NOTIFICATION SQUAD: To miss Ryotaro’s ridiculous cameo in this video would be a crime.A super volcano, a billion dollar bear, a destroyed castle, horse sashimi and Smurfland; this was easily one of my favourite days from Journey Across Japan due to the sheer variety of amazing things we saw along the way. Any one of those things would be an interesting topic. I can’t believe our journey is almost over though, with just two videos to go!
For those of you wondering how I magically got from Fukuoka to Kumamoto, I did actually film the cycle in between, however during the trip I was fairly ill and as a result the video was pretty dreadful. I’ll reveal clips from it in my post-cycle wrap up video and talk about it a bit more there - it was a tough decision to take it out, but when I’m pouring a week into producing each video, I need to be happy with the content, and in between me coughing and complaining, I felt it wasn’t a day worth sharing.
Thanks again to all of you for being a part of this incredible never-ending journey - enjoy the video and Ryotaro’s cameo! It’s 3:32am and I’m off to bed before I implode.
Mkai
Abroad in Japan love you bro
Woo notification squad
Chris I never clicked so fast when a Notification showed up on my phone
didn't have notifications on and randomly checked just now .... must be a sign
Ryotoro speaking Japanese in a foreign accent.... I’m dead. 🤣
You mean Risottoro?
he stole even the japanese accent of brittish person...
the translation is completely wrong as well XD
LMAO also he's just saying useless stuff like "Kumamon is great"
hilarious! I also paused and replayed it immediately, and then enjoyed it again at the end of the video. I wonder what triggered this, though!
the Ryotoro scene got me wheezing😂😂 Im glad to see that Ryotoro's Japanese Rosetta Stone lessons are paying off!
RIGHT?!?!? I couldn't fuckin stop laughing
Ryotaro*
same with me it had me creaseing with laughter
@@Mia-in-Japan Priis terr me whai ?
Right!!!
Some Brit on his holiday: “I’m so hungry I could eat a horse”
Japanese chef: “Nani? Subarashii!”
Underrated comment🤣🤣🤣
Lol
BASASHI
eating hose is pretty common throughout Europe as well.
I’d eat grounded horse. Or cooked horse. :3
" i have to do it 'cause is TH-cam innit"
The most british vlogger attitude ever
Now we know what's been taking Chris so long to put these out. He's been horsing around.
He's made an ASS out of us all. I was MULEing over whether I should unsub or not. Then I realised Chris is a STALLION of a man, that deserves a view and like for his hard work and dedication to his craft.
HAHAHA 😂
TOO GOOD bruh ahahahaha
*drum sounds *
Now now, rein in the horse puns please.
Chris has improved to the point of being a TV quality travel show about Japan. Keep up the good work!
I'd say this series is wayyy above average TV quality. It's coherent in style and character. It has actual character :P. It's informative and entertaining. It has a very high production quality. You can not say this about most TV productions.
@@1989eol My thoughts exactly, it's really making me want to go, much more than any tourist-focussed show has ever done.
I come back to this after watching the new series. Fantastic quality.
@@1989eol I personally think that the production has that "Made for HD TV" quality but the personalities are much more informal while at the same time being generally informative. Unlike Travel TV which is more informational/sensationalist and is devoid of personal connection with the viewer, Chris's content gives the feeling of personal interaction with the viewer and an informal "the life of me and my friends" feeling in addition to the professional quality production and informative nature. It makes you feel like you, the viewer, are experiencing a tiny bit of what they are experiencing and that's what makes Chris' channel and the work of him and all of his guests remarkable for me.
I almost wished I've never studied Japanese after hearing Ryotaro's "speech"...
XD the subtitles said alot more than he did
It's even better if you knew them tbh. That's why our beloved sarcastic brits put em there 🤣
@@senalagatta5300 Thank you. I studied Japanese(Hard) for 6 months and I thought the subtitles said a lot more than he did. Thanks for the confirmation and reassuring my LOL it was what I thought it was. Comedic genius.
