5 Must See Japanese Animal Hotspots

[@TheCptKirby]

"What is it you seek in fox village ?" still pure gold

[@slimyweasles4973]

+TheCptKirby Is that a reference to something?

[@TheCptKirby]

+Slimy Weasles Not that I know of, but still love it

[@lolpl0000]

chris's brilliant British sense of humour is why I love love love this channel. aside from being interesting and genuinely informative ofc xd

[@alaaobaid3363]

+TheCptKirby It gets me every time LOL :)

[@Serjo777]

+Slimy Weasles It's not a reference as far as I know, his voice and what he says just fits the fox's expression so well ^^

[@RachelandJun]

This video was perfect.

[@Gr8rThenU]

+Andrew Giunta (andrew24p) No. Chris and Natsuki forever!

[@colonelbaaah8735]

+Rachel & Jun were you the girl that was eaten?

[@AbroadinJapan]

+Rachel & Jun I was fairly worried you were going to kill me for that scream sound effect, while you were being eaten :-P

[@RachelandJun]

+Abroadin Japan But how could I kill you when I got eaten by foxes?! ....SPOOKY

[@AllIsWellaus]

Rachel and Jun Funny, I wondered if you guys knew each other.

[@AbroadinJapan]

BUT what was your FAVOURITE location! Let us know below!! And please don't forget to HIT LIKE if you enjoyed the video!

[@ninjajake1225]

+Abroadin Japan Definitely looking forward to Jigokudani and Cat Island!

[@AbroadinJapan]

+ninjajake1225 Between you and me, the monkeys are better - It's absolutely stunning up there in the winter. Afterwards, hop on the train back to Nagano and relax with some warm sake.

[@rachelandnick]

+Abroadin Japan The foxes were the cutest! :-) The cat island would be better if you got their via helicopter and preferably Jeff Goldblum was in the helicopter with you.

[@ninjajake1225]

Abroadin Japan Everything in that sentence sounds amazing. It will definitely be the first on my list of must-do's, especially if I get into the JET Program next year. I will be using Jurassic Park music on my way to Cat Island.

[@Nstev84761]

+Abroadin Japan I hate animals so none, but I would still go see the hotspots so all of them...

[@ShiroKage009]

I guess Japan has the real Easter Island.

[@TgarMask]

I get it cuz rabbits

[@ShiroKage009]

Michael Morton Well, and the chance of the chemical plant leading to super giant mutant bunnies.

[@INRamos13]

+ShiroiKage009 If they offer you eggs do NOT take them

[@ArezUk]

How many lives does Hitler cat have? NEIN!!

[@bunnysathome]

+ArezUk LOOOOOOL

[@marcioamaral7511]

omg that is so clever lol

[@pingASS_]

Oh, jew are so clever.

[@idkman5500]

+Ping ayyy

[@Nifuruc]

+ArezUk I have to admit... I had to smile at this... and I'm German ^^

[@fangirl_alice]

In October I went to Japan for the first time with Pac Set tours, and I went specifically on the pawprint pathways tour group. We went to almost every place on this list (Cat island, bunny island, Miyajima island, and Jigokudani) as well as quite a few other places. It's one of their most popular tours and they do it every year. The guides are amazing, and I highly suggest them. Also, I ran into Hitler cat when I was on cat island. My favorite place was bunny island, because it was so peaceful and beautiful, and I got to be surrounded by fluffy bunnies!

[@AbroadinJapan]

+lyssarox08 Wow! That's an amazing tour - I'm impressed to hear a tour guide that manages to fit it all in to be honest. All they need now is Fox Village and they've got the full set!

[@TheDogs4all]

that's it. Japan is the best country in the world. I have to go there now, for the animals!

[@GeneralGrizzy]

Until next month Chris * salutes *

[@internationallyME]

awesome video! did not know there were all these animal hotspots in japan :O

[@MicusII]

藍島(あいのしま）is also a cat island paradise. I went there when I studied abroad in Fukuoka with my Natural World of Japan class.

[@Krieghandt]

Normaly, reused videos are kinda boring, but the narration made this one. " luckily, I was with an American woman, and they ate her" LoL

[@eveningrice]

I really recommend Nara, it was amazing seeing the deer and the area itself is beautiful.

