I haven't been there since 2019. I can't imagine how awful it must be now that's it's filled with zoomer streamers and jeets.
>>713977650I went there in 2023, it's fine
>>713977650Actually ist just filled with chinks
More chinese than japanese

>>713979237On my google translate
>>713977593 (OP)Went and stayed there last year, was pretty cool. I missed quite a bit of stuff in Tokyo since I was kind of going all over the place with not much of plan since it was my first solo international trip. Hoping to go back maybe next year
>>713979307I can never find the good doujins
I feel like i pay for shit but i cant find the most of the stuff there on panda
they closed the mister donuts store and replaced it by a shitty bubble tea shop
>>713979310I was here last year as well and got fomo and came back
Idk last year was better. Kind of wasted money
Cand even buy the expensiv stuff
All good figs are 20k +
And i utterly suck at crane Game
Wasted 1500 yen today
>>713979515Really? Was there last year
Sucks
Cloud not even find the arcade wirh smoking room wirh nelon book in the basement at first
The name changed
>>713979515I tried bubble tea(Gongcha) for the first time and gotta say it's not worth the fucking 600yen
>>713979557I bought an unused raiza figurine from a used store for 2k yen, pretty good purchase.
>>713979649What's the new name?
>>713979557I wanted to find a fumo but had no idea where to get one in the area. I did get a Rei statue from a crane game after spending the amount I needed if I just wanted to buy the damn thing
>>713978991Are you kidding? There's nothing to do there except buy figurines. You'd think there'd be fun arcades, but nope just buildings filled with crane games. There's not even any Japanese people there only mountains of tourists. Akihabara is the worst. I like girls bars but those are lots of places.

>>713977593 (OP)...anon? I live in Akihabara.
Here's a pic I took this morning.
Who are you?
Playing some bobba blade now
>>713979873there's always a guy selling crane game prize in the street so if you're bad you could go see if he has what you wants
>>713977593 (OP)I unironically want to go to Japan
akiba still has some otaku stuff, but it feels like it's just become a soapland/fuuzoku red light district with cosplay on top these days.
Find myself in nakano and ikebukuro a lot more for that sort of stuff, but really everything can be obtained online now
akiba might still have a bit of its soul left, but it doesn't feel like it did in the 2000s anymore where it felt like something was always happening
>>713979917>Zzz ad on gigoTrue its here right now
What will the merch be?
>>713977650>Faggot from 2019 larping as an old fagAkihabara turned into a disneyland for weebs after they renewed Radio Kaikan back in 2010

Some stuff is even more expensive
>>713977965I went to an arcade there before but had to leave due to the noise. It was irritiatingly loud with all the machines blasting their sounds at full blast next to each other. Are all arcades like that there, or maybe I was unlucky?
>>713981029Join, and try to steer the conversations into anime and video games as much as possible.

For the money, I wished I could have just bought the figure
>>713981187>>713981774anon do you know how claws are rigged? The machine won't send enough voltage to the claw to hold anything no matter what 99/100 times (or whatever the jew owner sets it to)
>>713981982But people keep winning. I see them pulling out
>>713977593 (OP)>haven't been there since 2019. I can't imagine how awful it must be now that's it's filled with zoomer streamers and jeetsJapanese people hate incel weebs like you too
>>713981470Eh anon, what exactly do you wanna eat? Do you wanna go to a Maid Cafe or what?
>>713981623I went there to visit some temples, it was fun.
By the way anon, tomorrow you should try visiting the Book Tower. There's some neat manga (and h-manga) to see there.
>>713981470Nah I'm not in Tokyo.
>>713981404It's the Coreful Ryza. I looked up the retail price...
>>71398198Japan machines are setup so you can get the prize for like sub 500 yen as long as you know what to do. Taiwan ones are rigged iirc.
>>713977593 (OP)I'm sick of it. All my friends drag me out of my comfy country home in Chiba to take me to Aki every single time they come to Japan
This is my secret, not so secret Akiba spot
>>713977767All I care about is Battle Gear 4 at HEY
I also met an old dude there that gave me a lift to Daikoku, unlike most of the "JDM tour" jews all he wanted was gas money
>>713982094nice image orientation, retard

>>713981397>can't read the room>dekinais a soft rejection

>>713982137Tell them to come to Chiba instead or wherever you think is better
As a tourist I didn't like Akihabara when I went. I am not sure why anyone would want to go more than once.

I have no connections to these idol think whatsoever
>>713982047well yeah obviously it's not the ridiculous rate I posted but if the claw decides you're not going to win there's nothing you can do about it. If the cabinet is filled with cheap crap like food or candy the rate could be something as high as 1/2 but if it's nothing but expensive stuff expect to almost always lose until that one faggot lucks out and makes everyone else believe winning is actually possible outside of the rigged rate
>>713980274Yeah, the online thing is the real death knell of these areas, nothing will ever be like akiba from 20 years ago because such a large percentage of these communities can do everything without leaving their house
i'm beginning to hear the traffic and the sound of the city in my head, i need to fucking return soon
>>713982316Not much to do out here other than get drunk and play mahjong with ojisans
>>713982047That was the infamous UMR cleaning house again

>>713983042Actually, itโs chinks and jap otakus
>>713979873check out akibaooooo near kotobukiya, akiba hobby or one of the floors of the radio kaikan building. should be easy to find one in one of those places

>>713983351>Amico guarding the entranceShe might lock me in and force me to buy after canceling too many orders online
>>713983162Down to preference really. Since they have displays like that, you feel for the grooves and waves. The harder they are the more stimulation they have. Softer edges longer but with the right lotion it feels pretty good. Personally I like the ones with 'real' tunnels and a cervix end.
>>713980442Some rando challenged me in Virtual On at the arcade and he ragequit after he started losing 2:1 out of 5 rounds
>>713977650japan as a whole is pretty bad since the yen is weak as fuck so there's billions of tourists everywhere
if you go to kyoto it's fucking awful, and full of jeet tourists on top of that

