The new KZbin feature "Super Thanks" has been added to my channel!! "Super Thanks" is to the right of LIKE button. From here, you can easily support me like Patreon. Your support will help me to continue and improve my video.🤝

[@samudamico764]

what I really appreciate about your videos... Is that you don't add silly music to make everything sound more exciting... but you leave the natural sound of your surroundings... and it's really relaxing ....continue like this... you have a new subscriber :-)

[@leonkennedy1352]

the most important thing mr kuga-san is that you can travel safely and be able to relax in your own comfort space watching videos on your phone and eat your favorite snacks in the comfort of your solo compartment. like rick steves says: KEEP ON TRAVELING🚅🚌🛫🚗. 🙏📿

[@samanthabmw330]

Ganz genau.

[@SujitNair7]

Man...I love channels like this. No silly talks. Just the real show.

[@johanna7254]

I swear, when I finally visit Japan I'm going to spend a good chunk of my time on trains...... Being from a car-dependent place in the US, I am so jealous of all these neat and creative trains lol

[@lenne0rocks]

Same! When ever I travel somewhere I try to figure out if they have trains just to ride them, watching these videos has me even more intrigued!

[@apara2005]

Train travel is AWESOME!!! Right before the pandemic I took the Amtrak train from north to south (23hrs) and it was the best experience ever. It was fun watching yhe scenery and the weather change from winter to summer ❤️. Definitely an experience everyone should try once if you're into long travel treks!!! I want to do it again, but in a private car.

[@quarterburnt]

Johanna are you me? I have the exact sentiments. In 2019 I was able to do a EU trip and 90% of the travel was by train and coming from the US, it was so amazing. Half the fun of this channel is taking notes on visiting Japan one day entirely by train.

[@JMarieCAlove]

We do have trains in the U.S., it’s called Amtrak. It takes you from one side of the U.S. to the other side and in between. And there’s also Metro city trains that take you city to city. They’ve been around a long long time. You should really try it.

[@nymonroenoaa1926]

Agreed!

[@drewbizdev]

Another Excellent Video! Thank you Kuga!

[@judeodomhnaill9711]

Japan looks clean, orderly, organized & safe. I'm jealous.

[@englishatheart]

It's nice, but you also have to understand how much pressure their citizens are under to be "perfect" and ever improving. I would love to visit and maybe live there, but definitely wouldn't want to work there. Life isn't meant to be spent working and trying to reach perfection when it isn't reachable.

[@judeodomhnaill9711]

@@englishatheart ya, I heard that before. You're expected to work overtime for no money, lol. Aesthetically, I'm amazed. Got to give it to them on the work ethic too.

[@traceyjjacko73]

It is

[@TuckerSP2011]

I know, I really envy their order, admire their discipline and good citizenship. I'm fed up with our government putting criminals first here in the USA. They're absolutely catering to the lowest common denominators and sold us out to would-be series of dictators for their own benefit.

Your two channels are the first I ever viewed in this genre. I am learning Hiragana after being inspired by you. Thanks Kuga; you are truly appreciated.

[@kugastravel5180]

Thanks for watching always, GW AMES FILMS!🤝

[@IKEMENOsakaman]

The graphics on the travel screen on the train is so cute XD

[@UmaiSeries]

Trains in Japan are just on a different level! Can’t wait to experience this real soon. 🙏🏼

[@romanbeetle]

Kuga Face Reveal?? I love your videos and always silently watch, thank you for always posting such great content!

[@dalensajero6805]

I got excited to see his image albeit fleeting. Wish Kuga will reveal more of himself.

[@helenel4126]

Even the train exterior is spotlessly clean. You are very fortunate.

[@henrychew235]

Thanks for sharing, japan trains never ceases to innove and bring one something different. Really hope for travel to start again and get a chance to try these unusual train out!

[@paracog]

An elegant modern update to the traditional train compartment. Very elegant! Love the front face of the train. Very Batman.

[@Benaveil]

I always look forward to your video. As others have mentioned, I love the idea of being able to travel along with you. The way you position your camera to look at things, along with your explanation and humor is very enjoyable. Perhas if I get the opportunity to travel in Japan, I can be better prepared and already know what the expectations are! Thank you very much for your hard work!

[@mimi.t7]

また日本に行きたいです! Love watching your videos with the actual ambient sound... Made me miss riding on trains in Japan. 😆

[@roseofsharon11]

Thank you so much for another exquisite visit to Japan! And I so enjoy your meal choices… you get hungry, too! Wonderful…

[@klb5114]

very good video. the room looked nice and large and comfy. the food looked delicious. and we finally got to see what you look like huh. that was you from the angle we saw. keep up the good work

[@dalensajero6805]

So glad to see your image even briefly. Thanks for another great rail journey.

[@dskadd32]

A beautiful train to travel in. So much room to enjoy the view - from the windows and the screens! That's a trip I want to take! Thank you

[@CooCooCachoo]

I've been a sub for a while now. I love how your content is almost like unboxing vids. I can't wait to see how your reservation is set up, what amenities you get, what food is offered. Even the bathrooms and showers! I love staying in luxury hotels but don't get the opportunity to travel enough so thank you for posting your adventures!!

