- Not a vlog, no intrusive faces or talking, pure Japan only.
Actually I was planning Shinjuku walk but found news about Shimokitazawa Awa-odori event. Spent some time in the beginning looking around and for festival location.
I like Awa-Odori in Shimokitazawa more than in Koenji. Koenji event is very regulated with noisy policemen and fences, dancers are too serious. Shimo-kitazawa is nice for its small streets, dancers are in front of you and very relaxed, you can even dance with everyone,
Awa-odori - dance from Shikoku also known as Fools dance. en.wikipedia.o...

Filmed in UltraHD 4K 60p with Lumix GH5 camera and Beholder EC1 stabilizer.
Feel free to correct my English or suggest a video to film.
Wow, I know I'm kind of late in commenting, but this has to be one of the most interesting videos of Rambalac, from a cultural point of view- because all of his videos are extremely interesting. I enjoyed the whole thing so much, that I searched about the Awa-Odori dance, it's origins and history and from what I've read, it goes way back to feudal Japan of the 12th century! I love that the younger generations keep these 1000 yrs old traditions alive, as I've seen many teenagers and very young children among the dancers. Thank you Rambalac for sharing this with us!
I have watched several of your videos and it brings back fond memories of my time living in Japan. I lived there for six years and really enjoyed it. Thank you and please continue to film more.
You probably don't know that on that day, among the dancers and musicians, you filmed four people from France, invited by Takarabune, the troop in red (31:26). What a surprise to see four of my friends in one of your videos, I would have never expected that ! We are Tsunagari Ren from Paris, and this summer we will be back in Shimokitazawa with 13 people ! I hope you will be there too, let's enjoy the festival together !
this is so genuine to me, paying respect to one's ancestors. Carrying on a great culture. Having a good time!!
Red guys, from 31min, are called Takarabune （寶舟）.
It's one of the only professionnal group of Awa Odori in the world (99% of them are not) and perform every years in Europe, America and, of course, Japan.
If you have any interest I their performances, please check their website, facebook or Twitter.
Such a spectacular fool in the rain dance festival.💕🎭Enthusiastic crowds of people enjoying a rhythmic taiko beat-feel like wanna dance with them.So full of enthusiasm and stamina.💕🎍🎭🎶Thanx Rambalac.You are the best!!!😁😁😁
Ok this is the best yet in my journey through the walks you have on offer, the atmosphere here is great and it carries. I see in this one the logic behind the setup you have put together. Thanks so much for taking the time to capture these moments and share them.
I've been looking so long for a channel like yours. But I did not think that I would actually stumble on one. Your rock!!! Keep up posting my friend 👍
i really appreciate you buddy. definitely going to do all i can to go to japan by the end of 2018. i will work my ass off. thank you again, you are a high quality unique channel. look forward to seeing more from you.
This channel have become my go to study-background music and work-music ! Love it! I miss Japan!
53:26 That man's smile is so heartwarming to see! They just enjoy what they're doing and that's amazing!
I love to watch the Japanese people in these city walks. My heart warmed at the older lady with her hand on her man, him giving her support. There is a difference with women on the street in the US and there in Japan. I can't quite figure it out, but I think part of it is the lack of pretense of the Japanese women. The young couples, for all the talk of lack of intimacy by some commentators, seemed comfortable and very much together. This all was evident on my recent trip to New Orleans Louisiana. There were a fairly large number of Japanese on the street that were obviously tourists. Maybe just me but I do see a difference as i was able to compare. A general example is the way people react in your videos when they discover they are being filmed. When people discover they are being taped in the US it can be very different (once again, generally). As a news photographer/producer I've learned to watch reactions of people on tape. Watch the occasional Caucasian especially in this crowd, you'll see. Anyway, great video. Thanks.
The music in background is awesome!!! Really nice with a walking video 👍🏻👏🏻
It's really cool to see not only so many shops, but how different and interesting they are. Where i live there are a lot of closed down shops, and the high street is dominated by take-aways and betting shops, it's a huge difference.
Настоящий народный праздник, очень душевно. Спасибо за знакомство с японскими традициями.
This has got to be my favorite video of Rambalac's. Thank you for the info tacked on below the video!
Why I like this channel.... It gives me a feeling that it's me walking in places where I'll probably never actually come...
Feels just like walking through back ally of Japan. I'm too far away to go back often, but your video allows me to relive the experience. :)
I wish your videos could be made for VR viewers. It would be the next best thing to being there.
For some reason I always find your night-time/evening walks the most relaxing/interesting to watch. Anyway, thanks for another great video!
me too
+1 yes
Festival de danse Awa-odori. C’est fantastique ! 🥁🎼
Thank you pour cette vidéo 😀👩💻
I love this video. I see you allow any culture to dance there! Nice.
Japanese culture is really fantastic !
