@glad pelican yeah i cant imagine it will take too long to enjoy teamlabs thoroughly
its cool cuz it allows me to be around odaiba too which i otherwise didnt have plans to go around
Hey everyone! 22M, first time solo traveling in Tokyo from 19th to 24th. Anyone interested in doing Teamlab Planets together on the 19th at 10:30AM? I have a nice camera, we can get some cool pics 🙂
Anyone in Nagoya this evening? Giving away a Tuyu Live ticket starting 18:30 at Nagoya Civic Assembly Hall !
hey, it'd be a good idea to ask in the Line and Whatsapp groups, you'll probably find some people
Ohh thanks, I see the line group but do you have a link to the WhatsApp ones?
Awesome ty!
It sounds like it should
So the plan was Since I have something going on near Asakusa in the morning, was gonna meet in Nakamise Street, maybe by the temple Gates or something around Noon or so, then migrate over to Akiba> then Shibuya for our BEEF
That'd work for me
Ahhaha
i’m not able to join the group, it keeps telling me i dont have the app installed for whatever reason
is this normal
@topaz sinew @tender meteor @glad pelican @bitter grail For the 27th, if you guys are joining us in Asakusa in the afternoon before Akiba, I think Kaminarimon Gate going into Nakamise would be perfect.
@glad pelican @bitter grail Cool. I'm filipino. See u on 27th!
Noted. So we all meet at Kaminarimon? What time by the way?
Lets say 12:30 ish, give or take for Transit times
Alright. See you then!
Ight. When the dates get closer by, resend the same info 🤣🤣🤣
Uhm not sure. Never had that problem
yep yep
sweet 🙂
I have LINE btw if u wanna add me there maybe we can get a smaller meetupchat
maybe u can start the meetup chat @bitter grail 🥳
lol ok I will do it
do you guys prefer LINE or do you wanna do it on Discord?? i suppose both work??
https://line.me/ti/g/KDRUfANfCC @tender meteor @glad pelican @topaz sinew @native plinth
this is not the general line chat, just the one for us meeting up for steaks
I have Line, Discord is just as fine, either one is good with me
Any works
I feel like I might miss Discord notifications so LINE might work better
just a hunch tho
joined it just in case, so it should work either way
:V
I am Adam
@bitter grail sorry can u add me in the chat? I cant access it for some reason 🤔
ok one moment
thanks! Already in
i'm in there as well

can i ask if this is worth it to try?
im in tokyo rn and might try it tomorrow if its worthy
Absolutely. I've had this before and at the time it was a top 5 meals of my life. I literally cried it was so good.
I've eaten quite a bit high end stuff since then though but it's still top 50.
Are there anything going on for the next 5 days?

Very much wish I could split myself into three on the 10th
hoho thats alot
gonna have to work up an appetite
or eat less at the Eorzea cafe, I'll just drink a lot there tbh 
Yeah I figured I'd just do a drink and a cake
See, you get certain things based on how much you order, 10 dishes = a pin badge of a grand company. Or that's what they had on my previous visit and I did want to try to eat enough to get it. Or I might be wrong and it was 10 visits and not 10 dishes..... I think it might be each visit you get a stamp actually.
Or no you get a certain number of points per visit based on what you ordder perhaps
Nah I don't I lost it unfortunately
I had a plastic bag with some stuff from my last trip that I couldnt find. Had some stickers and some stuff from the eva store that I lost too.
Shame - same happened to me as well. Lost my yodobashi card membership, my suica, and about 10 random gachas
AH okay yes every item you order you get a stamp
I was incorrect
and they have reward tiers
for 50 stamps for example you get a stone job coaster of your choice
woah -- pretty nice.
you get a stamp for every 1000gil (yen) spent
Okay so the enamel grand company badge requires 17,000 gil spent lmao
I'll be happy just buying a black mage badge from the gift shop.
For sure just lmk
Yeah - I hope they sell cactuars. I can't get enough of those things.
what days are people going to teamlabs? I know a few of you are going different days and wanted to check
also, anyone interested in going to the bon odori festival in hibiya park on aug 25th? https://www.hibiyabonodori.com/
日比谷公園にて毎年行われている盆踊り大会です。毎年4万人もの人が来場して踊ります。全国からの美味しい料理の模擬店も多数あり、とても賑わっています。
Sep 1 for me
I’ve done this one like 7 years ago and it was really fun. Everyone gets involved . It reminds me of an Eastern European horo dance.
Anyway, I will join you if we don’t go to our baseball game. Some folks on Reddit and I are still deciding on the day.
https://kobebeef-ishida.com/honten/ if anyone in kobe 9/2 I booked myself a reso there
Splurging my ass out on Kobe beef 😂
Yaaas
I am planning to! can go together 🙂
ahh i see, can i check if it is like 10k per person as in when one enters its 10k or usually it'll take 10k worth of orders to fill up one person?
Hi friends! 29M from Canada here. Currently doing an onsen tour in Hokkaido but I'll be in Tokyo from the 10th to the 12th. Will be posting up in Akihabara most likely. Any events happening during that time? I'm pretty much down for anything! 🙂
Also any good omiyage snack suggestions to bring to family in South Korea?
It’s at least 10k. There is only one meal choice. You pay extra for drinks.
alright! thanks
Anyone gonna be in Kyoto tomorrow?