@@MrBoDiggety You don't need to study Japanese for 6 months to know that what was being spoken was completely different from what was subtitled... :P
@@Swashbuckler9x 12:20
I don't want this series to end!! 😢Go back up the other coast when you're done.
CZsWorld Easily the best Japan related video series on youtube ever.
Agreed, I'm single and I need this kind of sarcasm in my life to keep me going.
Amen
And hopefully he doesn't have too many guests who know nothing about japan.
They don't help me learn much about the country and take away from the interesting experience I will probably never have.
Every time he brings a guest they go eat out at a restaurant and my eyes just roll over and pop out their sockets. It's so frikken boring.
Give me castle tours and historical footnotes about volcanoes any day over another yawn fest meal with X person who just flew in on the last discount flight that still costs a fortune.
@Mad Hatter in jeans You do realize you don't have to watch if it bores you, right? People like to watch the food stuff because the culinary discovery is interesting to them. Between this comment and your moronic vegan meltdown above, you're coming across as quite obnoxious.
Kumamon ga dai suki des:
"We anticipate his contribution to the economy will continue to grow longterm"
*Japanese*
Ryotoro speaking Japanese in a foreign accent has completely killed me 😂😂😂
me 2... rofl
RIP then
Also the captions being completely off what he was actually saying got me!
He sounds like Christopher Walkin
@@ArsenicApplejuice I thought so too! It caught me completely off-guard!
WHY DOES RYOTARO SOUND LIKE JAPANESE CHRISTOPHER WALKEN? 🤣 Also, bang up job on the translation 👍
Guys, guys, we need more horse bell!
I don't know much Japanese, but I knew enough to understand that the words he spoke didn't add up to what the subtitles said
I know very little Japanese, but these three sentences were so simple I understood them completely...
Omg yes i hear it too🤣😂
@@calebcomet1868 ''Kumamon is from kumamoto, kumamon is great, i love kumamon'' Is what he said
Ahhh horse meat , a delicacy in both Komamoto and Tesco
😂😂😂
Had to retract my upvote, for tradition
yes burger king
Also, Uzbekistan and most Russian countries it's super common 🤷♂️
and Argentina and Sicily
Ryotaro doing the fake Japanese voice thing... I'm dead. 😂
Japanese Christopher Walken
I love how Ryotoro is just saying "Kumamon came from Kumamoto. Kumamon is cool. I really like Kumamon" but the subtitles say some ACTUAL information. It's so hilarious!!
Not me stumbling across this video in 2023 and then thinking "There's no way he's saying what is on the subtitles." 😭😭😭😭
Ah ty!
There's nothing wrong with horse meat I love it. What makes me laugh people who get upset about horse meat but eat sheep beef pork ect
It's just that it's quite taboo in places. Different cultures have different foods that are taboo. Although I do agree with you that the anger is stupid. We eat pigs, which are some of the most intelligent animals on the planet, and we eat cows and chickens and sheep which are still conscious and have emotions and experience pain yet we eat them and they are often stuck in bad conditions. It's really just pathetic.
I mean I get some people saying that eating rare or undomesticated animals is wrong, kind of, but horses are domesticated. There’s a ton of horses around the world. Eating basashi is just wrong for me cuz it tastes waaaaay better when cooked.
@Harry S idk if you meant it in the way i interpreted it, but it just rubbed me the wrong way. i mean there's a difference between eating horse meat and eating other exotic animals. horses are domesticated and there are plenty of them. eating endangered animals is something completely different. it's why eating venison and bugs are completely different than eating wolf or lion meat
@Harry S Found the radical vegan. Seriously, what I eat is my business.
@@User-1939t9 yes thats right. Eating domesticated animals is way different than eating other animals because there is an act of mutualism between us and them. Some people are biased against them and it's actually natural to do so.
It is definitely very painful to watch but they should still respect other people's diet.
“I interviewed a Japanese Mascot Expert...”
I BET it’s Ryotoro
*Ryotoro appears onscreen*
hahaha Same
He had me in tears
LMAO all he was saying was the bear is great and he likes him xD dyyyying
Kumamon wa DAISUKE desu!
