Apologies for my extreme lack of activity here as of late. My studies have been keeping me busy, alongside other side projects and conventions. I also went on a trip to Tokyo that I have been planning for a long time, and thought I'd share some photos:
Shot of Tokyo taken from Tokyo Tower
Akihabara, the center of all that is nerdy!
Went to Tokyo Dome to see the live Sentai show.
Ghibli museum.
A cel of Patty found in Nakano Broadway.
Some more Maple Town among other things.
If you're looking for used goods, Nakano Broadway is really THE place to visit! I bought a "Maple Town Series 1" display backer for a gachapon machine. There was not a lot of Maple Town-related things, but it was good to see that it has not been completely forgotten. Especially since the humongous amount of products that Japan is continually putting out is quite overwhelming.
This was my first time in Japan. It certainly lived up to my expectations and surpassed them! I wish I could have stayed longer and seen more of it than just Tokyo. Hopefully in the future.