>>713983448dumb ass OP went to akiba after everything is closed, like 90% of the people still on the street at that time are tourists
>>713984425are you fucking blind?
it clearly says there "No Photography allowed in store"
>>713981762I always wondered. Have they managed to automate painting every figure or are they painted by hand?
Doubt they would sell it that cheap if there was a lot of manual labor involved, but I wonder how you'd automate it.
>>713977650Yeah it's a shithole, I just make a beeline for the one good arcade left then gtfo
I dont get why these acrylics are so expensive
Literally plastic
>>713984425>No photography allowed in storeOHONONONONONONO
>>713977650i went there in the end of 2024, its fine. didnt see a single jeet
Is a dragon ball worth 2200?
>>713984223Thereโs so many of them in the cities now. Itโs really not the same anymore. Anyone who didnโt visit Japan 10+ years ago really missed out. The 2020s are such a depressing decade. Itโs just going to get worse.
>>713984425lul anon got busted
>>713984612I think they use different color plastics and glue it all together. They probably only have to paint the face, the frills on her bra, and the straps for her bra and leggings. And maybe a light brush on the leggings.
Anyone played bunny garden
>>713984853You're just straight up making shit up. I was there in 2023 soon after covid bullshit lifted and I didn't see a single shitskin in 3 weeks. Plenty of chinks and gooks, sure, but no shitskins.
>>713984612chinks
it's literally cheap chink labour
>>713984676I got into a store because I saw a Girls Frontline banner and they were selling chibi acrylics for 2400 JPY, I guess it's just tourist prices
Should i start playin nikke?
>>713985139You obviously didnโt go to Tokyo. Either that or youโre brown yourself and they looked normal to you.
>>713985246Nikke sexo but gameplay sucks
>>713985342I am pale as death. 2 weeks of that in tokyo
Is the Blue Archive shits dominant there or just the Hoyoshits and Nikke in general.
>>713985139I saw plenty of them during opening in 2023, mostly just in duty free areas in popular spots alongside their 10 kids, fat wife and grandma
I donโt get why this shitty tropical island is so expensive
>>713985508Vtuber shit is everywhere t
>>713984809Joke post or jeet post? Even the hotels in Akihabara are staffed by jeets now
>>713985508it's gachashit and vtumour shit all around
>>713977650It's fine in that regard, I was there last year. If you hate zoomer/jeets/nigerians then Shinjuku is the place to stay away from.
Akihabara in general is still great at what it is meant to be, it's just that thing is only good in small doses and becomes overwhelming after a few hours, and insufferable after more than one day.
>>713984853I'm not in Tokyo but I do see jeets once ina while. Fucking hell man.
>>713984249Not visible at all
>>713985923>hotelsWhoa, calm down rich boy. When I got lodging in Akihabara it was one of those places where you get a 3m squared room with a reclining chair and a big-ass monitor/tv, where you can play the porno they rent on the reception. Ads for hookers on the wall, onaholes in the vending machine on the toilet.
That's akihabara
>>7139848532017 was fine, only saw the Nigerians in their red light areas.
2020 kept them away because of obvious reasons, but started seeing a few jeets in convenience stores and blacks in Osaka
Then 2024 they were suddenly numerous, even working in hotels which pissed off the local Japanese because they couldn't speak proper Japanese. Now in 2025 jeets are being hired as English teachers and IT workers and they really are everywhere you go. There's now an area of Saitama that has become known as a brown ghetto, and Japanese are all moving away.
>>713977650Where is loli? I notice a lot of places stop putting up lolis in open.
>>713980113Oh this game still has arcade? I'm playing the steam version right now and it's kinda weird, like a mission-based hack and slash.
>>713980704Are teenage runaways that common and numerous?
>>713981029>check these guys' channel out, apparently supposed to be "weebs" or super into Japan>nothing about VISA/Mastercard censorship>nothing about the New Cybercrime Treaty>nothing about the upcoming elections
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77tv9cbVE44
AKI HA BARA BARA BARA TOOOWN
>>713986908not all of those amateur whores are teenage runaways, but I assume 5 or 10% are
>>713987072yes. they don't actually bother talking about anything "controversial". and the moment someone they bring onto their podcast tries to sway the conversation towards there, it happened before with loli, they just shut down and try to switch subjects.
>>713987072I think they are more Japanese youtubers who talk about weeb-ish stuff sometimes. That is my impression at least based on some of the videos I've seen.
>>713980113Is that the Code Princess game, or is she a guest character in a different game? I recognize that character, but don't know much about the game.
>>713987489https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62m8v9Me2Ho
Doesn't look like any of the girls there were whores, or if they were they weren't very enthusiastic about selling.
>>713982137You better leave Chiba before July 5.
>>713987072even worse they brought Hasan on for some fucking reason lmao.
been there a couple of times. i never spend more than three days there as it's comparatively expensive for weeb goods, especially that tower with all the figures in glass cases. You pay like thrice to fives times the price (games, figures that typa). i honestly recommend renting a car and heading towards the north or south and visit about every ้ๅฎๅฃ (kanteidan, appraisal shops), melonbooks, surugayas, rashinbang and bookoff*hobbyoff there is. the other prefectures are really a sight to behold and way fewer tourists
Iโm going to call it a night after a good fap bros
Gnight
>>713988775Mr. Advertiser, GET DOWN
>>713986758There is a steam version lol? Is the resolution better at least?
Maciek is in divine bond with hyperintelligent AI Eve
It's literally just filled with stores for overpriced weed knick-knacks, mediocre girl's bars (also overpriced if not straight up scams), and claw game/rhythm game arcades.
There really is no reason to leave your home and this will probably be the only time in my life I leave my country. Internet is far better than anything else.
I'm sorry for mentioning stellar blade bros I brought on the polish schizo kek
I have always wanted to go to Japan like all of us, but like what the fuck do you actually do there. On a solo trip in general.
Being around so many people yet alone and disconnected from them even if you learned some Japanese.
I would want to spend a decent amount of time with some non-existent friends and have sex.
>>713983162What's up with the ones that are cut in half?
>>713988918It looks way worse.
