[ocean timber]

hey y'all! I'm planning on going to clubs in Shibuya tomorrow night, anyone else game? no real plans yet, but I've been recommended to go to jumanji 33/atom but if there are better recs let me know too

[ocean timber]

or honestly bar hopping wherever, I just would want to experience some nightlife while speaking 0 japanese lol

[hollow needle]

google reviews for jumanji aint good

[ocean timber]

yeah I saw, that's why I'm looking up new places now, I've heard of tourists getting into trouble so I'd like to stick to the less shady stuff

[hollow needle]

ive heard others mention womb/warp

they also have good rating

[silent dome]

Warp is shit

Ask @dreamy fog for reccs

[dreamy fog]

Warp is absolute ASS

At least go to Zero Tokyo next door, have some respect for yourself

https://www.reddit.com/r/JapanTravel/comments/1e2u25w/a_music_lovers_guide_to_tokyo_nightclubs/

[ocean timber]

sounds good, would y'all recommend going to local bars or clubs? I've heard stuff like golden gai is decent too?

[dreamy fog]

See above link

Golden Gai is just full of tourists, kinda boring and not representative of Tokyo nightlife

https://tokyonightowl.com/alternatives-to-shinjukus-golden-gai/

[ocean timber]

gotcha

anyone down to go out tomorrow? we can figure out where to go when we do but I'll be near Shibuya/Shinjuku in the evening so preferably in that area.

tysm habo!

[hollow needle]

i wouldve been but got a work event tomorrow

[silent dome]

Go to local izakayas of course don’t go to shit like the hub and also golden gai sucks

[dreamy fog]

I'm going to a couple of gigs tomorrow evening

First https://www.ddinstagram.com/p/C9UAScaSQT1/

Then (all night) (I can get everyone discount entry for this one)
https://www.ddinstagram.com/p/C8E9fWPyvpz

[dreamy fog]

My least favourite word is 'might' but yeah let me know!

[silent rock]

[hot elk]

Anyone? Kyoto lunch? 😄

[rare kettle]

You have already recovered? My place is in Shibuya if you still wanna hangout

[haughty stream]

Just a heads up that it was pretty dead yday. I saw maybe 30 concurrent attendees.

The venue setup is nice and they do give you free fans + coke, but I expected a lot more people. If you like the music lineup though, by all means 😃

[stable osprey]

Ahh I’m gonna drop in at 1600 and see wassup since I wanna hit the Jins in Shibuya

[stable osprey]

I woke up still drunk and I’m just meandering through my day right now

[rare kettle]

Oh damn. No hangover?

[haughty stream]

It's crazy hot today. Anyone down to chill + do some shopping at Azubudai Hills? Saw this vid from the Paolo guy yday and it seems comfy (and most importantly, air conditioned lol)

They have an intense matcha drink I'd love to try 🫖

https://youtu.be/Vq5vSQWll4o

[stable osprey]

No hangover yet lmao

[rare kettle]

Well. Meandering throught the town in this heat might be good detox as long as you get enough hydration 😎

[stable osprey]

I’m in line at Ramen Kai in Kuramae, couldn’t wait til Shibuya, gonna chug a Pocari Sweat after too

Pocari Sweat is the exact thing you want. Get a couple of those

Anyone in Osaka want to go out tonight?

[round blaze]

I'm down later in the evening

[wide cloud]

Yo Tokyo sort your stuff out man. wtf is with shinjuku station

London Underground could never

[strong tapir]

Haha shinjuku station giving us anxiety

[wide cloud]

Bruh I just want the Yamamoto line or whatever. The green one

Why is there not just an entrance? Feels like it could be smack bang in the middle of a 7/11 for all I know

[dreamy fog]

Follow the signs for JR

The key to navigating big stations is knowing the train operator of the line you want, and going to that operator's part of the station

Yes it's uninituitve at first. But that's how it works

[eager kindle]

Also always check which platform number for the train you want

you don't want to go the other way around like almost happened to me with keisei line, wanna get to nippori, almost went to aoto

[wide cloud]

Good advice so JR = the one I want?

[dreamy fog]

For the Yamanote Line yes

[wide cloud]

Thank you Habo 🥰

[frail roost]

Done done im in namba south, what time were you thinking

[round blaze]

Around 8?

[eager kindle]

Heading to Yodobashi Akiba if anyone want to meet up and explore or smth.

Almost the same number of people use shinjuku station every day as the whole entire london underground so...

[strong tapir]

Are there Royce chocolates being sold @ KIX?

[astral panther]

Anyone going to the festival market tonight in kyoto?

[haughty stream]

Yes I think I remember seeing them when I was flying from KIX to CTS a few weeks ago. Royce is generally found at all JP airports, although hard to find outside of Hokkaido proper.

One exception is this store in Tokyo: Hokkaido Dosanko Plaza "Yurakucho store"

I think there is a Royce popup scheduled for this upcoming week in Tokyo though, but it's buried in their JP website.

[mellow atlas]

I miss the Horai pop-ups

Fuck, they probably don’t open until too late in the morning, I’d love to grab Horai before my flight.

