May 2024

[stuck gale]

BUT... that means every grape I came across was actually muscat then... 🤔

(I should have taken pictures I guess)

[prime bolt]

Okay I looked it up. Fruit is more expensive in Japan due to limited supply. https://www.timeout.com/tokyo/things-to-do/tokyo-q-a-why-is-fruit-so-expensive-in-japan

[arctic inlet]

Hey everyone!
I'll be in Kyushu from May 14 - May 22
And in Osaka until May 27

If anyone is in Osaka same time, I'd be down to hang out

[fervent wolf]

its between 25 and 30 degrees celcius in my experience

[fervent wolf]

Fill this out 🙂 Can see whos going to be where at what dates

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X29h8nWWr_c96S_hPdMUZeUTaNexK6gZhXjfIrGrwKY/edit#gid=0

[ocean tiger]

The water?

[mild plume]

mango slushy beers - 😮 where is this

I'll be solo travelling, second trip, should be in Tokyo May 9-30th I think, potentially going Kyushu for the latter half

[mild plume]

Oh awesome! I might be doing a similar time in Kyushu - what places are you heading to?

[fervent wolf]

no the weather lol

celcius

[cyan gyro]

[young crypt]

I spent absolutely so much money buying fruit in Japan but the quality was always good

I never got bad produce like oranges that weren't sweet or juicy or something

[round jacinth]

Anyone else staying in hostels during their stay?

[fervent wolf]

i stayed in hostels last year. I got sick for like 2 weeks lol. im doing hotels this time

[round jacinth]

I am kinda nervous about strep

[prime bolt]

Yeah, I'm a bit boujee (and I think older than most), and I really value my privacy... and having my own bathroom. If you can swing it, I recommend finding a hotel or even an Airbnb

[round jacinth]

I'm the complete opposite, I don't mind all that

I mean I do, but gotta make compromises for a discount

I would sleep in a bush if I could

[mild plume]

Aha yeah I'm on hotels too, I've done my bush time

[fiery haven]

respect the bush 🌳

[stuck gale]

I would argue that if you're paying the equivalent of $18 USD for half a pound of grapes, that the quality of the grapes BETTER be good. Can you imagine paying that much and the grapes are bad?

[arctic inlet]

I'll be mostly in Kumamoto, but will also be staying Nagasaki and Beppu

But that portion of the trip I'll be pretty busy with family stuff

[plush arch]

I mean, you could... try to stealth camp or something

[dense wasp]

Anyone going to USJ in May?

[final falcon]

I want to!!!!

[final falcon]

Im trying to go on the 20th

[dense wasp]

Oh shoot no way! I already got my ticket for 21may. I really hope the donkey kong ride will be ready by then!!

[final falcon]

wait omg I can probably swing 21 may

[native gull]

What does this mean

I have to go out and on to another train ?

[arctic inlet]

No you stay on that train. The part where it turns pink color, the train is refered to something else
But its the same exact train

There's a few trains that act that way in Japan

[round jacinth]

I'm this 🤏 close to becoming the next Vagrant Holiday

[cyan gyro]

kyushu homies

Also just replugging this since there was abit of interest, so far these two dates seem to be ones people are down for in Tokyo, so if youre in Tokyo on these dates and want to go out on abit of a bar tour, let me know 🙂
Ill also likely be doing an Akihabara/Nakano exploration day for people on Sunday the 26th.

Friday, May 24, 2024 - Potential Japan Discord Meetup
@dapper moth (And Friends) + @carmine blade

Thursday, May 30, 2024 - Potential Japan Discord Meetup
@nova wharf

Ill genuinely try to run it as an intro to some decent bars I know aswell as a good place to meet new friends so it should be a good time

[valid hazel]

Aw I literally leave Kyushu 10th am :(((( shame!

Can you do any short recommendations for Kumamoto

I can’t drink during the day and staying in kikuchi but like; a craft brewery where I could perhaps buy some good local nihonshu or something

(I’m not an alcoholic I stg)

(Maybe me and my airbnb host the old Japanese guy could drive down to Kumamoto for a drink one night at a bar and get that guy who drives you home in your own car service if it’s possible??)

[fervent wolf]

https://www.twitch.tv/mogra

If anyones online now. This place is really cool in Akihabara. Its essentially a anime livehouse in akihabara. Im going a few times where Im in japan next month

They are live now

[cyan gyro]

Oh ive wanted to try this place!

[fervent wolf]

yeah. Im staying in akihabara during golden week. Im gonna go once or twice

[final falcon]

anyone in tokyo may 15-19 and want to go clubbing?

[frail ingot]

Me!!! i can go 15th if you would like?

[ocean tiger]

Let’s go!

