That shot of you walking behind Kinsey and Mrs. Metal Jesus makes you look like a giant! 😂
I was thinking that too!🤣🤣🤣
I was thinking the same thing!!
He's part Wookie! Hahahaa!
I think Kinsey is hilarious. At some point she said, I dont care I want to be known some how even if its being with a guy who looks like he isnt allowed to be within 500ft of any school.
Inferior Delirium 😂😂😂😂💀
As someone who has lived in Japan for quite some time and has seen COUNTLESS videos with TERRIBLE information, I want to commend you on a job really well done. These tips are 100% correct and accurate. Thank you for providing your subscribers and fans with really good information.
I would agree with that. I mean, there are videos out there with interesting advice beyond this by residents for sure, but as a primer, this is quite good. Heading back in March for my fourth trip there, and it checked most of my Japan travel boxes, for sure.
Small correction: there are very few trash can because the 1995 Tokyo subway attack and the upcoming Tokyo Olympics . I see every day people eating and drinking everywhere ;)
Correct, its due to the AUM Shirinkyo sarin gas attacks, they hid the detonators to release the gas in garbage cans. I had to go as far as Kyoto JR station to find a garbage can and it was covered in warnings about police and security monitoring it.
@James 1137 They still have rubbish bins in fast food restaurants, cafes and bottle recycling by vending machines, just not public trash cans on the sidewalk.
Japan is on my bucket list. Thanks for doing this video, Jason and Kinsey!
great complement to your other Japan trip videos! Definitely planning on going someday so will have to keep these tips in mind!
Great video Jason! Would appreciate more of these very much!
Very informative! Thanks Jason and Kinsey.
I love you guys!!

Once again an awesome video from such awesome people. Some helpful tips in there. Thanks.
Thank you! Very helpful. We are wanting to go sometime next year and these tips are very helpful
I want to go to Japan one of these days and this video was extremely helpful.
Thanks guys
Great video guys. Japan looks absolutely beautiful and I would love to go there at some point.
I went to Japan last year, it was the best three weeks of my life! I can't wait to go back.
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video, Kinsey and Metal Jesus. I recently returned from my first trip to Japan and definitely plan on going back. Learned a lot I didn't know from your video. Great work!
I have always wanted to go to japan, this video series has really made it a goal for me now. Thanks for the inspiration. I really didn't think we were gonna get another japan video. Awesome tips and tricks guys thanks again. Love the MJ crew you guys rock.
Excellent tips, very nice of you guys to do this.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing. Its been a bucket list dream to someday take a trip.
The most important Japan game hunting tip is to go to Nakano Broadway and Akihabara at the end of your trip. First, try to find the stuff you want at other stores (Hard Off/Book Off) outside of those tourists traps. If you don't find what you're looking for, they'll always be waiting for you at either of those spots, for the higher prices.
Thanks so much for this video! I have been beating around the bush about going to Japan and after seeing you @ E3 I am convinced. Japan here I come. Thank you for everything you do for us sensei!
Thumbs up and good timing. Me and my friends few days ago were just talking about planning to go sometime next summer. This helped a lot.
Thank you MetalJesus and Kinsey for such an informative video. I'm super intrested in going to Japan and this video was soo helpful with advice I didn't even think about! Awesome video, makes me excited to go to Japan!
The reason you don't find many public garbage cans is because people tend to use them to dump their home garbage. A trick I would suggest (not really a trick, but it works) is to always ask the hotel receptionist for a card (meishi). Hand it to the taxi driver and he'll get you back to the hotel after a long day without a whole lot of unnecessary linguistic confusion.
Thank you for this Video! It's fantastic and offers many useful tips for upcoming trips :3
Thank you sharing this info. Know it will help many people out.
I thank you MJR for your videos, I lost my Dad last week and I've been pretty depressed. They've help keep my mind on other things.
May your dad rest in peace. Also I prayers go to you and family as well.❤
Will likely be going this summer. Thanks for the tips!
I was JUST thinking about how I wished you guys would do a video like this. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the tips guys. I can't wait for my fall trip there. It'll be my second time, solo this time, and I can't wait.
You guys are so fun to watch, and Kinzie, your smile is contagious, I love it :)
Amazing video, very informative!! Thanks a lot guys, you're the best!!
Another excellent video. thanks!
Mailing things you buy is a very good tip. Thanks for letting me know
Please make more of these vids! It's super helpful!!
Japan is definitely a desired destination for for me. Thank you so much Metal Jesus for what you do and inspiring me to create my own retro gaming channel. I've been watching you since year one.
Wow this info is super useful, thanks!
I lived in Japan for almost 11 years. I don't know why I'm still watching this lol.
You better be at the Seattle retro game expo tomorrow!
Sadly I will not. I’m going to a wedding...
@@MetalJesusRocks Oof
These Japan videos are just so good. Thank you.
Awesome video. Regarding the JR pass - a lot of people forget flights within Japan. Flying from Osaka or Hiroshima back to Tokyo or even going there is often cheaper than the bullet train (like many flights are just ~40$)
Suica cars are nice but if you are hopping around a lot a Metro card is even better. It's 1500yen (price only available to foreigners) and unlimited rides for 3 days. Single rides in Tokyo are 100-400yen and depending on the train line you are charged again. So 1500yen flatrate can be a LOT cheaper if you go around a lot in Tokyo.

Was hoping for a video like this! Thanks!
nice vid! thinking of going in October so this video came out just in time. Thanks Jason and Kinsey !
Thanks for the video! I leave tomorrow! Can’t wait to get over there!
very nice vid guys!! so many great ideas !!!!!
