One of the most satisfying things of this videos is when announcement volume inside the room is turned off!

I think the talking and singing is intentional to get people to move out of public spaces quickly and into their rooms

I love to watch these video before bed. Its like a comfortable bedtime story....

Every time I see Solo on a ship "My Heart Will Go On" starts playing in my head. 🚢

Dear Solo, thank you for your entertaining videos! We love watching them.

👑 Royal Suite, Room No. 1! You're the King of Ferry Travel around Japan, for certain! Thanks for this trip to Shinmoji! 🗾😎✌️

With every new video, I'm totally excited: What's up for dinner? Will there be curry? I can't wait to find out!

The name Funeko is funny, because it's a portmanteau word. It's half "fune", which is Japanese for ferry, and half "neko", which is Japanese for cat, so the name is perfect, it's "Ferrycat".

Oh goodness!! I read it wrong, then! I thought Fu=end/final and neko=cat, so "Destination Cat"

I got the "neko" part but couldn't figure out what sort of cat. Best I could do was "fun" as in "fun cat" which seemed suitable for a cute mascot but not really Japanese. 😂

Amazing sunset!! I could have watched that scene while drinking tea for a half hour if they had an outdoor chair n table! Pleasant journey, Thanks for sharing your trip 🙂 and your honest review!

I've always wondered about the top-tier accommodations when you're doing these trips, I'm glad you got this experience to share with us!

Yay! A new video! Gorgeous sunset!

Thanks for the video!! Greetings from Italy

I have been addicted to this channel for while . I love your camera work and you really film like we are all experience it for the first time,, also love the money conversion . I now have my Marine BF hooked on your videos' they are so relaxing yet informative, you have the best job in the world . I wish you a lifetime of success

I enjoy your videos so much as they helped fulfill my need to be on the water these last few years. We finally got to go on 2 cruises last month and I feel at peace once again. I like all the room tours but it makes me happy when you eat a satisfying meal, with plenty of rice, and then spend the night in a really nice room.

Thanks for always taking us with you! I could tell it was an older ship as soon as I saw the couch in your room, and I agree that the Kobe - Fukuoka one is nicer!

I always enjoy watching your videos thanks for making them.

Another great video. Loved it too. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for sharing your adventures with us!

Great vid as always!

I so love your videos.. truly my "relaxing" time!

I love your video's. They're so calming! It's like I'm travelling with you. Thanks

so relaxing such a relaxing video .. again. thank you so much.

Yesss!! Just wrapping up my work day and another STJ video to help me relax! :D Thank you!

Thanks for posting! I still haven’t been able to travel since the pandemic began so I am living through your videos 😊

Ah thank you. Just what I needed for bedtime, thank you STJ

My mouth always starts watering whenever STJ video rings my bell.

I missed the premiere of this ferry excursion…..but I’m here now. I love these videos!!!!! ❤❤❤❤

Always enjoy these ferry journeys, especially the details of the cabins and the food onboard.😊

Thanks for taking us along. God Bless and stay well.

This is a channel that I click like before I’ve hit play 😄

Very nice! And the cuisine looked delicious as always. I agree there were a lot of announcements.......safe travels, always!!

Just finished my work day and was about to head to bed when I saw the notification. Another amazing video, thanks for helping me relax before bed. ❤

Thanks for sharing this very nice solo tour my friend !

This might be the first time I've ever wanted to say that those beds look soooo comfortable! Beautiful blue/green colors, too. Ready for nap!

Congratulations for your wonderful videos, thank you

🇧🇷🇧🇷 Personally, my favorite videos from this channel, are the ones about ferries. Not the fancy ones, but the popular ( down to earth) ones. The things I like the most are: the food, the bathroom ( when its is shown) and the bed. I have the impression that , to take a shower inside these vessels may be something quite expensive because, quite rarely, we see the showers. Am I right? Taking a hot and warm bath; sleeping clean and comfortable on the sea.... must be something quite good. Why do I think in this way? Because you are sleeping with the waves'balance. I have traveled a lot by airplane, but ships...I don't know how to explain this but, the ocean causes fear... a lot of it.🇧🇷🇧🇷

Lovely video. It's very relaxing to watch this as a get ready to sleep.

Thanks for sharing and thank you solo travel japan for the upload So pleasurable I heart you mwah!

Oh my goodness this is gorgeous always nice to see a beautiful video from you your my kind of man you travel and you love to eat keep up with the sensational job

I don't know Solo, that was an awful lot of salad on this trip, you might want to double up on the curry next time just to even things out. 😁

The ferry is very beautiful and clean ty

I really appreciate the English subtitles and safe travels

Picture perfect sunset, have fun travels greeting from ny. ..

Thanks! love your videos.

Thanks for the super!

