I find it totally adorable that Jun was losing interest in watching his darling wife talk purses but as soon as he sees an adorable strat cat he is off to stalk a cat. I love where his priorities lie. XD
@@JessicaSmith-bv4cm what's wrong with being simple or not being really smart or hell, just smart? If you love someone and dear to you then their a darling to you. So what's wrong at the og commenter saying She is a darling wife to him. Her level of intelligence does not have any effect on how smart she is. There are different kinds of smartness(?) He was simply wasn't interested at the topic and is much interested on cats than the purse topic.

I don't think mead exists in Japan. I'd be very interested to find some. When I eventually go out to Japan I'm going to scour the land to find out if Japanese Mead exists. I'll come back and post here if I ever find any, even if it's years from now XD After a little research I found a honey and cane spirit (rum?) enriched umeshu called 'Choya Honey' - It's the closest thing I've heard to mead in Japan. I also once tried a sake called Dassai 39, I can highly recommend it - The sake had slight notes of honey in it, it was like mead and sake had a baby. A really beautiful drink, well worth its price!
that's why when I first landed in Narita japan last 2008...I had 4 hrs to wait b4 my connecting flight ...I can smell the fresh and clean air... and they taking care of the environment on Japan that's why I like it...However I feel bad in my country in Philippines... I wish they have thus kind of strict rules in preserving the nature.One day or in the future I would love to bring my family in Japan... thanks Rachel and Jun for sharing japan
This is such a fun video! I thought it was a "serious" introduction of Shinto culture. You covered the subject, but also the fun moments of you guys in following a cat, trying out all flavors of ice cream, getting obsessed with umbrellas and finally getting one and later finding a cheaper price and... I enjoyed every moment of this video! Thank you!!!
I love how creative you guys are with the extra stuff you put in your videos. The "Jun losing interest" with the purses was so amusing, and then he became alert once again for a cat! Yey stray cats!