Hello hello! 29M first time solo traveller from Australia. Will be in Tokyo from 8-15 August, Kyoto 16-19 August and Osaka 20-23 August. Would love to join in any festivities, cafe or bar meetups within any of the areas 🙂
There is a really fantastic gig happening at Enoshima on Thursday night https://www.instagram.com/p/CuW0yC0RyOe/
I will be there
Friday is a holiday so this week’s blowouts are on Thursday
#shibuyameltdown is a day early
Tokyo, Kirshiki, odawara, Kyoto, wind wakayama!
We are in shibuya hanging if anybody is in the area and wants to join
@frozen maple I’m heading to Shibuya now but a bit groggy post migraine. What are you guys planning to get up to?
hi everyone, 19m currently in shibuya, planning to meet some people and hopefully get some food / walk around the city, etc, sometime this week/weekend? let me know if you’re interested!
Hey @leo993, what day where you planning on going to Yakiniku?
That’s planned for September 1st !
my id is bladings (or Sam in the august GC).
And yea, straw hat was cool!
hi, anyone going to Minato Mirai Bon Odori Festival in Yokohama? I plan to visit the Gundam too. This will be in 19.Aug/23
IIRC 2 people in this chat are going, messages were sent not too long ago
I think they were going to the one in Hibiya Park (which I also plan to go too!)
By the way - r u already in the Line chat for the Aug 27 akiba + steak dinner?
oh i see. And no, not in the group currently. I assume thats the SE café and akihabara day youre reffering to?
correct. on the 27th aug?
yep!
Im trying to add u to the groupchat but my line is getting an error
Will be in Tokyo from the 10th-19th message or ping if anyone is up for anything!
@topaz sinew haha may I pick your brain on other need to tick off Tokyo eats? we seem like fairly compatible eaters.
Today my goal is to hunt down an okanomiyaki stall (none of this cooking business ahaha), eat a fluffy Japanese pancake or a fruit sando/strawberry cake, and eat conveyor belt sushi
I have given up on trying to find an omakase experience. That’s a next time thing for me
A few of us are going around Tokyo starting at shinjuku and finishing off at night with teamlabs
Hitting a few Game Center’s along the way
I suggested the perfect end to the 27th for the group here 👀
#1126324769948717077 message
They’re talking about TeamLab in the morning iirc
I’m 30mins ahead of scheduled meeting time
Shinobazu pond will have okonomiyaki
For pancakes and shit Pasella resort
The pasella resort in akihabara?
They’re everywhere
Oh
What places in Tokyo r u guys visiting?
Currently at shinjuku suppose to have 1 more person but no response
No concrete plan as it was formed last night
Ending with teamlabs
What time is ur team labs slot?
Is it the final slot? Thats the only slot available for me rn if I were to join.
No, I'm down to meetup in a bit. I'm gonna get some food first and wherever you guys are at, I'll meet you guys there.
I was just asking about Team Labs to see if I should get the ticket or not.
Probably eating in shinjuku once we figure out what happened to the 3rd person
Oh shit perfect, I'm based in Shinjuku Sanchome.
I’m at taito station waiting
You’re at exit 10?
Alright give me 10 or so minutes and I'l be there
Hey is there space for 2 more peope for the dinner that day?
Any big buildings or signs around you @onyx cairn
Oh

Further north

[All you can eat A5 KUROGE WAGYU BEEF] 7 minutes on foot from JR Shibuya Station, Tokyo GINZA STEAK TOP page of Shibuya Shop. Please enjoy carefully selected A5 KUROGE WAGYU BEEF Buffet with reasonable price. We are serving the highest quality of kuroge Wagyu in front of you and you can choose your favorite wine from the wine list.
Fyi @topaz sinew
with so many people coming that night, I feel like we need to call and tell the restaurant at this point instead of doing the individual reservations o.o
This is getting slightly out of hand lol
little bit lol
It started with me only at first, then Leo was like "that looks good" then another, then another lol
snowballs into everyone coming lol
ill put a message in the group chat too
Add me to the list 😂🙏
At this rate. We might as well hope their 9 seat private room is open for us
Lmao
Also I want to draw attention to the fact that bed hosts the most incredible cutting-edge subculture parties in Tokyo and the next one is on the 26th all night at clubasia
unfortunate that it happens on the same day as the daisy bar show
This is a late-night event so it starts after that
No timetable yet but probably 10 or 11pm-5am
Is it worth the 40min walk?
I mean bedroom events are kind of the epicentre of Tokyo subculture. Rare and unique opportunity to have your mind blown by music and a community that you will only ever see here and now
so I’d say yeah
What is Tokyo subculture?
Boy do I have a video for you https://youtu.be/Uwm5zEMeVyg
In Japan in 2023, one band is going further than any other to build not just a fanbase, but an entire new subculture. bed's music, gigs, and events stir audiences into a frenzy. Find out what has propelled this band to stardom status in Japan's musical underground.

Along with telling you about all kinds of music events 
Ain’t no shame in it
Today winnings
Sorry forgot to replay. I Was too drunk lol
That’s a solid ¥3000 haul
Seems more than that
5PM Ushi No Kura. You're welcome to join us. There are 3 of us so far.
Then 2 of us are heading to the Tricot concert right afterwards at 7PM.
4000yen bocchi....
added to LINE group
Fluffy pancakes - benitsuru (very hard to get in) or Happy Pancake
Fruit sando - I have no strong rec here. I have failed you, and I will atone for my sins.
