Drinking With Strangers in Tokyo’s Secret Booze Town
So first of all, Shino, it’s uh it’s part of Tokyo’s actually Katsuika W. Katsu Shika W. And the time is 20 minutes to 9. And it’s a lively area, but it’s very local. Uh, today is a Saturday night in Tokyo. Let’s see how it goes tonight. Of course, it’s not a famous area like Shiva or Shinjuku, but it’s interesting. It’s calm, cozy, and I think very relaxing compared to central Tokyo. And there is a cozy nightife area here. We’re going to check it out. So actually Shin Koa become a really like a local live area after they made a station. I think back then like maybe 100 years ago. The station is really old this on J line. So it you can get here I think it’s only eight station away from Akiawara for example on JR uh subo line or you can get here from Kinshaw. It’s only three four station on the east side of Kinshaw. We have been doing many live stream in Kin. I think you guys so it’s very close. So there is actually big shooting guy just the other side of the station. We’re going to check it out. So that shopping mall. Yeah, it’s not open at night late night of course, but daytime is a lively area. You can see a lot of small stores, bakeries, sushi shops, snack foods, snack food, bar, snack bars, all stuff. Also many type of Japanese food, ramen, also Chinese food is popular in this town. So also is a cheap neighborhood compared to relatively compared to other area in Tokyo because it’s very far from center. It’s close to Chiba and also like I said night life which we’re going to check it out tonight. It’s not really like a crazy wild. It’s cozy. It’s a lot of snack bars, car places, and some hidden area. There are some gas bar, some also like love hotel, snack bars. What’s this bar? Also, there are some pink salon as well and love. Yeah, like I said, love hotel in this town. All right, let’s head back to the other side. I’m going to check that. So, actually, so in Tokyo, there are two big three main rivers actually in Tokyo. Sumida river you guys know it’s near Asakusa Arakawa river which is much bigger is on the east side of Sumida river which we actually is very close to here I think it’s 15 minutes walk from here Arakawa river and then Tama river on the west side of Tokyo so we are now very close to Arakava river and there is a riverside area too here. But Arakawa, it’s not like Sumida is very is very wild. It’s bigger. And but there are many parks just on the river bank. Rental in this area is cheaper compared to other Tokyo. All right. Hello. Let me check the chat. Hello, George J. Did you hear about the guy that stabbed two people at the Gersburg? No, I actually I haven’t heard about that one. I didn’t hear that. I didn’t follow the news for two or three days. I was busy with with testing the other camera and dealing with no returning and uh that camera. I I bought it uh Lumix camera and I have to return it. All right. Uh hello Andrew. All right, that’s real. Hello. All right, let’s check. So, so sometime also get a Shinwa. Shinka is a very cool area near Mino. The other day I went there also near Skishima de Munja town. I took you there last I think was last live stream. That one is very far away. Shinwa here is different. Sh is near. So I did okay I did three four tests with the Lumix S1 Mark II which is a newest camera of Panasonic supposed to be the strongest Panasonic camera for video and it’s actually really good. I like the quality. I like the image stabilizer. still is not good enough to because I was aiming to get rid of the gimbal because gimbal is heavy and you have to uh you know deal with another battery and stuff for the gimbal. I thought that camera can handle like a walking video without like this position without the gimbal. And I tried the Shinjuku video. I think you guys saw it. It’s it’s good. It’s much better than Sony the stabilization because Sony this camera I’m doing Sony’s technology is like four or five years older than this one and Panasonic in general in stabilization is better than Sony anyway. Uh I didn’t feel much really okay. It didn’t motivate me to keep it because the stabilization seat is not usable for Yeah. If you walk slowly, if you really walk carefully slowly, it’s good. But walking 4 hours for live stream and you get tired, you cannot be careful streaming 4 hours. Yeah. You can do like one 2 minutes and do a really smooth video. If you even handhold the camera, watch like very carefully 2 minutes, 3 minutes and 5 minutes, then you can get a smooth camera. A lot of YouTubers that actually review that camera, they test it like that. I think those people that they test the camera like me for long video, walking video or streaming, uh they nobody like test it like that. All the review is about like a short, you know, footage for like a cut cut type of uh video. So yeah, for like I said for long video, the biggest issue was overheating. It’s really was really surprising that uh you couldn’t even record 40 minutes at once. If if it’s cold, the temp tonight also is not warm. If it’s cold the temperature, you can actually record more than 1 hour. But if it’s hot the temperature or you are inside a room after 40 50 minutes