What a splendid day indeed full of exceptional burgers and stunning views. Even though it sounds like I'm about to have an actual heart attack at 5:22.
I always knew you were gay, Chris. :D In case the part about your boyfriend was just a joke that went over my head; I always knew you were straight, Chris. :D
Your the best tour guide Chris Experiencing the joys of the climb like those who are there for the first time Besides you got a burger out of the deal, I think you came out on top lol Thank you for the adventure, Be safe and Take care until the next one (^=W=^)
It's so nice of you to highlight lesser channels on your vlog, Sharla. And I'm impressed by your patience - they say don't work with children or animals in show business, but you took on both in one episode. Well done.
You always leave comments in all of the videos I watch, lol. I though for a while it was just kpop related videos but now I see you here and I have seen you leave comments on Taylor's video's as well. I always love it when I look down in the comments and see you there, lol.
We need more Sharla and Chris adventures. They are very entertaining! I guess we'll get more now that they're in the same town I hope😊 We also need more Sharla and Norm adventures please Sharla!
Cracks me up every time he tries to add the “Subscribe to Abroad in……” then it’s the block from Sharla!!! 😂. Hilarious That was a very beautiful place. Would love to visit there some day.
Watching this after Sharla's video :3 AAAAAAAAAAA I've always shipped you guys together and now, knowing you two are dating, just makes my heart so happy. I love you both.
Watching this knowing Sharla and Chris were/are now dating, it hits different lol Also I've always wanted to go to Japan in spring, but now I'm wanting to go in autumn 🍂🍁
It's so crazy!!! Also we planned to go to Japan in spring but after Rona we have done a lot more research and it seems fall is considered the best on average.
you know, all his banter aside. Chris seems like a genuinely good friend. I would love to spend a day hiking with him and having him show me the best food places.
Chris: I hope you have your hiking shoes on. Sharla: I don't. I enjoy a lot of things about your content, one of which is your consistency in being slightly under equipped for possible outdoor/physical activity on occasion.
I've been there and I'd say that as long as the weather's dry and there's no ice or snow on the steps, any comfortable flat shoe will do! But it's so steep, it does take a LOT of energy.
I really enjoy you and Chris hosting together. It is like the ideal. Both of you are so informative and you have good working chemistry. He makes you laugh. But you help tone down his crazy. You ground him while he lifts you up. It is a beautiful friendship and a great team for a travel show. Thank you for such good content!
Just came here from the Sharla Chris dating reveal and the video is twice as fun when looking at it as a date! Love you both and wish you the absolute best.
when this video came out I was thinking „oh man I wish they were dating, they would make an awesome (and gorgeous) couple“ and now I‘m rewatching it after your announcement knowing you’ve actually been dating at that time 😭 I’ve never been that happy for two strangers in my life!! hope you never stop making each other the happiest❤️
Like you, I'm re-watching videos of them together in the last 4 years or so and confirmed that he always made her laugh and they always had that chemistry. But of course, I didn't bother commenting on it on the videos because who am I to push my agenda on them. But I guess we just saw the truth right through! I'm sooooo soooo happy for both of them, my heart is bursting with joy for them.
I think we just witnessed a new "Journey Across Japan series: Staircase to heart attack", well done Chris. I love this location another spot i would like to visit someday, thanks for sharing Sharla.
Damn it I don't swoon over celebrities dating at all I can't stop smiling at all these videos now that we all know. Always knew in my heart but it hits different now that it's official
Just watched Chris’s video where he says “I’m not a fan of cats” and then he immediately points one out to Sharla. Lol. And I love that he acts all cranky but Carrie’s her purse part way up the hill. 💖
Your channel has totally helped me virtually travel to Japan for the last few years. I majored in Japanese and finally had planned a trip when the borders closed. Let's just say when things do finally open up your vids are basically the itinerary!
LOVE ❤❤ WHEN YOU TWO ARE TOGETHER!! Sharla, sooo happy you are back in Japan healthy and able to explore new places!! AND the vibe and energy is so different than Chris' other channels. Sharla has an awesome way to bring out the best in Chris. And maybe vise versa:) 🌠
The cross overs are so great for us viewing when y’all get to have a visit. The humor of friends that just get each other is such a compliment to the beautiful travel vlogs, thank you!