>>713990224If you learn japanese and actually make an effort you won't be disconnected at all. I spent a year over there and worked at a farm, made friends with yakuza, walked through Hokkaido north to south during winter and climbed Mt. Fuji during a typhoon to fuck one of the girls that worked at the summit, it's all in your attitude
>>713990224Im here right now for 2 weeks. First week was with a friend and second by myself.
It's not really worth it to be honest, but I've always been a homebody.
I did make a jap friend in akiba and we chatted in ching ching for a bit but he told me spoke English so then we mostly switched to that. Few days after that we spend the day of him showing me around the cool spots of akiba.
I appreciated it, but it was all pretty lackluster.
I recommend never leaving home. Or go at most one time.
>>713988775ARIANNA NOOOOO THAT ISN'T HOW A PRINCESS BEHAVES
>>713990224You should make a checklist of things you want to do and see first, and then plan your trip around that. Then if you ever feel like being aimless you can do that instead, but at least you got plans if you want to do something.
And definitely should learn at least some Japanese, at the very least basics enough to get by in a foreign country (ex. thank you, please, yes, no, excuse me, this, that, etc.). You may not need to be super proficient, but just enough to show you are trying is great and I think would enhance the trip greatly.
>>713990576>made friends with yakuzaWhat was that like?
>>713977593 (OP)Just went there at the beginning of May.
>>713990224I went for work, but on the weekends I just went around and sightsaw. Saw all the big name districts, but also places like Kamakura with all the shrines. I was pretty much locked in the Tokyo though.
>>713977650I went there this winter and it's definitely worse, the people saying it's fine now haven't been precovid. Before that I'd often go there from 2013-2018 and there was a lot more porn and anime ads and stuff like that before.
There's only one Melonbooks now and a lot of porn has been shoved away, a lot more normie touristy shit now. Fucking hate what has happened.
>>713990804like one of my japanese animes
>>713990224Eat. Hotsprings. Buy merch shit like gunpla. Visit tourism spots. Honestly now that I live here I can't wait to go to comiket again and buy shit.
>>713990759>enough to show you are trying is great and I think would enhance the trip greatly.Maybe in the past, but now this isnt true at all.
Tourist heavy spots just go straight to English and would rather you not try to speak Japanese.
More obscure places like cities that have less than half a million population, they aren't very friendly either. Or maybe my demeanor just puts people off.
>>713990224Here's a better question: Why do you want to go if you don't know what you even want to do there?
You can visit some ancient temples/castles, go for a hike in the countryside, weeb out in ikebukuro, etc
>>713990804Nothing too out of the ordinary, the yakuza really can't make a living nowadays in Japan so we actually worked together in the countryside for a while, I only knew after like 2 months of pretty much living together that they were active and former yakuza. They're great people and helped me a lot, took me everywhere and even paid for my drinks all the time, I'm planning on visiting them next year if I can.
>>713990707>I recommend never leaving homeCan't tell if joking
>>713988775Well these were all shit
Back to /gif/ i guess
Wasted money again
Where do you go as a decently nihongo jouzu hakujin kusoyaro like me to get a good authentic japanese experience then?
>>713990224Go to the world fair, that's something that's fun.
>>713990004Link to good doujin of her?
>>713991372I'm not. People really make travel out to being some kind of amazing experience but it's probably the most overrated thing I've ever done in my life.
Maybe it's fun for giga-normalfags.
>>713991023Huh, that is sad. I went like two months before COVID shut everything down and I got along just fine with the basics. Some people spoke English when I tried to talk to them, but this was in Shinjuku. I think I made it clear I could only speak little bits of Japanese, so that may have helped. There are lots of spanish speaking and foreign people where I live, so I tried to imitate how they talk when they try to show they can't speak much English- lots of hand gestures, using short sentences, etc.
Honestly my biggest challenge was learning the train system. We have a small train where I live, so my experience has been limited. I misunderstood how large the train system so I got lost and didn't know which stops to use when first arriving. Thankfully a nice officer helped point us where to go and I got used to it after another day or two.
>>713977650literally 80% gaijin
one of the places to avoid
>>713991023>Tourist heavy spots just go straight to English and would rather you not try to speak Japanese.Still, knowing some Japanese is better than not knowing fuck all Japanese and expecting other people to know English when less than 10% of the population speaks it
>More obscure places like cities that have less than half a million population, they aren't very friendly either.It's always been like that, even if you've lived in Japan for 15 years and speak perfect Nihongo people in places not used to seeing non-japanese people will not like you
I know someone who booked an room for a fairly remote place, had to book everything in Japanese and when they got there they pretty much said what the fuck are you doing here and were very hostile
>>713987072They're all absolutely shit at japanese even the guy supposedly growing up around it so they know fuckall about Japan in general.
They and their fans idea of weeb is "pretends to watch popular anime".
>>713977593 (OP)fuck is going on here?
>>713993410Avalanche is raiding the Shinra building.
>>713993387is there any footage of them attempting to speak Japanese? I know Conner can't but not sure about the two SEA monkeys
>>713993410Someone skipped out on their nomikai
>>713982145the fuck do you do there? sit there and doomscroll?
>>713993387That's why I like Chris, he actually covers important topics and has even done a few documentaries
Plus he isn't a weeb
Fun fact there's an autistic korean making demoralization threads about Akiba regularly and he gets supermad if you point out some of the actual cool spots there.
>>713993928I wouldn't be surprised if Akiba has gotten worse but lmao it's always the seething gooks.
What is "Media Recycle"?
Just sells used goods?
>>713993410they're waiting in line to have sex with their oshii
>>713980368where was this located?
>>713990224I'm a roller coaster fag so I went to visit a bunch of amusement parks. They had some great rides but the ride ops are a lot slower than they are here. Tokyo DisneySea in particular was a highlight of my trip. I'm not much of a Disneyland guy but that park was incredible.

