[idle torrent]

Shinjuku is where the crazy is at

[small musk]

[frozen cedar]

Okay well please check this before you pass out #1100639500641783808 message

[oblique grove]

Blue packpack and a rainbow flashing PokeBall plus. Easy to spot

[small musk]

Y’all are going to death match? Should I

I made it 14 days and now im codependent on a chat group

[remote grail]

Not deathmatch but bar on same street

[small musk]

Omg

I thought they were roach free. That was a major bonus. Kinda counteracted the spiders the size of my hand

These vending machines are not that exciting yall. Glad it wasn’t a special trip to see these (the “weird” ones in aki）

[crystal aspen]

[sand crater]

@ripe mica i love your top (or coat?) it looks so cute!!

[dawn sparrow]

How awful time for revenge

And by revenge I mean having an absolutely blast without them and flaunting jt on your socials

[ripe mica]

Thank you! 😊 I'm here for thr clothes! And from what I've seen I think the best thing is to just come to Japan when I need wardrobe!

[ripe mica]

Yes please!!!! 26日 I'll leave!

Girl do what I'm doing and take pics with a bunch of dudes! Plus, we got good guys here, they make me feel safe. All chill dudes...but please invite me when you're around!

[ripe mica]

It's a onesie 🙂

[ripe mica]

I skipped two days 🙂

Also before this year I hadn't drank for like 7 yrs, I am catching up!!!

[gritty ember]

Great I may get to know you too

[grave bobcat]

Looking good guys!! Have a great dinner there. I’ll be on my way tomorrow 🙂

[ripe mica]

Yesss of courseee@!

We r at warp shinjuku

[queen locust]

Looks like a good time! Shinjuku seems like the place to be

[hollow cedar]

They look good. Sorry I got back so late.

[grave bobcat]

@ripe mica great! And have you visited WOMB already? I'm super interested in checking out the night scene in Tokyo! Mind sharing some awesome clubs :)))

[novel grail]

Is there a techno/hardstyle club in shinjuku?

https://tenor.com/view/mine-he-he-he-funny-memes-gif-25060533

[boreal coral]

Wednesday wins the karaoke poll! I’m thinking Karaoke Kan in Shinjuku starting at 9 pm unless people feel strongly otherwise. I’m also down for pre drinks somewhere nearby tbd.

https://maps.app.goo.gl/BYaWnyUT7CDe62c5A?g_st=ic

[gritty ember]

Till when are you staying? I like this vibes

Also if anyone know about rock or visual k place. I'm up to that

[hollow cedar]

I wonder if there's a trance club. That would be amazing.

[modern marsh]

You're a clubber?

[gritty ember]

I'm up to this too

[hollow cedar]

Not particularly, I just listen to a lot of that genre

[iron mason]

Finally got here yesterday. Just had to rest from the trip

[iron mason]

Would we be meeting somewhere else before that?

[boreal coral]

I’m also trying to find somewhere to dance tonight although I’m more into house / disco but can do techno if it’s v good / weird

Might just go to bar bridge in shibuya

[knotty rampart]

Haha, well doing that won’t make him jealous, and it definitely won’t make me feel better! 😂 I think he would be happy and feel better if he thought I was moving on

[knotty rampart]

I’ll definitely be trying 🥲

[soft raptor]

Send him hourly "HOW COULD YOU" messages or something, then get back to hanging out and vibing ||(Don't actually do this)||

[earnest sundial]

Time to go to Roppongi Hub

Have a good time and take your mind of it

[boreal coral]

Yeah I’m down to get dinner and/or pre drinks before karaoke, suggestions welcome! Otherwise I’ll decide on something by tomorrow

[hollow cedar]

They're playing japanese renditions of christmas carols, it's a nice vibe

[short nova]

I thought shibuyastation was bad but it has nothing on Osaka namba station, so glad hotel gave pics of what to look for, as Osaka thread is dead anyone else in Osaka the next few days?

[hollow cedar]

You've not been to the Osaka Umeda station, that place is a maze lol

[hollow cedar]

Was in osaka at namba, dotonbori is extremely packed in the morning and afternoon

If youre staying in namba do food stuff later in the day once tourists have left

[short nova]

Sorry I meant umeda not namba

Too early 😛

Plan is to find a surugaya store, before heading to the Eozea cafe in Dotonburi for a late lunch

Maybe day trip to Hiroshima tomorrow, see how I feel

[mortal beacon]

^ well that's fun

Can't make it though

[ripe mica]

We r trying to get a group for an interesting bar....hehe

Might try to get it tonight but also later too if it's cool

I haven't checked put womb but there's also club Asia in shibuya

Dunno if I'm allowed to say, if not I'll delete but the bars theme is bdsm, and it's not a play club

ALSO

If anyone wants to come I'm interested in checking out a host club. It's cheap the first time just don't fall in love, drinks included

I'm gonna research more interesting spots, cause in weird like that will keep you posted

[vagrant patio]

Damn. Wish I was there already. 9 more days

[ripe mica]

[oblique grove]

Nah that place was lit

[ripe mica]

Omgggggg ash you should've mentioned it last night

But how's it taste?!