The 16th

[final falcon]

hell yes

[vernal birch]

I can 18th or 19th

[crude abyss]

Same question but for Osaka? Will be there 15th to 25th

Open for bar crawls or just cassual drinking

[untold crystal]

Same for me with Tokyo the 23th-29th(excluding 25th+26th)

[pastel hare]

I'll be in Tokyo May 9-11 and 17-23 :)

hope to find some music events to attend and I'll post here if anyone would like to come with ^^

[dense wasp]

I am interested. I'll be in Osaka from 20-24.

[final falcon]

I’m in Osaka 19-21!

[faint inlet]

i can also go 18 or 19!

[cyan gyro]

I posted abit above! Will be organising discord bar meetup for these dates ☺️ feel free to come along

Not sure if clubbing will be on the table but it could always happen after

[untold crystal]

Oh I didn't see it, that sounds great bar meetup sounds better imo

[cyan gyro]

24th specifically in your date range

[cyan gyro]

No stress this channel moves fast! Will be good, going to try and do it as abit of a tour as well as fun 😄

[untold crystal]

I'd definitely be down to join in then

[fervent wolf]

Im going to Shinjuku warp on the 17th. They play hardstyle music on the third friday of every month

https://warp-shinjuku.jp/event/

[fervent wolf]

Hello @humble dune Check this google spreadsheet and feel free to fill it out. Lots of stuff planned.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X29h8nWWr_c96S_hPdMUZeUTaNexK6gZhXjfIrGrwKY/edit#gid=0

Not sure what kind of music you are into but Me and @plush arch are going to a Visual Kei music event on the 2nd of may, wil probably eat before hand and get drinks after

This is the band we are seeing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oLMY7fdetw

[plush arch]

@valid hazel is also coming, should be a good time!

[humble dune]

oh interesting!! i'm down for whatever so i'll come!

im literally planning this trip so last minute hahah im buying tickets to fly right now

[round jacinth]

Early to mid May here

[native gull]

I want to visit mihoyo office in japan cause i saw some youtube video about someone visiting but is it allowed to go there ?

[fervent wolf]

nice 🙂 these events are really intense and the fans are very dedicated, I was so suprised when I went to some last year. Im not gonna spoil anything haha

You need to make an account on the https://t.livepocket.jp/ website then buy a ticket.

Here is the event link https://t.livepocket.jp/e/0502kinmirai

Its like $35 for a ticket

[fervent wolf]

probably can take a picture from the street haha

[native gull]

i seen people on YouTube going in

[fervent wolf]

just walk in I guess

[native gull]

Ummm

Im not sure how to go in it

i think it is on floor 11 ?

https://youtu.be/dri8KX7fNw4?si=oCN-L7G7WXRjkgUs

See

[fervent wolf]

This was a sponsored visit. they organised it.

[native gull]

How can you tell ?

[fervent wolf]

it says "thank you for having me" in the video desciption

[cyan gyro]

The dudes got 1.4 mill subs and has thanked them 3 times within the description, comments and video

purely advertising, not a fan visit

[arctic inlet]

Hah, we overlap a lot
I'll be in Kumamoto from the 16th through 20th
And I go the opposite direction prior, Beppu -> Kumamoto -> Nagasaki

I guess we can give each other feedback

I may be able to meetup while in Kumamoto, but my whole Kyushu portion is family related
So I gotta play that by ear

[cyan gyro]

Youre all good, kyushu portion for me too is all for my partner's fam

her home island

[arctic inlet]

Oh nice, welcome back

I started a thread over in food for Kyushu restaraunts
https://discord.com/channels/440956791426383882/1222775420588392498
I mainly threw the places I know from Kumamoto, as well as some places around Kyushu

Feel free to add anything interesting

[cyan gyro]

Dam yeah youve been busy!

Ill keep an eye out

[dusty heart]

Damn I should have seen this, I got my ticket for the 22nd rip

Anyone able to book USJ on their website or has everyone resorted to Klook?
It’s just the riskiness of going to Super Mario Land or not

[chrome rover]

I'll be in tokyo on those exact dates, I'd be down too!

[bold moss]

For your reference https://maps.app.goo.gl/p3B8qu7kmqHvQLxt8

[native gull]

If i buy a SHELTER ticket to pickup in a conbini now, is it ok that i can buy it now and pick it up later in May?

Or it has to be picked up a couple days since the purchase date?

[bold moss]

You can typically only print off tickets very close to the event date

to stop you selling them to other people

[native gull]

Can i buy in a proxy now ?

Then pick up when i am in japan ?

[bold moss]

Ask in #events or your own channel, this channel is for planning meetups

[native gull]

?

Ok

[arctic inlet]

Were you just staying in Naha for the Okinawa portion? Or will you be visiting the outer islands as well?

[young crypt]

Id suggest visiting another island if you like beachy stuff. So much fun

[cyan gyro]

[heady lark]

anyone going to be in tokyo around the first week of may to mid may?

[prime bolt]

Can't get the link right now, but there's a spreadsheet pinned to the channel that some of us have filled out with our dates + availability!

