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 man...

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...

Been a long time since I last built a Sankei papercraft which was over 4 years ago after I got back from my first trip to Japan. Don't really feel like I have the patience for one of these any more since they literally take a whole day to put together but, I saw this and since I...

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...

Note: The location hunting wasn't done in order and this wasn't a full day dedicated to 5cm location hunting. You will see the local areas too. Photos are also cropped to match the way they're depicted in the Anime but if you click on them, you can see the uncropped photos. A Goo...

  The new hotel was quite far away from the city this time in Kamata (around 30 mins train from Tokyo) but, I chose it because it was very close to Shinagawa Station where the Narita Express stops to go to the airport....

Well, after a day's break of wandering around shops, it was back to touring the land of the rising sun. While I'm a big fan of Japanese games and Anime, I was also interested in Japan's culture thanks to all the TV programmes I grew up watching such as documentaries and travel programmes so I decided we should go visit a rural village while...

Ah yes, Ghibii Museum! This place is so busy you'll have to book 3 months in advance if you want a chance of getting in. Especially during the holiday seasons. It was either a JR train to Mitaka Station or a Keio train to Kichijoji. We chose Keio even though we had a JR Pass because it was faster by a 5 minutes or so. I read the route from Mitaka...