of recording it turns off. It turns off automatically then but I use a external fan with the external fan sticking on top of it. Yeah, you could actually make long videos, but that’s hassle. Making another fan on top of it, dealing with another battery for the fan doesn’t make sense. So, and then I went to the Akiabara and talked to the Panasonic guys and they actually they said yes, they have they have here that they it has overheating issue. So still it seems no camera can hit can beat Sony camera in terms of at least for long walking video live streaming FX3 or this one I have is Alpha 7 S3 which is same as FX3 but without a fan and surprisingly this camera I have without a fan doesn’t have really overheating issue. I’ve been streaming four hours, 5 hours, 6 hours with this, no issue. So that camera Panasonic with a fan inside and the fan also I adjusted to a fast speed to fast speed and it was noisy. You can hear it clearly that affects the microphone also the quality of the audio with that fan working hard still after 40 minutes gets overheating issue. That’s a big issue that Panasonic has to fix it and they don’t even mention it online. So the Panasonic guy actually told me that’s a really bad policy that Panasonic didn’t mention that. So they actually hide the weakness of the camera just for business. Then they have to deal with the return like me. I had to return it. So they have to be honest and mention the downpoint of the camera. They have to mention that this camera is not good for long recording. So I have to deal with that camera for 2 3 days. Yeah, but yeah, again quality is good, stabilization is good, but also if the quality was really better like this was better than this a little, but it wasn’t that much different that you know say okay I deal with another fan on top of this because the quality is very good but it wasn’t that like that. Also the the stabilization also wasn’t that great. Then yeah, I guess I have to wait for the next Sony camera or a better camera. But this this camera still is really good. Even it’s four years old, 5 years old. Yeah, actually I did I did all the settings. You know, Panasonic is not really difficult to the menu was wasn’t that difficult. I tried all the stuff inside. I maximize the temperature inside. So it keeps you know there is adjustment you can adjust it when it gets super hot. Only in that case if it gets super hot you turn it off. So, I adjust temperature hard. I put the quality to the lowest. I used a really high quality uh SD card. I did all the stuff, the setting and stuff, but yeah, couldn’t do it. All right, that was a my feedback with the new Sony new Lumix this one or two. They even offered me another Lumix which is more expensive than that with the 8K quality. But that one, it’s a hybrid camera for photo. That one I think has even more issue. So I said, “No, I’m not going to try waste a few more days for trying this one.” So I just returned it. All right. Hello, Brandon. Brandon is here. How are you doing? Do you know JP Singer Seiko Matsuda? I don’t really know. Or maybe I know, but I don’t remember the name. Yeah, winter time use. Oh, yeah. Guys, hit the like button. I forgot about the high like button. We We have to reach 500 tonight. So, I’m going to remind you to hit the like button. Thank you guys. And No, 100 likes, not 500. Sorry, was that that was the main channel. The challenge for the main channel is 500 likes in this channel because he’s a small is 100 likes. This is a Turkish kebab. All right, let’s head back to the station and we go to the other side of the station. So, this is the north side of the station. Let’s go to the other side. Yeah. Yeah. That was 500. Not 100. 500 is for explor. As you see the biggest explos So this is much bigger. night area. Let’s go. Check it out. And we The challenge for tonight is we we’re going to hit the 100 like button with you guys. Let’s go. If you feel the quality is good, the video is fun. Please hit the like button. Here’s a sol. So, actually I activated the digital zoom on this camera. This Oh, another point I have to mention about the Panasonic was also disappointing. The lens option. You don’t really have much of lens off. Sony has too many type of lens. I have already six lenses. G Master G, this one and it’s really good, but Panasonic lens are limited and they’re bulky. So, I got also a bit disappointed for the lenses anyway. But if that overheating issue was fixed, still I would go and buy it, you know, even though you know it wasn’t that really good in terms of stabilization, but I would buy it if there was no overheating issue. Brandon says Sony is good for posting with the catalyst gear information but requires a lot of time to crunch data. Yeah, I don’t want to hassle with like a dealing with software to stabilize because usually I’m doing live stream and stuff. So that would be a bit difficult. Let’s actually So this area is really big. We’re going to check it out. But let’s go. Let’s see what’s happening there over there just in front of the station. I think there was a concert or something here earlier. I hear the people when I was uh preparing the camera. Please don’t let the