Okonomiyaki - It's hard to find okonomiyaki that doesn't make you cook it yourself. However, if you head into kabukicho, right next to the sex shops and people standing looking bewildered, wondering what they are doing with their lives, there is a shop. It's just called Okonomiyaki.
Tell them you don't want to cook it, and they will cook it for you, and then bring it out. All you do is add your sauces at that point.
the most popular dinner I've ever seen in a meetup.
Wait a minute!
I'm interested in this but I can't commit.
I found the best okonomiyaki to be in Osaka
Do ya best.
There's a group here going to this gig earlier in the same night too https://www.instagram.com/p/Cu1W7f7xZmY/
Yeah, this. If you're heading to Osaka, I would just save the okonomiyaki until then
I've got this on my calendar already. I can commit to this. Just not sure what my late late plan will be.
Ok no worries 👌
Think walk-ins will be okay?
For the late one? Yes there's no reservation for that
If only I booked my trip a little earlier 
I queued up for a place on my last trip and it was godly, I think I had to wait an hour or so. It was packed inside.
I’ll need to check my Google location data to try and find it again, if it’s still there
I bought three tickets to the Tokyo Giants vs Hanshin Tigers baseball game on the 25th at tokyo dome 6PM. Ticket was 2300¥ each.
Myself and 1 other person (vanillacupcake) are going, but the third person isn't able to make it. Would anyone like to join us?
If you're looking for a blast of a cultural experience while visiting Japan, go to a baseball game! What you hear in this video continues non-stop from the first pitch to the last for BOTH teams.
I’ll be in Tokyo August 12-15 I’m pretty booked Monday and Tuesday but Saturday and Sunday I’m down for drinks or night life. I’m 23 M American
How did you buy tickets I’m looking to go maybe on this Sunday coming up idk if any tickets are left though lol
I bought them because they were almost sold out. I don't think there any any left for any day except the 25th. And from what I saw on the Giants website, it was almost sold out as well
I’ll be in Kyoto then, but will join the LINE group to keep up with we’re you all might be
I think I could go to this? I just have my Hakone day trip but I'm really only doing the torii gate and ropeway then heading back to Tokyo, and I'm doing this at like 6am so should be back by then
If you want em you're in!
Game's at 6. I will setup a group for the three of us
why are you keeping the sticky thing they put on figures
Not sure the name of the LINE group, but I’m rimmak13 if you can add me
Anyone down to join me at Royal Crystal Coffee for high tea on the 28th? going to the todoroki ravine park beforehand for a little walk as well. https://goo.gl/maps/qZUYjXKB87Pkt9YX9
Is anyone into BJJ and can recommend me a gym in Tokyo I can have a drop-in lesson at?
Hey folks! I'm not sure if any travelers remember me, but I am the guy who set up the fireworks event near the Sumida river. I have a rare day off today, and I don't mind showing people around Asakusa. Let me know if you would like an evening/night tour, and let's do a bit of bar hopping!
!!!
Really good gig this evening in Shibuya. Johnnivan are one of my absolute faves https://www.instagram.com/p/CudQ6eOPclY/
Hey guys 33M Filipino/Canadian here just arrived in Tokyo (first time!). Will be here until the 11th then off to Kansai from 12-17 then back to Tokyo until the 23rd. Let me know if anyone is doing anything those dates!
Anyone in Osaka tonight and want to grab drinks // go dancing?
Hi! Still around?
Yeah I’m in namba
Same! I am dying to do something fun tonight
I’m not big on dancing. But I like hopping around on different bars
If you don’t mind me asking what is your age ?
30F
Not dancing is fine too! Lol
I will start going out around 7ish pm
I may be free in tokyo tonight if any bar hopping is happening!
god to be in 19 in a 20yr legal drinking age country
I went to Las Vegas when I was 20. Worst time ever
I am nearly at the venue for this #1094426807169720330 message
I'm in dotonbori so I'm down to hang if anyone else is
I'm good for izakayas, might check out the socore factory set tonight. Ever heard of dj 川 @torpid flax ?
I’m heading there in like 10-15 min
Heading to socore now
I’m in kokomo bar
In dotonbori
Ok
Where is this! I can’t find
Nooope
For everyone interested in a bar in Asakusa or just bar hopping in that area. I highly recommend going to @steel mango bar or his recommendations. I enjoyed his company and his bar a lot.
My absolute favourite band in Japan (which is saying a lot) is playing a rare show next Friday the 18th in Shimokitazawa. This is such a good lineup, you’d be mad to miss it if you’re in town
https://www.instagram.com/p/CtsxqiMxmx1/
Anyone have any free time and would like to come with to visit Nikko on August 31st? Plan on seeing the shrines, kegon falls, and hopefully lake chuzenji!
I'd love to do something like that but I am in Osaka/Kyoto on that day
^
If your plans aren't hard set I could be up for something like that when I am back in the Tokyo area but it would be more like September 3/4
Any plans for the 5th?
literally none
I had it as an open day in Akiba
but seeing as we gonna hit akiba on the 27th i can switch it around
I thought that area looked nice when you first posted it but wasnt sure if id have time to jam it in there. are u just doing it as a daytrip?
yeah, I was thinking just as a day trip, would have to leave really early in the morning
me leo and 2 others thought of going on Aug 31st but the other 2 couldn't, so im thinking just move it to another day
Hi! My name is Linus and I just arrived today in Tokyo and wow! is it hotter than I imagined 😅. Have you guys got any tips for dealing with the heat? Guess I've got to buy better shorts.
