HUGE thanks to everyone for your support over the year, and for tuning in to enjoy the videos!
BUT what was your highlight of the year? AND what do you want to see us cover in the videos in 2017? LET US know in the comments below! (Your ideas may well actually happen)
Abroadin Japan I've been waiting too long for a new video!
Abroadin Japan what's Natsuki's twittee
Abroadin Japan we love you! keep up the good vids
Abroadin Japan I think 2017 needs more Natsuki! and maybe challenge Kinoshita Yuka to an eating challenge;)
Just keep doing more of the same shit Chris, you should just do what you want to do.
Natsuki is obviously the star of the show, but you're a pretty cool guy too.
I wish you all the best in the years to come, I'll keep watching your videos as long as you keep making them!
You and Natsuki are the best thing to happen to CZcams
yep
Agreed
Fax😂😂😂you should also check out natsuki on Tokyo creative. His jokes🤣🤣
You mean the best thing to happen to ME!
2016: Wasn't a total disaster
2020: Hold my corona
Just came to make that joke XD
2020 is a lot better when watching these two wouldn’t you agree?
True great binge watch for day who knows of stuck in the house
2020: "Here's a Volcano eruption, earthquakes, and a potential World War too."
oshit
If Natsuki were to become king, I would call him Natsuking.
Street Skater 66 ??
If someone kills him, you could call him Natsushi.
or Natsukihito
FaKing ?
Natsuki-sama
"So he got his chocolate fries..."
- I love a groundbreaking reaction video.
Hey Chris, I love your videos and you've inspired me to make my own YT channel about living abroad. I'm moving to Korea this year and I'd like to name my channel Abroad in Korea. I realize it's not very original, but would you be alright with that? If not I'll come up with a different name :)
You will have to find a Korean Natsuki
Why not sick with what you already have and call it 'Popular in Korea', 'Popular Korea' or even just start uploading under the name your already using, its not bad as it is. Hope that helps.
I'm relieved to know that. All is right with the world.
Make Natsuki the biggest Japanese celebrity since Watanabe!
Who's Watanabe?
Now I want Natsuki to meet Ken!
Chris, you should do a "Best of Natsuki" video. Instant video antidepressants right there.
If Natsuki's getting one Ryotaro should get one too
That awkward moment when Natsuki can say "Fucking" better than any other English word.
Unfortunately I didn't have a 'fucking golf Christmas' this year :(
Hardly even got out of bed, I slept most of the day lmao
I thought he said "goth Christmas" hahaha. Imagining black Christmas trees and shit.
I was really sick and nearly in hospital over Christmas & New years. Talk about shit
I feel you bro
I am from Canada and happen to appreciate your sarcastic English snooty style. You need to interview the yakuza or something.
Lightwish Light he needs to do that 100%
Justice Kuran - I mean I have seen Vice interview the Yakuza, so why can't our boy interview them also? I think it would be great!
Yeah he totally should , might even make a front page of the news if we're lucky ( well unlucky for him )
best.idea.ever
greg h xD
4:30 truly ahead of his time
now I have to watch all of these videos from 2016 haha That's amazing, you appeared on tv and in the news from UK and USA and how many people you reach with the channel. 5 years later is still a great sucess. well done!
Just wanna be the first one to reply
Just wanna be the second one to reply
Why did he appear on the news in the UK
@@Kotoamatsukami6910 He ate 400 babies from the UK that he imported to Japan and also bought an island in the pacific that he turned into a miniature tokyo.
@@theothertonydutch Everything can happened in Dave in Japan
"have a fucking golf christmas" is now my favorite quote
one thing that i havent seen from any japanese youtuber is sports, can you go to a football match, baseball etc?
Senpai, teach me how to act sarcastically charming.
It is not a talent you can learn, simply a gift you are burdened with. Can you handle the overbearing weight of such a gift that you must carry everytime you open your mouth?
Natsuki is a LEGEND!