picture freeze again like the live stream that happened one time. Oh, you mean the We got what’s the battery is showing. So this is the shot, guys. It’s really huge. We’re going to check it out. Let’s go see what’s here. Sh. Oh, it was just a concert here in front of the station area. The concert is finished now, I think. All right, let’s go check the shooting guy. So the room the name of this shooting guy it’s pretty huge and also the so the there are some shops open and stuff but the main shop I think are closed this time. Also, there are many side streets with bars and snack bars and stuff. We’re going to check them out for Ahmed want to work a day. Thank you very much for the super. All right. Yeah, even S3 doesn’t have fan but doesn’t get overheating issue. Also one thing that we noticed in the Lumix I think the fan location in the camera is wrong is in the top part of the camera the fan and the mostly the overheating picture comes from the the lowest part of the camera. So even the Panasonic guys mentioned that it seems that sun is not sitting right place in the camera. All right, we’re going to check the whole area. Let’s check the shooting first. It’s a big really local area is far from central. It’s more it’s closer just between Tokyo and Cho. Yeah. So it seems there are many cooler stuff in the back streets. Let’s check out the shopping area and then we’re going to explore the back seats. Yeah, it looks three more to is Yeah, that I can’t wait to get that one, but there is no provide information when it’s going to come out. Maybe next year. [Music] Cool. So, as you see, the area is huge. Just around the shopping guy, there are many bars and other stuff. Check. [Music] Yeah, the FX2 is not really wasn’t a impressive camera. If you don’t have any camera, if you just buy that one for the first time, it’s good. But if you think, oh, this Sony or other cameras, doesn’t make sense to buy that one. [Music] Dr. answer. I can see your last two messages about his message. Yeah, the Brandon is right. The the technology is just for some reason got a stop point. We have to wait for a while. Very cool. We’re going to explore the back street. Looks Oh, actually I haven’t seen this chicken shop is very local. They have a lot of good looking chicken protein. All right. As soon as the shops are closing, we’re going to continue. Look at the big watermelon here. Yeah. Heat. [Music] and sometimes. times with the like a software update they can’t fix the overheating issue but I will I checked with them they said actually it’s upgraded updated this offer on the seal they hear some complain about overheating issue so that didn’t help All right. All right, guys. Hit the like button, please. Don’t forget we have to reach 100 likes. We are in Shin Koa. Shin Koa. So, Shin Koa station is just between Chiba and Tokyo. And like I said, it’s only I think 78 station away from Akiabara. And uh yeah, it’s it’s a really big area. Local here, not very. The station actually is very old. It’s about 100 years old. K9 and It’s a cozy night life here. Not crazy wild like Shiva or Shinjuku. No tourist here. No foreigner. If there is a foreigner, maybe they’re living here. I just see a few. They look like SS. All right, we are getting out from the other gate of the Shenai. So, I did a live stream with the Lumix FX3. No, sorry, Lumix S2. Lumix S1 Mark2. Do you guys feel any difference with this one? Do you feel there is no much gap? There is nothing like really to be noticed or you feel that one was better. Let me know in the comment what you think. Short bar here. people. All right. It seems there are some Asian people living in this area. I see Indian and Thai people in this area. So this also Indian restaurant. Okay. All right. Hello, Pedro. Pedro is here. Cool. How are you doing, Pedro? Hello, Ash DZ. Okay, Solar Lexus, good evening. Looks slow for a Saturday night. Yeah, we are in a very local area that nobody knows. Guys, hit the like button. All right, let’s continue exploring Shin Koa. So Shin Koa is just a really borderline of Tokyo and Chiba. And so we explored the Senai area. Now we’re going to head back to the side street to see the uh nightlife area. Should we go back from Let’s go from All right, we are at the residential area now. Let’s go back to the bar area. We’re going to go a bit straight and we’re going to turn right. This camera is lens is super high response time. Yeah, the focus is quicker. I think I think this camera even though it’s 4 years older than Lumix I still still I felt this camera autofocus is better also the like I said the lenses are better for sunny and especially I like this one because it’s a power zoom lens so it’s a power zoom lens and now I tried the zooming with even the Lumix So the lens was really hard to turn. So when I turn this when I zoom, it actually makes the gimbal unbalanced. So I didn’t is super smooth. Let me show you how smooth is this lens. So I can zoom. Also I added actually activated the digital zoom. So this is until here is the camera’s optical zoom. But from here we’re going to lose the quality because it’s a digital zoom. But it’s good sometimes. For example, I want to focus on that