James begins the final leg of his journey on the island of Shikoku, battling his fear of heights as he cycles 70km across the longest series of suspension bridges in the world. After demonstrating that even five episodes in he can't correctly identify the items in a Japanese hotel room, James is sent to try his hand at zen archery, a very formal process where actually firing the arrows seems a bit of an afterthought. Nonetheless, he works up enough of an appetite to make the region's famous Udon noodles, where his earlier haiku about them causing 'wind' turns out to be oddly prescient. In a spooky twist to their journey, James and Yujiro visit a deserted village whose deceased and departed inhabitants have been replaced by lifelike scarecrows. James meets his scarecrow doppelganger, ensuring part of his soul will remain forever on Shikoku.

James arrives by speedboat in Osaka, Japan's de facto second city and a port with a reputation for great nightlife and delicious street food. With his manhole-obsessed local guide Hacchan, he has a go at Japan's national (and slightly shady) pastime, Pachinko, a sort of pinball fruit machine. In a land where gambling is frowned upon, James discovers the tricks the Japanese use to get their hands on their winnings- and then promptly blows all his money on Osaka's famous octopus balls and Japan's infamously expensive Kobe beef. Osaka is also the centre of Japanese stand-up comedy, a genre notorious for getting lost in translation. Since he started his journey, James seems to have provoked great mirth from the locals, so he calls on his trusty Tokyo guide, Yujiro, for a dangerous comedy experiment. To see if comedy can travel, they'll perform translated British jokes to a notoriously hard-bitten Osakan comedy audience. After that bruising encounter, James is in need of some light relief,...
