おかえりなさい。大阪もかなり肌寒くなってまいりました。風邪など引かぬよう、体調には十分お気をつけください。😊
Another interesting video your new watch is really easier to see
I took Shinkansen from Tokyo to Oaska with JR pass last month. I loved the ride. I ride in blue regular car
PLEASE, please do a video with Yuka Chan the lovely rickshaw girl. You 2 would be great together! 😊😊
Arigatougozaimasu, Rion. I always enjoy your Shinkansen and local train travel videos. Virtual traveling with you is a fun experience. I hope you have a great visit to Osaka. I'm very much looking forward to more videos to come: USJ Halloween, Shinkansen Gran Class, Hiroshima and Fukuoka. 🚅🎃
16:12 I‘m waiting for a video Rion says ‚Welcome back to Rion’s TV and till next time - Bye bye !‘ sometimes around minute 38. 😂
リオンさん、新幹線のビデオをありがとうございます😊。 紅葉を観にそろそろ里帰りしたくなりました。実家は岐阜県😁
thanks for this train ride travel video. Tokyo station is always an amazing place and never have time to go through all the shops... LOL.. love that okonomiyaka you had... it was making me so hungry too, yums!
I found your videos when I was traveling through Japan, and haven't stopped watching since! I feel like I never left Japan!
that's the quality informative content I subscribed for.
Gaaooo ! Arigatou Rion san !
Hello from Indonesia.
I found your travelling videos really helpful. By the way , me and my family are going to Tokyo this month , hopefully i’ll see you on the street by chance ✋🏻😊
I love this video a lot. It's always so nice to spend time watching the world go by. Love it! Thanks so much!
No wonder how fun it is to be tagging along with you. It was such an informative and enjoyable travel video. Glad you chose the Michelin Hiroshima okonomiyaki which looks so delicious!☺️ Wow, can't wait for your exciting adventures in Hiroshima (your 1st time) and Fukuoka. Hope to see the new Namba Parks garden in autumn?
Yes, it's my favorite place, so I really look forward to it 😊
Amazing video. Thanks for sharing.
It such a fun to see how happy you are to be in your hometown again, which is totally normal. Although you have left it recently in the meantime obvious changes occured. You were lucky to get the non-reserved seat in super crowded Nozomi shinkansen at Friday late afternoon or even evening. It is interesting how many trains are leaving Tokyo within such short time intervals, but when taking into consideration the population of Tokyo and the fact that people from other parts of Japan tend to work there it is quite resonable. So your anniversary video took you back to the place where everything started in the past. Again congrats to both the anniversary of your channel and your usual excelent job. Looking forward to new travel adventures soon to come.
無事大阪に戻られて良かったです！そして新幹線が自由席だとどの新幹線に乗っても良い事知りませんでした😅私もお好み焼き広島派です😂👍めっちゃ美味しそうでした！大阪は万博に向けてどんどん変わっていくのでしょうね、楽しみですね2025😊何よりもなんばパークスがどんな感じになるか楽しみです😂ありがとうございました！西日本動画楽しみです！
Great video as always, Rion. And thanks for the Friday Shinkansen tip.
Thanks for introducing Myaku Myaku too. It's ... :P Looks right out of a Lovecraft story.
Interesting. Thank you.
Thank you for the updates Rion! The travel updates about the trains and Shinkansen really help. That's my biggest worry for my trip. I'm not good with direction and worried I'm going to get lost or not make a reservation when I need to, so these help a lot. :) T minus 2 weeks! I'm currently working on cramming all my stuff into a small enough case where I won't have to make a reservation on the train lol.
Let's keep walking!
Also glad your mic still works ok after dropping!
It’s like just yesterday you came back from Osaka and now you are back at home town . Love your life! Btw I would just get the normal price Nozomi just to save time. Want to try that Hiroshima okonomiyaki! Looks so good! Let’s keep walking!
