Wow no wonder you looked so tired! Such a fun filled time you had there! If I am never able to go to Japan, I am glad to be able to watch your videos as they share with the world your experiences. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing, Chika! This is so interesting for me! I live in Canadaour entire history dates back less than 500 years. Seeing a temple built 1700 years ago has something absolutely... magical to me!
To Todd who asked why people in Osaka stand on the right side of the escalator rather than on the left like Tokyo (I couldn't reply to your comment for some reason) . There are probably multiple theories, but my friend told me that during the Osaka World Fair, they wanted to establish some rules for managing pedestrian traffic and because right-hand traffic (passing on the left) is more dominant internationally, they decided to implement it that way and I guess it just kind of stuck :)
+Japanagos（ジャパナゴス） I'm currently planning a trip to Japan, me and my family will be staying in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka in three days per each in that order and 1 day per each for Nara, Gujo Hachiman and Kurashiki. I now this sounds like a lot of information so I'll go straight to the point. What places do you think we should visit?
+tomas dominguez We are visiting Japan for a second time, this time for a month! We will be visiting/vlogging a bunch of places and posting our itinerary!
The food looks so delicious, especially that place in which you cleaned off do many kabobs. And their version of American Subway Sandwiches where ya can specify exactly what ya want. Food looks tastier than Subways though. Also liked the people and the old Japanese architecture uninfluenced by Chinese... Love the beauty in the simplicity of that original Japanese style... That early architecture is so beautifully peaceful too... Contrasted with the excitement of the flash lights, which kind of reminds me of Las Vegas. GREAT VLOG! VERY INFORMATIVE AND INTERESTING! THANKS!
I love how this video is organized! Please do some more videos like this for Tokyo or Kyoto, even though those are very popular tourist sites, but there's aren't many videos that just talk about the culture/history and have very satisfying glimpse into the city life and shops.
Hey Chika, I just wanted to tell you that you make the best videos ever and you seem like such a sweet person! I always find myself waiting for your new uploads lol, and when I watch them I feel like I'm there with you :3 I've always wanted to go to Osaka and I think you did an excellent job showing us all how awesome it is :) Thanks!
Thanks for uploading to this channel more often! It must take a long time to put together so much footage, but the result is impressive: it really gives a sense of what a place is like. The city videos are cool, but I like the rural videos even better, like your hike to see Diamond Fuji and the autumn video in Yamanashi where you eat hoto. I look forward to seeing where you go next!
Your videos are simply fantastic! They're beautifully filmed, interesting, funny, and a wonderful combination of teaching about culture and language! Definitely subbing! :D
I really like this video! I got to visit Tokyo about 2 years ago, and I certainly want to go back. Seeing the video makes me want to see Osaka, too. Keep up the good work!
I love your videos, thanks so much for making them :) I've just got back from Tokyo,I was so impressed, that I'm planning on exploring more of Japan :) The people & food in Tokyo was incredible.... & I'm so thankful for their patience & help (my Japanese needs more work, though I found being there & listening to people, helped heaps) :) I think the only thing that would make Japan even more awesome, is if they made larger size clothes for tourists,I think Japan is missing out on a lot of tourist dollars in that respect. I'm going to Osaka soon, hoping it's as awesome as Tokyo :)
I am so glad you loved Osaka!!! there are some places I've never been to in this video but you made me I wanna visit. such a nice video to show Osaka and make people want to visit :)
Well, you just sold a trip to Osaka! I'm going to the Sumiyoshi-taisha Shrine for sure. I like that all the old and historical places are so well taken care of in Japan. Didn't know that Osaka had all those neon/lights all over, looking forward to that too!
Learning about Osaka in my Japanese History class at the moment. It's so interesting to see Osaka right now. The city really does match the merchant spirit of its early days :) So cool
