Naive 17 year old Nagomi Wahira is excited to start her new job at Oinky Doink Cafe, Akihabara. Before long, she discovers there was a darker side to the maid cafe business where rivals violently disputing their turf. As the piggy themed cafe struggle pay off the "sweets money" t...

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 s...

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...

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 f...

Not such an early start today since I'm just walking around Tokyo to tour some more Shinkai movie spots; mix of Weathering with You/Tenki no Ko and Your Name. People sure finish their breakfast quickly, a lot of business people in suits. View feels pointless when you're doing tha...

Maru has been tasked to find a place known as "Heaven" and is escorted by his "big sis" Kiruko Takehaya in a world where the Great Disaster occurred a number of years ago. Kiruko herself was trying to trace old acquaintances too. As they discover new clues and meet other survivor...

Again, note the photos were taken casually during my trip so they aren't framed to match the titles featured here. They just happen to be featured in the title. Persona 5 is a great JRPG, a refined game since Atlus hit the gold mine with Persona 3. Great music, great artwork, gre...

So today was the day we fly back to UK but, we still had a morning free before heading off to the airport - well, whole afternoon really but didn't want to join the rush hour trains carrying luggage... These were the manned stations you have to go through instead of the regular gates if you want to use your JR Pass. Thing is, not all exits have...