LMAOO yeah i always wanted to comment about their lovely chemistry on their videos but there were always party poopers saying they were uncomfortable with us shipping them, but the ship is sailing beautifully 🥰
Sharla thank you for making these videos, you help me and so many through this otherwise really hard time. Watching your videos makes me feel less lonely. I appreciate you, keep it up ♥
This is the video that convinced me 100% that you both were together, the way you were both trying not to act like a couple funny even tho I had an idea for a long time
Who else is here bc this got recommended to them since last week’s Q&A? Really dope location. I love mountains and great views, and the views in and around yamadera temple look amazing. And a camera can only do so much to do them justice, so I gotta go see the views in person
I love how Chris said Connor is his boyfriend 😂 I would never have thought Chris would make a joke like that, it's usually Connor or Joey that would make flirty jokes with their homies but never Chris 😂
Damn, Sharla's going to be raking in the advertisement cash from everyone going back to the Chris videos. If only Yamadera actually got more visitors than Sharla's old video. Oh well. Weebs gotta weeb...
@@citycultivator2101 Agreed, i mean he is free to in his own mind. But let them be, and dont pressure people into anything they would not otherwise do. Am i right?
Looking forward to seeing a video like this now that you guys have gone public. A nice walk somewhere, please! Japan is so beautiful and I love your vlogging style, so easy to watch Sharla. Maybe in autumn when it's a bit cooler ? 😂
This is just a good video, but then DLC was unlocked when Sharla revealed that she's been dating Chris for a while, and suddenly a new set of feelings come out of the video. On a side note, I wonder how many people believed Chris when he said he's only been to Fledged Burger once with his boyfriend CDawgVA LMAO
Woo, just in time for breakfast! It's so glad getting to see you explore and enjoy the country again, and I've always really loved mountain temples! They're always so beautiful, and Yamadera Temple is no exception!
Chris gave it away, since the beginning I could sense a different vibe from him when he was with Sharla vs other female friends, Sharla is very lucky that her man treats her like that🥰
What a splendid day indeed full of exceptional burgers and stunning views.
Even though it sounds like I'm about to have an actual heart attack at 5:22.
Don't worry Chris, that is one of the byproducts having too much drip.
Chris you are looking great in that jacket.
I always knew you were gay, Chris. :D In case the part about your boyfriend was just a joke that went over my head; I always knew you were straight, Chris. :D
Your the best tour guide Chris

Be quiet Chris! 😡
Who else is watching this after Sharla’s recent Q&A video?🥰
MEEEE
Def
Yaayyy!
🤣💕😄
So Connor still Chris BF?
It's so nice of you to highlight lesser channels on your vlog, Sharla. And I'm impressed by your patience - they say don't work with children or animals in show business, but you took on both in one episode. Well done.
Really hope that abroad channel takes off now
Chris is a legend.
Oh God, I kinda feel bad for Chris now but absolutely hilarious 😂😂
Chris's playful nature has been apart of his success on his own Channel which has over 2 million subscribers.
hahahahahaha poor Dave!
I love how Chris always yells "subscribe to AbroadInJapan" and Sharla always cuts the video off 😂😂😂
Always one of my fav things that happens when they get together LOL!!
I was just about to say 🤣
So it's a reoccurring thing, you say
You always leave comments in all of the videos I watch, lol. I though for a while it was just kpop related videos but now I see you here and I have seen you leave comments on Taylor's video's as well. I always love it when I look down in the comments and see you there, lol.
Sharla whispering "idiot" as Chris charges up the stairs
Simple exasperation~ She calls him out as soon as she gets up there anyway~
It's almost as if they're ..... but nah
Lol that was great
@@absolutless seriously people are so weird with this shipping shit. Especially since we know that Chris has Connor as his boyfriend
🤣
We now know that Chris' no.1 view in Japan is actually Sharla.
"Most importantly, there's a cat over here." Chris knows what Sharla and her subscribers really want 😂 always love videos with both of you!!
...and right after he released a video apologizing for being the presenter of a cats of Japan documentary.
@@Jyiber in which he explained that he’s very allergic to cats 😂
[Pointing at diagram map] "And the cat is here." - cat icon appears on screen.
No video is complete without a cat.
@@cececola Who are you saying "no" to, and why?
This video's stock went up 500% after the Chris Broad Reveal video
Loved that Chris finally admitted that Connor is his boyfriend.
