Dudeeeee!!! I just moved to japan like 2 weeks ago and I've wanting to meet with you.. YOU HAD TO LEAVE NOW???? come onnn 😭😭 jokes aside, love you man, take care of yourself.
I only found your channel a few months ago but I binged practically all of your Japan videos. They were so real and truthful. I came for Japan but stayed for your personality. Good job pushing through that time where you were struggling! I can’t wait to see what videos you make next.
Hey Athan, i have literally binged watched your whole Japan series and enjoyed every minute watching. It realy gave me a raw perspective and helped me vizualize my dream of one day studying abroad in Japan. Throughout the series i realy saw you become independent, build new realationships and become a man. I wish you much succes with your further journey and hope you reach your goal of 100K subs.
This actually made me cry. Its just so bittersweet. It has been an awesome journey. It's a pain to see you go. I'll really miss the Japan content and I can't wait to see what you will do now. You are one of, if not the most underrated TH-camr. The effort you put into your videos is immaculate. Even though you only have 6000 subscribers, we all love you a bunch. There are literally almost no Japan TH-camrs that do what you do. Show the real life. The others only show the good part and what you can do. I want to see what happens and who you will meet. I hope you have a great time with your family again!
Cant believe its over... youre japanese is so good, after nearly a year of studying it myself i understood more than half of what you were saying. Funny how culture shock is the same as getting over grief. That was one awesome adventure, thanks for all the videos and you better hit 100k
Hey man, I just wanted to say thank you for posting and sharing your experience living abroad! I'm going to Japan in September and will be staying for a year too. I couldn't keep up with your content cuz of college and work, but I'll binge watch the videos now to prepare myself for the trip lol. I'm really rooting for your success on youtube, the edit, the planning, the storytelling, everything is amazing, a work of art! It's just a matter of time for you to get to 100k! The dedication and the hard work are gonna pay off for sure, keep it up! Also, great job on the self-improvement journey, the difference is clear from the start of the adventure! It looks like you found your way to express yourself through the videos. Again, thanks for posting and good luck!
Been following along ever since I got my acceptance into Duke back in March and came across your Duke videos,,and got to say,,following up on your journey in Japan and before has got to be one of the highlights of my year so far✨️🙌🏽. Love the absolute dedication and amazing quality of your videos!! Definitely deserves to be on top💯🙌🏽
From watching this journey on my way to the barracks now finishing my 2nd semester in Uni gotta say its been amazing. You've lighted a spark in me not many could, to take that step and talk to the rep about possible stdy abroad chances. I've just loved the realness and you('ness) that just radiate through these videos that just make u so fun to watch. Big ups brother. You are you and thas all it takes to conquer. Time for you to end this chapter and move to a new one.❤
i’ve been here from the very start, the way you grew and went about in your videos gave me the confidence to apply to colleges in japan thank you for giving me that confidence
Thank you for this! I plan on studying abroad in Japan for atleast a semester. And your journey is inspirational for me, as well as many others. Best of luck.
Watching your journey to Japan and back felt like a preview of what I’m about to experience, I just applied for college in Japan and will hopefully start next fall. Watching you made me feel better about going out to experience where I’ve wanted to go since I was a little kid all while learning new skills and better education. Just wanted to say I loved watching this series and will continue to watch you while taking my steps in Japan, Thank you!
Congrats on surviving in a scarily scarily foreign land! It's been 10 months? wow. You had a text-to-talk voice over back then but now it's done with your own voice. That alone is making me cry a bit. (Almost a decade ago, I studied abroad for several years as a foreign student, so.) As for your channel, I don't think you are doing any bad at all. It's a good one as a self-branding channel already. And at least for me it's the kind I must follow.
You are such an inspiration to me!! I was watching your videos when I wanted to apply for study aboard. I finally came to Tokyo! Even tho I’m only here for less than two months I’ve been enjoying my experiences
Bro, I thank the algorithm cause this just recommeneded to me out of nowhere, and I can relate so much to the point that I thought you are describing perfectly what I am currently going through in life. I am at the "frustration" phase and having a hard time for a big decision to whether I should extend or just go back home. But thanks to your content, it helped me weigh my options. Thank you again
It is rare to have video from peoples leaving Japan. Thank you for doing it. I have been 3month here and yeah it is hard to start a new life somewhere else. It takes even more courage, to acknowledge that maybe the decision was not the best for you.
