The gatchapon put a smile on your and our face so it was a win for 100¥ 😊

Fantastic! Amazing! Love traveling with you! 😁

😂😂😂This video realty got me cracking up 🤣 Yooo, I really felt your disappointment with the chicken sandwich price increase. I dont blame you, tho. I feel some type of way as well with inflation. Thanks for showing your experience with Kura. I learned recently two Kura locations are opening near me within the next year or so. Makes me look forward to my own adventure. Thanks for the hard work. You're killing it!😊 Keep walking, Rion.🎉

I was just there 2 weeks ago. Week day morning was ok. Evening was very crowded and the weekend was just crazy. This is my 4th time in Osaka, love it every time!

Omg the cut between the sparkling water drink and then just going to the vendo instead got me LAUGHING!!! 🤣

Good video Rion be safe in the heat..

大阪動画ありがとうございました！でんでんタウンですが、電気街のイメージないです😭色々クセ強めな感じが しました😂もう一度行って確かめたいです👍50円のジュース🥤すごく魅力的なのに何故か買うの勇気いります😂そしてイチゴ🍓ジュース取れなくて、その後の映像が完全に自暴自棄で最高のドラマでした👍日本のガチャポン文化って凄いなぁと思いました。そしてマックへの🍔恨み節が相当納得できてないんだなとわかりました😂同感です👍くら寿司🍣めっちゃ和風でファンシーでしたね👍なんだろ、安心して見てられました😂結局、Rionさん梅大好きなんだなと思いました🤣梅ッシュ美味しそうでした🍺そしてびっくらポンへのガチ度、、子供以上でウケました🤣今回の動画で一番好きなフレーズはくら寿司会計時の『うぅー高っっ💦』でした😂ありがとうございました！

Omg finally someone gives kura some love. I have a kura about 1.5hrs from me and I go from time to time. But I'll see Japan in November I can't wait. It's been 6 yrs for me now.

1.5 hrs, you will definitely love Japan more cause Kura is everywhere here. 6 yrs, there will be so many changes, enjoy!!

Thankyou for all the videos recently. I watch all your videos with my mum and sometimes my family

Amazing as always!

I had a delightful walk with you on the streets of Osaka. Exploring something new to see and eat (yummy big takoyaki and Kura sushi) was a fun experience! Namba park was so beautiful at night! 😊 Gachapon master Rion was surprised to see what you got!🤣

Love that you are posting more edited videos!!!

Your takoyaki looked oishi and the Kura sushi hand rolls looked meccha oishi! Thank you for taking your gaooomunity with you on this relaxing walk around Osaka! Have a blessed Sunday, Rion.

Thanks dear Rion for enable us revisiting those famous and already familiar places in Osaka. Dotombori is obviously a must see place for tourists so it is as usually totally crowded but other parts not that much. What a chance to meet again a group of your viewers from Nara in your hometown. They must have been thrilled while bumping into you again. The night atmosphere of Namba Park is really so nice and peaceful. It was a fun to watch how you have enjoyed eating your sushi dinner although I am not eating fish at all. I also liked the totally Japanese style of the restaurant. Well done, as always. Take care while filming under such hot weather conditions. GAAOOO!

Thanks for your vlog.Very informative. I like Namba Parks. Not there yet when we were there. Forwarded your video to my son and his family who are revisiting Osaka for the 3rd time.😊

🎉CONGRATULATIONS on making many edited videos ! We have been watching you for a few years now . Your hard work is paying off ! Take care - from Florida USA !

Arigatougozaimasu, Rion, for brightening my weekend with your walk through Osaka. So many great photo spots. Love the iconic giant crab on Dotonbori food street. Your dinner at Kura looked mechha oishi. Also, I always enjoy watching you try the Claw machine. And, you are definitely a winner with the 100 yen cable.👍

Morning Rion love your videos ❤❤❤

I think you are right, Rion-san. I was there in May with other foreigner friends and Umeda/Dontonbori/Tennoji was very lively. Fast forward to earlier this month, I went to Osaka again with family and noticed a big drop in visitors except maybe Osaka castle.

ส วัสดีตอนเช้า คุณRion Ishida จอบคุณที่นำเที่ยว Osaka ได้น่าเที่ยวมาก ผมคิดว่าคุณเป็นคนที่มีเสน่ห์ในการรีวิว ทั้งอาหารและสถานที่น่าชมด้วยความน่าสนใจ อยากให้คุณมาประเทศไทยเพื่อรีวิวประเทศของเราและเมืองหลวงในสไตล์ของคุณคงน่าสนใจ และผู้ติดตามคุณจะได้เพลิดเพลินสุนทรียวาจาน่ารักน่าฟังคงมีอรรถรสแปลกตาแปลกใจ มานะประเทศไทยยินดีต้อนรับคุณตลอดเวลา อย่าลืมนะเรารอคุณอยู่เสมอ

Do you prefer Kurt Sushi or Sushiro? I am surprised that the beer is delivered via the conveyor belt. Haha I guess it's the spirit of Osaka, breaking the traditions? But if you will have to recommend a special place in Osaka besides Dotonbori or Shinsekai, where will that be? Probably Osaka Expo mascot will be future if it's the Rion's Lion?

Thanks for another wonderful video! I think a lot of travelers are avoiding Japan's heat, lol. Maybe you can create a community poll to ask your viewers when, or what season, they plan to visit Japan? If you think it'll be helpful for you of course. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for sharing your daily vlogs Rion

Hi Rion. I was planning this walk last night! Thank you so much for your enthusiastic videos! My first time in Japan next February. Osaka Kyoto, Hiroshima and Tokyo,as a start. Time to watch another of your videos! Michael.