Tips and Tricks. I loved that magazine growing up
Awesome Video , Thank You
Man, that was truly mindblowing! I found the video really helpful especially since I am actually planning on going to Japan once I get the chance :)
This video was very helpful and informative!
Quick thing not all airlines will let you take a larger battery pack. I often got crap for. 12000mah pack in Thailand and Korea
@John Davis there is usually a limit. I think it was 100 Wh. Especially Asian countries are really strickt with those limits becaus of cheap defective batteries. You have to make sure that the factory lable about the mAh and Wh on the battery is still readable or else you might get problems at the security check
This is very informative thanks!
The WiFi brick was immensely helpful on our trip. And substantially faster than our internet.
Do you know if they allow vpn through these devices?
@@OGSkumse
I'll ask the mate I went with he was the one who coordinated it
All the Air BnB places I stayed at had those things, so you don't necessarily have to get one at the airport.
Apologies for late response he hasn't gotten back to me about I forgot and he forgot :)
yes it is an essential
Thanks for the vids like this one it makes a trip to Japan seem less daunting.
I went from Minneapolis to Tokyo for $575 two years ago. It was crazy.
Thank you for the super tips! Most of them are applicable to many other countries as well.
Great advice! We will be back this november to Japan. Cant wait!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The Japan videos have been awesome! I hope to visit there one day. Thanks for sharing
That is great tip "plan going back". I hope to see video where you go back!
I am now. Thanks to you guys for a walk through for someone who rarely gets out, yet alone out of the country which I've never done yet
I've been watching Japanese travel vlogs for years now and sounds like Kinsey has too, as she definitely hit all the recommendations I've seen
Looks like you have a lot more awesome footage of Japan. I hope you make more videos of your trip.
I had around 2,000 video clips from the trip. Crazy right?!
Thanks! Was thinking of preparing an inter rail on Europe. Saw this video and was helpful!
such a wonderful informative travel video thank you very much.
The Japan series has been so good
Thanks for the tips. I really appreciate it
I live in Japan and can confirm these are nice tips for first time travelers. I recently made a video of our Tokyo game hunting session and my best advice is plan ahead each day. You can’t get lost when you have internet access but it’s easy to get side tracked! You’ll be in one game store for what feels like 15 minutes but then turns out to be 3 hours lol. Remember, Japanese stores open late and close early.
Thank you for the video, I will be visiting Japan this September
Thank you this was very helpful.
That was great, it's amazing how easy game shopping is there. Some stores show me a letter saying that I agree to not return a game that isn't in english. Spot on with your tips.
I've been 3 times and some of these tips I only found out about the last trip. Great advice!
As someone who's been to Japan a couple times these are great tips. Well done.
Thanks for this going to Japan next month really helpful
Very helpful video. Definitely going to go to Japan in the future.
Thanks ill be heading there in August can''t wait late 40th B-day present too myself.
Thank you for the tip on finding affordable flights. I just went from being completely hopeless about ever making it to japan (because round-trip flights from here are typically $2000) to totally excited about making it there because I was able to find flights for around $950. So thank you very much, that was the bit of traveling information that I needed to get me there
Awesome video! I would love to go to Japan someday.
All great tips! Google Maps and a portable wifi device has been my go-to essentials whenever I visit Japan.
Ty very much for the videos, love it!! 😍🤩
Kudos to MJR! He managed to find one of the 5 Xbox 360 known to exist in Japan:)
thank you for this! i have wanted to go to japan for a long time and seeing these types of videos are interesting and helpful... i just hope i can actually go one of these days 😅
I travel to Japan quite often these are good tips. I have one more. If you're in Aki or Nakano don't buy in the first store, take a picture of the item you want to buy with the price and then check other store. Chances are you will find it cheaper.
wow very nice i cant wait to go
Some top tips would like to see more of your trip ☺ ♥ 🇯🇵
Great advice! From some one who lives in japan it gets my approval spot on👍🎮
Those guys must be so much fun to hang out with.
Awesome thanks I love your channel
Love your channel guys , love metal too ! Japan I've always wanted to go visit Japan for Gaming and the culture , "I hope my channel " takes off , you guys rock
Going to Japan in August. I’m very excited to go.
Great video MJR
I have a tip for international travel (I've only been to Japan specifically once as part of a unintended lay over when coming back from the Philippines while on a business trip). If you can, much like the 2 free carry on bags, if you think you'll be coming back with more than what you left with, just pack a suitcase into your suitcase. Some sets (if you don't have one) have a large and a small that both can be carried onto flights or may get checked plane side for free as well if the flight is full.
On the rail pass, when you calculate your trips, be sure it falls within the day limit length of your pass too to determine if it's worth it. Passes come in different time lengths.
Thanks for the tips guys 💯
Thank you so much for making this video. Very helpful for us nerds who are sick of the overpriced eBay prices. Just get it yourself!
A few other tips for overseas travel, try to go right before rainy season if your budget is tight. You might be rolling the dice on weather, but the costs are way down. Also, if you do bring have a flight that allows two checked bags, pack your stuff in one suitcase, then put that suitcase in a slightly bigger one. It is easy to roll the bigger one around, and you can fill the bigger one with all of your souvenirs when it is time to head home. If you think two suitcases is a bit much, you can get very big dufflebags that fold down to a very small size. Just throw that in your carry on. On the way home, put your clothes and such in the dufflebag and keep the suitcase for games and other breakables.
Great video!! I hope some day i could go to japan!!
Good Video. Thank you.
cool video tech talk metal jesus rocks
Thanx for the video :)