J'ai fait quelques corrections notamment Kinako veut dire sauce de soja (Kinoko pour champignon). Sinon rien à redire. Vous pouvez sûrement voir mes corrections et approuver ou non. I did correct few especially the Kinako translation Soybeam (the previous one mistook it with Kinoko). Except from that, most of the previous translation it good. He/She can check on the ones I make and approuve of not.
4 and half years I lived in Mie Prefecture, I have been to Ise Shrine more than 5 times. It is really a treat to be there, to feel the peace and the nature in this place. Thank you for sharing this place, it deserves it. I feel sad to see many tourists go from Nagoya to Kyoto and not even stop by Ise to visit the most sacred Jinja of Japan
Awww, I wanna go so so so so bad! Where I live we have lots of old-timey street fairs like this, where they sell local candy in strange flavors, cute knick-knacks, and local art. I love them! So this is just the right blend of foreign and familiar to me.
I visited it, it was so wonderful, mind blowing. One of my best memories in japan because it was so calm and relaxing ! Okage Yokocho was really great too, I was also very much impressed by the wood sculpture in the shop (plus the man is super kind)
I really loved this video. I like the editing a lot this way. All the little sound effects and speed ups and cut-aways were everything. I know it probably takes longer to edit adding all that stuff but I think it makes your videos funnier and more entertaining than most other jvlogs. Keep going! And p.s. I started getting into jvlogs because of a random video of you guys years ago. Love you guys!
I went Ise by myself in January this year and I have to say it is the most beautiful place in Japan I have visited so far. Delicious food, amazing scenery, wonderful hospitality~ Glad you guys managed to explore magical Ise as well. :)
That place is so beautiful. Thanks for showing it to us. Plus, I miss the rain so much (sorry, but I'm so glad it rained on your trip. It gave the video a really nice light, and made me feel calm and happy).
My wife and I were just in Ise the other day on a sort-of-whim. Walking around I couldn’t help thinking I’d seen a lot of it before. Then I remembered I saw it here. So I watched it again to compare notes. Looks Ike you missed out going in the water and eating Matsusaka sushi, which was amazing. You’ll be happy to know what appears to be the same cat is alive and well, wondering the street still.
It's amazing how much I resonate with Japan's traditional architecture and geography, especially their forests and mountains. I'm just looking at these places and dreaming of visiting in my gap year travels in 4 years. I'm sure my country will be able to visit Japan by then, so I'm really excited! I'm sure they'll appreciate extra income from travellers! Great video, guys.
That's my mom's hometown!! I'm so glad you visited ISE because most people who live in Japan don't even know much about this city/prefecture. I wish I can visit more often as well (I grew up/ live in the States).
wow, I never thought of doing that with an umbrella, putting the bags on it so you can still carry the umbrella. Very cool idea! The ones that have the designs show up in the rain are awesome!
Ise City is on my bucket list!!! I did a school project on the area when I was in post secondary and have wanted to go ever since. I'm really glad you guys did a video highlighting it. :3
I love watching these videos, it's so nice to see all the awesome places in Japan! :) I just realized yesterday that I've been watching your videos for over 4 years now, which is crazy as I usually never follow any youtuber for such a long time. Your videos are definitely my favorite thing to watch at the moment! :) Keep up the awesome work; greetings from Germany :)
I want to go see all those wonderful places so badly!! I'd need to make a lot of long trips there to see it all ;A; All the ancient trees and temples and all those beautiful little shops... Ahhhh!
Oh! I actually have one of those koi coin purses! I bought one at a cherry blossom viewing/Japanese cultural festival (that didn't have any cherry blossoms) and just sort of assumed it was handmade. That's really cool that you guys saw them too! I got the pink one.
This is really close to where my Dad is from and Naiku is my most absolute most favourite place in all of Japan!! So many amazing memories visiting here with family and friends and eating Akafukugori in Okage-yokocho :D
It really cool that most of the stores the packaging and displaying of the products is so neat and looks professional. And even the ice cream omg! xD I love to go there someday.
The umbrellas are so cool *-* I've got me one while I was in Nara and I'm still super happy, when the pattern appears. I just love your videos so much, thanks to you two I have a list of places I really want to go to - but so little time...
it is very nice there. We went there this year in the cherry flower time. It was beautiful. As we were there there was an old lady who played a flute. It was at the location at 1min 46s.
7:07 is SO relatable! I hate it when I buy something, only to find out I could've got it cheaper at another store! UGH! I hate it when that happens! Edit: 7:26 Apiphobics beware! (pun not intended) At least they are not wasps. Keep pollinating our flower, little bees! We appreciate it!
The purple umbrella at 4:00 with the cool water designs? I have a gold one just like it that I got at a 1000 yen store in Tokyo! It was one of, and still is, my favorite Japanese purchases. It makes me happy every time it rains and I can use it! lol
Omg, Jun is adorable. While Rachel is fawning over the cute purses, Jun: losing interest..losing interest...ooh! A cat!
Vini Girl And "My seal daifuku's better!"
it must have looked so weird to others
THAT CAT SHOT WAS EPIC
your face is epic
For some reason, I had the 'Mission Impossible' TV theme playing in my head during the cat chase bit LOL
Rachel & Jun
Hahaha wow
Ayyyy you have inspired me to come and live in Japan when i graduate college;)
Rachel and Jun HAhAHA yupp
I love that you can tell when Jun is filming based on the level of distraction cats provide
There were too many cool things in this video so I had absolutely no idea what to title it
0:00 Shrine of the sun goddess
3:00 Cutest koi
3:17 Cat stalking adventure
3:55 Magic umbrella
4:04 Craft beer and oysters
4:10 Dehydrated monsters
4:26 Wooden dragon art
5:00 Raw tuna
5:09 Dog in a dress
6:02 Candy face
7:24 Bee ice cream
Been there, stole some stuff from there lmao
The dog is so kawaii😍😻😻😍
Agreed :)
MoonstonePearl21 Do you also like inu shiba's alot?
This was really cool , especially the candy face and the ice cream 😋😋 looks yummy
Beautiful city as well
I can't work out which is cuter: the shiba inu in the dress and baby carriage, or Jun's fascination with the cat that he followed hahaha
Oh no...the horrors of my ice cream addictions are now on ur channel haha
HAHA omg dude I was dying that day, seriously
To be honest, I completely forgot about this crazy day haha
Just out of curiosity, how long ago was this filmed?
Ice cream drunkenness. It happens to the best of us.
I'm laughing too much for my own good 😂😂
I find it totally adorable that Jun was losing interest in watching his darling wife talk purses but as soon as he sees an adorable strat cat he is off to stalk a cat. I love where his priorities lie. XD
Alicia Martin same
Darling wife? Unless it's an act she's so simple the cats are likely smarter so no wonder he wanders off.
@@JessicaSmith-bv4cm what's wrong with being simple or not being really smart or hell, just smart? If you love someone and dear to you then their a darling to you.

