大晦日は日本人は神社へお参りに行きます、ここにいるのは外国人ばかり

[@LollipopLop]

Shhhh 🤫🤫 don’t let them know or else they will come to the shrines too

Happy New Year 2025 to everybody in Japan . A tourist from Malaysia.

Happy New Year! 🎉

[@3kikig]

この人たちは何をする為にここにいるのだろう。

[@ファンp]

若者には発散出来る場所が必要なんですよ！ 帰省しない若者や増えてる独り身の人やカップルや外国人なんかの為にNYのタイムズスクエアのようにイベントにすれば良いのに渋谷は自由にしてるからカオスになってしまって逆にやばい状況になってしまってる。

[@VSV_Japan]

僕も同意です！少し問題があっただけで、急に今までカウントダウンイベントとかやっていたものを180度方向転換して「渋谷に来ないで！」と言って全部ダメにしてしまうのは非常に残念です。もっとどうしたら上手く出来るのかを考えずに全面的に中止という方向性にいくのは、管理する側がシンプルに面倒臭いからだけだと思っています。日本の社会の残念なことはマイナス面を無くすことばかりに注力しすぎるあまり、リスクを怖がって新しいことにチャレンジしないところだと思っています。

This is so sad…Japan is no longer Japan…😢

Too dangerous too crowded

[@Helio-c4y]

They should have gone to Shinjuku, near the city hall building. There were fireworks there.

[@VSV_Japan]

Happy New Year! 🎉 🎉 Sure! I'll do my best!

[@CMTWorldTraveler]

Great video happy new year 🎉 I like that the time is shown. You should also consider this for future videos to show date and time of production 😊

[@VSV_Japan]

The date and time when filming began are listed in the description.

[@Ganuah.]

It’s really better off going to Shinjuku for countdown than staying in Shibuya for nothing is happening

[@Okashime]

tbh Yokohama bay is better for new year eve in japan cuz they have fireworks there and its just around 30 mins from tokyo by local train (or 15 mins by shinkansen)

[@frederickastarr9771]

Happy New Year! May you have a happy and healthy new year, thank you for all the amazing videos you shared all through the years, Thank you! Be well as always.

[@VSV_Japan]

Recently, my health has been more stable, so I feel relieved. Thank you for your concern. Happy New Year!

I'm glad you survived! 😄

[@lloydfrancisrivera8255]

Happy New Year! 🥳 Looking forward to Japan in 2025!!!

[@jonathansakura]

I live 20 min from Shibuya and i didnt even bother lol 😅 I knew it would be crowded with tourists and no point to be there Btw i lived in korea when the itewon incident happened

[@elkevera]

You are the best! Happy New Year and a huge Thank You for all you do for us. ☮ When the police took the yellow tape and parted the crowd, I sat here in Germany with my mouth open. Like Moses parted the Red Sea 😂

[@VSV_Japan]

Yeah, they look like him. I agree! 😄 Happy New Year!

[@beverleyburnett7708]

Happy New Year 2025. Wow that’s crazy crowded. I can’t cope with crowd. They came to watch the fireworks? I’ve got 2 hours left till 2025 in UK 🇬🇧

Happy new year!

Happy New Year! 🎉 🎉

[@DovidM]

I don’t understand what the police could do if there is a stampede as at Itaewon in 2022. A bullhorn or whistle won’t prevent a panicky crowd from trampling people. The police should limit the number of people in the street.

[@rabbitb-s1n]

Hi! Love this video. May I know what camera you used for this video pls?

[@VSV_Japan]

I used Osmo Pocket 3 for this video. Please see the description for more details.

[@rabbitb-s1n]

@VSV_Japan Nice! Thanks man! And happy new year!

もはや日本語でアナウンスする意味ないなw　日本人より外国人の方が多い。 Officers,it would be better if you directed pedestrians in English or Spanish

Happy New Year 2025 Mr.Yoshi

Thank you. Happy New Year to you too! 🎉

[@93hothead]

Reminds me of that korean incident, i guess people just never learn

[@LollipopLop]

Japanese usually go to shrines But foreigners go to Shibuya 😂💀 this is weird but yeah

[@Bukkie661]

I recognize the walk-way from Persona 5!!

[@ravenevebyfleet4618]

Happy New year to all in Japan ❤ 🎉 its still December the 31st here in the UK 🇬🇧 😁

[@BiBi-bj9kl]

多くの人が集まっても安全な広い場所でカウントダウンイベントをやればそっちに人が流れて渋谷は安全になるかも

I saw many non Japanese come for the event😮😮

[@ceasol]

Mika Pikazo pop up store and her Disney collection!! ad @ 3:50

[@Okashime]

OMG the crowd is insane and scary.... I will never be able to handle in a sea of human like this lol 😅I was hoping you would do New Year's Eve in Asakusa instead since there are also another countdown crowd/event there & since its something different... and the sky tree also changed color + shows Happy New Year as well when it hits 12AM! but regardless I still appreciate this video so much since I will never want to be in this crowd, so thank you for recording this! 🤩

[@VSV_Japan]

If I had gone to Asakusa, I probably wouldn’t have been able to catch the last train and make it back home. Shibuya was just within the distance that allowed me to get home in time. 😄 Happy New Year!

