i get that this is a 'sponsored' video...but....this is pure HANNAH brilliance. loved it and LOVED seeing Morioka and all the fall colours.
I love that you love this! 😍
It's the only way to travel! 😁
@@CurrentlyHannah hi how r its good video..i ve some questions can u plz answer...and i am new subscriber tu your chanel
滝観洞！30年くらい前にドライブ旅行で立ち寄りました。最奥にあんなすごい滝があるなんて知らなくて、途中でリタイアしそうになったけど、今でも忘れない観光地のひとつです。まさかここであの観光地をまた観られるなんて思いませんでした。ありがとう！
Amazing video! I’m so excited to be going to Japan for the first time with my group of high school friends next week. I’ve literally been wanting to go since I was like 12 years old
Fantastic production! Really looking forward to each Hannah video!
Thank you Hannah for making such a nice video.! Always support you!!
OMG what a stunning video.!!! I've been following you for a few years already and seeing you grow is so refreshing, and inspiring.
Thank you so much for posting this video!, although I'm getting on this train almost every month, but never experienced this most lluxurious Grand Class. It seems literally gorgeous, it is more gorgeous than what I imagined before.
Thank you so much for sharing with us this beautiful experience of yours.
I am a small TH-camr with plans to move in Japan in March this year,
and honestly I feel that don’t need any other guide to help me to go around Japan,
I feel that I can learn so much from you here on your channel.
Thank you for that.
Wish you all the best and looking forward for the next videos!😊
日本へようこそ！
グランクラスの紹介！完璧でした👍😊リポート、映像、BGM！最高でした👏👏👏🎶降りてからの盛岡の紹介も完璧✨きっと！盛岡の人達！凄く喜んだと思います✨😊
今度は東京駅グランクラスラウンジ楽しんで♪是非！北海道にも来て下さい🥰🎶そしてグランクラスと北海道の魅力を発信して下さい🙏😊お待ちしています🙋
Thank you Hannah and Chris for this video and I am sold - will definitely seek out Gran Class to give it a try. Can’t wait to go to Morioka to try all the specialities you mentioned too!
Wow! Will 100% be doing that when i'm back in Japan.
Oh that train carriage looks diviiiine. Fantastic choice for music! I loved the editing during the wanko soba . THE CAVE SUBTITLES, AHHAHA! I showed my wife the scene with Chris and the cats, and she said "OMG IT'S A CHRIS THING, IT'S IN YOUR NAME"
Hahahah the cave subtitles were my favouriteeee 😂 laughed so much editing that!
So, for those wondering about the design of the front of the train. It is less about aerodynamics and more about sonic booms. The shape allows the train to travel through tunnels faster without creating a sort of sonic boom.
More specifically it's about reducing tunnel shock upon entrance and exit to tunnels. Part of this is compounded by the fact that the Shinkansen network uses relatively narrow, single-bore tunnels (to save on tunneling costs).
Loved seeing how nice the train was and the beautiful destination! Also appreciate the different camera angles to show everything off! Well done!
Another day watching Hannah while having dinner after work. Love your videos, this was not an exception. Sending lots of love from your regular viewer 🥰
Thanks for taking us along...so nice!
I've been here nearly 3 decades and your content is really excellent. I have no idea what would be involved in making a production so good.
I feel and see it when I do it, but there's no way I could start to reproduce it. Same with your mountain stuff - which is where i spend my time, mostly.
There are many wonderful sightseeing trains like this in Japan.I'm glad you introduced the wonderful luxury trains in the Tohoku area.
You can say a lot about the Shinkansen, but not that it is a sightseeing train ;) For that it travels too fast and through too many tunnels and with concrete walls on the side.
Granclass and the colors of Morioka, just wow! You put together the most beautiful videos of Japan and have inspired me ever since I found your vlogs from your performer days. You make it look effortless but I know it's so much work, so thank you! 🙌🏽
For a 3-hr train ride , the GranClass is totally worth it . Can't believe how empty the GranClass train car was .
#CurrentlyHannah - you always manage to take us to interesting places and showcase unique and fun experiences.
It's sooo worth it considering the price haha. And actually the carriage was booked out for this shoot by JR East so I didn't get anyone else's faces in the shots haha
I was wondering why was the Granclass so empty! 😅
Awww, you both look amazing. My wife and I would definitely travel Gran(d)Class 😁 👍♥️👍
Hannah, did you booked the whole granclass? I don’t see No other passenger???
Great video Hannah!!! The GranClass looks amazing as does Morioka!!!
Wow!! Definitely will be trying first class one day and spoil myself! Really seems worth it! Good to know what to expect hehe
Never heard of Reimen before, it looked really yummy. Love how that restaurant still has this 50’s look. Also, the soba eating seemed fun😂
(Happy new year!!!✨ Love how your videos are always so scenic and full of life, simply beautiful!)
9:25 Chris interacting with the cat is such an anime protagonist vibe
Ive always wanted to try granclass..hopefully someday.. it's been on my to do list since moving
I'm going to ride 'Gran Class' soon, so I'm happy my favorite TH-camr's GranClass video popped up!😊 Now I know what to expect.