[@MrWatsonG]

its about time lad. I've been waiting ages for another video, I'v just been watching the rest on repeat in the meantime. I'm going to japam in 49 days and need as much information on japan delivered with as much sarcasm and dryness as possible please. Thank love. i appreciate it

[@jamanjesseman5560]

your editing skills are becoming most praiseworthy, as are your stories so devoid of any fiction. Keep making great videos Chris! I'm off to get me some tent insurance

[@rickipedia5854]

I wanted to make a joke about cat führ, but it wouldn't be reich.

[@AbroadinJapan]

+Rick Ipedia You've definitely won the best Cat Hitler joke Award on the comment section....so far

[@totalcrash5006]

+Rick Ipedia german: i didn't get it.

[@nedisahonkey]

Richard Winters Fuhr sounds like fur and Reich sounds like right.

[@lalalalallagalal3524]

Ned Gold reich=rich

[@unrulycrow6299]

lalalalallagalal Reich = right, mate.

[@blondyelowflash]

Chris: hitler cat where you going Hitler cat: paw-land

[@ZiZunLung]

Katzkrieg, here we go!

[@Ilyta94]

Genius...

[@ThePalaeontologist]

Planned from Purr-lin

[@notakanksh8752]

Oh no 😂

[@ななみちあき-z9f]

😂😂😂🇵🇱

[@kevinchen2676]

Japan has the correct idea when it comes to nature. Very environmentally friendly, and places where animals aren't afraid of humans. The trust due to generations of animals not getting hurt by humans is quite amazing.

[@martinlelarge]

I have been learning Japanese since the first of July! I've learned all the 2200 kanji from RTK1 and am at chapter 11 of Genki. It's maybe not that far, but I have school, so I'm happy with it. And you were my inspiration! Thank you for that!

[@johnallencrist.delosreyes9491]

"...an enigmatic leader who will meet you at the gates. Fox: What is it you seek in fox village?" 9:28 Hahaha! Got me crackin' up!

[@Sakured123]

Bro why arent documentaries ever this sarcastic. It's like a magic

[@MoDiscovery]

"like a magic" Natsuki

[@Seanyboy456]

When I visited Japan earlier this year, by far the best animal experience I had was at Akiba Owls Cafe. Highly recommend to those who want a true owl experience.

[@englishatheart]

No, absolutely not. I would love to visit Japan, but those cafes are seriously cruel. Owls are meant to be outside and allowed to fly, not stuck inside and chained down. It isn't right. Don't promote animal cruelty.

[@Skybreath17]

The bowing Deers were the best, need to go to Nara

[@Niberugi]

The "what is iT you seek in fox village? Always cracks me up !

[@HerScienceFiction]

I'm going to Japan in August, I really hope to make it out to some of these! I think I would love seeing the deer and foxes the most. Love your videos, as always! xo

[@KibatsuMusic]

Incredibly informative and entertaining! Watching you since 2013, keep it coming!

[@april8tost]

When I feel like not myself, I come see an old video of Broad's productions

[@halbwurm]

ah Kittler-San - we meet again! -_-

[@ralphkemp]

Love your videos Chris, they always make me wanna go to Japan.

[@rika-vq8wo]

ウサギの件、違います～よ。"""(>_

[@NaNa_W4NT5_F3MNM5]

別に、本気で信じているわけじゃないですから、大丈夫です。

[@ubayyd]

yes.

[@jolockery7654]

Loved the video, and also I really loved the live show with Simon and Martina. You should totally collab with them again since they are moving to Japan soon.

[@AdrianPI]

While I was in Japan we visited Nara and Nagano. Both were fantastic and more than worth the trip! 💪🏻

[@ladyenelya01]

We've only been to Nara and Miyajima, so we've seen enough deer!! But when we come back to Japan we really want to visit fox island!! Thanks to you, Reachel and Sharla!!

[@matthewtaite1894]

Loving the new microphone!

[@AbroadinJapan]

+matthew taite Thanks for noticing! ;-)

[@ingridmelendez5103]

I'll be visiting Japan in June and have been going through all your videos. The reason I enjoy them tons has to be hands down your video narrating skills!

[@omnialicita9347]

Your videos have such a high quality of entertainment......its amazing!

[@YurimoHikashi]

Hyped to see at least one of those places on my Japan trip!

[@ThePalaeontologist]

This is becoming my favourite channel

[@SkellaBella1396]

Your narration is magical

[@adityasawant1]

great video =D. and happy birthday to me!

[@thsuperelite]

addy i think I'm a little bit late but... Happy Birthday ?

