see the slopes on a map and the different difficulties. That view of the lake was stunning for sure, I'd live to make such an experience. Sadly, the flights are the expensive stuff and getting your Skiing Equipment over to Japan fills up the bags very well too, even without the Skis themselves.
Skiing in Japan is wayyy more affordable, especially compared to Australia which is soo pricey! They were a few ski lifts are this particular resort (Tazawako). Might be cheaper to hire rental ski gear than to bring yours over, or just your own bring boots instead of skis/poles etc.
Hey, I was there during the summer and didn’t notice that there was a ski resort nearby! However, I stayed at the same hotel as you guys! Brought back great memories for me. Great food and Onsen at the hotel. Your video makes me want to go back but during the winter!
PS, a couple of train stations towards Akita, there is an Airbnb, that was advertised as being an old samurai house and also had a pair of Akita dogs. The owner took me and the dogs out for a walk, although I didn’t need to pee! 😅
The last time I was in Japan in Winter was 2016. Every other time has been Autumn or Spring. I've never been snowboarding (been a skateboarder my whole life) and always wanted to for the first time in Japan. As much as I love Hokkaido, I've always wanted to go somewhere with less crowds and more chill. I did think about Niigata or Akita, and honestly this has sealed the deal. Those slopes look amazing. Plus that Sushi platter would be devoured by me. I think I'm going to pencil Akita in for Winter 2025!
Kai must be really shy, he's so chill that it almost doesn't match the TC vibe I'm used to but change is nice. Sarah is good at bringing the excitement as always though lol
I've only been snowboarding near Lake Biwa. I forget the name of the mountain. This trip looked awesome! I hope I get a chance to visit Akita someday. Welcome to TC, Kai! Love the chill vibe. I've always thought Sarah's vibe is pretty chill, too. You guys presented well together.
Awesome looks fun. I was a salaryman in Osaka in early 90s. We went on the company ski trip to the company Lodge in Nagano. Bus right from work on Friday evening and on the slopes Sat morning. Don't run over the same Japanese girl twice in 5 min cuz you are a Floridian who doesn't know how to ski 😮😊. She won't be happy
Kai is from Hawai’i? Edit: 9:03 People in the Continental United States bring beer to the resorts. Some of them take it up the mountain and keep in the snow to stay cold.
Que frio! Creo que cuando visite Japón quiero ir en primavera, quiero hacer hanami. Mientras tanto me conformo con grabar lugares asiáticos en USA jejeje
Do you guys have plan to ski in Japan? What did you think about Akita? Let us know ❄️⛄️
Yes! During my next Japan trip I plan on going to the Northern part of the main island & I will include a ski getaway there as well
very very nice place.but is very far where i live ca 4934 miles if i win the lottery i jump on plane immediately
and Sarah you are gorgeous and kai is a handsome guy

I should try some of that Sake myself 😁 @@nekolover-iq4ug
Haha Kai is SO CHILL, but when you get it he's a brilliant addition to the team - more pls
you just made my whole week haha
can attest, he's great!
Yes, more Kai, please!
@@Kojimochi bless you, man!
@@seerasankeep going from strength to strength, it's great to see!
Right when I think you can't make a better video than your previous one, Sarah, you do. Excellent !
Had so much fun on this Akita ski trip!!! Believe me, you guys NEED to go ski in Japan!!! ❄
What would you do here if you've never been skiing or snowboarding before?
Maybe I can convince my parents not to go to Austria anymore for skiing. Win-win situation as I see it. I can go to Japan, and they can go skiing... 😄
Sounds like a no-brainer 😁
You have some good intel for that. Hoping you can. Enjoy!
Seeing all of this just makes me want to go back!! Akita Pt.2 anyone?

Kai snowboards like a surfer lol Wish we could of seen more of you guys enjoying the slopes! Aloha from Big Island !

