I can imagine, Rachel dressed in all white in all that snow with red lips and her bright read hair! that alone would be both stunning and scary for some kids who have never seen a foreigner haha
So I looked it up real quick and our Krampus is only to be found in the areas of old Österreich-Ungarn/Austro-Hungary. So I'm kinda surprised to find this comment so far up.
This comment needs more likes. I really appreciate how the ending shot wasn't "just" a drone shot, but also had great cinematic planning. Zooming out from them, to reveal the castle, to then zoom out more and reveal the city. Superb.
高木正弘 im swiss and we have so much snow... It looks beautiful when the sun shines, but when it storms and is very cold, it's no fun. Also, the sun goes up at like 8am and sets already at 5 pm... 😅
I live in south Texas, so I haven't seen ANY snow for the winters I've been here... I know it's crazy to people who see snow every winter but I honestly miss it. I used to have so much fun when I was a kid XD
Re: exiting the convo - when I studied abroad and talked to my parents on the phone and they got too annoying, I'd say "bye" and hang up on them. When I got back, I was in the habit of doing that and tried to end a LOT of our conversations this way... it was super awks cos I'd just sit there (STILL IN THE SAME ROOM AND FACING THEM) thinking "this works better on the phone" 😂😂😂😅
HAHA no that actually sounds great. I'm going to do that when I want to argue with people face to face now. "Bye" "What? I'm still talking-" "BYE" *runs off*
Same problem here, I live in a dormitory far away from my hometown and when my parents call me and make me furious I always just say that I need to go because I'm busy, and then I come back home and have no excuses to use because they see I'm just scrolling through pictures of fat cats while eating potato chips xd
You can do that?! I'm 34 with two older siblings and we've never been able to do that with our mom...or her mom. Although at our age it's no longer about lecturing and more about not having 45 minutes or the desire to stand around and keep the conversation trundling along past its natural conclusion.

woah guys - the quality of this video was amazing! Beautiful shots of Akita and the snow - the camera seemed so crisp! Plus the drone shots were beautiful. The voiceovers were so funny and enjoyable and i learned a lot from this video but it was still super fun to watch! It made me want to go abroad to Japan and visit myself :) Thank you Rachel and Jun, you guys really made an effort with this video and it paid off so much, well done! ps Jun, i think your snow angel was beautiful... but you might wanna work on your technique if you wanna impress your wife :P
This brings back some good memories from my trip last year to several winter festivals in Aomori and Akita prefecture. The Oga Namahage Sedo Matsuri was probably my favorite, although the Yokote Bonden was also pretty weird...
This is really a beautiful video because of its winter scenery, so while your title might be apt for the scene with those cool costumes (you were genuinely scary, Rachel! hahaha), there's so much more here. There's one shot of about five seconds where the snow is falling on a forest: I really loved that and could watch it for hours. I gather you have a drone now too, so the overhead shots of your making snow angels is exciting. You've gone way beyond the average TH-camr because you're now making not only topically interesting videos, but also visually interesting videos. Maybe your fortune comes from that tree you got to touch. That was cool. It reminded me of the heart trees in Game of Thrones. Thanks! :)
When I was studying at Akita International University we went on a field trip to that museum! It was so cool. They tried to teach us Akita-ben too. 'Tried' being the key word...
hahahaha at one point we interviewed the shokunin who built the kamakura snow huts and one of them asked me a question, and I had to look at Jun for a translation and he repeated it in standard Japanese, and then everyone else made fun of him for translating Japanese into different Japanese so I could understand it lol. Yeah Akita-ben was pretty rough!! haha
hahaha I feel that. Jun is amazing for understanding it! I pretty much ended up replying んだから to everything since I had no idea what was going on and it was the only thing I could remember hahah
It sounds like in America when my friends from the midwest come to visit me in Boston and they hear some real local accents where they can't pronounce the "R" sound and it comes out as "AW" and when they say "wicked pissa" I have to translate that just means "awesome!"
I must say that I really like this new style of video from you guys! Having the two of you provide the commentary in a conversational matter really makes it stand out!
seriously, there is a Kami(japanese shintoism god) in toilet as well. nowaday its like a urban legend, however if you would clean toilet, your face will be beautiful according to the legend.
I always find interesting that cultures all over the world have kind of the same festival's and ceremonies. I'm Hopi Native American and we have a ceremony were soyokos come to each of our houses in the village and demand food from everyone, young and old to pay for life for another year. they also know of the children have been bad and threaten to eat them if they don't correct their bad behavior.
Nice video! As I like seeing more of Japan cultural events and I have a lot of love for the kamis and yokais of Japanese folklore, I was really happy watching this video with all those onis!! Thank you! And of course, the drone view is just amazing! It was really beautiful in Jun's last video too. I'm looking forward to the next ones!
Haha, that's a job I could do - being a Namehage. But i scare small kids with my face normally, so I probably wouldn't need to dress up for it :D (I work as a teacher's aide btw) Also, those drone shots of the snow are soooo pretty ♥
Don't be! There are plenty of people who travel to Japan knowing no Japanese at all. Of course it's harder to get around and you rely a lot more on hand signals and asking people for help, but I believe you get more opportunities to interact with Japanese people that way anyway. :)
Check out AbroadInJapan's channel. He moved to Japan with no knowledge of the Japanese language and only his British sarcasm to get by. Over a year he developed a greater understanding of the Japanese language and only a minor drinking problem.
We have very similiar traditions here in Switzerland :D even the costumes look very alike :D they go around at night and "steal" children and things :P
satireknight nope. Krampus is german and is a christmas thing :) ours is in the frane of Carnival/Fasnacht but with scary masks. It is not the same in all regions but the one that is most similar is the Wallis "Tschäggättä" i have never been but this is basically the most "traditional" attempt of Carnival in Switzerland :)
As an "aargauer" (swiss) guy I can agree the masks and the costumes look extremely close to the ones from our Guggemusig and Fasnachts guys :) (I dont really know anithyng about the storys behind them except for that I think its partially to scare kids and Fasnacht is to scare away the cold from the winter or something)
+Robert Amison They are Perchten also in Austria. Krampus is like the special one that visits the homes with Nikolaus, but Perchten roam the streets and make like lokal processions. I am really amazed at how similar they look, though. instead of bast clothes they have fur clothes but the overall look is similar.
Hi R&J, I just found your channel this week. I recently had a spinal surgery and I'm dealing with post op stuff now, and it's been a really stressful time for me. I started watching more TH-cam videos while I'm supposed to be resting and I ended up coming across your channel. I watched quite a few of your videos and I just wanted to say that you brought a smile to my face. Thanks for making a stressful time for me a little easier. :)
was just watching juns latest video on juns kitchen then this came up on my screen and i was trying to magically speed up his video without skipping it😂😂
I started watching Jun's kitchen because of your gorgeous jerk cat who I can't remember the name of and now I'm just obsessed with all your channels. Japan is so fascinating to me and also the amazing way you can both switch languages. It's incredible.
Wow! That festival... there's an almost identical one in Finland, although not preserved as well. It was called "kekripukki" or "nuuttipukki" I think, and sometimes it worked in reverse with children dressing up as ogres and going house-to-house to sing, receiving treats in return. So it's kinda like a multi-task christoween. Mas. Thing.

