[@richardgalindo1364]

This was worth the wait! An education on Japanese tradition while driving a dream route in a legendary car and having fun with friends. Thank you for the series. Can't wait for the next installment.

[@AEkyuni]

Not gonna lie, I enjoyed this wholesome content more than I should’ve. Sayaka is quite cool and seems to be quite a fun friend to have. Looking forward for more from this series.

[@Bikerpunk330]

Banana! Sayaka is so funny and cute. Your narration skills are excellent Albo. Keep up the good work!

[@victorstriga]

Damn, she has a lot of energy lol Thanks for this episode Albo, professional as always. Feel like I've learned a lot of new stuff

[@1Puppe]

I love Sayaka's energy xD

[@BurpleRX7]

Me and my partner did this exact trip a few years ago when we came over for auto salon, we drove up and down some of the coolest most familiar roads ever, went to DZs, we went into that exact shop and met the same lady and on the way down visited several local museums including some really creepy ones, The toy museum and car museum were particularly good.

[@raheelgill6318]

I've waited quite long for this video & it was worth it. Sayaka is such a ray of sunshine, she's such a contagious personality & I'm glad she'll be in more vids. She's the absolute personification of the word "kawai" & moreover she's definitely diligent at her craft. And Albo as always you did an amazing job with this video. Keep up the good work!!!

[@TensaiV]

Finally iv been waiting so long for a part 2

[@Kingzstreet]

Really cool balanced mix with car and culture facts More pls : D

[@kovacsistvanhetfield]

Banana! I’m hella hyped up when the first video came out bro. Keep these videos up with Sayaka! One of the humblest and nicest pro drifter out there

[@secretsquirrel726]

Another awesome video. Sayaka is great, and wore a nice blue anime ribbon pony tail.

[@Mich_Angel]

バナナ！ This kind of content is great, the scenery and culture of Japan is amazing. And to combine it with part from a iconic story like 頭文字D, I love it. どうもありがとうございます。

[@acm_1985]

[@mitz17]

2:09 Albo : Wakata? Sayaka : Zen zen wakanai 🤣🤣 she is sooo funny 😂 im feeling like watching anime and sayaka is that character that have unlimited energy and always do something funny🤣 edit : BANANA!!

[@zoltantari7336]

Soo looking forward to this. This will be the video for my morning coffee 😊 Ohhh and banana 😀

[@Amiel20]

It was nice and refreshing upload. Thanks, it fun was a great experience of Japanese culture.

[@conradbenjamin7739]

Loving this culture series. Really do learn a lot from it. バナナ

[@TheRedFiiiigure]

Cant wait for the next vid . 1 week still waiting . thanks for the video

[@shraviator3]

banana~ as an Initial D fan, this was truly incredible to watch! I too really enjoy the traditional aspects of Japan and the feeling of visiting any of the shrines there have always brought forth a measure of peace in our otherwise hectic lives.... Sayaka's energy is infectious!

[@phasehalide]

That whole walk through the forest and amazing forest is exactly why i like Japan so much and want to go there. The people, food and cars also among the many things i love too. Banana :-)

[@40ozrj98]

Best car content on KZbin

[@mikeymasochiss6530]

Banana! Great series! I'm a HUGE Initial D fan boy! Even thinking about wrapping my corolla hatchback like the Fujiwara 86! Hope to one day visit Shibukawa

[@tommyfletcher1357]

It looks like you lead an amazing life! It's so inspiring to see videos such as these and it gives me the push to lead my own life in a way that is fulfilling and meaningful. I've been wanting to move to Japan since I was a child and I'm currently interviewing for a role in Japan that could make my dream come true. Thank you for sharing these memories with us, I feel honored to have this glimpse into your life!

[@valkman761]

The last scene with you two discussing about Japan and its heritage was just beautiful. You had a moment there...

[@ORiGiNofM]

Is there a part 3??? Just stumbled across your channel and I have to say I'm loving the content

[@daventx]

Banana. This was great. One of my faves you have done.

