Japanese New Year's Party and Osechi (新年会＋お節料理）

[Kaymio27]

What happened Annie? Are you on YouTube strike or just making another video? Don't leave your fans hanging! When you do get back, could you make a video about the area you live in or where you work or the makeup in japan?

[brotherannie]

@KeroKeroFFVII 1. My name in Japanese sounds like the word for older brother and 2. YOUTUBE has GATHERINGS? I want to go!

[drywallit43]

what happened to brotherannie did she turn into sisterannie or anutannie ? did she give up on vid's or did she just eat to much at new years and is hibernating until spring?

[unchiekun]

after eating all that food, i bet you became a big fan of unchiekun?

[supra8065]

[ChokladTant]

[unchiekun]

Wow, what a great experience, Reminded me of when I lived there, except, we had no easy access to great video and phones like we have now. Interesting concept of filming everything for the future. Great !!!!!! We lived so in the now back when...

[dashpash]

what is the most cost-effective way to make phonecalls back to the states and vise versa? Obviously skype is great if a time is already arranged or whatnot, but for phonecalls?

[MaikeruInJapan]

ALL.THAT.FOOD! :O Sure, I wouldn't be daring enough to eat all the seafood, but I can't believe that I was ever worried about Japanese food before I went on exchange to Kansai Gaidai! I can't think of a Japanese adjective to describe how good it can be because you know, oishiiiiii won't cut it haha... Awesome videos btw, it is great to see that you have returned to Japan! I still remember reading your blog before I went to Japan! Time flies when you are having fun, huh ;) Anyway, あけましておめでとう!! :D

[burnett159]

[Ninja112294]

[animeaddiccttt]

Annie-san happy new year!! I'm looking for your new videos!!

[betacarde]

happy new year! annie i find interesting all the meal for new year's domo arigato gozaimassu

[Adrienne0317]

Happy New Year!The food at the party looked sooo delish:)

[meowziklvr]

The thing that you ate at the end is not an orange. It's a tangerine. In some part of Asia when they say "orange" they actually mean tangerine.

[brotherannie]

@meowziklvr They're actually manderin oranges, "mikan" in Japanese, but that's basically a tangerine in my eyes anyways so fair enough. : )

[BabyduckDance10]

I love your shirt. Just saying. :D

[brotherannie]

@BabyduckDance10 Nanowrimo ftw.

[haubrion]

Please go to Ise shrine in some day. and try some foods like 赤福, 伊勢うどん, 手ごね寿司etc.

[NingaPuff]

Aren't the oranges just satsumas/mandarins? xD

[brotherannie]

@NingaPuff JUST? These are the fruits of the gods, dammit! But yeah, they're manderins.

[shylildude]

from far away that fruit kinda looks like a persimmon

[bunnysweet96]

U look different but in a good way [: wishing you happiness throughout this new year -3 :D

[Keilanify]

Hey is that a NanoWrimo shirt? :D

[brotherannie]

@Keilanify YES IT IS. I love how many people recognize my shirt.

[ChikoKnows]
