We then went to Namba station and walked to Dotonbori.
We didn’t really have a proper plan for today, so we just walked around aimlessly, getting the feel for the city. We went to a couple of shops, but I haven’t bought anything. I’m such a picky buyer, unless something literally sings to my soul I’m not buying anything… Not sure if good or bad thing.
We went to a fancy cafe and I got a weird ice cream matcha latte thing. Was very messy to eat/drink, so didn’t like it too much. There was some woman sitting on the left from us, looking bored. After a while, a guy came over and started talking to her, and she didn’t reply to anyone, and just sat there grumpily. The guy stopped talking after a while and just used his phone for a while. I think he was late, or something. Eventually they just left without speaking.
Secure. Contain. Protect.
We continued walking in random directions, and accidentally ended up almost going to Denden town. We saw the arcade building, and decided to go there. We played the piano arcade thing for some time. I would enjoy arcades much more if I could actually hear the music… I need wired headphones for this.
█████████████ stood in like for a fancy cheesecake place. It was tasty, though definitely not worth standing like 20 minutes in line. Flavor kinda reminded me of Farina (apparently its called that in English), although in bread form.
Since we’ve had reservation for fancy unagi place soon, and we got tired after standing and walking a lot, we’ve decided to go back to hotel and chill for a bit. While in the hotel, I realized I confused the hours and it was actually happening like 3 hours after I initially thought… Regret… Couldve went to the aquarium instead.
We went back to Namba at night, and it was a completely different experience. I also forgot my camera, and it felt quite different to walk around. More present I guess, as I didn’t have to look out for the cool photos all the time.
The streets were much more lively and full. I liked it muchhh more than in morning. It was just more fun to hang out. We sat by the river while waiting for the reservation.
We went to the fancy restaurant, and it was actually almost completely empty, so we didn’t really need a reservation at all brah. We got to watch eel being fried in front of us, but it wasn’t something particularly spectacular.
I then tried it, and it was tasty, but not some godly taste I was told about? Idk why I felt this way. Definitely wouldn’t do it over again for such price.

We walked past a bunch of gachapons, and for the first time I got actually interested in them. I fucking loveeee miniature electronics, so I reallyyy wanted to get a bunch of stuff. I got scammed by one of the gachapons, it just ate my coins and didn’t give anything back.
Also I thought this would be a real slot machine, but it’s literally just an image on a clip. I got fucking juggled by the juggler.
We walked back home on the foot. It was a nice walk.
