I DESPERATELY NEED HAWAII VIDS!
Seriously, your vids are like therapy for me. I'm stuck in a bad financial/family health situation nightmare. Seeing sunshine/warmth in the middle of Chicago winter would be glorious!
Glad to be a little window for you into other parts of the world! Thanks for coming along for so long! -E
I just binged all of the Shikoku episodes. Thanks for showing spots and experiences that almost nobody else shows and sometimes are difficult to find or even get to as a tourist. It's a crime that you don't have more subscribers because you are very entertaining and pleasant to watch. Also, the video in the mine was hilarious.
I've been watching you for so long that It feels like a 500 K channel, and blows my mind that it hasn't gotten there. I love you guys.
Haha, yea, I don't think we will ever be a big channel. Thanks for sticking with us for so long! -E
I seriously cannot believe you guys only have 50k subscribers. I live and work in Japan and still have been watching your videos for what seems like so, so many years. You guys are some of my favourite people on this platform and I honestly hope you are able to get the support you need to continue making these beautiful and fun videos.
Thanks so much, really cool you still are kept interested in our videos even though you are in Japan! -E
I appreciate the BB9 barbecue explanation! Keep them coming 😊
Your Shikoku series was so great, it literally inspired me to take a trip there. Thanks, friends.
Awesome, it's amazing there! -E
The froth on the tree@7:11 might be what here in Scotland we call "cuckoo spit", its actually a small froth bug commonly called a froghopper that creates the froth ,if you look in the froth you will see a little green bug. :-)
Yeah we call them spit bugs here in eastern Canada.
@@ikaruseijin01 :-)
:-)
Kyde callss the bathhouse Onsen but it's a Sento bathhouse, not natural spring water bath. BTW My friends run an American style dinner called 'Shioya Dinner' next to it.
That Pumpkin is by Yayoi Kusama. She has a cool museum in Shinjuku that’s worth checking out!
O, cool! More pumpkins?! haha -E
Kyde and Eric so many pumpkins
25:52 got me laughing. haha. you guys are hilarious. It was a pleasure bumping into you guys at the station a few weeks back! looking forward to your future vids!
Haha she was firing "konnichiwa" at all the white people that day hahahaaha. Kyde is crazy
Interesting place. You guys crack me up! Thanks for sharing!
The cows at the end were a pleasant surprise! Loved this, it looks like a really cool island to check out. Thanks for the adventure! Hawaii sounds awesome, can't wait to see that footage. Thanks again for this and sorry I can't contribute more, definitely would if I could!
No worries, thanks for any support at all, even if it's just taking time to enjoy! -E
Love you guys.. keep up the work!!!
Loved this trip! You both look radiant. Hope you both had a fantastic Thanksgiving!
loved the video Kyde & Eric , thank you for shareing to us :-)
Thanks!
Love the video!!!!! Keep it up!
Very nice! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for enjoying! -E
Love your videos!! Maybe soon I’ll be able to sign up for Patreon
Hey man I think that pole really tied the whole park together
Haha
Very much enjoy your videos! Great work.
Thanks!!!
I really appreciate you guys. I may never be able to travel but I'm glad you guys take the time to film your adventures so I can experience it too. Thank you.
So happy to hear, glad you come along with us! -E
Hey guys, just wanted to say thanks for all the great Shikoku videos. Going there with my lady in less than 3 weeks, but as I can't drive in Japan we're just doing city stuff. But you've given me so many ideas. It's like the reverse of last year where I went to Nagasaki a month before you did!
Don't know your situation, but usually getting an international permit to drive here is pretty easy! In the states it takes like an hour or less at AAA and $20 or so. Shikoku would be a good first place to drive here, traffic isn't too crazy as most of it is just countryside. -E
@@kydeanderic Well they don't like you to use an international drivers license past the first year you live here and I've been here 4.
Ah, yep, didn't realize you were living here. I'm in the same situation. -E
As allways an awsome series 👍 thanks
Thanks! -E
love your videos !
Found it thanks Eric 😊
I have been waiting for the pumpkins after seeing them on your IG oh and British people are really good at queuing so we are fine 🤣👍🏴🇬🇧
Thanks for making yet another fun video! I enjoyed this series alot! :) Hawaii tho!! poggers!
Glad you enjoyed the series! Thanks!! -E
This just popped up in my time line so a reart visit 😀
I appreciate how you guys have stayed true to what you want to do and not gotten into the sponsored video stuff. Looking forward to the Hawaii series!
