  1. At last i travelled diff part of japan recently such beautiful country .with God grace we experienced Autumn trees ,Christmas decorations everywhere too beautiful. TY for your informative videos it helped a lot.

  2. I will be visiting with 2 friends for the last 3 weeks of December and will be flying out on New Years. Are all the bullet trains fully booked up in December? We were planning to take the trains from Narita to Tokyo to nagoya, then to maibara, kyoto, onomichi, Hiroshima. Then Himeji on Christmas and go that evening on the train to Tokyo. But is everything full already or is it still possible to get tickets the day of?

  3. We were supposed to be in Tokyo from December 5-20, 2023 but my wife got sick 1 day before our flight…sad to say our trip to Tokyo was cancelled…

  4. Aloha Kenchan! Arigato for all of your recommendations for our first trip to Japan last week. Used your discount code at Ninja Wi-Fi. Worked great. Purchased our Pasmo cards too since we were only in Tokyo for a week. Saw all the wonderful places that you pointed out in your videos. The only issue we had was with Google maps. Didn’t work so well but luckily when we asked people on the street for help, they were so kind to point us in the right direction. Your channel is super! 👋😀

  5. Another terrific update Kengo san. We arrive in Tokyo in 3 weeks time. Have our shinkansen tickets reserved for Kanazawa on New Years Day and then back to IIyama, and looking forward to ringing in the new year at Senso-ji! Hoping there might be an izakaya open on Hoppy Dori beforehand. Arigatou gozaimashita!

  6. I remember last year when you were thanking people for 1.5k subscribers, I was preparing for my trip in March and was happy for you. Glad your channel has grown. Can't wait to come back to Japan in two years with my girlfriend this time. I also recommend people visit Koyasan as a day trip from Osaka, it really is a beautiful place.

  7. Merry Christmas! I love that you changed your picture to Father Christmas and your pug's face to a reindeer hahaha

  8. Thank you very much for this informative video, appreciate it. Plan to go asakusa and harajuku on 1 Jan 2024, just checking if the shops are closed?

  9. The streets are so beautiful. Thank you for the update, When will the Christmas lights usually be taken down? We are visiting on Jan 6th. Hopefully not yet.

  10. We won’t get to Tokyo until 12/16 to exchange our jr pass and planning to reserve seats from Tokyo ti Osaka on 12/24 and return 12/29. Do you know it will be full?

  11. Tokyo'a winter illumination is the best. I love just strolling in Roppongi and Akasaka after dark between Christmas and early January even if it's very c+old. The nice thing is December is dry and sunny most of the time.

    I looove walking past stores in the season, almost every one of them play Mariah Carey or KinKi's Cinderella Christmas 😂. Altho I think Japan's KFC is a bit aji ga usui compared to Indonesia, I try to eat some when Im there in December.

    My fav jinja for Hatsumode is Toyokawa Inari ❤ but hatsuhinode is usually in Osaka after watching oshogatsu live concert with my friends 😂 I bring lots of Kairo and drink lots of warm sake hehehe
    It's sad I can't go this year-end because of work.. Maybe, hopefully 2023-2024. Last was 2020 new year and I got a daikichi, hoping for a great year. I guess that didnt happen right 🤭

    Aah this is becoming a very long comment! Gomen gomen.
    Thanks for the video as always Ken-san. I hope you post a birthday video ✌️

  12. Kengo, beautiful to see the holiday in Japan! Guess what? We just got our tickets to travel to Japan again in April, staying >3 weeks this time! Wish you and your doggie a happy new year and Christmas.

  13. Hi Kengo-san, we'll be going to Osaka from 28th Dec and just found from your channel that there will be no fireworks…oh…I had thought every city will have that on new year's eve…😢

    Will be in Tokyo from 1st to 7th Jan…and just chilling and shopping.

    Is there anything good to see in Yokohama?

  14. Hi Kengo-san, me again. Was good to know about general conditions in Japan right now as your channel is very current , as well as informative.

    Shinjuku and Ginza are popular places.

    Wondering if you would have anything about Shinagawa area?

  15. Thanks for another beautiful and informative video. Could you please tell us when these festivities start in Tokyo? More power, Kenchan San.

  16. @Tokyo Kenchan you may want to let your subscribers know about the new 1-day Kyun Pass which can be used on Shinkansen on dates between 14 Feb and 14 Mar 2024 by JREast 😊
