9 Years of Abroad in Japan Celebrated with the NEW STUDIO!

9 years ago this week, the first ever Abroad in Japan video was released 🥳

To my amazement, almost 100 people watched it and my world was changed forever.  
Today all these years later, I'm delighted to celebrate this anniversary by announcing that I've just received the keys to what will become a dedicated studio space for shooting future videos!   

A HUGE thank you guys for being a part of this absurd journey.

And BEFORE I produce the inevitable studio tour video for Abroad in Japan, this week I'll be giving you a whirlwind first-look here on Patreon of the brand new studio in an exclusive episode, so keep an eye out!

AND AT LAST tomorrow, Natsuki's Treasure Island episode will finally be released.
A 25 minute adventure, set over 48 hours on a remote island, where Natsuki and I went in search of the long lost Wako pirate treasure. It was a journey filled with spiders, forgotten shrines and stunning beaches.

In case you missed the trailer for this many months ago, refresh your memories:
Watch:https://youtu.be/NipYrippvVU

As to why I've delayed it so long, originally this episode was supposed to be a quick, fun adventure for the second channel. But the more I edited it and the more I shared it with people, the more they said it needed to go on the main channel.

To be honest it feels like an Abroad in Japan episode from 2015, and while I initially thought that may be a bad thing, that's perhaps what made it so chaotic and fun.

So pirates tomorrow, studio tour thereafter and later this week, I'll show you the horrors of what Connor (CDawgVA) and I got up to in Shikoku....

Enjoy your Saturday guys!
Chris

Congratulations, Chris! Greetings from Russia!

Chris would like to send you some items from the UK that are classed as from Japan. Where can I send items? Would be interested to know if it stacks up to the real thing.

Very nice!

So very happy for you Chris! It warms my heart to see your dreams begin to come to fruition. Enjoy the success and the blessing of the new studio. I look forward to the great movies/videos/documentaries that will surely begin to flow out of your new space 👍

So thank you for all the wonderful videos you've made over the years Chris!

Happy 9 years! 🙌 I’ve been watching for about 7-8 years and your channel has become my favorite. So many good moments over the years. Looking forward to checking out the new studio! Wondering what kind of antics you guys will get up to with that. Natsuki’s Pirate Island sounds amazing, can’t wait! Hope he got a new pair of pirate pants. 😆

You could easily fit a lot of fried chicken in the studio.

rafa UGM

Congrats on 9 years! Studio looks amazing, can’t wait to see what’s next! 🥳🎉

Exciting times, Chris! Can't wait for the videos you have in store for us the coming weeks! And also can't wait on what you'll do with the studio! Thanks for the years of content, adventures and moments of insight. Very, ver appreciated!

Ramon

Here's to 9 legendary years! 🥳 That studio space looks amazing! Puts my tiny apartment to shame. 🤣 I am definitely a fan of the 2015 style of video. Can't wait to see Natsuki's island adventure!

Argus9 (Jonathan)

Congrats on the studio man! While I love all your videos, both new and old, I am still amazed at how the quality has changed over the years. You never fail to impress me and a million others! Keep it up my dude!

William Clark

Congratulations, Chris! 🎉🎉 Can't wait to see what cool stuff you'll get up to in the new studio! But I think you need some fanart to fill those empty walls. (You might want to peek on what we're planning on Discord.)

Absurd In Japan has a nice ring to it! Congrats on the 9 year anniversary, really enjoyed your videos setting me and my wife up for our trip to Japan in 2018. And for introducing Natsuki to the world!

Wow 9 years, that is indeed a long time and an occasion to celebrate. Claiming I've followed you since the start would be a long shot, but for the years I have done so you've given me a huge amount of entertainment. ...now lets get this covid crap over so I can get a chance to plan my 15th trip to Japan and explore some of the plans you have inspired me through your videos.

Congratulations on 9 years to you and the team!! Has been great seeing your journey! Keep doing what you're doing, and look after yourself! Hopefully coming to Japan in February (borders depending, am from the UK myself), so if you happen to be around Tokyo, would be great to have a beer or 2 with you! :D