Hi beautiful Ishida I’m now in Osaka too with my kid.🤩

Loving it❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Rion, thank you for your video! We're going to Japan in October and really excited about visiting all the little shopping and Gachapon places. As someone who also gets overwhelmed with noise, I appreciate you telling us about the quiet spots at the end of Namba Station. And thank you for showing us that new gachapon place! I really hope the Hello Kitty gachapon as a ghost is still there in October. 🦁🐯

Love Osaka! If you’ve never been outside your country before, I definitely recommend Japan! Had so many amazing memories in Osaka!

Lovin it!! 🎉

We were here! 😊Hello from Romania!

Great video! Those sushi rolls looks great!! I like when you show the little map on the screen so we know where you are !! We will be in the Spring 2024...before the summer heat starts up!!

Oh Rion, that takoyaki like food looks delicious! Bonito flakes are hefty!

😊 Love your videos!!! They are super relaxing. Watching from New Zealand really excited to plan a trip to Japan sometime soon

We stayed in Shinsekai in June for 5 days. Really enjoyed the area, went to Dotonburi one evening, didn’t stay long it was so busy lol! We had a lot more luck at the games in Shinsekai as well compared to Tokyo!

Nice video! Excited for my trip to Osaka and Kyoto which is coming up soon.

Can’t wait to visit in cooler January!

Yeah it so hot right now, I'm looking forward to visit Osaka in October!

Osaka looks like so much fun. I would love to visit to walk around to view the sights and try some of the delicious food like the big takoyaki! Namba Park seems worth venturing. Very entertaining video! Great job Rion!

It was packed with people at night time when we were there 2 weeks ago

Im making my itinerary based on your guides 😊 Plan to visit Japan on Fall 😊

Gaoooooo great. Video have a great week kanpai 🍻 🤘☮️💟🍀😜🤟🦋

I will be there in about autumn 🍂,thanks for showing me the Main Street

Rion you might be interested to know we have a few Kura sushi locations in the US and the cheapest item is $3.50 per plate or 500 Yen!

It’s so nice to see Shin-Imamiya lively again. I’m hoping for the come back of the iconic blow fish mascot/lantern there 🙏 and I really drooled to the sushi-s you ate at Kura 😋 Thank you for your updates, Rion! Can’t wait to go back to Japan 😊 Take care and God bless! PS: 17:19 Hello Ninomiya!!! ❤and 20:41 Hello Kanjani 8 ❤ Sorry but my JE Fangirl heart is very happy right now 😆

Personally, I enjoy Shinsekai more than Dontoburi. Had such a good time hopping from small restaurant to small restaurant (and maybe too much sake). My favourite hang out is “silverball planet” in America-Mura. Played so much pinball, I hurt my lower back. Maybe I should have had more sake. I love when you tour around Osaka. You give the local touch.

I love your videos. I already miss Osaka. We been there last July 1-7.

I’m here in Japan and just left Osaka to Tokyo. This video was not what I have seen. Lots of tourists in Osaka and very crowded and more excited than this video.

At 8:04 I briefly thought that was a Spirit Halloween store.

I'll be going to Osaka later this year and I'll do my best to support the local businesses.

Heading there soon, although I have been there twice.

Two words. Yakuniku Kinga. Please show the world!

Can’t wait to be back in Osaka/Japan and check off more bucket list items like dining at Kura 🍣 Tbh, I was intimidated by the July/Aug heat, which is one reason why I visited in June, but Tsuyu meant wet everywhere & cloudy skies. 😅 I’ve been lovin’ the beautiful blue skies & puffy clouds in your videos while I watch comfortably with AC. 😆😎

I went to Dotonbori but it's a shame I didn't get to go to Shinsekai. I spent a whole day at Universal studios.

I was there last October and it wasn’t packed since the country had just reopened. I’m going back to Osaka (plus Hiroshima and Fukuoka later this year), hopefully it isn’t super packed with tourists.

Your mc donalds disappointment made me chuckle, I had a similar reaction to prices in the UK. Thank you for putting a smile on my face this weekend, take care my friend.

I miss Kura Sushi! Even the cheap sushi is better than any sushi we can get here in Toronto Canada 😭

I was there 2 week ago and the hotel right at the Dotonbori. In the morning, only few tourists around. I think they are still sleeping. But in the afternoons and at nights, this place is packed of people.

Love your videos! Could you also do your own review of restaurants in Kyoto Tower basement? Will definitely visit Kura when we go next month!

Rion san, so hot to travel Japan during July😭

Missed you again.

Thankyou! I will be visiting in early December and love this information! Is the icoca card still availible? I heard certain passes like suica stopped being availible.

Visited Osaka Kyoto in February. Am planning Tokyo in November but airfares and hotel rates are too high.

We are coming to Osaka in October:)

Love your videos, The little alleys the spots tucked away that only you or a local can find would be very interesting. Maybe go to those spots, instead of the spots all the ither you tubers have already been.

I am going to enjoy Osaka more again because of the fewer tourists.

I watch your video for reference as one of our hotels will be at Namba station. Also I plan to do day trips to Mount Yoshino and Mount Koya (Koyasan). Think you walked by Matsusakagyu Yakiniku M restuarant where I plan to make a reservation. 15:27

I can never win at those crane machines, but I do love the gachapons. As for the heat, how well does Japan's power grid handle all the demand for air con?

there's also pokemon go fest in japan

Is the heat which people are avoiding. I have already went Osaka twice this year before summer started. Haha and planning to go Japan again in the autumn and winter.