MY SEAL DAIFUKUS BETTER.
Best part of the whole vid
Lol
lol i was about to comment the same thing.. instead, i give you a like!
sankyu
BEES!!!!~
You can just imagine him puffing his cheeks up in indignation as he says this
Wait did Jun really leave them to follow a cat?
Yes
It baited him into a store.
He/she catches little cat lovers like Jun🥰
Yup🤣😂🤣😂🤣😅😂
I mean who wouldn’t?
@@kaaate25 That cat is truly, a manekineko.
I would probably do the same thing Chris did. Ice cream is my ultimate weakness. That looked SO delicious.
I'm waiting for OkanoTV to find an Onsen that sells ice cream in the baths. We'll never see him again.
If I ever go there, I'm swallowing up that honey like there's no tomorrow.

does the honey shop sell mead ?

thanks for answering a lot of cultures do have honey based alcohol it seems like one of those universal ideas
I sometimes eat a lot of ice cream too! I don't get high on it, though, I just cry and start hating myself.
relatable
lol same XD
feel & appreciate the fatness in ur body XD
my grandmother ,a proper southern woman, said if you are drawn to bridges you have the soul of a true traveler!
Wow, you guys really upped your editing game this time. Must've taken forever. A+. Maybe as good as Gujo Hachiman.
I also get goma everything.
Goma is the shiz. :D

Kim what are you doing? 😂
(2:10)
Also when Jun was losing interest and spots the cat and starts chasing it was my favorite part.
I visited it, it was so wonderful, mind blowing. One of my best memories in japan because it was so calm and relaxing !
Okage Yokocho was really great too, I was also very much impressed by the wood sculpture in the shop (plus the man is super kind)
The ice cream part always puts a smile on my face! I go back to this video all the time just to rewatch it
The places you go, the landmarks, the animals, food, are interesting. Rachel and Jun, you two are a great couple for traveling to japan.
I have never related to anything more than Jun getting bored and following a cat.
"You can wash your hands or drink it to purify yourself."
"I NEED TO PIRIFY ALL OF ME!"

Jun your accent has gotten so good lately, almost sound like a native english speaker at parts
My home country in Japan! I have heard of it and been to it. The koi fish waters seem not too shallow, but if you look closely, it is insanely deep.
04:19 ...forever nightmares XD
KemushiChan ロレッタ yeah😂 i was about to comment that too
I wanna go to Japan even more now!
Ice cream is "lyfe".
me too :)

Sooo beautiful. Added to my list "of must see before I die". Love the umbrella!!
Chris, don't worry, not one can have too much ice-cream!
They all looked so good and the shell cone was super cute.
omg this is by far the most attractive vid I've seen about Japan. I wanna go there just watching this omg
If I ever get go to Japan, this place will be on my must see list. Thank you for sharing it with all of us. Can't wait to see your next video!
Your living my dream. I've always wanted to come to Japan, and I'm finally going next year. Thank you for teaching me so much.
wow, I never thought of doing that with an umbrella, putting the bags on it so you can still carry the umbrella. Very cool idea! The ones that have the designs show up in the rain are awesome!
伊勢神宮（伊勢皇大神宮）小学校のときに修学旅行で参拝しました。鳥羽に行くときによく前は通るのですがゆっくり見ることがなかったですね。秋になったら行ってみます。おかげ横丁も随分と綺麗な横丁になりましたね。
Ise City is on my bucket list!!! I did a school project on the area when I was in post secondary and have wanted to go ever since. I'm really glad you guys did a video highlighting it. :3
It's amazing to see you advertising Ise! I've been living in Ise for a year now, and most people don't know anything about it!
Wow, I'm from Mie prefecture!
Thanks for introducing this shrine!
You made me wanna visit there again :)
三重県楽しめてそうで、何よりです！
That channel give me more and more interest to Japan, I really want to go there when I grow up
"The city you probably haven't heard of" is probably one of the most hipster titles i've seen on one of your vids so far xD
HAHA I wasn't thinking of that!
Rachel's excitement makes every video, and I love how Jun is still happy and supportive while remaining stoic 😶😶 what a cute couple!!!
This video is super fun to watch. Glad you guys had a good time.
i always love watching these kinds of videos, i love learning about japan and planning for my future trips. Thank you Rachel and Jun!
Totally enjoyed watching your adventures shopping, eating ice cream, etc. I want one of those umbrellas!
うわぁ～伊勢神宮やおかげ横丁いいなぁ～気持ちがとっても落ち着くんだよねmy favorite place
千葉県民なんですが、まだ行ったことがなくって、
秋にでも行ってみたいと思ってたところだったので、
ものっすごく嬉しかったです！！
鳥居の前でお辞儀するところ、日本人でも知らない人がいるのに凄いなあ。
あと、「！？」のとき、メタルギアソリッドの音がしたとき笑っちゃったｗ
いつも動画ありがとうございます。
次の旅行動画、楽しみにしています。
ゴージャスがいとおかしになるところが、凄いおしゃれ！
I love watching these videos, it's so nice to see all the awesome places in Japan! :) I just realized yesterday that I've been watching your videos for over 4 years now, which is crazy as I usually never follow any youtuber for such a long time.

