We were just in Sendai. Saw the statue from the castle and went there. Also went to the restaurant near our hotel which ONLY served tongue. Japan is amazing. We just ate, walked and ate.

Ryotaro is a great addition to your videos. He adds the fun. Your funny banter with him brings smile. Keep it up

My partner and I stayed on the coast part of Shichigahama. (near Shiogama) It was absolutely magical! We had to walk for an hour or so to the nearest supermarket for food and on occasion we would wander out to and find some local restaurants/cafes. There was an amazing fish market, that served ramen and all sorts. Everything was so fresh! Also the locals were so forgiving and lovely (despite my terrible Japanese.) Can't wait to go again one day..

Do not search on KZread, look at credible sources. See safecast.org for non-government crowdsourced radiation readings. Sendai area is lower than most of the US, and way lower than a place like Hong Kong. There is also radiation tests for food done by the co-ops and prefectural government. Matsushima is great and is worth the trip back. Stay overnight at enjoy sunrise over the bay.

omg I think I squealed a little when I saw Blaise. I love monkey majik and I saw them once in Canada, another time in Japan. Love them! Been to Sendai twice and loved it both times~ tbqh though, I didn't like Matsushima as much as I should. If you have a drone, then yes you can catch that aerial shot but I found Amanohashidate and Miyajima much, much more beautiful.

"Cost performance" and "beating the sea for twenty minutes" made me laugh so much and "bround breaking" was another laugh riot. I love Chris's sarcasm especially in this video where he mentioned about Ryokaro living in Sendai since three hundred years :D

I thought the best thing about this video would be discovering new things to do in Sendai but it turns out it was actually an amazing band. Thanks for giving Monkey Majik a shoutout here, I'm obsessed with their music now.
