Good morning, First, thank you for watching this video. I wanna express my thankfulness for the b-day wishes, but it was not my b-day haha. It was a message to a subscriber who was watching my videos on a special day. Hence “Happy birthday to somebody... in the world.” You guys are just so kind, thank you always. Thank you for all of your comments. I read through them all, try my best to comment back. Thank YOU.

Hey what is the private room on this Gran Class? Do you happen to know? Is it where the video tapes and cameras are stored???

I salute you and all the Japanese-based travel vloggers out there. Because of all of your posts, I'm getting to know much about Japan like a regular traveler without ever leaving home. Domo arigatou gozaimatsu!!!
That was the most luxurious seat I have seen anywhere, including in the first class section of a major airline. A frozen meal that heats with explosives - what a fascinating concept!

I enjoy your videos and especially enjoyed the reference to the "British Man." He got me started watching videos related to Japan, and now I'm pleased to watch yours as well.
I much appreciate your amusing and quirky sense of humor, which is more evident here than in some of your other videos. For a non-native speaker, you use English creatively.
Thank you so much for the high quality videos. Your channel is amazing. My dream is to visit Japan and I’ve been learning so much with your channel. And I’m knowing so much more about other parts of Japan. Keep up with the good work!!! Well done!!

I’ve watched a few of your video’s now. All of them very well filmed, superb captions for my 🇬🇧 brain and I enjoy your humour too! 🙂👍🏻 Thx for sharing these incredible journeys. We want to try every one of them so far. The ferries appeal to us too, along with the bullet trains of course. 🙏🏻 (New subscriber here)

wonderful to hear MrSpeedyNYC!
Fancy WATOR ! That's what you reserve a most luxurious seat on a train for ! For a moment I was afraid you will have to seat in the double seat row, but fortunately you have the single one. Also: didn't even have an idea there are such self-heating meals like this Bento you did show us ! So much Progress and Invention !
Thank you for the ride. I always love your hillarious captions. Very smart and funny. 👍🤓👍
We love your videos! My husband and I met in Misawa and lived there for several years. We miss it every day. Watching your videos makes us very nostalgic. They are so peaceful and calming. We wondered if you travel for work or just enjoy traveling? We're looking forward to more videos and especially like your ferry boat travel videos. My favorite are your onsen town videos. Onsen's are the thing I miss most about Japan. We hope to go back to Japan soon.

Man Japon is living way years ahead of us. The most fascinating thing to me wasn't the train but the lunch box he opened in the train. How it heats up the food after pulling the cable. Woah😮😮
heheheh "hello british man". Chris and Charlotte, with sometimes Natsuki and Ryotaro are my favs there. When the pandemic is over all of Japan youtubers should get together!
Great trip. Happy Birthday for the funniest trip reporter from Japan, Wish you all the best. And yes, that water taste like water and green tea taste like real tea.