What do you mean? It's clearly Takeshi Satoshi, celebrated *Japanese Mascot Expert*.
Any time I hear "from an expert" I know it's gonna be a Ryotoro masterpiece.
Expert:
Accent thief
Spokesman
Shotgun cast
3rd opinion
It is such an amazing moment when you understand what Ryotaro was really saying and then read the false subtitles and be like: WHAT? It's utterly hilarious 😂
Yay thank god I’m a weeb
That threw me off so bad XD
Love your profile picture, could you share it with me please?
What did he say
@@quad7685 he just said
"Kumamon is amazing
I love kumamon"
This is the only channel I've actually got the notification bell turned on for... And rightfully so!
You're everything I've ever wanted in a viewer. God speed.
One might say your enthusiasm is 'unbridled' lulz
have you seen videos by " 李子柒 Liziqi " ? If not you should check it out they're quite blissful
@@Sheidow You're right, thanks for the recommendation! Her channel reminds me of this video, which also radiates serenity in my opinion: th-cam.com/video/wGqFFcAaTn8/w-d-xo.html
Hahahaha actually fking same 😆
*One of the biggest and most active volcanoes in Japan, clearly a very big threat*
Let's name it Mount Cat.
Seems pretty apt to me:
Fine....Fine...Dormant...Fine...3AM DEATH AND DESTRUCTION...Fine...
No, the peak is called 根子, not 猫.
Nekoyama... Agreed!
The horse emoji killed me. Like he really needed you to understand that he has six horses, like the animal.
Ryotaro: *Steals another accent from God knows where*
Chris: *"Ah shit! Here we go again."*
Lmao underrated
Risottaro's Japanese has really gone downhill since spending more time with Chris!
Oh my god, Ryotaro's cameo in this may have been the funniest thing on this channel yet.
That Takeshi Satoshi guy looks familiar...
That is so racist. Not all Japanese people look alike.
@@akba666 WTF?
akba666 you want some attention, buddy?
@@akba666 how tf is that racist?
@@brettshair3151 You guys, he's joking. Calm down.
I remember eating Horse meat. Unfortunately it was in a Burger King in stoke and not a restaurant in Kumamoto but it still counts.
LukeL7 The good ole days of horse meat scandals
I had it in lasagne...didn't noticed it 🤔
Big up Stoke! Well I'm like 10 minutes from Uttoxeter but been Stoke plenty of times lmao
@Goorpijp Wessel
Here in Northern Germany (and some other parts of the country) it was (and still is) quite popular as well. Not an everyday meat, but eaten sometimes. I never thought it was "weird" to eat horse...
@Goorpijp Wessel that's why we were outraged, we were lied to.
6:40
"kumamon wa sugoi desu ne"
omfg
Kumamon ga daisuki desu
Lolol I understood what you both typed, what has anime turned me into xD
I reached that part in the video ITS SO FUNNY HAHAHAH
@@xyz2001xyzpart of why its hilarious, he used the exact phrases everyone know from anime and it sends me rolling to actually hear him say it.
And the subtitles being different make me wheeze.
Takeshi Satoshi brilliant said, no doubt he's an expert...
"which looks like it's been in a recent battle"
It has, with the *earth*
And it lost.
Ryotaro's words about Kumamon were so eloquent, it nearly brought me to tears.
くまモンは熊本から来ました
くまモンはすごいですね
あ... くまモンが大好きです
Kumamon came from Kumamoto.
Kumamon is amazing.
Uhh...I love Kumamon.
I didn't realize Chris put the real translation at the end😅
Here in Italy, horse meat has always been a super common thing, both raw and cooked, I'm quite surprised it sounds like something new for so many people!
yea wait do you live here
It's also eaten in Germany, but I don't really like it. It's too sweet for my taste. We also don't eat it raw.
@@Hitsugix We don't eat it 'raw' per se here aswell, the most common way to eat it, it's as an air-dried salted version called "Bresaola" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bresaola long story short, it goes through a similar process as ham, hence why it's so popular.
