Summary

YouTube unexpectedly ended his six-hour stream despite a live server; he created a new event and lost half his viewers. He cycled through Dotonbori and America-Mura, struggled with toilets, cold, crowds, and unstable connectivity, then returned to his $13-a-night hotel. He planned SIM and clothing shopping, pursued Japanese and Korean contacts while hiding his work, and accidentally smoked a charger.

Insight

Novelty and dating energized him, but technical failures, illness, discomfort, and financial limits curtailed exploration.