Also, thank you very much for covering Tohoku region!
Very slick and classy, well-done guys 👏
(I was thinking "it's alright if I ask if Chris was doing the camera work, right?" I knew it had to be him 😀)
Looks to me like JR's objective was to compete with business class for domestic routes, and I think they've nailed it.
As usual, Japan's nature in autumn is on another level. And the waterfall inside the (Rōkandō) cave looks unbelievable (cute kitty) Thanks H & C
Thank you! Camera work on the train was mostly Chris, yes 🥰 Extremely thankful for him!
Ooooh very nice sponsorship to get! With tons of useful information that I plan to make full use of in the future when I revisit Morioka and venture even further up North - which would be very nice to do in Gran Class! (Even though Hayabusa is my favourite anyway and regular seating is fine too!)
Another Gran video filled with wonderful experiences super cool to see the bullet train
Beautiful ! Thank you for sharing Japan, in a tourism-friendly way. 😊 (I hope you take that as a compliment !!)
I absolutely do! Thank you for watching!
新幹線の座席でいろいろとチェックするクリスがかわいい。😂
I splurged on this when I visited last June, it was lovely.
Amazing video! inspire me to make my videos ! thank you!
I haven’t seen 1 of your videos in seems like forever BUT this video was awesome I totally enjoyed it from start to finish 😎🇦🇺😎🇦🇺
That was a great video. If you have a chance, why not come visit Kyushu in the western part of Japan? There are many wonderful nature and hot springs.
Wow amazing
初めて観ましたが、凄く面白かったです😂
日本人が気づかない所に他国の人の目線なので、凄く新鮮でした😊ありがとうございます😊
Great review 👍 I was on this great shinkansen myself last month and i can confirm everything you showed. Except I didn’t have the complete cabin for myself alone 😁
日本人だけど新潟県より北には行ったことがないので、うらやましい限りです。
ほんのちょっぴり贅沢な旅行気分を味わえました。
I've been wanting to ride in the green class the next time I go to Japan, it's nice to know it's not that much more! Awesome video, and Morioka looks like a great stop, as well. 😊
I loved your very informative, interesting, helpful and friendly video. I learned so much and appreciate your video very much 💜
Wow! This was the video that just kept on giving and giving..... Great job Hannah! Loved all of it. If I win tatslotto, I will certainly be on that shinkansen in granclass!
It's been a while since I've been on the channel, but you kill it with your production, the panning of your b-roll, editing, dudes camera work........ Japan not giving up the "d."
Would love to experience it one time. Thank you Hannah!
訪日観光客の大多数が京都へ行くと思いますが、オーバーツーリズム気味でほぼ外国人観光客でごった返してます。
東北地方へ行ったほうが楽しめると思います。
How i miss autumn in japan
Thank you JR East for the amazing service!
So interesting .. 🙏 thanks for sharing Hannah 🌺
JR東がスポンサーの動画なんですね。 oh, JR east officially support you. Amazing !
It is amazing how one can make herself like a sunshine through videos. 🥰
And I really like dark. I'm from Finland, so darkness is my second nature
That tree is beautiful! a lot of the maple trees where I am at in Canada are Japanese red maple trees.
Bahaha the soba experience definitely looks neat x’) instant contagious laughter 🥲
ありがとうございますがめちゃ綺麗
Looks amaazing!
The best thing about Grand Class is that the additional fare is minuscule compared to Green Cars, the traditional first class of the bullet train. Seats tend to sell out pretty quickly, so I recommend making reservations at the earliest occasion.
Thanks for reminding me of the Grand class
I went from Tokyo to Morioka with same train , amazing how fast we got there and from Morioka I drove up to Kosaka to see the Acacia forest , that really toke my breath ,imagine whole town has Acacia trees arown it ,amazing experience.
I feel like even if they didn't have sponsored it, you would have done everything the same and enjoyed it just as much. Brilliant video.
Hahah 100%. It was a very easy “yes” to this sponsor
yay trains!
But on a serious note this was an incredible video, you and Chris did a fantastic job filming. First Class is next level lol
編集も素晴らしいしとっても見やすい動画をありがとうございます。
日本旅行を楽しめて頂けたのなら幸いです。
Thank you very much for your posting🚄
投稿、ありがとうございます🚄
It is the first time for me to watch the Gran Class (Shinkansen) 👀
グランクラス（新幹線）を、初めて見ました👀
Lovely video..Really miss Japan...love it...
参考になりました。ありがとう！
Because of this video, I am getting to be wanting to get on the green seat when I go to Rural site from Tokyo. I may need to get on like this seat in Green car of shinkansen to get relax. and this relax feeling must be the benefit to my business . I may have to say you thanks. so, you are so talented to show us very good contents video.
