5:53 I love how there‘s Greensleeves playing in the background as it’s only green (s)leaves 😉

This was SO cool! I love the story telling aspect with the sprinkles of nerdy camera stuff. A wonderful start to a series!

a perfect capture of the struggles and the joy with traveling! Thank you!

Great job on the video you two! Thanks for making it.

Loving these videos! Happy the hike paid off with some spectacular images!

HAHAHA the bum steer was not cool, but loved hearing about the adventure! so epic!

That’s a fun narrative, along with beautiful photography.

What a lovely pair!!! Love your humour too!

Vivienne is so cute. Well, both of you guys are so cute. Happiness all around. Thanks guys! Take care.

Thank you for the beautiful images and videos 📹.

Love your videos Jason!! Seriously gets me so excited for my next trip and the pictures i’ll be capturing.

Greetings from Japan. Happy to hear it all turned out well. I've been following you from my other account for a very long time and I really enjoy to see your progress. Your tutorials have been an inspiration. Keep it up! You'll be the next Peter McKinnon.

Thanks for the epic travel log! Jason, I love your sense of humor! Getting up at 5 am... The things you two do for your audience! Lol!

Damn! That was so entertaining! Good job!!

Fantastic video! Loved the story telling here 😂. Might be your best video yet!

Wow and just wow. Amazing video. Love it ! Beautiful scenery and top level content and guides.

This is a great video. More of this please!!

Oh this format is so good! Loved the way you told this story!

absolutely epic! motivation and inspiration for my channel!

Love this series! Cant wait for more

My man is back...learning as I watch

Loved the format- unique style is so much fun❤

Sweet content yo. 🥳 hope the gone vong series continues!

Loved seeing the true experience, still got awesome shots! Great stuff 👏

Great video Jason, love your commentary and enjoy the vibe of you two on camera. Excellent shots, glad you got them this time around.🔥

Glad things worked out in the end! Very informative for planning such a trip

Was cool meeting you guys at Kiyomizu dera! And I made it into the video ❤ wuhu 🎉 12:42

This narration is so intense. It's like I'm watching The last samurai 2 -battle against the Ninja kids and the scaffolding mizudera. This energy makes want to visit Kyoto more! Thank you.

Beautiful shots. I'm looking forward to visit Kyoto in a couple of months.

Great series! Looking forward to more-lots more.

Loved it!! Great storytelling and beautiful images, very entertaining. Thanks for sharing! Including japan in my bucket list right now! :D Kind regards

So exciting. Do more of these please. You two are so much fun

This was great to watch! Reminded me when I rushed to Kyoto earlier last year to get my last viewing of the Cherry Blossoms. Glad you were able to see Kiyomizudera!

I love vlogs like this . Great to see more content from you Jason.

Loved this video, keep them coming pleaseeeee

Tip for the next trip to Kiyomizudera. Wait till near closing time to get some awesome night shots. The crowds get pushed out and you can hop right in at the end to get a good position. The monks let us and other photographers stay about 15 mins past closing. The grounds are lit up and the lights from the city make for an amazing shot.

Awesome video man! More of this!

Amazing story telling as always. So kickass to watch your mystical journey aaaaahhhhh!

When something so Vong feels so right.

You got what you came for in the end! This will be the start of a new series? Semi VLOG/BTS? I dig it! I am going back to Japan for the first time since 2018 (Tokyo mostly but open to traveling to Kyoto or Osaka as well) in mid April and will most likely miss the Sakura. But I am excited and nervous AF at the same time because I will travel with my camera gear for the first time. Hope to get amazing shots / videos! Look forward to next video!

Amazing to see this perspective of it. My Japan trip is coming up in a few weeks and I can't wait to shoot it all (with the tips I've learned from your channel of course, which thank you). I imagine the sakura season will be quite the similar experience, trying to catch the full bloom, deal with crowds, etc. Your vid gets me excited and anxious (in a good way) at the same time hahaha looking forward to the rest of the series.

When I first seen the announcement for the series I wasn't sure how hyped I should be, but now having watching both vlogs from the 'Gone Vong' series, my only regret is that I didn't watch them sooner. This is not only the best content I have watched on your channel, but it might be the most entertaining video I have seen in months. Your humor and enthusiasm is contagious, and had me on the edge of my seat watching your adventures and mishaps unfold. Incredible story telling. 10:00 I can relate so much! I remember being so excited to see the Kiyomizu-dera temple, when I got there and saw all of the black tarps I was so disappointed. Going to keep my eyes peeled for future installments in the series!

Three years in Japan with the USN and never there for the fall colors. Timing is everything. Here in SoCal, the Japanese red maples are decorative and summer heat or drought hurts them so some years, even in the nice gardens, they aren't great. But, you got to Kyoto! Still an amazing blend of old and new, traditional and modern.

I love this new video concept. Many time no one shows how frustrating it can be to get great shots. Sometimes you just can't get even the opportunity to get the shots or clips with life being in the way

That was one awesome video 🇯🇵👏 Great story and great visuals 🙌 So well done 👏 Keep going 👊

Bro you’re an amazing story teller and your humor is unmatched. BTW need more of your wife’s photos on this too! Wanna see how the film turned out!

