James looks so out of place in Tokyo, it’s like a anime protagonist in a crowd of random civilians

Living in Tokyo has teached me a lot in many ways. Train geeks are a daily basis, and you can see them everyday taking pictures of the train you just leave at the station. But you know the difference here than other countries? Nobody is going to point at them at laught. Nobody is going to see them as some weirdos. Everybody respects them as they may respect your own hobbies. That's why Japan allows for lots of different of passions, cultures and hobbies surroundings weird and nitche stuff. That's why I love this country so much.

Never seen this show before, but I love the clips so far.

I really like the guide, so agreeable.

I’ve just finished it and I loved the tour guide throughout 😂😂

This was a great series!

I love the show, honto! Pls make more episodes!!! Love you, Bim ;)

Japan is probably the coolest nation in the world and with China zillions of years behind. I envy Mr May adventures in Japan from a positive perspective. As a tour guide myself in my country, Japanese tourists are the best in the world. Have fun James!

Can't believe James May missed the correct meaning of 'otaku'. It literally means a homebody as in one who spends the majority of their time at home which then was stretched out to mean nerdy homebody who geeks out at home.

@RhysClark97

3 жыл бұрын

like all words in most languages, their meanings can change at any time. In japan, Otaku used to be derogatory term for people who spent alot of time at home doing unsocial things but now its embraced alot more as people who are hyper enthusiastic about niche or specific things, nerdy about them

James May finally found his natural habitat

I'd love to visit Japan, it's just so fascinating! That train cafe looks fantastic, although I'd probably confuse the patrons, by visiting with my girlfriend! Then, my goal would be to wind her up, by constantly dropping bad train-themed puns, like asking for _steamed_ milk, saying how I was _chuffed_ and that I _railly_ like it.

Me: AMAZING! Him: No.

Oh man at first I thought that was Risottoro!

I like trains

Give James a pair of thick classes and he'll be a spitting image of Brian Badonde from Facejacker

A beat boxing train spotter. There's got to be a lady out there who's into that. Just keep looking.

Just by happenstance I visited that Train cafe just because it was the closest place to have a drink. It was very pleasant even though I'm not into trains.
