  • Alternate Title: I Met A Korean Car Girl In Osaka (LOL, yeah right, I would never!)
    So, we are back in Osaka for a few days, just catching-up with old friends and meeting new ones. I had a couple of friends from America ask me if they could possibly see some car stuff while they were in town. Hearing so many interesting stories and lore over the years from Osaka, they wanted to see if it was real. Is Civic culture as big as its been portrayed to be? I wouldn't normally try to put anything together since I enjoy being lowkey while I'm here but Sara was in town as well, so it was a good time to get car enthusiasts together again. So, a meet happened very last minute on a Wednesday. Many of us haven't been able to reconnect since the borders re-opened so it was time to pump some life back into the car community in Kansai! Everyone be safe out there and abide by all the rules and regulations please!!
    *Yes, I am aware of an audio cut in some parts of the video but trust that I'm not saying anything important for me to have to re-upload.

    I honestly believe your ambient still shots are the best thing on UA-cam. There's something so calming about them; even if there's no movement happening, you feel so present in the moment in a way photos just can't capture.

    • @THECHRONICLES
      @THECHRONICLES  Рік тому +12

      I'd like to think so too, haha. Framing and subtle movement is so important and lost on so many other UA-camrs...

    Your one of 2/3 car related guys im subscribed to, you catch everything so well. So much of Japanese content has become so popular and commercialised now it’s almost become cheap, but you still capture the real authentic rawness of what every genuine Japanese car fan wants to see.. appreciate your time for these videos man.

Did you have an opportunity to get behind the wheel? Nice to see the Osaka Hondas again. And thanks for sharing your experiences.