Someone here said there is some point the heat reaches where its not useful to wear shorts but instead cover your skin
Never
Tell it to the people in the desert
why are they covering up entirely
They also don’t have 80% humidity
What’s your point
Just commenting based on someone who lives there? lol
"Your body temperature is approximately 36.6 degrees. When air is cooler than that it helps to dress down to cool, because air cools you down even if hot. However when it’s 38 you need to protect yourself from the heat and your body does a fairly good job of keeping you at 36.6 even if it’s 38 outside, you just help it not to overheat by wearing long sleeves."
Show your legs
no
@red heron you guys should fight
Pff
i'll be the debate moderator
eat my shorts
That my line!
Hello and welcome, get your Visitor in Japan role id:customize
And the breeze on the knees feels great!
Stay in the shade, drink plenty of water, and get these salty sweets from the convenience store to replenish the salt you lose through sweating
@bitter grail you're going to kill me when I show up to our teamlab meetup in shorts 😂
I prefer skirts
I thought you had to do TeamLab in shorts because of the water part... or was that Borderless
do many people carry parasols or umbrellas for shade? I thought about just carrying one around, I get so hot easily
I think so, so squid must be in shorts that day 
I was one of those. Would be in Kyoto during said time and mine's on 28th or something
Leo wanted to move to 31
but no can do
teamlabs planets has water features that go up to your knees
Roll up dem pants
you need to be able to roll or have shorts
Roll
@torpid flax thanks for the tip!
I live in the Dominican Republic so im kinda thinking that its going to be hot but not too far from what i experience here every year maybe ? 😅 🤣 i see a lot of people commenting about how hot it is now
The heatwave two years ago in Canada, didn't matter if you wore light pants or shorts
I also worked it in. Was better to have relaxed pants than getting burnt to a crisp
I went from 13°C yesterday in Sweden to this, gonna take a while to get used to 😅
Does anyone have anything planned tomorrow morning?
@quiet kraken Heya, if live music fits under 'pop culture', there are some really really good events happening during that window that you might want to check out.
I will be at most of them:
12th https://www.instagram.com/p/CvMvlY5RZzN/
14th https://www.instagram.com/p/CvBldVUxrR5/
16th https://www.instagram.com/p/CvUu7oQxvSl/
16th https://www.instagram.com/p/CvcE8b2RD7W/
18th https://www.instagram.com/p/CtsxqiMxmx1/
It's more common in Asia, So that wouldn't be a bad idea, plus sporadic showers in Late August so carrying a umbrella with you wouldnt hurt
anyone wanna go to this w me
thanks I’ll check it out!
ive talked to the guy that organizes those and am friends with their old vj
they put on good events
not 100% sure yet if ill be in tokyo on that date but if i am ill definitely be going

Ah cool, just came out for dinner, I’ll be heading to Hiroshima tomorrow
23M from India here btw
nice one what time you leaving?
Tomo? It’s just a day trip I’ll try to leave as early as possible, cos I want to go to miyajima too
@tender meteor what days are you free to do things? You still want to go to bon odori at hibiya park the 25th?
Let's do it! I am free on 25th and have no work on that day. I plan to go to some museums in the morning but would def want to end up and go to the festival
Totally normal. I usually wear bucket hat then umbrella with some UV protection whatever 🐕
That day I plan to be near the ueno/taito area. They have lots of cute cat shops and I just can't resist 😆 could meet up later in the afternoon and go to the festival. Which museums were you planning?
sounds cool! yup, let's meet in the afternoon. nothing planned yet so far, checking out free ones as I dont wanna shell out money 🐕 haha. if i finish early lemme see if i can join you on your neko journey! But yes let's def meet on 25th!
Sounds good to me!
I’m going august 24th-26th!
Two of my absolute favourite acts playing easily-accessible shows in Tokyo tomorrow, check 'em out.

Heading out to Tokyo for the last two weeks of August. Should I be concerned about the Typhoon season?
Don't jinx it
That's when I'm around Tokyo
Hopefully after this one they stay away until I leave
😂😂
If I miss my residence move in date because typhoon cancels my return flight to Toronto I hope the university accepts "Because of typhoon" as an excuse
How is it there right now?
Right now it's sunny and warm but there's a typhoon that looks set to smash into the mainland on Tuesday-ish
How long will that last?
Usually it just messes up one day. They don't stay for long
Landfall could be Tuesday or Wednesday
Thank you, I should just bring a bunch of raincoats but then again, it’s hot there lol
Anyone doing anything today?
I'm going on a free walking tour in akihabara at2pm
Going here tonight https://www.instagram.com/p/CvuOTbPyQbG/
Oh sweet, I'm in Akihabara too
Where at?
Is there a dress code?
No
Gathering at becks coffeshop but you have to book it at https://www.tokyolocalized.com/booking
@young roost but if you come you might still be bale to join
Nice!
There's an Obon festival with dance that starts at 5pm at kandan myojin if anyone wants to join!
*Kanda shrine
Anyone in Kyoto right now and fancies a drink preferably a visit to one of the nightclubs tomorrow? I am solo travelling and going alone feels awkward haha
For some reason i cant join on iPhone…
Maybe you need to join the main community first
I joined fine on iPhone though, is the community not there on the app after clicking join?