Embracing my European roots 🇩🇪❄

Beautiful Landscape & Powder Snow & Beer & Curry & Ramen & Onsen (hot spring)☺☺

Great combination: Kai and Sarah. As @Sock-Puppet said, "Sarah's high energy combined with Kai's chill energy was simply amazing"!
Sarah got to ski! I felt she missed out on the last winter trip.
Kai is cool too! Hope we see more of him
日本語で失礼します💦
最近はニセコに行く外国人が多い中、リーズナブルに秋田でスキーを楽しむ人を見てホッとしました。😊
I think we definitely found TWO beautiful people! 😱 Great video guys, thanks as always for the amazing content!
you both look perfect together, ngl
Wow, i've never thought of skiing in Japan! This looks amazing. Greetings from Las Vegas! New supporter # 249K+🔔🔔👍
I hope to be new YT buddies. thanks
Skiing here is incredible!!
I loved all the information and the great scenes. Only question I have is about Tattoo permissions at the onsen. Yes or no?
Majority No!
You might find rare ones where they are allowed.
If you don’t have many then cover them with big skin coloured stickers.
Wow 😮, what an amazing place to visit 🏂🌨️🏔️ 😍. Everything looked amazing 😍
Sarah, my wife (who is Japanese) says you are a Curryholic. Is this true?? 😄🤓
By the way, neither of us are skiers, but this episode was AWESOME!!
Sarah made a good choice. “Ogasaka“ ski, made in Japan!!
Sarah's high energy combined with Kai's chill energy was simply amazing, need more trips with them! Now, if only I knew how to ski, snowboard, or had any access to snow here in Africa.
omg what an awesome video, makes me want to book my ticket!! 😭😭 Sarah/Kai work so well off each other!
こんにちは
いつも楽しく動画拝見させて頂いてます。
私は英語はよく分かりませんが、不思議な事にこのチャンネルを拝見する度に自分が旅行している様なとても楽しい気持ちになります。山形と秋田とても美しいですね、空気感が伝わって来ますね、ありがとう御座います。😊
これからも応援していますよ。
見てくれてありがとうございます😊
Lake looks like painting on the canvass. Really nice manga room! Akita-Havaiji-bijun Sarah probably has mind reading capabilities!
I have to get to sleep but I must comment on the first few minutes of the video NOW! 1) Kai gesticulating at the car tire was hilarious 2) had to pause at regular Vs goofy and couldn't believe that's actually what it said 😂.

Looks so fun!! I'd love to see those snow monsters one day!
Awesome video 😁
I always wanted to visit Akita. Up until last year i lived in Hokkaido and i kept saying before i move to kansai, I'll visit.. 😅
that red yukata? really fits your beauty sarah ❤

若さを楽しむって良い事♩
今のうちだけの特権♩
羨ましいよ♩
Let fun for you`r *@〜 ♩
Enjoyed the Kai and Sarah duo, more please!
Love the video but the audio on the voicover feels tinny and harsh compared to your other videos
24:48 Ok that was good. You guys were dope. Fun video

I would really appreciate it if you'd show what vegans can eat at the places you go😊 some shots of plantbased food please 🙏 ❤
That can be hard in towns and places outside Tokyo and the big cities.
@@blade1535 I know, that's why it would be interesting 😁
😂
Sooo want to experience the this!!!
日本人が見ても参考になります!
Anman must be the best choice after snowboarding!!!! 渋いチョイス!✨
I really like your normal snow boots you were wearing like in the room review part, Sarah! I would love to know what brand and style they are 🥲
Hey! They're Sorel Snow Boots. It's a Canadian brand, so I knew they were gonna be great & keep me warm on all snow trips! (Best investment!!) 🇨🇦❄
@@seerasan thank you so much for the reply!!! 😊 thank you for all the great content!! 💜
Is emma no longer with Tokyo Creative?
Great location! And great video, too.
Seerasan on the mountain, make sure you don't fall in
😊
How come no one is in the hotel?
Excellent video Sarah

Kai is from Hawai’i?
Edit: 9:03
People in the Continental United States bring beer to the resorts. Some of them take it up the mountain and keep in the snow to stay cold.
"RRRRRR" sounds perfect for mountain top snow monsters 😆
Recording date?
Que frio! Creo que cuando visite Japón quiero ir en primavera, quiero hacer hanami. Mientras tanto me conformo con grabar lugares asiáticos en USA jejeje
1:02 That is incorrect. It depends on the nationality.
That yaki cheese curry though 🤤
why does kai speak like he has no emotion 😂 nice vid though
I felt like I was watching a student movie.
Going to play devils advocate but sorry Kai, you’re too boring onscreen, your energy is out of sync with Sarah.
I think they balance each other out perfectly :)