Athan! I’ve been watching your series to prepare for my own study abroad next year. I’m hella excited and you’ve provided even more hype for me. Keep up the great content :)
WELL DONE, ATHAN! I was definitely expecting Narrator-san (I'm a minute in and hope we get to say goodbye to him). You've done something spectacular, and you've challenged yourself. I think it's saying something that you met one of your biggest inspirations in the first few weeks RIGHT after losing your wallet on the second day. It was the universe's way of telling you this would be scary, but it would be worth it. Let me finish the video, but well done!
my man your amazing, i was waiting for this vid sooo long. congrats dawg have a blessed time. 🎬 cut the japan arc has ended damn man i feel blessed to have found your channel 3 months ago 😭🫡 dawg i hope you have a great career im gonna cry this video was so diff it hit diff 😭
I'm so happy to have seen your videos. I visited Japan this year in May and June by myself and I was so happy... I had the same experience with the culture shock curve but only for a short period of time... 3 weeks... which changed my life entirely... If you are heading to Japan, leave me a message, maybe we can meet up there... because my journey may have just begun... otsukaresama deshita ❤🎉😂 arigatooouu
Got the TH-cam channel recommended by a really good friend of mine and I was hooked. Ive been binge watching the Japan arc and I've just caught today! Such unreal effort on the videos and everything else, hope everything goes well for you bro 💯
Amazing story it really inspired me because i am planning to move to japan as well once i reach uni to study abroad i'm 15 meaning i will have to wait 4 more years 😔 . This story made me want to go even more thank you!
Been here for all your Japan videos and will continue to stay for as long as you post. Im moving to USA this year to study as well and I hope I can have an amazing experience just like you.
found your channel just after I found smallbrainedamerican and both are very comforting to me for different reasons. i hope you continue to travel and do more videos. best of luck bud.
Man... you are my inspiration now. Yesterday i was searching for a yt video about studying abroad in Japan, then i stumbled upon you. Which im really glad i did. Your video will continue to reind me of my goal, and thats to study abroad in Japan and get to experience the rich culture. Love your content. Gambare!!!
Wow you're Japanese is almost as good as mine. TBH. I spent two years studying Japanese before studying abroad in Japan. Then I retook Japanese 1 twice in Community college and College.
loved ur japan adventure and and all the vids and im still going to watch u for u but it whould be fire if u go back to japan again in the future. Much love
such a sick video bro. just did duke in Alicante and went through a very similar experience as you even though i was only there for 6 weeks. culture shock is real lol
Duuude how have i just now discovered this channel? I watched your 1st day in japan vid and i lived it, i just moved to this video, and i will slowly watch the rest of the vlogs!
I am almost at the 3 month mark of living in Japan. And all I can say is, it has its days. I live the weekends when I can go out and travel and luckily I knew a few people here already. But yeah, I am remaining patient and trying to look at the positives. If Japan has taught me anything it’s patience. I am on at least a 2 year journey here
Genuinely this video made me grasp my heart in such ways you don't know, I've watched from the beginning where you had struggles and were naive to everything in Japan to now have grown so far to learning so much Japanese is absolutely insane, how did you manage to learn it? Through school or any online systems? I genuinely want to know, i hope one day you can return and even move there, you deserve it
I'm so thankful to my Japanese host families that taught me how to be Japanese and how to speak Tokyo and Osaka dialects and the customs and cultures of Kansai and Kanto regions.
I blend in because I am Asian and have a compatible culture and the same philosophy and I spoke Japanese and could read and write it. And I also learned Japanese customs through Karate classes.
I didn’t leave a comment two months ago; but I came back to leave this comment now. As someone who’s been wanting to live in Japan for years, and plans on finally making the move next year; I really appreciate your Jvlogs. Living vicariously through people like you really helps me get through the bog of an otherwise mid life. I hope to meet you in Tokyo one day!
Man, im so happy for you. Living in japan is also a big dream of mine. Im Brazilian, but im currently studying in Portugal. I’m closing up my first year of college and it’s been a long journey… I miss my family, and I won’t be able to return home for a year, probably. But I’m so happy to be here, and my parents are visiting me later this year, so im definitely looking forward to that, and im very grateful! When i watched your videos, i could see in myself the same struggles you went through. I commend your bravery and tenacity, for suffering is truly what makes heroes. You are very courageous and you have achieved a great feat. Congratulations! I hope to one day move there, as i have been unsuccessful in the past. I tried to forget this dream, but it just has a way of going back to me. At this point, i can’t really ignore it, can i? In a way, i think that I wasn’t ready back then. I was younger and very naive. When i finish my course, i will have proved that i can endure all kinds of hardship and loneliness . I believe i will be ready for japan this time.
Yeah really feel this!! the only way we grow is through hardships. If it's your time, go for it!! what's most important is staying true to yourself and your inner voice
man now only i got to watch ur video im all caught up since u made the first day on japan, im glad you enjoy ur trip on japan i hope someday if ur planning back to japan hope i was there xd
Hi Athen. I don’t even know where to start. But I wanna say I’m proud of you, I know most the emotions you felt while you were at Japan. I’m lucky to have family and friends in Japan so I can’t say I felt the loneliness but I understand the frustration of not being able to do anything without much difficulty. I’m proud of you for sticking through the journey and I want to say your Japanese is good, it’s better than mine 😂 and I have fluent Japanese family. This was my first video I’ve seen by you but I felt almost all you were saying. Thanks for the video. You earned a subscriber👍🏼
I came to japan a month ago and am going through a lot of what you went through. Watching this has made me very grateful to be here, and very sad to leave. My biggest problem is missing home but also loving here. I'll never be able to have both, and so I'll always be mourning whichever life i am not living. I miss being able to talk to strangers, but i also love not being forced into conversations with strangers. I miss in n out, but I'll miss mos burger too. Yesterday I met a street dance group that does my same style. I dont even have that back home. I am in turmoil now, so Im just gonna end this and go back to not thinking about it cause that hurts less lol. Just remember you can always come back cause nothing is impossible.
