    THANK YOU FOR 5 YEARS ON UA-cam!! Since we've traveled SO MUCH these past few years (100% thanks to you guys) I wanted to compile all our best footage, including clips we've never uploaded, in celebration of our 5 year anniversary. Or... 5 year 2 month anniversary. Here's a list of every clip in this video, in case you want to put any of these spots on your bucket list! :)

      It can be really special (although I wish they would do more to get rid of those overhanging wires that are so clearly visible in many places in Japan).

    • @jodonnell64
      @jodonnell64 7 років тому +17

      PapaQ Short of burying them, there's really no decent way to hide them. The problem with burying is first, the cost. It costs more to bury power, cable, and phone lines than it does to string them up, especially when lines need to cross where buildings or other existing infrastructure (roads, water lines, etc) are.
      Second, Japan is tectonically active, meaning lots of earthquakes. Not just big ones that we hear about in the news, but also small ones that can barely be felt - literally hundreds per month - some barely registering on seismometers. Even minor quakes can move the ground a few millimeters to several centimeters, or even half a meter, which means every so often, one would need to dig up and repair lines that have been damaged or destroyed due to the seismic activity. That adds greatly to the cost.

    • @GuyWithAnAmazingHat
      @GuyWithAnAmazingHat 7 років тому +19

      I find the cables really interesting, they give the landscape some layering detail, whether it's in a street or across a country side, they provide some sense of scale and distance, which is why they are often used in anime and manga as back grounds.

    The song in this video is Awakening by Amarante!
    Link to their official video: ua-cam.com/video/YY7M6TFYsTk/v-deo.html
    One thing Jun and I both have in common when we edit is we build our videos around music that inspires us, which means I’ve often spent hours scouring the internet for appropriate songs we could legally use before even opening our editing programs. Amarante has been inspiring me for years, and when they released this song I absolutely couldn’t get it out of my head and knew immediately I had to use it for this video. I believe the music is what makes our videos, and I owe a great debt of gratitude to Amarante for producing such beautiful music yet freely allowing UA-camrs to use it. It’s thanks to artists like Amarante that UA-camrs are able to take their videos to the next level, and our channel wouldn’t be the same without them. If you like their music please follow their links and show them some love! :D

    My husband and I just returned from beautiful Japan. Our first visit was incredible. We hit the cherry blossoms at peak . I had watched some of your youtube segments for tourists prior to going. It was so helpful especially in regard to train travel (remembering to take your ticket after you enter) as well as all the buttons on the toilets ! Love the privacy music ! What a safe,clean,lovely country. Rush hour on subways was something to experience.
    It was amazing to see how many people can jam into a train or subway car !! Very punctual trains and subways ! The people were so polite and helpful . Shopping at Takashimaya department store was a wonderful experience with extremely attentive customer service . The conveyor sushi is a fun experience. We took our bathing suits but realized that is not kosher when enjoying the hot springs. No need to pack the suits !!
    Thanks so much for posting tips for guests in Japan.
    Blessings to you both !

    I remember when this video first was released from you guys. I remember the sheer awe and astonishment I felt while the sights interlaced with the music took me on a journey to remember. And remember I did, I have come back to watch this video multiple times in the past five years. In that time, so much in my life has changed, gone up, down, and sideways as life tends. Though every time I came to watch this video, none of it mattered. Seeing this video for the first time and multiple times following has enabled me to establish a remembrance of happiness that has become a crucial tool in wading through the rough patches in life.
    I appreciate so much that you had the vision and took the time to put this video together all those years ago.

      I've gotta disagree with you. There is so much natural beauty throughout the entire country. I live in Michigan and I adore this beautiful state. The Great Lakes are incredible and so are our wetlands and state parks. Get in your car and drive across multiple state borders and you'll see how gorgeous it is. :)
      However, I do agree that Japan is amazing!

      One of the pictures reminded me greatly of looking up at the tree tops from below within my tent at girl scout camp as a little girl in Virginia. So, the beauty is in the US, too. I was actually hoping that Rachel and Jun could do the same type of video in the USA, but it would necessitate them living in the USA for a year to capture all of the video.

    • @bakad5458
      @bakad5458 7 років тому +10

      ehh i agree and disagree with that, there is still is a lot of natural beauty in America, but it's not as spread out as Japan. plus i think that Japan feels/looks more "natural" because it's more uh authentic? traditional? not sure what word i'm looking for haha but yeah America still has some places that are really beautiful, just feels different from Japan (at least that's what i think anyways) but both still beautiful in their own ways!

      There's TOOOONS of natural beauty in America!! There aren't many countries in the world with untouched nature across just about every climate zone. You just might have to travel to see it!
      One thing I always miss here in Japan is what it's like to just drive through the hilly, wooded neighborhood streets in Cincinnati. Most cities here in Japan are crowded onto coastal plains and what isn't used for infrastructure is used for farming, so there aren't many trees until you go into the mountains. And because the cities are so crowded you can't really see the stars here much at all. I don't know what city you live in, but it's very possible that there's a lot of beauty there that you wouldn't really recognize until you leave and find out that doesn't exist everywhere. :) Like in Cincinnati in the evenings backyards will be full of hundreds of fireflies, and I just took that for granted my whole life growing up that that was normal. Here in Japan they're pretty hard to find. Jun was amazed when he first saw our fireflies in Cinci, and would just sit on the porch watching them!
      Keep in mind in this video I'm just showing highlights, which are framed to look the best we can possibly make them. If I had the time and money to travel all of America to do the same I guarantee that video would blow your mind as well. ;) Take a look at this subreddit if you haven't--they show beautiful pictures of natural landscapes around the world and they're labeled by what country/state they're from. You can easily see how beautiful America can be! goo.gl/WgiOYx

    Japan is so beautiful. This video made my heart ache with longing to go back.
    I went to Japan with my Japanese best friend's family ten years ago when I was fourteen. I spent time at their house in Tokyo and they showed me so many places all over the country. Japan truly mesmerized me.
    For the last ten years I have studied every aspect of Japan and it never bores me. I have never been able to afford to go back there yet, but soon I will graduate uni and if everything goes well, I will be able to afford to go there again. I cannot wait.
    Sorry for the super long comment, but this video really moved me. Please keep on making videos like you always have, they're amazing! Thank you for teaching me so much about Japan over the last 5 years and making the wait for a first-hand experience bearable!

    • @TheDrakon
      @TheDrakon 7 років тому +4

      Well, consider my comment as a call for an equal amount of shots of Jun. Does Jun have self-esteem issues and think he's not all that good looking? Even though I haven't watched any anime is forever, I also want to see more Asian looking people in anime. I have a friend who watches a really old anime (from the 70s? 80s?) and everyone in that anime is Asian looking, so there was a point in time when it happened.

    • @TheDrakon
      @TheDrakon 7 років тому +3

      I wasn't asking about you, I was asking Rachel and Jun. You seem to want attention because you love talking about yourself when nobody asked.
      I think it does have to do with self-esteem but most people aren't willing to admit it.

    • @seregruin
      @seregruin 7 років тому +36

      busi magen very well said, I feel the same way. Not everyone wants to stand in the spotlight, you don't need to have issues with self-esteem for that. you might even argue the opposite.
      Also, not a cry for attention, in my opinion, if you just calmly lay out your point of view.
      If Jun doesn't want to be on camera that much, that's fine with me. All the more enjoyable to see him pop up here and there :)