I got excited when I saw Akita!! I'm actually studying in Akita and I have no idea where to go or anything about the festivals here!! Thanks for sharing this video. I guess I'll have to try kamakura next year since winter is already over in Akita :(
It’s so beautiful!! How did you film it at the end when you’re doing snow angels and the camera slowly goes higher and finally shows the view from the sky??
I'll have to Remeber this and it explains alot of how Kindergarteners react to scary faces. I recently moved to Tochigi Prefecture as a Kindergarten teacher. So this might come in handy to know and make sure little ones are doing their English homework! ^-^
Rachel & Jun Thank you for the advice! Love you guys and your videos for some time now. I'm happy to say after 2 years of getting ready and preparing to find a job and preparing for the move, I've finally made it to Japan! ^-^
Japanese culture is beautiful and amazing, I've always wanted to visit and learn how to speak and write in Japanese. Most people say I'm strange for wanting to visit because of myths passes around about it, but to me it's a beautiful place, and I will make sure I make it there one day.
Your channel's shots and content are all so good! I'm so confused why these videos doesn't have enough views! Great job by the way! The snow angel shot was awesome.

And "ARE THERE ANY CRYBABIES HERE"

That last shot was absolutely incredible!
Asfandyar Saleem Butt i wonder how they film it that way? are you using little helicopter to bring your camera filming from above, rachel?
i see. thanks!
like small 'heli'. i know nothing about filming. is it difficult to control this drone?
Meiliana You can search up drone tutorials on youtube! I'm sure you'll find lots of valuable info :D
Japanese Krampus.

That snow is so beautiful! We didn't get much snow in Seoul this winter..... :(
Are snowy winters typical there?
snow is very annyoing thing in Japan.
that is not entertaining but just life.

woah guys - the quality of this video was amazing! Beautiful shots of Akita and the snow - the camera seemed so crisp! Plus the drone shots were beautiful. The voiceovers were so funny and enjoyable and i learned a lot from this video but it was still super fun to watch! It made me want to go abroad to Japan and visit myself :) Thank you Rachel and Jun, you guys really made an effort with this video and it paid off so much, well done!
ps Jun, i think your snow angel was beautiful... but you might wanna work on your technique if you wanna impress your wife :P
This brings back some good memories from my trip last year to several winter festivals in Aomori and Akita prefecture. The Oga Namahage Sedo Matsuri was probably my favorite, although the Yokote Bonden was also pretty weird...
Did you guys get a drone? How the hell did you get all those amazing shots?!
Drone! :D
magic
How exciting! It really ups the production value of the video :)
They did! I first noticed in Jun's new kitchen video
What kind of drone? The new mavic?
This is really a beautiful video because of its winter scenery, so while your title might be apt for the scene with those cool costumes (you were genuinely scary, Rachel! hahaha), there's so much more here. There's one shot of about five seconds where the snow is falling on a forest: I really loved that and could watch it for hours.

