Hey everyone!! How long has it been since we've done a video with Sharla?!
Where is that Notification and Comment squad? --- **BONUS POINTS IF YOU CATCH THE SURPRISE** lol its honestly pretty hard to miss...
Thank you all and see you again.... Real soon!
Crazy suit, skateboard and nerf shoes
Cool insoles, just don’t pump until the powder comes out like that movie lol
those shoes looked awesome, i would wear those
Was the surprise the pigeon socks? I didn't really notice anything else... hm... :thinking:
The surprise was the river running down so beautiful.
So nice to see you and sharla together again, you have so much funny together laughing.
That milkshakes sharla got you I'm sorry I could try it 😱🤮.
Lived the view so beautiful.
😀😍💙💖🌸🌸⛩🎎🗼XXXXXXX
Wow you were in Sendai! Glad that you liked the chunky weirdly good Zunda shake!
Ryotaro the man
glad to see you're doing well risottoro
Ryotaro, I've heard that there's a man in Sendai that has the best drip ever with the name of "Broad". Do you perhaps know someone like that?
Norm x Ryotaro collab onegai!
Eyyyy risottoro is here!
*Beeeeeeeeeeeeeep* 😂😂😂😅
😂 so vulgar today you are~
That pokemon suit you got for Norm's Bday is amazing, where'd you get it, if you don't mind telling us?
Yeah, going back at that time slowly, we can see those wasps at like 9:20 ... Brrr.
last time I hear Sharla swear so much she was on a rollercoaster with Chris ^_^
Sharla, I would have been the same if I saw them too!!!!!
I love how contrasting my favorite living in Japan CZcamsrs content are:
Here it's like, a nice hike in some hidden Japanese forest, a tour to thrift shops, a very relaxing evening around Sendai with Sharla...
Meanwhile, Chris Broad, Abroad in Japan be like:
"OY GUV, IMMA TAKE CONNOR, THAT FOKIN WELSH CUNT, INTO A YAKUZA FILLED HALF STAR MOTEL IN HELL. WHO WILL ACTUALLY DIE THIS TIME??" *queue upbeat copyright free song*.
I love it!
Beautiful comment 😂
I know a lot of people hate the rain, but I would honestly love a japanese rainy day video.
rain is the most relaxing weather imo
though it would be a drag to have all your electronics out when the sky is having a water fight with you
I love the rain. I am not a sunny summer kind of person, at all.
Rain is only good if you are at home lol
Rain just has that feel to it. Having lived most of my life in a country where monsoons and typhoons are quite common, you'd think I'd hate the rain. But no, I love walking down the urban sidewalks while I shield myself from the rain with my personal umbrella. The sound of car wheels going through rain-soaked asphalt and the pitter-patter of the rain on concrete just...* chef's kiss *
Norm and Sharla together in a video is soooooo enjoyable, and uplifting.
I know everyone's talking about the hornets and beans, but can we appreciate the absolute drip with nerf kicks and pokemon suit
No joke. I now know what to wear during my PhD defense. Asserting dominance.
Major Drip on 💯
I can imagine Chris being all upset that he wasn't included. He'll probably make a video titled "I HAVE NO FRIENDS IN SENDAI!!" LOL
For anyone that's curious, that first moth was a female gypsy moth laying eggs. That tan-colored egg casing is actually made with the scales of her abdomen. The males fly and the females don't. They are an invasive species here in the northeastern United States, established since the early 1900s. They can be incredibly destructive and this year has been particularly bad but I have to admit that the infestation gave the forests west of the White Mountains a hauntingly ethereal vibe when I visited in July.
It's 'bean' too long since we've seen Shar and you together.. yaaay!