[heady lark]

[untold crystal]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X29h8nWWr_c96S_hPdMUZeUTaNexK6gZhXjfIrGrwKY/edit?usp=sharing

[heady lark]

very cool, thats an awesome spreadsheet ill fill out my part

[valid hazel]

How good is the spreadsheet tho I didn’t make it but I love how well done it is

Shows how under appreciated some good old spreadsheet formulas are

[opaque rover]

Holy crap yes, the 2nd pretty please

[bold moss]

2nd seems to be better for more people (also it's Golden Week so it's good for Japanese people too) so I'll look into it... It might just be a bit difficult to get performers on this short notice

[valid hazel]

very keen (can we get that guy who does bring bang bang born)

(hes probs a bit too popular)

duo - creepy nuts

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6FUBWGSOIc

also hope you guys are ready for me to try and karaoeke this

[gleaming vine]

I wasn’t sure if it’d happen but everything worked out for my 8th trip back May 4th-16th 🙌🏻 Time to cram my planning into 3 weeks

[heady lark]

will be there hopefully around that same timeframe, will be my first trip there, would be down to meet up and hang out if youre looking to make friends!

[plush arch]

Yeah I'd definitely be interested that sounds really fun! What times would your event be from?

[bold moss]

6 or 7pm to 10 maybe 10:30pm

Standard live music times in Tokyo

[plush arch]

Hi, I'm Tamara 30F, Serbian living in London 🇬🇧. I'm heading to Japan on a solo trip in early May (itinerary in pic). I've done a solo trip to Korea last year so looking forward to doing it again ✈️!

I am very social so would love to do some bar hopping and karaoke 🎤, and am doing all the typical tourist things too in all three cities so always happy to have some company, especially for Universal studios (12th May), any day trips etc.

Looking forward to meeting people!

[sleek hinge]

Leaves from Heathrow two days before me maybe one day someone will get my flight 😂

[vernal niche]

@sleek hinge cool! I'm in Universal on 12th so looking for other Osaka activities in the meantime!

[crude abyss]

https://youtu.be/0tpLtdlpflk?si=x_IZh91R7Och9eRY

It's so cool! I'm going once or twice when I'm in Tokyo

They have events a few times a week

This is the schedule for May

https://club-mogra.jp/2024/05/

[shy grail]

@cyan gyro Hey dude, I saw on the Japan May 2024 meetup google sheet that you and some others are planning to do a bar crawl in Tokyo on May 24th.

If that is still the move, would ya'll be down for +1?

That'll be my last day in Tokyo and last full day in Japan overall.

[cyan gyro]

Tis open to all my friend

[valid hazel]

So my mate and his brother have a new apartment (in Tokyo) and THEY GOT A PUPPY

He asked if I could pippysit whilst he went to a meeting

And I was like yeah of course ||I’ll take him home with me||

Born in Omihachiman but he’s a Tokyo dog now

What a little fella

Very much a real doggi

Can’t wait to look af- steal him

[sleek hinge]

im jealous 😂

[valid hazel]

He’s so cute isn’t he

I forgot to ask my friend what his name was

But we’ve gotta have a low key one for golden week this year - my mates birthday is 25th, I get in on the 26th, snd puppy isn’t old enough to be alone yet

Lucky his brother has golden week off but for that little bit before it, my mate is home bc he can still work from home

So we’re planning on like having a couple beers in ueno park n shit

Then when his brother gets back from his work, he doesn’t usually go out- yay

Thank god he’s an introvert

[sleek hinge]

lol

[valid hazel]

Bc that means me and bro can hit up the nightlife

[sleek hinge]

and bit the stud u r

[valid hazel]

I’m pretty autistic

Wouldn’t say I’m a stud

Not that being autistic has anything to do with my inability to get over my ex and want to start dating again

But it doesn’t help when it comes to introducing myself to new people; that’s why last time I had such a good experience with fellas in this discord

It’s made me wanna have more

Ya know, it’s insane to meet people

Like we still chat occasionally; check in on each others lives

But we’re all literally from the complete furthest we could be from each other; Aussie, American and Polishman

Like sounds like the start to a funny joke about walking into a bar but that’s literally what we did

[sleek hinge]

i couldnt do long distance

[valid hazel]

Ah well; I take any friends I can get, it’s quite hard to make friends for me so I’m grateful for the ones I do have

@hollow stump ain’t that right Mr Poland man

[sleek hinge]

i mean i made one friend from the last time in japan, hes from brazil with very little knowledge of english💀

[hollow stump]

:D yes

[lavish citrus]

Hi, I beleive that my itinerary crosses with yours on 3-4 days, send me a message please if interested in meeting, chatting, or grabbing a bite or a beer.