I'm not gonna eat it for the novelty! Has to be to intrigue me

[oblique grove]

Cockroaches were meh, but the worms were bomb. Bbq flavor

[ripe mica]

BY THE WAY, learned the ofuro at least at apa stops it self

I ran up thinking it was overflowing

[ripe mica]

Did you try tarantula?

[oblique grove]

Japanese friend eating the worm lol

[oblique grove]

Nah I want to try the scorpion. Had some in China a couple years back

[ripe mica]

LOL he so proud to show how its done

[oblique grove]

We made a bet. I'd try the roaches if he tried the worm

[ripe mica]

Ooooooh

Nice deal ahaha

[mortal beacon]

Sign me up, I’m very down for almost any kind of interesting experience. Tonight I’m drinking with a Japanese friend coming in from Osaka and tomorrow I’d like to join the karaoke group but I’m very free outside of that (in Tokyo til 23rd), and possibly things can be combined

I’m not personally into bdsm but I often find myself in bdsm spaces back home. Not sure if host is catered towards men or women but I’m down either way

[ripe mica]

Keep you posted let me research

Arcadia is a rope bar
So you don't have to tie or be tied, but if you'd like to learn seems advanced can help news

Newbs

But it is 6k yen Dx I think, let me see

[ripe mica]

Tonight I'm staying in bakuro

Are you gonna go home before midnight ?

[swift beacon]

You gotta know when to stick to your plans and when to say fuck it

[ripe mica]

Mhmmm. Is this one of those moments 🤔 😳 😕

[ripe mica]

👀👀👀👀

[swift beacon]

for me, those moments usually happen much later at night

[ripe mica]

Oh I see

We are night owls

[swift beacon]

sadly, I have to be home to do some adulting on Wed

[ripe mica]

Great things happen when the sun goes down

😦

It's a curse

[cold garden]

@swift beacon I do need to hit up don quijote again to buy some gifts for friends, if you wanna go together

[swift beacon]

Let's do it! What time are you thinking?

[cold garden]

Whenever, im getting ready to leave my place now and go anywhere

[swift beacon]

Ok. I guess I should go to Donki first and pack after I pick up that stuff. Should we just meet in Golden Gai? Have a smoke in front of Bar Champion? 🤣

[oblique grove]

I can send you a list of stuff I had saved in Tokyo via Google if you want. Some weird stuff like car meet up spots but some nice restaurant and iconic places are in it

[cold garden]

Yesssssssir

I can be there in 20 mins or so - time it takes me to walk there from my airbnb

[swift beacon]

Ok. Let me know when you head out and I'll try to time it

[ripe mica]

Ooh I'm not into cars that much but i was thinking it would be cool to meet ppl there

And plus they look gorgeous

[cold garden]

Omw there now @swift beacon

[modern marsh]

You guys doing izikaya?

[swift beacon]

@stable monolith I’m down for dinner and drinks

[ripe mica]

No we're eating worms and tarantulas

[modern marsh]

Any good recs? Id rather by 3 new shirts than do laundry

[stable monolith]

@swift beacon sweet y’all gonna stay around Shinjuku the rest of the day?

[ripe mica]

Style type and avg price?

[swift beacon]

Yeah. I gotta go back and pack

[modern marsh]

Drapes well over man boobs

[ripe mica]

Oh btw I would love to do a street fashion photo session where I ask stylish people if we can take their photo but I don't have a fancy camera, I think that would make it more official, any photographers interested in doing that?

I can approach them and you shoot them

[wild cape]

Anyone in Kyoto and want to get some nightlife stuff going tonight?

[stable monolith]

Cool I’ll head over in a bit might take me a little while tho I’ll hit you up when I’m around

[weary palm]

You sound like that nice happy female recruiter for sex cults

Totally not guilty but going with the flow

🙇🏻

[weary palm]

But being a girl helps a lot

[ripe mica]

Who is she ? I admit, I am going to make a village/retreat in Switzerland or Norway. I also wanted to turn my home into like a safehouse inn but I'm leaving states instead

I don't dress like her but my spirit animel is Miwako from Paradise Kiss (Joseimanga)

https://tenor.com/view/miwako-paradise-paradisekiss-manga-anime-gif-25870353

[modern marsh]

I saw a fuy at harajuku taking photoa of people

[ripe mica]

Did he have camera? It's not as legit with just a phone unless I'm drunk

[modern marsh]

You should try there. And ask if he could send em yo you

He had a camera

[ripe mica]

Ooh yes

Is he from the group or random?