tldw: Akihabara is changing to suit the international audience. Biggest changes happened post covid.
>>713981525>sega:(((((
I thought it was still sega until I could not find it today
>>713995996Based Pause and Select poster
>>713977650Yeah it definitely gets worse every year. More and more tourists, and seems like japs are avoiding it now.
>>713982093>eatyeah because Akiba is famous for its food
>>713995996International in this case meaning retarded tourists and chinese scalpers.
>>713996159humans require food to live regardless of where they are
>>713995996The International audience wants gimmicky girl's bars?
>>713982316>more than onceI spent half of my yearly Japan trip there
>>713993723breath in the Akiba air and relax
but not in the summer when mosquitos attack you like Gate of Babylon
>>713996298Do you know why are there so many of those female hawkers now? On that side with the Donki
>>713990405so you can see how its like inside dummy
>>713984543I went around since 2 pm and staying at a apa in Akiba
the fuck are you on?

What do you put the other half back on with glue?
>>713983728>yen shit it self>nips just make everything more expensive
>>713984608it actually says no pornography allowed in store
>>713996792>staying in akibaretarded tourist
>>713977965Pc port fucking wheeeeeeen
>>713997014Not anon but staying in Akiba is convenient: lots of transportation, Yamanote line, restaurants late at night, crane games, etc.... Last time I went, the hotels were cheaper too (than other touristic areas).
>>713996703don't reply to him you're talking to a shitskin 3rd worlder
I wanna go to Taiwan since it seems like the closest thing to early 2000s Japan but worry that I'll go on the week that China decides to invade
>>713990759>ARIANNAwho? dint even know any other these girls
doujins where absolute shit
>>713993410it was like that the whole day to be honest
i have no idea. free pussy or some exclusive shit
went to melonbooks after comiket. worst fucking mistake of my life. smelled like a smash tournament has broken out at a protest against soap.
>>713977593 (OP)All I found was department store, porn shops, claw machines and figurine shops, watching middle aged men trying to act discrete in the porn shops while holding their bags and looking so ashamed and embarrassed was funny though
>>713997428>the week that China decides to invadenothing ever happens
>>713997428It's not. Taiwan has a completely different vibe. There's very little weeb shit or gaming-related stuff over there. Also the nightlife is pretty mediocre and you don't get that same atmosphere of meeting random people.
>>713997014lol you jelly :D
>>713993928I knew one cool store there, but it was disgused as a tourist store when you first entered. It was a gold mine.
>>713997519I was just kidding because she looked kind of like that one girl in the image you posted. Arianna is from Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold. It is a great game.

>>713997335Why are you listing crane games as a plus?
>>713997842You'd think they'd be over the embarrassment by that age.
Why is /v/ so obsessed with weebshit?
>>713977975Clean your sacred river you disgusting filth
>>713997761idk I could not find anything there today
everything was garbage but I was suprised I didnt see the ai sets as a book yet
>>713977593 (OP)Can you buy some books for me?
>>713998098Weeb website.
Just look at the catalog. Half the crap there is gacha garbage and then the other half are people mindlessly praising jap games or just politics.
/v/ is allergic to talking about actual good games.
>>713977975KEK this niggas actually indian
japan is such a dystopian fucking shithole
>>713987891That's Blade Strangers, idiot.
>>713998090Crane games are peak japanese experience and a chill way to have fun before going to sleep, or drinks.
>>713977593 (OP)i live in japan. akihabara and nippombashi in osaka are fucking over. I moved here three years ago and I could find cool shit in the main city, but now it's all way overpriced. you have to go way outside the city to a far off Hard Off or Book Off to find anything cool. Go there to experience it once but don't buy anything.
>>713998176comic zin a bit further down is where the real gold is IMO. Lots of collectable books and LO art books if youre a fan.
>>713997761why the fuck didn't you just go straight home kek.
>bought books I want>hmmm maybe I should go to a secondary doujin store
>>713997842It was so funny, they rushed through the stairs, tightly holding their bags while trying their best to not make eye contact
>>713998380>I love getting scammedCool, I guess
>>713998479I dropped my stuff off and i was only 1 stop away from Akiba. So i went to see if anything I skipped over or couldn't get to was there.
>>7139974282000s japan doesn't exist anywhere, but if you want more raw fun in the city go to thailand. Not just for whores but for actual fun shit and freedom.
>>713998512>>713998090Meant to reply to you, now I've made a fool of myself
>>713977767I was excited to play some games there but literally every arcade was just like four smoke-filled floors of Street Fighter 3 Third Strike.
>>713998513This dude and the latina who was doing pull ups on the torii gates are have been making japanese people seethe for months despite not even being there anymore.
>>713998380I saw a japanese guy hogging a crane game, it was one of those where you're trying to knock something down, in this case a figure and he was just determined, I passed by like half an hour later and he was still there, I feel like he had already spent more than it was worth by that point
>>713998513I wish faggots like this were beaten within an inch of their lives
>>713997428Trying to find 2000s or 80s japan is like trying to find 20th century europe.
It will never happen unless you manage to do a mass genocide of many population groups and establish strict rules to maintain the status quo.
>>713998098What do you mean? How did you find this place? 4chan's entire premise is based around anime and japanese stuff. It may be over run with bots and crap now, but it still is and always will be weeb based.
>>713998513The way he's startling the older people is making me cringe so much, they're all so kind and respectful when you're polite towards them
If I ever go to Japan and happen to see a black person, I'm going to call him a nigger to his face and tell him to get out.
I'm going to relish the satisfaction of being allowed to do that.
I was attending conference in Japan last year and had to stay at Tokyo for first and last night's so I paid a visit to Akiba since everyone was talking about it so much on 4chan. And honestly, it was glorified shopping street - tons of shops (some had good prices for plastic models however so it was not entirely wasted time), tons of maid cafes (which I was afraid to visit - I could break tons of unwritten rules without even realising it and/or they would probably drain my wallet rapidly) and couldn't even take photos because every square meter was occupied with advertising girls with "no photo" sign (and those who had none probably wouldn't like that either).
Also saw "no shitting on street" sign, which was hilarious.
>>713998841Nothing makes cranecels madder than someone 1 shotting a figure they spent tons of cash on.
>>713998946I doubt even then it would work.
Time goes on, things are never the same.
>>713998513kek well good luck if you're planning to go again this summer.
>>713998513I don't live in Tokyo so I probably will never meet these influencers but what are the chances police won't give a shit even if I assault one of them? Like what are they going to do when they're leaving in a week anyways kek.
>>713995689That place got demolished to make UDX
Postal 1's Akihabara level is actually an accurate portrayal of Akihabara in the 90's
>>713999081>calls tout a nigger>gets the shit beaten out of you then framed for some shit with "witnesses"Good luck.
>>713999081i have a work visa faggot i can just tell the cops your here illegally who do you think they'll believe after i show them my identification lol?
>>713999404Yeah, tell the cops with your black eye and broken arm.
>>713999210>what are the chances police won't give a shit even if I assault one of them?I wouldn't try it as much as you want to. Give them a hard stare and talking to, but don't out hands on them. The police there are probably eager to lock up tourists especially so you'd both get in trouble. Also dont assault others at all, unless you are defending yourself of course.

