The stump would be worth the journey alone. 10/10 stunning stump.
I appreciate your dedication to walk more than 20 minutes to show us footage of the front of the Ghibli museum, we forgive you for not going, but I appreciate the effort for trying! 💯
Wow, I found this quite late.
I've been living in between the stations of Kichijoji and Mitaka for the last 2 years, and I gotra tell you... you've basically described my Sunday stroll routine. lol
I enjoy the amount of humor in your videos.
I laughed so much such a fun video - Informative and entertaining, how was this free?! Thank you for bringing me some joy today. Just stay your wonderfully dry humoured and chill self. I’m so glad I subscribed 😂🥰
Such a cool channel and content. I was so close to visiting Japan one point myself. I had experience with modeling and in late 2015 I was in contact with Capcom about the facial likeness role of Leon for the Resident Evil 2 Remake. I failed to mention I also have a voice acting background, in the end I lost the part and I can't forgive myself for wasting such an opportunity to visit Asia.
2:25 that's the strategy of every awkward gaijin. i can relate 😭 also im going to kichijoji tomorrow so this was a great video to plan with
Thanks Lyssa! Absolutely love your sense of humor!! Keep 'em coming!
Thanks for the video! I'd definitely feel a bit awkward going in some of those small shops and restaurants.
This place is definitely going on my bucket list 😍
You're adorable. 😍This place looks like a very sweet place to explore...thanks for highlighting it! 🙌
Loooved Kichijoji and can't wait to go back in April for more shopping (rip wallet)
Whew! I didn't realize I have been holding my breath for another Lyssa post. And this one Lyssa has allowed a little more of her complex personality through. Thanks Lyssa!
Thank you for this video! I wish more Japan vloggers would spend time showing off the non-touristy areas of the country. I would love to see more of this kind of low-key "normal life" kinds of places and content! Thanks Lyssa!
I really enjoyed your video. I love the streets and to see how the city "lives". You did a great job with the shots and views.
Kichijoji looks great! That park was top tier. In the thumbnail i saw you holding up your hand & it kinda looked like you were showing off your untaken ring finger. I thought "no.. NO, she's just making a five gesture, stupid!"... but then you took us to a ring shop! Is this all subliminal messaging? It worked! 💍💝
love the video something different from the main areas of Tokyo
"see?" - and shows gloves 🤣🤣 omg you crack me up!!
Yes, i'm sure we believed you even without the photo))
Edit: and more clever humour along the way! 😉
Just discovered your channel, love your content! ❤❤
love you taking us through a underrated and unknown great spot for shops and food! i totally get your strat when it comes to finding a place to eat and fitting in. Your street cred is up there believe me. You unlocked a neighbor-world for us. arigato! ganbaro!
Not sure if the jokes are scripted, but some really random but hilarious one liners! I laugh more in this than 10x Abroad in Japan videos! (If you see him, you can tell him that!)
I’m sure I’ve been to this area as I’ve been to the ghibli museum but somehow I just ended up at a tgi fridays and I completely missed all this stuff 😢
I here for the humor, but stay for the background music. 💃🕺You’re great!
Omg Kichijoji streets as well as the park look so pretty!! Definitely underrated!! Reminded me of another area i had 'noted' before... don't remember the name but i'll have it somewhere.
Maybe silly question, but, is Kichijoji a residential area too? I would totally rent there! 😅
Happy New Year!!! Inokashira Park is beautiful. Thank you for the video.
You’re funny! Subbed
I studied at university for a semester in Kichijoji and it was really nice to see it again in your video! B-side label was actually the last place I went to in Japan before returning to the UK ;) I need to go back asap
I'm going back to Tokyo in May, definitely adding Kichijoji to the list. Thanks for the recs!
Lyssa good to see you doing the vlogs again
Thanks for the video. Will consider for my trip in February…
New subscriber here, loved this video!♥️ adding this to my Japan itenerary
I have to get a bus from Kichijoji to a gallery I'm interested in! Looking forward to it!
The name of the ring shop: "Glänta" is the Swedish word for "glade".
I wonder why they chose that name.
Thank you for the fun overview with some silly sardonic humor. I think you have a typo around the 45 second mark? "Fun fact: Kichijoji is only a 15 min. train ride from Shinkuku!" I am guessing you meant to write "Shinjuku"新宿? I am a fan of Ghibli, but their museum did not exist the last time I was blessed to be able to visit Japan. Hopefully I can afford to return some day and check it out. For now, photos from the Internet are more than sufficient.
ramen Kaijin is apparently the best place to eat nearby along with Cafe Lumiere
Your music choice always reminds me of Pilot Wings on the SNES 😂
Harmonica Alley has been there since WWII. When I lived there for 20 years, It was grungy. The best food is at Katsu's, a yakitoria to the right to the right of Tokyu Depaato. I don't know why you think you stand out. There have been gaijin there since forever...
All those places seem super cool. I'm afraid I'd leave all my money in that sticker shop!
I think there were some "J-Vloggers" based in Kichijoji - for good reasons, it seems. I'm still wondering how to get one of those porcelain pots (like at 3:50) back home with me - but I fear it might be necessary to grab a kintsugi set off Tokyu Hands to go with it. B-side label is fun - it's a chain and they are in lots of other locations as well, for example in the Yokohama Akarenga. They had a nice promotion going on where you could grab a free sticker with a purchase as a foreign tourist, which currently resides on my fridge.
Just a reminder my luv, your studio mic is only outputting on the left channel, so you can fix it on your future videos. take care ♥ PS. i like drinking liquid chocolate hot or cold, but since weather is too cold I prefer them hot ^_^
YES, SHE'S BAQUE!!!!
you didnt add the capyneko cafe
Are the colours really that bright or do you increase the saturation for your wide field shots as a device? Cuz, like, your shots of you seem to have less colour in general and, is that a deliberate narrative tool?
Just subbed
do you have Japanese friends over there?
It would be cool to see you hanging out with them
I have seen many struggling over there because of their Japanese level
7:06 dawg what 🤦♂🤦♂
Wonderful Video and i can forgive not going to the Ghibli Museum but not the truly shamefull Hot Chocolate slander how dare you young Lady. 😉
I'm complete opposite of you, didn't give a crap about that area went straight to the museum.
Not underrated. Kichijoji was the place 30+ years ago. Was never necessary to go to major spots such as Shibuya or Shinjuku as the place has everything: Live houses, different ethnic restaurants, movie theater & Inokashira Park. Lived there from 1989 - 1993 and feel blessed that some people showed me the place on my first visit to Japan in 1988.
Lol. Well, your intentions were good and you "almost" made it to the Ghibli Museum, so it's alright.
Hot chocolate…how dare you. 😉
Hi Lyssa
Is it permitted 😊 to watch your videos because of you more than the places you present ?
You don't like hot chocolate? Unsubbed! jk
Tare-katsu is great there! 😋😋😋
Every now and then your sound comes from the left speaker instead of surround.. When you do voice overs and not in person talking etc. Still enjoyed the video tho! Also, as a compliment, your eyes are a pretty colour... not being a creep, just trying to give you a compliment where one's due, take it easy yo x
Loooved Kichijoji and can't wait to go back in April for more shopping (rip wallet)