[modern marsh]

No a rando japanese guy

[ripe mica]

I think uniqlo would suit your needs, Zara is a little fancier but they have US sizes

And if you wanna explore, on takeshita street there's like a vendor that does big t shirt prints and sweatshirts. Also kinji thrift store is there

For more fashion

[cold garden]

Saturday, we're at coco curry rn at shinjuku

[idle torrent]

Disneysea

[novel grail]

Ah I accidentally posted in the november thread. I'm actually going next year March!!

[novel grail]

Same^^

[umbral sun]

Akihabara is pretty awesome, how’s the anime/arcade scene in Ikebukuro?

[fresh pelican]

We’ve been hanging around there the last two nights. Pretty enjoyable, but I can’t compare it to Akiba considering I haven’t been there.

Tons of shopping opportunities, though.

[ripe mica]

I haven't been to arcade yet!

I would like to go and take purikura eith someoneeee

Maybe @knotty rampart Depending on where she wants to go

[idle torrent]

Arcades plenty in shinjuku shibuya

[umbral sun]

@ripe mica Photo booths? Haha those sound really fun! I’m down. I’m also up for video games, food and adeventures! Also fashion…cause I need to update my wardrobe

Basement floor of the Yokohama Ramen Museum

[idle torrent]

Also confusing too. My nieces tried it earlier in the week at lost 500 yen lol

[umbral sun]

Shibuya is 30 min from me, but I’m down

Oh shit, there’s a Round 1 in Ikebukuro!

[frozen cedar]

Heading to my favourite venue in Shimokitazawa for this tonight

Also, would any of you guys be down to do an arcade night/drinks in Akihabara either on Thursday or Friday?

[umbral sun]

[ripe mica]

Hell yeah!!

I like playing games when it's with others

My sober face ☹️

Ugh I really need nail polish remover

[iron mason]

Awesome!! Let's see how many we round up for that. React to this if you'd like to come to an arcade this thursday near Akihabara. Almost all arcade places there close till late and bars are everywhere.

I'll look for a specific place in the meantime

[stable monolith]

@swift beacon @cold garden y’all still around? Will get to golden gai area around 5

[swift beacon]

I came back to my apartment to pack. Need some time here to pack and shower. But I can catch up in Golden Gai when I'm done.

[cold garden]

[stable monolith]

Sounds good we’ll if anyone else is around Shinjuku and wants to kick it just lmk

[turbid river]

[modern marsh]

[ripe mica]

Guys I'm sorry to say I'm not sure if I should go out tonight. 😦 I can see maybe after I pick up my stuff) but I Def don't want to miss my ride to my hotel

[stable monolith]

Sweet I can head in that direction. You still shopping?

[earnest sundial]

Ooh hotel. Fancy

[modern marsh]

Done. Im actually gonna head back to my hostel for a bit.

[ripe mica]

Precisely~~~

https://tenor.com/view/celestev69-doge-hobo-cheems-sad-gif-24425705

[ripe mica]

https://tenor.com/view/shibe-shiba-inu-doge-dogge-gif-15210982

[ripe mica]

With whom

Also wtf do I do with this

[earnest sundial]

Mr and Mrs shut-in

[ripe mica]

I mean I just haven't been back since I had dinner with her

[astral sage]

Hi. I'm a new arrival and will be in the area in an hour or maybe earlier (in case anyone is still there).

[earnest sundial]

So no lol

[umbral sun]

Yea my feet hurt from doing errands at Tokyo too. Had to do laundry at another area cause the ones at the hotel suck

[knotty rampart]

Yeah I’d love to go do that !!!! I loooove arcades and my ex hated them !!!

[knotty rampart]

I wonder if you can bring them into Australia … I swear my friends have … sad though

[earnest sundial]

Australia doesn’t let you have anything fun

[knotty rampart]

I’d definitely be keen if it was at night !! I think I’m gonna do a day trip daytime

[knotty rampart]

But I SWEAR I know people with blades 😂

In saying that once I ordered a mini naruto keychain with a kunai (a literal keychain it wasn’t sharp) and aus border force seized it and wrote me a letter 💀

also sorry guys I’m so bad at replying my phones broken I don’t usually get many notifications or get them on time 😂😂😂

[umbral sun]

Did you just say daytime arcades??

