MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

I hope Santa Claus brings you all the toys and chocolate you desire tonight - I'll shortly be heading to bed in state of childlike excitement awaiting his arrival.

In today's Patreon vlog, I discuss Natsuki: The Movie and where things are, as well as share a clip from the film - where Natsuki takes the decision to go to Europe and draws up his incredible plan.

For now, I'll let the vlog do the talking and regarding the movie, we should finally have the release date during this week once and for all!

Have a great Christmas everyone and let us know what you're hoping Santa will bring you tomorrow!

(I won't lie, I've already opened two presents - a swanky belt and a nice new pair of shoes).

Merry Christmas!!!

Great preview. When we see Natsuki in your videos he mostly speaks English. I like that he’s speaking Japanese here. Almost a different person.

Haha yeah he seems slightly less crazy. We made sure he spoke a lot more Japanese than usual while shooting.

Nice bucket list.

"Mona Lisa isn't smiling. But I'll make her smile." If anyone can do it, it's Natsuki.

Looks great, man. That clip had a different vibe to it than what I thought it was going to have, in a good way.

Have a good Chrismas 😏 - Looking forward to a 2018 full of more videos and Natsuki The Movie.

I often say Sweden and Japan are pretty similar in many ways, that is true and not true when it comes to Christmas. We had a celibration going on already when Christianity found its way to us, but no Father Christmas and all that jazz, so they just went with it keept some and threw away some, and so even Swedish people get to celibrate Christmas today. But were not saying Merry Christmas here, were saying "God Jul". And that is ofc what i wish you all, a very God Jul!

I think meetng Sid Vicious is one for the 死ぬ後で list, but if anyone can do it...

Looking forward to seeing him meeting Sid Vicious!

Merry Christmas, Chris and co - and of course all the rest of you Abroad in Japan fans. We were in Japan this time last year on honeymoon - where did the year go, I'm sure everyone's asking, the same as we are... onto 2018 and more Abroad goodies - and Natsuki The Movie!

Merry Christmas! I wanted some Coinks, but there wasn't any left in August... they told us that some British Guy bought every last one of them last Christmas... :) Boldog Karácsonyt! -from Hungary

Merry Christmas stoked for seeing the movie. I know you've worked hard on it. Good luck!

Barbara Smith

I am so stoked to see the movie, and thank you Chris for working so hard on it!! Merry Christmas to you as well!

I like that you are somewhat living out your initial goal as a filmmaker despite all the twists and turns you've gone through. I'm in a similar state right now; I wanted to become an English teacher and had to shift around to engineering and other fields before I discovered the JET programme and am now settling in to a Linguistics degree.

I'm more excited for Natsuki the movie, than I am for Christmas.

Really looking forward to the movie, hope your Christmas is as special as you can make it. Without KFC, ideally.

Really looking forward to the movie! I'm glad we help you get this going :) And you have to post when ever Natsuki has gigs ! I think any one here and on FB/YouTube would go and cheer him on!

Merry Christmas! Enjoy the Japanese Christmas Cake. 🍰

Laura Beaumont

Merry Christmas guys!! I agree with Hazel: Christmas isn’t as exciting as waiting for the Natsuki movie. Thanks for the update! Hope you all have a great week! 😃 ✌️

Nope

Can we meet Natsuki's goal in reverse? If we visit Japan, can fans come see him?

Merry Christmas!! It always makes me sad when my japanese co-workers and friends are always like, "yeah I'm going to take a loooooooong 3 day vacation". Not exactly considered long in gaijin books, but such is reality in Japan.

Yeah.... and Europeans think Americans take short holidays. I told a friend from the UK I was taking a week and half trip to Tokyo and he said, "that's all?"

So excited to see it!!!

Hey Chris! Me and my friend are in Tokyo, having traveled from Sweden, and love your and Natsuki's work! We'd love to come see the concert if it's not too much trouble :D A bit last minute, I guess, but would have been fun none the less!

It's ok, I got distracted by the Domino's pizza brochure instead of looking at your 'fattening' face. 😂

Natsuki the movie looks REALLY interresting. Keep up the good work. Question for you: It didn't really look like it, but style-wise, are you trying to make it look like "Japan: a story of love and hate" or "The great happiness place"? You reccomended the first one, so i am curious as to how much you think it inspired you in natsuki the movie. Keep up the good work Chris, what you have already shown has already been above expectations. Liam

I always think about that documentary but I don't think this is going to be as fly-on-a-wall as a Story of Love and Hate. Sean (the filmmaker) spent months filming with Naoki for that, just sitting in their tiny apartment haha. But its definitely influenced the style in some ways.

The cutaway clips are really great quality as is the clip at the end...the next Martin Scorsese you might say! Genuinely quite excited to see where you go in my hometown Brighton.

Hello Chris, slightly off topic post here. We use Kodi to access interesting tv not available in the US. Saw a title Cat Nation about cats in Japan and you were the host?! It's a 52 min long feature. Story? Hope your KFC was wonderful.

ok, phew, glad I'm not the only one who noticed the pizza coupons in the background. Been thinking of ordering a pizza tonight...

Hey Chris, I was wondering why none of your new videos are being uploaded in 4K since you got your new camera.

Anonymous

Really never understood why people write the paintings title as 'Mona Lisa' when it is is 'Monna Lisa'. Her hair is actualy ginger or red if you prefer. It is a shame it has degraded so much that its true beauty does not shine through with all the caked on dirt. Brighton has no fresh cod or any other except sea Bass and has not for years.

Because you have to download 4K and 99% of people will not because of data usage.

I actually cant wait for the movie!

Isn’t Sid Vicious dead?

Looking forward to watching Life is Balloons. We've turned our neighbors onto your channel and they enjoy all your vids as well. We'll have a viewing party! While giving the spotlight to Natsuki is a great choice we just want to say: It's really awesome that you have taken your love and study of film and gone this route. Maybe a subject for a future podcast: what movies do you like? Which ones will you watch over and over and find more to appreciate? A director/writer you will always watch, no matter what reviews say?