@@Hitsugix Remember
the Lasagne
scandel in Germany
@@DatBlockSG I remember it, though the scandal was more about not declaring the horse meat on the packaging, because people could not avoid the horse meat this way. It was more like mixing animal products into vegan food and not telling anybody.
You need your own Netflix series or something. This is really brilliant! You make me actually want to do the JET programme
Netflix shows are piss poor.
5:15 "I find myself coming face to face with a slightly unnerving character, who's quickly gone on to become Japan's most ubiquitous and wealthiest mascot" Was expecting Ryotaro...
Just wanna say, Matsumoto castle interior is actually one of the few that I really enjoyed very much and I didn't feel like it was overly renovated. Sure there are exhibits up there but it's all in all a beautiful, wooden structure with the same, sweet narrow stairs you just can't help but stumble on.
Quick rundown on some castles I've visited:
Worst interior-wise was probably Hiroshima, it is literally a modern media library (but content was good and exterior nice).
Osaka is (including exterior) all concrete but has good views.
Nagoya didn't get to see interiors, think they are still closed off, overall nothing too special.
Kanazawa's interior was renovated but with so many buildings, all VERY interesting, and exterior widespread and absolutely fabulous. Also nearby a beautiful garden, probably one of the best I've visited in Japan.
Himeji interior was alright, exterior top notch, but the city is kind of awkward with that central road to the castle blasted with shops, but the streets right behind straight up dead, with only one temple up the road on the right that I really quite liked.
Matsumoto however hit all the marks IMO. Beautiful castle in as best of an historical state as you can get, with the majority of the exhibits in the nearby museum, and there are quite a few nice places throughout the city. Rest of the city is also pretty cool, just perfect for it's size, Matsumoto was probably the city I felt the most comfortable in so far.
Good to know, I've been wanting to see some authentic interiors so I now know what to put on my list for my travel plans.
Risottaro's the best expert ever, such eloquence, much knowledge!
Most people: "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse"
Chris: "Raw horse meat is fine, but cooked horse meat is better."
Some people: *Triggered*
Vegan/horse-lover logic: "YOU ARE EATING DEAD ANIMALS OBVIOUSLY I SHALL NOW TORTURE AND MURDER YOU - CLEARLY I AM THE MORALLY SUPERIOR PERSON HERE!"
I'm vegetarian and love horses and still don't get the twisted logic of someone who'd say such a thing.
I don't believe in harming innocent defenseless plants, so I only eat meat.
@@Christian-rn1ur ROFL... your comment made my day!
@@Christian-rn1ur But you feed even more plants to the animals you eat. Try again.
Those small dome homes remind me of Goku and Chi-Chi's house in Dragon Ball Z.
me too, or something bulma would would live in.
Or West City
yay I'm not the only one who thought that too ^_^
Yeah, the capsule houses from DB
@@FusionKush it may not be a coincidence that Kumamoto is on the west most part of Japan then, it might be insparation
Risotaro killed me!
PS: Full dialogue below.
R: クマモンハ熊本カラ来マシタ
R (Eng): Kumamon came from Kumamoto
S: Kumamon's ubiquity and widespread demographic appeal have been instrumental to his success
R: クマモンハスゴイデスネ？！
R (Eng): Isn't Kumamon great?
S: His macroeconomic impact across the region has been significant
R: クマモンガ大好キデス
R (Eng): I really like Kumamon
S: and we anticipate his contribution to the economy will continue to grow long term
British humor
Welcome to my home town, Kumamoto! Chris!!
I've been studying English with your funny videos,
and I'd been really looking forward to watching this video since I'd known this journey.
tbh, I really laughed at Ryot... TAKESHI SATOSHI's horrible
explanation about Kumamon with excellent subs,
but then I remembered the reason why you had to postpone this video:(
Anyway, thank you for mentioning about the earthquake.
It was terrible experience but the disaster made Kumamoto castle special, just like you described.
We have not only volcano and historical structures but also beautiful sea and islands(Amakusa).
I hope you guys to come Kumamoto too.
tnks!!!!
tosh Thank you for sharing! You’re English is really great! Keep up the great work!
