4K・ 【4K】Walking along Tama river and in Seiseki-Sakuragaoka hills

[@SonicHalo9107]

I always find it amazing how quickly Japan's areas go from urban to rural to a mix. It almost feels like nature and humanity blends better here.

[@iratepirate3896]

Aside from the overhead power lines everywhere, which is a major blight on the landscape imposed on the country by its ridiculous construction lobbying industry and government.

[@modtomodern]

@@iratepirate3896 Due to the overuse of concrete and so few trees, Japan always looks ugly to me, except for the temples of course.

[@JMarieCAlove]

Ghetto Peasant Are you correcting SonicArtemis117?

[@JMarieCAlove]

SonicArtemis117 I agree too, but I think when you walk around any city, you’ll be surprised what you’ll find. He does a lot of walking in his video’s so knows what to show us from a noisy city to the quietness of a park with a lake or a creek going through it. I live in central California and around my city, there’s a lot of beautiful parks, a river runs through my whole city, walking paths that leads to the main streets to a lake, further outside of here, are a lot of farms and fields and lots of Almond orchards, I love that there’s still old fruit stands outside of town, my grandparents use to buy bags of all kinds of fruits and vegetables and us grandkids would be waiting and waiting... and waiting in the car because they were talking in Spanish, we’re related somehow, their kids went to school with my dad, but my grandparents always gave us one of the bags of fruit ( it was all clean), fun memories! I would love to walk through Japan and other states (ok, not all over the state! lol)... and someday Europe! 😁

[@NoxSuperNova]

Is there a specific reason for this? Like for example that it is a historical place, or has good landscapes, or perhaps the mangakas grew up in that place?

[@paolaguzman9490]

Ya me parecían familiares estos lugares, por susurros del corazón y pompoko

[@いしたー-y4z]

@@NoxSuperNova Just in my opinion, it is because this place is quite close to the central, a lot of people live or can access, and this town has various "expressions" as shown in the video. They have river, hill, forest, city, ... and everything. It is super comfy to cycle around there. I love this place

[@floofycatz]

Every one of your videos are peaceful and calm. Even amongst the city, they are very dreamlike. There are people, cars, busses, but there is no yelling, screaming, horns honking, sirens blaring, truly amazing

[@iratepirate3896]

I love Japanese suburbs, I'm not sure why. Perhaps it's the cleanliness and the stark contrasts between greenery and urban. Edit: Ninjas at 56:17

[@justinmusser8886]

I got very nostalgic and homesick during the first riverwalk. Even though it was japan, the sights and sounds could have easily been the same sort of riverwalk I remember from my youth here in America, in my small town of NY where I was from. There was a big river bisecting the town, and that familiar worn trail in the grass, the baseball field, and its noises, the grass, the river sounds itself(Let alone the kids going by on bikes, that was us as kids for sure) just made it all seem like home. Have not thought about those summer walks by the river in years. Thanks, truly, for the unintended memories.

[@drjethrowski1225]

Reminiscing... I lived in Tama City and Seiseki in '92--'93 while teaching at Mike's English School. I was the classic bad American. Arrogant, haughty, full of myself. I regret so much. And yet, I had a wonderful experience. Met so many generous and talented people. Japan and those people started me on a path to becoming a better human being. If this message were to somehow make it to a gentleman named Ed Weinzeirl (not sure of the spelling), I'd like to thank him and apologize for our time together there. We used to go to a local Ma-n-Pa bar down the street from the school. They made a dish called Niku-Dofu--I think (best soup I've ever eaten)--and we'd sing karaoke together. We did a version of 'Summertime,' where one of us would sing along with the subtitles, and the other one would improvise. Moments in life...

Every time I watch these videos, my heart gets warm. I was set to go to Japan this year before the pandemic hit and unfortunately, I'll have to wait till (hopefully) next year. One of my friends finds the architecture of Japan pretty bland and boring. He's more into cities like Vegas and Dubai that have very "in your face" architecture. While, that can be amusing, I'll take "bland ole" Japan anytime. I do agree that some of the architecture can be bland and simple, but it doesn't bother me. Japan builds much more on practicalities, functionality then aesthetics but at the same time, those simple aesthetics is what makes Japan uniquely Japan. And I love it for that. And truthfully, if you know where to look, you'll find some really fun and groovy architecture/buildings around the cities of Japan. Lots of hidden gems. I can't wait to go back, I really can't!

[@gianlucabernasconi626]

It makes me happy to see that people get the same heart warming experience after watching this vids, with the architecture I absolutely agree with you :))), I’m planning to visit(hopefully next year) Japan, I just can’t wait, it’s like my only source of happiness haha

[@someone972s]

Just wanted to say my appreciation for your filming style. It really conveys what it's like being there and walking around. Some other channels have beautiful cinematography, but it usually comes at the cost of being noticed and getting in the way of people, which can sometimes detract from the experience.

[@Rambalac]

Yep, that is my main point. Filming as natural as I would look around myself if possible. With a bit faster than walking speed to not stick in people flow.

[@alexargumedo1994]

Thank you so much for the relaxing walk, that drone was insane.

As much as I love these videos and would love to go to Japan one day, people underestimate the beauty they have in their own backyard! Take a different route to work, walk to a different bus stop, take a bus to the end of the city and just walk! If you need extra motivation, look at a map first to see what's there.

Every time I tried walking in my neighborhood I get harassed by meth heads and bums. That's on a good day. Sometimes I get jumped by thugs and knocked out. And a few times I've been robbed at gunpoint. So no, I'll stick to watching what it's like to go for a walk someplace safe on KZbin.

[@panchorr1444]

Beautiful suburban neighborhood of Tokyo. A few weeks ago I saw the fantastic and beautiful Ghibli movie "Whisper of the Heart" and I got to know about Tama's existence. Thank you very much for showing us :) Hopefully later you can also make more videos of neighborhoods like Nerima and the surroundings of its rivers, since there they were inspired to make many famous Animes in the West such as Ranma 1/2, Urusei Yatsura, Doraemon, etc :)
