Eric's t-shirts get weirder with times.

I’m so jealous..........Japan, the feeling of fall, burning leaf smell drifting thru the air, and a wonderful dinner. 👍🇯🇵👍

That shot of cars driving on the left side of the road brought up all the past anxiety of driving in Japan - "Honey, look at this view!" / "No, I can't. I'm concentrating too hard on NOT KILLING US ALL!"

Sorry, I cannot comment .Kyde describes everything perfectly.

Hello from Finland! I am so glad I found this channel! So nice to spend a proper +an hour in Japan with your lovely company!

I love how you guys just get right into everything and just give such informative and really funny info..Awesum..

Hi Kyde &Eric just seen this in my notification , put a thumbs up before I started watching knowing its going to be a great video same as all your other ones , you never let us down , thanks for shareing this been looking forward to it , :-) :-)

Looking forward to sharing your trip with you. Very nice start!

Welcome to Shikoku and Kagawa! If you'd like to circle around 88 temples. I'd really like to support you guys!

i love how you guys live a simple, contented and happy life without too much materialistic burdens! Envy!

Just as I was getting bored my saviours arrive!

Both of you deserve more subs, been a sub to this channel for a long time now. Your content whether in Japan or anywhere else is fun and informative. Wishing you guys all the best for the future adventure.

Your guy's travel videos are so relaxing and genuine. Thanks for bringing us along on your travels!

Dudes, I don't understand why you don't have like 1 million subscribers?

The counting pillar is cool. It’s like a permanent rosary.

Kyde and Eric are my favorite marathons. After watching for ... 8 years? It's started to feel like watching my friends' adventures. You guys help these quarantine times feel a lot less lonely

That climb seems like such a serene thing to do. Thanks for showing it!

Fascinating as always, thank you both

Excellent video, Shikoku seems to be a true hidden gem! Looking forward to the upcoming videos in the series.

Thanks for another very enjoyable video!

Woo hoo! new adventures! Moar fuds to nom! Love ya guys! - anthony B .

You two are my favorite couple on KZfaq. Love all your videos.

Loved the sound of the walking stick throughout the video

Japan and its love hotels man... so creepy/strange/interesting/puzzling/creative/cheesy 🤔 I don’t have enough words to describe that!

Shikoku is the most overlooked and (maybe) coolest place to visit. Everyone should check out the Shikoku Pilgramage. Also btw, pretty amazing to see how Love Hotels are changing. Thanks for the vid as always and enjoy your travels!

I'm always excited to see a nice long one.

I’m living in EHIME and came across this video. I visited Takamatsu and a few islands around there for Setouchi Triennale this spring and was fun. I hope you enjoy Shikoku trip and love his T-shirts especially Bjork!!

One of my all time favourite anime, 'Poco's Udon World' is based in Kagawa Prefecture, so it's really nice to see the place in real life through your vlog!

That lemon in the udon made my mouth water...I drooled a little 🤤

👏🏻 👏🏻 well done friends!!

An other great video looking forward to the rest of the videos 👍 and wanting to try shouyu ice cream 🍦 we had Kurobe goma flavour last time we we in Japan and loved it 😀🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Amazing there are a lot of good channels about Japan this one is stil the best and i think always the best!

I laughed when Eric talked about the Elephant statue commemorating the time when peoples Elephants would do the pilgrimage for them. lol!

Mmm Bukkake udon, I'm well aware what bukkake means but can't help thinking of something else =)

The covered bridge/path thing is called a breezeway. I loved that temple. The coin thing is amazing. I would spend too much time and money trying to see just how much I could float. lol

Great video! A few years ago I did the first 11 temples of the Shikoku pilgrimage. Took a few days. I hope to finish it someday.

A very polished snappy-paced video jam-packed with interesting stuff...and, indeed, what's a Kyde and Eric video without a love hotel tour and a public bathroom facility review?

Keep it coming. Slowbot saved the day? Yeah, remembered the horses.

Win the race, live out the rest of your days on a mountain temple, lose the race and end up as sakuraniku at the local Izakaya.

