Apologies for not being able to post new videos for a very long time. I guess I enjoyed sleeping in that coffin too much. Anyhow, I am back and very well and hope you all look forward to my future videos that are coming up soon!
No need to apologize, your videos are always a welcome treat! Of course, you can always earn an extra amount of forgiveness by teaching 🏆Champ's Kitchen🏆 your signature risotto recipe! 😉 😂
Even though the quality of your videos well surpasses that of many full-time TH-camrs we understand that this isn't your main source of income so no reason to apologize 😅 Looking forward to what you have in store for us! 👀
But the most important question is: When will we be able to see the iconic duo together again? The charasmatic, handsome Japanese hunk of a man and the British, pessimistic owner of a Shibuya night life district?
@@RyotarosJapan As expected from him... Really looking forward to that one! In the meantime, we at least got this gem of a video to keep us entertained :D Keep up the great work!
@@pppantz chris to me is a fat drunk person who well maybe likes to party but also loves travelling Also i never made fun of him and i used it as a joke
There are three things that I have come to expect from a Ryotaro's Japan video: 1) An insider's look into an aspect of Japanese culture outsiders never see 2) A joke about a quirk of Japanese society 3) At least one joke demeaning Chris Broad
Ah just in time when I finished watching Chris' new video, Ryotaro also uploaded a video. Perfect timing Coincidence? I think not xD 0:49 NANI? KANSEI DRIFTO? 😂 0:57 Lol, the "situation" So much fun to see Japanese people having fun at festivals, it really sucks the "situation" prevented everyone from enjoying the festivals to the fullest. Thank you Ryotaro for showing us one of the festivals!
Thank you for not being afraid to jump in to provide us with amazing content! 😂 It was very fun/enjoyable to watch! The festival atmosphere must be missed dearly but glad they’re still able to perform in this way.
I danced with a ren in Tokushima at the Awa Odori festival for 3 years and it's the best thing I ever did! It really is the community that makes it worth dancing in the heat of the summer, wrapped in so many layers! The geta actually aren't all that uncomfortable, and it's much easier to balance than you would think when you first look at it
That was a good vid. Loved finding out more about the festivals and dancing. Can you do more on them? You don't have to dance in them :) Although, given the short training, you really didn't do too bad at the dancing, but it also showed how incredibly skilled and hard working the actual dancers are! Cheers dude.
Having finished watching the video… I feel that this process could have gone much better had Ryotoro had at least a bottle or two of sake. Then he could have blamed his utter failure on the alcohol. (Which is the real secret to dancing well-having an excuse for dancing poorly. 👌🏼)
It is so important to create and keep community. When there is no sense of community bad things are bound to happen. I am so happy to see video's like this. Thanks Ryotaro!
This looks like the same place where the Tokyo Creative team took part in the performance! Hopefully the situation will be back to normal for the 2022 festival season. It's such a fun dance to watch, even if it does look exhausting for the legs.
this was awesome & you did an excellent job, ryotaro. don't know why they switched it up on you, for the performance, you had the moves they taught you perfected. in america, we call that being punked. you still nailed it, though.
TARO君!!! So good to see you…and see you haven’t changed a bit! (Seriously, how have you NOT aged in 20 years?!) Glad to see you’re doing well - so happy I found this and I’m looking forward to watching your other videos. Take care! xoxo❤️❤️❤️ -Kate
It is fun and interesting to see folk dance from the other side of the planet, but i can not even imagine how much the knees would hurt after having been jumping around for 2 hours a day, for a week straight, like in that Nebuta Matsuri festival you mentioned at the beginning of the video -Now that is dedication to ones’ community.
Apologies for not being able to post new videos for a very long time. I guess I enjoyed sleeping in that coffin too much. Anyhow, I am back and very well and hope you all look forward to my future videos that are coming up soon!
Welcome back, and thank you for the new video!