Your English is excellent :)
Keep on studying! Your English is amazing!
Love the interview section. Perfect translation. 10/10.
They look like homes in DragonBall Z.
But those have multiple rooms
Capsule Corp earning it's money
@@Mew178 I was thinking the same lol
What if their houses can also be turned into capsules? Japan really is living in the future.
Capsule Corp Village!
Ryotoro's scene literally was so funny! speaking in a foreign accent and the captions got me wheezing lmao!
Chris "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse" Broad.
I keep coming back just to watch 6:37
Excellent job Ryotaro, and the subbing is perfect XD
Why do I feel like Chris had him at gun-point while saying that?
LMAO Ryotoro doing an American accent in Japanese! The funny thing is, it's the same accent as if an American was trying to speak in Spanish lolol it's in the vowels
Not only the vowels, the consonants as well. Like the R
It's almost like both accents are imitating the same linguistic group
Who is Ryotoro
and when us Spanish speakers try to speak Japanese we actually sound pretty good. confirmed from a Japanese friend of mine who is always brutally honest.
@@athfdrizzle of course, we share the same syllables. Still there are few that we need to learn like shi し、tsu つ、za ざ that do not exist in spanish

Ok ok... i'll rein in my unbridled enthusiasm for horse puns. I just couldn't stop jockeying for a laugh.
I laughed, but not furlong
Stop horsing around
I say thee neigh !
He just took that joke and rode with it.
It looks more like dragon Ball houses, than Smurfs
or the The Flintstones ones
Planet Namek houses
I can't unsee it now!
Darn you, I said the same thing, lol!
Sort of reminds me of the hobbits' burrows
omg!!i died watching ryotaro speaking japanese in foreign accent!!! hahah i kept rewinding to that clip!
That kind of wiggled my brain.
"he's also quite hot"
Chris is a furry, confirmed
"Don't touch him on a sunny day" It's obvious that Chris has been burned before...
Kumamon wa sugoi desu ne?
Kumamon ga daisuki desu!
I´m laughing so hard XD
Totally not what he said if you read the subtitles.
It's properly subtitled at the very end
Who was that again
Kumamon wa kumamoto kara kimashita!
"I'll see you again tomorrow"..........4 weeks later and counting. One of the very best channels on TH-cam.
Ryotaro sounded like a Japanese Christopher Walken
Ryotaro's cameo gave me PTSD flashbacks of my intensive Japanese classes
Takeshi Satoshi sounds like a very wise person, knows a lot about Kumamon and it's origin story. Sad that it is only an interview, would love to see more of him in future episodes.
Japan: *eats horse meat*
Tescos: "It's free real estate"
"it's not rery surprise that I eat it" - Chris
Oh geez, his Engrish getting really good now.
SHOTS FIRED 😂
Another great video Chris! I really love the editing and presentation of your videos, even something as simple as that transition at 2:43 I can appreciate. You need a Netflix series or something, the quality and effort put into these videos are top notch.
Deserved a like because of Kumamon Mascot Expert!
The horse farmers went : waitaminuet DINNER TIME 🤣
I just love the 'misinterpretation' of Ryotaro's Kumamon speech LOL
日本人で熊本に住んでる者です
凄く丁寧に熊本を紹介していて嬉しい
During ww1, ww2 & until the 1970s horse meat was actually widely eaten in the usa (sometimes unknowingly). It was known as "the poor man's beef" & is still widely sold in the us but for dog & cat consumption
You can thank 1970s Australia for sending the USA plenty of horse mixed with a bit of rabbit packed as beef..... made plenty of money sending fake beef to the country who always order the absolute junk grade beef for their burgers which they would then load with herbs to disguise the fact it was from a cow that would have dropped dead on its own within 2 weeks.
6:37 Japanese language is so rich and able to express complex ideas in a couple of words. くまモンが大好き!
Until you really put くまモンが大好き into translator and found out he says totally different things
That sentence itself explains the effect of kumamon in the global economy
60-80% of Japanese words are of Chinese origin. They hate that.