I haven't been subscribed to your channel long, about 2 weeks, but during those 2 weeks i've watch all 90+ videos of yours. Your characteristic sarcasm and lack of "over-enthusiasm" (a good thing, like what you mentioned in your Satirical Vlog) gives me, the viewer, a certain feeling that you're a lot more adapted to Japan, compared with other vloggers who seem more like holiday tourists rather than residents. I just wanted to give you my thanks for entertaining me and giving me a beautiful insight into Japan! Going forward into 2017 I would love to see you do some more city life videos :) things like "Nightlife in Japan" and "Rush hour in Tokyo" sort of thing :) it would also be good to see a Geisha video from you, too.
Once again, thank you so much, keep up the high quality work!

You should make video about 100 yen sushi vs 100.000 yen sushi kinda stuff, to poke fun at buzzfeed
and lastly, i hope you'll gonna have a great fucking 2017
He'd have to win 10 bets before he can afford 100,000 yen sushi. And we all know how his track record is.
*Hah!* He doesn't need any of that! All he has to get is a portable (or even stationary) bunsen burner and a knife, I think you all know where I'm headed with this. . .
_1000 DEGREE KNIFE CUTS _*_insert random object of interest here_*
bobbywrtm does JPY 100k even exist? i know 3 michelin stars sushi is about 30K.
Man chris broad is the funniest dude ever, thanks for always cheering me up :)
Discovered your channel just today, I absolutely love it! cannot stop going through all your videos and watching them to the last second - awesome work dude.
My favorite find of 2016 was your channel. In a world of samey, mediocre people talking into cameras, you were my favorite.
Hope your new year is like a magic Chris.
everything natsuki says becomes a catchphrase
Love the channel. Not only are the videos funny but I'm enjoying learning about Japan. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Thank you for running this channel, every time i feel bad about myself or my life, i just come here and watch your way more boring life, makes me feel much better instantly. Great stuff, thx!
More Ryotaro, please! :D
I love how substantial your videos are. Even this recall vid; most would just stitch highlights of the vids, but your added commentary and additional vids of people reacting makes this really worthwhile. Congrats on another year, and may your new year be more awesome!
Captain Fuzz, some suggestions: the desert in Japan, bar hopping, weird museums, moar pets (ain't that cat lonely?), and moar food! :D
Will Natsuki cut your hair this year Chris?! He is a hairdresser right?! Would make a good video!
I think you are a doing a brilliant job, and this is easily one if my favorite channels! Thanks for doing what you do.
Love the channel, Chris! I've been having a bit of a rubbish time lately, but discovered Abroad in Japan and every single video makes me smile. Thank you for bringing a little happiness into my life during a rough spot. Cheers mate.
I love your videos, they're a breath of fresh air; keep up the great work! Happy new year!
Maybe do a video where you find a random tourist and introduce him/her to something cultural or a food thing. Like go to the airport and hold up a sign that says "hire a youtuber for an authentic 'like a magic' tour experience". Who wouldn't be stoked to spend a few hours learning and doing fun stuff!?!
Love your videos!
honestly stumbling upon your channel was pure gold. i am planning a month long trip to Japan, and this channel has been great in introducing me to fun stuff to do and the unique quirkiness of Japanese culture. Thanks and keep the good work!
Big hugs from Canada. Love your channel. Hope to see much more in the new year. Take care of yourself!
I found this channel 3 nights ago and I can't cope I'm fucking addicted and I should be studying for my optometry degree but I CANNOT BECAUSE THIS CHANNEL IS INCREDIBLE AND THE SARCASM SPEAKS TO ME ON ANOTHER LEVEL
For an English lesson, take Natsuki to see some Engrish signs/merchandise and ask him what he thinks it means.
Nice videos Chris. I enjoy watching your channel and I am happy every time a new video comes out. Keep up the good work, the effort and the optimism.
I dont like commenting on old videos, especially from 6 ... years ... ago. That said, you've come a long way. Your vids bring me knowledge and happiness simultaneously. I have found i binge on them when im sad, they pull me right out. Thanks Chris!
I'm excited about you starting youtube full time :) Good job Chris!
Love your videos! Definitely made my 2016 better. Hugs!!