Everytime i click join group it states that i dont have whatsapp installed, which is clearly wrong
I think it may be busted if you open the link in the discord browser, gotta open it in safari or w/e
It is the same for safari and google
Weird, I think I had the same issue but it just kinda worked I think
Or it just appeared
Ill keep trying different methods then, thanks for the link anyways!
Hey guys, I’m (m26) visiting tokyo for the first and am staying from 12.08.-23.08. Since I’m on vacation with my family and want to get the most out of tokyo, I was wondering if any of you guys were down to hang out after 10/11/12pm? 👀 I would be down for almost everything haha Really open for suggestions!
almost anything 
Flying in at 5 am on the 31st to Tokyo. Prob get to my hotel in Ginza a little before 8 am to store my bags. Anyone want to catch breakfast and/or hang out through the day. Trying to make sure I stay awake till that night. 31M from NC,USA.
I'm down, I like nightlife but not into going alone either haha.
yo, I'm planning to go to a live japanese hip hop gig tonight if you/anyone else is keen??
I love hip-hop, idk any Japanese though lol.
neither, will be an experience though I reckon. I went to the place it's at called west harlem and its a cool crowd there, last night was a leftfield/bass/techno gig with great music
Cool, looks good. I'm down.
sweet you up to much this evening? Could catch a drink and a meal before hand if you're down?
Sure! I only got here yesterday, about to sightsee now but will be free later.
Thanks for directing me here!!
Sorry for the late notice——
Is anyone in Tokyo today and wants to see Moulin Rouge at 13:00?
2 tickets at the Imperial theater. Sold out show.
I had to postpone due to a friend's emergency and no refunds.
FREE!! because I don't want them to go to waste!
Pick up from 7-11 with a ticket number, already paid for, I don't think there's an ID check.
I would be down to join if i can make it in time after studying and sightseeing
I am available
Ok will DM, hope it's not too late!
sweet be in touch
Organizing a karaoke on the night of the 25th near Tokyo Dome. Three people confirmed coming. Looking to get 6 total.
(could also do Shinjuku area but Tokyo dome is most convenient)
@cloud anvil @silent moth hows it goin?
Done sightseeing, back at my place.
Pretty much done soon 💪
sweet im not super schooled up on discord but will try add you to a chat with Atem
let us know how it was/is !
Just popped by , sound system is great and first live acts starting now
My god, it's so hard to book these michelin restaurants.
Places like Kondo and l'effervescense are sold out for months, and then there's places like narikura where they open up reservations the week prior and it's a mad dash to get a spot.
Set my alarm and literally got the last spot for narikura just now. Heart's still pounding.
What website are you using? I need your website!
I only see this
I just go to the restaurant page and click make reservation: https://omakase.in/en/r/qw473765
any others you want me to look at
https://tabelog.com/en/tokyo/A1309/A130905/13003531/
This is the only other one I really struggled with
Nodaiwa unagi is another, but I'm thinking about passing on it.
Hey y’all my gf and I will be in Osaka from Aug 14th - 18th so tell us if you’re down to meet up for a night out. Aged 24 if that’s important.
Flying in tomorrow 😵💫
Good luck 🫡
@minor willow Haha you’ll have an absolute blast for sure!
Enjoy !!!!
7 more days to gooo
One more week o work, aaaah
lucky, I still got 10 days or so, but i'll see you guys there when I get there
9 days
8 days 🛫🛫
hey folks, i've been lurking on this channel for a bit now but have finally pulled the trigger on my trip. i'll be joining your large-ass group for ginza steak. @topaz sinew mind if i tag along on your ushi no kura dinner and any tonkatsu you may have planned too?
Did you get confirmation for your reso
Idek if there's enough spots for that date cause of so many ppl lmao
Yep i got a confo email
you get some last minute tickets?
Yep. I’m in Asia now but flying back to SF from Narita on Sept 3. Wasn’t sure how long I was going to spend in Tokyo until just now
@civic breach Welcome to the big-ass steak group. I believe @native plinth was the OG of the group. I'm simply the growth marketer.
For other things I'm arranging (there are many), please check my reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/JapanTravel/comments/15jjvyc/finalized_solo_tokyoosaka_itinerary_with_pictures/
The reddit post is only about 80% accurate at this point despite it saying 'finalized'.
Bad news on the tonkatsu though. That was a hard reservation to get and I cannot alter it.
Ushi No Kura just maxed out as well. 😦 I will still call the restaurant and see if they can do 5 people instead of 4 though. So there's still hope.
We are doing karaoke several nights (25, 29, 7). Guaranteed to eat something as a group during those nights.
Please DM me your LINE id and I'll add you to the group
oh boy, the Ginza steak crew be like:
All the tourists in Japan are coming. Just confirmed.
@civic breach Ushi No Kura was like, "yes of course we accept parties of 5. Are you stupid?"
So you're in!
The staff at Ginza steak Shibuya is gonna be like, "its strange...everyone on the main counter seem to know each other"
"We met outside the door"
Proof their word of mouth marketing worked
Sweeeeet! Thanks Leo. Looking forward to it. I decided to opt out of the Ginza Steak bc tix were cheaper arriving Mon 8/28 instead of Sun. I wanna hear what happens when you folks mob the place though!