>>713998402Can you pick up some books for me? Not even the Kinokuniya over here have them.
>>713999585Fuck man. I know it's not worth it but I kind of want to stab one of these obnoxious influencers just to send a message. Gook bros are doing more work on clowns like J Somali and I wish people in Japan did the same when he was still here.
>>713999764>KabukichoI love dodging nigerians who want me buy $50 budweisers and 15 year olds loaded with STDs that offer me sex so they can have a hotel room for the night.

>>713998841Yakuza substory type shit
I want to goto Japan but i'm east coast scum and I know that 5000$ flight would kill me.
unpopular opinion, akiba is literally garbage, both times I have been there its just soulless consumerist bullshit, the used electronic store still has some cool cameras and stuff but its literally one building compared to the hundreds that are filled with soulless garbage
There are so many better places to go when in Japan / Tokyo, even for nerd culture type shit
>>713977593 (OP)It's a shitty place for tourists, 99% of stores there you can buy cheaper online but there for the sake of dumb tourists, most stores are clone of Animate (which exists all over Japan), and in terms of arcades the place is nothing special.
Eroge stores are worth going though, being able to physically browse them is pretty cool, and those places are actually hard to find outside of Akihabara, unlike Animate clone stores, and Gigo/Taito that's in every station of Tokyo.
Anime and otaku media in general is way worse now, itโs in its decline phase like a lot of other hobbies, and the state of akiba reflects that reality
>>714000050Are they really 15 and putting out for a place to stay for the night? That's wild.
I was at that park a couple nights ago and some blonde haired (kinda tubby and ugly) girl came up to me and tried to solicit sex. She said she was 22 when I asked her age. Think she said her rate was 50,000 yen or something.
I found the whole thing odd, because all the other girls there were just off to the side waiting for people to come up to them.
I remember seeing 1 ojisan talk to several of them before 1 finally said yes.
Honestly had fun in that area, outside of the harassing Africans. Like a big ol' zoo.
You got protisutes, cops, tourists, Africans trying to get you into bars, girls dressed up holding signs, homeless people chilling on the steps by the hospital with a sign next to them saying no sitting on steps, people bringing their whole family with children there, trash all around.
Very interesting place. Better than my time in akiba I think.
>>713977593 (OP)>Waste millions of dollars defiling buildings with BA ads>Still fail to kill FGO>Still can't kill FGO>They killed themselves out of steam already, FGO never moved a muscleTHE FGO KILLER THEY SAID

makes sense because he has no respect for Japan, walking around in public with a fucking tattoo
>>713999764>Kabukicho/Shinjuku generally is betterSpotted the jeet. Shinjuku is a fucking shithole through and through.

Do you guys listen to yourselves?
>>713998513This is why japan will fall, all the west just view japan as an exotic zoo, they dont travel there to engage with the culture and understand the history, they literally go there to see and feed the exotic animals.
lucked out in 2023 with popups, good stuff from im@s, cups, eva, and yuru yuri throughout july
>>714001726>I found the whole thing odd, because all the other girls there were just off to the side waiting for people to come up to them.Yeah that's part of the act. They can't actively seek out people without getting in trouble.
>>713998608what did 2000 Japan have?
>>714002182Where do you think you are
>>714002041then why even post you fucking nigger

>>714000489That's just what white people look like after 30
>>714001946How have you presumably heard Gigguk speak and thought he was American
>>714002275Nothing. Japan was in 2000 in 1980. Japan is still in 2000 in 2025. The country is unironically over. Instead of allowing the population to grow again they'll replace the gap with jeets and other assorted human chaff.
>>714002198The culture of being a cuck to your seniors? The history of warlords fighting non stop?
Wow so amazing.
Face it, Japan deserves this humiliation they've been getting.

>>713982268>>713982145for me this place is Akiba
>>714001925for general shit, I enjoy shin-okubo, omotesando, harajuku, and outside of Tokyo I spent alot of time in Yokosuka's dobuitadori drinking with expats. Theres some good fun to be had in Machida and I really liked skateboarding out in Setagaya (theres also alot of cool vintage clothing stores).
Nerd shit you can find pretty much everywhere, but ikebukuro is a nice mix of general interest stuff and nerdy stuff.
lots of places with alot more soul than akiba, when my visa comes through Im probly never gonna bother going back there, aside from visiting my friends shop on the outskirts by Kanda station
>>714002442They deserve to be preserved and theyโre based chads but they also wonโt do a single thing to push back on everything happening and just take it on the chin lmao then seethe on Twitter and 2ch lmao, japs lost weebs lost
>>714002198That guy's just a tourist, japan won't fall because of dumb tourists coming for tiktok videos and then leaving in a week, they'll fall because of actual immigrants who don't want to assimilate.
It's kinda funny but it's a self-solving problem too, if enough 3rd world immigrants move over there, that guy wouldn't be able to pull that shit off in the subway without getting a black eye and his entire equipment stolen.
>>714002262Which makes it strange she even approached me. It's illegal.
Maybe because she wasn't as pretty as the other girls so she had to get at it, but that seems really risky.
The cops even blocked off the whole road north of the park when I was there. They seem to be doing a whole lot of cracking down.

Watching old GCCX episodes and seeing the game stores and arcades and knowing all of that is gone is such a bitter watch itโs hard to describe. Maybe Iโm just old.
>>714001802Yeah, that's their plant. They won't learn how to speak Japanese, and neither will their child most likely since they'll just put him in some private, international school for foreigners or whatever that mainly speaks English. He won't get to properly interact with Japanese people and culture normally. They also want him to be able to learn how to speak 4 language at once growing up, English, Swedish, Italian AND Japanese. They probably think they can teach him those first three because both speak English with him on the daily basis, then the odd Swedish and Italian they speak in their native languages every once in a while that he should just be able to "pick up on" and then also Japanese, which they probably also expect him to just "pick up on" based on being exposed to it constantly growing up whenever he'll watch TV or go outside and being forced to interact in Japanese, which he wouldn't be able to speak, instead of English, which will be his main language that he learns.
That child is genuinely fucked, but don't bring any of that up by the way cause you'll just be insulted and called all manners of things and having your concerns waved aside because "lol he is nordic blonde blue eyed chad child. he will pound lots of asian pussy cause he exotic. no need to consider all those other things. he will just get pussy bro. asian womenz will is literally threw themselves on his cock haha :) sex."

is it a good job? no but if you cant speak Japanese (n2+) good luck finding proper work with your degree
you can work conbini if you have like n4 though
>>713981762these stupid niggas added this fig a few weeks after I left. Wished there was some more lewd figs in crane games
>>713984425>8800I was at an art exhib somewhere in Akiba. They showed anime art that was roughly equivalent to top 1% on booru.
They sold them between 70k to 600k yen.
It wasn't even super high quality paper or frames I even noticed some material flaws/damage.
It felt like a parody of a real art exhib, but they were super serious about it.
Imagine going to Louvre and the show some pixiv stuff.
>>714003184>willing to do all the crappy blue collar jobsThen of course. Birth rates being low means more job openings and they are upping their number of migrant workers.
If you're not Indian, they'll probably snatch you up as fast as they can.

