    I won't lie, I was far too relaxed to even think about being sarcastic this time around. I do genuinely believe this is the most scenic spot in Tohoku. Anybody got any other recommendations for scenic spots around Japan? Let us all know below!

    Finally a new video from this channel! I'm brazilian and I have to thank you. A several months ago when I was looking for advices about start estudying japanese I'v found your videos about this subject and it was the most important tips among others that I could found. Most of the materials Im' currently using and the method I developed to study japanese by myself cames from your videos. As times passes it shows more and more effective. You saved me a lot of time and worries.
    PS: sorry for my poor english.
