I want to give this more than one like! So pretty! 🌸🌸✨🌸🌸 And Emi is awesome! Get her together with tiny-apartment girl!❤️
Short answer: YES
Longer answer: YES YES 😆
A video with Emi seems to be so much fun and filled with tons of information one would not get to know normally.
Just watched the new Shamisen Under The Cherry Blossoms video Norm and it is soo good, to slowly float under the sakura and having Kanami and Hikari play the wonderful sakura song, it is so beautiful, great work guys.
Glad you caught that vid!! By far one of my favorites so far!
@@TokyoLens Mine to Norm
agreed :)
After 2 years delay, I'm FINALLY in Japan, and my school even has a Shamisen in our music room that I can use and practise on before comitting to getting my own!
THAT IS AMAZING!!!! Congratulations!!
have you joined the Learn Shamisen lessons by Kiki yet?
@@TokyoLens That's the plan! I think I just barely missed the early bird pricing though.
@@ArvidOlson drop me a DM on Instagram 😉
おめでとう！！！
Happy for you. After waiting about 2 years I gave up on my dream of language learning in Japan. When I come back it'll be for a 2 or 3 month holiday learning. I will live vicariously under you. Enjoy your time there!
Emi seems really cool, would love another video on the water with her! Also I hadn't considered the tides haha. I've recently taken up a hobby of beachcombing in Sydney and even here there a huge difference in the tides. Just last week there was some really wild weather and at high tide the waves were washing up onto the promenade 😬 if you google recent news articles for "Bondi waves" you'll see some of the chaos, but I degress. The ocean is a crazy place and I imagine boating on the open water is a different ball park.
The Sakura trees are beautiful! I've been to Japan 5 times, but never at the right season. One day though, haha.
As always, thanks for the adventure!

When we hanging out? lol
@@TokyoLens Borders are opening soon!
@@thetypebeast impatiently waiting for that day 🤞😀
Tokyo from the water, cherry blossoms, and Shamisen. Perfect 😍
Rightttttt? Lol
(secret 2nd norm comment!) Did you know that I hang out in the comments for the first hour or so of each video release? Want to get to know each other better? Come join in that first hour!! 😉
Thanks for being here :D
Always 💯 💜
Love the content! Your videos are always so well done and are very inspirational! Thanks for everything as always!
Glad you like them!
Thank you so much and I hope your day is beautiful!!
What an amazing tour of the sakura by the water! Yes, more tours with Emi! I've always noticed that being on water gives a whole different look at cities.
I love how the sakura petals floated on the water…add in the calmness of the water and the lovely music and I don’t think one could find a better place to see the sakura trees.
💜💜💜 the acoustics. Beautiful location too. Props to Kiki for excellent playing bobbing around on a boat as well. 100% up for an Emi tour of the waterways. Hoping your schedule has calmed down a bit, and you're managing to get a little more rest. 💜✌🐦
Schedule is about 3x worse than the last time we talked haha
It’ll calm a bit in about a month or so
Just gotta stay afloat till then!!!!
@@TokyoLens 😆 頑張ってください (Doai emphasis) - All the best to you, Norm
wow Emi's English is so good! he sounds really natural as well
Man... Tokyo from the water is a whole different level exspacialy The sakura trees hanging down were beautiful.
When your boat was reaching the bridge and you were still standing, my anxiety went 📈😅
lol I suvived
@2:07 H. E. Double Hockey Sticks “ YES” 🙏🏽
hahaha
Yes to more waterway content! It's so great to see Tokyo from a different prespective.
That was beautiful! Must have been a nice surprise for the people that went to see the sakura to get a life shamisen performance on top, makes it even more special. Also love all the little facts that Emi knew and even just the fact that the architects that designed the buildings around the canals had these nice little ideas.
What's a better view than a cherry blossom while on a boat 😍of course, a view with amazing music in the background 🤩
I am watching videos about Japan for years, and seeing Tokyo from the perspective of its canals is a refreshing view. Thank you for sharing!
Spring has sprung and Norm is already on the water! Looking so forward to the different content from Japan; you can see food and destination videos anywhere, but sailing in Japan is pretty different and awesome.
Really happy to see another video on the waters of Tokyo! Loved the last one.
More to come!