LOL laughed out loud a little too hard there haha
The Canadian Buddies are back, and today they are trying the most hip drink in Sendai .... Edamame Smoothie chunky edition 🥤
Sharla's reaction to hornets besides being hilarious is super relatable 🤣🤣
Love the video as always, wish you both the best and stay safe 😘
I just love how kind you was by helping the van driver. Mad respect
It made me laugh when you had to beeeeeep Sharla over and over and over lol. She's always been my favorite CZcamsr. She's such a kind and genuine person and I've always respected and liked that about her :) And Norm, congratulations on getting the shoes. They suit you very well. Speaking of suits, that Pokemon suit is great :)
It's such a wild coincidence that every location in this video(apart from that Tokio department store) I've been to back in 2018. Spending a day (and night) in Akiu onsen, having a walk through the Rairaikyo gorge, taking in a panoramic view of the entire Sendai City up the Aoba Castle ruins, and looking out from the observatory during golden hour.
It almost felt like a trip back in time!
Love your work, the editing is always amazing. Always puts a smile on my face when I see your videos 😁
Cheers!!
Today I learned that if a path only looks moderately sketchy you should still follow it.
Jokes aside, I loved having a video with you and Sharla again, it was a lotta fun! Sendai seems so nice, I hope i can go there one day ~
((Also I almost choked on my noodles when the Pokemon suit appeared help xD))
Yea….if the path is sketchy just send Norm first lol
@@rebeccakrupke8334 and let him bump into a wasp nest thingy xD
Editing workflow on point as usual 👌🏽
Haha thanks Nigel~
Oh Norm, you made me spit out my coffee when you showed up in the suit Sharla gifted you...that's amazing! Love it! You totally need to show up to a meeting in it! :D
Seeing Sendai from a different perspective instead of the one I saw from Abroad in Japan was a welcome experience! Btw that view from the mountaintop is AAAAMMMAAAZZZZZZINNNNGGGG!!!!
SHARLA'S BACK. Also didn't knew she moved to Sendai.
Happened super recently!
@@TokyoLens Must have. I remembered seeing a couple videos recently where she mentioned she was in Morioka
I got goosebumps just by seeing Sharla's reaction plus all the blips of censorship. Then you showed the hornets nest, and I understood why she got so scared.
So great to see you with Sharla! Adventure time 😊😊
😊
There's definitely something about watching a video like this and going "I recognize that, I've been there!" that gives you the warm fuzzies. Can't wait to go back.
Yep, Japanese countrysides are like that. Very Nostalgic
After all the very chill solo videos this was all chaos. So much fun.
Sendai is sooo beautiful!! It's always peaceful to live in a place which has a combination of everything in it...the weather, nature, city!
Sendai is the home of Yuzuru Hanyu, Japan’s greatest figure skater ever.
Great work man, as always.
Thanks~
Sharla is always a great addition to any video, but what got my attention the most was actually the car rental service you mentioned. Sounds both handy and clever!
Double Trouble! It's so nice seeing you two on a vídeo together! :)
I love videos with Sharla they're always the best vibe and something funny always seems to happen lol
I love your expression when you taste the milkshake. I've never seen a face that so clearly screamed "wait this is good?"
Her reaction when she've noticed the nest was priceless 😂and I feel like Sharla loves forcing people into drinking this shake 🤣
I love your videos, especially those that feature Sharla. The views you give us are spectacular, and the music reminded me of the movie "Terms of Endearment." Totally enjoyed this outing - thanks for taking us along!
I have some business in Sendai at the end of this month and have a few days off to explore.. super pumped. Nice timing on this video😩❤️
That suit is amazing, but those shoes are perfect for you!!! Plus, pigeon socks! The best.
Gorges always look amazing. Clothing combo at the end should be a MUST wear in every meeting going forward, unless something more colorful comes along.
This video was so nostalgic for me! I lived in Sendai (right down the street from Sendai station and AER building) for 3 years and that view from Aoba-Jo takes me right back! How many Date Masamune did you see while you were there? If you ever go back, you should head to Jozenji-dori and see the Mediatheque all lit up at night. It's a great place to relax or get some work done.
Love seeing my fellow Canadians together… brings so much joy!