It was probably better when they had samurai
@@flyingpaladin617 please see also my video
thankyou
The fading light and glowing warmth of the street lights under a canopy of clouds, makes this clip especially moody, while the waiting bowl of hot udon puts a spring into the steps of the harried office worker. Although the attire testifies otherwise, this clip puts a chill in my bones as I prepare for bed. Indeed, the fading light. Goodnight.
+stan , but I wish you stay awake and watch another my video :P
I love 25:00 - 31:00. Love those beats.
Could feel the moist, fever and warmth by watching it. As always, thanks so much.
Looks like Umbrella festival rather than Awa Odori fetival . Joking...I love Awa Odori my favorite group is Gojyahei group
very nice !!!! i love the raining video so much and very nice festival ladies speaking too
Love the journey with you, Rambalac ❤️
Awesome time by just watching, I guess if were to be there will be so enjoyable ! The pictures are so sharp ! Thanks for sharing ! Love it !
Well, it was raining and crowded. Many people left before start because of raining.
wow, many left but yet it is still was crowded ^_^ the costume are so beautiful and colorful ^_^
These areas in the videos remind me of some historical sites in Toronto like the Distillery District and Yorkville: Many pathways where both pedestrians and vehicles are sharing them. We have most roads lined with raised sidewalks for walkers.
A tiempo de divertido y felicidad. Gracia para compartir. Saludo desde Frank.
Thats why i miss asia special tokyo so hard i wanna go back there but i have to finish everything in europe
youtube recommended this video to me (after I watched some of Rambalac's most recent videos) and it's kinda surreal to see the difference. You can see most of the faces of the Japanese people here and there are a LOT of people (though considering there is an event here)
I am hoping to see this kind of lively streets again.
Спасибо вам за ваши прогулки. После видео кажется,будто сам в Японии побывал)
So nice
That mom trying to get her adorable chunky baby on her shoulders and failing was just the cutest! Around 56:57
Very awesome.
Thank you ✌️😊👍
a yatta yatta yatta yatta!! Good job on the white man dancing too!
素晴らしい
awesome video!
I love your videos.
They bring me to Japan.
Next time, would you write your filming date and time?
So, I will know what the streets look like at different time of the day
Most of "night" videos are around 7pm
Nice
ニャム いい
田舎者はすごい面白く感じる
Что то от музыки и криков, от того как они двигаются мне становится страшно.
perdona por este comentario..veo muchos japones y japonesas...pero..te has fijado porque las tiendas siempre estan casi vacias y ellos no llevan bolsas de compra o parecido??..un saludo y que sigas subiendo este tipo de videos
eu fico me imaginando andando por essas ruazinhas de mãos dadas com uma japonesinha. parece ser bem romântico. só falta achar alguma moça japonesa q aceite ser minha companheira 😀😀
THANKS
Another amazing video.
Nobody shouting or jumping or interrupting. So refreshing, they couldn’t do this in America without idiots ruining it.
Questions for you:
Did you ever feel strange filming everything all the time with your (probably) big camera-setup? All the people looking at you often enough.
Are you japanese, if not where are you from? (And if you didnt grow up on in japan, how did you get there).
Just curious! :)
I do feel strange, but it's better to feel strange than stay at home without good motivation to go outside. It feels much better when your walks get useful not only for yourself.
1:17:19 The last lady in the dancing group is definitely a Caucasian (European) type. I always thought that only locals are allowed to participate in Awa dance processions. It's interesting.
1:06:09 the dancer in the middle is neither a lady nor a Japanese person. LOL. -stealth 100 : I'm sure they're chill though. Everyone seems to be having fun.
there was a non-japan drummer some where around 32min and i remember seeing another dancer I think some time before that. From what I understand, never having been to Japan, but reading a lot and watching many bloggers, Japan is very open and loves to share their culture. I've known other festivals where a non-Japan person who lived locally help to carry a shrine for a festival, and those things are really heavy.
And suddenly I hear my language! (Italian) :D
VERY GOOD PEOPLE
oh wow i always thought that mister donut was just a fictional store in anime, but its actually a real donut store LOL
this is so cool!
Hold on! Already running toward 3k subs? This channel is blowing up! \o/
Gabriel Gingras :D
Gabriel Gingras I
Gabriel Gingras it better be. lol I'm one of the new subscribers, only 2-3 aka long and I looove these types of videos. 😊🌹
Monoculture looks so amazing.
So why not dance? Thank you for this!
Konichiwa. When this lovely festival usually start??💙🇯🇵
It's better to check for specific year. Awa-odori shimokitazawa (year)
At 31:30 sounds like the game Patapon! xD
How are you usually filming these walk tours of yours? With a helmet camera or some backpack pole suspending the camera?
Neither, just hold it in hand.
You got some very steady hands then, holding up the camera up high that long or you're taller than average. Looking forward to watching your other videos here. :D
36:37 seems her hat is broken. feel sad for her because i think this kind of performance needs a lot of training
A sentire questi ritmi ripetitivi ed ossessivi, seguiti da movimenti di danza, anch'essi ripetitivi ed ossessivi, viene in mente un commento ovvio: Di come i ritmi ed i movimenti del corpo, siano espressione della capacità e varietà celebrale dell'uomo; confrontate ciò che abbiamo visto in questo video, con la musicalità e l'espressione del corpo, sempre in riferimento alla strada, del popolo brasiliano; in questo c'è la fissità del pensiero, nell'altra la più alta espressione e colore della fantasia.