Thanks! We are looking forward to Hawaii too! -E
Been keeping up with you guys for a few years! As long as you guys are still around, I'll be watching 😁
Glad you are still with us! Thanks! -E
You guys have done it again!! Thanks for another heart warming video to accompany me before sleep. Can’t wait to see your trip to Hawaii!! Make sure to eat some honolulu cookie company cookies!!
Will keep an eye out for these cookies! -E
I so wish I had extra cash to participate on Patreon, I truly enjoy everything you have put out. ❤️
Don't sweat it, thanks for always watching! -E
wonderful vlog. ✌️ Good camera quality
Thanks! -E
Nice place. Would love to go to Japan one day. Great vlog btw
Hope you can visit, its a great place to explore! -E
@@kydeandericThanks for your reply. Yes one day soon I will be there. Saving up for Japan atm
Cheese Eric.. Cheese... and happy belated Thanksgiving!
I wish we had more time to explore Shikoku. We literally only hit Matsuyama for a day and that was it. Luckily for us - and the rest of the world - you guys share your adventures in detail which lets us experience it all vicariously, even if we'll never get there. Thanks again, as always.
We've stayed at a lot of business hotels in the last few weeks and we've noticed that the bottle of water seems to be a 2 or more nights stay guest perk only. Haha.
Maybe we haven't been here long enough yet but I still love the key in the slot for lights thing - that is, until Jason wants to go down for breakfast while I'm in the shower and he forgets about that situation and I'm left to get the shampoo out in the dark. Not fun!
Hahaah, the main issue we have with the electronic card thing is if we need to charge something while we go out, like a camera battery or whatever. Wish they'd just leave the power plugs "active" for such times. Oh well.
Shikoku is amazing, you just have a reason to go back sometime! -E
Wow, you guys got a ton of content from Shikoku, nice! And it suddenly hit me that Kyde's hair is finally super long again. I've been watching you guys since long before she cut it short, man, time flies
Yea, her hair is really long now, next week's video will be much more recent and you may notice a big jump in it's length from these videos we filmed in the spring. -E
Nice new content :)
Like all your videos this series was great. Really makes me want to visit all these places. That plant you saw with the purple flowers looked like False Indigo (Amorpha fruticosa) which is native to North America. Also that foamy stuff on the trees that looked like saliva was probably a Spittlebug. The baby Spittlebugs make that foam to live in as they grow.
Do those bugs smell like grapefruits? Haha
Love your vids... wish we could afford to contribute :(
Can't wait to see Hawaii!
Don't sweat it if you can't, just keep enjoying the videos!
Have always been a city guy and here in Kobe we Kobe Art Village but yeah, Japan has got it right in the idea of these Nature/Art collabs. Frank Loyd Wright is smiling somewhere...
Love Yayoi Kusama! She doesn't only do pumpkins! But her pumpkins are famous. Watched a documentary on her she had a rough childhood because her mother mistreated her and she possibly suffers from schizophrenia. She's had a traveling exhibition that's been around the world. Saw a small exhibit in Gion Kyoto in 2018. We have a pumpkin on display at our outdoor shopping mall in Hawaii. And she recently had a balloon in this years Macy's Thanksgiving Parade! I loved the art on this island. Too bad you guys didn't do that bath out in the open. You could've pretended to be art. 😊 OMGGGGGGG you guys are coming to Hawaii! Probably not Oahu, too touristy. I hope you guys go to Lanai and visit the Cat Sanctuary.
We will be on Oahu for a bit, actually! We will keep an eye out for the pumpkin! Hahha -E
@@kydeanderic Yay!!
Nice Video Pals
Thanks!
❤️
❤️
You missed the art house project (houses turned into art instillations) AND the galleries. Definitely something to come back to!
Yea, if we went back I think we'd try to stay the night there so we had more time to explore for sure. -E
Nice video as always but Eric why you dont start as a tourguide in tokyo?
I don't have time and I'm very not qualified. Haha. -E
4:44 If you bathe in the hot tub you *become* the art.
Haha, not sure I would qualify. -E
24:13 Kyde does Speed Run of Shikoku lol!
I have been two times in Naoshima, and I was practically alone at the yellow pumpkin. Sunday is not a good day to visit 😅
Haha perhaps not.
I enjoy your videos so much and I thought it would be a shame to not support you on patreon.
Thank you so much! Happy you are enjoying, happy to get a little more support to keep it all afloat! -E
Eric just came up with what I'm sure is going to be everyones favorite new game - Art or Cheese ??
