Day in My Life | Living in Japan 

**Notification Squad! WHAT do you eat for breakfast? And WHAT YOUR FAVORIT COLOR?!** After 5 years I finally caved in and made a “Day in my life video”; from waking up and having a shower, to riding a bullet train and being on Japanese TV. Discover my greatest weakness, what I eat for breakfast every morning, and how awkward and bizarre Japanese award shows are. And most importantly, let's unravel WHAT'S IN THE BOX.

Honestly, what a bro move getting your friend on stage as your interpreter

you can now say this is an award winning show

we all gonna ignore the fact that this dude legit managed to get his friend up on national telly for no reason? 10/10

“What your mum think?” “Very Crazy” Japanese stare bafflingly. Translator- “Clazy!” “Ahhhhhhh”

Make a video about North Korea --> get demonetised by RU-vid --> receive an award for it on live Tokyo TV. What a story of redemption.

Japan: "Oh, god bless this man who made an educational, journalistic, real-time report about our missile alert system to educate the masses on how to be safe in our wonderful country!" Chris's actual video: "Bloody hell, if that fucking missile alert goes off one more time, im fighting north Korea myself...….."

That dry mouth issue was hilarious when you pointed that out. I didn't actually notice it the first time.

Train leaves 20 seconds early in japan: NOOOIOOOOO. Here in America: sorry, your train has been delayed another hour, for the 6th time, sorry for the inconvenience

Ryatoro looks like a bond villain with that turtleneck and coat

This is one of the most British things I've seen. The man wins an award which is highly respected by millions of people. Awarded for helping to inform the world of a significant political issue that Japan has to deal with in this day and age. Chalks it up as an above average day, includes footage of him fumbling about an iron and cusses himself out constantly. Top bloke.

Idk why I laughed so freaking hard when Chris stepped on the stage. His facial expression looks like he's a kid got caught by a teacher 🤣

"Japanese rail company apologises after train leaves 20 seconds early" Me : living in Germany where you are happy if your train even arrives that day

"The North Korean missile really shocked me" *Audience weeps and applauds*

I appreciate the way you dodged the invisible attacking sparrow as you walked onto the stage.

Him: makes video Japan: *sees video* Him: im going back to sleep even tho theres a warning. Japan: Yes, we need him!

Why didn't you just have the 'hotel' do the ironing? Too expensive? In any case, you did well. Thought Ryotaro on stage was superfluous 'cause your Japanese is more than adequate . . .

Chris: “lots of important people could be watching this. You, you could be an important person.” Me, sitting in my pyjamas with a bowl of ice cream: “ehh, I think you’re safe.”

Anticipating that this video is 21 minutes of you eating biscuits

I know this video is 2 years old, but it's one of the most entertaining vlogs I've ever seen. You're personality and sense of humor are incredible.

As I was watching this I was trying to come up with the words to say to you about how charismatic you come across and how much it makes me enjoy your videos. Without sounding creepy. Then you said that you enjoy the creative and editing aspect of RU-vid and only do the presenting because you had no one else to do it. You are a fantastic editor and an equally fantastic presenter. You come across down to earth and funny which is very charismatic. I think you do a great job keep it up. Not everyone becomes successful in RU-vid and I think that’s partly down to their personality. It takes somebody with a very particular personality and charismatic level to excel which you definitely have

*Insults J-alert *Gets award*

How the FUCK could the same person write such a brilliant life-quote, then write "What Your Favorit Color"?

As a person studying Japanese myself, Chris is the first person I've seen studying Japanese who is left handed. Its something minor but I think its inspiring as I'm left handed myself.

Chris talking about hating Tokyo station brought back memories of last year, my first time abroad alone, and first time in Japan. I entered Tokyo station from a train via Narita and spent half an hour trying to reach outside, I had a anxiety attack, broke down in tears, the works, left and never went back my entire 3 week stay😅

This video was sick mate, one of my favorit

Been with your channel for 3 years. I enjoy every video, God bless you Chris Broad.