[cyan gyro]

Just add ya self to it in the sheet so when Im organising I can invite you

[mild plume]

Been to Japan twice before. Solo traveller here too. 32M British fella living in the US, Tokyo (and some Kyushu). Sociable, and usually up for checking out / eating or drinking whatever. Ignore some of the chaotic planning in the middle, I'm still figuring that out, but the Tokyo and Fukuoka days are pretty set!

[mild plume]

Ah awesome - will fill this out!

@dusty wren We'll both be in Yakushima by the looks of it - but I think I arrive when you leave 😓

[dusty wren]

Yeah, I'm planning on taking the slow ferry back to Kagoshima on the day you arrive

[mild plume]

Hope we both get clear skies 🤞🏽

I've never been - seems like a really unique time

[dusty wren]

Yeah, I haven't been either but I've heard lots of good things about it and princess mononoke is one of my favorite movies

[mild plume]

Haha exactly the same, I was pretty much instantly won over when I heard about that, then I saw some videos/pictures and I was sold.

I left it a bit late and I think there were only 3 ryokans I could book still though.

Should be awesome

You renting a car for it?

[dusty wren]

Probably; I might just do a scooter since I'm solo though.

[valid hazel]

so cool we've got almost 50 people whove put their name down for may

thats insane

so keen to meet yall

[shy grail]

Will do

[arctic inlet]

Oh yeah, you're doing the Shikoku thing

Hard to cross paths there

Makes sure you eat udon in Takamatsu. It's phenomenal

Onsen is never a bad option

[runic rose]

Adding this alt-rock/grunge/midwest emo show to the spreadsheet. Awesome two-act lineup, two of my absolute faves in Tokyo, so please join me if you're around on 11th May.
It will probably sell out so don't think for too long
https://t.livepocket.jp/e/pz896

[prime bolt]

...dude, as a native Chicagoan in his late 30s, I see ANY mention of Midwest emo, and I'm THERE... except this is happening a week before I arrive. 😭 AT THE VERY LEAST, you just introduced me to some new bands to check out. THANK YOU!!!

[round jacinth]

I'm in

[shy grail]

I'm gonna have to do some soul searching and see if I can go because I land ON May 11th around 1pm.

It sounds like a really good time, I'm just wondering if I'll have time to get my things set up AND jet lag isn't going to murder me lmao

[burnt panther]

hell yeah fib, im out here in Madison and this show is happening the day I land in NRT, dont think jetlag will allow me to go 😭

[hearty abyss]

@tidal falcon we might have another person interested for Sea

[brazen lintel]

Haven't bought a ticket, but interested

[hearty abyss]

Same I was going to just buy it there

[brazen lintel]

Would there not be a line lol. I just remember lining up for alotta stuff first time I went Japan

[lavish walrus]

Ooh, I’m interested too

[brazen lintel]

@hearty abyss 1 moar?

[hearty abyss]

Aye let’s go!

[brazen lintel]

les do it

[novel gull]

Anybody goin to osaka in May?

If anyone wants to join me on a mecha hunt, lemme know

[stuck gale]

Have you checked the spreadsheet?
#1192379236527374378 message

[brazen lintel]

What dates

[novel gull]

Doin the things rn, May 3-17

[novel gull]

Thx, filled in my stuff

[crude abyss]

The spreadsheet is awesome

I found 4 people in Osaka same day as me

[heady lark]

i will be for a few days, not sure how you hunt mechas but if possible ill totally join

[arctic inlet]

Just FYI on the spreadsheet, it looks like the portion of the calendar got messed up

I'm trying to fix mine and my neighbors rows

[neat sinew]

...maybe....could be swayed to find metal gear? 🙂

[cyan gyro]

Make sure to go to Jungle SCS

[fervent wolf]

lots of stuff in Den Den Town. Ill be in osaka from the 9th to the 15th

[novel gull]

Ill be goin to hobby shops and 2nd hand stores for model kits and figures and whatnot

[novel gull]

Which?

[neat sinew]

https://tenor.com/view/terminator-which-one-all-of-them-gif-23682124

[novel gull]

Its on the list, thx

[novel gull]

From what Ive seen so far, Ray and Rex(MGS1) are the only ones available(but not at a steal)

[neat sinew]

Really!

Oh man Rex would be one but prolly expenny

[cyan gyro]

also @regal hazel just tagging here instead of general, but if you want some guiding in Tokyo sing out, Ill be organising a few bar nights out for the discord people towards the end of May

just going to some chill places, not like kabukicho/shinjuku etc

[regal hazel]

That sounds so cool! But I will be in tokyo only the beginning of may. Thank you so much for inviting me though!

[cyan gyro]

ah no stress!!