Loved that Rion the soy latte boss coffee ITS OK!!!! 🤣 ITS NOT!!!! 👍🏻😊
Thanks Rion for the update 👍Visiting Osaka this Thursday! Blessed week ahead! 😄
It’s a fun street Haha! 😂😂😂 you da best Rion!
YES FINALLY ONLY 3 MINUTES LATE!
👍👍
You’re awesome Rion!
❤
I cannot wait to go there next month!
Because of the recent update to the JR Pass going up astronomically, I’d say it’s probably not worth buying anymore. It’s so expensive now 🥺
Hello Rion have a nice day and God bless ❤🙏
Hi Rion, love all your videos.
Watching your videos almost everyday - super interesting and informative.
Have been visiting Japan every year since 2018 (except during the pandemic) and will be going to Hokkaido the end of October.Just can't seem to get enough of Japan.
Every time I miss Japan, I'll watch one of your videos - makes me feel like I'm in Japan traveling with you
Can you please make a video to help us navigate Umeda/Osaka stations as well as the areas around these stations? This area is kinda confusing and hence challenging to find our way around.
Thank you so much.😊
Im quite sad to have barely missed you.
I just arrived at Tokyo from Osaka and got the bento you recommended in your last video. Great video as always Rion-san!
😭, Maybe next time😊👍
4:02 1350JPY 5 flavors of cupcake 😋👍, 4:18 259JPY rice cracker 😋👍, I don’t know why I love every food in Japan so much 🤷🏻♀️😄😁. 6:31 🫡noted👌. Give me discount tickets to save 570JPY, and you can buy a lot of meccha oishiii snacks🤨😋, just do it ! 8:21 Rion talks as Mickey Mouse, so similar 😂👍👏! 11:45 Wow! Michelin awarded Hiroshima style okonomiyaki, with many yakisoba noodles and green onions, so delicious 😋. 20:35 Night view of the city under many lights, beautiful😍🏙️. 22:30 The souvenirs at Shin Osaka Station are so attractive, I will definitely buy this Takoyaki cookie🤨😋😁. 24:52 😯I want to buy Myaku-Myaku t-shirt, it’s so cute😍😁. 33:34 Parks Garden is being renovated, it will be very beautiful then, looking forward to it 😉👍. 37:49 aiya! this guy looks like a hedgehog🦔😁. I hope this hedgehog is intact and can cooperate with Rion let’s keep walking.
Thank you so much Rion for giving all the information from Tokyo Station to Shin-Osaka Station, it was very detailed🤝.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
What would Japan be with out the bullet trains. Wow you going to ride grand class. I travelled grand class and it's ultra luxury. Rion you'll find it very hard to go back to a normal seat after grand class. Can't wait to see the video. Enjoy 😊😊😊
Hi Rion! Great video showing what Tokyo Station is like on a Friday night. That Okonomiyaki looks awesome! Weather is cooling down fast in your area. I think the second Osaka Mascot t-shirt is just for you! 😆 Dōmo arigatōgozaimasu. Gaoo!🦁
video liked even before watching 😂😂😂😂
Hello Rion 👋🏼 watching from the Philippines
Thanks for the video and showing how busy the shinkansen is right now. I'm definitely reserving seats now because that is pretty crazy. We are also leaving Tokyo on a Friday night out of Shinagawa so reservations will be a must, it seems.
Aloha Rion! Another great Video! I was trying to find a good Hiroshima Okonomiyaki for our trip in November and you showed us the one in Tokyo Station. How convenient! I love the night views on your train ride, I can never get enough of the Tokyo lights. Regarding Gran Class, Just do it! We rode it in 2017, it was awesome, it ended too soon. Its cheaper than a First Class Air ticket. Looking forward to seeing Universal studios Halloween thru you. Keep Walking!
