Boyfriend/Girlfriend Wishing Shrine & PRETTIEST Anime Street in Kyoto Japan

[@liam6345]

I like your simple editing and the fact you don't have an outro for your videos. You literally say goodbye and the video ends! These videos are straight to the point, not clickbait and I like your personality. All of those factors make for pleasurable viewing. Great job!

[@defacto.3052]

RandomSora It's authentic

[@peggyhill7283]

Mikey Chen.....I have to tell you I love your videos when you travel. So far this one of Kyoto is my favorite. My dream as a child was to go to China, Taiwan, & Japan. You see, I don't walk anymore & it's difficult for me to travel.This is the next best thing. So I thank you. By the way you do look a bit like Jackie Chan.

[@dxelson]

Peggy Hill "a bit"

[@MikeyChenX]

Thanks for watching :-)

[@rksq6009]

Peggy Hill korea is out of mind

[@bobbywhite5319]

What was said at 7:50? A couple __________?

[@peggyhill7283]

Bobby White..... Geisha

[@untamedpandasweg8986]

Not gonna lie, Inuyasha being in the Thumbnail made me watch this. :)

[@coffeesticks_03]

Seeing all those girls with their kimonos enjoying the night was so cool! It's weird to think teenagers like me have such different upbringings and experiences growing up. It looks so fun.

[@cutedubuyah]

you are my favorite travel vlogger! i never get sick of your content! cannot wait for your next travel destination!!

[@bumble144]

I love how authentic this is, Mikey uncut, like seriously raw so cool

[@lanel-2904]

I love love love your vlogs! I used to watch your other channel with you and your friend trying different foods and I just stumbled across this one. looking forward to viewing the season. Thanks for sharing!

[@robertengroff5112]

Another great video Mike. I'm very passionate about traveling, there's nothing I want more than to see the world... But due to the fact that I'm a fairly poor guy I don't get to travel often lol, so I love you're travel vlogs because its the closest I can come to seeing other countries at the time. I always get a bit jealous but Japan is at the top of my list so Im reallly loving all the Japanese videos. You live an amazing life Mike, congratulations to you on that.

[@robertengroff5112]

Oh and I truly want to thank you for you're love/promotion of Sedona, I've decided to make it the destination of my annual vacation this year. Before I found your channels I knew nothing at all about Sedona.. Now Im leaving for Sedona in 13 days!! I couldn't be more excited!

[@LFTDoffroad]

I visited Kyoto a couple years ago and loved it. I would definitely like to go again. Thanks for sharing

[@randomgames671]

Inuyasha

[@GravaticBurst]

I never finished it. Iron reaver soul stealer!

[@indirapoitier338]

That was a pretty cool watch. thanks Mike, always refreshing to watch :-)

[@mehdan2]

FYI, the area you went to Gion, is adjacent to Kiyamachi, Kyoto's red light district. Hence the "seedy" vibe at night.

[@MsCherade9]

mehdan2 Precisely. Always check where the red light district is in a new city and stay away, unless that's what you are looking for. That goes double when you don't speak the language!

[@sushh1]

Dang this channel is great.

[@rachaelmin4234]

That joke was amazing,i loved it thanks mikey chen you made my day

[@richardschindler8822]

Here I sit in downtown Brooklyn eating day old pizza as you eat all that amazing food. Something wrong with this picture.

[@nat1nat0]

Mikey I love your channel!!! It's so useful I'm planning to go to Japan in December as well 🎋

[@gardengalsu]

Yay, Haleiwa shirt (Hawaii No Ka Oi). I went to the same area as you and got excited, too, over seeing kimono clad women; so pretty.

[@swiftangel88]

I used to live in Kyoto, went to school there in my early 20s, this really brings back nice memories of Kyoto. Best way to get around, it by bike. Had a mountain bike then and went to see so many cool temples and shrines. Good nightlife area, is Kawaramachi, yes there are quite many Yakuza in Kyoto but they don't bother you, especially if you are a foreigner.

[@23valleyroad]

Great idea Mike is to accept all gifts and offers and sign cards from Mr Chan and I think you are satisfying both sides with happiness x

[@gabmay1682]

I would definitely trip on that bathroom doorway in the middle of the night!

[@7Bangtan4ever]

I love this vlog post! Keep it up dude! 👍🏼

[@JeroenNX]

Great videos, keep up the good work!

[@purplelolip0p]

I'm glad that you enjoyed the views at Shirakawa dori street. It was certainly a pity when I was there with my family and they didn't enjoy as much as I did and we ended up staying there for only 10min :(

[@xAA7]

3:48 Smooth Mikey :D

[@Phoenixspin]

But he didn't close the deal. He let them get away.