Great video and presentation ! I lived in Osaka for almost 10 years. I was a bokushi for most of that time. I learned the hard way about the differences between Osaka and Tokyo when I was called on to do a wedding in Tokyo. I did my standard Kansai "genki" wedding and was almost thrown out of the place !!
Wow Chika, great insight into Osaka! You're videos are amazing, last time I went Japan was only to Tokyo and Kyoto, was unsure about visiting other areas during my time there, but after seeing this I definitely need to visit Osaka! Its amazing how varied different areas in Japan are! Please keep going with these videos, they all make me want to go back to Japan soon! Also love your other channel, super useful for my listening skills as I'm learning Japanese! :D
So my friend is planning trip to west side of japan! and she is watching this Japanagos!! I am learning English and trip tips from bilingual channel lol thanks Chika we all love you !!
Great Osaka trip video---!! I shared it all over the place! :) Thanks for letting us be part of your trip. I personally haven't been to several places you introduced (like sumiyoshi-taisha), so I'm willing to go there when I get some time!!
Wow, Osaka looks amazing, it's definitely one of the cities that I want to visit when I go to Japan... thanks for showing some interesting places to visit in Osaka (even if they are generic tourist attractions :P) That Shinto shrine is very different from any other shrine I've seen in Japan and that's what makes it all the more unique... that little girl's kimono was beautiful btw :D I seriously love watching your videos on this channel, I wish you could update more often here!
oh I didnt know you could go up Tsutenkaku and there are shops underneath it! Going again in October, so definitely will drop by! Thanks for the video!
i would love to see a longer videos of the trip maybe explaining and seeing things in more detail. I feel slightly teased with such a large city gone over in 10 minutes. Great vid looking forward to seeing more.
I always think of the Himeji castle when I think of the great castles of Japan. I've visited the Himeji castle (the white heron castle) when it was scaffolded for renovations but it is a really big castle. Now it is no longer scaffolded because the renovations are done.
I don't live in Osaka but my sister does. So I sometimes visit her and every time I go there, I always find new things! Such an interesting area so I hope many foreigners come to Osaka and enjoy that city :)
Waaaaaa, this makes me miss Osaka! :') Even though I spent a few months in Tokyo, my few days in Osaka really made an impression on me. I had some of the best food there, and the shopping is so on point. Thanks for the nostalgia
大阪は素晴らしい街です! (hopefully it's grammatically currect). Osaka is a truly amazing city, just like your videos. I will definitely go to Japan one day and Osaka will be one of my destinations. Thanks for sharing! どうもありがとうございました!
I liked the Shinto Shrine. It was nice to see what Japanese architecture looked like before outside influences altered it. A pure expression of the Japanese spirit. Thank you, Chika.
Awesome video! :) I might be studying abroad for 18 days in Osaka soon, so I was just wondering if you had to ask permission to film in some of the places you went. Thanks! :)
Great video. My girlfriend and I just booked our first trip to Japan (over Golden Week...whoops). Your videos are getting us more and more excited to come visit this intriguing country.
I visited Osaka last summer and it's so cool to see some of the same places featured in your video!! dotonburi was DEFINITELY a sight and park around osaka castle was my personal favorite
Just got back from my honeymoon to Japan and we spent about 3 days in Osaka. We were kind of kicking ourselves for spending that much time in Osaka that we could have used to spend an extra day or two in Tokyo. The Dotonbori area and Osaka castle area were awesome and we really enjoyed it, and that filled a day. However, the rest of our time we were struggling to find things that we wanted to do that was worth the commute (compared to Tokyo, we felt that the bigger attractions were much more spread apart from each other in Osaka). Still a cool experience but probably needs to be planned more strategically or carefully than places like Tokyo (where you can just walk around and be entertained).
Chika-san こんにちは! Went to kyoto, tokyo and osaka last april... OSAKA definitely a fun place ! Universal studio, osaka indoor aquarium, umeda sky building, shinsekai and of coz the Osaka castle.. def coming bak again! love ur vids ! かわいい😃😃