I just love watching you and Natsuki, you two have made 2020 so much less shitty than it would have been otherwise. I call my vacuum a “fu@king cleaner” too, tell Natsuki he nailed it the first time, he’s just precious and so much fun. My dream is to travel to Japan since 1984 when my brother got married to his Japanese wife and my Mom came home and told me how beautiful it was and how much she loved the people. I was a single working Mom at the time and couldn’t make the trip, now they live in San Diego, he retired from the US Navy in case you hadn’t figured that out already. I’m trying to watch all of your videos and having a blast. You’re amazing.
Been loving the channels for a long time now Chris! Can't wait to see how the new year works out for you. All the best!
Please never stop uploading. I'm actually in tears laughing right now
I really did love your over the top vlog though! It was so funny how you parodied so much vlogging tropes !
Thank you for entertaining us. Love your channel from the start! Greatings from Sweden!
I like the fact that you effortlessly covered the hard work you did behind the screen. Those editing, light and monologues are so on point. :) Plus, you seem like a genuinely nice guy.
I actually like your humor. :) Pretty ssarcastic. Not sure if that's a common attribute of the British but yeah. Love your experience/living in Japan.
"Overexcited people in a room in America" That's just everyone over there.
ScottishCunt so true have you seen ellen degeneres show they all scream and jump . like why ??
I'm American and I can say that's pretty accurate. Honestly I don't know why though. 😅
~:~
Don’t forget the fact that we also overreact to everything if we are on some sort of reality tv show
A Girl don’t forget when middle aged american men scream at the tv like its going to make a football team play better
@@jimbones3378 You have very clearly never seen anyone of any other race watch sports lol
Loved every single one of your videos this year. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to whatever you put out in 2017!
I don't even remember when I subscribed to you but it's definitely been around the 2-year mark and your channel is definitely one of my favourites. Your channel is really one of a kind and I look forward to more videos this year. 👌👌🎉
do reviews on expensive fruits I heard Japan have special expansive fruits
I second this notion
i love expansive fruits, they just get bigger and bigger
yourguardianangel
I love you 😂
That piano sound effect is honestly one of my favorite parts of the channel. Please keep using it in 2017 chris, thats all I ask.
My man, you have my endless admiration for becoming a full time CZcamsr in Japan! I love your channel and I think your videos are all great! Keep up the good work!
I really enjoyed the videos you did with Ryotaro this year :D I'd really like to see more in 2017 !
Happy new year Chris, I wish you the best
04:20 "Some people were equally disappointed I didn't try to wander through the forest and find a dead body or an abandoned tent like you're supposed to."
ROTFL
Holy SHIT did this age perfectly
When is Natsuki starting his youtube career?
What is your profile picture from? Or who is the artist?
Character is Momiji Inubashiri from Touhou. Taken form this image cdn.awwni.me/o54s.jpg
kazumo1 Thanks!
Love this channel - what I would love to see more of are videos on the rich culture in Japan like their movies, books, music and theater.
Genuinely my favorite youtube channel! You and Natsuki are the best, happy new years to you mate
10:00 PREACH! That was some of the best *satire* I've seen on CZcams ^^
Never forget vacuum cleaner and "good sink"
Love your contents on this channel. although this video just recap but i am looking forward to see you and naski just goof around in the future!
I just came across your channel, you are absolutely lovely. Thanks for the wonderful videos!
"fucking golf" is gotta be a thing
'chicken boy' classic :) keep up the good work
I appreciate the commentary alongside the videos. A lot of youtubers just lazily slap together a video as a list of clips and call it a day.
Dude, keep showing your humour. Been a fan for years!!! Love it
Mr snuggles was the best I need to see more of him
I love your channel, you make me laugh so hard lol
Natsuki is the best ahaha that vacuum cleaner joke killed me
Strangely, out of all of them, what made me stick around and subscribe was your video on Tsukiji fish market. That one was so professionally done and offered pretty cool insights.
Well, that and the love hotels.
Hello from Australia! good to see the first video of 2017. Hoping to see more of Natsuki in the future!!