My wife and I love Kyoto! Yeah, Kiyomizudera gets super crazy, better to go early in the morning. Though, I felt like the walk to the top of Fushimi Inari was a lot more challenging. And I can relate to the disappointment of scaffolding. In 2019, we went to Miwajima and the floating tori gate was completely covered for renovation.

This is great guys! Truly entertaining 👏🏻

So much appreciate this video, we’ll done and I’ll bet it took a ton of work to produce. Keep going, you’re onto something with your travel videos.

Super clutch but you nailed it! Things didn't go as planned but this adds spice to the trip

that was so much fun!

thanks, this year nov also will go jp to take photo.

AMAZING! This is so good. Glad it worked out in the end.

All the thoughts put into this video was perfect. More dramatic reality tv vlogs pls

Thanks again Jason for very entertaining video, keep up the excellent work!

The end was worth the means. Onwards and upwards young Samurai.

Dude!! Great series! Can’t wait for the next destination.

I love japan! and Your videos about japan I'm greatly Inspired and Influenced to travel to Japan this November for 2weeks. I hope gonna see autumn leaves in kyoto, I would love to take shots of it.

those kids' caps look like the shinsengumi officer caps from rurouni kenshen LOL

Will be going to Japan in April and Excited to see the Temple in Spring :)

SAME! Here in Hawai‘i the weather is always perfect, sunny, and green! Its the WORST! 😜

I hope I can run into Jason when I’m there in march! Would be a dream come true

Thank you Jason & Vivienne for sharing adventure and experience in Japan. 🍻🍻

if you go to Runyon Canon you can find some leaf's like that red/orange changing colors. its nice and close to you Jason lol

Enjoy this video very much. thank you

I had an awesome time in Kyoto this past fall, it was a long rainy day, that did not stop me, near 5pm i was out with my trusty A7IV... Ohh water proof seal dont fail me now.. loved every second of it. I truly love Japan

Same experience at 2004... At that time I was not a photographer!

This makes me so excited for my Japan trip this May!!!

Absolutely incredible video. You guys should be given your own show on the most premier tv travel network in the most desired timeslot, brilliant.

I just don't want to skip any of your videos. Love you guys ❤

You are just so fun to watch 😂

For scouting locations, I usually see if there are live cams in the area and I also check instagram most recently posted photos of the area

Lol I know this is an unfortunate story on your part but you being dramatic made it so funny 😆

Jason! As an even better option: Try Utah in Autumn! Red leaves, yellow leaves, lime-green leaves-explosive with brightness and color luminescence!! It is jaw dropping. And when there, talk with some Latter-day Saints-nice people.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, try perhaps going into more less well known spots for the "shot". Some of the best spot I have viewed autumn season in Japan and Kyoto have generally been in more remote spots. Some are more challenging on transport options but there are always a few that are doable and still give you a wonderful experience.

THIS WAS AWESOME!! BEST ENTERTAINMENT EVAH!!! great work…THANK YOU!

Kiyomizudera was also under renovation when I went there Jan 2020. What's worse is almost ALL of the places we went to were under renovation (kiyomizudera, osaka castle, torii gate at miyajima island).

This was great storytelling and I like the video edits. I'm going to Japan next month, hope to see some cherry blossoms.

Finally...more Vivian!

Great story telling thruout this vlog! It was very entertaining and gives great ideas for places to visit in Japan! I went last year from Mid October to Late November and at Nikko National park you could also see the leaves starting to turn bright red! As a Michigan native we get all the colors here too but it was a sight to see in Japan!

Vivian is the real star of the show. You are very spoiled and very lucky to have her.

Amazing video, I like this style of video! Can’t wait for the next one! And I think when everything went well, both of you wouldn’t have such a big memory 😀 Btw how excited are you about the new Sony camera rumor Rx1RII successor? 😁

Enjoying the videos. You're portraying real life! (And the crepes looked good too....)

You got the shot in the end though right? You're welcome 😅 Loved every second of the video. Excited to see more from this series!

That’s it, I’m switching to my lightest prime lens before going to Kyoto

Your narrative cracks me up 😂Also, I wonder if we're somehow related 🤔🤣

Your suffering somehow makes me laugh. I'll be visiting Kyoto in May. So excited to personally experience this city soon.

Kyoto vindicated! Will be there next week, cant wait!

That shot was totally worth it

Oh god. I’m going there for the first time ever in May and I am excited but also nervous lol

yahoo, excellent ! sleep well.

really great story telling bro ! awesome photos ! really inspired me to make more good content everyday

Love the video. Definitely one of my photo destinations for later.

Your interactions with Vivian really add to the video

WHAT AM I WATCHING???? This is AMAZING!!!! More please!!!

This real fun 🎉🎉 #ninjakids BTW what was that pull down filter? Never seen it

This was amazing! God tier editing and content! Excited to see what else you got in this series!

Thanks for your efforts! I love watching your videos mate 😍