Wow!long time, have not see you ! Thank you for this post.

This was so fun! I'm a history nerd so I would have been so excited on the way up the stairs. Then I'd have died because I'm really out of shape, but it'd be a good death. xD

Every time I see Eric wearing that Bjork shirt I get so jealous! It’s like the coolest shirt I’ve ever seen.

I know this might sound weird but I just got home from a minor operation feeling fragile and battered and completely out of sorts. This video popped up in my inbox and I was able to just sit back and for an hour enjoy your lovely, calm, relaxed style and make my aches and pains ebb away. Thank You

This is one of my favourite videos you've shot in Japan. Can't wait to visit this temple when I go next year. Will be working a lot but hopefully will have a moment to escape to Shikoku! Maybe visit a Japanese friend I knew back in college who lives in Kagawa!

@Eric start stop engine is a fuel saving feature all modern cars have now, as you end using a lot of fuel while idling in standstill traffic. the engine cuts off after the car been stationary for certain amount of time.

I just came back from Japan two days ago and I’d stayed at the 9 hours capsule hotel in Asakusa. I totally recognized all of those landmarks you had walked through. I was even commenting to my husband that it would be so cool if we ever ran into Kyde and Eric in Japan. Didn’t knew you guys lived in that area. We were in Takayama on Saturday of the typhoon and just got rain only. Thanks for a great video, we discovered you guys when you did the Myanmar series and we were doing our research. Every time we travel to another country, we would say “google to see if Kyde and Eric hit that country yet!”

I'm impressed that you walked all the steps up!! I would have been ticked off if I got all the way to the top and there was a parking lot! LOL

Amazing video. You guys seem to really enjoy Shikoku.

This is how I need to start all my days off.

Thank you for taking me back up Konpirasan. I climbed all the way up to the top where you were in the middle of August 2011. I was a sweaty, hot mess, but it was worth it. I remember when I got up there, there was only one couple who was taking a rest. If I remember there's a stone bench on the left side just before the last stairs to that small shrine. One of the sandals that I used to hike up there was gaping because the heat melted the glue that was holding the strap to the side. Thank god it held up until I got back to my hotel in Takamatsu. I wonder if you guys saw the huge wooden lantern near the Kotoden train station?

Welcome to my home town and hope you guys enjoyed the noodles ! Watts

Yaaay! Funtime! Dinner + K&E vid!

I always wondered about the car thing too. I was taught that turning a car on and off like that waste more gas. I always thought that only hybrid cars turn off at stops.

Yall are fun!

👍and a flower for Kyde 🌻

I thought it was hysterical with the tongues then you led with girls eating cucumber in public 😆😆😆. Favorite vlog so far.

We have a VW Golf that turns itself off but the feature can be disabled with the push of a button, it doesn’t tell you how long you spent stopped though.

In England, the outside hallway is termed a cloister. Normally associated with priories and cathedrals. And often used for films (Harry Potter #1) and picturesque weddings of course :)

Road trip!

1:05:17 .. you had me at Gyoza ! :) om nom !

the coin floats easier in that larger pool of water than say, a glass because when you place the coin down youre causing less ripples to be reflected back to where the coin is which breaks surface tension and will cause the coin to fall.

im heading for four days to Shikoku, particularly Tokushima. I am super excited. Any recommendations on cheap ramen places and beer?

Imagine walking up those steps to refill the toilet paper.

Ive been to Kotohira during Sakura . Its stunning . I thought you might have made sanuki udon there .

Omg that bomb the music industry shirt is fantastic 😱

I didn't expect you eating the lemon. 😄It's like eating the lemon of a tea served with a lemon.

I now watch it in big, instead of on my phone 😊 in my comfy home. After 8 days of bedrest and the start of an immunotherapie in the hospital I think I am getting better 🙂 ans lots of Kyde and Eric rewatch it will get better even faster 😉

Was that Mt. Fuji in the end credits? What ever it was, breathtaking. ❤️❤️

If this video was titled "We Bought Lube From A Love Hotel Vending Machine" you would have at least 300,000 views.

