@@_blank-_ Even if its like that it can still give an insight into the societal structure and how were the lives of people in those times. For example street art, which you can see on walls may seem pointless and even illegal. But when you look them from a larger view you realise that these arts aren't completely pointless. These point at a society where social and economic disparities still exist. A society where every individual does not have equal opportunities. Where people are frustrated, angry, rebellious. I am not trying to be a d*ck...but just putting my own view out there.

This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in regards to sculpture. A massive collection of statues, based on real people who sent their photos in to the sculpture. It's a really cool story. It might seem like a spooky place to some, especially if you're the kind of person who gets freaked out dolls, which is understandable, but I think this is incredible. It looks like a very serene and almost holy place.

This place would make a really good anime. Ok im imagining: at night while theres no people around, the souls in the statues would go and just hang out, you know? Be like ordinary people and go on in their daily (or should i say nightly) lives. And that woman is like, their caretaker(?) and goes on her daily walks to check up on them and protect them. Edit: or maybe they become humans at night and the woman would do something like, touch the box thing that theyre sitting on or something else to alert them when people are passing by or if the sun’s gonna rise

Oh wow, thanks Norm! This one was great!! (Much less creepy than the train station). I'm thinking that maybe that particular statue draws so much attention because it's one that has the stone that looks newer? (It looked a lot whiter than the rest nearby). You and Viktor must have gotten so many great photographs. (400 like the station? lol) I absolutely LOVED that you ran into that older woman and the groundskeeper--definitely a treasured memory I'm sure. Like I mentioned in ep. one, love the new intro. Thank you for all you do! Hope you and Viktor (and whomever else joins the adventure have an amazing time!) -Diane

It's been a while since I've been able to watch your videos almost immediately after they come out! Great video, though I find it more interesting than creepy... Mind you, at midnight in a storm, lightning cracking and seeing this as you wander, that would be creepy as hell lol Can't wait for episode 3! You're spoiling us with how fast these have come out thus far.

these vids, a great series...wondering if the founder of this place felt compelled to leave something tangible of himself and his life? fear of being forgotten? normally statues are erected on behalf of someone, not oneself...would be interesting to hear more from residents in the area about it...tfs

Wow the Japanese countryside villagers are making different museums to show their own stories in their own way. It just shows how the villagers love their own villages and closely integrated that they made effort to bother themselves to deco the village.

So the creepiness continues for Season 3. I know you say that it's so early in the morning, but it feels like sunset. Like that haunting time during dusk when the light is fading and the statues are waking up. I continue my binge with an increasing heart rate...