foot. I can just go like this. This is like 35. And then from here can go like 100 mm like this much zoom. It’s a beach also. So it’s really a smooth that camera for this Lumix camera is impossible doing this stuff. Let’s see what we have here is a bar. All right. I already got Here’s the I have to get a drink. This is a snack bar. Snack bar. So, the snack bar or more like a private. So, the door is closed. All right. Thank you guys for feedback about the camera quality. Looks so sharp, bright, better than better in low light. The quality is amazing. I am not sure, but Lumix uses digital shutter speed last longer. Okay. Rainy says in 480p Sony very good and Panasonic. Yeah, that the the good thing with Lumix was it was 24 megapixel. I like the, you know, you want to get like a snapshot for like a thumbnail and stuff, that one actually works better. But in No, in general, I think quality is almost the same as this. All right. This area looks very nice. A lot of bars, mostly snack bars. So, snack bars, you know, they have their own regular customers. They don’t need to advertise. They don’t need to keep the door open. And this one is like a ice bar. Is like a snack bar, but with car 1 hour, 3,000 yen, all you can drink. [Music] Yeah, I’m going to get a little sour. Actually, now I feel I need a little sour. Yeah, Dr. Franc, the focus was searching quite a bit. I could actually make the focus uh because you can still uh fix that in setting. But still in general, I wasn’t perfect. All right, let’s check the side. All right, [Music] shutting guy is almost dark now. It seems they’re closing. Hopefully there’s no I mean there’s no gate. So we get block out in the morning inside the shooting area or something. That was just a joke. A bad joke. Oh, this one is a I know. This is like a Vietnamese. Yeah, Vietnamese.

[Music] Not sure what was that was again. Sky tree. All right, let’s let’s head back to a different street. Oh yeah, let me Some of you guys might not be familiar with Kishu area. Let me actually explain about Ku at all. So, Kinshu, like I said, it’s a really busy area in Suma, not far from Tokyo Sky Tree. This place is like a secret downtown. Not super famous for tourists, but is a big favorite spot for local people. And you’ll see a lot of shopping malls, parks, small alleys, and even a lot of know nightife spots in this area. So, let’s explore this area. So, Kho is on JR so line, the one we used right now a few minutes ago. So it’s very easy to reach from Shinjuku to here. I think it’s about Shinjuku or Akiawara. If you are in Akiawara, you can get there by 10 by you know uh this the JR if you use the JR line I think it’s only 10 minutes from Shinjuk is 354 minutes and this bar is cool. So, this area is very low cost and I’m going to show you the sky tree again from uh the street in front of us and we’re feeling more even more beautiful. So right outside the station you know after you come out from Kinshu station it feels like a mini version of Shibuya very crowded tall buildings big screen but the one thing is I should clarify is bigger than Shibuya actually Shibuya is feels very narrow here is bigger and there are many shopping here like Shiba shopping malls parkour Terina, Marui, Olina Mall. There are many shopping malls in this area as well and they are really big. And that’s a sky tree. Let me do another zoom. I like zooming on Sky Tree. That’s Sky Tree.

You’re just in front of station. smoking. Hello. This is smoking people. You kind of smoke outside. You have to go inside this glassy rooms for smoking. So, we are in the main of push station. Oh yeah, I see some question about where I am from. Everything about me online is in I don’t really share any information. Not name. I just like privacy. I don’t show face. I don’t say where I’m from. So please don’t ask personal question. I’m showing you Japan is not about me. So do not ask that type question anymore. And we are in front of station now. It’s so cool. If one day I show myself in the camera then I can share my information. But don’t just keep repeating where you from. Don’t ask question about me. Ask question about Japan. Anything you want to know. I tell you I have reasons to not share any information. Let’s go actually check the no the other side of there’s an there’s an area with a lot of bars with a lot of bars and uh snip bar actually I’m going to take you there we have sometimes We have to let me see if we can. We have to use the bridge. So he show also is a business town. There are many office and companies in this area. So it’s really huge area for me. They compare it to Shivia but they say a little version of Shibia but in Shiva everything is narrow here is really huge and big not that crowd So just let me explain actually something. The reason Because the way I started this channel was very different. I was in a different spot when I started this channel. I worked for Japanese companies uh game companies and game companies super super sensitive. If you are if they know you are doing social media, Instagram, YouTube, you’re going to be under focus and they’re going to check you every day. Why? Why do you share that? Why do you share this? So