[@PaulaAngles]

I am not the sort of person who comments on KZbin videos, but I just wanted at least just once to let you know how much I enjoy your videos and specially your smooth sarcasm. Just wanted you to know 😊

[@kickkatz8133]

Bowing deer of Nara park is the best! ! They're the cutest and divinest animal in the world ! !

[@connormatthews522]

The macaques look so serene and wise haha

[@elindred]

you could be the next David Attenborough, specializing in freaky Japanese micro-ecosystems

[@bealetm]

I thought he could be the next Anthony Bourdain

[@juliashenandoah3965]

So many lovely animal parks! Even tame deer.... I love it

[@ninjajake1225]

As a cat owner, they do eat through the family's salary. But it was interesting to see you attempt a duo with a cat. I admire your foolishness.

[@jenniferstine8567]

I had twins. Having them need the same vaccinations at the same time, be fixed at the same time etcetera was the big wallet eater. However it made it where I could buy just one type of product. No need to buy kitten and adult food and hoping that they eat the proper one. We tried to limit how much human food they ate. Honestly the only way we could eat our meals was to feed them first and hurry up with ours. They made excellent dish washers. We had to have their food and litter delivered because we had trouble trying to lift these things. It wasn't much of a price difference. I live in a desert, so walking a dog isn't appealing. Also I was in college with most of my time away from home. So them being able to care for themselves was a plus. They were happy just watching TV all day. I think mine might have been unusual because they were really interested in doing things with me.

[@ElCracko]

"Up until then, when I thought rabbits, I've thought cute, cuddly.." When I think of rabbits I think of a Python and a hand grenade and a new addition to the list has to be Re:Zero and the rabbit encounter.

[@brunocardinale2798]

Greetings from Spain! I just wanted to say congratulations for the video and your channel. I'd like to spend a long time in japan, and for that purpose I find your videos useful, informative and fun to watch. Thanks a lot, this video deserves a like and a share.

[@KRAZyNESS18]

your videos make my day I think I watched all of them at least twice I cant wait to go to Japan

[@QuimNinjas]

I definitely read the title as animal HOTPOTS and was only slightly disappointed to find out it wasn’t about different Japanese animal stews

[@-73-]

While I was on a trip with my school from Wales to Fukui japan we stopped in nara on the way back to Kansai airport and it was brilliant, the deer really do bow!

[@MrLivinglife800]

I will say that I've visited all 5 of the animal hot spots in your video and my favorite, while it's not an easy choice because I liked all of them so much, is probably Zao Fox Village. The winter time is better as they have thicker coats and like to roll around in the snow. Rabbit Island (Okunoshima) comes in second place as the rabbits were very cute and the World War II history on the island made it even more interesting for me. Seeing the Poison Gas Museum and old gas store houses really makes a person think about how awful the conditions must have been during the war. Miyajima had "The Great Tori" out on the water, which was very beautiful to see at sunrise. Nara, Nagano, and Tashirojima were also very fascinating locations to explore. Japan is a beautiful country with so much history and culture. :-)

[@jordansterry1537]

Loving the editing

[@MrBritaus]

A return to the acerbic wit that we have come to expect and look forward to. Good stuff.

[@rubychen2635]

Nara is soooo wonderful!

[@ForeverEater]

yay! another video! it's felt like an eternity since the last one. :)

[@KRAZyNESS18]

finally I have been waiting for a new video

[@MysticTruhan]

Cat Island deserved to win all the awards. Easily the most cute and cuddly, most enchanting, most cativating, and most surreal by far.

[@TopperRico]

I find it amazing to see the deer and rabbits so close to humans without any fear.

[@Lapjeskat]

I've been to fox village, inspired after seeing your and rachel's video, but I have strong doubts about the place and I'm hesitant to recommend it to others. The foxes walking around in the big penn looked overall okay, but the foxes in the welcome area show signs of stress, are chained to or locked up in small crates in the sunlight in 40 degrees and the mini horses in the petting zoo are heavily neglected. All skin and bones and no care for their hooves at all. So yes, it's not all rainbows and sunshine.

[@andresacosta5318]

Christel Brouwers yeah. I just went two days ago in the beginning of winter. And the ones in the “petting cages” were all clearly not having it and either trying to break out or ready to bite anyone anywhere them

[@Freddie7010]

I think Monkey Village at the top of a mountain just outside of Kyoto is worth a mention too :)

[@pergunnareriksson]

Thanks Chris! Tent insurance is now top of my list.