[@joy12division]

Their beauty was so stunning he forgot how to english.

[@layllaby]

Grats on almost 100k! been here since 40k :D

[@LessTalkMoreDelicious]

So awesome. Didn't know Kyoto had a lot of shady characters haha. It looks very pretty though. Love the stone streets. Can't wait to visit soon!

[@drepcheese8957]

Hi! I really enjoyed Japanese series! If you're gonna go Japan again, make sure try some Ramens in Ikebukuro! Hanada, Aburasohoten, and Kuwahara is my favorite

[@luigigalvani6936]

awesome vid dude! just started watching ...

[@Tcwilliams07]

Ahh thank you for taking me on this adventure Mike. I truly hope you are enjoying yourself my friend

[@candysantillo3325]

That was extra fascinating for some reason.Will you be describing what you ate in the restaurant in another video?

[@MsCherade9]

Candy Santillo He already did on tge Strictly Dumplings channel.

[@StudioKDB]

Someone should make an Anime about you ;-)

[@Shrew-22O1]

K.D.Bryson they have cartoon called Jackie chan adventures.. 😂

[@horsesteppin5576]

this is like so cool. Mike you da best

[@halfapersonalityaquarterof9871]

Love the videos Mike

[@LangYang47]

My girlfriend and I will be traveling to Tokyo at the end of April. Watching your videos is making me super excited! How did you manage to use their subway without getting lost? How come you don't have a travel buddy?

[@murrr1808]

I love Kyoto! I've been twice and would go back in a heartbeat. It has such a wonderful atmosphere, although yeah, it's not the greatest at night. If you want a really cool shrine, try Fushimi Inari Taisha in southern Kyoto with its path lined in torii gates. It's amazing. And yeah, the food in Japan is amazing! I'm so jealous of what you ate, haha! Visit Osaka if you want a foodie's dream.

[@Naztalgic]

Awesome video I wanna go there now!!!!

[@dxelson]

Wish China preserved as much culture as Japan... :( cultural revolution destroyed huge parts of it...

[@akeenrunner]

Culture is not only preserved in relics and historical sites. As a nation with thousands of years of history, China is one of the most influential countries in the world, so despite what happened in the Culture Revolution, its culture is preserved in its people and their lives. As long as they live, the culture lives on.

[@radioclash84]

Maggie Cui not really actually. I'm a left leaning person and I think the communist revolution was necessary but it also did a lot of damage to the history of China. its like saying the pyramids lie in the hearts of every Egyptian but the monument itself is destroyed. these things do hold importance. I think the communist revolution did go a bit overboard.

[@nickkei2838]

The most recent holiday was the coming-of-age day on January 9. On that day, 20 years old girls would wear what's called a Furisode, a type of kimono. For guys, well, it is now less common for them to wear special clothes...

[@bukshotaz]

i hope you have more japan videos :)

[@waleriad.6727]

when i watched my first video on your channel by accident i told my boyfriend: he looks like jackie chan 😂 so funny that you mention this here ... love your videos!! can't wait to be back in japan in april :)

[@forepan9981]

awesome vlog. very detailed.

[@peaceharmony9339]

Thank you for sharing💕

[@5cats2kids8]

It’s weird, as an American, I never really thought about haunted places in other countries. Cool!

[@revinaque1342]

If I'm not mistaken, "Anime Street" is along the Shirakawa Stream from Memoirs of a Geisha. :)

[@Amy-Bo-Bamy]

Love the music at about 4:35. 💖

[@madisilver460]

perhaps all the assassins are off duty in the wee hours of the night and need a bite to eat? 😎

[@MsCherade9]

You're in the Midnight Diner!!

[@brokenadventurer]

Where is it?

[@kasai8560]

YESS I though that too😂

[@chrischaoranwang]

Yessss!~ Mikey ftw.

[@chaosmensch1]

Thank you for sharing your adventures with us! It makes me really happy :)

[@Yuo7766]

Jackie Chan! 😂 LOL at least you get free drinks and gifts 😆 💖💖

[@OnyaFreeman]

:O I would love to meet or see a geisha they are so pretty and I appreciate their art!

[@Nikita4ever7000]

Mickey Chen you should go to the Kyoto Kitcho Restaurant in Kyoto, Japan

[@cindimoore5389]

I've already said this so many times but, I love your videos so much!! You make me want to travel and I can't right now!! This one is gorgeous. When you were walking down the alley and the three older gentlemen were walking towards you, it looked like The Godfather and his henchmen!! I do plan to travel later this year and if I have half as much fun as you do, I will be thrilled!! Thank you, again, for all the pleasure your videos bring.

