Woke up feeling literally hangover. Apparently, I ended up sleeping 12 hours. Still, I felt so tired. Took us almost 2 hours to get up and leave.
The cold tea from yesterday is completely different from what I usually drink at home. Not sweet at all. It’s really interesting and not bad. The chips were just boring I guess. Not anything special, chips are chips everywhere, I guess.
I love the area around our apartment so much. It’s so lively and green. We’ve commuted to Akihabara. With the fresh head, it wasn’t too difficult to figure out where to go this time.
We met █████████████ here, ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
While walking through Akiba, I felt a bit odd. When you’re making a «Go through Akihabara» a point in your iternary, and then you start just kinda walking around, it feels quite difficult to actually find something that you’re supposed to do properly check it off your list. Hard to explain the feeling.
We went through a few anime stores. Nothing really interested me that much, but it was still cool to see.
After that we went into an arcade. I really wanted to play Taiko no Tatsujin because a song from Cranky is there (VICTORIA). We actually ended up playing it, but the place was so loud it’s difficult to actually hear the song, which left a little disappointed. We also really bombed the song. I also played some piano rhythm game, and it was pretty fun. Night of Knights is way too good of a song.
When we got out, we tried to get a cute Miku figurine, but of course the machine was rugged.
I bought a cute Nuko tshirt. Well, █████████████ bought it too. Good design is a good design.
We then went to the Figure tower. Apparently they had that figurine, lol. I ended up buying it.
They also had a very cute Homura figurine, and after a lot of hesitation I ended up buying it too. I don’t really like figurines that much, but it was hard to resist and I like the fact that they’re of sitting type so you can put them in a lot of places where they wouldn’t take much space.
We went to the pachinko parlor because I wanted to find the Madoka slot machine. It was actually hell in there. So loud and filled with people. We walked through there for 2 minutes before getting out. There was a lot of Madoka posters, but barely any Madoka-themed machines.
We went to buy a luggage to the Yodobashi building. Man, that was painful to pick. Also, today I found out that at some airports you luggage can be destroyed just because it looks «too rich» from █████████████. So we went through a ton of them, until we found the one that looked the good size while being sturdy.
We then ate afterwards. I ate buckwheat noodles for the first time - they’re quite similar to normal noodles, honestly. The soup is really good, but as always, very salty.
We went to the Book Off store afterwards, but it really had nothing interesting. After that we’ve decided to separate for now to rest, and meet up later at night again.
I heard about Famichiki a few times, so I had to try it. It’s really, really good. I can’t believe this is actually «Chicken, Japan» moment. So juicy. We sort of just rested for a while in the apartment. After like 2 hours, █████████████ said he’s too tired and that we aren’t going to meet today afterall.
We wanted to go to a sushi place, but it was full. So we ended up going to a random… Nepalese restaurant. Yeah, kinda weird to go to one in Japan I guess. But it smelled really good on the steet, so we’ve decided whatever. The food was good.