I'm hoping the restaurant is still in business by monday
Im still processing that i'm flying literally next Thursday morning...it can't come soon enough
My flight is in 4 days. I'm basically living at my desk to finish all my work before then.
Gonna be in Tokyo from the 29th to the 1st, if anyone's down to grab food or go karaoke lmk

My favourite spot Shimokitazawa Basement Bar is having a newcomer indies event tonight. You can go and see some really fresh stuff
I can make it for karaoke on the 29th assuming it’s in Tokyo 
It’s Tokyo !

Hello all! My girlfriend and I are gonna be in Tokyo from the 20th to the 3rd. I'm reading that fellow travelers are organizing some meetups for steak and karaoke which we would be absolutely down for. Where do we sign up? 
Steak stonks 📈
The steak place is literally going to be like "what do we do with all these foreigners" lol
Give them steak ofc
hey folks, does this msg on l-tike.com mean tricot tickets are no longer on sale?
That’s right. As it says, they were on sale until 10pm yesterday
:0 What time are you guys planning for the 25th? Got any spots left?
Current Karaoke Dates:
Near Tokyo Dome - Aug 25th - Ty, maika, leo, Luke, Luke's gf, (breecer?)
Shinjuku - Aug 29th - Mutsuo , TsukinoHime, leo, orbitra, funchie, Senno
Shinjuku - Sep 7th - vtss., leo, rimma
You're in!
Probably 8:30-9 for the Tokyo Dome one.
Ah ok sorry, unfortunately got a concert at the same time 😦
Ahh, how late will it be? I can text you where we are and you can join later if it still works out.
It goes till 9
I think the Shinjuku ones will be later, btw, and run much later as well.
Going to a gig and then karaoke… that’s a pretty killer night out
kk, it near Tokyo Dome? There are a ton of karaoke places near there and I can find a place on a train line tha tis convenient for you.
Yeah that would be cool, ty!
Uhh its in Saitama xD
oof
The best I could do is move it closer to Akihabara.
I'm pretty sure people would be open to that.
I have the JR pass, so I'll let you know if I can make it on the day of, but you don't have to go out of your way
👍 No worries at all. I'll put you down as a temp: tmp 😄
I think we can move it to Akihabara in general. Maika / Luke / Luke's gf are all in akiba/ueno. I think Ty is in shinjuku and I'm in akasaka. So being a little closer to Akiba makes sense.
So much good stuff on tonight, if you are free you’d be a fool to miss it #general-chat message
we'd love to join on the 25th if there are spots left!
Anyone in Tokyo up to hit the arcade or karaoke on Friday? Also going to summer sonic day one too. 27M 🇵🇭🇻🇳 from Cali 🙂
we also have some other activities like teamlab on the 30 and other dates, ill have to check the steak house reservation page again, last time i checked it was full for the 25th unfortunately
Akihabara - Aug 25th - Ty, maika, leo, Luke, Luke's gf, tmp, crispy (breecer?)
Shinjuku - Aug 29th - Mutsuo , TsukinoHime, leo, orbitra, funchie, Senno
Shinjuku - Sep 7th - vtss., leo, rimma
@runic spoke you make lucky 7
I'm about to send all of you a friend request and make groups
Thanks man, it would be me and my girlfriend
I mean 😜 crazy 8
My first two days in Tokyo and it says it's gonna rain next week 🤣
gotta love summer showers 
I’m so hype for this karaoke
I will need to be sufficiently intoxicated, but I’m sure that’ll be a non issue.
You and me both
Anyone in Osaka 08/31 wanna celebrate my bday with drinks later in the evening we more or less have a plan set
That was supposed to be my temple day for Kyoto and Osaka was gonna be 9/1 but I could prob swap the days
What u guys doing?
They say pretty much the whole week...and yet it's supposedly not gonna cool down temp wise lmao
I'm literally making my way back to Tokyo from Nagasaki, unless I off at Osaka for a few hours lol on that day
I'm heading to Kyoto today and heading back to Tokyo on Sunday the 20th. Anyone else in Kyoto during this time?
I’m starting at drunken clam and then just gonna bar hop tbh
Lol I'll join u
I got a hotel set up there so I'm there for the night life anyway
I’m down to hit up either one tonight or Friday
Sick, do you have an IG? I’m down to hang out tonight too
Yeah. Logan_5607
Anyone wanna hangout in Tokyo? I’m staying in Tokyo all the way till September 8th. Down to do whatever, pretty flexible and have lots of time. Second time in Japan but first time travelling alone.
Me and a couple of others are going to this show tomorrow https://www.instagram.com/p/CtsxqiMxmx1/

I’m also in Kyoto till the 20th. If you are the same Linus from whatsapp group we may have met back in Tokyo
@thin belfry must have been another Linus, I don't have WhatsApp(been using discord exclusively too meet others). I tried to make it work as well as Line since I heard others were using it(I gave up). There's something with my Swedish cell service provider that doesn't work correctly here .
@rare spade I’m in the area, just need to grab a snack first so I’ll probably head in at 9:15
No worries. Am just exploring the area will prob head in soon
Walked past, looked like they’re not quite open yet
Boutta head in
Oh really
I’m like down the street atm
Meet me at the supermarket at the top of the street?