[worldly spruce]

Gonna be in Sendai for Go fest if anyone else is going to that

[polar pecan]

Can everyone quickly check if what they've inserted in the Googlesheets is updated? Realised that my entries for went off and is in someone else's and there are a lot of blanks

[arctic inlet]

Yeah I saw that yesterday
It almost looks like everything shifted down a row for parts of it

[stuck gale]

My entry still looks like it did when I entered it

[arctic inlet]

It’s weird since the equations on the calendar tab are what shifted
It derives the days based on the first tab

[stuck gale]

maybe create a new first tab to try to fix it

just leave it blank or something?

nevermind, I misinterpreted what U were saying lol

[prime bolt]

Yeah, I noticed my info had shifted, too. I updated mine the other day, but checking now to verify

[stuck gale]

wondering if we re-enter our dates into tab 1 if that will solve the issue?

Well... it looks like MrT didn't take my advice... so I guess I'll just do it for him! (lol)

There is a music festival happening in Nagoya on June 1st and 2nd. Here is the website:

https://sakaespring.com/

IF you go, make you ping 'MrT' and let him know you're going!
.

(I know this is happening in June, but posting this here since most people in https://discord.com/channels/440956791426383882/1208376317792485446 aren't arriving until AFTER the 2nd.)

[ember knoll]

ty for the spreadsheet, interesting. I'm surprised that so many are traveling alone. I would die - lol.

[untold crystal]

It's pretty scary the first times but you get used to it eventually

[ember knoll]

Same as flying by plane I guess... last year was a bit... horror. We were on an airbus which made weird noises (which are completely normal)... xD now 14h to japan... lord. and that boeing whisteblower stuff doesnt make it better lol

[errant birch]

Solo traveling can also be very introspective and IMO is a very different experience

Although this'll also be my longest solo trip sooo also very nervous 😄

[ember knoll]

im more nervous about the flight than being in japan tbh

[errant birch]

Fair! Is it your first intercontinental flight?

[ember knoll]

yah, longest so far was 3 1/2 hours lol

[valid hazel]

I’m so glad so many people put their names down it’s really encouraging to see such a good group of people for May!

We’re above 50 names now!!

[untold crystal]

Btw Deen, if you want to I can keep a lookout in the BM groups for another ticket for FF, in addition to my extra one if you'd like

[valid hazel]

Also deen, could be worse my flight to Tokyo is on a 737-max

Hope the door doesn’t come off

/s.

[ember knoll]

oh, thanks for the offer. but my gf rather would have seated tickets... afraid of the crouwd xD

[verbal spear]

Hello, not sure if it’s up anyone’s lane but I’ll be going to this event on the 6th. I’ll add it to the spreadsheet if anyone is interested!

[ember knoll]

oh god... ya i've seen that in the news. idk which machine we are flying with.. let me check xD

Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, we just gonna break apart, thats fine

[ember knoll]

looks awesome, but sadly too early

[valid hazel]

Well if we both make it I’ll buy you a beer to celebrate! When are you landing

I get to Tokyo Friday night

There until the 17th of may

[ember knoll]

oh well, ill take the beer, even if it has to stand around for 2 days, since 19th of may is our landing date 😆

[valid hazel]

I’ll give the money to one of the fellas staying longer

[ember knoll]

haha

[untold crystal]

Completely understandable
There's this but, still not seated

[valid hazel]

Say buy deen a beer on me

@cyan gyro Can you do this

Unfortunately I’ll be working the 19th of may but I’ll have a beer after and think of Japan g

And how I’ll get back

[ember knoll]

never saw those ticket options... only mosh'sh pit, mosh'sh seat and fox ticket

[untold crystal]

They're included in the regular standing tickets

[ember knoll]

ya, we need a second trip aswell, to do the stuff we couldnt on the upcoming one 😄 wasn'T lucky enough for studio ghibli museum tickets 🥲

[valid hazel]

I even tried getting my Japanese friend to buy tickets In Japan and was unsuccessful !! Rarer than hens teeth tbh

[plucky crown]

I might join you for this

[untold crystal]

PaleNeø and KML are really great

[crude abyss]

Lets organiza a pub crawl or somrthing for the people who will be 15th to 25th in Osaka...

Ill probably go straight to a bar after leaving my luggage on the 15th

[arctic inlet]

I overlap with that, I may be interested depending on the day

[prime bolt]

100% down to meet up the day I land (5/17), and at least one other night before I leave for Kyoto (either 5/21 or 5/22, still debating).

[crude abyss]

That sounds perfect, my jetlag should be done by than 😄

[stuck gale]

Hell yeah. May thread really poppin’ off now! 😁

[crude abyss]

3 weeks to go

every day is longer than the one before

[stuck gale]

Lol. I WISH that was the case for me. Too many things I need to do RN and only one week til my flight.

[crude abyss]

If I could really focus I would have a lot to do

but cant...

reworking my website and just cant sit down for a couple hours and do it

[austere condor]

Yes i’ll be in osaka during that period!

