[@MissAnthrope]

Does anyone else find Sophie's presence to be very comforting? Like everywhere PJ goes, Soph is there, a little bit a head of him and to the left

[@eliwest3393]

MissAnthrope his intrepid adventuring partner

[@empty912]

Probably because they're together lol

[@leighnemicah]

I love it when she appears on his videos. She doesn't get enough recognition but she's equally as perfect as PJ.

[@Lisallamaa]

Yeah they're so magical together. She seems so sweet and genuine

[@anoja31]

The lamp documantary

[@riakristine2040]

You can really see the huge amount of effort put to this vlog! So beautiful!

[@KickThePj]

i edited so much my hands fell off. thank you!

[@riakristine2040]

OMG you replied i love you so much

[@AnitaDollar]

KickThePj worth it

[@yukiandkanamekuran]

Ria Kristine 1K Likes!

[@dittolockwood5899]

Agree My tears flowed out very hard because of this

[@justashjd]

I don't know why, but this genuinely made me tear up! It's just so beautifully shot and edited that it took me out of my life for 13 minutes and let me escape with you to the land of my dreams! Now THIS is how you make a Japan vlog...

[@justashjd]

I really needed this today 😊

[@KickThePj]

thank you very much :)

[@justashjd]

😱 No.. Thank YOU!

[@narendrasharma8568]

Japan is all about respect

[@ashaj4956]

This is the artsy version of pewds japan video

[@Sohodollie]

; Asha On one hand you get memes, on the other you get art

[@hasoon5630]

They should go on more trips together so we can get the best of both worlds

[@alexiapenaflorida6828]

Jack, Pewds, PJ, dan, phil, and Chris arenthe perfect friend group that I would happily join

[@Lux-yc9lc]

The editing in this was nothing short of a masterpiece! It was so beautiful. The music was perfect as well, I was captivated in the moment the whole video. Astounding work as usual.

[@Rizasaurusrex-yt]

Arcanum Lux I was amazed it was all so beautiful and relaxing

[@KickThePj]

thank you very much for the kindness!

[@shivraj6664]

KickThePj I'd kiss the editing if it were a person.

[@martged4212]

Indeed it s brillant! The music is good too! good thing that he is a filmmaker

[@Gungus-v1g]

DNAWKCARC Read the description

[@TheRainydayvideo]

What a beautifully made film. I can tell you were editing in your head as you went along, planning shots that would make for a great piece. Absolutely gorgeous!

[@rodyinjapan]

I LOVE JAPAN MORE

[@shivraj6664]

Still waiting for the full length feature film on the lamp.

[@carmenrae5718]

yeah 9 moths later and im waiting for a full length documentary abot a lamp post smh

[@LaytonObserves]

I'm glad you exist.

[@KickThePj]

that is very kind, thank you :)

[@vaitallity]

DROP EVERYTHING PJ UPLOADED

[@pennystollak8609]

Vaitallity You forgot the comma

[@artsysundae]

And this kids, is why we need commas.

[@sendhelp4405]

Who needs 'em, i would upload pj.

[@zztopz7090]

Penny Stollak It's different if we were writing an essay. Sometimes commas are weird in texting or in comments because you write things like you say them. Even in literature, when you want to be expressive, the rules of punctuation have to be broken at times.

[@sadientra9663]

I purposely put off watching this video until I was ready for bed because I knew it’d be like a mini movie that made me feel happy and relaxed before going to sleep. Love ya PJ, this was amazing.

[@KickThePj]

thank u!

[@loopay1000]

Sadientra me too!

[@Dispatern]

Same here ^_^

[@wavyseaweed]

Marzia and Felix's Japan vlogs were great but THIS is the upload I was waiting for

[@Dispatern]

I eagerly awaited all of them ^__^

[@yamyam7918]

For 13 minutes this felt like a pleasant forever

[@xThePinkApple]

perfectly put

[@daysleeper999]

Exactly.

[@sarahdowling4798]

Pj is single handedly the most aesthetic person in the world

[@kpvdnber]

Well, PJ and the art department of Game of Thrones.

[@liv7511]

Watch Marzia's

[@kawayo1582]

How to go to Japan and NOT disrespect them

[@bonsaigecko9153]

I thought this said "how about go to Japan and NOT disrespect them" and I was so confused and was like "how did he disrespect anyone?"

