Maaan. Mike can eat like an anime character. Like Goku or Kirby. This guy had tonkatsu 3 ways and pork belly then proceeded to have 2 large bowls of ramen in the same night. But right when you thought it was over. SIKE. He gets a cheesecake crepe. Holy crap.

The food always looks so amazing and you always explain about the food you are ordering. Thank you for that and also for going to a lot of different food places that most of us will never get to try.

I took your advice from various videos. You honestly made our trip in Tokyo. There is no way we would've found some of this stuff. Thanks so much

The way he describes the food is beautiful and mouth watering 😔

So excited for the Japan series to start! Thanks for the content Mikey (and team)

afuri is one of my fav ramen places in tokyo. it's especially heartwarming during the winters. afuris is always my first stop after i arrive into the city.

I love the way you describe the the food, so much passion in it

I've never had genuine tonkatsu, but I made it a few time and it is absolutely amazing.

I subscribed during the first Japan series. So happy to see part 2!!

The F-R-E-I-N-D-S reference is hysterical! Everything looks delicious!

Everything looked delicious, but the ramen was something else 😋✌

Your videos are the best all your vlogs helped me in my tour tysm n keep up the good work ❤️🌸

Tonkatsu is like one of my favorite foods. That restaurant looks soooooo amazing.

The Japanese videos of yours are always so interesting. Definitely a must for me.

I don't regret watching your videos for hours every day! I am trying to eat different variety of food and appreciate them. More power to you Mike (and your stomach) 😂😍

Mikey, you are such a great company. I hope you read this. You've gotten me through some rough times, accompanied me in a few others, and also made me really get into different foods and cultures. A huge thank you and hug to you. 🙏

I’ve been waiting for this series to come back out😍😍

This makes me love Japan even more.....

i love when mikey goes to japan LOL he always has a blast and it's so fun watching him eat all that delicious food! can't wait to go in december ... and his videos have basically been our food guide! thanks, mikey!

I know if I were in his shoes, the katsodon restaurant would have put me out for the rest of the night. But the fact that he then went for ramen AND crepe shows that he has superhuman eating powers, haha!

I luv ur vids

Love the directions on how to eat it!! Delicious!! DELICIOUS!! I'm hungry now!!♡♡♡ Those little sandwiches!! YUM YUM!!!

I think the only problem is that Yuka doesn't speak a lick of English, so it would be hard for them to communicate and work something out together. I saw Yuka make a guest appearance on a Canadian-based KZreadr channel, and she could barely speak a word to them. It was kind of awkward when they asked her questions and she just kind of nodded, as she had no clue what they were saying, haha!

I grew up in Japan, and my mom would always make tonkatsu. It was one of my favorites. I probably haven't had it in 30 years, because when I go to a Japanese restaurant, it's either shabu shabu or sushi. Thanks for the memories. Maybe it's time to return to my homeland.