[fervent wolf]

heeey!~ this looks cool to me I have no plans that evening! Where did you get tickets from? or are you gonna buy at the door

nevermind I found tickets on Livepocket

[cyan gyro]

idk what date but @ember knoll Ive got 2 drinking nights Im organizing in tokyo for the 24th and the 30th if either of those suit 🙂 itll be people from this channel

[valid hazel]

Juice with the hookup

Knew I tagged the right may traveller 😉

[fervent wolf]

I bought a ticket 🙂

Ill dm you closer to the event

[brazen lintel]

Ooo, wheres the meetup for the 30th, that'll be my last night in Japan

[cyan gyro]

Havent picked a venue yet @brazen lintel but its open 🙂 itll likely just been some bars/izakayas I know, meeting somewhere in tokyo and traveling around together as a group

[ember knoll]

both could be possible, I'll keep that in mind

[cyan gyro]

24th will have the bigger attendance at this stage most likely

Buth 30th will have a few too so either or

Alternatively Ill still likely probably do abit of an akihabara/nakano tour day for first timers if people are keen

[fickle portal]

Hello, is anyone planning to attend the Red Hot chilli Peppers concert in Tokyo Dome on the 20th of May? Would love to go with someone 🙂

[slim brook]

Heyyoo anyone possibly joining a bar hopping tour on 18th may in tokyo?

[ember knoll]

at first we wanted to go there but then we decided against. guess u wont get any tickets right now anymore

[fervent wolf]

There are still tickets available if you are desperate

[valid hazel]

If you can’t get tickets go to LaQua onsen and hope you’ll hear it from there; it’s on Tokyo dome grounds 😂

Bet that’s what the swifties did

[mild plume]

Anyone considering a baseball game? I'm looking at some in Meiji Jingu, maybe the 28th May

The seating is overwhelming 😓

[fervent wolf]

im going~ which stadium? I went to tokyo dome and was at the very highest level. It was great

[mild plume]

oh man - that looks awesome! I was going to go for Meiji Jingu, apparently its being demolished soon? Probably the opposite of Tokyo Dome experience, one of the oldest stadiums I believe

[fading forum]

Curious

How much did that bento box cost?

[fervent wolf]

hmm i think it was like close to 2000. Over priced but its the same at every sports stadium

[fading forum]

That's fair

[glass mountain]

Are you allowed to bring food from outside at baseball games?

[fervent wolf]

I dont think so. maybe drinks but not food

[wild nimbus]

I've booked tickets for this exact game lol

[mild plume]

😮 how did you end up picking your seats? I was looking at S2

[wild nimbus]

I'll be honest and say that I'm a European who has never watched a full game of baseball in his life, but I think I went with reserved A?

Third base side, reserved A2 it says

I bought it from the Tokyo Swallows website I think

[mild plume]

aha no worries, I'm a british fella currently living in the US so I've gone to a couple, but never been to one in Japan, let me know if you're down for syncing up

I'll probably grab tickets at some point this week

[wild nimbus]

Sure 🙏 I won't be in Tokyo for a few weeks so there's still time

[mild plume]

I'll be around may 10-15th and 24th-30th, I'm pretty set on checking out that stadium so will likely message ya once I got the ticket booked!

[wild nimbus]

Sounds great 😁

[bold moss]

Please change your role to one that isn’t ’In Japan’ if you’re not in Japan get id:customize

[tiny meadow]

Do you have a link to get tickets ?

Apologies for causing confusion

Also now that I've pinged you mr Habo, what are 2Man live shows ? Just a concert with two artists?

I saw that Amaiwana is doing one in May while I'll be in Tokyo

They could be a good segue for you to start liking jazz! 🙂

I regard Steely Dan as one of the best bands of all time.

[stuck gale]

Yes 🙏

Did you need a Japanese mobile number for the tickets? Or does a foreign one work

[fickle portal]

No i didn't. I used mine and it worked. They are selling international now so you won't need a japanese number.

Ahh amazing! I wanted to buy these when they were still doing the lottery but I was all worried so I didn’t go for it in the end

[amber nebula]

Okis

[stuck gale]

How big of an event do you want to make it and and what date are you planning it for?

(Regardless, no one can stop you from making your own thread for it. 🙂 )

[heady lark]

[stuck gale]

Anything I should know about Teamlabs in Minato City, @valid hazel ?

[valid hazel]

No idea; getting on plane

See you guys soon

Minato is planets?

I’ve only been to planets and it smells like feet

Minato might be the new one borderless I’ve never been to

[stuck gale]

Have a good flight, dude!

See you in Japan in a couple weeks!

[neat sinew]

Have a safe flight AUS/NZers leaving soon

Exciting times!

[amber nebula]

Ohhhhh then I’ll just join ! Can I?

[stuck gale]

if we get like 30 people we can just split up into 3 different rooms or something

[amber nebula]

Ok! Imma message that thread

[valid hazel]

See you soon team

[crude abyss]

<@&560861727692947456> any idea why the karaoke thread was locked? It's read only now

[quiet pagoda]

no idea

[untold crystal]

Mods hate karaoke confirmed

[cyan gyro]

No wonderwall? Kareoke is BANNED

[random ginkgo]

No clue

[fervent wolf]

Can it be unlocked?

