Tsukuda residents at 2:30 AM (calling the police): Help! There is some strange guy walking around and talking to himself!!
Tokyo police: Oh it's allright, it's just honourable John Daub-san making another stream for his UA-cam channel.
These night walks are great! I watched it in my dark room with headphones and it felt like I was there 😌
These night walks, midnight snack and historical tours are my favorite formats.
I like when John feels comfortable enough to show us his nightly stalking process. Like a cat on the hunt... for vending machines, strange alleyways, and shrines... Keep an eye out for yokai. That water pump is probably the local kappa fill-up station.
John, I love your nocturnal alley walks/walking tours. I really enjoyed the last one. I cannot get over how quiet Tokyo is at 2:30AM. And those alleys look pretty safe compared to alleys over here. I would never think about going down any alley at 2:30AM here. I’m a night owl so it’s good to know when I come to Japan I can go for walks around 2-3AM and know I’m pretty safe.
This in one of the things I really love about living in Tokyo. It's a huge, sprawling modern metropolitan city and an old tiny village at the same time.
An entertaining and quiet night time stroll. 🚶♂️🌙
Plus John gets to use his golf ⛳ announcer voice. 😆👍
I got gosebumps when you were telling the story about the ghost crying :)
Thank you for doing this John! You must be a night owl at heart! My family really enjoy your videos.
Looks eerie and beautiful. Its a good thing you didnt encounter a lady wearing a trenchcoat asking if she was beautiful.
???I watch alot of scary or supposed paranormal videos on Nukes,Slapped Ham etc.Ive see lots of lady in white videos from japan, but never a trenchcoat lady.
It is unimaginably clean !!!!!!
I always loved the alleys in Tokyo. Notice, no matter how narrow they are there are always flowers and plants growing. Much pride of ownership. ✌️
Gotta love Johns stories whilst going down a dark alley.
John "this is an old hand pump, I'm not going to use it because it will make noise".
But we all knew you were going to pump it before you did it anyway John.
Love it. 😆😆😆
Hi John here I'm in Boston and I missed your live stream, being a night owl so when it's daytime there I'm awake for many of those live streams when most folks here on the east coast are sleeping. thanks again for sharing with us what is a true gem, that is this fantastic place, Japan!
I’m surprised on how clean everything is
That old tree at the temple was amazing. I love the level of respect Japan has for such things. In America that tree would have been slaughtered.😔 I hope you go back sometime and show it in the daylight, I love to get a better look at it. 🌳😊
Hi John ,Enjoyed the Video seen it on livestream earlier hope to see more night walks in the future 😀👍
At 43:02 John finally tells the ghost story that he foreshadowed in a live stream from Nov 22, 2017 titled "Question & Answer (aboard a train to Tokyo)".
John, love what you do. You had me at legendary alleys. Would love to meet up again one of these days.
That would be a lot of fun, Eric!
This might be an old video, but it refresh my mind everytime i watch this when i'm feeling blue
Whoa! This was an awesome live from Feb 2021! You realize that Japan is probably the only place where you can walk around the city, with a camera and do a live session, without being in danger. Although that shrine guy was pretty creepy. He was probably following you at a distance to make sure you were not up to something nefarious. Also, I think the UA-cam algorithm is at work here, because in your recent video, you mentioned that tree from the shrine (Japanese Summer Festival around Tokyo, Aug 5, 2023) and I believe this video is the first time you found that shrine! At least from your reaction. It was so cool that you touched that tree. A tree that has been there for thousands of years perhaps? Judging from the size of the trunk...it is so huge! OMG! So cool. I seriously have to go back and watch some of your lives during the pandemic. ❤ Great stuff.
This Reminds me so much of when I lived in Okinawa , I used to cruise the neighborhood's taking photo's of old Japanese Architecture. Did it during the day in Naha .
Reminds me of my mamas' karaokes 🎤 bar in Naha called Machiko named after my mama.
@@anitakinman8881 , What Years did Machiko have here Karaoke bar open. Wondering if I was there.
@@franco3584 I was there at her bar in 1990 and it was still in operation in 2017 as far as I know.
I alwalys liked in these streets how green stuff always is positioned or growing with a meaning with every spot or hole
I really like to walk in night with my favourite songs playing 😊
Great live stream. I missed most of it, but I caught you 5 mins before the end. I really love that Tree shrine you found.