After watching all of your videos & joining your live streams during the pandemic, I was so excited to finally see the places & eat the foods you’ve introduced when I visited this past summer. 🤩 Unfortunately, some things have already changed, like the fancy apple juice vending machine in Tokyo Station, but I really enjoyed strolling through the Namba Parks Garden after eating at Kua Aina. Now, I’m pleasantly surprised that there are still many new places & foods to try (i.e. Hoshino Coffee & Country Ma’am). 😋 Can’t wait to feel the Osaka Spirit when I return for the World Expo & wear that Myaku Myaku T-shirt! 😎✨ (1st version, not 2nd 😂)
Just watching the video makes me hungry. I also want to write a food report that conveys the deliciousness like Rion, but I can't. Even at a delicious restaurant, I can't convey how delicious the food is. If you have any tips, please let me know😂
We were just in Namba station last week.Namba station is so so big with so many lines..We were very confused 😅😅😅
terrific
Lovin' it, Rion. I've had that okonomiyaki four times on different trips to Tokyo. Makes me happy to know that I knew it was good before Michelin did.😂 I always get the one with the egg on top.
Hey Rion. Just to let you know that as of October 1st, all JR Rail Pass users can now use the Nozomi or Mizuho Shinkansen but those people need to buy an additional ticket which costs more or less depending on the distance (shortest distance costs an additional 2530 yen while the longest cost almost 10000 yen). Both old and new cost JR Rail pass users can use this feature. In my opinion it is not that worth it for most travelers (especially on the Tokaido side) but people that are in a hurry and willing to spend can pay more and use it
Hi rion, my wife and I will be coming to Japan in a few weeks and are very excited from your videos... Would you consider a miyajima and Hiroshima day trip video? Let's keep walking!
the hiroshima style okonomiyaki looks like america's version of the chicago deep dish pizza vs new york style (osaka's okonomiyaki)
👌❤️⛩️
Hi Rion, i'm always watch your video since i love Japan so much but in this video, i don't know if you alreasy know or not but jr pass already increase the price about 70% so it's not that cheaper again if you are not goint to many places with shinkansen
so used to rion speaking english so it feels a little weird to hear you speak japanese, does it make sense? 😂😂 anyways love the japanese vocabulary mini lessons, keep them coming. looking forward to west japan adventures. let’s keep travelling 🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Thank you again for this video. Looking forward to being in Tokyo again in exactly one week’s time, and will definitely again enjoy a bentō on the balcony of the Yaesu side exit of Tōkyō station. Nice to see the weather is still pleasant. Also planning to take the Shinkansen to Kyoto. 😊 Btw, the Mount Fuji video was super interesting - particularly as I suspect I will never climb up there myself.
That Mascot for 2025, looks kind of like a mochi donut
Hi Rionsan i going to USJ and namba on 31st (Halloween day) wish see you somewhere.(i'm from thailand)
😆🦁👍
Love your videos ~~! Are u having a live stream this weekend.?
What a coincidence I went to Osaka this weekend too lol
Country Mam is the best ❤ really you can buy icoca still ? Haha thats funny and a good information
ありがとう Rion-san for the information on the shinkansen! I’m planning to visit Japan in November so i’ll definitely be holding on to this video! Btw, will you be going to Halloween Horror Nights in USJ? 😁
soy latte tho! thats cool.
Okonomiyaki looks good when you eat it, i dont really like the texture but you make it looks soo good when you eat it.😋 maybe I'll try it again for next trip to Japan.
Wow the weather temp going down and now cooler than 1 month ago, when i was visit osaka last month the weather still very hot😢 but less crowded tho.
Is it still cheaper to get JR pass for the foreign travellers to travel via Shinkanshen? Or it's better to try your luck at discounted tickets booth? Some said it's cheaper to take domestic flight than traveling via Shinkansen with the recent price hike lately? I guess Okonomiyaki is not an ideal food of choice when one is in a rush, same goes with Takayuki? Risk of third degrees burn on the tongue and buccal mucosa. So, are you going to attend the USJ Halloween Party/Parade?
Arigatooo Kedderick! Yes! 50,000 JPY for 7 days, if I ride round trip from Tokyo to Osaka, already 28,000 JPY.. So it would be very cheaper especially for travelers who wanted to travel all over Japan by Shinkansen😊 True! LCC airline usually cheaper, a bit inconvenient though!