Man I love your videos, they are so full of positive energy and that just makes me happy and smile
Sendai is a great city. I was surprised the first time by how hilly it can be in places. I had always assumed it was flat. What also impressed me were the cherry blossom trees everywhere and the broad tree lined streets that create a nice canopy. Before my last visit there, I spent the weekend at Yunushi Ichijo, a ryokan in a mountain hotspring town just outside Shiroishi. One day I went into Shiroishi to see its castle. It was the first time I saw a large town in Japan where literally half the buildings were gone because the population had shrunk so much. This is a town that is on the main line from Sendai to Tokyo too. I wasn't expecting that at all.
The colors of those shoes really work together, very late 80's/early 90's... reminds me of my childhood.
Sendai seems like such a cool city. I hope I can visit one day. Also, I always enjoy it when Sharla makes an appearance. She seems super chill.
P.S. You have to wear the suit with the pump shoes. Anything less would look ridiculous.
Norm is amused by clouds ⛅️ while sharla is with butterflies 🦋 you're so cute!
Thanks to you guys, Sendai landed on our travel list 😊 thanks for taking us along 🦋
Just have to say...you and Sharla are simply lovely together. What a friendship.
And the "birthday suit" is in-freaking-credible.
That was so beautiful! Thank you guys, love Sharla 😺
too
Love the calm energy, yet excitement of seeing new places.
Ahhh awesome notif to wake up to! ^.^ can’t wait to watch this one, you and Sharla are always a pleasure to watch
Norm & Sharla! I absolutely love when y’all do videos together!! You both are my favorite CZcamsrs right now! Norm your videos are so beautiful & calming. I got happy chills watching this one! My dream is to one day be able to have a camera like yours & travel around Japan my birth place. I just got back from hiking & camping out in Estes Park, CO! My body is kind of dead, lol! 🤪✌️
I don't know which is funnier; Sharla panicking/singing a melody of f*cks in the background or Norm saying: "Nuuoohhhh", then proceeds to pace forward whilst being calm *10 mins later* Norm: I wanna go back and get a shot of it now *5 mins later* Sharla: *shows Norm the nest* Norm: *realizes how serious and dangerous it could have actually been* *laughs nervously* --
Really love the Norm-Sharla dynamics here hahaha please do more videos in Sendai together pleaseeeee; and as always, great content, Norm!
Thanks for mentioning the music you use in the comments. Such brilliant choices!
That Poke suit is tha bomb, bro. All serious business meetings must from now on be so attired, colorfully and vividly expressive.
Imagine a G5 summit where only pop-culture theme suits are worn by all in attendance. The future is assured, my friend : )
That suit and shoe combo is perfection 🤌
I love it when you guys film together!
Lol you're stylin' in that suit!! And those shoes are fantastic colors!
Super happy to see you do another vid with Sharla. Bonus for it being in Sendai. That was the last stop on my time in Japan with work. Brought back all the feels and memories of walking around the station every day. Even that tunnel in your opening shot was part of a regular route for me. Such a great and underrated city. Thanks again for drawing me into your world and keeping me smiling.
Great to see you two together again, my fave terrible twosome 😁😁😁
this is wholesome man, love your videos, been watching your videos since just now, ady done few almost 30 mins video, never tired of it. keep it up man.
Nice to see you out and about with Sharla. When I was in Sendai, I had the chance to see Sendai from Mt. Aoba. That was a nice view of the city. You really need a pair of sunglasses to look at you in that suit.😂😂
Ahh, my two favs together again. Btw, I finally received my explore always hoodie. Can’t wait to wear it!!
Missed seeing you two together!! Enjoyed this video xx
Those landscape shots with the clouds are gorgeous Norm! Would make amazing screen savers.
you know what they say, save the best for the last. I just make sure the thumb is up for now and enjoy the vid tomorrow.
Having your two favorite you tubers in the same video is the adult version of cartoon crossovers.
Glad to see Sendai. My fiance is from near there so it's really nice to watch with her and have her show me places she's been.
sendai is one of the places i am considering living in to study one day so i am very excited for this video!~ (comments before i watch it? yes lol)
Your content is so fun lately I love this video and the thrift shop one! I miss exploring and your videos have been such a great escape! 😁😁
The view in that edamame place is just amazing. Those clouds man, so beautiful.