@@asherouk7308 😂😊😘
くまモンはすごいですね
yea you can find similar ways of how they use words in other Asian countries
I love how that commenter takes other people eating horses in another country instead as- they are about to lay siege to your farm to steal and eat your horses?! xDDDD
Hahahah, exactly what I thought. You don't see cow owning farmers bursting into steakhouses and angrily threatening people that if they eat his cows he'll kill them and feed them to the fish, so why in the world does that person believe that Chris wants to steal and eat his horses?
Hahaha i love the subtitles for Ryotaro's cameo compared to what he actually is saying in his completely native sounding Japanese. Good work there. haha.
I am constantly amazed at the quality of the content on this channel. Cheers to Chris and everyone involved!
People are ridiculous. cows are cute, cuddly, fun megafauna but we still eat them no problem. Pigs too, they're pets and food in the US. The only reason we didn't eat horse was because it was too valuable to waste, but then people got emotionally attached
I agree that they shouldn't judge other people's eating diets, but it is understandable why one feels disturbed by it.
Unlike cows, pigs, chicken etc, horses are domesticated animals that helps humans in an act of mutualism. It is completely natural to feel disturbed by seeing another person eat an animal that helped you.
Another scenario similar to this is a predator attacking your dog, although the predator is just naturally hunting your dog to survive, it is natural for you to still attack the predator and protect your dog. It isn't about the circle of life but an act of mutualism.
@@Marnige People did the exact same thing with cows, using them to pull plows and drag carts and it didn't stop them from eating them. Horses aren't anything special like dogs or cats when it comes to human companionship, historically they're used for labor and are eaten just like any other domesticated farm animal.
@@wilsondesmond8022 it is way common for horses to be used even till today, cows are rarely used.
@@Marnige Horses haven't had a real widespread usage for anything other than hobbies and competitions. It's not like butchering horses doesn't have a historical or even modern precedence, horse meat isn't considered out of the ordinary at all in most of Europe and Asia. The only two major places where it's majorly taboo is the UK and the US.
@@Marnige yeah m8 with the tractors and other shit being made cows are pretty much only useful for milk cheese butter and meat. Don't know why people're like don't eat beef they helped in the ricefields like we have tractors chill.
Ryotaro’s scene was too funny 😂 They even got the camera angle down when doing an interview of someone
Meanwhile at Fukuoka... Ellen can be found wandering around, still searching for the airport which was vaguely pointed out by her rude tour guide...
I just watched the first 27 videos of this playlist over the day while sipping about 5+ liters of tee. It was one of the best days since a long time.

i refuse to eat it but anyone who is getting mad about the horse meat you do realize you eat cows and chickens you dummies, how many farmers have *You* pissed off?
@@justinbest9429 not everyone is ignorant! Stop being so chicken
Merby Kribmath : Nice one
I would eat your poonani raw and you would love it.
Subscribed 🤣
It’s not quite the same as eating cow, although I do see your point. Horses, especially in the UK, are loved and kept as pets. It’s a bit like eating dog and cats, it’s a bit...wrong. But hey, I’m not bothered by other people eating it in different countries; it’s apart of their culture after all.
Archie vs Cancer Exactly, I personally love horses but just as many other things, eating horses is apart of a large culture of people.
I have this channel playing in the background while being in my depressing 9-5 office office job and you have no idea how much it takes me out of my misery :)

In my home town there used to be a lead smelting foundry, and they would send out alerts when sulphur trioxide and carbon monoxide were released into the air. Close your windows and don't go outside sort of deal. It has long since closed down.

You have one of the most interesting channels on TH-cam and also some of the best edited Videos I have seen, even compared to Television. My friends and me watch your channel religiously, hyping up ourselves for the travel to Japan at the end of this year. Thank you so much for your hard work and the entertainment! Say... does that Table smashing game still exist? I desperately need to try it!
I love horses. I would never eat one.
...without salt and pepper.
*Gordon Ramsey has entered the chat*
Don't forget a little soy sauce
you would if you got hungry enough... most things we began eating began out of necessity and survival
I prefer a little worcestershire sauce or maybe A1 steak sauce.