the umbrella and bag trick was SO COOOL!💜💜
あの蜂蜜屋🍯さんの蕎麦の花のはちみつ…
あの独特な香りは一度嗅いだら忘れない。
Hello Rachel and Jun! Lovely video. Me, my husband and his parents go to Ise jingu every year. It's like a tradition for us. Such a pretty place. :)
I want to go see all those wonderful places so badly!! I'd need to make a lot of long trips there to see it all ;A;
All the ancient trees and temples and all those beautiful little shops... Ahhhh!
伊勢神宮は本当にいいところですよね〜〜
おかげ横丁も歩いてるだけで楽しいです
I love these travel videos, thanks for sharing, its like a mini vacation from the house while I watch.
I'm trying to plan my trip to Japan for next year so this is a nice video to see. Thank you.
Japanese culture is so beautiful and intriguing! I hope one day I'll be able to visit!
I can't wait to be able to travel to Japan. Okage Yokocho looks so cute!
Omg Chris' laugh is so contagious!
Another job well done with this video~
Beautiful shots of the area! I have to visit there sometime soon.
I lived in China for two years. I used to see a lot of similar merchandise sold here so this was nice to look at.
i love it when chris goes ham on icecream, and how jun follows the cat!!
During my first trip in Japan, I went there thanks to my Japanese friend. It was great and I think it is one of my favorite place I visited.
Those umbrellas were so pretty with cool technology. I totally want some of those.
Oh! I actually have one of those koi coin purses! I bought one at a cherry blossom viewing/Japanese cultural festival (that didn't have any cherry blossoms) and just sort of assumed it was handmade. That's really cool that you guys saw them too! I got the pink one.
Awesome video! The bit with the map and going into "street view" was really great!
I love the umbrellas, too. They are just so cute.
I'm literally just taking notes on all of these and I'll visit them all once I move to Japan at the end of the month!!
i love watching your trips you two are so unique.. explaining, filming and editing is perfect and relaxing
Ever since I heard about this shrine in my arts class I've wanted to see more of it! I'ts such a beautiful place.
Japan = BEAUTIFUL craftsmanship!!
This is really close to where my Dad is from and Naiku is my most absolute most favourite place in all of Japan!! So many amazing memories visiting here with family and friends and eating Akafukugori in Okage-yokocho :D
This was a lot of fun to watch :)!
One of the strangest ice cream flavors that I LOVE is Tunisian pinecone seed pudding flavor, it’s delicious 😋
this is so well edited and just a lovely video! your videos are like an inexpensive way to experience real japanese culture and places, i adore them ♥
It really cool that most of the stores the packaging and displaying of the products is so neat and looks professional. And even the ice cream omg! xD I love to go there someday.
I love the editing in this video, really feel like you guys' skills are getting better and better!
I always wanted to go to Ise Jingu Naiku before coming to Japan. I had the opportunity to visit a few months ago...Such a great video, as always. :)
...ise area is my second home town...gosh i haven't been back there since...wow 1992? its about time to stop by there soon...
This was great, best way to start the week here in Texas thank you.
everything looks so pretty tell June that I said get well and to be careful with his eye have a nice day. and greetings from America!
伊勢といえば、手ごね寿司。横山展望台。そして赤福の抹茶氷！
The umbrellas are so cool *-* I've got me one while I was in Nara and I'm still super happy, when the pattern appears. I just love your videos so much, thanks to you two I have a list of places I really want to go to - but so little time...
Thank you for all this videos about prefectures and cities in Japan! They are so interesting!
I will visit Wakayama and Mie prefectures for the first time this year! Can't wait :D
ok ive been bingeing u guys' channel and im in love with u guys. i love ur travel vlogs
いつも楽しく拝見しております。私は英語を勉強しているのですが、字幕が非常に助かります。またこういった動画は、私にとって日本の良さを再発見できる良い機会にもなります。応援しておりますので末永く頑張って下さい！
it is very nice there. We went there this year in the cherry flower time. It was beautiful. As we were there there was an old lady who played a flute. It was at the location at 1min 46s.
7:07 is SO relatable! I hate it when I buy something, only to find out I could've got it cheaper at another store! UGH! I hate it when that happens!
Edit: 7:26 Apiphobics beware! (pun not intended)
At least they are not wasps. Keep pollinating our flower, little bees! We appreciate it!
Loving the effects you added to this video, especially the Google maps one!
Omfg lol I love Chris I think this is the first video I’ve seen that he was so on camera he’s so genuineness and innocent it’s hilarious
The purple umbrella at 4:00 with the cool water designs? I have a gold one just like it that I got at a 1000 yen store in Tokyo! It was one of, and still is, my favorite Japanese purchases. It makes me happy every time it rains and I can use it! lol
Whoooops, just finished the video and saw you found a cheaper place! lol. I feel silly now. But I do love those umbrellas!!
