I love a good road trip 😈 Especially when anime is involved!!

This week, I went to Tatebayashi, Gunma with my friends to wander around and look at locations from the anime Yorimoi (A Place Further than the Universe) and then we went to see the Christmas illumination lights at Ashikaga Flower Park!! Since it’s off-season for the flowers, the whole park is covered with lights and it’s really nice!

Then I went and had a nice little mall day alone~ I actually prefer shopping alone because I can go at my own pace and go where I want without worrying I’m bothering my friend or something 😅

Anyways I’m super busy with thesis work so!! I will now go do that!!!!

  1. Wow, looks like you had a lot of fun! I hope you and your friends had a swell time!

    I won't wish you luck with your thesis, because I'm sure you don't need it. You more than got this!

    Seeing all your down-to-earth videos on life in Japan, not so much as focusing on a specific aspect to either romanticize or bash it, is quite refreshing. October 2023 cannot come fast enough for me when I and my anime bro finally take our holy pilgrimage.

    Cheers!

  2. Omg grad school was the ultimate nightmare for me! I don't know you, but I am so proud of you for working hard on your education! It's SUCH a massive accomplishment to complete a graduate program! Best wishes on a swift and (relatively) painless completion of your thesis! Also, I LOVE your videos! Sending you lots of love from Portland, Oregon, USA! 💜💜💜

  3. I LOVE shopping alone and I tend to get stressed when shopping with friends. It's fun sometimes, but I enjoy being able to browse entirely at my own speed.

  4. love the video, just my two cents but the music is a little loud but a good choice thanks for the video 🙂

  5. It’s nice that you had a good experience with the shop employees! Tbh I actually adjusted my weight loss goals a little because i know how Japan is about that. And like I’m being healthy about it and I was losing weight anyway for my physical health and well-being with my chronic pain, but I know how much it’ll mess with me if Japanese doctors call me fat and I just don’t want to deal with it at all. I hope it isn’t too bad for you! And it’s nice that they think your nose is pretty (it is).

  6. It's the comparative of "balmy". So nicer, more pleasant weather. I know, it doesn't jump out at you.

  7. Hello! I don’t think I’ve ever commented on a YouTube video before, but I really enjoy your videos! I’m working on my Japanese and some of the apps you recommended have helped so much! Thanks for bringing a little more joy into my week 😊 keep it up with your thesis, I got my Ph.D last year and the dissertation was definitely the toughest part, but it’s so worth it in the end! You can do it!!!

  8. Whenever you get around to actually playing pokemon I can send you the other 2 starters! But yeah grass kitty is the best

  9. Are you going to do Fukubukuro this year? and how is that like now after pandemic? taking us shopping with you if you do!!

  10. That's a great video, i love to see your blogs and get to know more of Japan through your lens.

    I wish you the best in your thesis, you can do it🎉

    Have a wonderful weekend and thanks again for your videos.

    Greetings from Chile.

  11. I think even if you do vlogs from Florida it would be nice. I watch your videos because the vibe is calming haha and the way you talk is nice. Don't stress too much over needing to prerecord if you are too busy 💕

  12. Allison are you Jewish? Because Asian people do love Jewish people. So they might equate your tall nose to you being Jewish. I am Jewish so it is OK for me to ask you these questions, lol!

  13. 日本を楽しんでくれてありがとございます😊
    お花柄のカーディガンとっても可愛いです。

    動画の更新楽しみにしてます😊

  14. Beauty is subjective to certain people but nevertheless it's what we all are deep inside regardless of anything; Happiness
    is already existing inside of you & doesn't leave. People are confused with where to find Happiness or Contentment, they
    think getting more materialism is a key to happiness. Seems like your channel is mostly solely based on materialism;
    Would you enjoy doing other things or is this something you like to do for the fans? ;}

  15. omg those paper theater things are actually so hard and fiddly to build, i almost ripped a One Piece version to shreds trying to make it.

  16. I can't explain it but this is truly my emotional support channel lol… I love all your videos and a favourites video is a great idea!!! Even though I die of jealousy seeing all the cute stuff you get to buy in Japan 😭
