that japanese airbnb host really goated for helping you get settled and being welcoming like that. Good luck in Japan and looking forward to your future vlogs! Gambate!!
bro this feels like a literal series, but in all honesty I’d act the same way you did if I went to japan. Freaking out over grass lmao. Loving these vids, keep it up
Your excitement and enthusiasm reminds me of the first time I went to Japan in 2013. I too was just as excited about the little things like the announcer on the plane speaking Japanese and the grass... you're not alone! It's great to see that you've taken the time to learn a little Japanese before going and I hope you have an amazing time. You're doing awesome! Ganbarimasu!!
Dude I got so vicariously excited watching you experience moving to Japan and touching grass there for the first time. I hope you are able to become fluent in Japanese one day and enjoy the experience there!
you have such a great vlogging style thats super enjoyable to watch! Ive been thinking about moving to Japan for a while now and this has helped me to decide that I should just go for it! I look forward to watching your journey and im cheering you on. :)
I feel so happy and enthusiastic for you 🥹 your joy and wonder is getting to me through the screen, and now i want to go japan too! Love your vlogging style, so cool!
I just stumbled upon your channel. I just came back from Japan and your videos are making me tear up missing everything about Japan. I want to go back and leave America behind. I hope you are still enjoying Japan to this day and I wish great fortune for you and your YT channel! Keep it going!
I love your energy and how unashamedly excited you are. Your happiness just to start a new adventure and be there and see all these cool new things and experience something new, that pure, unfiltered wonder is absolutely contagious. I love it. Had me grinning ear to ear the entire video. You're hilarious, love this video. Just subbed, I'm excited to watch more of your content. This makes me look forward to studying abroad there even more than I already have been.
Your expression says a lot about your hype, gets me pumped up for my trip next year. Cant wait for it... Btw Sora the trolls intro and extro voiceover was unexpected.
Hi Athan. I just saw your video. You give off a really nice vibe. I hope things are going well in Japan. I'm moving to Japan next year for two years to learn Japanese. I've been there already but I've excited nevertheless. You video made me even more thrilled. Have a good one!
You’re literally living my dream!! I just came across your channel this is the first video I’ve watched, can’t wait to watch all of the videos in Japan!!
Man you are giving off the exact same energy I would have if I could visit, it almost feels like my thoughts are being felt and said by you hahaha! Hope you had a great time there, and I look forward to visiting Japan one day!😁
You certainly have a unique hairstyle. I am sure that your haircut and your tall stature will soon be remembered by the Japanese and liked by all. You seem to be skilled at creating videos. The storytelling is well made and draws you in. I look forward to future stories in your vlogs. Keep up the good work!(頑張って)
This video was made almost a year ago now, but I just found it and I gotta say that this was a really nice video. It really put a smile on my face, I really like your energy and vibe lol I started learing japanese earlier this year and I really want to study there when i'm a bit older and seeing a videos like this always makes me hopeful for what the future might hold for me, thank you for inspiring me
I am so grateful for this video, showing your experiences moving to Japan, and I'm absolutely about to binge watch through all of your videos. Also, the presentation of the vlog using different lenses to capture beautiful cinematic shots absolutely blows every other vlogging channel out of the water. Thank you for this high quality look into your life experience in Japan
As someone who wants to go to japan and live there you've genuiley inspired me to be able to go abroad and study hard to achieve my dream. Keep it up ur doing a great job!!!
Very good series Athan! I binged watch it. It was very well done. I liked that you incorporated the story part in nihongo. Also, congrats to you for following your dreams and persevering through the challenges you faced. What a nice year you had and lifelong memories!
I LOVE this video so much!!!! ❤ Watching this video reminded me SO much of when I moved to Ireland (from my home country Finland) for my study abroad semester, literally this video pretty much gave me chills because I was reliving the feelings I had when moving abroad, I 10000% understand the "Japanese grass" comments and everything small you got excited about because I was the exact same way, "omg Irish grass, it's so green", "Irish treeees, woooow" etc. It was one of the absolutely most magical and special moments of my life 💚
I want to move to japan so badly, I was not that big into anime but I love cars like Miatas, or Supras. This video really helped me realize I was not wrong on my decision ha ha. Definitely earned a sub.
love your videos dude, their very goof quality and you can really see the effort you put into them! and I love the guy narrating it kinda makes it inspiring and funny haha
I'm living in this dream of a video. Watching this has made me come to a realization again. I do truly desire to study abroad and hopefully move to Japan. This is fantastic! I was also wowed by the Lawson convenience store!
The same you are moving to japan, I am trying to do so in 2025, I hope I get to connect with you somewhere and we can talk about it! great work buddy, you motivated me much more to take this step!!
Wow. Just randomly discovered this channel out of the blue. Jesus 🙏 You made me relive the excitement I went through when I moved to Japan. Just like you, I got excited at every single bit of thing I saw including the grass. Everything was different and like you, I just threw myself into the country excited for the adventure. Wishing you the best. Your bravery is inspiring and reminds me of myself in my early 20s when I moved to the country.
I've seen some of your newer videos, and I love your distinct voice over anime series style. But this was something else - so funny and really wholesome. Love it! Edit: Dude, actually inspirational. For a while now I've been thinking of moving to JP next year and vlogging it - and if it's half as good as this I'd be so hyped.
I've visited Japan twice; it was an extraordinary, unique experience. I was mainly in Tokyo. I did do an overnight to Kyoto. I've never been in a city so densely populated and yet has a calmness. I live in NYC. I love NYC, but it can get overwhelming sometimes and is far from as efficient and clean. The one thing that stood out during my stay in Tokyo was its efficiency and cleanliness. I've subscribed. I look forward to more videos of your journey. Congratulations.
Man you’ve made what I dream to do I discovered your channel with this video and yet I’m so happy for you!! Hope you’re having the time of your life, keep your positive energy man
Thank you for sharing your experience. Gonna follow your story for sure. I'll be heading on a similar journey on my own as well, but to Korea. Hope to get some insights from your journey as well. Enjoy it!
Watching this as I am sitting behind my desk at home again. I am pretty sure we landed around the same time last year in Tokyo because I remember that guy screaming at everyone to fill out the form during immigrating procedures. The only difference is that I was very very stressed because I had to catch a flight to Hokkaido. It's really fun to see these moments from another person's perspective and I think we have quite similar reactions. 9 months later, i hope you are still loving your time every day! Until when will you be in Japan ?
Just found your channel, i've been debating moving for a while now, when i finish school i plan on applying to some tutoring classes in Tokyo, My school staff has helped me a lot with this dream. best of luck to you, will be coming back to this channel.
I wish i have the same enthusiasm as you when going to japan. I always come to japan like twice a year. I have very good and bad experiences there. Enjoy japan!
tht was sooo nice of her to pick up up bro ... just subscribed and been thinking of moving there for there last 3 yrs so ill start checking out your content .. and maybe ask you some questions if thts ok , if not its cool i wish you the best of luck and we should do coffee there one day 💯
I really hope I get to do this one day. I’m also American (from Texas) and I am learning Japanese at home (とても難しい) Thank you for making this video! It inspires me to keep going. ありがとございます!
ive always wanted to study abroad in japan but i do game design at university and i dont think they have anything in japan, genuinely such a beautiful country i cant wait to see it whenever i do get to visit it
I really loved this video, it is very inspiring! I started to look into your channel as Duke is my dream school and I am applying in the fall, but this is very cool! Keep it going man.