Our family use to go to Kinuta park every year for Sakura festival, really hoping to see this again in my lifetime. Toronto tries to showcase but nothing beats the smells & colors of Japan's Sakura!
I love how supportive that other boat was! “Give it your best!” Is just so encouraging from those random passersby and you could tell the Kiki girls really loved the support.
Love the content! Its always my go to pick me up or for when I'm eating. I grew up in a small town in Ireland and at the entrance to my housing estate there's a big grove filled with cherry blossoms and its always made me want to visit Japan and just absorb the atmosphere of the culture and all the beautiful landscape
Another amazing day with Kiki! I am loving these beautiful boat vids!!!
Always a great start to the day when I get
To catch a video with my morning coffee. Thanks for letting us explore with you.
It's so cool that the buildings by the water are designed to look like boats and sails.
Emi seems to be such a cool person! I‘d love to see her more often in your videos. 😎
I've been sick in bed for the past few days and missed a lot of yours and the crews' videos, so catching up has been amazing!! Just been on a marathon of comfort channel vlogs, and you're one of my faves, Norm. Always love seeing you doing something new and getting psyched about heading out into Japan. Thanks for what you do, and your friends too!
Unique way to enjoy the Sakura 💖💖🌱🌱
Short but amazing virtual trip on my Sunday afternoon.
Thank you so much.
Big YES to another boat trip with Emi! Lovely video as always 🌺❤
Totally caught myself ducking as I watched the boat BARELY making it under those bridges....and then laughed out loud at myself, as I'm sitting in my office in the US and have no need to duck! 😆
I'm loving these boat videos. It's such an unique perspective of Japan!
Shamisen on boat during hanami season is the only natural progression in your videos tbh
Oh this is so calm and peaceful, and a beautiful place for shamisen 💜 Emi is awesome, I’m looking forward to more videos together
Looks great crusing around on the river in the sun ... and then to be serinaded by Ki&Ki as well ....
Just great, .... really really great.
Honestly such a fun day
Can’t wait to have you here!!
LOVE THIS! What an awesome video
I love that you show us areas we don't normally think about visiting or exploring. Thank you for sharing. And a YES for me. Please allow Emi to show us the different waterways and explain to us how it has change and reshape the city over the years.
Awesome video! Beautiful views! Can't wait to see a video with Emri showing the waterway!
This was very well made. I love your content. It's refreshingly different!
Oh man, I would LOVE a guided tour of Tokyo's waterways! :D Can't wait to see it.
Ah so cool! What an amazing day that would have been with KiKi and the sakura on the water. Emi sounds like such a fountain of knowledge! Would love to see a video with her about the waterways.
I love seeing Tokyo from the water. 🥰 Keep up the great work Norm!
I'm jealous of those kayakers, that looks like an amazing place to paddle around!
Emi showing you/us around the Tokyo waterways would be awesome - she really seems to know a ton of interesting bits and pieces.
Amazing water trip! So beautiful. I love how the buildings look differently from the canal
Awesome video as always, and the highlight to have the Kiki girls rocking shamisens (can’t wait for it) under the Sakura! You have certainly reveled the Tokyo water ways and I hope to one day explore them myself.
Never tired of these river videos. Definitely going back on one when Japan opens up.
Boat limbo under the Sakura? 😂
When I watched the shamisen video this morning I couldn’t help but think how lucky the people who live and work around the canal are to have a free performance.
The shamisen is such a nice instrument to experience ! Especially when played under the cherry blossoms. Might have to try and learn one myself 😁
I was leaving the house right as the video dropped and have been out all day, so it was great to finally get home, kick back and watch this behind the scenes of the shamisen hanami boat video! So much neat info from your captain too! My favorite part, though? The sakura-shaped shamisen tuning pegs! 😍🌸
Absolutely need a video with Emi sharing their knowledge! It was fascinating hearing the bit that was shared. Definitely going to go check out the music video next! Music and cherry blossoms ❤
Loved the insights from emi on the sails and Sakura
Visiting Japan virtually is amazing! We get to travel from bed! I love it. I’m trying to do the same in UK.
I always loved the thought of doing Photography ever since I was a kid. When I started watching your videos roughly a year ago, made me finally buy a camera and start doing what I love
Great video. I'm looking forward to see a proper boat tour with Emi.
Awesome! Definitely interested in the waterways and views too.