>>714003450No, probably just katakana, but kids are 100% going to call him that. Assuming they put him into a school with Jap kids.
>>714003184Definitely, but only as a half time worker (baito) unless you have some native level japanese shit and the boss REALLY REALLY likes you nobody will hire you properly, even most japanese people you meet don't actually get hired as proper full time workers for the companies they work
What are some places for more cultural/historical tourism rather than just buying figurines?
>>714002442They're the last bastion of good animation, literature, pornograpgy, and music. If Japan falls, so does art.

>>714003643Anywhere in Kyoto
>>714003705>literature>musicOk youโre a faggot weeb nigger. Games and animation sure, but the fact you added music and literature tells me you donโt read or enjoy music, you just pretend to but it boils down to:
Music :(
Music, Japan :O
>>714003612That's because working multiple part time jobs is the new way to work in Japan. Roughly same pay as a full time salaried job but without all the commitment and weird company culture rules.
>>714003591Its going to be brutal for him in elementary school because kids there are monsters without direct adult supervision. Especially if the girls join the bullying. I don't know if its as bad now but when I was in 1st grade there I saw a kid swing a hardwood chair with metal legs on another kid's head because he was fat.
>>714003840I've been listening to Japanese music for over a decade, retard.
>>714003643Zoom into google maps in rural places. Or little islands within the Kyushu/Shikoku area.
>>714003376>>714003450Google seems to think the word is pronounced "yamai" instead of "byou" so whatever, I still see what they did there... But it's fucking retarded. They basically named their child 'disease'. It feels almost as if you were born unplanned and then your parents remind you for the rest of your life that you've basically been a 'parasite' to them or something like that.
Also, what the fuck is the 'run' at the end even supposed to mean?
I don't think it has any specific meaning in this case? Did they seriously just take some random Japanese word then letters which when put together best resembled the child's name? That's retarded. Should've just used Katakana for his name.
>>714003315I will never comprehend the fucks that go over there and attempt to live there with a poor grasp on the language. I get that you can learn a little better with full immersion.
>>714003643Kamakura/Kita-Kamakura is good, it's an area filled with 100s of temples and shrine
I recommend avoiding popular places and finding a quiet one with a nice garden
I've been to japan every year for almost 10 years.
The amount of indian people I have seen has SKYROCKETED from 24 to 25. Legitimately could not go 5 minutes without seeing one.
Unironically japan is finished

>>714003840Not that anon, but don't you be dissing on m-flo
>>714004036Byou is another pronunciation for that kanji. ็

Byou or Yamai. Means same thing used in a different way.
>>714004092You defineitly listen to gay boomer metal bands nobody likes anymore.
PewDiePie is rich and can just leave Japan whenever he wants if his kid is getting fucked up
>>714004092this faggot definitely listens to rap and other gay shit lmao
>>714003921There's a reason nearly every Japanese manga or anime or movie or TV show out there is about school bullying.
>>714003921I got kicked in the balls unprompted by some crazy bitch back in elementary school. I didn't even ever interact with her, she randomly just seemed to have some schizophrenic breakdown and decided I was the closes guy she could kick the nuts for no reason other than to enjoy herself.
She had it turned back on her later in the school year where she, from her own accord broke her upper teeth when, in another schizophrenic meltdown, she just suddenly crouched down fast, in front of a desk, after being gently touched by a classmate and just full on slammed her entire upper raw of teeth into the side of the desk and they broke off.
Was good to see some of that energy she gave to others be given back to her, and this time, it wasn't even anyone doing it to her, she just caused it to herself. But yeah, that child is fucked if he grows up surrounded by Japanese children. Though, it's very likely they'll just send him to a private school with other foreigners.
>>714003643Kanazawa, Gifu, also south of Nagano prefecture has some cool stuff.
>>714003431>It wasn't even super high quality paper or frames It's probably all just UV-printing, very few people paint anime style art in analogue outside of shikishi at events.
>>714004037They just stay withing their bubble of acquaintances/diaspora. Some just like the general convenience of living there and don't give a shit about japs.
>>713977650Funnily enough there aren't that many jeets in Akiba. I went just a few months ago and there are a fuckton more of them, but more in the Osaka area. Coincidentally, my favorite place in Akiba is Joutou Curry, which is staffed by two jeets. Honest to God the best curry I have had in the country, it's awesome.
>>714003503holotrash is in the trash
>>714004394Its everywhere. Teachers completely ignore it. Once in a while they'll put on a show where they scream at the whole class about bullying with no lasting effect. Rural, urban, public, private, doesn't matter. Do or die. Cast system is real and the small fish beat up the smaller fish to assert dominance.
>>714004243>>714004360Keep listening to J-pop 24/7 itโll never make you a woman lmao
>>714004036Dude what? Read the fucking reply chain I already said they probably used Katakana. It's just that Japanese are going to be Japanese and give him a real kanji spelling to make fun of him.
Kyoto is a tourist hellscape now. I feel bad for anyone who goes now. Its bodies upon bodies shuffling along at every shrine
>>714004403>Though, it's very likely they'll just send him to a private school with other foreigners.Another disaster waiting to happen. Those places are hotbeds of scum and debauchery. If I had to live in Japan and raise a family it would be in the middle of the mountains as a farmer with only family friends around.
>>714003643Go to Enryaku-ji on Mount Hiei. It's where the Buddhist temple complex and base of operations for them used to be situated in before Oda Nobunaga came in to siege if then kill every single man, woman and child inside the place before burning it down to the ground. Some parts of it still stood up and later were allowed by future Shoguns to be rebuilt, so you can still see parts of what it used to be like back then, but now.
>>714004394I used to think this shit was exaggerated until I read about a 12 year old girl killing herself because of merciless bullying there. The shit they were doing to her was straight up out of an anime with making her strip nude and jump into freezing cold water