[@nukorial]

perfect for families and soulmate's..nice experience

[@rksq6009]

I love this kind of videos

[@rosielinaful]

Lol, Mike glad you are not traveling alone.

[@brittanycostales8794]

I saw this on my subscriptions and Immediately clicked on it😍😍.

[@brittanycostales8794]

The thumbnail caught my eye

[@POTUS123Y2K]

🌸❄️Very enjoyed thx Arigatō🍒❗️

[@Tipper1941]

finally Jackie chan pays off. Btw, my sis got some of that caviar looking seaweed from Okinawa. Waiting for a good occasion to make a salad.

[@TheCutieEnity]

that caviar looking seaweed is called sea grapes

[@CarrionSmile]

This video just sent me through a crazy rabbit hole of Googling houses for sale in Kyoto.

[@amychen4853]

what is the restaurant that you went that makes whatever food you want? It got me wondering!

[@Zoranurai13]

How do you get around, just using english?

[@patriciabryan9051]

Do you ever get sick? Noticed you live in SJ, I'm from Fremont, now live in Wash St. enjoy your channels!

[@ddrz09]

Aww Mikey~ Yeah man, thats something about Japan that kind of always has me (western foreigner male) on edge. Organized crime members don't really appear during normal business hours, but they are present indeed.

[@kbhasi]

2:58 I can SO imagine that, and a similar thing as well

[@countjanushassildor4727]

Iove this episode.

[@LoloXinChen]

Which manga was it that you had featured? Now I’m obsessed to find this little restaurant:)

[@XOXOcel]

Superb vlog!

[@InuYashaandKagomeROK]

That street was in Kenshin i think

[@OculusGame]

Fun fact: Yakuza provided disaster relief services immediately after the Kobe earthquake and the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.

[@VeronicaFernandez9109]

atleast it had a fridge. Ive been in hotel rooms that were big but had no fridge! what the heck right?

[@97_Manny_]

Dope vid 🔥

[@cafezo87934]

wow Japan is so LIT at night.

[@mujitsukyo]

Kyoto was my favourite. I think I would live there or near Kawaguchi.

[@nathanwidjaja3652]

"This street is like McDonald's- I'm loving it." Mikey Chen

[@rachaelmin4234]

the joke when you said 'this street is mc donalds, i'm loving it' classic i'll use that one

[@usuitakumi8179]

....Inuyasha.... . . . my child-->teenhood's crush x'D

[@misscuba2012]

Omg!!!!! Hahahahaha mine tooooooooo

[@Ze-Germanzuk]

Another video...Jackie :)

[@chinhphan70]

I'm gonna to Japan with my fiance and we're planning to go visit Kyoto. Does anyone know where the shrine is located in Kyoto? And what does it calls? Thanks!

[@arthurkao3208]

I was at that exact same shrine(I think) but in the middle of the day.

[@jacindaybarra]

Awe, I'm happy to see inuyasha-bae on the thumbnail

[@airplanejerk]

Mike, when will you come to Belize?

[@xenagarcia3871]

the Anime series is made into a live action and it's on Netflix it's very good I didn't know it was an Anime before awesome. it's really good.

[@kang5717]

Haha! That's so awesome to score some free drinks just because you look like Jackie Chan! :)

[@youtubelover7793]

when I saw the inuysha thumbnail I just had to watch it and when you said something about fox am just like shippo

[@LordFluffyTomo]

Where in Kyoto is this anime street?

[@99751]

can i ask what camera do you use it does a great job in low light

[@wmd40]

OMG I was thinking that big bald guy who walked past you in the one alley wearing a suit looked like yakuza!!! so maybe I was right 😛

[@chichibo]

I'm going to watch memoirs of a geisha after this ❤

[@nukorial]

wow just epic just lovely.

[@TallNinja041]

i hope your anime dreams came true !!

[@Ahkuji]

make what ever I want?! I'd have fun in there!

[@tay9313]

Lots of shady people? Probably because Yakuza in kyoto is having a big power struggle related to Japans biggest organization, its on the Japanese news everyday. However theres no shooting or killing, just lots of yakuza meetings.

[@titojones642]

dude how many times were you asked if you are related to Jackie Chen ?

[@trthths]

It seems like you know things (pretty specific details) before the actually visiting. Did you research?

[@machimigookbutterfly]

I am finally catching up, but something I was curious about - did you make a wish and has it come true?

[@sheenachavez4743]

Wow... that's cool.

[@Ibrahim-mx9wn]

You eat a lot of food. >< P.s. keep up with the videos.

[@tryforceofcurage]