Aww...man! I totally missed this livestream. So glad for the replay. I just love your late or should I say early morning walking adventures. So nice to see people leaving their bikes outside and not have to worry about anyone stealing them. Wish everywhere was like this. I'm so excited to see a video of your special Shinkansen experience.
I am really jealous. Japan looks very safe and that even in a really big city like Tokyo.
Japans way is the right way. Protect what you love and what you need. Culture is a treasure that must be guarded. If that doesn't happen, everything will break.
I know what im talking about. Japan is the best! ;D
Thank you John great walk and content felt like we were there with you.
So peaceful....
Never thought about going to Tokyo before seeing these late night walk streams. I don't like large, densely populated cities but I could totally see myself exploring an area like this in the wee hours. And the streets are so clean it almost has an indoor feel.
Great John . I too have done so many Crazy Night Walks during My stays . It gives you a very different Feeling . May be ,Japan is the Only safe Place in this Planet to Practice this kind of Excercise .
Thank you for another great video.
A treat to watch, thank you
Always amazing. Thank you for sharing it. ✌️
Been watching more and more of your videos John. I can't wait to get back to Japan. It's been so long since 2019. Ugh! But , yeah I just love Japanese alleys like those, haha.. I rented a house for a week in Kyoto and the house was in front of a tram railway, and then narrow alley on the side of the house to walk to the other side where the shopping arcade. It's dark but not creepy at all. I miss that place.
I liked this stream, it was quite peaceful. John, there is an episode on Netflix filmed in Japan where local people talk about their ghostly encounters in Fukashima (I think). It's called Unsolved Mysteries, Vol 2 episode 4, I think.... episode is called Tsunami Spirits. Hope you see this.
This is a nice neighborhood and no one parked on the roadsides. The city hall regulates street parking very well
Nice video, John. I see a Canadian guy in Tokyo did a livestream with the same subject and a similar title hours after you did yours. 🤔
Your videos are amazing. Next time, i'll go with you. If I can with my disability (NLD and autism) Keep up the good work. Grtz from 🇧🇪
I love this video ...very interesting and different... I like the silent mood :) creepy but cool
so relaxing. alleys oh so tidy dont have to worry about kicking into stuff. tree hug the best. i watched a video on Yatai in Tokyo enjoyed watching the vendors set up their stores n serving piping hot noodles soup. why dont we see them on your night walks.
this was another epic livestream!
good call on the bikkle. it's good stuff
Didn't get to watch this live unfortunately, but enjoyed it no less.
I can see recalling the ghost story still freaks you and I don't blame you - No one ever truly 'believes' in ghosts until they have an encounter themselves... I know from personal experience. Like yours, mine was a benign encounter, but it still gives me the chills retelling it.
The discovery of that jizo shrine with the large tree was also a nice surprise. Very cool! 😎👍
This was a nice walk John. Thank you.
43:05 - John shares a ghostly tale...brrrr
at the ultimate street festival Furusato someone gave you an in-person super chat too.
Right! January 2020! Good memory :) we used it to buy a bento.
In any other country john would have been questioned by the police but in Japan it's cool..amazing country
Tsukushima is one of my favorite areas in Tokyo!
love ur channel bro. so cool to watch. new friend here.
Thanks John. Fun and interesting video👍🏼
For visitors coming to Japan, it's always best to practice etiquette at shrines. Before taking photos/videos, it's always best to first show respect. Simply bowing before entering and doing a small prayer at the alter. No need to ring the bell, but would be good to at least bow first and pay respects. Photos and video taking are fine after at most unless signs prohibiting are posted. It's kind of like someone coming over to your house and before saying "hello", they bust out their cameras and start taking photos. 😇 Shrines are sacred and places of worship, not haunted places. Shrines are also not solely tourist spots.
I share this not to get too serious, but it is one of many special and intimate parts of culture that Japan has that is not often told by tour guides and others. I hope it brings a more special experience to your visit.
John watch out for the garbage trucks
They do love very fast in the middle of the night!
Hello John just catching up on your video's your to funny Awesome video.
How you made vast nothing and quiet into a great video I dont know... but please do this often!
"Bikkle The Drink for those who enjoy walking 🚶 down dark alleys in the Witching Hour" 😉
Most awesome!
Always more alley ways!
Ahh Man! I miss this so much! just walking around the empty streets of Tokyo at night. Btw. The bell on your bike sounds like the bell that Hector Salamanka ringed in Breaking Bad . Creeeepy 😂
Watching the replay and it feels like you were walking around on an old abandoned movie set.