Hey man, just wanna say I absolutely LOVE like 95% of your videos ever since youtube recommended one of em like 8 months ago or so.
Your videos vibe are always chill, the editing is noticeably "simple" but the way you shoot the vids and editing em, esp the "unexpectable" transitions are solid 9/10.
I honestly learn a LOT about how to actually present a video THE GOOD WAY, being a shitpost/meme vids editor/creator I am, your vids are so eye-opening to me.
Wish you all the best from here on and keep up the damn nice work!
Almost 500k dude! Congrats!
This is so cool! All of you seem so talented
Love the collaboration videos, the way Norms energy bounces off of people and makes everyone happy is so entertaining
This video is painfully beautiful!!
Like seriously, it's about a month till spring comes to my place, and I want warmth and leaves and bloom soooo much, I can't 😭
What I wanted to say is amazing video, keep going!
so cool!
Absolutely beautiful ! Thanks, Norm!
Definitely interested to see it !
She seems so knowledgeable and has an interesting perspective !
New subscriber. Love yr content. Each is like a new experience for me. Tqvm!
Lovely video. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Great video!!
That's an amazing mood setter before a naginata practice. Thank you Norm!! You are wonderful!!
Loved it!!
thanks (^-^)
Nice to see u on Tokyo lens again Norm!!! 🚤👍🏻🪕
Loved it 😍
Taught ESL in Japan for a few years. These videos bring a delicious sadness with them as I miss the place with my soul sometimes. I think I have to go back for a while. Can't wait for the next vid.
These boat rides are next level! Can't wait to try. The tokyo treats look tasty! I gotta order one!
I love that you did a wide angles perspective (I hope I got that right lol) to see the lovely Sakura and sunlight on the canal. The shamisen sounds so amazing! It was like going to a beautiful trip, thank you so much 🥰 I really am grateful ❤️
A beautiful video!! I really liked Emi!
I love your videos so much, and 100% yes to the Emi video! 🥰
Would love to hear more from Emi about the waterway areas. Interesting how the architects incorporate boat themes to the surrounding buildings. Also what a treat for the other people on the water and bridges to hear the shamisen music, bet that made their day! 😃
I've subscribed to this channel for about a year now. I'm really enjoying watching your content. I'm not much commenter but I just want to say thank you for your hard work.
Loved Emi's knowledge and definite yes to another water video!
So cool
Thanks for the cool video. Yes, yes to Emi giving us the benefit of her experience on the Tokyo waterways!
What an amazing video, perfect way to unwind after a long ten hour work day. It looked so lovely out on the water with the sakuras blooming and the wonderful people! 💮✨
Hello Hannah, how are you doing
Thank you so much! It was definitely worth waiting until the end of the work day. I would love to see more of the waterways, please.
Take care!
This is a stunning view.
a special sight seeing of the tokyo water ways could be really cool!
Yes we are!
I'd love to see an Emi focused video. Her English pronunciation is SPOT ON, wow, I was very impressed.
Love your video style and commentary have a lot of binge watching to do.
Saludos desde Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia
Yes to the video with Emi! Love your content!
This was so special to witness :) i just imagine being there feeling the spring breeze on the water 💧 thanks for teleporting me there before i have to endure work lol
Yes I would love that video!
Thank you for sharing this with us! It's still not quite spring here in Toronto (the crocuses and snow bells are out- and that's it, lol) so i always appreciate seeing the cherry blossoms and spring in Japan! So looking forward to more boat content, and learning from Emi! (hope I got the name right). Happy boating~
The day looks great as does Kiki & Emi. You wouldn't know Emi was Japanese if you spoke to her on the phone, no sign of any accent. That sort of thing always amazes me only because I am so very bad at languages. I like the way Kiki laid claim to the snack boxes, whilst their shamisen sounded terrific, & the cherry blossom looks like the legend it is.
Nice.. taking a break from studying for the finals... A short video is what i needed.. Appreciate it..
Emi seems to be a fountain of really interesting information! And she seems so sweet to have offered to drive for this shoot. Would love to see more of her 😊 I hope you are doing well! No matter what the subject of your video is, they are always BEAUTIFUL! Keep up the great work!
What a nice video and great company. Many interesting facts too! And right now, I'm going to see Ki&Ki's video