Sure
Am right at the top of the street/near the sign
Oh sorry like I said I’m getting food first so I will be out in 5 minutes or so
No worries man
@sly otter ah right. In that case we haven’t met. Wouldn’t mind joining yourself and Panzers to check out Imperial Palace since I was about to go there tomorrow too
Nice! The more the merrier!
I’m outside
I’m omw
Done! Unfortunately can’t hang out tonight. But I’ll see you guys tomorrow!

This site too apparently
On site as well
I’ll probably stop by at one point
My favourite band plays at 20:20, so I recommend coming in time for that
I’ll have to keep that in mind!
Reserve a ticket for ¥500 off (top link) https://smily.bio/gigsintokyo
I’ll prob just try to come on time and see everything haha
Always the best way 😉
@ panzer @thin belfry I'm walking there, walking from Kyomizudera. I need to get something to eat. Been walking since 8:50. I'll be there at about 1:30 as well
Gonna get something from family mart or similar
I grabbed ramen earlier at Fire Ramen before the lines got long
I stood at the wrong bus stop so I’ll be there like 10 mins late I’m sorry
Wow where have you been?
Walking tour start at gion shirakawa, the pagoda the. Kyomizu and a few places in between
I'm a few minutes away where are you guys at?
Outside entrance 4 of the station near the Family Mart
Street cart @Shibuya, 19 Aug, before sunset.
Is there still room?
Yep!
It’s literally my second day in Japan, and I’m only 18, no age restrictions right?
No age restrictions 👍🏻
Welcome
Just reserve a ticket by email #1094426807169720330 message
Alright sounds good! I’m a big fan of bands too
The venue is here
https://maps.app.goo.gl/bnhBDfoxwp6f3Mb36?g_st=ic
Okay, tyvm
Where exactly should we meet at?
I will get to the venue for opening time (18:15) to gather people outside
@torpid flax is it common to bring a bag or no
Yeah it’s fine. Best to not have one if you’re planning to dance around a bit, but even if you are you can usually drop it on the floor somewhere. The venue may or may not have lockers I don’t remember
Yeah it’s fine. Best to not have one if you’re planning to dance around a bit, but even if you are you can usually drop it on the floor somewhere. The venue may or may not have lockers I don’t remember
Yea I’ll be a bit late, will find y’all inside!
@thin belfry @sly otter guys?
Stopped for some photos 😅
lol
Did u go up or straight?
Will be there around 6:30 wearing a blue Fanny pack
Okayyy
I’ll hang around outside until then
I always forget Fanny pack is a word/thing, as a Brit it always makes me chuckle
I’m downstairs
i go in the line?
T-shirt says SAGOSAID on it
Yep join the line
Lemme know if you struggle and I will run up
i gotta piss hol up
@sly otter are u guys still climbing?
Not now, we stopped at a vending machine and a house, are you further up? Or down ?
@keen skiff We don't know which direction you went still
lol try asking for a rubber in America
@keen skiff ?
Right in front of door downstairs
I prefer manpurse. Although the English just call them their "carry"
We use the word bumbag
the one behind is the four leaf clover taxi
That’s a dpad to a PlayStation controller
bagina
Basically what a fannypack is to us 😂
Will anyone go to summer sonic in Tokyo tomorrow? (today)
So it begins. See you all soon
After all these layovers it's going to feel like I leave Monday
It's actually not that bad. About 19 hours total. Flying from Bulgaria to Germany to Tokyo. But I fly business class so I get one of those lay flat seats which makes me pretty rested and ready to go when I land.
Yeah it was more than my usual trips USA to and from Europe. But it's technically a business expense. 😅
Lots of water mate.
Which place y’all going to for tonkatsu
Thursday morning can't come soon enough
Tonkatsu Keita
Will be 20 hours to get to Tokyo for me. Long layover in JFK, then fly 14 hours to HND in ANA first class. All paid with points.
Hi! I'm looking for someone to go to Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan with on any of these dates 20-22,24-25 AUG 🙂
American Express points transfer to Ana?
Long layover means more time in the real good lounges 😂
Amex transfer to Virgin Atlantic actually. Was a huge pain to find the booking. Basically used a tool called cowtool to keep looking for availability for months and hopped on the first one to pop up 4 months ago and then planned my trip around that.
I am going to be in Osaka from 20-22 August and want to check out the Aquarium
I've already lost 5kg. It's hot
I can’t wait to do this too 🙏 😂
Can you go ahead and bump the thermostat down to at least 30 before I get there?
I've been yelling at the sky. Nothing is working
@topaz sinew Update your role to Visitor in Japan id:customize
Updated. I know my role
Would you like to join me tomorrow? 🙂 I'll be there at 10am
Is it possible to go on 22nd instead or have you bought the ticket for tomorrow?
22nd works too!!
I'll buy an online ticket for the 22nd
Awesome! I’ll do the same. See you there at 10 am 🙂
See you there!
Anyone in Tokyo interested in going to a water park like tokyo summerland?
Also we would have to take the train, its way too far to uber
We can do the 21 or 25th
We’re about to go check out shibuya and then the church bar if anyone wants to join
Lets do 21?