[quiet pagoda]

depends, how much is it worth to you?

i have to see if there's any discussion on why it was locked, i'll check in to it.. in the future please create a ticket rather than asking in here

[fervent wolf]

Oh didn't know a out ticket. Sure thanks

[quiet pagoda]

it's unlocked, looks like the name change triggerd automod

[untold crystal]

Automods can be sensitive sometimes

[quiet pagoda]

they can't sing karaoke, so it makes em jealous

[fervent wolf]

Ty 😊

[untold crystal]

Gotta be that yeah

[random ginkgo]

Says you locked it yourself

[quiet pagoda]

LMAO

[fervent wolf]

oh yeah looks like the log does say that

Shouldn't be able to lock threads to only mods without permissions to tho

[quiet pagoda]

I think you can lock your own threads

[fervent wolf]

There's no option to lock threads

Anyhow it's fine now thanks

[untold crystal]

I've gotta test that now

[quiet pagoda]

@random ginkgo campo thought we were bored so he's just giving us work to do

[fervent wolf]

[neat sinew]

Everyone make it out of the airports alive?

You guys should have seen it, bypassing a rail gate with my JR pass only to realize my dumbass went the wrong way.

Grabbing a sim for my phone then jumping on the narita express with no 4g setup yet...

Nearly ripping my nail out and bleeding out

And now sitting in priority seating on the narita express heading into shimibashi...

[stuck gale]

Why did U almost rip your nail out?

[neat sinew]

I DON'T KNOW... I LOOKED DOWN AND IT WAS BLEEDING HAHAHA

I'm an hour out from Osaka and was thinking Hiroshima but I can bump it. You wanna be tourists?

[amber socket]

Anyone going to the XG concert in Yokohama on the 25th?

[cyan gyro]

Didnt know they had a show on, tempting

[amber socket]

I didn't either until Sunday night. Yokohama tickets are first come first serve right now. Also, getting Japanese concert tickets is complicated. It will be my first concert in Japan.

Ticket sales end on the 30th I think? Or until they run out.

[prime bolt]

Oh shit. HMMMMM that is very intriguing.

[lucid wedge]

Anyone want to go to a Giants baseball game on May 1 ?

[fervent wolf]

I arrive at 9pm :/

I'm going to the baseball ok Friday night

Actually nevermind damn I didn't buy tickets fast enough

They are sold out on the giants website

[lucid wedge]

Is that the May 3 game?

[fervent wolf]

Yeah

[shrewd owl]

Any fellow Catholics here who regularly attend Sunday mass, particularly in Tokyo? I would like to attend services at St. Mary's Cathedral during my trip in the 2nd half of May.

[fervent wolf]

Im a christian. Haven't thought of going along to a church service. I did see a few events on meetup for things tho

[lean karma]

Ola, me and a few mates are gonna be at Okinawa from 1/5-7/5 if anyone is interested to join us let us know. From Aus 🙂

[lucid wedge]

Yea RIP 😢

I might see if I can buy the May 1 tickets then

[fervent wolf]

I decided I'm gonna go watch the soccer instead on Friday

Fans get excited. Lots of cheering/chants. I'm sitting in the home section for Tokyo fc 😄

Should be a good time 😁

Also anyone in Tokyo May 02 - May 04 and wanna hangout I'm there then

Bought a ticket right after I sent that

[misty lantern]

I will be there from the 14th to the 19th sorry :/

2 more weeks for me 🙂

Just another lil reminder for everyone in Tokyo on the 7th #1233245954958688338

Hahaha just a little tough

I bought tickets to the game on May 1 btw - in case anyone is still keen

[heady lark]

will be landing may 3 in the afternoon

in tokyo

[cyan gyro]

May 8th in the afternoon, for a month, needs to hurry up

[sleek hinge]

May 4th I land 🤩

[brazen lintel]

Land on the 8th as well

[glass mountain]

You all avoiding golden week also? 7th here 😂

[fervent wolf]

Golden week is the bessst. I arrive Wednesday night 😁

[brazen lintel]

Apparently Tokyo will be chill during golden week?

[indigo crescent]

I thought golden week is one of the busiest times of the year

[arctic inlet]

It is busy, but if you stay put in one city (like Tokyo) it’s not too bad

Usually the problem is transport
Shinkansen can be booked up, airports busy, etc.