8年前まで住んでました。
懐かしいなー。
John have you ever tried Streamlabs? You can stream with that app at 1080. Check it out
Thanks for the tip! There are some weaknesses in that, and using 1080p. Any weakness in the 4G LTE signal and the picture quality looks 2x worse but maybe I’ll give it a try. Appreciate it :)
Japan is so blessed with the most wonderful things.
Edit: I'm certain that "ghosts" are real, but I don't believe they are human spirits left after their death. They are spirits that never had a physical body to begin with.
Nice video! maybe you meet Japanese La LLorona!!!
Hi John I am from Seattle Washington in the United States can you make another video of another midnight walk and more city experience video in the day like for example Shinjuku to Yo yogi? I like your video so much so I am practicing Japanese right now. I would like to go and visit Japan in the future.
Hi John, Rolly Edward from Indonesia here. Just want to know love your video as always. Last time visit japan its January 2020. Its shame that i can't visit japan now. I hope you stay healthy always.
Thank you Rolly!
This was fun 👍
He seems not to worried walking down them dark alleys
bro please talk about your ghost story it really intrigues me
Wow! You could not do this safely at 0230 in any city in any country on planet earth except,
Tokyo.
Love the midnight stalker walk John!!! Shhhhhh 🤫😮😊
Bikkle drink is it like yakult!! ?
Do more videos like this thanks!
Thank you john your live streams make the day go by more fun. I have a question can we get an update on the pokemon center
It's kinda creepy like an abandon city.
I lived in Tokyo for 4 years, and these early morning moments going to work were my favorite. My Japanese wife just doesn't understand. Moving back when all this clears, and will be appreciating it even more.
My partner is Japanese. It's amazing the difference in perspective between locals and foreigners. I'm always saying 'You're not Japanese!'.
@@roninmusashi I think its true for anybody for their "hometown", she doesn't notice the beauty, safety and cleanliness like I do being "in awe", because she always has seen it. I grew up in NYC, feel safe in most areas and dont really notice the decay (well some of it is hard to miss) even late at night, however visitors would likely be freaked out by the potential danger or see the grime and dirt.
@@5chevin5 I feel sorry for her when we visit. I am like an over excited puppy at every little difference. For her it is just 'home'.
Calpis...so good.
John... is there any possibility yakuza hiding somewhere down the alley?
Only u make alleys interesting
this is exclusive...wow
Time for a street market , street food tour... somewhere in day...
Soon, the situation is getting better where it’ll be possible especially with the vaccine started in Japan.
Perfect night for REDRUM!
Check out all the roads! Smooth and clean surface! Finding roads like that here in America is like finding a needle in a haystack.
Quite scary alleys at night , like a ghost town at that time !!! Good stream though , arigato 👍!!!
John ,Still I am trying to guess how you hold your Camera . Its One thing ,You should do some what tactfully ,specially in Certain Places of the Japan .
An old historic building from the 1960s. Do you have any idea how funny that sounds to a Londoner?
One more alley sunday
So cool and quiet, not USA for sure.
love it when u go alone roaming in streets
I’m sure to do it again next Sunday night :)
@@onlyinjapanGO its a promise than ill be waiting
Thank you for your videos.
These are the good ones! So many stories only told by your imagination and truths! Please apologize to Kanae, but we like these midnight runs! It gets you ready for when you have to make midnight feedings when u have kids lol😜😜🤞
Scary
You can make this into a series.
9:06. What was that scream!? Anyone notice that?
This is like a video game from call of duty! Lol
Me waiting for a Tanuki to shop up like in PomPoko when John entered the first alley
Whats up John
I can just imagine.. you're walking in a dark alley in some neighborhood late at night, and a window is thrown open upstairs and someone yells "Dorobo!!!!" 🤣
Omg 😳 THAT could happen?!? ....
@@onlyinjapanGO It's what I'd worry about most, I guess... 😁
i'm not going to lie it's safe but dang it just looks way way to creepy....just watching this i feel like something is going to jump out from some where......
Hey mum there’s a strange man with a camera and a light. Don’t worry it’s probably one of those Gaijin youtubers.
An in person Superchat would be awesome. Would you be offended if instead of cash I offered you large ruby?
😂 ♦️ I would just nod my head, take it and quickly walk away.
Night owl aren't you! Please take care! Aloha nou
