Is natsuki the movie 2 still happening?

Most underrated movie💜... I'm waiting for ryotaro movie & it to flop😂😂

Never would have thought he ran a Hair Salon either!

I can relate more than I’d like.

I'm sitting here on a Saturday, at 4am looking at this comment and thinking to myself that I too am choosing the easy path too many times, Natsuki is truly a wise man. I guess is time to rethink the course I'm taking in my life. I don't know if Natsuki will ever read this, but thank you!

@@waltwhite8126 Say my name

@@waltwhite8126 Same. I'm starting a job in insurance sales tomorrow. Usually, I hate sales jobs as I'm not good at it. But nearly a decade of working at call centers has broken me. I almost didn't do the interview because the company has mixed reviews...but I'm not going to let that stop me. The way I see it, nothing can be worse than returning to a call center. I'm selling life insurance, something always in need (so I'm not selling useless items nobody would want) and it's in need more than ever now. Plus, I can actually become licensed in other states with similar insurance laws without even living there, thus easily increasing my client list. That already shows that I have way more growth opportunities than any call center I've worked at. I'm excited and scared. I keep making lists of all the things I'll finally be able to do, all the debt I'll be able to pay off, how I can help my family, and then I get nervous about what if I'm not good and I fail? I don't know...but I do know I don't want to go back to before. I literally flaked out and was fired from my last two at-home jobs just because I was mentally burnt out from call centers. I can't get any lower than that.

@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley I wish you the best of luck in your new job! But if you fail, don't give up, I know it's cliche, but that is the truth. I'm looking for another job too! But since I'm already employed I can take my time and try to pick the best job I can. If the company you are working for now reveals to be bad employers, don't think twice and look for another job in the same field. From personal experience, I can say for sure that it is way better to look for a new job when you are employed, bc you can take your time and pick the best one that you can find.

I love this idea!! You should tweet this and tag Chris

Yeeeees

Natsuki goes to Brazil for a weekend. That would be a show

uh can we please make this happen please. Natsuki in Lebanon. Natsuki in the Maldives, Natsuki Discovers Tibet etc.

Woah, this is a great idea!

nippon kazauwaa

Have confidence overseas friend! I hope you love your time in Canada!

Lmao

This is the best thing I’ve watched in my life

beautiful

And that friend one day allows you to meet Hyde. Just goes to show you, you never know!

Celtic Lass for real if it wasn’t for him then he wouldn’t have met Hyde

The best thing is Chris is always laughing around Natsuki and vice versa.

Good point!

Natsuki has an infectious joy and brings Chris out of his natural British misery too. So they balance each other that way too.

It's meant to be innit

I think humanistically their personalities just complement each other too, I can understand their friendship

It could be because of budget cutting cost. But him realize allot and appreciated more in life in a short period of travel.

Same mindset in U.S. too, well, at least its forced on most workers? Idk. I do know Holidays are the worst in some jobs... 😑 and most people thought holidays with relatives were a part of family values. If people want good workers, they should take care of workers...🤔 They oil and fuel machines don't they? 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ But can't even give workers the money and breaks they need?

@jernejj5 meanwhile I'd get like... Three days...

Unless you got a real high paying job or are paying with a group/going with a family its rare you can go abroad in the UK you gotta either camp in shitty rain because the UK weather cant let us have nice things or nothing at all.

@@donkeyfacekilla1 smokers are generally pretty approachable, because they bum cigarettes off each other all the time

it was more sad if anything

@@yyakaemun fax

@@yyakaemun more people than you think live that way. And it's not a depressive sentence, it's a, "I'm going to live my life, and when I die, I die. I won't live my life, in fear of when or why I might die." It's the opposite of depressing. It's very in the moment.

​@@ObservationofLimits I know well how many people live like that, that's why it's even worse. There is no need to fear death, but it is stupid to willingly run to it, wouldn't you agree? Otherwise we all might as well just jump off a building right now because why not let's "live". It's a fatalistic philosophy to follow that leads only to self-destruction.

If only death by smoking wasn't so brutal...There're many ways it will eventually kill you, but, lung cancer is one of the more horrific. Seeing family members, the way they were at the end, was very disturbing. All died before 70. It's not a glamorous or badass death, and the suffering starts long beforehand. I support people's right to do whatever they want with their own bodies if they aren't hurting other people and are of (relatively) sound mind. However, it's easy to think you're a badass who just lives in the moment, not worrying about tomorrow, while you aren't hooked up to oxygen and chemo in a hospital room. It doesn't just make you live less time, your last years are typically hell. I would never say this to a smoker's face (unless they personally were genuinely wanting a wake-up call or motivation to quit) because I "know better" than them. Trust me. They know. I've smoked before. Nobody could've told me otherwise. I get it. But watching the brutal reality of cancer consuming someone you love really shook me. I pass no judgement on people who smoke, but I really wished they wouldn't, even if I keep it to myself.

Hell, Yea! Eccentric Magic. Natsuki is the man.

I was just going to write it!

This is one of the best optimistic lines I’ve heard. I gotta remember this one.