How far out is it
Its a 2 hr commute one way from sumida
I might be game, wya now
Church bar opens at 8 if you wanna meet there
This is the website
You can switch it to english
Church bar vibes
Definitely can't make it 8, currently in ryogoku. Will get there eventually lmao
Probably like 40 mins
See ya soon man, just @ me
^
On the move
Ah damn
Kabuki. @pine scarab
Are you at church?
gang shit
Nah just pulled up in shibuya
Lol
Shinjuku
Hello. Is anyone free tomorrow (21.08)? I don't have work tomorrow so I am free but I have no itinerary planned actually 😅 I can join you on your trip and also help with your photos! Lemme know:)
Damn that was a long flight
Hey I’m free today! gonna do Shibuya sky at 10am then just explore Shibuya + Harajuku until around 5
Cool! I am otw to Tokyo cant prolly join you in Shibuya Sky, but can for Shibuya and Harujuku. Perhaps after lunch will connect with u!

Anyone going to Ueno beer festa later?
I’m going
Hey! Late and probably a long shot, but do you have dinner plans? I just got in from Kyoto and am looking for places to eat. 😋
Which area of Tokyo are you in, and you might get some other offers/options
Unless you know Neil 😅
Oh I don’t lol. I’m in Kanda near Tokyo station, but not opposed to going to other places :3
Thank you!
Had dinner at the same restaurant bar from the Lost in Translation movie. Great views. I was really hungry so the food was good at the time, but thinking back I'd probably rate the food a 7/10. Expensive for what it was.
Their signature 'duck fat fried potatoes' was just french fries that were extra crispy. The steak itself was cooked well and was a good cut, but there are way better places in tokyo.
It's an experience, and you probably had a great view of Tokyo 😀
I'm in Asakusa, and if you want to have dinner or whatever - let me know - I'm easy
Think Kanda is 20-30 minutes away from Asakusa
Happy if you have other offers or whatever
Would love to. Any places you’d recommend? I just checked into my hotel and can head out whenever. I have absolutely no plans for the rest of the day.
Just got to Tokyo today (first time), was in Osaka before and met some couple people from here while there. Will be here for at least a month, based in Shinjuku area.
@regal thunder @obtuse flare hey sorry for late response. I just woke up. The extreme heat and walking killed me so I would probably rest for tonight. Enjoy dinner!
Super good view !
@obtuse flare @regal thunder can I join you guys?
I'm easy - nothing arranged so far
Yes! No plans yet tho lol.
Anything either of you are in the mood to eat? Or we can also meet somewhere and walk around til we see something.
Nice! I'm staying in Ueno since yesterday so I'm quite close to you guys.
Meet up maybe, I'm not that familiar with this area yet
I can come meet you at Ueno lol. It’s just one station away from me. Or I guess we can all meet at asakusa @regal thunder
I'm easy
There are a few places around Ameyokocho, and probably around, but I don't know the area that well
Wanna check it out and meet at Ueno then?
Just a suggestion
Ameyoko is great
I’ll head to ueno station.
@obtuse flare I'll start walking there to meet you guys
OMW
which exit are you taking?
I’m at iriya gate
Ok thanks. I have no idea where nr3 is 😅
I barely know myself, just realized I've probably went too far and missed your exit
Getting there
Alright I'm there on the outside. I'm wearing blue and have red shoes
Btw i think im the only at the show from discord lol, just a heads up
Take a picture of a landmark?
I'm probably on the wrong entrance, but it's closer to Ameyoko
200 odd metres away
Ok we gonna try to come to you
At the bar
Do you know the name of your exit?
Central gate
Starbucks at Atre, is a waypoint too
Are you in the Starbucks?
No - stay there, and I'll find you - apparently you're 60M away
Ok. We’re out in front of it
Alright folks. Night's young. Who is out there right now? I'll be in Shinjuku in about 20 minutes
im going to be in kyoto on the 26 and 27, and looking to maybe meet up with people and join on adventures. im honestly not even sure what all there is to do in kyoto. i had plans with "friends" but they turned out to be the opposite of friends. As for my likes = anime, nature, samurai, nature, bargain priced delicious food. I do not drink, nor smoke, nor do pachinko. and im not much for clubs or bars.
Oh good. I'm coming to the right place
Golden Gai?
Current status
So jealous!! 7 days to go for me

Who up in Tokyo 🙀🙀
I am! I couldn’t sleep any longer
What bar was this?
Got a reservation at Sugita for 8/31 at 20:30 for 3. Need two others to join in
Cost is 36,300 yen plus 390 yen for the reservation fee
Two star michelin
sushi
I won't be in Kyoto at that time, but there's so much to see & do! Fushimi Inari Taisha, Nijo Castle, daytrip to Uji or Nara (or both in the same day) etc
Hi everyone! Going to be in tokyo from Aug 27-Aug 31, with flex plans for the week afterwards. I've been to tokyo quite a few times -- interested in anime, gaming, fountain pens, antiques and traditional handicrafts, and food. would love to go bar hopping in the evenings, esp at some of the cool cocktail spots
lol seems like it. Thinking of doing that 1 star ramen place for lunch on the 31.
Sure, no problem.
Ill be in Tokyo for the same dates in case you are interested we have Karaoke the 29 and Teamlab Planets the 30 in the morning, im also meeting with some people in Shibuya the night of the 28 to try some places, just let me know 😁
Anybody in Tokyo want to grab dinner tonight?
I’m down
Awesome, can I DM you?
Yea
Anyone in osaka trying to drink/clubbing?
Also down if you haven’t went yet!
@obsidian tree I can't do dinner but I might be up for some drinks later if you're around
Sure I’m down for drinks after, but I don’t really know what’s going on with dinner yet so idk when or where I’m gonna be