[knotty rampart]

no like I was gonna go outside of Tokyo in the daytime haha

so night would be best

[umbral sun]

Oh yea good idea, I did a night trip and I just flopped at my hotel

[earnest sundial]

Cloudy tower

[frozen cedar]

Candidate for #1166312280967888966

[earnest sundial]

Good idea

[austere kindle]

@light fox what was that okinomayaki place u ate at?

[lethal knot]

Anyone drinking tonight? Or really doing anything HAHA

[hollow cedar]

Hey guys, I don't think I'll be able to make it for karaoke night tomorrow

Unfortunately, I sustained a concussion while I was at Fushimi Inari, nothing too serious thankfully (at least according to the doctor)

[stable monolith]

Where are you staying? I’m thinking of either drinking w the boiz from yesterday or going to the show habo posted

[lethal knot]

I'm at Shin Okubo right now

[swift beacon]

my plan: drinks in golden gai

[lethal knot]

Thinking of heading to an izakaya I went to on a previous trip here 1st for abit before more drinks at night

[oblique grove]

You deserve so much better especially after the way he did that though. Honestly his loss. Nobody deserves to be treated like that.

Also if anyone is down for ramen tonight lmk

[stable monolith]

Well if you’re gonna be in Shinjuku feel free to meet up with @swift beacon n me for golden gai

Omoide yokocho is pretty fun too if y’all want to check it out

[lethal knot]

Is that near kabukicho?

Yes right?

[stable monolith]

Yup

[lethal knot]

Sounds good, I'll probably join up later after I say hi to the bartender at that izakaya

[knotty rampart]

anyone know any good spots in koenji/ nakano or wanna meet up there sometime this week ?? For dinner and drinks

[knotty rampart]

Thank you ♥️ I feel better having left now !!!! En route to Tokyo!

[rancid lynx]

@stable monolith lemme know where you guys end up in golden gai

[lethal knot]

Just read thru, cheaters suck. Everyone deserves better

[hollow cedar]

Anyone around ikebkuru?

[leaden gorge]

Doing a small gathering at Smile Bar on Friday at 7PM. You can find it in the middle of the intersection here. The tip is pointing at it lol.

[frozen cedar]

Yes #1100639500641783808 message

Golden Gai is boring and you can go any day

[ripe mica]

Hey guys. So I'll probably go in before last train for sure. Buuut, if anyone is up during morning trains I can come back out around 5-6 am

Otherwise, I will maybe just sleep until 8 or 9 am

Then from 9 am, I am free!

[lethal knot]

Isnt this the link to this thread HAHA

[frozen cedar]

No it's a link to a specific message in this thread

[swift beacon]

I think you mean Golden Gai is fun and you should go every day

[frozen cedar]

basic 🙄

[swift beacon]

we can't all be cool

[ripe mica]

I'm trying to decide now what I should do. Between 12 am and 3 am will be a good time for me to make some calls/work while I'm comfy in a bed.

basically I'm saying if there's fun shenanigans going on, I wanna be there

[earnest sundial]

WHO’S GONNA BE IN SHINJUKU TONIGHT?

Sorry caps

[swift beacon]

👈

I know where it is if we want to go there

[ripe mica]

[swift beacon]

[ripe mica]

I'm gonna do the thing at my frie ds house fast hang in shinjuku for a short bit before I catch train back here. And also need to absolutely collect our Swiss chocolate from @uneven ferry

[dire garnet]

Damn, so many people get injured here. Hope it’s nothing serious

[ripe mica]

Hmmmmmmm

If those prices are true, doesn't seem as bad as my last taxi, that shit was 6-9k sob... I can't do that, it's a whole outfit almost

[dire garnet]

I find google underestimates a bit

Plus don’t forget 20% more expensive after ?10pm

[stable monolith]

@swift beacon what’s your eta I got sidetracked I’m vape shopping

[swift beacon]

12 is too early to part

[earnest sundial]

I wanna try some Yuri pickup

Hehehe

[ripe mica]

Fuck it I'll pick up my crap tomorrow or find a net cafe. Will arrive a little earlier

[earnest sundial]

Your stuff will be on mercari tomorrow

[ripe mica]

senses the wanderers gathering

Not that stuff I was going to pick up my laptop and tablet and try to get some "work" done tomorrow

And drop off my friends key. But she said she can wait

I don't do mercari it's a rip off compared to these shops

[cold garden]

Heheheheheheheheheh im omw

That nap helped

[earnest sundial]

I mean the people with your shit will put it on mercari

Anyway

[devout merlin]

Which bar you at?

[stable monolith]

Mackintosh?