FLORINDO CROCE non sono brasiliani ma giapponesi
Where are the fools in the rain?
Did anyone spot Nobushi
+WesleySnipzzz , who?
Rambalac if you youtube nobushi you will understand what I am talking about

Watch the black guy starting at 1:00:30 (I'm not trying to point him out due to his race).
So interesting. His Japanese mom obviously loves him.
NICE COMMUTER TRAIN

"Toy's"
lel
goddamnit! your lumix getting wet. LOL
Then you should check this video th-cam.com/video/aFYJXOraqw0/w-d-xo.html
Hahahaha
ESTRANHO.
I found your channel by accident, but honestly NO other walk-through video channel does this as good as you. You take (by-far) the best routes and have the best pace and the best camera angles. I love the bit-rate of the GH5 and I'm glad to see someone actually filming on a proper DSLR (micro 4/3 is plenty good) rather than a shitty DJI osmo or their iPhone. So happy to have found this channel! Gonna sub now :)
I wish better battery because with remote control it's enough only for 1-1.5h.
Have you tried using an external battery source?
On gimbal? And they are not reliable because dont provide battery level, so if it runs out video get lost.
You could attach this to your GH5 and then put it in your backpack or other bag depending on the cord length: " Power Plate DV-7.2-GH2-GH5 "
Maybe even somehow attach it to the gimbal or the camera.
It works with the GH5 and it even shows battery level. Lasts for about 5-8 hours with the GH5 filming in 4K I believe. I just don't know how the gimbal would work with the DC adapter wire since it would dangle I suppose. I know this is probably not the best solution, but its just something I found. I use the 2 handed Ronin Gimbal stabilizer and never do long shoots for more than an hour so I guess I can't be much help. Hope you figure out a solution though!
For me problem is never knows when it's the best moment. Once I had to change battery in Shibuya and missed guy in pink fur coat with three fur slippers on leashes behind.
This looks fun. I've watched about 50 or 60 of your vids, now. The Japanese culture looks like a pretty happy and safe culture. I'm a little jealous. 😀😋
I want to move there so I can live in this real life anime
It is strange to look back on videos from a few years ago with bustling streets. I wonder if we will ever return to that and if so, I wonder how long it will take? In the meantime, these videos are really enjoyable. 😊
31:26 - 33:45 I love this part !
When I first saw this, I saw the little kids getting ready to march in the beginning, I thought it was for Children's day. 😅 the little kids dancing, kills me bc they are so adorable. 😅 amazing amazing moment u took. 🌹😊 Can't wait for ur more walk videos. 🤘😎
The meaning of the dance or chants is “Fools dance and fools watch; both are fools, so why not dance?”
Explains why this is titled "Fools in the rain" :D
I found my true love, not any particular person, but an entire culture of happy, relaxed but dedicated people. I almost started dancing in my living room.
Fantastic video! Love the tyko drum beating, the sounds of the flutes and the chanting. This is one of the most emersive videos I've ever watched! Thank you sir!
This is so good. There is nothing but the pure streets. No intrusive music, no talking, just what it is... a walk.
That beat around 25:20 is absolutely dope!
Thank you so much for this awesome footage!
21:58 pompoko
Your work is amazing. I try to tell everyone about this channel. I would love to take the walk around concept to where I live, but I don't think it could work like it does in Tokyo. Tokyo is vast and yet intimate. A surprise is found around every corner.
Very interesting 😊😊 anywhere you walk you’re surprised by beauty ahh I wish to experience this 😭
Been viewing your videos and this is one of my favourites lots of happy people enjoying themselves, wonderful.
Who's more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him filming other fools in the rain?
That was great! I thought I would just watch a few minutes, but I watched the whole thing. I couldn't stop! Hayaccha yaccha!!
But who are the dancers and performers? Do they organize just for this festival once a year?
Can not say for sure, but think they are some Awa-Odori or japanese culture clubs from different places.
PhiloYT1 Awa odori originated in Tokushima, the town was formerly called Awa. In late Aug when Japanese welcome back their ancestors for Obon, the people dance and celebrate (like the "day of the dead "). Check out Awa odori in tokushima, they have over 80 troops
Strange, I thought I posted comment here.
I think dancers are from local awa-odori or japanese culture clubs around Tokyo or maybe even further. That people can participate in other festivals.
Most of them are locals. There is, usually, one group per city.
Shimokitazawa is special as it's very famous but, instead of Koenji (which is the second biggest Awa Odori festival in Japan), you can find more 'originals' and not 'official' groups which are not classified 100% traditionnals.
For your information, in Awa Odori à group is called Ren (連)