[@Deathreaper782]

Banana, It is really cool to see you all having such genuine fun!

[@Mike-no5ox]

I love her personality. She is so fun

[@KobieTennyson]

japanese people in a way keep their traditional places nice and recognise the relevance to their history. america could never n its truly unsettling, videos like this really make me think what life would be like on the other side of the world :) thank you for giving us an insight on how beautiful it truly is.

[@letsgo5303]

It is nice to see that between cultural line when a slippery road sign appears that it is agreed, this area is for drifting.

[@silverace08]

wow! ive been saving watch this mini series and up there with my fav of yours albo, and literally have watched almost every one, its probably the combination of the old school ae86 coupled with mystical mountain roads, ancient temples and culture well explained and of course last but not least, definitely the star of the show, sayaka is a gem, wish i find a girl like that in my life some time in the future, her msg resonated well, it was really cute how you guys shared your fortunes and collect protection charms with such belief and look forward to the future joints together, in nepal we have a lot in common with japanese buddhist shrine cultures everythings similar from washing before entering to throwing money to the sacred namaste gesture and bowing, except its very lax to the point where everyone throws trash around such holy power spots or energy centers, its sad, forget about our roads and their drive ability, barely get a day where there isnt the chance a motorbike scrapes your car here in the city, but there are some beautiful touges out:)

[@Junior6652]

Been there every time I go to Shibukawa. Very peaceful along the river.

[@Bost2301]

Banana. I really love the scenic views in the mountains, the forest is beautiful.

[@kwaitefuni9152]

Banana cool video. Always interesting to learn something new. 1500 year old temple? Now that's old

[@DoesNotGiveAF]

Was the closing scene at 25:09 done on a green screen? I really like this series, what a great way to give a glimpse into Japanese culture and for sure Sayaka was an awesome co-host. Thanks to all involved for producing such quality content.

[@GaleonGuitar]

Haha I see what you mean, there is something "weird" when you compare their bodies to the background, like artificial lighting very similar to what you see in greenscreen footage. As they got close to the camera it really seems like they are in the real place though, so i'm not sure what happened, maybe just camera settings? People in the shrine asked them to stop recording at some point, so there is a chance they had to make this ending on green screen using footage they previously recorded. 😄

[@alainenriquez3899]

I miss Japan! You are living my dream. Honestly I felt heart broken leaving. I literally left my heart there.

[@NeilVegetaDang]

BANANA! Albo you are living the dream my man! I can't wait to visit Japan. Mt. Haruna and this Shrine are definitely on my list. Really enjoyed this video, felt like I was watching an anime haha. Already looking forward to the Usui video!

[@lennynero2456]

Very fun and super interesting video as always! On an unrelated matter: I just recently learned about Kei cars and in particular about the Honda S660. Any chance you could make a video about that and maybe test drive one?

[@terrencesaxon1859]

Banana. Video was great! And Sayaka’s haves awesome and fun personality! Can’t wait for the continuation of the adventure !

[@scienceboy20814]

Sayaka is so fun!

[@TrickyClaw]

Banana. Great Video Albo :) Was awesome to see the rich ancient history of Japan and awesome the shrines in Japan truly are.

[@cakeface03]

I've loved these past two videos, especially with the water cup. I just started watching your channel and I already love the content you've created. Since these were posted around a year ago I can go ahead and watch the next video and I'm excited to. Banana.

By entering the shrine, does it grant fortune for plowing fields and planting seeds?

[@ZoMichael-a]

We need this answered. My plants are almost at seeding stage

Another great video defo need to make a new channel exploring Japan dude and you said to type banana so there you go fella

[@tacticalmattress]

I know what you mean about knowing the layout because of the game. I live in FL and have done a few track days at Sebring. Forza literally prepared me for that track. Though I was not prepared for how rough it is. One of the roughest tracks in the U.S. They have drift events there too sometimes.