[@Kaimli]

The Songs used: Part 1: Hate yourself by TV Girl, French Exit Part 2: Bradycardia by Cullah, Trinity Part 3: I absolutely couldn't find it.... sorry. Technically it should be a song by Komiku but I really couldn't find it on soundcloud. Part 4: The Blonde by TV Girl, French Exit Part 5: The Ballad Of Ali Dia (metropolitan synthpop) by Keshco, Filmmaker reference Kit

[@sunnydale22]

Thank you!!

[@cheve2960]

thx! :)

[@user-mn2xk6nq7y]

Been waiting for that lamp-shot (no but srsly this was BEAUTIFUL)

[@junekurosaki]

Jana same 😅😅

[@KorbyPonyo]

PJ is the guy that you'll get annoyed travelling with because he records EVERYTHING. But you ended up forgiving him since he makes cool videos out of it. Love you PJ!

[@cott0ntop]

ok can we please pause and talk about the HAPPY SEAL AT 9.05 HE’S SO HAPPY

[@KickThePj]

he was SO happy it's insane

[@lullabybin]

Grace Winters I took a screenshot of him :)

[@becky7866]

this video makes me want to go out and live

[@vaitallity]

Your choice in amazing music always blows me away

[@part-timepartytime9621]

Do you know what the first song is? Or at the very least which artist it's by? Don't really feel like sifting through years of discography from multiple artists just to find one song tbh EDIT: It's "Hate Yourself" by TV Girl and it's off their "French Exit" album.

[@kornkakes2408]

Is there such thing as aesthetic aesthetic? as in the perfect aesthetic as an aesthetic.. cause damn he sure got it

[@chrislegge3504]

Bro with out a fkn doubt you are the most talented on KZbin when it comes to creativeness, this is nothing short of perfection. Good job man, keep it up peej.

[@KickThePj]

thank you chris! :)

[@user-gm6hz3zo9v]

I am glad you loved my country, thanks for visiting Japan! Hope you'll be doing alright in your country, too! :)

[@husainiismail3512]

The lamp documentary is finally up!

[@Barbistoria]

LOL

[@erinjewell9245]

I have died every day waiting for this video

[@KickThePj]

welcome back to the living world

[@erinjewell9245]

KickThePj I screamed

[@user-iw3yo6sf8c]

Erin Jewell I would too, girl.

[@abbeytpwk]

i may be pathetic but im full on crying because 1. this is such a beautifully put together video and 2. i want nothing more than to go to japan for a bit and experience everything i can in that beautiful country

[@Clara-Silvana]

Hi PJ! I knew that in your Japan Haul you mentioned you've had a lot of footage so I was expecting something cool, BUT not this COOL! Your editing is mind blowing! I'm glad you took your time to create such a unique vlog! You inspired me, thank you! Keep up with the great work! xoxo from Romania

[@MissAnthrope]

Incredible filming and editing ! Such a perfect combination of the beauty of Japan and the KickthePJ style

[@MayMae]

Yeah I agree it was so calming and so Pj-esque I loved it !

[@Clementine_Cat]

Was expecting more lamps

[@KickThePj]

this information on how much I film lamps is fake news

[@AntjedePantje]

Does this mean we're not getting a full documentary on that lamp? :c

[@naero6156]

So the pew news is FAKE!!!!!!???????!?!?

[@Lily.valkyrie]

best comment

[@justanothergoat1132]

Had to watch this on the tv to get the full experience of the amazing cinematography. Well done PJ!!!!

[@LizardaWizard]

Honestly if Pj released every bit of footage he got from this trip I’d watch all of it in one sitting and wouldn’t get bored once

[@noodlekakadoodle4204]

Could be a promo video for Japan as a country

[@lushvet]

How. Is. Everything. You. Do. So. Perfect. Peej. Serious. Question. Tell. Me.

[@rebeccarapp3498]

Akshay if you take a look at Felix's Japan vlog you will see that a large portion of footage with PJ in it is just people asking if he got the shot yet it's pretty funny actually

[@lushvet]

Rebecca Rapp ikr!! Most of the time he's just seen trying to get the 'perfect' shot lol I died when Felix asked him 'dafuq u doing boi' pksksj

[@sketchios5158]

RIGHT?!!! same

[@peloky16]

Hanna Montana says nobody’s perfect and that she’s gotta work it again and again to get it right. I guess PJ defies the rules of Hanna Montana. (Jk, he’s a normal human just like us)

[@louismyatt1507]

Akshay I mean the only thing he did was go to Japan with a expensive camera, record B-Roll, crop he clips and put free music behind it

[@possumnest7]

i super-regret not watching this the minute it was uploaded. for some reason i tend to procrastinate watching your videos, but man i gotta learn to stop because, like everything you do, this is a genuine work of art. every single shot is so beautiful and perfect and creative. it could be a promo just for the whole country of japan. i’ve always considered you to be the most creative youtuber, and this just confirmed that. pure creative magic.