Chika...THANK YOU for doing such a wonderful job of capturing the heart of Osaka in your 10-minute video. It is indeed as you've shown...an exciting place to visit. The night life there is AWESOME! I want soooooo badly to return. Keep up the incredible work! Hopefully soon you will do a 10-minute video on FUGU, the puffer fish. It would be very interesting to say the least.
I was thinking of going to Osaka first from the states! Now I totally think I have the right idea! I was shocked about what you said about Japan being smaller than California! I didn't know that...Mind Blown!
ty for making this video Chika! It was like I took a mini vacation to Osaka myself ^^ I didn't expect Osaka to be so close to Tokyo...now I can visit both places when I go there for vacation :D
Osaka is on my bucket list of places to see. If I were to relocate to Japan, I think Osaka would be where I'd go. You described the people as friendly, open, and with a "go with the flow" attitude. Being from Texas, I think I'd feel at home there.
Whoa, it IS tacky! And flashy! I am not much of a city person, but I guess I will visit there one day just to say that I've been there. And the "water bus" sounds cool.
I loved the video! Thank you so much for sharing! I'm actually heading to Japan next year with a friend of mine, and I was wondering if its ok to share food, like Okonomiyaki, with another person? Or is that a no no?
This video makes me so excited to study abroad next semester! I'll be at Kansai Gaidai starting my second year of Japanese language studies! I can't to see Osaka in between getting my schoolwork done! And the food looks sooooo おいしいです！
This weekend I set off for a two week historical tour of Yamato, from Asuka to Heian-kyo. With the two day Osaka Amazing Pass I can ride all the subways and buses I want in the city and I get free admission to Tsutenkaku, Osaka-jo and the History museum, as well as dozens of other popular places.
Osaka seems lively at night..so colourful...waiting for ur next trip to Osaka..maybe u cld visit osaka castle..i wld like to know how it looks like and whats there inside.. :) thanks cika
You have visited osaka for the first time! I hope you'll visit Osaka soon again.But, there are other cool spots in kansai area.Sure I 'll meet you in My hometown Kobe next time.
Oh, that's wonderful. Thanks for the really insightful video. I applied for a scholarship offered by my country to study in Japan for a year and I'm trying to get into Osaka University. If I get accepted, I'm surely going to visit all these places!
Fenrir Sorrow Same here ! Same uni ! XD What a coincidence ! Waiting for the answer at the beginning of June ! Can't wait to visit the shrine, Shinsekai and those amazing food :333 Thank you so much for this video :D
I loved your video!! I live in Hawaii, so the Japanese presence is very strong. I love the Japanese culture and people! I will be traveling to Japan on my own this coming December by myself. Your video helped me to decide to spend a day or two in the Osaka area, in addition to my stay in Tokyo. Is there any other tips you could give me as a lone traveller to Osaka and Tokyo?
Chika! Awesome video as always :) Please consider doing one for Valentine's Day/ White Day. I'd love to teach my students in our Japanese culture club about it using your video. You are a fabulous presenter.
Tsuki570 ahhh, might not have time for a V-day video this year :( but I did make a few last year, if you haven't seen those! czcams.com/video/aRDljC6IFaY/video.html and this czcams.com/video/jmS_5p5X7c4/video.html
I did! Osaka was amazing but after staying in Osaka for 3 days, I went to Kyoto and Kyoto is a much more beautiful place in my opinion. I loved both cities though :)
Chillkrokette Osaka is sometimes compared to Chicago (working town), and Kyoto to Rome or some place like that with its many historical sites. Since the move of the capial to Tokyo, Kyoto has stagnated, and is basically just a tourist trap now in my estimation. Nara is really laid back, and much better in my estimation. Kobe is fashionable. Glad you had a good time!!
I haven`t been to Kobe and Nara yet, only Okinawa, Osaka and Kyoto. But I`ve lived and worked in Tokyo for 6 months now and have 6 more months left so I have plenty of time to go to as many places as possible :)
having been to both Tokyo and Osaka, i definitely enjoyed Osaka more - felt less crowded than Tokyo, cheap food and accommodation (by Japan standards) and the ppl were generally more outgoing
Oh! Check out Wrecking Crew's channel here! czcams.com/users/wizartsjp
awesome guys !!!!
Great video with nice tips. I plan to visit this weekend~ can't wait!
Wow no wonder you looked so tired! Such a fun filled time you had there! If I am never able to go to Japan, I am glad to be able to watch your videos as they share with the world your experiences. Thank you!