Even the older ferries seem to be in immaculate condition. The price of the meal also seemed quite reasonable. Perhaps not as fancy as other ships, but it looked very filling and tasty.

I love both ur channel (this and the food channel)

Thanks, Solo for another pleasant after-dinner cruise. I have MY desert watching you eat dinner. I knew those two cookies weren't going to be enough. ha.

STJ, I knew there was going to be a trip to the vending machines the moment you looked rather sorrowfully at those two little biscuits.

4:26 - "Shoehorn", of course... We all have seen enough Japanese movies to know that this actually is a Ninja sword! And the blade comes out by pressing a secret button! You know, to fend off pirates, cleaners, and people singing the Sunflower song!

Your videos calm me down, i really like them. Thanks for your hard work ❤ you made me into curry, i found a great restaurant here in Cologne Germany with a lovely tofu curry, yumm😊

O sweet 2 pillows for every bed

I like the pink pickle with the curry rice. It's really refreshing.

There was no red carpet for solo - san ,hope you walked with a royal wave and stance ...he he ...

This is the first video of yours where the food didn’t look that good. I was really surprised! I do wish the gift shop was open. I like seeing what they have for sale.

I can't always tell one ferry line from another, but when I see something distinctive like the Sunflower emblem (and song), or in this case the little cookies with the cat mascot on them, I immediately remember which is which!

I think I saw some "stew" in the rice bowl! Haha. Great camera work. Thank you.

So good😊❤ I'm going to japan in an week, i am from south korea 😍🇰🇷🇯🇵

Can't wait for you to finally go on giant cruise line like Royal Caribbean or Princess.

I loved it when the volume was turned down in your cabin.

I wish they sold Funeko merch online! I really want a Funeko shirt! Theyre so cute!

Glad you got some curry, although not sure I’d have it for breakfast 👍😋😉

Pretty shabby looking

That is a huge meal. It would be 3 meals for me. I love Japanese food.

The yellowtail does look particularly delicious

Hola saludos desde 🇻🇪 tus vídeos son muy relajantes... Ojalá y algún día pueda visitar Japón 😃

So glad you got your curry.

I laughed when he said Funeko cookies for desert…uh huh…right…I’ve seen your appetite and that simply won’t suffice! Ahhh Ice cream, there you go!

I want a Funeko pillow!😁🐈

I like your videos ! Do you think is it possible to have a look at the command bridge in one of your next videos ?

what a nice and well maintained ferry. I would’ve expected bare minimum since Osaka to Fukuoka isnt that far from each other

STJ, you simply must visit and do a video of the Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan hotel :) It would be so wonderful to see you present it here on your channel :)

I like daikon radish sauce, especially with tempura ebi.

First to see the video!!!!

Much love to you. It's okay that you are not having Curry, but I understand why you would think we would think you were having curry. :D Dinner looked good.

Night wears looks like Star Trek uniform. Make it so!

It looks like the accommodations were comfortable, at least, but the bathroom seemed out of place. The food didn't seem as good as some of your other excursions. Do you have a favorite ice cream? Thanks for taking us along.

Great trip, agree with your statement, this room isn't great as Kobe - Fukuoka route, but still acceptable.

Funeko always reminds me of the cat in the Captain Harlock series that hung around Dr. Zero. RIP Leiji Matsumoto

Huge ferry

Call me odd, but when at 2:13 STJ goes to check in and there are only about six people ahead of him in line and he says, "Oops! It's busy today," I had to laugh!

💖

🤩❤

Got the feeling that this trip was a little disappointing compared to the newer ships.

I love these videos. Just can't understand why anybody would need a cabin for a 12 hour trip. Heck, I'd be sleeping on the floor.

nice video but i wanna go there

For a Royal suite, it was very plain! A balcony without any chairs, and a buffet (pick and zap) style, definitely the newer ones are more welcoming. But I guess for the money, it's not that bad if you want to get there really early in the morning.

Soooo Posh!!!!!!!!🤴

Nice!!!!! A bit expensive, though...😅 P.S. It is better the Hibiki or the new Kurenai ferry???

I'd love to visit Japan just to ride the ferries, trains and such.

Gorgeous sunset and lovely first class royal. Question, does it take cars?

Still eyeing that "beef stew" with suspicion. 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for sharing Solo-san!

The cabin was very nice, just a little pricey. But if you have extra to spend, why not? I was surprised about the food. Neither the chicken or soy pulp salad looked appetizing to me, but they were your favorite. We all have our likes and dislikes, that's what makes the world go around. Will catch you in the next one. Take care, stay safe.

Let's get this man a tripod already

👍

😊😊😊

Thankyou for this adventure! I think the only annoying thing I would find in Japan is those rolling announcements in stations and on the ferry, do many people in Japan also find this annoying? 🤔

What's worse? The endless announcement loop or... SuuunFLOWER!!!

No orange juice for dinner?