Love you guys together ❤️
I also obsess over clouds and mountains :p
Yay another member of the Nippon CZcams video universe! 🙂
I've been following both Sharla and Chris for so long (and now more recently; last five years or so, the guys on trash taste), I'm so surprised CZcams never recommended your channel to me! I love your content!
You guys are having fun in Japan.
So many beautiful views, I really liked those driving shots too.... as I was typing this that last scene with the pokemon suit... new favorite thing right there
Wonderful Video. Hope one day i will be visiting Japan. Maybe visit Sendai and hopefully have the chance to say hi to Norm and Sharla as well.
12:21 "Not that!"
What a fun video, loved watching the two of you together!
Such a beautiful place, loved the video man!! Keep up the amazing work!
I love it when you two team up! That outfit was so over the top amazing. It deserves a photo shoot come fall.
I like that on the background, you can hear the cicadas, I find it really relaxing
Awesome vlog thanks . Those nerf shoes oh yeah ! The suit , total madness . Love it . I am obsessing with all the greenery in the video.
Excellent video,Norm!
😊
There’s a rice field behind my house and I don’t like it at all. There are a lot of frogs, snakes, mosquitoes, and other things cross the filed and get into my house. When it’s time to harvest, the noise from the grain harvester almost scare my cat to dead, every time.
Ow, I've been up that AER building. Super nice views, and if I remember correctly, free.
Love the suit with the Nerf Pumps. Definitely a good look for the Fall or Spring.
Chunky edamame milkshake here i come!!! Love it!
Also love that you and sharla are pokemon fans! Yey!!!
Love the new kicks...and suit. 🤣
Nice video .... Good to see Sharla in one again.
Almost went to Sendai in 2012 but ended up going to Sapporo instead. Probably will end up going there trip after next (although hornets are a reason to avoid anywhere!)
Great video Norm
Those cicadas are crazy. Many anime shows feature cicadas during their summer episodes, but now I see it's an actual thing...
The cicadas at 0:56 sound like the ones in Evangelion. Pretty cool to listen to the real thing.
Norm comes to Sendai, almost instantly drags Sharla out in to the wilderness to be eaten by all kinds of nasty butterflies. 😂
Yeah I love Sendai, it have a really nice vibe to it, hard to explain.
My Mood Today: Sharla saying "It's Chunky!" about the bean smoothie LOL
Always FUN with SHARLA!
Great to see you two in a video again! Can’t wait for the next one with all the hidden gems she’ll find :)
I love the Shorm vibe in these videos! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the tour!
So much to like in this video. First, the Reebok x Nerf collab shoes (did you know there are/were Pump hockey skates) are awesome. Next, the Charizard plushie is too cute. Sharla talking about the huge butterfly then getting attacked by it was pretty funny (come back, yeah. YAAAACK!). Norm bumping the hornet's nest, Sharla looking puzzled at it then realizing what it is and going "Oh f*** f*** f*** f***!" would be a funny cartoon. Sharla thoroughly enjoyed the chunky bean shake. The best part of the video, Sharla was in it. Yeah, I'm a Sharla fan. I've been watching her videos when she was still consuming dairy (like when she went to Nakano Broadway and got that huge ice cream cone. I even did a drawing of it. It's on IG.) Sharla is awesome. That Norm guy is also not too bad. Hahaha.
I wanna move to Sendai so bad (failing that to Western Japan). I wanted to move there last year but my company sent me to Aomori instead (from Kuzumaki in Iwate). After a couple of years here I'll try again to get there. This video makes me wanna move even more lol
How'd it go?
oh my god....the suit...........combo it with the Nerf shoes and the skateboard lol~~~ nice one Sharla~~ well played XD
haha the Cicada sound at 0:56 reminds me of just every anime ever
I love outdoors , so I'm planning a move to Japan in the very near future 😘 . Nature is always " GREAT " !!! 🥰🥰🥰