Ive had cheese so good it might qualify as art! -E
3:11 reminds me of amaranth
Has anybody noticed that Kyde has the exact same voice as Pam from “The Office”?
Great series as usual. And how about 'cheesy art'?
Just quickly commenting to get the TH-cam algorithms going and saying that I'll save this video for dinner time.
Enjoy it!
I think this place is main setting of some big 1 season anime that came out a few years ago. I can't remember what it called though
Not sure about it, but seems like a good place to film something!
I thought the red & black thing at the beginning of this video was a ladybug. LOL!
It's a pumpkin in a ladybug costume! -E
Well at last I've got time for a big catch up on my favourite TH-cam channel I'm linking this video to my art and sculpture page on Facebook later but I'm half way through this video of artists and sculpture that's brilliant well eric needs a art appreciation study pack 🙊🙉🙈😀🤟🌲🍂🌳🌲🌳🍁
Davidice101artist 🤟
What an enjoyable episode. Cheese. Camel.
pineapple jizzmas trees??? 😱
Thanks for the whole series of vids. I really enjoyed them but whelmed ( Overwhelmed would be putting it to strongly, so I invented, 'whelmed') with guilt as I'm quite a poor old guy and not able to donate. I could do you a picture as a way of showing you my appreciation; they tell me I'm a good artist?
Oh, please don't feel any guilt at all. We want to make sure our main videos are free for anyone to explore the world through. You can draw something if you'd like, but don't feel any obligation at all, just keep enjoying the videos! -E
Those were some marbelous balls!
What about Livestream engagement?
It's something we have done in the past and enjoyed, but it's not something we want to do a lot of. We want to focus on making our videos as opposed to becoming "live streamers." It's just not our game. -E
Hey guys, after watching to the end and you were talking about patreon and ads and stuff, why DON'T you guys put up more ads? If you have 10 min+ long videos you can put multiple ads and drastically increase your revenue. I totally get it if you don't want to bombard people with ads, but you can put them later in the video? I certainly wouldn't mind watching a few ads to give you easy money... I'm sure a lot of other subscribers wouldnt either?
Ads pay fractions of a penny per view. The amount of views our videos get would not add up to that much revenue. I don't really want to annoy our viewers for an extra $5 a month, hahaaha. -E
Card to turn on the electricity? WHAT?!?!
That sounds like Japan only thing.
Card for electrical is a thing in many countries...
Had it in Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Australia...
It's a way of getting "green certified" status...
Yea, as mentioned by Psychphüq I know I've seen them outside of Japan, but not sure where haha. -E
Kyde, "Look at these Mother effers!!......Konichiwa." Buwhahahahah!!!
Why is it always weird seeing other gaijin?
Ba-be 9. One of the bands I play in always writes it as 3+6=9. Never understood. Then people start asking me when "Sub rock is going to play next?" Too me a while, but san roku kyu...san ro kyu...sab ro ku. Confirmed.
I think I had shared your vids on Twitter. But now I'm banned from there so I can't anymore. Aggravators.
Haha, is there a story to getting banned?
@@kydeanderic
I basically said that men aren't women & women aren't men. Who knew that basic biology is now a bannable offense?
@@Yesica1993 Hah, weird, Joe Rogan was just talking about that exact thing getting someone banned. It's weird with how much vile stuff gets flung around on twitter where they draw the line. -E
@@kydeanderic
Yep. I've reported people swearing & saying all manner of nasty things to me, when I've not spoken to them that way. That supposedly didn't violate their rules. Nothing was done about it.
Humans inside of a cage, Is Naojima the planet of the apes?
5:31 cheesy art...🤔
14:23 what are Girraffe Snacks...?
I like the Willie Wonka reference...
Would Kyde be Varooka Salt or Charlie Bucket...? 🤓
Haha good question!
Oh, giraffe snack are just little...potato chip sticks? The mascot is a giraffe which is why we call them that. -E
Art? ..........or..... Holey Shit?
I think you guys need to develop your artistic criteria. Most of your comments in the video suggest a lack of understanding of art phenomena and they are insensitive towards the authors of the pieces, and Japanese culture. From my point of view and being a person who has traveled to not a few places and museums, I can state without hesitation that Naoshima is an extremely well-curated place. It's a shame you guys lack capacity to understand how deep and well though all of the pieces are. Maybe when you travel a bit more you may develop such ability. Cheers.
We have traveled to a couple places, at this point if we are still too stupid to appreciate something the same way you have I guess it's too late for us. -E