[@vitoriafurlanes5847]

this video deserves so much more appreciation :(

[@sonyachu6863]

God damn, Mr. Liguori...That's not an adventure, there is whole life in this vid Love it

[@justagirl4828]

What a beautiful video

[@TheRainydayvideo]

What colour profile do you film in also? Really nice grade on this.

[@camillapeeters1668]

i was wondering this too! the colours look insanely bright and beautiful

[@LilithLouise]

Yes, I wanted to know what kind of post production color grading was done as well and with what program? It’s mesmerizing and professional. I wound love to see more videos on everything revolving around production and editing! Brand new subscriber from this video!

[@tjmoore428]

Little late but I really wanna know this as well, if any creators have any suggestions that would be amazing

[@eveejk]

Honestly, i think this is my favourite video by pj

[@arkhamwarden1205]

Vlogging in Japan, the right way

[@KickThePj]

I was going to ask if there was a wrong way but yes, I suppose there definitely is.

[@siddhanttiwari5293]

KickThePj that's so subtle pj 😂😂😂😂 Paul must get a kick outta this

[@MilfLvr420]

Pj in his forte

[@HeyCarlaRawr]

Awkwar d Leaving comments everywhere is your forte.

[@hannisen123]

Awkwar d o

[@Kathrynpow]

THIS IS THE ONE OF THE MOST PERFECT VIDEOS ON THE ENTIRE INTERNET I LOVE THIS AND I LOVE VISITING JAPAN

[@reegodlevska4760]

Thanks for writing artists names in the description so much, PJ!

[@KickThePj]

check them out, they're all brill!

[@nogahaklai5995]

this is easily one of my favourite PJ videos already, it's so calming, beautifully shot and colourful. it's just so you and i love it very much

[@kelseyk68]

wow it's been quite some time since an official KickThePj bathroom review 😂

[@KickThePj]

og viewer

[@kelseyk68]

KickThePj with quality content like bathroom reviews, how could I leave? 😂

[@marisols.856]

perfectly edited footage of beautiful scenery AND TV Girl? favorite travel vlog of ALL TIME. this is spectacular work.

[@theothervoldemort]

this makes me feel like I was there the entire time, I don't know how you've managed to make your own experience nostalgic for us but thank you!

[@macimontenegro5883]

I've only watched a few seconds, and I already know how good this is gonna be.

[@montyrobins]

I been waiting for this! Also could you/are you make/design some kickthepj socks?

[@montyrobins]

Also if you do make socks, don't sell pairs and instead sell them as single socks so you can choose a different sock for each foot, cos really, who actually wears pairs of socks.

[@eliwest3393]

A set of 6 or so individual socks!

[@montyrobins]

like a pick n mix kinda thing. A bunch of different designs and you can just choose individual socks.

[@eliwest3393]

Monwey that'd be cool, but probably hard for Peej to set up

[@montyrobins]

LN Westacott I guess so, but it could just be like the pins.

[@bengregoire]

This is my favorite kind of video. I just feel good, and comforted.

[@ricardaseven6083]

Such a beautiful video! I really like how you worked slow/calm and really colourful/fast moments into this together and how the lights and skylight clips kind of work as a little break from taking in all your fascinating experiences - very well edited!! And it looks like you had a lot of fun :)

[@elijahjones3016]

OH MY GODDDDD THIS IS SO GOOOOOOD EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS AMMAZING. THE EDITING, THE MUSIC, THE SHOTS, THE PLACES, THE PEOPLE PJ THIS IS FANTASTIC

[@empty912]

This is beautiful but it must have been PAINFUL to edit

[@KickThePj]

only slightly painful when my hands broke

[@TheAmbisiniestra]

I remember watching this 2 years ago and to this day it still remains my favorite travel film. The shots, music, and editing are nothing short of a masterpiece! What a wonderful way to preserve memories

[@obiwans]

I still think about this masterpiece of a video a lot. you introduced me to tv girl, thank you so much!!!

[@extremelylongwords]

YES the vlog we've been waiting for.

[@samh3396]

this is pretty fuckin’ amazing

[@rodyinjapan]

indeed.