[@margaretsinclair4049]

This was just what I needed today. Your videos are always beautiful, relaxing, entertaining, informative, and never boring.It is on my wish list to visit Japan someday. Meanwhile, I will keep keep watching your travels and enjoying your lovely country vicariously. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us! i look forward to the next one.

[@TuckerSP2011]

What a wonderful, luxury trip. I enjoyed watching you enjoy it!

[@shirokumakogyo]

Japan has some truly exceptional specialty rolling stock on many of its regional lines. Worth the price even for shorter rides.

[@marthaanthis3980]

What a wonderful outing! I’m still constantly amazed at how clean everything is on Japanese trains!

[@dsdonovan]

Another excellent travel experience. Thanks for sharing.

[@albertusdrostable]

I love Japanese trains!

[@powellmountainmike8853]

Thanks for another interesting video ! I really enjoy taking these trips with you, even if it is only on a video. It's like going on a mini vacation to Japan with a good friend who can translate and explain things.

[@caractax.3110]

All these different beautiful trains, I love it 👏🤩💕

[@mariemorgan7759]

I love old 🚂 trains! The music before the announcements sounds like the ice cream trucks here in the USA!😊 Wonderful, roomy section you were able to get.

[@p.herrmann4538]

They playing "oh susanna" as a announcement kickoff gets me laughing

[@JMarieCAlove]

@7:48, That song that changed from the Classical music, is an old American song that dates back to the early 1800s. It’s called Oh! Susanna. That’s too funny they used that song to get passengers attention. I grew up singing that song in elementary school with my classmates. Btw, I would love to visit Japan and tour around by train there. We have trains here in the U.S. but it’s been a long time since I’ve been on a train. The last train ride is when my husband and I went on a Alaskan cruise, we had to take a train through parts of Alaska to get to Anchorage. It was a beautiful train ride. We met people from other states. Thank you for sharing your train ride adventure! 😁

[@bizarreman1989]

Your videos always feel like sone unique journey. The wonders of Japan.

It's very satisfying to watch your video. Very pleasent. So relaxing.

[@daspump]

Japanese trains look so much cleaner and nicer than those here in the UK. These videos are just great. Seriously thinking about visiting Japan in the next couple of years. More videos please.

[@momkatmax]

I love the countryside! I remember a colleague who was visiting the US from Japan that lived in Tokyo. He was asked how he enjoyed his experience in Tokyo with all the city's lights and glamor. He said "city stinks, I love countryside." I always laugh a bit about that answer. The countryside is beautiful.

[@karencraig4371]

It's always a joy to see your journeys I wish I could go and visit Japan you just make it look so good

[@romanhemza5608]

I enjoyed as usually. Thank you 🤗

[@melkess74]

I follow along with the train route in your stories on maps, and this whole area looks like such an interesting place to visit! Beaches, aquarium, national park, lighthouses. I bet a lot of tourists!

Nice train. Many thanks for the video!

[@CheapCharlieChronicles]

Architecturally Kyoto station must be the nicest in Japan.

[@iatsd]

Depends. If you're into Victorian architecture then Tokyo Station is pretty hard to beat. Some of the modernist stations are spectacular bits of architecture.

[@TheBaldr]

It is huge and lots of really fun hidden places, but a lot of wasted area also. I definitely enjoy going to the sky bridge.

[@judgedee7956]

Parts of it are freezing in Winter but my wife & I like the Happy Terrace on a sunny day

[@trevor8572]

Thank you so much for your fantastic video. Love the train trip especially the monitor with the map and view from front . Of train was great. I couldn't be more happy traveling through Japan with soft music playing in the background. Being in the private room I was waiting for Harry Potter to put his head through and ask is there any seats. Looking forward to coming over . Booked for November. So we will wait and see. Hello from Downunder 🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘

[@desmondshepard3823]

This train is awesome😳😳😳

[@TheBaldr]

I like taking the Kintetsu from Kyoto to Nara. Not only is the the station closer to the touristy stuff than the JR station, sometimes I splurge for the reserve express tickets. I do want to go to Ise-shima someday.

[@SpookyRooster135]

Awww wow, you're so handsome. It's nice you put yourself on the videos now, as you never did for so long. The train is a very nice looking one. I don't like flat fronted ones, this looked very modern in design and seemed pretty quiet. The yellow trains were nice colours. Glad you enjoyed your journey. See you next time. Have you been on a monorail yet? I want to go on the Daegu one in South Korea.

[@SpookyRooster135]

I want that ruler with the train on 😂 Your dessert looked to die for.

I just started watching your videos a month ago and i absolutely love them. Could you tell me what is your most favorite train and space on the train to travel on

[@marijusofficial]

Kintetsu privately owned railway,it is great to ride with private railway company in Japan,they are clean and well designed. Wow you read my mind i would have gotten Matsusaka Beef as well

[@صلاحالساعدي-د1ق]

[@sdingeswho]

That actually is very strange, that more of the trains don’t have dining cars, because many of the runs are long-enough to include meals. The train that *really* should include a dining car, or better still room service as Kuga-san did here, is the Sunrise Express 😁!

[@y-mefarm4249]

If I was in a group that room would be great or working. But a solo traveler. I would prefer the comfy seats.

[@RS250Squid]

Wow, that train looks like it was built by Lakon, with all those windows at the front :-).