🤣 Now I got to watch the video ASAP!
@@littlebigkicker oh do you i could have never guessed
Yoooo I need timestamp
@@littlebigkicker Yes it obviously is XDD
A harem with Vtubers with Mousey as queen with his consort, Christ
We need more Sharla and Chris adventures. They are very entertaining! I guess we'll get more now that they're in the same town I hope😊
We also need more Sharla and Norm adventures please Sharla!
WELL NOW WE KNOW THEYRE DATIBT WE HOPEFULLY WILL WHEEEEE
Everyone peacefully enjoying the shrine.
Suddenly man bursting up the stairs like he's seeking sanctuary from the demons chasing him.
He's running away from Amazon 1 star reviews
It's not comfirmed that Ryotaro is _actually_ a demon... not yet
Love how we all are here rewatching their old videos ❤ hope they make more content together now 💕🥰
Yeah, I feel like Im watching a K drama with these 2
Chris: more importantly a cat
Sharla: 👀‼️🐱
And Chris just posting the same day about the documentary he was in about cats in Japan
Even when he’s with Sharla, even when he’s not on his own channel, Chris still manages to joke about Ryotaro’s age
How old is Ryotaro?
@@aaronbernath3554 44+ I think
Who pronounces his name correctly? Sharla or Chris?
@@foodtravellife88 Sharla is closer. Her Japanese is far, far better than Chris'.
Ludicrous
Cracks me up every time he tries to add the “Subscribe to Abroad in……” then it’s the block from Sharla!!! 😂. Hilarious That was a very beautiful place. Would love to visit there some day.
It makes me laugh every time 😁
Watching this after Sharla's video :3 AAAAAAAAAAA I've always shipped you guys together and now, knowing you two are dating, just makes my heart so happy. I love you both.
ME TOO IM REWATCHIBG THIS FOR THE CHEMISTRY HEE HEE
i said the same!
I also had my suspicions here when I watched it first hehe
Saaaaammeeeeeeeeee omggg
He was carrying her backpack for part of the video too 😢SO PRECIOUS! lol
The youtube algorithm literally saying, "Now that you know those two lovely folks were dating for a bit, see these videos again in a new light!"
same here. came here after watching their relationship confirmation video
POV: you’re watching this video after Sharla’s recent Q&A and saying to yourself; “I knew all along”.
Watching this knowing Sharla and Chris were/are now dating, it hits different lol
Also I've always wanted to go to Japan in spring, but now I'm wanting to go in autumn 🍂🍁
haha right! im like i need to see all their past videos again from a new light
It's so crazy!!!
Also we planned to go to Japan in spring but after Rona we have done a lot more research and it seems fall is considered the best on average.
Theyre so cute!!!!
you know, all his banter aside. Chris seems like a genuinely good friend. I would love to spend a day hiking with him and having him show me the best food places.
It must feel so nice to be able to go travelling after the quarantine, great vid!
VERY :D
yes, it is so cool to see them together again!
Chris took his boyfriend Cdawg and his gf to the same restaurant
Chris: I hope you have your hiking shoes on.
Sharla: I don't.
I enjoy a lot of things about your content, one of which is your consistency in being slightly under equipped for possible outdoor/physical activity on occasion.
lmao that was such a good comment lmao!
Any girl ever on a date lmao
I've been there and I'd say that as long as the weather's dry and there's no ice or snow on the steps, any comfortable flat shoe will do! But it's so steep, it does take a LOT of energy.
The plastic bag on the day out with Quinlan was a hoot a while back. Nevertheless, Sharla is always up for the adventure so much credit to her!
@@henrik1743 U speak truth!
Even TH-cam knows which vid to recommend after the announcement 👀
This is the second or third time I've seen Chris do that "Old Man" filter, and here in the natural lighting it looks really realistic.
Thanks for the explanation!
I just thought that they had randomly interviewed a cheeky old man that they had met at the summit there! 😆
He seems to love doing it on videos now lol
His raspy voice change and pause really made it realistic.
11:33 It's incredibly realistic
I thought it was his father.
I really enjoy you and Chris hosting together. It is like the ideal. Both of you are so informative and you have good working chemistry. He makes you laugh. But you help tone down his crazy. You ground him while he lifts you up. It is a beautiful friendship and a great team for a travel show. Thank you for such good content!
