What $250 Buys You at a Japanese Hot Spring Inn

A stunning Japanese inn so large you get a self-driving cart, a sake brewery that encourages you to drink in a forest, and pork Tonkatsu so delicious it's criminal. We head off to the region of Gunma to celebrate to 2m subscribers, while Ryotaro spends the entire time trying to convince me, he's singlehandedly the architect behind any success the Abroad in Japan channel has ever had.

Our journey through Gunma took us to incredible breweries. You can find the full list of places we visited here!

NOTIFICATION SQUAD: Don't deny it. You wanted to see Ryotaro get run over by the patronisingly slow self-driving cart as much as I did. A MASSIVE thank you to you all for tuning into the Abroad in Japan channel - whether you're new here and are still wondering who the hell we are, or have been watching since the dawn of time (which is 2012). I never thought we'd make it this far and I'm hoping we can do something extra special in 2021! Bring on some serious "pork tactics." (Seriously though, how does Ryotaro invent these phrases?!).

Ryotaro is right, he's always in the videos where Chris visits the most luxurious places. It's like Ryotaro is some kind of sugar daddy.

Gotta love how Ryotaro said don't sit to the left of a left-handed person and then did it again at the next restaurant

[turinmiso]

Normal Ryotaro is funny.
Drunk Ryotaro is hilarious.

I love how Japanese people are so quiet and polite... then once you get to know them you get Ryotoro

Tune in for Abroad In A Pan: Pork Tactics Special 😂

[StormCrusher]

Let's just appreciate how far Chris has come from tasting edamame beans. He can even describe the taste of water.

chris wakes up on a self driving cart:
Ryotaro: Hey, you. You’re finally awake.

CONGRATS ON 2M (I'm just here because of Ryotaro)

[Eli-ofnn]

Ryotaro once again was trying to assassinate Chris, by making him drink copious amounts of Alcohol. Genius move Ryotaro.

[anarchangel]

Jokes aside, Ryotaro seems like a genuinely good friend. Congratulations Chris and hopefully I will get the chance to actually visit this year after my trip was cancelled last year.

[JasonVong]

I’d pay to see more videos of Chris and Ryotaro having a roasting session. Seriously, the comedic golds are all there.

Emperor Ryotaro walking out onto the balcony to gaze over his land as he serenades his people with a beautiful rendition of Don’t Cry For Me Argentina, was something I never knew I needed to see but will stay with me forever.

[Zaotar]

This channel has become so good ... Chris just keeps raising his standards and increasing the amount of work he puts into the videos. Really they are an absolute jewel of YouTube. Thanks for constantly putting out such great content for those of us who love Japan!

[CombativeMedic]

I've seen a lot from Japan, but a hotel so large it needs a self driving cart was not something I could have imagined. Keep surprising me, Japan!

[frederiklunden]

Ryotaro seems genuinely happy and excited about your achievement, it's honestly heartwarming to see.

[Vandoe]

I love how Ryotaro is like a golden retriever: Showering Chris with love and good food to show friendship
And Chris is like a cat: The more he's dismissive and acts like he doesn't care, the more he actually cares xD

[zachsos]

Just as Chris was saying about how people in Japan characters switch after drinking alcohol and reveal their deepest dark secret, we now finally know what Ryotaro thinks of Chris by referring to him as 'Chris Bored'

"Who wouldn't want to get drunk in a forest?"

No one of consequence.

[luffyskywalker]

Ryotaro before & after drinking is like a whole different person. Before he seems calm and composed. After he's singing Madonna, banging into doors and trying to jump to touch the ceiling.