[@klarastern5597]

love your videos... your sense of humour and your cute accent make me happy :) thx

[@Nstev84761]

you're awesome Chris

[@AllieeLee]

Very well made video. Your videos are always highly entertaining, but this was very cinematic :o

[@Kaaru5344]

Great video. Looking forward to seeing more from you.

[@megroha0000]

Feeling oddly accomplished for getting here earlier than months after upload, really interesting video! Basically all the places I need to be!

[@miso9896]

dunno but i always go back to this vid whenever im wanderlust-ing. tis my dream to visit these places with my younger bro

[@ThePhantomGazz]

Awesome video! More please.

[@masarutodaiji]

So relaxed to watch ! I like this this so much ❤

[@nemusworld]

I just went to see the deer in Hiroshima and the rabbit island. It was indeed a great experience. Though the rabbits in the rabbit island were fewer than before, it made me feel the real past of the island

[@katorox248]

i really enjoyed this video! the scripting was perfect :) i haven't watched your videos in a while but you have definitely improved! :D

[@manu8926]

Thanks for this video! super fun and interesting too! much love from italy

[@lildreamertina]

lovely as always!

[@moriah93ohio]

All of them look great to visit. I do really want to visit Cat Island.

[@xJestahxMoAx]

Definitely missed your videos and sence of humour please make more

[@Toddis]

The red fox 🦊 is my spirit animal, id love to go there some day

[@flickles]

I highly recommend the currently airing bbc documentary called Japan: Earth's Enchanted Islands if you're interested in wildlife in Japan. It's absolutely fascinating!

[@anima099]

I've been to Nara twice and an Owl Cafe once in Harajuku's famous Takeshita street. I gotta say, seeing wild animals mingle and roam peacefully with civilization should be the aim of a utopia. Also, feeding Nara deers and getting swarmed is always a fun prank to make on someone who's doing it for the first time. Make sure you're recording! Did it with my mum and she was both screaming with joy and terror.

[@melindajohnson383]

Hi ya'll! From a southern US fan. When I grow old I want to be the crazy cat lady. So my fav place is the cat island. I just want to kiss them and hug them... Theyre graceful, intelligent, instinctual. Thanks for sharing. Your always a good watch.

[@jackblue1829]

Rachel and jun secretly in the video twice.

[@OsaruKuri]

Yes! A mew video finally!

[@mitsukostoddard9016]

Your videos are getting me through college, thank you so much!

[@VeryLastAirbender]

I've been in Tokyo for nearly 2 weeks and I've only seen cats with weird arse looking tails everywhere. I mean they're cute. Cute little mutants that is.

[@lindsey4721]

brilliant video! :) thank you for the travel inspiration!

[@jakejake1231]

It seems like every time I wish for a video, the wish is granted.

[@Retro-Japan]

THIS VIDEO NEEDS MORE VIEWS!!!!!

[@perky137]

This was really well made fella.

[@AndsenPhren]

Another awesome video Broad. Should have that media empire in no time. ;) Favorite Location: Fox Village ( couldn't think of a clever reason why I just like foxes)

[@TheHoruru]

"Rabit motives still remain schrouded in mystery." Oh my innocent Brittish friend.

[@MrMatheus2099]

I have seen those 2 women before. I liked the video, keep making these awesome vídeos!!!!

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

I love that ending! And Noiz from DMMd would love the rabbit island :)

[@Kjersten_w]

yay, new video!!! ive been waiting for this

[@rachelruthfrankle3905]

Lovely video I’m planning a trip to Japan next year for my birthday with my mum

[@ItsMixedUp]

please do a day in a life i think that would be cool to watch. like to see the landmarks and the transport etc i think thatll be really interesting. Nice video as always :)

[@zacharyolson754]

Man I think your awesome. I was starting to wonder when your next vid was coming, so thanks your content is always very enjoyable :) can't wait to see the next one

[@Hitsuji_Suji]

Your videos are really cool!

[@stellah7929]

The charmingly husky voiceover for the enigmatic fox elder is still hilarious to this day =D

[@ignatiuslim7457]

One of my favorite video. I would describe this video as a cute video

[@Shadow-yu7vl]

your videos are awesome.. cant get enough of your humor :p

[@jellybeangod]

excellent decision to upload today and not later in the week