I lived in Osaka for 5 years and 3 years in Himeji. Osaka is an amazing city.
As always, a very enjoyable, high quality video! Loved it!
Ok girl I'm gonna need some more videos. You're too good at this.
Osaka has some of the warmest fun people in Japan

lookunderhere glad to hear that :)
Your videos are simply fantastic! They're beautifully filmed, interesting, funny, and a wonderful combination of teaching about culture and language! Definitely subbing! :D
Osaka is a beautiful city, I wanna visit in the spring so I can see the sakura blossoms. they are very romantic
visited there last summer, wonderful place! just knew your channel from wongfu, so great that i can learn Japanese and polish up English as well~
I really like this video! I got to visit Tokyo about 2 years ago, and I certainly want to go back. Seeing the video makes me want to see Osaka, too. Keep up the good work!

I lived in Osaka for a couple of months for work and I really liked it. I wish I could back sometime :)
I like how you present the video. It makes a very enjoyable watch :D Can't wait for my planned visit to Japan soon.
おいしい食べ物ばっかり見てたら、お腹すいた ‼︎ 私もいつか大阪にいきたいな ‼︎
Wah! Just stumbled upon your you tube channel and i love your videos, you are so happy ^^! Really want to visit Osaka one day! Keep up the good work~
This is the first video I've seen that actually made me want to visit Osaka. :)

Your guide to Osaka will be very helpful for me. My family loves to travel Japanese.
生まれも育ちも大阪ですが、通天閣の中、初めて見ました！！あんな風になっているんですね！！笑 紹介してくださってありがとうございます😊
So my friend is planning trip to west side of japan! and she is watching this Japanagos!! I am learning English and trip tips from bilingual channel lol thanks Chika we all love you !!
I visited Osaka few months ago and this video made me miss Osaka and Japan so much. I hope I can go there again some day.
Great Osaka trip video---!! I shared it all over the place! :) Thanks for letting us be part of your trip. I personally haven't been to several places you introduced (like sumiyoshi-taisha), so I'm willing to go there when I get some time!!
All thanks to you guys! I had so much fun :) hope we can hang out again soon!
I'm originally from Aichi Prefecture but now live in Osaka. I found this video very interesting. Will share this with my American friends.
Wow, Osaka looks amazing, it's definitely one of the cities that I want to visit when I go to Japan... thanks for showing some interesting places to visit in Osaka (even if they are generic tourist attractions :P) That Shinto shrine is very different from any other shrine I've seen in Japan and that's what makes it all the more unique... that little girl's kimono was beautiful btw :D I seriously love watching your videos on this channel, I wish you could update more often here!
What a lovely video! I would like to see a similar video for Tokyo and where you would bring first time visitors to.

I'll be there in March for a few days and the Sumo!
I really recommend you to visit nagoya for ur next trip!