[@digitallife9757]

You are one great editor👍🏻 I can feel your real artistic sense and real love and respect for Japan. Good Music and good edit didn’t have to skip play. Thank you so much ☺️ for uploading this. From 🇯🇵

[@thisorthat7746]

this is, without exaggeration, the most aesthetically pleasing vlog on youtube. change my mind.

[@beck6332]

So aesthetically pleasing, makes me excited for my trip to Japan next year. You can tell a lot of work went into this. Does anyone know what kind of camera PJ used to film this and what kind of editing programs are good?Everything looks so beautiful and I want to make a video of my trip.

[@radio.silence7719]

I wish I could watch it now but I just left to go to school :( I’ll watch it when I get back because I’m sure it’s amazing!! I so wish I could go to Japan, hopefully one day!

[@ravena3235]

Fireflightt. this may be weird but... how is school? is everything okay? I'm asking because school can be very stressful and sometimes you just need to open up

[@sofia-on5sp]

It feels so weird for me too read this because I'm on my way to bed. 😂 Hope you have a fun time at school at least. 😋😘

[@mohdmarzad1109]

school is very stress for me. i always get depressed about school. so i started my channel on youtube . but i am not able to upload that frequently because my finals are coming so my parents are like go and study then only u will get good job (that is engineer or docter or something). But i dont like that jobs and i want to be a phptographer and a content creater. but i guess i have to struggle in my life

[@mohdmarzad1109]

Kanon Doll that is so nice of u to say. i dont know who u r but thank u for the kind words . my channel is maniac2 check it if u want to support me. it is a mess now but i promise that i will make my channel clean with more content.

[@radio.silence7719]

Fran aww that’s amazing to ask! Thanks so much!! Schools not too great but then not too bad either! I’m behind on my homework and I’m lacking a lot of sleep (and I’m pretty sure my grades have dropped) but, despite that school doesn’t actually seem too bad because I’ve been enjoying it more than ever thanks to my friends :) Thanks for asking

[@shayminlee8452]

I love how there were many different perspectives to the same trip that could be enjoyed by all. I hope you and your friends go for more trips and vlog them together!

[@sazari2861]

I love it. Every piece of it. Editing, footage, music, it was all beautiful. It felt like i was thrown in a warm colourful water while watching it, thank you for sharing your vision of Japan with us.

[@tlovemedia]

I can’t even express in words how mind-blowingly beautiful this video is. Peej, I forever aspire to have the level of pure creativity and the eye for simple beauty that you possess and put into each and every one of your videos.

[@jenrrr]

The toilet was by far the most exciting thing about the entire video

[@LnZdoop]

Jen R. Been to japan. The toilets are the best thing that will ever happen in your whole entire life.

[@KickThePj]

i reviewed pretty much every toilet I used. next time I will do a whole video dedicated to that

[@trappedinatreee]

Toilets in Japan are a little piece of heaven on Earth. I've been living in Japan and recently took a trip to the States, my tushie was so shocked by the cold toilet seats I nearly cried. Tearing up doesn't count.

[@MOKIKIMO]

This is the most beautiful Japan-trip video I’ve ever watched in my entire life. I am blessed. And also, it’s always fun to look at Japan from different perspectives since I’m a Japanese thank you PJ I appreciate your talent and love ❤︎

[@tirakivilahde]

What I love about Tokyo is how especially at sundown you see Fuji on the distance.. I lived in Japan for half a year and miss it terribly every day

[@carahr9413]

Your videos are so relaxing to watch, it's so good! I watch your video to relax then watch Felixs for behind the scenes

[@Dispatern]

When they have a day or trip together and they're all filming it, but Marzia, Felix and PJ all have their own view on things and their own way of filming and editing. This makes it really interesting to watch all of their videos of the same trip.

[@angele.3424]

I wanna go to Japan !

[@Ata-ie5hx]

Angel E. Come on!!!!

[@mabblepabble]

Words cannot explain how aesthetically pleasing this is and how much this made me want to go to Japan. It looks beautiful and amazing, especially with the editing!

[@juliadamtoft9108]

I've never seen such beautiful content in my life... Thank you PJ for giving me 13 minutes of beautiful footage of beautiful people in a beautiful country

[@bryn5238]

That trip looked so amazing! I'm really jealous. Absolutely fantastic videography too! I totally loved it! It's so cool you got to see The XX. I love them. Phenomenal job, Pj! You never fail to produce great content! 💙💙

[@felomb015]

V E R Y N I C E

[@princetaeho1520]

and this is why you're the reason i aspire to make films & do photography in the future i love you pj 💕

[@nia.j.h]

I regularly come back to this absolutely gorgeous video as a reminder of why I need to return to Japan

[@nickiamlive]

ahhh this vlog was so pure. i’m glad you guys had fun!!

