Now this is a trip down memory lane. I was born in Shinjuku in 2003. Moved to the states in 2008, but visited Japan frequently in the summer (like ten times haha) This was the Japan I grew up in right before I moved, the Japan that I was a true 'local' to haha. Some of my first memories were here: Ultraman Mebius, Kamen Rider Den-O, Yes! PreCure 5. It does make me sad that I won't ever experience this era of Japan again, but at least there's a whole lot of videos recorded that I can watch on RU-vid!!
Hello! I love your shots, they're amazing. Would you allow me to use some clips for a video art piece I filmed? Of course, I'll give you credit. I'm a film student in Mexico. Best regards.
This video is up there with Tom and Jerry's mouse in Manhattan for me, it has the vibe cities always had; well that's how i always imagined them to be. Anyways, i was a 9 year old then and a disappointment now but still i wish i could see the world the same way as i used to, the same way you saw through your lens. Just saw that the music is your original score, I don't know much about music but it reminded me of vangelis and brian eno for some reason, it's really lovely and accompanies the video well, I already have 3000+ movies on my watchlist but I'll try to squeeze "the quiet" into it.
Thanks for this comment! If you look you can still find old Tokyo, it is one of my great passions. I just uploaded another Tokyo video, this one from 2010: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-M1BbglURQT4.htmlsi=2gKsksEqjpt7cMwB. All the best.
I’d say this is too recent to get any old vibes from it and I’d stand by it. But in 2004 I would have said 1989 is ancient. When you live through it it never seems that long ago.
Part of the older japanese video algorithm trend and i love it! Nice work man. Tbh i just love coming across older youtube videos in general, super fun throwbacks 👏🇯🇵💜
@@piano4film Yes i acknowledge it is taken in 2009 but perhaps we could get actual tokyo residents who happened to live there and point out stuffs that used to be there
i moved to japan and lived in 2007-2013, since there i never comeback to japan due to my jobs. Lucky for me it was over and i be able to go back next month. Seeing this really bring tears to my eyes, Tokyo was the place that i has so many beautiful memory with my friends, brother and people around there. My family still there and Tokyo still keeping it beauty, but the feeling wont be the same anymore, i just really miss the old simple time so much.
Thanks so much for this lovely comment! I really value your impressions. I hope you have a good reunion when you return. I know what you mean about simpler times, I hope we can recapture that one day.
cool! do you bring a tripod with u everywhere you go in your travels? Hope you can take a video shot of the big bridge in tokyo witht he lights on hehehe. thanks for sharing :)