Thankyou Chika, beautiful video and nice trip
こんにちは！初めてコメントします。ちかさんの動画２年くらい前に発見して以来ずっと観ています。（特にカナダに１年間居た時は孤独だったのでお世話になりましたｗ）私も6年ぐらい前に大阪に住んでいたのでとってもなつかしく思い出せました、ありがとうございます＾＾関西人の友達にエセ関西弁を直されたものですｗ私は最近ベトナムのホーチミンに引っ越してきて、何か始めたいと思って私もつたない英語でVlogを始めました。私がちかさんに感化されたように、私も誰かの何かのきっかけになれたらと思います。これからもベトナムから応援しています。happy smile でがんばってください！！
i would love to see a longer videos of the trip maybe explaining and seeing things in more detail. I feel slightly teased with such a large city gone over in 10 minutes. Great vid looking forward to seeing more.
I plan on uploading casual vlogs of each of the things I introduced in this video :)
I always think of the Himeji castle when I think of the great castles of Japan. I've visited the Himeji castle (the white heron castle) when it was scaffolded for renovations but it is a really big castle. Now it is no longer scaffolded because the renovations are done.
I really enjoyed this video Chika! Thank you! It would be awesome if you could make more video's like this of other cities!
RealDutchLady will do :)
Yay!
Great timing, I'm in Japan Osaka these next few days!! This video is going to be super useful 😄
shellyylovesGod awesome! hope you have a great trip!
I don't live in Osaka but my sister does. So I sometimes visit her and every time I go there, I always find new things! Such an interesting area so I hope many foreigners come to Osaka and enjoy that city :)
Good video! Thanks for the primer on Osaka.

I liked the Shinto Shrine. It was nice to see what Japanese architecture looked like before outside influences altered it. A pure expression of the Japanese spirit.
Thank you, Chika.
ImFrelled :)
Thank you for being our guide. I love your videos. And you're always so smiley. :-)
チリからこんにちは！カルロスです。It's always funny to see your videos, specially your trips. Thank you for sharing! どうもありがとうございます！Muchas gracias!
Carlos Sánchez de nada!
The Shrine reminds me of the art in Okami!
I've always wanted to go to Osaka. I want my picture taken under the giant sushi hand lol
Hi Chika, next time, let's talk about Osaka-Ben!! I love their accent! I can't wait to go back to Japan and visit more!! Thanks for the video!
Awesome Video! Thank you Chika!
Awesome video! :) I might be studying abroad for 18 days in Osaka soon, so I was just wondering if you had to ask permission to film in some of the places you went.
Thanks! :)
Great video. My girlfriend and I just booked our first trip to Japan (over Golden Week...whoops). Your videos are getting us more and more excited to come visit this intriguing country.
大阪をすてきに紹介してくれてありがとう！
なかなかアングラなところも回られたんですね。
あと、大阪の通行人、めっちゃ見てくるやん…何か恥ずかしいわww
すげー！ほんま大阪が大好きや。私は一年間に大阪の近く町に住んでたから、懐かしい‼︎日本に戻りたい‼︎通天閣に行かないことがあるけど戻る時に絶対行ってみる。いいビデオやったね
I visited Osaka last summer and it's so cool to see some of the same places featured in your video!! dotonburi was DEFINITELY a sight and park around osaka castle was my personal favorite

I want soooooo badly to return. Keep up the incredible work! Hopefully soon you will do a 10-minute video on FUGU, the puffer fish. It would be very interesting to say the least.
Osaka is the second largest city in Japan. You said third largest city...
横浜は住宅地が多いだけ。都市機能は、大坂、名古屋に劣る。
I was thinking of going to Osaka first from the states! Now I totally think I have the right idea! I was shocked about what you said about Japan being smaller than California! I didn't know that...Mind Blown!
ty for making this video Chika! It was like I took a mini vacation to Osaka myself ^^ I didn't expect Osaka to be so close to Tokyo...now I can visit both places when I go there for vacation :D