Yes, for now planning to visit USJ too, Excited😆
@@RionIshida can't wait for the video.
JR Pass is a terrible deal now. Who would travel all over in only 7 days? You'd need to go back and forth between Tokyo and Osaka twice to get the value out of it... I think for 95% of tourist itineraries the pass has become obsolete.@@RionIshida
@@Pvemaster2I am agree with you
Hi Rion! Thanks for all the wonderful videos! Been following since COVID for all the helpful guides!
Would like to check with you, for JR Pass, are we allowed to take Nozomi non-reserved seats, Car 1-3? I only read that JR Pass can book reserved seats for Hikari, not sure if I can sit on Nozomi non-reserved seats, able to seek your advise?
Great video, we just subscribed to you, we've been in Japan for 3 months and recorded several videos but we will be back for sure, maybe we can meet next time, take care!
I love all your Vlogs
I learn so much about Japan 🇯🇵 Thank you
Ill be visiting Japan 🇯🇵 Next month from Arizona usa
Are there much taxis in the Osaka prefecture?
How many NOT Nozomi are going in between Tokyo and Osaka? I haven't seen any when you were heading to the tracks.
I watched most of your videos, I heard the fares went way up? How much is the reserved seat cost from Tokyo from Osaka on the 2.5 hour train in US dollars?
Rion I am your new
Subscriber. I am researching stuff about Japan. Planing to celebrate our 10 year anniversary with my husband and family. We’ll be using wheelchairs. Are all station have elevators to accommodate people with disabilities? Any tips? Advance thank you for anyone who will reply to my inquiry. Please know that I appreciate you🙏🏻
Congratulations! Yes, most of the stations have elevators or something similar. If you ask the station stuff, they have free special assistance for riding for the train too (they use flat board).
Probably wouldn’t be that problem if you are staying the big cities😊
Can i ask, what's the name fo the okonomiyaki restaurant that you ate at?
Not sure I understand. So, if you purchase the Shinkansen ticket from that discount ticket store, the date is another day, so you have to go to the JR Ticket desk to reissue a ticket with a date for the day you're traveling on the Shinkansen? Is that why the tickets are discounted? If I totally misunderstood, please explain the part about changing the date. Thank you.
Yes! Originally it's for Coupon tickets for company which has settled date. So that's why we need to change the date ^^
I thought the luggage rule has been in place since May 2020. Don't think it is a new regulation. Also JR pass is no longer worthy after the 70% price hike for the majority.
Sorry Jerra, I've been using Shinkansen since I was a baby, so for me and other natives, still it feels like new rule🤣LOL
You can travel visit in fukuoka, Japan better if next time ok possible?? Brother
My mom's home town, great place👍
@@RionIshida wow! So nice! 🫶🏻🫰🏻
Hihi, is visa or Mastercard widely accepted in Japan?
Yes both of them!
I think I didn't quite understand the point about handing over my suitcase or paying for suitcases. If you pick up the JR Pass as a tourist when you arrive in Japan, you can simply travel on the JR trains without registering your suitcases, can you not?
Thank you😁😊🙋
If you have a large suitcase you need to reserve a special seat that can fit your suitcase. If it's just a carry on size you don't need to reserve a special seat. Check out the luggage reservation rules for Shinkansen if you are planning on bringing large/oversized luggage.
@@florin529 Understood. Thank you very much for the information regarding hand luggage and large luggage. I understood everything🙋😊😁
Understandable actually, because of the seats🤔😅
In your video you seem to be using an exchange rate of ¥135 to $1; right now it’s more like ¥149 to $1. It hasn’t been ¥135 to $1 since May 😅
I thought it would go back soon, but true, since it stays for a while now, I should change it😂👍
Need more food or interested places example museums and parks less Shinkansen and metro
Not worth saving $5.
😂
🥹
The discounted tickets seem like a pretty good deal if you have some extra time and know how to get around the station, buuuuuut I think when I eventually visit Japan, I won’t use it though. I’d pay 500¥ to not get confused and lost in a train station with only N3 level Japanese lol 😂
