Thanks for shining a light on the Fukushima exclusion zone, its people, and the ongoing efforts to bring life back to the region. Fukushima's resilience truly symbolizes the unyielding spirit of Japanese people.

I gotta say it now
Chris has the best channel showcasing a country
Not only the trends but also covering the things which were somewhat forgotten
All this without being a nuisance to the Japanese people and their culture
Hats off

I'm a Japanese from Namie Town and lived and grew up there until I was 16 years old.
Thank you for sending the current situation of my hometown to the world.
I only have a chance to go back when I visit the grave of my grandmother who died soon after I was born and my grandfather who died in 2016, but I hope I can live there again someday.

As a Japanese I cannot thank you enough, like really. All these years of bs which still is going on today (you know) and you shed a light to this whole thing once again. Thank you.

As much as I like the wacky hijinks, I feel this is where Chris's talent as a videographer really shine. The amount of work that he puts into making great documentary like these an into showing us these parts of Japan that we rarely see is why I keep coming back to this channel!

This is why I became a patreon member of Abroad in Japan! I really love the documentary that you made, the quality and care for the subject shown is outstanding.

I love that Chris is showcasing parts of Japan that are less appealing on the surface and yet still have hidden charm. I’m sure the local economies appreciate it too

For all the shit Chris gives himself, and others do too sometimes, you need to give him credit for really setting himself apart from other content creators in Japan by doing this sort of thing.
Many props to you @abroadinjapan. Great work.

It only hit me just how much time has passed when you said Wakana Yokoyama was a former elementary student at the time of the disatster and now is a local guide. It's great to see the area slowly coming back to life you've really got to adimre the spirit of the locals.

We need more youtubers like Chris who actually help society in their own way.

JOURNEY ACROSS JAPAN CONTINUES
Historically this topic usually tanks the YouTube videos SO PLEASE give it a like guys! ‘Controversial’ subjects on here don’t often get shared on the platform.
Given we're traveling 2,000km across north Japan, there's no way we could miss the most talked about region in Tohoku along the way.
We revisit Fukushima's exclusion zone to see how life has changed since our last visit in 2019, from Ukedo elementary school to the town of Tomioka. Obvioulsy we only had one day for this one, but I'm glad with what we were able to see and the chance to meet Yokoyama san.
See you for the next episode tomorrow guys!
And for the previous Fukushima documentary (shot with a lot more time), check it out here! https://youtu.be/YDvKkG1FTbU?si=mKdbrKDQm_gxSAmT

Is there anything that Chris can't do? My god the sudden change of vibe from touring around less visited areas of Japan with a mix of sarcasm and comedy to a full on documentary highlighting the disastrous events that happened before and how locals are recovering is just astonishing, well done Chris! I'm very glad with how well you've mastered every aspect of content

For all the fun and jokes we get on the Abroad in Japan channel, it's always videos like this one that most remind me how incredibly good Chris and his team are at this. Talking to the locals and shining a light on the region while never failing to handle it all with the sensitivity and care that it needs. Another fantastic video and another reminder why the channel deserves every last bit of success it receives.

So glad Chris took the time out to make another video on Fukushima. Not only is it awesome to compare the video from 4 years ago and see how much Chris has grown as a filmmaker, but to see so many improvements to the living conditions there really is a beautiful thing. The only thing harder than the physical act of repairing something is changing the bad perception so I’m glad people like Chris Wakana and Daiju are working to change that

I feel like we don't appreciate enough the amount of work Chris does with every episode on Journey Across Japan, thanks Chris for bringing out the gems within Japan! Amazing work mate!

Abroad in Japan is one of the most calming, exciting and quality channels I have ever come across. and I've been here since 2012.

I was lucky enough to be able to visit the Fukushima Daiichi plant in person, and you absolutely nailed the atmosphere. Standing in the middle of a town whose people up and vanished, where despite nature being allowed to grow unchecked the seeds of community have only just begun to sprout up through the cracks again. And while towns like Namie may take decades fully recover, providing a small window into live in the exclusion zone goes a long way to change the stigma that still surrounds it.

I hardly tear up even in emotionally moving movies or touching films yet somehow this episode manages to make me well up. Great job Chris. Keep up the good work that you and your team does! -from a Canadian friend who moved to Osaka following some inspiration from some of your videos. Haven't gotten to buying your book yet but I sure plan to!

Chris is the type of guy to make a high-quality documentary about a serious topic and follow it with the silliest video you've ever watched. That's one of the reasons I fell in love with your channel. Keep up the good work!