[@heyking8583]

Asakusa is also have the same or more crowded lol

[@mahler23]

Locals don't go to downtown Shibuya. Mostly horrible country folk and tourists.

[@Okashime]

@@heyking8583 yeah i saw someone livestreaming NYE in asakusa, super crowded too but less random yelling compare to shibuya lol

[@Okashime]

@@VSV_Japan ahh i see that makes sense then, happy new year!

[@allenzhang6203]

25:55 why shake so hard ? 😂

[@troypowell7099]

What happened to your intro music? It's just not the same without.

[@VSV_Japan]

Sorry. I've had a health issue and I've been unable to stay sitting in front of my computer to edit videos since 4 months ago. Please see the community page for more details. www.youtube.com/@VSV_Japan/community

[@FunHiking]

no show firework ?

[@Okashime]

only in yokohama

[@kinaco2800]

何でわざわざ集まるんだ？ まるで羊の群れの様🐑

[@らじゃ-x5n]

すご 半分くらい外国人じゃないの？

[@JongUn-r1s]

And where's firework? If there's no firework just better to sleep than wasting your time.

[@andgate2000]

I'm in Sydney...you couldn't pay me to go into the city on new years .

[@Okashime]

tokyo doesnt really allow fireworks so late at night i think there's rule for that, there's fireworks in yokohama bay though

[@Shimousa]

Foreign tourists flocking to Shibuya without observing Shibuya City ordinances has become a problem. Due to the weak yen, a large number of these foreigners are coming to Japan, and the security situation is worsening. At the very least, I don't want foreign tourists to flock to Tokyo, so I recommend going to tourist destinations with fewer foreign tourists, such as Hagi, Izumo, Uwajima, Wajima, Aomori, and Yubari.

[@galihofficial9277]

Mangat ❤

[@Okashime]

but i love going to tokyo as tourist... i just dont want to stay in shibuya or shinjuku because of the insane crowd & also its noisy, i usually stay in akihabara or ueno or asakusa or odaiba for less crowd/noise

[@Shimousa]

​@@Okashime I also love going to Tokyo. Overtourism is a serious problem in Japan's major tourist destinations, such as Tokyo, due to worsening public safety. On the other hand, in Japan's rural areas, towns are becoming obsolete and the gap between them and cities and famous tourist destinations is becoming more serious. That's why I proposed traveling to the regions of Japan instead of congregating in Tokyo, which would help eliminate overtourism and further revitalize the regions.

[@Okashime]

@Shimousa this same issue also happens in other countries, its not exclusively just for Japan. As far as I know I think it also the same issue in some Europe countries like Italy where its very crowded on major destination tourist cities but very quiet/empty on rural area, to the point there's literally 1€ homes sales project by the government for people to buy cheap houses and make the villages/abandoned rural area alive again. It also happen in some SEA countries too, But even then its still will take alot of time for the empty rural places get popular by tourist again since most tourist will go to places with the most entertainment they can offer. Most tourist doesnt really wants to stay in quiet village/city with minimal entertainment aside just natures or religious sites like temples, shrines, etc for a long period of time, it will just be a short getaway trip to relax but not the entire trip usually unless they exclusively looking to just relax the entire trip.

[@Shimousa]

​@@Okashime In fact, there are still many sightseeing spots in rural areas of Japan that foreign tourists are unaware of. Frankly speaking, I think it is a waste to come to Japan and see only Tokyo and leave. In rural areas, you can eat fresh local food and experience various things depending on the region. For example, you can see drift ice along the coast of the Sea of Okhotsk, or coral reefs on Miyako Island. As for regional sightseeing, we recommend taking the Hokuriku Shinkansen from Tokyo to Osaka via Nagano, Kurobe/Unazuki Onsen, Toyama, Kanazawa, Kaga Onsen, Fukui, and Kyoto. In addition, Yubari City is a very desolate town, but it deserves more recognition for its ski resorts and the nearby famous ski resorts of Niseko and Tomamu, which are popular among foreign tourists.

[@modtomodern]

Glad that I am not there.

どこの国も年末の都市部は同じ状況よね。でも海外のほうがもっと盛大に祝ってると思う。

[@minakom1525]

危ない…梨泰院の二の舞になってしまう。 こうなることは予想できたはずだから、この辺もバリケードを張って一方通行にしないと意味がない。

[@logan9986]

Why don't just sit at home and watch nhk 红白????😂😂😂 This time there are many singers who got fabulous song

[@VSV_Japan]

Unfortunately, NHK’s 紅白 has been seeing declining viewership over the years, and this year reportedly marked the second-lowest ratings in its history.

[@yuu131ki]

カオスやな。 この若者達は一体何が楽しいのか。 ゲート作って、入場料取って、花火上げたらどうかな。

[@kawaiipanda1974]

Why go to Shibuya?? It is just a touristy thing. No Japanese citizen is celebrating a countdown in Shibuya. People are only making it difficult for Japanese police officers. If you wanna countdown with fireworks go to a different country, please.

[@LollipopLop]

Every Asian tourist even know Japanese celebrate when they go to shrines and stuff but I feel like western tourists don’t know that 😂💀 that’s why they go Shibuya

[@LollipopLop]

In fact the countdown is not even in Shibuya It’s somewhere else in Japan