[ripe mica]

Lol nooooooooo

Still more than what I paid

And I get to physically touch the material

[stable monolith]

Same street as deathmatch in hell

[ripe mica]

Which is important.

[stable monolith]

@devout merlin

[indigo sorrel]

How long’s everyone around for? I’d love to chill with y’all but I’ve been sick and am heading to Kanazawa for two nights tomorrow ☹️ back after that tho

[uneven ferry]

@ripe mica , just mention here later which bar you guys are, and then i will follow you. Chocolates, Cigarettes and Powerbanks are in my bag 😂

[devout merlin]

a little bit lost, found deathmatch right away but can’t find mackintosh

[stable monolith]

I’ll pop out

[devout merlin]

I’m by desthmatch rn

[stable monolith]

It’s on the ipposite end

[turbid river]

By the T junction opposite the Harley Davidson sign

[ripe mica]

@uneven ferry for you to shinjuku station maybe 18 minutes

Then you can look up Troll Shinjuku, deathmatch in hell, any of those are very close to the bar they are in Go In. I've tried to search for go in on maps so I usually pick those

[uneven ferry]

ok, may i let you know when i am outside arround this bars

[ripe mica]

Ahhh my phone at 98 percent

Yes pls do

Is the @sheriff back in town?!

[pastel elm]

@runic horizon I think it was you who said to try the tacos in Hiroshima.

I hope it lives up to the hype

[pastel elm]

Sunday I think

[ripe mica]

Aww

[pastel elm]

Also if anyone can suggest an area in Tokyo for a hotel, that’d be nice. I left my last week wide open with nothing booked

[ripe mica]

What's your budget per night

[pastel elm]

That’s a good question. I can go budget to moderate. I do need to keep money so I can buy tons of stuff. Im in need of a new wardrobe

[frozen cedar]

Asakusa area cheapest
Shinjuku/Shibuya area lets you walk home after last train if you care about nightlife
Otherwise anywhere on the Yamanote Line will link you to where you want to go

People who stay in Koenji never leave it and have the best time :)

[runic horizon]

Let me know!

[ripe mica]

Did Sergio leave tooo?

Guys I'm just wearing boring t shirt today

[slim root]

i’m not currently in japan, but i’m heading to tokyo soon (nov 18-21)! landing the evening of the 18th and will definitely be looking for people to hang out with (mainly on the 19th, but prob other days, too)

[pastel elm]

Just reading that it’s known for punk rock and underground. Sounds fairly cool

[frozen cedar]

Punk rock spirit area of Tokyo, in the people you meet in the bars etc. too

When you become a Koenji person, everywhere else looks lame

[ripe mica]

Omg I wanna go

[oblique grove]

Dude Stevie is actually coming out tonight?

[ripe mica]

I am an anti christ!!!! 🤘 I am an anarchist!! Don't know what I want but I know how to get ittttt

[ripe mica]

Unless he's just teasing us

[oblique grove]

Shit packed train to chiba

[ripe mica]

@earnest sundial

[frozen cedar]

Koenji tomorrow or Friday ?

Beats Shinjuku again

[ripe mica]

Maybe tomorrow, what time ?

Friday I will have to go to last train pretty sure

But I totally wanna check it out and buy some punk clothes 😭

@uneven ferry arriving at shinjuku station in a few minutes

[frozen cedar]

I will be coming from work so 7pm earliest

[ripe mica]

Kk

[pastel elm]

The carnitas were a bit of a let down but the birria were great!

[oblique grove]

Anarchy in the UK! Remember that song from Tony Hawk lol

[ripe mica]

Lmaoooo

Tony hawk so old

I almost bought some remade sex pistols shirt

But they were printed on Gildine shoes

Shirts (

[uneven ferry]

[oblique grove]

[lethal knot]

[uneven ferry]

[rancid lynx]

Look for Channels and Roles in the left sidebar

[cold garden]

Golden Gai

[feral snow]

My dinner plans fell through but I’m so tired and sore I might just pass out myself 🤣

Unless somebody happens to be in ikebukuro and wants to drag my ass out somewhere lol

But it’s getting late and options are closing 😦

Might just go get a quick conbini snack just so I’m not running a massive calorie deficit today 😂

[uneven ferry]

my hotel is in ikebukuro and i left this district and walking now to shinjuku. Its too lste, i am apologize, its too late

[feral snow]

Yeah I spent all day in Shinjuku and Shibuya and don’t really wanna go back there at this point I’m exhausted 😂

[swift beacon]

That’s the bar in golden Gai

[feral snow]

if they dont have a flagship apple drink i dont want it

[rancid lynx]

it's more of a whiskey bar. but you can try your luck

[uneven ferry]

@ripe mica i am outside

winered jacket, black jeans

[ripe mica]

Ok I'll be there soon but I'm feeling stressed and annoyed. I may drink after all 😦

@uneven ferry

[lethal knot]

So the bar we are all gna be at is called Deathmatch?