I love Ms. Snuggles
Abroad in North Korea.
Mr Snuggles was one of the first videos of yours that I watched and I stuck around and watched every video since. So it's safe to say it worked flawlessly.
+Abroadin Japan Really enjoy videos, wit and sarcasm. Hoping for another amazing year!
Natsuki!!!!
Dear full time youtube person , I'd love to see a video about idol culture in Japan.
I love eating late night suppers while watching your videos. The best.
So good. Congrats on the great year. Look forward to more videos!
Got a question Chris; no worries if you don't wanna answer (might be too personal). But I was wondering what sort of Japanese residential status you have as a full time CZcamsr? I'm thinking some sort of self-employed one? Cos I make CZcams videos full time as well and I'm wondering if moving and living in Japan is at all possible as a full time CZcamsr.
Again, sorry if this is too personal. You and your videos kick ass by the way :)
He does have a regular job I think? Isn't he a language teacher?
facuu cleaner 😂
It's a trap! Fac- fuck-you. Fucking- creaner?!
Fuck You Creamer
I'm a new subber but man I love your videos, kind of humor I like most...but especially when you and Natsuki are hanging out. It's just nice to see two friends taking the piss out of one another and laughing so much.
I came back to watch this after watching more recent videos with Natsuki and his English has improved so much!! Well done Natsuki!
Natsuki is my favorite human being ever.
is natsuki your boyfriend
Elisabet Roa he's a chicken boy with two boyfriends. Natsu chan and ryo chan lol
Yes
a student
They are in open relationship
Elisabet Roa daisuki rhymes
A late happy new year! Just discovered your channel and I really like it! Japan is definitily on my travel wish list from now on! Thanks and keep on going! Greets from Belgium;
Really good news to hear that you can do CZcams full time. Really looking forward to your videos in 2017!
I miss Mr. Snuggles.
All I wanna see is you and Natsuki pissing about while drunk lol
Avant Pepe his second channel! Check it out!
Yeah I've seen that lol, it's only 1 vid. We need more
lmao, please never stop Chris. Your videos give me life
Thanks for this year! :D
I hope 2017 will be as better as 2016 was for you and your channel.
You and Natsuki make me laugh almost everytime, so that number one is perfect x)
Some love from France!
More Natsuki!!
Absolutely love your sense of humor! Some ppl need to lighten up a bit. And fuckin Natsuki! That dude is comedic gold bruh😂😂😂
Looking forward to new vids in 2017! Awesome videos. Will visit Japan next year, and strangely found your videos educational.
I love your videos and your humor, keep up the good work mate.
i want to see world war 2 things in japan ! :D
or travel to okaido because we're planning to go there this year and i need a british dude with bad sarcastic humor to inform me XD
and happy 2017!
You gotta tell me what that bomb-ass outro music is!
Hey man, I've always enjoyed your videos! Thank you for all of this! You and your videos have made 2016 fantastic! I look forward to 2017's videos!
Love every video from you. Just bloody brilliant.
Can you do a video on the train system in Tokyo?
2016 was also the best year for me! I moved to Japan and am enjoying really well :D still hoping to hanging out with you once, when I got to Sendai that is :P or you come to Tokyo :D
learning japanese in a language school
nice
Random Guy in Japan
how is it going? I want to experience Japan before I officially decide what to do in University.
possibly a work-holiday or host home sounds great
Thankyou for all the amazing videos chicken boy 💜 I'd love more japan food videos please!
Chris, I have really enjoyed the travel-adventure videos the most thus far. I really feel that you produce a good balance between them and the funnier bits.
The funny videos started me following your channel, but searching out videos about foreigners living in Japan and experiencing the Japanese culture, is what brought me to those videos in the first place. Hence, my appreciation of the travel-adventure pieces infused with just the right amount of your brand of humor. I think if they were all "funny" videos, or all "travel" videos, it would get a bit stale and stagnate. You remind me of the television personality, Josh Gates, here is the US. I could honestly see you having your own travel-adventure show one day. I really enjoy your creativity, work, and humor.