They should make out!!

@@WanderingSabahan watch Sharla‘s newest Q&A video! 😊
I think we just witnessed a new "Journey Across Japan series: Staircase to heart attack", well done Chris. I love this location another spot i would like to visit someday, thanks for sharing Sharla.
It's funny now knowing what we know and watching these with fresh eyes that this is a lovely place for a date!
Y'all literally went at the perfect time, the scenery is STUNNING
Isn't it incredible!!!! 🍃
It really was magical, almost romantic save for Chris' presence lol.
Who is that in your pfp?
WHEN YOU THINK THEY'RE JUST GOOD FRIENDS THEN SHARLA DROPS THE BOMB
Wow. Chris seemed so laid back in this video. This was very pleasant and calming to watch.
Right? It was like he was being a normal human being! It was great!
This is just what Chris acts like in other people’s videos 😂
lmao YT recommending me this video again after Sharla's QnA. Of course there's already tons of people in the comments xD
Whos here after Sharla announced they were dating??
ME! lol
I LOVE the fact, that Chris has got, both a girlfriend AND a boyfriend!! :-D Lucky him! :-D :-D :-D
Gee I wonder why this video is suddenly in my FYP 🤣🤣🤣
Who else decided to watch again after the announcement 🙋♀
Just jumping on the wagon to comment Chris exudes "let me be a big goof in front of my girlfriend" energy
This hits different coming from Sharla's latest QnA
I love how Chris carried her bag. What a gentleman.
Damn it I don't swoon over celebrities dating at all
I can't stop smiling at all these videos now that we all know. Always knew in my heart but it hits different now that it's official
Chris carrying Sharla’s backpack was adorable 😻
He's her boyfriend!!!! 😍😍😍
Came back to watch this video after the announcement they are dating. Was this a romantic get away🥰?? So happy for two of my favorite TH-camrs!
Just watched Chris’s video where he says “I’m not a fan of cats” and then he immediately points one out to Sharla. Lol. And I love that he acts all cranky but Carrie’s her purse part way up the hill. 💖
I wonder if they have had a secret romance, maybe.

We really watched you guys going on a date and we didn't know huh? 😂😂
Now at 8:00 with Chris carrying Sharla's bag is such a sweet boyfriend thing to do
Aww..i love it every time Chris is trying to make Sharla smile or laugh. He's awkward 🤣
Chris is so much less sarcastic in Sharla's video
He's quite affable, when he'd dropping the asshole persona.
The chemistry has always been killa, we all knew in our hearts
"Stop it guys, they're not a couple"
Oh how the turntables..
LMAOO yeah i always wanted to comment about their lovely chemistry on their videos but there were always party poopers saying they were uncomfortable with us shipping them, but the ship is sailing beautifully 🥰
Coming back to this video after the Q&A video... Awwww 🤭
12:44 I love how he described Connor as his boyfriend without a second thought
The Bromance is real... to real. lol
@@BDunback Why limit it to a bromance though?
@@sophiecharron5186 Because Conner is more into milfs than men :P
@@JoyandSerenity. one doesn't stop the other.
@@sophiecharron5186 I mean,you normally don't refer to men as "mother".
I love the vibes on this video, a bit different than their usual interactions with each other. Turns out they are dating !!!!!!!!!
YES
Sharla thank you for making these videos, you help me and so many through this otherwise really hard time. Watching your videos makes me feel less lonely. I appreciate you, keep it up ♥
This is the video that convinced me 100% that you both were together, the way you were both trying not to act like a couple funny even tho I had an idea for a long time
Oh you managed to get Chris out of that beautiful dream like studio of he's 😄
Back here after hearing the lovely news that you two are dating
The music in your videos is always top notch, but I really, _really_ dug the tune you played during the burger shop scene.
Ah yay! Had that one saved for a while and finally found a scene I thought it worked for :D
@@sharlainjapan we need names Sharla!
now that I know they’re together, this video makes my heart swim!! 🧡
Lol the coin scene.
Sharla: what the hell?
Chris: shut up
Great video, Sharla! These views are so stunning! 😍🍂
With the recent news i see this video with different eyes :-)
... and i'm happy for you two. Congratulations!
Such a beautiful place, and you and Chris get along so well; I love the banter ❤️
Who else is here bc this got recommended to them since last week’s Q&A?