[rancid lynx]

That's the landmark to easily find the street. Go look for the sign with "MACKINTOSH"

[lethal knot]

Can't wait to join you party people

[slim root]

i’m flying into tokyo on the evening of the 18th and i’d love to meet up with people!! would be down to explore and hang out that evening and on the 19th, potentially the other days too!!

[ripe mica]

I'm finally on a train home

Gonna take a hot bath then pass out for three hours

Then Mt takao!!

[gritty ember]

@ripe mica till when are you staying?

[iron mason]

I think there's two things going on.

@weary palm just posted something about Andy shin hinomoto and I'm organizing an arcade + drinks night.

[stone dagger]

smh all the cool stuff is happening before I get there

[gritty ember]

X2

[stone dagger]

Guess I'll have to make my own cool stuff

Actually I'll be getting there Thursday. Arcade and drinks sure are tempting. Not sure I'll feel that way after 24 hours of flying and sitting in airports xd

[fresh pelican]

Anyone doing anything tonight? Will have some time free tonight

[iron mason]

@boreal coral was organizing karaoke tonight, hopefully that's still in place since I'd really want to go

[fresh pelican]

Might be down for it if my voice heals up a bit lmao

[weary palm]

Have you ever been to japan? First time right

[weary palm]

🙇🏻

Hope everyone gets through their strong zero initiation

flying in few hours. I should go to the airport instead of rushing last minute as usual

[stone dagger]

Yeah! We'll be in Tokyo for 10 days, so plenty of time to find some people to hang with eventually

[weary palm]

You can go eat some crepes

[stone dagger]

Oh nice, I've never had one

[uneven ferry]

rinnnnnngggg rinnnnnnnggg ringgggg @cold garden @ripe mica : are you ready to go? or should i sleep further? ps: i am your wished alarm clock 👀

[modern marsh]

I was told they were disgusting. Why is eveyone drinking em

[spiral seal]

They hit hard and fast

To be fair, I think the test is decent

[vagrant patio]

Strong zero?

[unreal heron]

They’re not though

[weary palm]

Tisk tisk, time for some Japan travel indoctrination. There’s also lemon-do

[uneven ferry]

[weary palm]

Ooof slam pocari; stay safe

Will pray in a jinja for your health

[fading spruce]

No worries, hope you feel better soon

[uneven ferry]

thx, thx for your organization and have fun together, may share some pics

[ripe mica]

Um I was just about to close my eyes
......

But you know me, 3+ people participation seems to somehow draw me back in toward Kabukicho

I have like two hours left on the hotel here

[ripe mica]

Oh man...you're not gonna hike? Ahh I'm starting to feel my eyes closing...ah.
.at last...

You forgot to drink the little bottle xd

I'm also going go takao on the 18th!

So if anyone misses today, we can go then too

Tonight's plans are: sushiro conveyer belt sushi or shabu shabu, and karaoke !! Hopefully one of things will lure @frozen cedar to shinjuku 😭 😭

But God pls no more izakaya or yakitori

I'm too chicken

[native vine]

Hey y’all 👋🏻 headed back from Hakone today and staying in Shinjuku the next few days. Down for any and all night time shenanigans ! 💪🏻

Tryna find some house/techno too 🕺

[cunning widget]

Hey yall my names Nick. Just got in from Australia last night. Mind if I joined in on the karaoke tonight?

[weary palm]

There’s a sushiro app to reserve too but Wednesday should be ok. For shabu there’s onyasai and you can get the all you can drink

[modern marsh]

All you can drink

Anyone down to see the tokyo drum museum today?

Its likevan hour or less

[iron mason]

Do karaoke!!

[shut plume]

One Free Sumo Ticket S box for anyone in Fukuoka. Please dm me or @placid leaf

[oblique grove]

Pls sushi! Been wanting to try that out. I get out of the health clinic at like 7 tho

[frozen cedar]

Drop it in #1056119213082808400 too

[ripe mica]

Sure we can eat after 7!

Just gotta check their hours

[knotty rampart]

Went out in koenji last night bc im staying there. Can confirm it’s a weird and funky area

Watched like 12 dudes and more come in and do a rap battle in the centre

Dudes skateboarding and giving people random gifts

Other Japanese guy came over and started playing me Japanese Mariah Carey (???)