[@gaytoast2382]

Hi PJ! I’ve been dealing with a lot (and I mean a lot) of sadness lately. Such as loosing my bf because of my anxiety and making a friend mad because I dated him. Another thing is that I ended up rejecting one of my friends because she asked me out and I didn’t like her that way. I felt awful cause she’s so sweet and I care a lot about her and don’t want to loose her. Your videos make me very happy. I’ve only been watching you for a few days but when I feel sad, frustrated, mad, or just can’t sleep, I come to KZbin and watch your vids. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me. You truly are amazing! ♥️☺️

[@Dispatern]

Things will get better. :) Until then, watch PJ, Marzia and Felix vids^^

[@Prinsomnia]

I have been revisiting your videos, especially this one to escape my quarantine blues. Mister PJ, thank you for what you do. 💖

[@somedudewithanappleonhisfa6819]

Damn. The editiing of this is so rhythmic and just effortless to watch. Appreciate the effort. Go PJ!

[@Joel-bx5gm]

I can’t stop watching this video the music and the editing is just amazing

[@estelle3979]

this is the best vlog i've ever seen and I've seen a LOT trust me on this one

[@fourthingsandawizard]

This was so beautifully filmed and edited, and all of the music fit so well. It honestly made me a little emotional, almost like I was nostalgic for a trip I wasn't on with people I've never met in a place I've never been. Truly incredible

[@lissaslunacy]

This was so beautifully done from the amazing visuals & impeccable editing to the top notch music choices! I didn't want it to end. 💗💗

[@jaybish1868]

This video was beautiful, so much talent Pj, miss you Japan ;-;

[@earthwurm]

this is why i love PJ so much. it's videos like this that really prove how talented he is, and he is the main reason i've started trying out videography and all that jazz. pj is a huge inspiration to me and i hope he never stops doing this

[@frasercampbell9160]

the first song (for anyone interested) is "Hate Yourself" by TV Girl. You can find it on her bandcamp, which PJ linked in the description. It's in her album "French Exit" (track number 4).

[@trashvids1278]

THIS VIDEO IS SO BEAUTIFUL JSKKSJJSJS it's so well edited and filmed and the music is perfect and the whole thing is so amazing and relaxing and entertaining and AHHHHH ありがとうございましたFOR THIS ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

[@ayushi2930]

wow this is so beautifully made pj

[@nonoo6295]

I am very glad that you rejoiced！ 日本に来てくれてありがとうございました😊

[@lauraarruda2645]

ever since I started quarantine (which means more than a year ago) I always come back to this video to just remember how it all was back then when nothing like this existed, and to remember how it was to travel - the new encounters, feelings, places to go and look around. This was beautifully filmed as always, Peej. You're the best.

[@xiaorishu]

These shots are so beautiful

[@georgiamarshall2415]

THIS IS INCREDIBLE AND I AM ONLY TWO SECONDS IN OML

[@leonard-riccardowecke2773]

the way you pay attention to the details is insane. thats what captures the atmosphere so very well!! content like this is so rare. I love the way you appreciate art.

[@RawrMonsterKitty]

I love your Japan vlogs, they’re so well edited and just bring back a ton of nostalgia for me from when I was a little kid living there, even the colors of the city lights bring back memories

[@Trinity-wm8sm]

That don't eat the hedgehogs sign is my aesthetic

[@KickThePj]

It was a necessary sign, I was getting hungry and almost ate one.

[@Trinity-wm8sm]

KickThePj But just know that there was someone who couldn't hold back and actually did. The fact that the sign is there is proof

[@ayctky901]

the music is incredible. everything is so beautiful i’m almost crying. i’m from japan btw!

[@part-timepartytime9621]

I found it, it's "hate yourself" by TV Girl off of their "French Exit" album.

[@galacticnyancat5125]

Every year, i'll come here to lighten up my mood. thanks PJ

[@mithrilbookofmystery]

This video just makes me so happy. I can't really explain it - the amazing filmography, the music, the glimpses of the adventures you had and the places and people you guys got to see, its all so freaking amazing. I feel the happiest I've felt in a few weeks. Thanks, PJ

[@StarHelix]

First Song : TV Girl - Hate Yourself Second Song : Cullah - Bradycardia

[@chan__003]

Star Helix thanks
