Mega Tokyo 2032. "Boomer", android robots named due to the boom they brought about in reviving the city after the Great Kanto Earthquake. Now many are going rogue across the city, causing chaos and destruction. As the AD Police struggle with the outbreaks four girls; Sylia Stingray a luxury lingerie shop owner, Priss a club...
Formerly known as "Lifetree Ueno", the hotel is easy to spot from Ueno Station as reviews say. You can see the L-shaped outline of the tall building from a distance made of offices on the lower floors while the upper 20+ floors are the hotel rooms. Following Google Maps it's around 10 minutes walk from the train station where youll...
Not much today going on today. Went out to get Keisei Skyline tickets then walked around Ueno Park while I waited for my penpal who decided to finally message back and meet up for the first time before I left Japan. Been here for almost 2 weeks but never been inside the park nearby, haha. Park was huge and had these illustrated lanterns...
Mysterious relics belonging to ancient civilisations are being uncovered around the world and organisations from various countries round the world including America and Russia are after their power, including the world's biggest weapons manufacturer, Trident. After discovering a message on a plate of unknown material...
Been wondering why the partitions on apartment balconies can be removed and I think I know why; access to fire emergency stairs along the side. If you ever wondered how dirty cash can be check out the white tissue I wrapped my coins because I had too much and wanted to separate some. Not pretty... Morning was laundry time for mesince...
Another clear day. Weather's been mostly great this trip just like last time. Only a day of rain so far. I decided to go out and grab the rare Figma Pokemon Red figure for my friend in the morning because one I spotted in Lashinban, Culture Zone was already gone despite the £200 price tag. Might be the last chance to grab the second one I...
Working out how much change I can dump into the top up machine. Always fun when you have too much even though most places accept card now or even just Google Pay. Don't know if the latter charges a fee too though. Shame the top-up machines only take so much change and no 1 or 10 yen coins so my wallet didn't get much lighter... Was a quiet...
Sunday, another busy morning for catering. Makes me wonder if Japanese people like staycations during weekends. Clear sunny day so you can see Mount Fuji from the hotel if your room was facing that way. Was planning to spend the day browsing around Akihabara. Still on the quest for a cheaper Figma Pokemon Red that doesn't cost £200, 5x...
Don't know if it's a trend but so many families out in the hotel dining area this morning and it's a Saturday. Usually it's very quiet at this hour. Ended up locking myself out because I forgot my key card so had to go to reception and it was peak checkout time too... Originally I was going to take the earliest local train to avoid the...
Decided to sit somewhere different today instead of facing Ueno Park, now same view as my room. Almost forgot my key card this morning ^^; Plan was to tour Weathering with You spots around Tabata and Shinjuku but very heavy rain. Weather Girl must be off today but might still manage to take photos and videos with umbrella in one hand. UK...
