Thank you for using the highest film quality for your tour of Tokyo. The colors are brilliant and amazing. I am enjoying this adventure through your camera.

Wonderful !! Thank you!

You know what makes this nightlife so much more attractive than the ugly facade of Las Vegas? The lighting is 'muted' in a sense - the mix of incandescent + LED has a very nostalgic yet modern aesthetic. Nothing is overdone - nothing is outlandishly gigantic. Everything is sized for humans by humans. It's small yet large. Very well done getting video of this!

Honestly Shibuya is kind of shitty. Granted not as shitty as vagus. But like any big city its who you know and where you go. I lived there for over 15 years and still keep a house around 10 minutes away from that intersection. But you cant wake up at sun rise and go for a surf. Every place has its pros and cons.

My home town isn’t ugly. We are just a different vibe. Tokyo is extremely strict in its laws. Japan is a different world in general. Japan in itself has a social class, and an honor system is the reason why the country is this way. As someone who teaches Japanese martial arts there are pros and cons to the Japanese culture. I teach it for a living. Because of it shaming and strict norms this caters other issues it the country that effect how people interact with the city. Japanese people are extremely polite, and disciplined. But they are also one sided meaning one little mistake or judgement you can be banned, barred or dishonored by your family, or treated very poorly socially if they find you lesser than them. Also, cops are more likely to arrest you based on suspicion especially if you’re just a foreigner and they can question you for literally anything just for walking around. And if you say the wrong thing it can be considered against the law as well. Again, not saying it’s bad. Both pros and cons. Vegas my home town sure we have crazy tourist, but it’s my home. ❤

I lived in Tokyo 25 years ago, and honestly, it doesn't look all that different, besides the smartphones and the ridiculous amount of gaijin that now seem to be there (I know this is Shibuya, but in 1999 there really weren't many foreigners around).

Great high-resolution footage. Thank you.

This reminds me so much of the game Judgement on the Playstation. Love that game.

Love how the sidewalks are not covered in old chewing gum.

A friend of mine traveled to Japan and hooked up with a few gals ... Mind you he's tall half Japanese , good looking and can speak a little of the language ... Straight to the point , he had to. be treated for HPV and Gonorrhea

Try Shibuya on a Friday night, this looks fairly calm compared to the few times I've gone to Shibuya on a Friday.

Anyone notice how there's way less people wearing face mask compared to last year? I remember watching a video interviewing Japanese people and most said they would continue to wear a mask

and everyone looks healthy

its just like my Yazuka games