@@amarug wait, how did you reach that conclusion? I didn't see anything vegan about the statement Curious578 made

@@amarug Seems like projection, since you imediately went after the low hanging fruit. It's worse because there are good reasons to worry about Natsuki and others' health and to think about how other living beings suffer for us. Yet no reason to insinuate or ask her about it, other than to be a dickhead about it and dismiss her opinion.

The only movie where critics and audience concur completely

He makes the rotten tomatoes fresh 😂

What a coincidence that his last name is Broad like in Abroad.

Yeah same I just realized that

Chris A. Broad

Well for me its only about a week, but since I should have watched all videos soon, I'm pretty surprised too :D

Is Chris A broad?

Finally getting around to watching this, and as soon as I heard him say it, I scrolled down into the comments looking for it. Absolutely love that line. Natsuki is a treasure.

Sythen ikr

And supposedly his mom spilled his ashes at the airport!

Chris Nixon he can go to dee dee joey and johnnys graves tho and johnny thunders

Supposedly mother scattered his ashes over his girlfriend Nancy.

And Nancy is buried in Philadelphia...

I have never been more interested in a deceased, cremated, and then scattered punk rock that died in another country after reading this comments.

@@dansmith1661 lol

Shut your sad mouth, Dan. This was absolutely lovely. You’re just jealous you don’t have Natsuki in your life.

Agreed

Double Scotch I basically said the same thing but you said it way better.

check out RocketJump or Corridor channel. They basically do the same thing but more into filmaking

Ah man, that scene was such a gut-punch but everything that followed was so inspiring. Thanks Natsuki! You really made me see that it's still possible to chase my dreams. Also, thanks Chris for putting this together. May your videos be forever monitized.

It's not too late! Every new day is a new opportunity to chose how you want to live your life. If you have a dream, take the first step to realizing it today! It might be hard, but like you said, you regret doing what was easy in the past. Don't wake up 10 years from now and regret not having done something now!

same

I only found out it was an hour long after I finished it. Literally thought it was like 15 minutes.

Same here, and after it was done I wanted more! We need to get Natsuki to New York!

You will be surprised those shy introvert looking people is really like away from work or public faces. I went to visit Japanese shrine community NY gathering after ceremony. Started from sharing dinner with about 200 people...everyone brought a plate each, then one middle aged woman started playing sax amazingly, then everyone started to show off their own talent ! Opera singing, grandpa playing drum, young mom hip hop dancing... God blessed sake was going around, party went for hours. Old and young, rich and poor we sang, we danced, we laughed loud! Then time to finish, everyone suddenly just turned to collective cleaner, washed all the dishes cleaned up place vacuumed and mopped and went home like nothing happened lol I was amazed!!! Behind public faces, Japanese people are quit eccentric and colourful!!!

Let's just pray to God pure Japanese people won't die in the time of 2070 somewhere

@@snifey7694 what do you mean die ?

@@mustang3429 The Japanese population technically is declining because of low birth rate and people having kids later in life if at all

😂😂

Sooo true

Is that quote in this movie?

Keith Fox Nope. I just thought it was very fitting given that Natsuki kind of found Chris wandering Japan and adopted him as a best friend. XD

Why does that seem true??😂🤨

Chopperman it’s very true

Right? I could not imagine finding time to unwind, improve or care for myself in such a work culture. Makes me consider just how privileged I actually am, living in a north-western European country.

@@hippie_4762 I don't understand why they keep doing it. I get that they are used to it and it's considered honorable and all that. But it's been proven plenty of times that even an 8 hour work day might be too long. People are less productive when they work longer. So especially when you don't do production work, very often a 6 hour work day would be as productive as 8. But it will take a while for Japan to change. I would love to migrate, but I can't retire for quite a while and don't want to suffer though their work days.

@@markeldik7057 not everyone there works 15 hours a day or even 12. The average Japanese works 10 hours a day, and have 2 days off a week. The main thing is, is that they often work unpaid overtime because its in their culture to stay and finish a job, even if its outside of work hours.

The majority dont work 15 hours a day. Also even though they work long they dont work hard. They dont complete work as fast as americans do. Their productivity is low.

@@nerdnairbnordnirbu9044 @jobobobo I know all that, but without looking into IT in japan as someone in IT its already kinda sucky over here. I imagine it can only be worse there. And I get that the pressure to just keep on going really fast isn't there so much as here, but I would much rather do something quickly than very leisurely. Difference in mentality I guess. Also with the pace I tend to work 10 hours would break me as well. I notice very much that like the first 4 hours I achieve like 2/3ds of what I do the entire day if not more.

chris is a legend for doing this

I was thinking the same thing! What a selfless and wonderful thing Chris did for his friend! Actions like this give me faith in humanity.

Chris is foremost a film maker first before being a KZfaq personality.

Chris once said he want to make Natsuki rich and famous, so he could go home. That's when Natsuki also said "No".

I kind of missed Chris. Somehow when they are both on the video, the movie shines. I liked this one too, but love to see them both.

Me too! haha

This video makes me kinda sad because it’s deeply emotional. But I watch it anyway haha

@@AbroadinJapan You should not be sad. You have Natsuki. Just call him and talk about balloons. And Also, you have Ryotaro, the biggest expert on beef, and how to kill you.

Same, it’s impossible to see Natsuki in his own element and not have a smile. Such a treasure.