Lots of stores im def keen to shop around

But ngl the walk to my hostel is kinda sus so idk how many late nights I can do unless I’m walked there 😂😭

[pastel elm]

Definitely sounds like something I want to experience!

Did you see any Bōsōzoku kinda folk? I’d love to see some and their motorcycles but I think that’ it’s rare now

[knotty rampart]

not sure what that is

didn’t see many motorcycles

Some cool cars tho!

[frozen cedar]

Nah you don’t find them in city centres

The cops would shut them down fast

They hang out in the suburbs and rural areas where they can tear up streets and parking lots without bothering enough people to get caught

[austere frost]

Going to be on the Tokyo leg of my trip. Can't wait to finally shop 😭

[weary palm]

@round frost

See I’m always thinking of ya

I’m nice huh

Have your travel change tag lol

[still kestrel]

Waiting to board my first plane. Long journey but I’m on my way guys!

[weary palm]

Waaaaa

When do you arrive

Which airport

Do you have data and all that stuff set?

[idle torrent]

@ripe mica you have that news article about someone jumping from Godzilla hotel?

[dire garnet]

Damn! Get well soon.

[pastel elm]

That’s a shame 😅

[swift beacon]

[still kestrel]

Me? I reach Nov 16 in the afternoon. For data I am mostly gonna go the pocket WiFi route

[swift beacon]

Enjoy your trips everyone! They always seem to end too soon

My trip was so much better because of the people I met via Discord. 🙏

[gritty ember]

Have a nice trip back home

[dire garnet]

Great meeting you last night. Safe travels!

[fading spruce]

@weary palm did you make the reservation?

[swift beacon]

Thanks for the chocolate!!

[uneven ferry]

[uneven ferry]

Please comment or send a DM, your real name and discord username. i dont remember who is who 😂

[swift beacon]

[stable monolith]

It was awesome meeting you Spencer! Safe travels hopefully we all can cross paths again 🤙

I’m number 4 btw @uneven ferry

[swift beacon]

Great meeting you too. Hope we can do it again

[lethal knot]

I'm 6:)

[manic cloak]

Anyone at usj

[swift beacon]

Had to get one final sando

[ripe mica]

So I've got Dan's katana. I can carry it for now, ws gonna pass it on

But like does anyone have a place where we can stash it

Otherwise I don't know what to do with it, it's in a box

[ripe mica]

I'm me! Lol

Anyone have a hotel room where we can stash Dan's katana?!?! Helpp

[frozen cedar]

For how long?

[modern rune]

Hey, is anyone doing karaoke tonight?

[ripe mica]

Idk until we figure out what to do with Uit

But I didn't have time

😦

I made it out!!!!

Holy shit, I think they were a little concerned but generally understood it wasn't intentional and I bowed super low x.x

I didn't know how to say it so I said nanda Kanashii koto attara

Or something like that

If another guest wasn't coming they said it would have been okay to book another night last minute

[mortal beacon]

Free Katana?

[cold garden]

Can leave it at mine til Fri/Sat

[hollow cedar]

Heading to Ueno Park if anyone's there atm

[modern marsh]

I believe Wednesday night karaoke is a thing

[hollow cedar]

Yeah I think it is

I forgot which location though

[mortal beacon]

Don't think one was picked yet?

I have to bail again due to being sick 🫠

[frozen cedar]

Sangenjaya do it

[mortal beacon]

I'll be sad if the one night folks go out to Sangenjaya is a night I can't make it due to being diseased

But the importance of that sadness is much overweighed by everyone else's joy. It's a cool neighborhood do eeeeeet

[swift beacon]

Feel better

[mortal beacon]

Thanks ❤️ Honoring your legacy 🫡

[stable monolith]

I just left ueno park 😅

It’s pretty tho

[swift beacon]

You are required to extend your trip by 10 days

[modern marsh]

Sangenjaya is the name of a karaoke place?

[frozen cedar]

No it’s the area of town

It has a very cheap and very good karaoke place called Best 10

Sangenjaya is also home to Sankaku Chitai which is like Golden Gai without the tourists

[modern marsh]

Sweet

[winged fiber]

Hi, new here, also dont really use discord much just wondering if:
A: This is the right place to meet new people and go out in tokyo?
B: If so how do people meet up and how often?
If I am in the wrong place, apologies!

[modern marsh]

I'm meeting too many Americans

[mortal beacon]

A: Yes, B: By chatting here like people are doing now about Karaoke tonight, and often

[modern marsh]

Yes. Yes. You can organize something whenever you want

And join in on anything

[winged fiber]

Awsome ty - I am going to tokyo for a week (this one) Is there any ettiquite I should be aware of or is it just sorta come one come all?

