Tokyo Diary part 2
OKAY ready for part 2? today was even better than yesterday x3~!
Nothing beats a healthy breakfast. chocolate bun x3.
Because the Mandarake was closed yesterday, i decided to come again today. and while doing so, i took some more pictures of Akihabara, trying to catch this overwhelming geekiness. IT'S LIKE A HUGE ANIME CONVENTION, NOT EVEN KIDDING!
and finally, the glorious mandarake! 8 floors full of nerdy stuff *w*~~!!
there was a freaking line to get into the store, wtf.
FFFHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! .... fhhhhhh. hhh. fh. Okay, alright, i got this xD. this was on the second floor and adsoflkfcsc gawd, so awesome. mandarake is like a dream come true, really xD but it was so freaking overwhelming, i didn't buy a single thing. lol. they had yaoi doujinshi for 100 yen ea. GAWD. i MIGHT have to go there again. lol. i think that technically you weren't allowed to take any pictures, but i just HAD to take a picture of this lol...
one of the many ufo catcher arcades. man, i suck at those games. royally.
i wanted an espeon so badly TwT...
yeah i was like O______o that's a lot of gashapon machines you have there.
vending machine picture request~ there you go, buns :D
box of shame lol. i wish we had something like this in germany. put all smokers in a box xD.
one word: GROSS!!!!!!! like, really. didn't know those still existed. grooooooooss.
after my second visit to akihabara, i went to ueno :3 ... i wanted to check out ueno park and the yanaka cemetery (because i'm a sucker for cemeteries.)
so.many.ppl. i'm kinda scared of shibuya crossing now.
finally: the park x3!! so big and pretty and full of people xD.
stone lantern *w*.
i took a break here and sat down on the side of the road. and that's when my first major WTF-moment happened:
so this old guy comes up to me and sits down next to me. he starts a conversation, asking me where i'm from and what i'm doing here and if i'm all alone, etc... all in english, mind you. i thought he was pretty nice, so i talked to him for a while. AND THEN... then, he asks me if i wanted to come with him to a FREAKING LOVE HOTEL down the street. ..................................................................... lol.
my first shisa x3!!!
idk... really xD.
so i left ueno park behind and made my way through yanaka's backstreets. pretty backstreets x3.
random pretty house *w*
aaaaand here it is: yanaka cemetery. does not really look like a cemetery, yeah. |D
there we go x3.
this place was so pretty and atmospheric, i could have stayed hours x3!
remains of the famous 5-story-pagoda, which was burned down in a double suicide of two romeo and juliet like lovers. *w* also notice the playground in the background. seems that cemeteries in japan aren't all solemn and quiet. they're more like a place of relaxation x3.
BEST PART: the cemetery cats *W*~~~!!! there were a bunch of stray cats hidden beneath the tomb stones *w*!! most were too quick for me to take a picture of them, but i got SOME!! x3 there were even people feeding and petting the cats, it was heartwarming x3.
then it got dark and i had to go back. because there's not much to do after dark, all temples and shrines close down and i'm not into partying at all... so xD... i got dinner at 'makkudo' x3.
view from my subway station x3.
JAPAN IS MADE OF CUTE AND PRETTY!! even the gully covers are!!!
and this is what i bought today x3! i wanted to find an alpacasso, but since that didn't work, i figured, i should compensate-buy some pokemon stuff. EMOLGA fhhh x3.
and that's for day 3. already excited about tomorrow~ x3!!