Just binge watched so many of your videos, your vids are legendary. And I just want to say, you WILL become the TH-camr that you want to become, there’s no way it won’t happen, it’s just a matter of time ⏰ In fact, you already are that TH-camr that you’re wanting to become, you just don’t happen to have that number that reaffirms that to yourself, yet… Anyone that asks you if you’re a TH-camr, you should give them a resounding “yes”, because when they look past that 6k subscriber count, your content is on another level. TH-cam only recommended your videos to me today, that should tell you that we (the subscribers) are on the way 👏🏼 Let’s goooo
I can't stress this enough, but if anyone is planning on going to Japan for the long road (more than 1 month) it is an absolute necessity to have a strong grasp of Japanese so the "frustation/culture shock" doesn't hit that hard, but I'm really glad u pushed through and enjoyed the rest of your time in Japan! Keep up the good content, you gonna reach big things!!
that last shot was so goddamn perfect, a direct callback to the first shot of the first japan video. nostalgia hits hard.
AYYYY THANKS DAWG, it was a nice/bittersweet moment for me as well😅
@@AthanWright So when can we expect you back in Japan haha
@@AthanWright was the shot intentional?
Dudeeeee!!! I just moved to japan like 2 weeks ago and I've wanting to meet with you.. YOU HAD TO LEAVE NOW???? come onnn 😭😭 jokes aside, love you man, take care of yourself.

I'm honestly surprised you don't have more followers. Your Japan series are awesome and original. Love your videos and lots of luck!
すごい内容の濃い動画です。たった1人で外国に来て生活することがどれだけ大変か思い知らされました。日本語めちゃうまいですよ。
You're so cool 😭😭 Thank you for the video and for the thoughts!

Amazing! Could you make a video about how you would learn Japanese from the beginning again? I am so lost on where to start…
cannot believe its already been a year, it feels like i watched your first video like 2 months ago. time flies
dude ikr, it's gone by so fast
Bro what a journey, so happy that you decided to stay for the full year. Alot I could say but this video just put a smile on my face. Well done!
I think Japan is very difficult to get used to, even for Japanese.
but surely there must be someone who loves you in Japan.
good luck
high quality video, u gon get far my boy
ayy thanks my boy
Great post. Also: Have you watched Shogun on Hulu? Your reaction, etc. might be good subject for future video.
Duuude how have i just now discovered this channel? I watched your 1st day in japan vid and i lived it, i just moved to this video, and i will slowly watch the rest of the vlogs!
素晴らしい成長をされましたね。日本語も完璧ですよ!あなたのような人がこれからの世界を牽引して行ってください‼️

ayyy thanks for the love dawg!!! glad you loved the journey
Im on a similar journey but down here in Fukuoka bud. Been here 4 months making content - let’s collaborate! 🙋🏽♂️🇯🇵
I came to japan a month ago and am going through a lot of what you went through. Watching this has made me very grateful to be here, and very sad to leave. My biggest problem is missing home but also loving here. I'll never be able to have both, and so I'll always be mourning whichever life i am not living. I miss being able to talk to strangers, but i also love not being forced into conversations with strangers. I miss in n out, but I'll miss mos burger too. Yesterday I met a street dance group that does my same style. I dont even have that back home. I am in turmoil now, so Im just gonna end this and go back to not thinking about it cause that hurts less lol. Just remember you can always come back cause nothing is impossible.
you're not alone brother! nothing is perfect, but there is beauty in that imperfection in life... if that makes sense lol
Just binge watched so many of your videos, your vids are legendary.
And I just want to say, you WILL become the TH-camr that you want to become, there’s no way it won’t happen, it’s just a matter of time ⏰
In fact, you already are that TH-camr that you’re wanting to become, you just don’t happen to have that number that reaffirms that to yourself, yet…
Anyone that asks you if you’re a TH-camr, you should give them a resounding “yes”, because when they look past that 6k subscriber count, your content is on another level.
TH-cam only recommended your videos to me today, that should tell you that we (the subscribers) are on the way 👏🏼
Let’s goooo
I can't stress this enough, but if anyone is planning on going to Japan for the long road (more than 1 month) it is an absolute necessity to have a strong grasp of Japanese so the "frustation/culture shock" doesn't hit that hard, but I'm really glad u pushed through and enjoyed the rest of your time in Japan!
Keep up the good content, you gonna reach big things!!
Quality video making dude
your videos are amazing. i always enjoy watching them. keep going.
1 year isnt really long term, 1 year is still the honeymoon phase.