Really dope location. I love mountains and great views, and the views in and around yamadera temple look amazing. And a camera can only do so much to do them justice, so I gotta go see the views in person
I love how Sharla always playfully cuts Chris off at the end XD it's nice to see ppl have good friendships like that still~
That moment when Chris refers to Connor as his boyfriend and you can't tell if it's a joke or not.
I love how Chris said Connor is his boyfriend 😂 I would never have thought Chris would make a joke like that, it's usually Connor or Joey that would make flirty jokes with their homies but never Chris 😂
Me watching this 7 months later and she has confirmed they are indeed dating!!!!!!!!
So nice of Chris to carry her bag for her halfway up the mountain :)
haha, he's such a gentleman 😂 it helps him work off all of the chicken he has been eating in his new studio
Well well well
Damn, Sharla's going to be raking in the advertisement cash from everyone going back to the Chris videos. If only Yamadera actually got more visitors than Sharla's old video. Oh well. Weebs gotta weeb...
Trueeee, all the old videos are gonna get a boost! 💴💸💰
Sharla and Chris are such a good combination
Edit: Please don't ship real people
@@plantboi7746 Don't ship real people.

@@plantboi7746 I'm sorry the comments hurt your feelies. Go do your homework, child.
Yeah they are. But everyone knows Chris and Connor are the ship, not Chris and Sharla.
Watching this again after sharla's Q and A and knowing Chris is here boyfriend, makes me think.....so connor is the thirdwheel.
It is eerily weird how well being an old man suits Chris Oo
There is a whole new vibe to this video now that it's come to light that they are a couple
Chris voluntarily sprinting up the steep stairs is a good indicator that he is extra happy.
Looking forward to seeing a video like this now that you guys have gone public. A nice walk somewhere, please! Japan is so beautiful and I love your vlogging style, so easy to watch Sharla. Maybe in autumn when it's a bit cooler ? 😂
This is just a good video, but then DLC was unlocked when Sharla revealed that she's been dating Chris for a while, and suddenly a new set of feelings come out of the video.
On a side note, I wonder how many people believed Chris when he said he's only been to Fledged Burger once with his boyfriend CDawgVA LMAO
11:42 "the view was well worth the wait" I don't think he was referring to the cliffs 🤔
The “American Accent” variant of Chris Broad hits different.
Does it?
he does a great accent!
I honestly thought there was a third person in the car at first haha.
I was a bit caught off guard by that and stared too intently at my screen 😅
I thought it was his friend American Pete.
What an adorable couple. Almost as cute as Chris and Connor :3
Nobody beats Chris and Conner ;-)
Aww, look at these 2 on a cute date together
I know things now, and I’m having a blast rewatching your videos ;)
Woo, just in time for breakfast! It's so glad getting to see you explore and enjoy the country again, and I've always really loved mountain temples! They're always so beautiful, and Yamadera Temple is no exception!
I’m so happy I finally got to see it! Been meaning to come here for yearsss☺️
Watching this video after their reveal, kicking myself for not seeing it sooner. All the signs are there!
Yes! This video actually confirmed it for me with how Chris is acting. but ofc, I wasn’t sure until Sharla actually said it.
This video means something very different after today
Watching this video in a very different context now. I can finally say you two look so cute together :)
Had a good laugh at the end when Sharla cut Chris off.
I was wondering why Chris didn't make a joke when Sharla said her legs were shaking. Now we know why...
eww, creep.
I did not came* here for the 12:45 meme, but what a delighted surprise to jump from a ship to another
They were not obvious at all in my opinion or i don't have eyes 🤣😁
Chris gave it away, since the beginning I could sense a different vibe from him when he was with Sharla vs other female friends, Sharla is very lucky that her man treats her like that🥰
I think this might have been the video where I thought "they'd make a great couple". And whaddaya know...
Looking back, only love could make Chris run up those stairs
Anything to impress his woman
ah yes chris, with your boyfriend cdawgva
Really good video tho! definitely on the list of places to visit
Watching this after sharlas recent QNA so cute !!💞
Ah yes, the sound of Chris's heavy breathing from behind the camera... 🤌🤌🤌
Always thought at 8:00 mark... Man, that looks like some boyfriend material right there... Today, it's all revealed!
Back here after you confirmed that you were dating Chris