I still love you don't worry.
Great seeing you again Ryotaro
But the most important question is: When will we be able to see the iconic duo together again? The charasmatic, handsome Japanese hunk of a man and the British, pessimistic owner of a Shibuya night life district?
The peasant seems to be holding a fire, but we won't disappoint you. It should be coming sooner than you think!
@@RyotarosJapan As expected from him... Really looking forward to that one! In the meantime, we at least got this gem of a video to keep us entertained :D Keep up the great work!
Maybe Ryotaro saw the kinds of places Dave was taking his other friends and thought maybe it's best to keep a safe distance?
@@pppantz chris to me is a fat drunk person who well maybe likes to party but also loves travelling
Also i never made fun of him and i used it as a joke
There are three things that I have come to expect from a Ryotaro's Japan video:

2) A joke about a quirk of Japanese society
3) At least one joke demeaning Chris Broad
You missed where he makes a fool of himself. :)
@@tanmad21 Ryotaro doesn't make a fool of himself in _every_ video...
This is the way.
I suspect he started his TH-cam channel solely to be able to get back at Chris' slander in his videos
@@oivinf That may be one reason, but to do this much work and make such engaging content _just_ to get back at Chris Broad? I dunno...
Today is amazing day. Ryotaro, Chris, Sharla and Tokyo Creative have released new videos on the same day.
"But ever since... *the situation*"
that script was hilarious Ryotaro, keep at it
Sharla, Chris, and Ryotaro in one day?! Nyum nyum
Ah just in time when I finished watching Chris' new video, Ryotaro also uploaded a video. Perfect timing
Coincidence? I think not xD
0:49 NANI? KANSEI DRIFTO? 😂
0:57 Lol, the "situation"
So much fun to see Japanese people having fun at festivals, it really sucks the "situation" prevented everyone from enjoying the festivals to the fullest. Thank you Ryotaro for showing us one of the festivals!
Thank you, Ryotaro! This was exactly what I needed for my Saturday.
Finally Risotto remembered his password
Yay!! New Ryotaro content! 😁
I just want to say that your content is amazing and your name is so freaking cool
Hurrah! New content! Wishing more to come! :)
That was awesome!! Wished there will be more display. The Japanese festival always seems so lively. So fun even though it looked hard.
So interesting to get a glimpse of the dance culture. Another thing to add to the 'looking forward to seeing' list. Plus I got a good laugh. Thanks!
Mr. Ryotaro you're British is showing. I can smell the sarcasm and despair similar to that Chris peasant you always speak of.
Well done! Thank you for sharing more Japanese traditions and your pain.
Ryotaro is the most underrated Japanese TH-camr, he’s amazing!
Thank you for not being afraid to jump in to provide us with amazing content! 😂 It was very fun/enjoyable to watch! The festival atmosphere must be missed dearly but glad they’re still able to perform in this way.
As with a lot of dances, it is harder than it looks! Nice festival outfit haha
Amazing video.
The camera work and editing, really draws one into the spectacle of the dance.
Super good 👌🏼
Finally had a chance to watch Ryotaro's channel and my full attention was given to it. Great channel will binge watch tonight.
Considering this was your first time doing the dance, You did great Ryotaro! 👍
I danced with a ren in Tokushima at the Awa Odori festival for 3 years and it's the best thing I ever did!

Whether you mastered the dance or not does`nt matter, you took part and gave it your best.
That was a good vid. Loved finding out more about the festivals and dancing. Can you do more on them?
You don't have to dance in them :)
Although, given the short training, you really didn't do too bad at the dancing, but it also showed how incredibly skilled and hard working the actual dancers are!
Cheers dude.
"Teach me this dance, please!" "Ehm..." "TEACH ME!!! Pls!" "He is... not going away, is he? Ok, let's teach him." :D
Thank you, Ryotaro! You're cute.
Dancing is best done when one is under the influence of alcohol. This is why dance clubs have bars. 🥂💃🏻🕺🏻
Having finished watching the video… I feel that this process could have gone much better had Ryotoro had at least a bottle or two of sake.
Then he could have blamed his utter failure on the alcohol. (Which is the real secret to dancing well-having an excuse for dancing poorly. 👌🏼)
As the weather gets colder here and time spent outdoors dwindles the timing is perfect for videos such as this. Thanks, Ryotaro!
alright luv, this was hilarious
Thanks a lot for your video. It is my biggest dream to see a Japanes festival once. I am a big fan of your videos. They are so inspiring.
It is so important to create and keep community. When there is no sense of community bad things are bound to happen. I am so happy to see video's like this. Thanks Ryotaro!