[haughty stream]

Horai is extremely tasty, finished a six pack while waiting at CTS

Ah found it! Next Royce event in Tokyo is at:

Hankyu Department Store Oi Food Hall from 2024/07/24 to 2024/07/30

buried so deep in their website lol

[mellow atlas]

Kansai airport branch opens 11AM, flight is 11:25… I wonder if it’s before or after security

[haughty stream]

The Horai? I think at KIX it's before security

[mellow atlas]

Rip

I could probably make it but not sure I want to chance that window

Shame they don’t open at like 10

[haughty stream]

yea not worth, the lines at Horai can get long

[quick haven]

If no consensus is met on restaurant of choice I may begin izakaya hopping

She haven’t respond it might just be me and the boys eating meat tonight

[outer agate]

This city's culture is so reserved and closed-in with its cliques and friend groups

So I'm always a little astounded when a tourist actually lands a date

[dreamy fog]

Gaijin hunters are real...

[silent dome]

Landing the date is the easiest part of the process

[silent dome]

^

Better to find someone who is actually interested in you, rather than just being interested in you because you are a foreigner lol

[outer agate]

This seems pretty accurate

Feels like 70% of the battle is just stepping out of my comfort zone into a place where I can meet people

[silent dome]

You’re visiting Tokyo it’s absolutely massive, just think of it as 99.9% of these people you will never see again

[outer agate]

Thanks for the pep bro. Now to lumber around some Izakayas

You are literally in the meetup channel

Just ask

That was actually pretty wild, I didn't expect the wind to be that strong

We're in Shinjuku

Torikizoku

Join us

[mellow atlas]

Go to Akabane tomorrow

Just had a drunk guy call me a friend the moment I walked in the door and introduce me to all the other people there

Akabane is definitely the 日本語 meta, hardly any tourists cause they don’t know about it

The Yokocho there is great, lots of awesome choices, there’s a sweet live venue if you want to catch some music before drinking, etc.

I’m going to ping you so you see all this @outer agate

[keen ivy]

Are people still in Shinjuku?

[knotty remnant]

I’m aimlessly walking around

[keen ivy]

We’re gonna have a big one tonight

[knotty remnant]

It’s so quiet

[keen ivy]

Is anyone else out drinking? We’re gonna go to a club or something

[knotty remnant]

I just got back. Ended up talking to a bartender for ages about conspiracy theories lol

[outer agate]

Thanks I will do so, @midnight hawk also suggested I do this yesterday

When I said I wanted to meet older Japanese women

(as a joke) (or is it)

[midnight hawk]

I was half joking.

But you really do see more older women(and older men) drinking in the commuter hubs like Akabane, Nakano, Koiwa, Etc. Drinks are cheaper there and closer to locals residences, so it just makes sense you'll meet more working adults.

Not to say young people aren't drinking there as well

Akabane and Nakano both had a lot of young people when I went around there

[outer agate]

Nice, very good to know. It sounds like a place ripe for the authentic bar experience

I haven't even looked into the driver's license requirement

I have one from back home but the rules of the road here seem quite different from there

I'm talking like the road etiquette among drivers. I don't wanna unintentionally be a nuisance to these drivers lol

You need an International Driver's Permit

[echo dagger]

And to rent I think u need to be at least 30

When is the event

if you do go to Daikoku PA sunday morning is best, or 6/7pm on friday/sat evenings. Police tends to close it down from 9pm weekend nights

I am walking around Shibuya rn anyone down to grab some drinks?

[pine vector]

i can but in about a hour...

[echo dagger]

Sure I am just walking around the area near the crossing. Have no idea which bars are any good but the atmosphere is so much nicer than SHINJUKU so I don’t mind just looking around

[outer agate]

The one underneath the tracks?

[pine vector]

[echo dagger]

[silent dome]

Who in osaka

[late swan]

Does anyone know a good izakaya in shibuya? Im a beginner with drinking places in tokyo and heard a lot of horror stories about getting scammed lol

[silent dome]

The only time a scam ever happens is if you follow some random person into a random place… get it out of your head. There are many great izakayas in shibuya. You will not be scammed. Try meeting up with someone in this chat, that will probably ease your worries

If it’s your first first time honestly go to torikizoku lol

Tablet ordering with English and cheap food

[dreamy fog]

The Torikizokus in Shibuya are usually full and you have to queue up for a long time

[silent dome]

There’s 2 that always have seats

I don’t know the locations on maps just know them by memory while being in shibuya

Also easier if you are hitori or futari

But most have queues yes

[grizzled pulsar]

Who is in Osaka

[fallen dune]

Hi, I’m currently in Osaka, but will only be here for one more day. Looking to see if anyone would be interested in meeting up to talk (preferably in English). I’ve had zero communication here so far and it’s honestly been really sad and depressing.

[silent dome]

[silent dome]

[strong thorn]

[flint osprey]

For sure, 730 at Hachiko we're meeting

Aight. See you there.

[rare crown]

[shell canyon]

In Osaka tonight if any other 30+ are interested in going mild with me.

[charred beacon]

Just boarded my plane to Tokyo, see y'all soon ✌️

[sour lily]

Warp tonight anyone ?

[verbal beacon]

Swimming at the Meguro-ku Citizen's Centre Pool?

[fallen dune]

That sounds super fun, are foreigners allowed to swim too?

[dreamy fog]

It would be an international scandal if they couldn't

[fallen dune]

Wdym?

[dreamy fog]

Any time someone finds a 'no foreigners' sign in Japan, it gets shared all over social media as an example of Japan being racist

Bad enough when it's placed there by one random business owner. Would be even worse for a local governing body