hahah that's great. It's so interesting how varied dialects can be. One of my lecturers is from Boston and his accent is so strong! Very cool though
I must say that I really like this new style of video from you guys! Having the two of you provide the commentary in a conversational matter really makes it stand out!
Japan's toilet technology tho 😂
muccycloudvlogs almost like a religion haha
seriously, there is a Kami(japanese shintoism god) in toilet as well. nowaday its like a urban legend, however if you would clean toilet, your face will be beautiful according to the legend.
A_Little_Me this thread sounds like a shitpost
muccycloudvlogs what a waste of time.
BTW autocorrect wanted me to type wasteland instead of waste, Japanese tech ain't i right.
Aaaah I've been living in Akita all year and had to miss both of these festivals. I'm glad you filmed it!
I don't know why the pan out from Rachel and Jun make snow angel make laugh so much 😂
Fitri Ayu Permata Astri It's very sweet. :3
I've been watching your videos for over a year and it's been so amazing watching you grow as a TH-cam channel! Keep up the awesome work :)
I also have a day in which I scare neighborhood children.
It's called... *Everyday*.
^ Yup, everyday. We do it just by going outside. :P
Oh, wow! That last shot going from Rachel and Jun's snow angels to the scenery was beautiful!
I always find interesting that cultures all over the world have kind of the same festival's and ceremonies.

You used a drone for those last few shots didn't you? They were really cool!
That was some really beautiful aerial shots!!
Haha, that's a job I could do - being a Namehage. But i scare small kids with my face normally, so I probably wouldn't need to dress up for it :D (I work as a teacher's aide btw)
Also, those drone shots of the snow are soooo pretty ♥
I love seeing Rachel in snowy places because her hair contrasts the white of the snow really well and she looks like a model! I'm sure Jun agrees!
That place looks so beautiful ... but im so nervous about traveling to Japan alone this summer with limited knowledge of the language.
Don't be! There are plenty of people who travel to Japan knowing no Japanese at all. Of course it's harder to get around and you rely a lot more on hand signals and asking people for help, but I believe you get more opportunities to interact with Japanese people that way anyway. :)

"For that my Lord has granted me Forgiveness and has enrolled me among those held in honour!"
Quran. Islam

The beginning with all the people in the costumes reminded me of Where the Wild Things Are😂
I got excited when I saw Akita!! I'm actually studying in Akita and I have no idea where to go or anything about the festivals here!! Thanks for sharing this video. I guess I'll have to try kamakura next year since winter is already over in Akita :(
Best couple!
Outstanding! Wonderful imagery! Thank you for sharing
It’s so beautiful!! How did you film it at the end when you’re doing snow angels and the camera slowly goes higher and finally shows the view from the sky??
With a drone
Your music n the snowy trees scene is phenomenal
I'll have to Remeber this and it explains alot of how Kindergarteners react to scary faces. I recently moved to Tochigi Prefecture as a Kindergarten teacher. So this might come in handy to know and make sure little ones are doing their English homework! ^-^
haha different areas have different types of "Namahage" so ask the other teachers if they have something particular in that region they use!
Rachel & Jun Thank you for the advice! Love you guys and your videos for some time now. I'm happy to say after 2 years of getting ready and preparing to find a job and preparing for the move, I've finally made it to Japan! ^-^
I really enjoy the new style of videos you guys are doing! They have a playful personality to them n_n
Japanese culture is beautiful and amazing, I've always wanted to visit and learn how to speak and write in Japanese. Most people say I'm strange for wanting to visit because of myths passes around about it, but to me it's a beautiful place, and I will make sure I make it there one day.
Same
Your channel's shots and content are all so good! I'm so confused why these videos doesn't have enough views! Great job by the way! The snow angel shot was awesome.
5:31 I WAS LITTERALY LAUGHING SO HARD CHINA COULD HERE ME
Juns snow angel made me chuckle. Beautiful Video you guys!
1:11 *very passionately* CORN SOUP she kinda sounds like a demon at that moment which is fitting
I simply love your channel, you two are such cool people
Wow! Japan is beautiful, especially a snow laden Japan! 😁
Lisa I hope you realize Japan killed it’s people and put them into camps in world war 1
Lovely drone shots! Looks like you all had lots of fun!
Nothing like a bursted ear drum and bad dreams after watching this video
Ahhh! I’ve been trying to find the video where Rachel said in a sing-song voice “one of these things is not like the other” for so long, finally!
秋田に来てくれたことを喜ぶべきか
秋田にいるのに会えなかったことを嘆くべきか
どっちか悩んでたら動画終わってた
ご視聴ありがとうございます！また機会があればその時に！なまはげ太鼓は是非また直で見てみたいです。^^
Nice! I wish I could explore at this festival for the winter tournament!
**shows scary intro**
**then shows love-y dubby text and music afterwards**
Yep that seems correct!
Wow, terrific video footage this time around - it looks so much better. :) Great video.
Jun what is wrong with your weak snow angel skills?
Namahage are real interesting!