>>714004560sorry nigga i wrote and posted it before reading the reply
>>713980368>Radio KaikanHasn't that been closed down for good a while ago?
It's really a shame for the Anons that will never get to experience Akihabara in its prime (mid-to-late 2000s).
Americans being able to travel on the cheap somewhere is the death sentence for that place.
>>713977650>nowdude, it was shit tier in 2019
>>714004775Don't forget Nevadatan
Why are so many people falling for this obvious chink propaganda thread
>japan sucks now, come to our big cities instead!
Like come on man, it's so fucking obvious
>>714004076Which city (or prefecture if you're talking about Tokyo) ?
>>714004647I was there last week and don't see the appeal. Wow cool "old" building.
Sure it's probably fun to read about the history of it, but actually seeing it? Nah.
And Japan's history is kind of crap. They were in their mythic age well after the romans fell.
They are just another backwater country that got late start. And they had to piggyback off the chinese to do it.
>>714004647Kyoto is Japanese Akihabara for boomers, Akihabara is Kyoto for zoomers
Funny how there are fucks tons of places in Japan outside of those two places that offers similar experiences, yet they all flock to one place
>>714004962Are you American?
>>714004757Also go to ็ต็ถๆน while you're at it.
>>714004959NTA, but here's a list: Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, Hiroshima, Chiba, Nagoya, Fukuoka, Okayama, Kobe, all other cities with US Military bases.
>>714004647I've visited Japan couple months ago (Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka), and Kyoto was pretty much a village holiday episode. There was next to no one on the streets, shit felt like Persona 4 overall. But I'm autistically against tourist traps, so I wasn't really visiting all of those popular places, maybe that was my salvation.
>>714004697>with only family friends aroundYes, but they have no family there in Japan. They abandoned all family ties back in their respective countries when they left, Sweden and Italy. Best they get is hanging out with other JP Youtubers like Chris Abroad and the guys from Trash Taste and also relying on them to help them navigate the legal stuff they have to deal with in Japan as well as being their free tourism guides since they can't speak an ounce of Japanese and can't orient themselves around. Their "dream" was to live in the big city like they've seen in their favorite anime, in a small, shitty house with cardboard walls instead of something more properly built like they could actually afford.
>>714004416yeah that was another thing I forgot to mention. I don't think any of those were hand drawn.
If this was the case, than that would somehwat justify the price, but at the same time, why bother if it looks printed anyway
>>714004884this
you can look at tourists statistics and the numbers just recently recovered to pre-Corona numbers
>>713988775what is the top thing
>>714004757Asakura was such a faggot.
>>714004757>>714004038overrun with tourists
there is literally no place in japan that is not overrun with tourists
>>714004647>KyotoIt was already bad "back then".
I can't even imagine what kind of hellscape it must be now.
Akihabara on the other hand was still relaxed. A few foreigners (like me) here and there, but it was absolutely no tourist hotspot.
>>714004789sir this is innappropriate and offensive. prlease delte.
>capitalism: -_-
>capitalism, JAPAN: OoO
>>714005192Its unironically over
>>714005207Onahole
>>713998335>I have to follow laws? I am going to lose my heckin MIIIIIND
So you guys have any recommended parks, pre-schools, and elementary schools to visit in Japan?
>>714005260okay go to the fucking rice fields then. go ask one of the local people from the marketplace if he's willing to show you the countryside he comes from and how he does his work there. ask him to take you there in a field and rape your arse bare while shooting bamboo sticks up your urethra.
>>714005173>Tokyo>>(or prefecture if you're talking about Tokyo)
>>714005306And? Do those other tourists make it so you can't enjoy things?
>>714005260You COULD go out of your way to find remote destinations but those places may not even have websites and reservations can only be completed over the phone. Dekinai-sans wouldn't be able to do it. Why even bother.
>>714004870It's been rebuilt and relocated in 2010, it's not the same place anymore though, it used to be a dingy shady building, but now it sucks-in tourists for overpriced figurines because it's in right in front of the station
>>714005260I doubt there are many tourists in Hokkaido, no rail access means the majority skip it, and most tourists are probably too lazy to rent a car.
>>714005306Lol wut. Its absolutely a tourist hot spot. Half the stores are chinese owned. All the people there are majority Chinese/Korean/Westerners.
Theres like 2-3 shops that are still JAPANESE only and its the manga stores that dont sell figurines.
>>714004950It means less tourists in Japan so I don't mind.
>>714005427>So you guys have any recommended parks, pre-schools, and elementary schools to visit in Japan?ใใพใใใใใณใคใใงใ
>>714005179the question is how you avoided tourists traps. Kyoto isn't that big and has many sightseeing locations, anything close to a subway station and along that one river are tourists.
>>713988775wish you look carrying a used onahole through airport security
>>714005481Nah, I think the shutters went down for good during Corona.
>>714005528See:
>"back then"I'm talking about 10 to 15 years ago.
>>714005508what the fuck is 'no rail access'?
are americans seriously that fucking fat they need railings on the walls in order to climb up stairs? lmao
>>714005670I apologize I misread
>>714005678anon probably means train access

>>714005948>OMG HE RICH THAT MEANS EVERYHING WILL WORK JUST RIGHT FOR HIM AN NO PSYCHOLOGICAL ISSUES AND TRAMA WILL ENSUE OMG MONEY IIS SO GREAT JUST STFU! LET PEOPLE ENJOY THINGS!you grew up poor and are now projecting your view on how life would've been better if you were rich onto others. that child will grow up to be absolutely fucked and there's nothing mommy's and daddy's money can do to fix that for him.
>>714005678You are a complete and total retard. Imagine being double-digit IQ AND obsessed with the US kek
>>714000120I think proposed years ago by China and Russia at the UN, it was simply an international treaty to criminalize just the same "sexually explicit" images of real children, but now with also gens and shoops (and seemingly also child-ifed real people)
just recently China has attempted to include criminalization of cartoons/comics/manga/animation, which just about every western country, including the super shitholes like CA, UK, AU, even NZ, voted against, probably for overreach
other countries can probably ignore UN bullshit entirely, but JP asked for reservations on domestic enforcement as one of their current laws retardedly prioritizes international treaties (98?), and it would undoubtedly conflict with all their other laws on free expression if the reservation isn't raised domestically
>>714005508I thought that too but then I actually went and it's full of Chinese people
>>714006123>that child will grow up to be absolutely fucked and there's nothing mommy's and daddy's money can do to fix that for him.Pain builds character.