日本の勉強が楽しいって言ってくれると日本人としてすごく嬉しい！ As a Japanese, I'm really happy to hear that studying Japan is fun!😊 Sorry for my poor English😢

japan :"please dont use phones,talk loudly or be a nuisance to others on the train" Chris:*pulls out camera and starts vlogging*

I actually really enjoyed this. It was quite relaxing (except for when you were going on stage; I was nervous for you). I really wanted to teach you how to use the iron. Even though I can’t read Japanese, I’m pretty confident I could. Lol Thanks for sharing this and exposing your daily life to us. It was a fun journey. Oh, and don’t worry. I can assure you, I’m DEFINITELY not an important person. Haha

Next time you need to iron something and you can't figure out the iron (I would be confused too), just run/have a hot shower and leave the shirt hanging up in the bathroom. The steam will help get rid of the wrinkles.

This comment section is gold, I would like to thank you all for that.

His friend has a really nice voice.

Ryotaro is such a dapper man, he surely must know how to iron. You couldn't persuade him to help you with that?

Train leaves 20 seconds early... head of the japanese railway firm commits sepuku

Your humour is getting me through lockdown, absolute genius

Chris, I know you've never heard this before, but you're actually quite handsome.

you're left handed? *unsubscribed*

Japan: Drinking in public: Meh. Train leaving 20 seconds early: TRIGGERED.

"Yeeeeeeeeeea! Canadian culture!" I snorted at that. It shouldn't be particularly funny being Canadian, but I love your dry-wit.

There is just one thing I never quite understand: His videos are clearly well devised, edited into a product which is not only compact, objective and balanced but also extremely fresh, smooth and with wonderful chosen moments of comedy that never feel forced or unecessary. Just look at that introduction for a moment, feel how the music feets the way how the sad milk dropping spoon seats in front of our eyes, being the object of focus, before he moves it down in despair and finally eats it. His content is full of consciously designed ideas, of care for quality and detail, a consistent interest in adding layers of entertainment that most of us do not even catch, but greatly influence the product. What am I trying to say with all this? Why was I "angry" on the first place? I simply cannot follow his view when he says that he is actually not good at anything. I have seen him refering to this at least two times in some other videos, and I could guess that he is still amazed by his amount of success, but camon.... I have not seen such refined videos on youtube for....maybe as long as I have been watching youtube. So yeh, screw you Chris for not knowing how great your channel is, and if you are reading this, and still have the doubts upon your qualities, I hope to have left some idea of why people enjoy this so much. To all, a wonderful whatever you are having.

10/10 WOULD WATCH AGAIN

LOL! "I'm better than this" "I didn't know that"

15:08 - Wait! So no one is going to talk about the fact they use Mission Impossible Theme for his introduction? Ok! well I am gonna remember that 😂😂😂

Me: He's writing down Japanese text, Sister: *He is a LEFTIE-*

My life in Japan: *playing nintendo switch and drinking coffee in the train.*

want to hear you speak japanese some time... do a whole episode in japanese!!! ( with subtitles )

Chris learns how to iron - now that's an anime I would watch

The IIII, instead of IV, on the clock there gave me the shivers

So you heard the J alert go off indicating a possible north korean air strike, went back to sleep and they decided to give you an award for it?!

Chris: "Here's your coffee, your lordship." Ryotaro: "Thank you." Didn't skip a beat, did he? Bahahaha!!

You're a better presenter than you think, Chris. It's one of the many reasons I watch your channel - a funny, friendly style, with lot's of self-deprecation and irony. Keep up the fantastic work.

I love the fact that he is being humble and acting like how any other person would, in this luxury hotel, talking about how expensive the stuff is, not bragging about it, feeling awkward.. makes it so much more of a genuine experience to be had from his viewpoint. He is not being a pretentious jerk like most other bloggers. But i cant forgive you drinking coffee over tea.. such a disgrace

As a Canadian I approve of the use of maple syrup in your breakfast, regardless of said breakfast.

This 20+ min episode was fucking fantastic. Someone give this man a series.

He’s got such good humour

8:15 did anyone else see the stray suitcase that was just rolling across the floor?

turns out a day in japan is only 19mins long

This is a crazy plot twist. I didn't know Ryotaro could speak Japanese.

I love the bond you've both made. Wonderful thing. Both kicking ass and taking eachother along.

Damn this editing is fantastic. Definitely wasn’t expecting this to be one of my favorit videos on the channel. Above average job, well done.