[bold moss]

It’s kinda true but not really

People leave to go travelling, so residential areas end up quieter

but the people who stay still go to tourist spots within the city which end up crowded

so as a tourist you get no relief

[arctic inlet]

Yeah if you do stuff like Hakone or Kamakura during golden week, I assume that’d be hell

[brazen lintel]

Going Hakone on the 13th. Hopefully it isn't too bad

[carmine blade]

already way past

[prime bolt]

Golden Week is literally this week - you'll be fine

[verbal spear]

Flying out tomorrow 🙂

[carmine blade]

may is a day (or two) away

lets goooooo

[fading forum]

If only there was a neighborhood that wasn't as filled with tourists that had good cafes, curry, and music....

[balmy oracle]

Hello all! my itinerary is:

Tokio 10-13, Osaka 13-15, Kyoto 15-18, Tokio 18-19.

Open to any random plan

[half pollen]

How is it nearly may already? Landing on the 11th, staying in Shinjuku until the 15th, then taking a few days in Nikko to go hiking, before heading back to Asakusa until the 24th!
Keeping the itinerary pretty chill (this is trip number 2 so I want to leave a lot more time for just wandering around Tokyo) so very up for whatever plans

[half pollen]

Planning on attending the first day of the festival at Toshogu shrine in Nikko on Friday 17th (apparently there is horseback archery), and do the Saturday (18th) of Sanja Matsuri at Sensoji temple. Aside from those two days everything else is pretty flexible.
Travelling solo so if anyone else was thinking about checking out Sanja Matsuri and wanted to meet up then totally up for that 😊

[crude abyss]

Damn, if I were closer to Nikko I would be tempted to join, but 5 hours with the train from Osaka...

[half pollen]

Ouch, yeah, that's a bit much!

[gentle parrot]

guys wondering is it better going around in the day with a sling bag or a backpack?

[arctic inlet]

Lighter is always better

[gentle parrot]

so sling

[gentle parrot]

what did you carry during the day?

[arctic inlet]

Either nothing or a daybag / backpack

[crude abyss]

Plastic bag for trash, water bottle, passport and wallet, powerbank and phone

Essentials 🙂

[gentle parrot]

what about a backpack like this?

[arctic inlet]

Basically all that but jammed into my pockets

[gentle parrot]

too much?

its a backpack i got from former trips but its big

[crude abyss]

I got this one for wallet, passport and powerbank

[gentle parrot]

heard its a good one

[arctic inlet]

My daybag is like 12l
But I only bring it if I absolutely need it

[gentle parrot]

i got a camera thats why i am asking xD

i need a sling that fits a kinda small camera

xD

i would get Aer but shipping is too long and i am flying out next week

what about when you shop?

israel

i could probably buy a sling in tokyo when i get there

[crude abyss]

Camera is separate

in a camera bag 😄

[gentle parrot]

then you carry 2 bags xD

[crude abyss]

Yeah... that sounds unreasonable, I havent gone yet though, Im just planing ahead 😄

[gentle parrot]

got ya

[carmine blade]

depends where you going

just bring whatever you need

if its gonna need you to bring a bag just bring it idk

[gentle parrot]

i thought about when shopping the bag can be storage until it fills

cause shopping alot and then carrying it across town doesnt seem comfortable

[carmine blade]

yup

[crude abyss]

carry 25kg to the hotel late evening

😄

I love turkish airlines

they gave me 2x 28kg checked in baggage

and I only need one

so Ill buy a used suitcase in Japan for all the shit Im taking with me

[cyan gyro]

either way if you can Id just buy it day 1 in tokyo

youll get a better price and youll be able to pick what you want

Im a porter yoshida fan personally

[indigo crescent]

I’m a big fan of aer bags as well I’ll be using the day sling 3

[cyan gyro]

7 days and some change until my trip so time to start the gradual pack

[bold moss]

Deciding which waifu to bring I see

[cyan gyro]

((the answer would be misato))

hahaha

Sister knitted it for me for my bday, didnt know where to put it so goji got the straw hat drip

[stuck gale]

That’s a nice display case.

[cyan gyro]

Ikea bror, they dont sell em anymore (theres a new better version) but theyre great

this is my 'small collection' as my main collection is in storage

Couldnt be bothered unpacking it all when we moved only to move again at the end of the year

[lavish citrus]

Small collection... wow

[cyan gyro]

Sorry the comments lined up weird, the previous image was my small collection

that one is my main, im not insane, yet

[lavish citrus]

Oh I see. Not insane yet but it's still wow 🤩

[wet knoll]

I was at the Sensoji temple during my last visit. Sanja Matsuri festival sounds like a wonderful experience. I will be around on 18th. What is a good time to be there? Day time or evening?

I've still got ten days to go and I can barely function - just keep getting distracted by adding ideas to my itinerary. It's actually kind of pathetic!

And I'm on my way

I’m fucked up rn ngl

too many drinks

or maybe not too many since I can tell I’m drunk 💀

"Omg I'm so drunk"-drunk is infinitely better than "what do you mean I'm drunk? I'm sober, you're the drunk one"-drunk

Sang super overpriced karaoke for a few hours
