      This does not sound cringe at all. I found these videos during lockdown here in the states. Virtually traveling around Japan via Ferry is one of the things that kept me sane during those times. Much love to you.

      His videos are so informative and also just so relaxing. He really knows how to work his camera. It feels like it is you walking around.
      Also like very much that he avoids filming above maybe someone's ankles.
      One wonders if that is a cultural thing.

    My husband and I watched this during supper. He said he likes how you show things from your view and said it was very relaxing. I tell him now and then that I would like for us to travel to Japan someday.

    Thank you for your content. I appreciate your hard work in making these and just wanted to let you know how much this content has gotten me through some tough days. Both my parents recently passed, and then a year later, my best friend of 25 years lost her fight with cancer. I was a mess. Your videos helped me center myself and find a place of peace during the chaos I was living in. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! ❤❤❤

    A good timing for the ship to depart and arrive in respect of getting a decent nights sleep and arriving at a good hour to allow an unrushed breakfast and a shower before disembarking. Pity the view was clouded over for you to see the sun rise. I enjoy these videos, thank you.

    Thank you for making these videos. I always enjoy watching these and seeing so many different things. I also wanted to say, thank you for showing the signs so often. I'm still learning to read Japanese, so I'm very slow as I sound things out. But I really appreciate that you show the signs in so many places, which lets me pause the video and work on reading things that aren't in my lessons, workbooks, or learn-to-read books!

    I have watched your videos for so long now, when I started planning my current trip I really looked to your videos. Last week I took the MOL Ferry Sapporo from Oarai to Tomakomai thanks to your great video from last year (I believe?) then took the bullet train from Hakodate to Sendai a few days ago. Pleases me greatly to know I may have crossed paths with you and didn’t know it.

    *Of course* there was a curry... I'm starting to think that the thing I most look forward on STJ-san's vlogs is the "I might have a little bit more" bit... right before coming back with another _huge_ serving 😲😄 (I would do exactly the same thing at a _baikingu_ , by the way)
    After watching this one I am left with one pressing question, though: in which way can a forward-facing illuminated window possibly "interfere with navigation"?...
    (I think "There might be some $hit going-on at the bow that we don't want you to see" would be a more accurate message 🙈😁)