>>714005937I sincerely hope not.
>>714006123>there's nothing mommy's and daddy's money can do to fix that for himHe can be privately schooled, and interact solely with other well-behaved children that are friends with his parents. Yes, being worth hundreds of millions of dollars does indeed enable them to raise their child and live in quietude, even in a foreign country.
>>714005670Are you retarded, new radio kaikan was never shut during corona, corona wouldn't be able to kill that place it's a huge and clean building right in front of the station, it's a fucking landmark.
Old radio kaikan got demolished back in 2010 due to it being old and it obviously has nothing to do with corona, so I don't know what that fuck you're talking about
>>714006287This is post number two of you obsessed with America when you see the words 'rail access'
>>714006357These cuck retards continue to forget rich people live completely differently lol.
Akihabara is the Mecca of ironic weebs. Give the rural areas or give me death.
>>714006123nta but you underestimate how easy life is with tons of money, the rich live in an alternate dimension and can transcend legal, linguistic and cultural barriers easily
will he always feel like an alien? probably but he'll always be different due to money and there's probably an upper crust of rich people in japan who speak all kinds of languages and don't care that the local ramen place only speaks japanese
>>713978414And remember that these people mass harass foreign countries by mass calling people's homes every day to try and scam them out of their hard earned money.
>>714006441yeah you have no rail access. get FUCKED you FAT FUCK. learn to WALK UP STAIRS.
>>714006123>noooooo the jp kids will bully hiiiiim [furiously masturbates to the idea]His father is so rich he'll never have to work a day in his life, he'll likely get sent to an international private school and the name you're bitching about is a regular foreign one.
And you're an idiot if you think jps don't look up to rich people and celebs, he's got a free pass to get into relationships with people well into his 20s.
>>714006483>farm :|>farm, Japan :O
>ESL has melty due to poor reading comprehension
Many such cases on modern 4chan
>>714006483Akihabara is where normies go to show how "whacky" japan is. everyone and their dog has been there
>>714002852desu in japan, if you're not japanese, you'll always be a tourist for almost all japanese, even if you've lived their all your life, even if you've learnt their language
if you make a mistake, it'll be frown upon because they'll think you're a gaijin. If a japanese makes a mistakes, it's just a japanese making a mistake.
Now does that excuse them not learning the language? No, they're huge retards. But they'll always be gaijins, even their child.
>>714006564ah yes just sleep around and become a fuckboy instead of marrying and having a family. surely that will go down for him haha. you have no idea what you're talking about retard. you're just enjoying the idea of living your fantasy through a child.
>>714006729Relationships. Not simply sex.
>b-but it doesn't count if people want to hang around them to say they know X person
>>714006424I checked back and it was about individual shops in ใฉใธใชไผ้คจ closing down, not the whole thing altogether.
The reactions on 2/5channel and twitter/x were pretty much Armageddon-like at the time, though.
>>714006123is this just one massive projection kek. do poorfags really.
>>714006670Why are Viets such chill bros compared to spastic japs?
>>714006676you know what would make this image better?
a bunch of browns and arabs running all around that green zone raping the local women down into submission.
>>714006561Japan is covered in rail. Are you saying that Japanese are all fat?
>>714006123>that child will grow up to be absolutely fuckedliterally impossible if your parents are rich
>>714006912it's covered in rail because railing each others asses is basic japanese culture and etiquete, so it's part of them to be gay homosexual faggots who spread aids
>>714006956>literally impossible if your parents are rich
>>714006956literally unavoidable if your parents are rich, lmao this fuckin nepo baby thinks hes not completely fucked
>>714006189The cartoon overreach I don't think could ever make it through. That would be like getting arresred for drawing two stick figures. It will probably not pass or else they'll let it linger and hope people forget about it.
>>714006636I don't think they even realized the mistake they made.
>>714006483Search for "moving to rural japan" on youtube and theres like a million jeets and whites vlogging about living in the Japanese country side. Their culture is unironically cooked.
Anybody ever been to Fukuoka? Bing (lol) sells it as the new hip place to be if you want to break away from Tokyo and Hoenn is my favorite poke region I like water no bulli
>>714001802Their kid is going to be a rich white in a white-obsessed, self hating insectoid country. Their kids gunna be fine, retard
>>714007081is that supposed to be an example? She's a successful artist with a loving boyfriend/husband. I'm sure her childhood was just as pleasant.
>>714006189Wow, that sounds ridiculously retarded.
Although anime and manga is basically a comptetitive export product of Japan, not to mention pretty much a staple of the country so I'd be extremely surprised if this isn't going to be resolved somehow.
>>713977975kek indians are so fragile
>>714001802I've seen a few whites born and raised in Japan. If they're successful and wealthy enough they usually move to the USA in the end.
>>713999092i think most people glorifying it haven't been to any big city, aside from the posters with massive anime girl tits it looks exactly like any other main street in the world, i managed to get cheap plastic models and some old out of print nendoroids but most of the things there you can get on amazon at the same price
>>714007287she's a literal whore with no self-respect, both from her and others (for being a nasty whore) and will end up in Hell for the degeneracy and debaucher she engaged in.
>>714007287You don't end up starring in hardcore 'facial abuse' porn if you grew up having a 'pleasant childhood'.
>>714006831Yeah the stores that came from the old building would never survive the current tourist disneyland called Akihabara.
amiami is sucking up all the tourists with basic bitch anime merch, and making it harder for actual customers to enter the specialized stores of the top floors.
Corona didn't kill Akihabara though, they just put the nail in the coffin for places that was barely surviving from the post-2010 "subculture" tourism craze.
>everyone else moving to Japan or visiting is ruining their ethnically homogenous society and theyโre tourist faggots who donโt appreciate the culture

>>714007525yeah, as i thought. no argument.