I live in Osaka city.So I enjoyed watching this video better than other video!
This was fantastic! You are extremely charismatic!
Tokyo is an amazing city but I really like Osaka. Seems a little more laid back. Also, it is quick to get out of the city to explore the mountains.
Whoa, it IS tacky! And flashy! I am not much of a city person, but I guess I will visit there one day just to say that I've been there. And the "water bus" sounds cool.
大阪の良い所すごくうまく紹介されてますね〜
若い頃に3年間住んでました。。すごく懐かしく感じられました。
でも、凄ーいハードスケジュール😅
これが大阪観光の起爆剤になると良いですね‼️京都、奈良+大阪
なお、私は愛知県人ですww 愛知県の紹介もよろしくお願いします。
名古屋から30分程の犬山市には戦国時代からのお城と城下町があります。名古屋城はコンクリート製の再建ですが、犬山城はオリジナルです。😄
松本浩一 実際住んでいた方にそう言って頂けると凄く嬉しいです！ 今年は日本中の色んなスポットをシェアしていきたいと思っています☆
Osaka looks like a lot of fun! I will definitely be visiting it someday.
Enjoy the vedio so much
Your editing is perfect: )
Candie Davis thank you! That makes me so happy! The editing on this one took me forever for some reason!
I loved the video! Thank you so much for sharing! I'm actually heading to Japan next year with a friend of mine, and I was wondering if its ok to share food, like Okonomiyaki, with another person? Or is that a no no?
This video makes me so excited to study abroad next semester! I'll be at Kansai Gaidai starting my second year of Japanese language studies! I can't to see Osaka in between getting my schoolwork done! And the food looks sooooo おいしいです！
pageizzle666 that's awesome! you're gonna have so much fun!
This weekend I set off for a two week historical tour of Yamato, from Asuka to Heian-kyo.
With the two day Osaka Amazing Pass I can ride all the subways and buses I want in the city and I get free admission to Tsutenkaku, Osaka-jo and the History museum, as well as dozens of other popular places.
Can you take us to Kobe to see the giant Tetsujin 28 and any other attractions in the area? Very good presentation on Osaka, btw.
I just saw a programme on NHK World about Videos go viral ..and guess whos in it :D so happy for you , gabare Chika ^^

Your country is awesome. Great video!
金龍ラーメン食べたばかり！
美味しいよね🎵
You have visited osaka for the first time! I hope you'll visit Osaka soon again.But, there are other cool spots in kansai area.Sure I 'll meet you in My hometown Kobe next time.
Oh, that's wonderful. Thanks for the really insightful video. I applied for a scholarship offered by my country to study in Japan for a year and I'm trying to get into Osaka University. If I get accepted, I'm surely going to visit all these places!
Fenrir Sorrow exciting! best of luck!
Fenrir Sorrow Same here ! Same uni ! XD What a coincidence ! Waiting for the answer at the beginning of June ! Can't wait to visit the shrine, Shinsekai and those amazing food :333 Thank you so much for this video :D

Tsuki570 ahhh, might not have time for a V-day video this year :( but I did make a few last year, if you haven't seen those! czcams.com/video/aRDljC6IFaY/video.html and this czcams.com/video/jmS_5p5X7c4/video.html
Awww ok. Thanks for the links! ;)
I`m gonna go to Osaka tomorrow and then stay for one week, now I`m even more excited.
Chillkrokette hope you had a great time in Osaka!
Chillkrokette How was it?
I did! Osaka was amazing but after staying in Osaka for 3 days, I went to Kyoto and Kyoto is a much more beautiful place in my opinion. I loved both cities though :)
Chillkrokette Osaka is sometimes compared to Chicago (working town), and Kyoto to Rome or some place like that with its many historical sites. Since the move of the capial to Tokyo, Kyoto has stagnated, and is basically just a tourist trap now in my estimation. Nara is really laid back, and much better in my estimation. Kobe is fashionable. Glad you had a good time!!
I haven`t been to Kobe and Nara yet, only Okinawa, Osaka and Kyoto. But I`ve lived and worked in Tokyo for 6 months now and have 6 more months left so I have plenty of time to go to as many places as possible :)
Grazie mille 😍👍👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌎🎤🎧🆗
having been to both Tokyo and Osaka, i definitely enjoyed Osaka more - felt less crowded than Tokyo, cheap food and accommodation (by Japan standards) and the ppl were generally more outgoing