Ryotaro, thanks for making my day with every upload! Have a good one.

Well done Ryotaro, that dance looked difficult but you did it! Thanks for showing us
It is fun and interesting to see folk dance from the other side of the planet, but i can not even imagine how much the knees would hurt after having been jumping around for 2 hours a day, for a week straight, like in that Nebuta Matsuri festival you mentioned at the beginning of the video -Now that is dedication to ones’ community.
I'm applauding you there Ryotoro !
The flow and production quality of this video is very good.
Great quality video 😄 and interesting and funny 👏🏻
I'm glad they have found a way to perform and share their dance. Thank you for doing this video.
I've watched this dance at hundreds of festivals. Looked easy. I was wrong. Another great video. Ty
I love how you can see the production quality rise with every video you make! Loved this video
An amazing video ryotaro, keep up the good work. Always learning something new I appreciate it more than you know!
i like how he nonchalantly disses chris xD
Amazing video! Loved the training arc lol
glad you're back, mist your content. nice episode keep it up.
Awww you're such a fun guy! My knees hurt just watching this lol and I'm only 31!
The production quality and overall quality has really changed for the better! Good job Ryotaro-san.
Man, when corona calms down i’m gonna travel to japan and hopefully see one of their festivals irl. Would be so sweet!
Great video Ryotaro:) always nice to witness people who are passionate of what they do !
Oh man! Seems like an amazing cardio - given that one takes good care of their body, of course!
Loved it! Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 😀
Great video Ryotaro, I love seeing things about different matsuri
Always great to see another video with your perspective. Hope the break was nice too, all content creators need a breather.
Awesome job dancing! Great video m8
3:34 "alright luv, any chance I could learn this dance too?" 😭😭😭
I love the awa-odori dance and music.
Nice try Ryotaro-san 👍🏻 watching your video totally entertained me 😆
The way you said "But ever since *THE SITUATION*..." reminded me of the way you said "my friend from *CAANADAAH*" in a video with Sharla. ^o^
How did someone just invent this and have it catch on? Impressive
You should come to the UK and try Morris Dancing! 😉
"The Situation" also known as "The Virus Of Unknown Origin"
Love the cultural aspect in your contents. Please keep it up
Please do a video of you teaching Chris this dance.
Nice to see Japanese festival, first time seeing this sort of dance before 👍
"the other peasant" lol
Mr. Miyagi looking on in approval was beautiful
That music (2:48) sounds very western and, it has to be said, danceable.
Nice video Ryotaro!
No dislikes...I love your vibes🤗🤗
that was amazing thanks for showing more amazing things in Japan i can't wait to travel there.
Cool, a New Ryotaro's Japan video! I was beginning to believe he had actually died just to tell us what death was like in Japan. 😅
You’re dancing is good actually
Awsome video need more vids 😂
Great video Ryotaro! Great to see you are back
Very beautiful and interesting culture.
Nice video👍
毎週、良太郎さんのビデオ待ったです , i have waited for your video every week , こんばんは、ベトナムの TH-cam視聴者です
Best vid yet 👍🏻
Nice lady in black: ‘humour him’.
Loved the dance! A dance based on being drunk….. I love Japan!!!!!
Always love and look forward to your videos. Thank you Ryotaro!
T H E S I T U A T I O N
I thought you were going to Tokushima. I didn't realize there was an awa-odori center in Koenji as well.
Sweet, glad your back!
Gives a new meaning to drop it like it hot. Japanese sophisticated twerking ages ago.
that dance looks cool
Another great video ryotaro
love it! i hope i can see it in person some day ^.^
This video was so cool to watch!
Hahaha. You so funny ryotaro. You da best!
I was wondering why Chris was on fire in his most recent videos. Clearly Ryotaro applied the burn.
Beautiful!
I love this video
😂😂😂😂 you look awesome 👏
So when can we expect a Sendai based England-Japan dance off ? I'd put my money on you ;p
Absolutely great video mate… Chris wishes he could have content like this
Love the videos!
So beautyfull dance tradition :)
Can you do a video on Nebuta?? 青森の五所川原立佞武多
Can Risottoro's shirt get any smaller? Find out next episode!
Schmediums for the win!