I started this channel secretly because I know I’ve been working for Japanese company for 8 years now. Still I’m working freelance for some companies but until last year I was like a full-time working for game design and game design companies especially they’re super sensitive. If you’re doing like any YouTube they’re going to question you every day and I hear really bad stuff. So this way I just hide everything. I didn’t want to share any information about myself. That was the reason that I naturally kept everything secret. But now somehow I’m used to it and I just you know it would become like a habit. But when I reach like a like if I make this channel bigger later my purpose is to reach 1 million. subscriber and after that I can actually yeah show off in the camera and share my information. Okay. So help me to reach 1 million subscriber. Then you can now go here. And now we are in the front area of Germany actually hotels and red light something. So bro, hey, how is it going? How are you doing? Sorry. No, YouTube. YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video YouTube video. Hello yes YouTube. Okay, have fun. All right. Ser. Yes. Wow. Are you looking for fun tonight? Ramen. Ramen. You are looking for ramen. Yes. Kare ramen. You like k ramen? You like ramen? Yes. Yes. I like to pay. You pay for me? Okay. He’s going to pay for my ramen. But I It’s okay. I had food tonight. Thank you very much. Thank you. Enjoy. Thank you. Thank you. Have a nice day. Thank you. You too. He wanted to pay for my ramen. I Yeah, I like ramen. But it’s high calorie. If I eat ramen now. So this area is K shows red light area. Everybody’s asking for massage or some stuff other stuff. You can see a lot of catchers. I have the camera otherwise we call too. All right. Thank you guys for understanding. But yeah, sorry I can’t share information at the moment. That’s my plan. But yeah, in the future I wish. So this type of places you see with the curtain, the screen shows information. So they give you information about the deadline. So this area is back street of king with a lot of guys standing in string it waiting for customers to take them inside the shops. shops. And another short walk here. So I have to say something now. The guy that he was invited me for ramen. I said, “What are you looking for?” He says, “Ramen.” But this guy, he just approached him. They were negotiating about Nemon price. So that demon price is not a rum price. It’s something else price. Demon is like 20,000 yen. first shielding you I see a lot of What is this one? Has a bar. It’s a big bar actually. Nice bar. It’s huge. Okay. Heat. I think there’s no traffic light here. We can just go here as well. All right, that shop in front of us, it’s cool with a lot of girls standing. What is this? All right. Now it’s 10:15. I said I’m going to finish the stream at 11:00. Forgot. So I have a video is uploaded I think at 11 in the main channel. Please check that one out after this live stream. That one is not a premiere. It’s a no narration video. That one I recorded with actually Lumix S1 Mark II for test in a world. Check that one too. All right. So, there are actually more bar and cooler places in this area. And if you walk 10 minutes, it’s going to be too many love hotels as well. But I think tonight it’s enough for that one. This is another girls bar here. See, there’s a bar. All right, hit the but hit the like button, guys. This is another bar. So, I’m heading to the station now. I think we almost done with the Kinshu, which is a really cool night life area. And it’s a, you know, cozy red light area in east side of Tokyo, exactly opposite side of Kawoko. And the prices are even more reasonable here compared to Kito. It’s cool. Nice area. It’s fun to explore. Hello. Hello. Hi. Uh, Petro J is love hotel and red light district. What? It wasn’t a question. There is a love hotel and a red light expert. Oh, it’s a big part of Japanese culture. We have to we have to learn about them. So, especially I’m doing the night video because I like night walk, night life. So, we see a lot of things at night. We should know about them. We should explore. They speak part of this first night. Like, what’s wrong with that? a lot of catchers in this area too. So there is a famous the Starbucks here is really big but now is not open. Yes. Okay. Dr. Per, thank you very much for the super set.

58:23 yakuza 0 when u meet the drunk people and get them beer
Hi J E interesting video not really my cup of tea as they say but none the less very informative i like the phrase CATCHER
it seems its like most countries in the world MONEY buys most things but maybe a bit safer in Japan and with a softer edge to it. All the best .
Love the camera zoom capabilities that is insane. Also going over walking bridge over the street is a wonderful view in Japan and Asia. Great bar sharing locations with you
Maya looks like Ryoko Hirosue lol
I enjoy the vicarious feeling I get watching your video
After the last interview with the two guys I really don't see any violence of any kind
Is it just me, or do I see more foreigners
Haven't seen you with Miley in a while. Hope everything's okay between you two
