【YouTube】A walking tour of all the stations on the Keio Inokashira Line. Enjoy stations in Tokyo you've never been to before through video.
In a nutshell
- The video I was editing was a walking tour of the Keio Inokashira Line. I got the idea from the TV show "Sekai Fureai Machi Aruki."
- The concept is for people who have never been to Tokyo or are thinking of moving to Tokyo. With videos of all the stations, it might be nice to just have them playing in the background.
- I'm taking requests for lines and stations you'd like me to film in the comments of the video! Please subscribe to my channel too! Stay tuned for the next line.
A walking tour video of the Keio Inokashira Line
I was editing a video over the New Year holidays, but it took longer than I expected, so I was in a hurry.
I was struck by how much time and effort the YouTubers who are so successful now put into making their videos. Wow, you guys are amazing.
On Sunday, January 19th, I released a video of a walking tour of the 17 stations on the Keio Inokashira Line (Shibuya to Kichijoji).
I've received a lot of "Oh, why?" reactions from people who have already seen it, but it's fun to get a lot of interesting opinions from people who have criticized the video from their own various perspectives.
When you actually walk around all the stations on the Keio Inokashira Line, you discover a lot of things. In particular, I want you to see Shinsen and Kichijoji. The atmosphere is amazing.

Personally, I'm keenly aware of the difference between the future I want to create and the reality I'm able to create, so I want to keep updating.
I want to fill the information gap between my admiration for Tokyo and the reality of Tokyo
This video is made from the perspective of a local student who admired Tokyo.
High school students in rural areas admire universities in Tokyo and work hard every day to win the entrance exam war from all over the country. In fact, I myself was struggling to get out of Kumamoto and go to Tokyo.
However, I had no way of knowing anything about Tokyo. At best, I had an image of Tokyo Tower and the Shibuya scramble crossing.
Even with only fragmented information, young people from rural areas come to Tokyo with admiration.
But when it's time to actually live in Tokyo, you're at a loss as to what's in Tokyo and where you should live.
You end up signing a contract for a university dormitory based on the mail you received after passing the university entrance exam or the official university information, or you just decide where to live at a local real estate agent.
When you actually live there, you realize, "The station is far away, isn't it?"
If there were walking tour videos of Tokyo stations, you could choose a town with an atmosphere you like and live there. Personally, I wish I had known about Shimokitazawa sooner. I wanted to live here. I wanted to know about Village Vanguard.
Of course, I hope that people who are currently thinking of moving in Tokyo, people who are thinking of going on a date in Kichijoji, and people who just like walking tour videos (I'm a big fan of NHK's "Sekai Fureai Machi Aruki") will also enjoy it.

I'm currently receiving various requests related to walking tours from people who have seen them.
I want you to focus more on gourmet information. I want English subtitles so I can introduce it to people overseas. Isn't the map in the video too big?
I'm going to continue to try various videos, so please subscribe to the "Japan Walking Tour Channel"!
By the way, next time I'm thinking of the Minato Mirai Line as a fascinating Yokohama festival. If you see a lonely guy walking around silently with a camera in the cold weather, that's me.
I also feel that the Gonjitchi blog would be better conveyed if it were made into a radio show on YouTube, so I would be happy if you would continue to support me!
