So Christmas is finally almost upon us, after what has felt like a seemingly never-ending year.

And as I was packing my bags to set off on a journey to see Natsuki and Joey for our KFC Christmas dinner this week, the postman turned up carrying half a dozen surprise packages, that'd travelled from around the world from folks here on Patreon!

Hell, even CD Projekt Red, the creators of Cyberpunk 2077 (who've had quite a bumpy few weeks!), generously sent me a special edition crate of the game, given the team watch the Abroad in Japan channel.

Join me as I crack open your amazing packages and discover what lies within!

Thank you so much to everyone who sent me Christmas gifts this year and apologies if I missed anything in this video. There were a lot of incredible things to work my way through!

NOTE: If you're wondering HOW these boxes found their way to me - or where the address is - I don't promote it publicly these days, unless specially requested on Patreon, as the PO Box address is Tokyo Creative's office in Tokyo and while they generously forward on mail, we can't allow them to get overwhelmed with too many packages. (Though of course, we're willing to make an exception at Christmas, as I like presents).

ALSO the Live show with Natsuki and Joey is scheduled to take place tomorrow (22nd Dec), and I'll be posting links to it across social media and here on Patreon later tomorrow, so keep an eye out! It should be a lot of fun and hopefully we can spread some festive cheer in between opening presents, eating Christmas KFC and incinerating Natsuki's mouth with various spicy goods.

I hope to see you then, but for now enjoy the video and the incredible gifts within!
Chris

Merry Chris-mas! I second your decision to put Cyperpunk on hold until you can get your PS5, especially if you don't already have a decent gaming PC. You can use that PS4 copy of the game to play it on PS5. But wait until they release the PS5 patch that optimises it for next-gen hardware! I'm having a blast with the game on PC despite its bugs, and I hope you get to enjoy it as well in 2021.

We believe and we will always support you, best x-mas Chris :)

Operation Chris-tmas was stressful this year, but we managed to get it done. Credit goes to Alev for helping deal with Japan Post

A big thank you Onux for all the incredible presents! Alev did a masterful job handling the chaotic nightmare that was Japan's postal service, haha.

Merry Christmas Chris! πŸ˜„πŸŽ„β­οΈ I can’t travel home to see my family this year either so I know the feels 😞 but thanks to you, Pete, Ryotaro, Natsuki & the whole team for bringing us an amazing year of content despite the struggles! You’ve brought so much joy to people across the world during a difficult year and deserve all the Christmas Joy for yourself now! πŸ˜„ Have a good one! 🍻✨ From the Gold Coast, Australia πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί

Great way to end the year with the AIJ crewπŸ‘β›©πŸ˜€πŸ˜€. Thank you for putting this together. I enjoyed your work and the participation of the crewπŸƒπŸ˜€πŸƒπŸ‘ in all episodes through the year. I especially enjoyed being on the journey to places I otherwise would not have gone. You helped to increase my fascination and familiarity of Japan. Thank youπŸ‘ŠπŸ₯ΎπŸŽ“πŸŽ’πŸ§³πŸ₯‡πŸ† 頑弡って、 ζ₯½γ—γΏγ«γ—γ¦γ„γΎγ™πŸŽ­

don’t feel sad, Chris - a lot of us in β€˜Murica are staying in our own lonesome plague houses this year! 2021 CANNOT COME SOON ENOUGH πŸ’€

Oh wow the Texas gifts are great. Those are from Bucee's which is a MASSIVE awesome fancy rest stop/gas station that has quite the cult following. There must be Youtube videos of them. As far as the book, it is right about the weather. It is in the upper 70's here in Dallas today. Merry Christmas to everyone.

Wow those phrases really did sound better with a southern accent πŸ˜‚

Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to seeing the livestream with the squad πŸ˜‰ . Your KFC meal plans have inspired me to do the same. While it’s not the same menu as Japanese KFC, it’s great comfort food. Who doesn’t love fried chicken? Merry Christmas and best wishes to all in the upcoming new year πŸŽ„πŸ₯³

Yes! Loved the Texas representation! Hope to see natsuki try some!

The CD Projekt Red box was amazing if not a just a little bit ironic, so much effort went into it clearly, just like Cyberpunk 2077 itself, it really is a shame that the end product wasn’t quite ready. Never mind eh? Who needs a simulation of bleak futuristic dystopian cityscape when you can easily try and goad some robotic dinosaurs at the Robotel into attacking you?

CD Projekt Red seem to have watched your content more than develop their own game.

I'm at the point in the podcast where you keep talking about this amazing package from Project CD Red and I'm so glad to have finally had the chance to see it! It was much cooler than I imagined! As someone who loved the game on PC, I wish I was a Youtuber so I could get the same amazing box!