[frozen cedar]

Just stalk this thread to see what’s being organised and say you want to join when you find one that looks good. Meetups are casual, only some will have max head counts due to reservations etc.

There are also some #1055718934483062804 threads for specific days and events eg #1169442858420412436

[ripe mica]

We were interested in doing dinner and karaoke tonight, karaoke is because @boreal coral leaving and she hasn't had the full karaoke experience yet!

[winged fiber]

Thanks - will stalk away, hope to meet some cool peeps soon

[boreal coral]

For karaoke I was initially thinking kan karaoke in Shinjuku for ease but open to other spots!

[pastel elm]

Has anyone been collecting stamps? I’ve only got 4 so far and expected a lot more. Am I missing something?

[ripe mica]

I think price is a good factor, how much are they and do they have unlimited drinks ?

Manekineko chain is 3000 per person including alcohol

And free time

[ripe mica]

I haven't been to shimokitazawa or shibuya really, but if everyone is dead set on Shinjuku, that is where I will be

[frozen cedar]

¥110/10min (so ¥660/hr)
Soft drink bar ¥300
Alcohol drink bar ¥800

You can bring your own food and drink too

[boreal coral]

Best 10 sounds cool to me, been wanting to check out DJ Bar Tengu Shokudo nearby anyway. Could meet there before?

My travel bud wants to do shabu shabu for dinner before. Any good spots near?

[weary palm]

go to shib and enjoy

[boreal coral]

Or potentially up for the Manekineko in shibuya if that’s more convenient for folks

[frozen cedar]

Strong choice

I am up for it but I need to finish some work this evening before heading out so I will appear at some random time whenever it’s done

[earnest sundial]

Is the drink bar one off or per hour?

[ripe mica]

I finally got a rollie suitcase!!

It's divine.

[frozen cedar]

One off, no time limit

[ripe mica]

What time did you wanna start meeting up ?

[boreal coral]

Like 9 maybe?

[austere frost]

Yay, finally made it back to Tokyo

[boreal coral]

Give people time for dinner n shit

[dire garnet]

Chilling around daikanyama. This is a cool spot, so many great cafes

[ripe mica]

K if we do karaoke at 9 perhaps we can do sushiro at 7:30 !!!

[austere frost]

Any cafe you would recommend?

[dire garnet]

This place was recommended to me by a local yesterday. And then checked tabelog and it seemed to line up. Only problem is i just missed the lunch menu 😦

https://s.tabelog.com/en/tokyo/A1303/A130303/13134309/

Ordered coffee, pancakes and a cake lol. Will post pictures and thoughts on the coffee in the food channel

[austere frost]

Wow it's got a very high rating for Japan

Was the wait long?

And thanks for the suggestion. Gonna pin that down

[dire garnet]

No problem. If you’re ever in nakameguro, this is a cozy spot and really like the coffee here. Went twice in a day lol

https://maps.app.goo.gl/qqgdtteUfkm2AWkt7?g_st=ic

[dire garnet]

No wait at this time, pretty big spot with indoor/outdoor, really nice decor as well.

Lmao oh shit, waitress told me i ordered too much and i definitely did…

[dire garnet]

Posted pics in #food btw

[austere frost]

Thanks a bunch! I'm always looking for a nice place to have coffee haha

[austere frost]

I do that all the time

[dire garnet]

Yeah ahha bad habit of mine 😦 i’m like a kid where the mum says “you can’t eat all that” and i throw a tantrum

[austere frost]

I was with another person from discord and we were making bad decisions together 😭

Every time we pass by any snacks "you should get that!"

[dire garnet]

Ahahah that’s it, food overload here

[austere frost]

Yes 😅

[ripe mica]

Ahhh the lighting is really cool and funny Adrian eating already 😆 🤣

[iron mason]

I'm up for whichever. I don't mind moving around

I'll keep an eye on the thread but if you guys decide on one maybe you could tag me?

[modern marsh]

Yo so what time is karaoke and where? Can you pin on map please

[boreal coral]

Let’s do a poll! If you wanna check out the karaoke spot in sangenjaya hit the 👹 emoji and if you prefer shibuya hit 🎏. Either way we will meet up at 9 at a bar nearby and then head to karaoke by 10 let’s say.

[modern marsh]

[frozen cedar]

[iron mason]

Anyone near Harajuku or Shibuya want to grab a coffee or early dinner in a bit while we wait for it to be karaoke time? It's going to be a big loop around going back to my room in Ueno and back to Shibuya just to drop off my stuff

[knotty rampart]

I’m about to be in shibuya

Was gonna wander around

[modern sentinel]

Idk if I’ll make it to karaoke, but I’m near Shibuya right now