ニューヨーク🗽タイムズ紙で以前、2023年に訪れるべき観光地の特集が有りました。その時に一番目はロンドン市で、二番目が何と盛岡市でした。そして今年の三位は山口市です。良き伝統文化が存続する地方の魅力を再発見すべき機運ですね✨
Awesome video Hannah, crystal clear video and great filming style
I was in Morioka late October and that maple was just starting to change colours. It looked like a rainbow 😍
A wonderful vid, as usual, Hannah :) It can be difficult to thread the needle on sponsored content, but it’s always easier when the product or service is legit HQ value (like both Green & Gran cars).
Thank you; hope you’re great 🎉
Absolutely! This was one sponsored video I said yes to immediately! 🙋🏼♀️

Thanks Hannah, another video/destination and way of travel to try for my next visit this coming Autumn..from a fellow Brisbanite....I love your genuiness :)
The waiter continuing to surprise attack you with noodles was so funny.
Still thinking about that Soba noodle place- looks so much fun! Gotta get there one day!
Another great video :)
This makes me want to go back to Morioka 😍
I just looked up the conversion of how much the ticket price would be in USD, and my jaw literally dropped.
It’s like $170, which was lower than I expected. I’d do a three hour train ride for that price in “first class” style, sounds luxurious.
I'd rush to do it if I was you though, the exchange rate is not going to be as favourable forever... :)
the place was beautiful 🤩
Well, Brisbane trains will instantly help you put the "normal" Shinkansen back in perspective. :)
Thank you for introducing Japan so beautifully💐🗾💕🍁🚄
very nice video composition🤗💖👍💯
Absolutely epic filmmaking
日本を楽しんでくれてありがとう！！
盛岡楽しそう！グランクラスも乗ってみたいなー！！
羨ましい。日本人でもなかなか乗る機会ないです。
私はきっと一生乗る事はないでしょう😂
I have never ridden the gran class of Shinkansen. It is a good guide for me about it and Morioka I have been about twenty five years ago when I visited my friend who lived as a teacher in a senior high school there in Morioka.
This video is a very good English lesson for me and so I've registered this channel, Currently Hannah.
I've only just started watching your content and I'm so glad I found you- really enjoying watching your videos. Much love from Northern Ireland ☺️.
これは案件でしょうが、この方がＪＲから見込まれるほどのユーチューバーさんというのがよく判りました。登録者数も多いですね
Recently rode the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Kyoto and back, and part of me regrets not going for the full experience that this Gran Class offers.
No Gran Class when travellings down towards Kyoto, only Green car as an upgrade which sits in between regular and Gran Class.
@@Hans-gb4mv Yeah, that's the only other class I saw when I rode the line. Maybe next time when I visit a different part of Japan.
凄くよかった👌🤗👍😋🙏
Excellent video ... great... I need to go to Japan right now.... jaja
So good .🏕️🙌
Wow a Sponsorship from JR East???? That is amazing congrats! Would love to hear the story of that
Pretty impressive snagging a JR East sponsorship!
The only drag about Gran Class is that the Hayabusa is so fast the ride doesn't feel long enough to appreciate it (unless you shell out for the ride all the way to Shin-Hakodate). Perhaps it'll be a bit more enjoyable when the Hokuriku extension to Tsuruga officially opens up and makes the ride longer.
Yes, I agree! By the time we were done with videoing everything, it was nearly time to get off 😅
Ive been watching hannah for years and its funny as seeing her go from just solo cinematic hikes to a hot as TV presenter 😂i wonder what the next 5 years will bring for ya suga, xo your da best xo
Hannah i traveling back to tokyo and osaka feb 18/ 19 til the 25th i am a seasoned solo traveler. This vid helped in last min extras for trip can i take it to osaka feel like treating myself lol... so if u r in town would love to hang out get a drink whereever you r lol....As always thanks for the vids..i will be there feb 19th til 25/26 sooo lets do it oooh i am from nyc dean deluca is a nyc store...
Welcome to my hometown, Iwate!!
If you go to Morioka, get off at Ichinoseki on the way and be sure to try mochi honzen.
Those are definitely Canada-like maple trees. very pretty
All Chris needs is the food out table, and the man is set haha. That sink though…., tap, soap and dryer all in one. That’s forward thinking.
He’s a simple guy! 😅
Hey Hannah! Awesome video, the first class Shinkansen looks elegant. What storage device or platform would you recommend to new vlogers / content creators for short form videos?
I went to your link for booking GranClass but cannot find a specific pricing and booking area in the website for GranClass. Can you provide more information? Thank you. OOOOPS, I was trying to buy GranClass with a Tourist Pass. Not available?
❤❤❤❤❤
omg all i wanna do now is that soba challenge *nom nom nom* 😂
Great video because I learnt a lot of good stuff about Gran Class. You should do a JR-East hotels video too because they are the best hotel group we have used in Japan.
Q: Did Gran Class offer a vegan choice or did you go flexitarian for the occasion? This would be my only hesitation in booking Gran Class.
Look at you getting the private First Class access! You’ve made it! Haha, it looks REALLY nice.
Also, the “Australian subtitles” had me screaming… naur!!
I admire you😊