“Say something profound” *_”Today is the day.”_*

12:48 oh, you almost got demonetized there

Whistling "stand by me" . Love it. I like your style.

I can say for sure that this is the only kind of vlogs I’d watch for hours on end because just the way you talk and how you put everything together is so captivating so yea to sum it up, I really like your vlogging and channel in general~!

As a Canadian... I approve of the Maple Syrup drenched oatmeal.

Eggs sausages bacons and omelettes are some of the healthiest breakfasts, much healthier and nutritious than oatmeal and syrup! Combine that protein with a workout routine and you’re good to go 👍🏻

It's crazy how clean everything is.

Shots fired at the vloggers part 2 huh :p

Chris should've featured on RU-vid Rewind. So many videos of his got to trending, and the North Korean missile vid made it to international news! But of course he doesn't make low effort comedy vids with half naked chicks on Insta, nor is he a blonde teen, so how could he be on Rewind.

When he’s panning around the room then suddenly... “Aaaaand me..” Made me crack up 😂

"dont eat chocolates before bed" me watching while eating chocolate at 11pm

Oh my gosh it makes so much sense now, why Ryotaro takes you to all these extravagant places and shows you the ropes in Japan! He's actually your long lost brother and you just never knew. Only Ryotaro knows and he's taken charge of you as you traverse abroad.

Below an average day edition, please!!!

It’s true that your effort in making your videos do comes out as quite artistic and creative as much as possible. Most importantly, your kind of humour and way of explaining things even as simple as a day in your life is also intriguing. I never get bored.

This has quickly become one of my favorite channels on RU-vid; I love the content.

“If you don’t win you’re nothing”

the clock scene overlay was magnifico

Discovered your channel a week ago, put videos in oldest first setting. You sir are a gem. ❤️

I know this video is old but here is a good tip, use protein in breakfast, it keeps you full for the day. I lost 6 and a half stone in 2 years by ensuring I had protein in my breakfast and avoiding sugar in things like granola, which isn't healthy, it usually has more sugar than coco pops

Sick video mate

"Above average day edition" Perfect. :3

The inspiring oven glove ending with WHAT YOUR FAVORIT COLOR is truly great

I love this video for how grounded it is.

Did anyone else tune in to see Chris sit around and eat biscuits all day and was utterly disappointed?

Continue to keep it real mate

It's 10 to 10, because your videos are 10/10. Keep up the great work! Love every video I stumbled upon.

Your channel really inspires me to do something bigger with my life. I hope someday I get to experience some of the things you do myself!

might be the single best youtube vlogger out there, funny as hell

After watching your videos and following your channel for a while I now thought to myself why am I even watching your videos... I just started watching a few videos and kept going without thinking about the content really. I think the main reason I watch your videos is because you're entertaining and you seem like a nice guy. You don't have to force yourself to be enthusiastic about things, just be yourself. Cheers. Hopefully you see my comment.

I love when you guys being together.

For real tho what does Rissotaro do? I'm almost buying into the international spy meme.

9:18 the sign says "furonto" which is just the english word "front" when said outloud, i love how so much Japanese is literally just english

21 Minutes. What is this? Christmas?

I do love the honesty in your videos 😊 I think that's what it is all about. Keep up the great work, Chris✌

i was wondering why you didnt accept the award speaking Japanese but it was nice to get your friend on stage too

My husband and I are watching you regularly!we love you! Your editing,humor and videos are amazing!we are planning to live in Japan as well!Right now we are in Singapore!maybe one day you make it here for a video:D 😍😍🙌🍬 would happy to guide you :)))

Dude, you're awesome, you're hilarious, you have such a good sense of humor, there's nothing to be self conscious about! Though I totally understand it - I'd be self conscious too - but you're legitimately awesome and funny. So don't worry too much about it! Loved the vid, and can't wait to see more.

All of his videos bring me so much joy. And then there's this one, that makes me realise just how truly envious I am of a man who doesn't need to know his way around an iron

OKAY BUT THE ENTRANCE YOU MADE ON STAGE, after walking through the door, THE LITTLE WAVE, WAS SOOOO ADORABLE DUDE 😂😭 I COULDN'T OH MY GOODNESS😭😂😂😂