Where does Kyde get all the travel guides you guys talk about all the time?

3:08 The buttons are for the mirrors on each side of the car.

@53:19 There's such a thing as a female urinal. My undergrad dorm had converted from all-women and still had an old one which we guys used. It's tilted at like a 45 degree angle. Made much more sense when the ladies wore skirts or dresses.

BTMI shirt I love it!

Did you guys ever do Yamadera? It's supposedly like 10,000 steps and them shits is like RIGHT up a mountain. It's rough.

i rented a nissan highway star that had something more irritating than eco mode. It had an accident avoidance system that beeped and flashed a radar like symbol in the instrument display. Even when rounding corners oncoming cars would set it off. Turning off eco mode is easy but i never found out how to turn off that damn thing.

Yey^^ Zelda reference again:p

Thanks

It’s so good that’s there was a box of cleanex at the head of the bed... classy!!!

The "love hotel with garage directly under room" thing is VERY popular in the city where I'm from, Hialeah Florida. The street that most of them are on, Okeechobee Blvd, used to be a really seedy place in the 80s with crack houses and rampant prostitution - when they finally cleaned it up in the 90s, they started putting up these fancy new love hotels (Executive Presidente Hotel, El Paraiso Motel) with that same layout. Never got to check one out, unfortunately! (both love hotels I've been to in my life were in Japan - one for the expressed purpose, the other a similar booking.com experience)

Our car turns off to lessen co2 emissions, much better for the environment especially when you are in a city to lessen all the air pollution from idling cars. My space angles , you two crack me up 🤣🤣

Man, I wish I had the time next year to do more of Japan. If you had to chose 3 days around Hiroshima, or 3 days to do the New Golden Route, which would you do?

Kyde looking pretty with her hair up

Hime means princess does it not..? Btw, Eric where do you get your amazing T-shirts from?? I must get one! :D

53:35 get a Go Girl. Silicone funnel thingy. Stand and deliver!

- @2:35 XD XD XD XD - Car idling: no yeah that exists here. Is the car you guys rented an electric? Cause I believe that's become a common electric car (and maybe hybrids too) feature here :) - OMG..the little castle icon on the GPS..that is SO Japan xD SO CUTE - @11:11 *Le Gasp* ... KYDE! ............LOL - Can we talk about Kyde's bun? I Really like her bun (in the beginning of the vid, on your guys' first day) :) - Lol what did the bot at the love motel say that made Eric laugh when you guys were leaving?? xD - lol that field of wheat or rye or whatever that Eric was standing in while talking about climbing the hill / small mountain was giving me SERIOUS Breath of the Wild vibes xD BoTW has literally ruined everything for me. Every time I see a cliff or a mountain or something I'll like thinking to myself "MAN, I Really would love to climb that a paraglide down" ........................ 'XD - Ok, I was Really loving the sound the bamboo stick was making when it was hitting the stone when you guys were walking along that sakura-lined walkway

@23:58 Wait, Kyde just chomped down on that lemon all-in style... peel and everything?!?

Eric- nice shirt. Lol

Nice map in an open plan office, looks like a bond villain lair Get Eric to act like a bond villain, with a white cat

@46:34 the amazing machine can be seen in action with this video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aNehZpOqxpnZmWg.html) at time stamp 11:05

I thought that shirt was supposed to be Big Lebowski reference at first? the Dude but kitten style.

Love hotel adventure is always fun adventure. Who is a better Japanese speaker? Eric or Kyde?

My moms Durango turns off at stoplights, I hate it lol

Eating soup with chopsticks....Challanging!

I'd dip the noodles in the broth!

Why Bruce Willis introducing udon

What was your favorite in Japan? I am going in April.

Is thë American Cartoon ->"Rick & Morty" popular in Japan.?. ( I heard Kyde, make a small reference to the show)..

Funniest episode lol.

I'll bet the water in the pool where you floated the coin is salt water!
