>>138604317
I have questions.

- How do you manage your trash in there ? there's no trashcan right, should I bring it to hotel ?
- Whats the best way to get temporary internet service for your phone ?
- Should I bother with prepaid train ticket or it's more effective to just buy it normally ?
>>
>>138604377
The average Japanese woman weights 52.3kg (115lbs). A girl will of course weigh less.
Even without being in particularly good shape, you should be able to pick up and carry that much weight for a short distance.

Fucking hate faggots like this. Have you ever fucked a normal Southeast Asian woman before? Jacking yourself off feels 5 times better than fucking one of them. They just lay there like a dead fish while you fuck away, they have the sexual skill of a potato. Hookers are the way to go, they're professionals. Plus, all pussy feels the same.
>>
>>138604555
been there 2 years ago
1- none outside, but inside most place have them
2- ask your company for the japan partner (or oversea promotions) or simple go to internet café and use their wifi
3- buy it normally
if you stay in tokyo, just use the trains
if you want to go to any major city without paying a lot, use intercity bus

You'll 'probably' be fine. Watch your money though, it won't last long if you are on a short fuse when it comes to buyfaggotry.
>>
>>138604534
I am bad at this.

There is one main street, very bright and were most of the main stores are.
Then there is a parallel one, with more shady stores and second-hand shops, also full of maids/schoolgirls promoting their shops. You shouldn't pay much attention to them, they are like predators looking for their prey.
There is Love Live shit literally everywhere.
Despite the relatively small size of it you can go days without checking all the shops.
It's mostly Otaku heaven nowadays, but you can see some of the old Akihabara between the alleys and in not so easily visible shops.
Lot of old people selling electronic appliances, PC parts, and so on.
>>138604555
That has literally nothing to do with Akihabara but I will bite.

There are trashcans, usually near dispenser machines.
If you have a SIM free phone, you can buy SIM cards that provide you with a few GB and you can recharge them with your credit card if they run out. You can also rent a phone in Japan but it isn't as cheap, look it out.
No idea of what you are talking about here, the JR Pass?
>>
>>138605102
>That has literally nothing to do with Akihabara but I will bite

Of course it does, you faggot.
>>
>>138604669
I don't check much of that. Pretty sure the Don Quixote here has an entire section dedicated to Tenga.

Maid's cafes are hit or miss depending on the girls attending.
They are more enjoyable with friends and if your knowledge of Japanese is above average.
Always good to watch the girls in cute uniforms and their futomomo, though.

There's no way she won't find out. The moment you leave the station, it's anime everywhere. Mega sex shop right down the road and blaring Love Live! music from nearby shops. The buildings are covered top to bottom with anime ads.

Not OP, but I went to a maid cafe in Akiba after getting shitfaced with a friend in Odaiba.
Went up the elevator to stop on the second floor, looked pretty normal. Was told we're going third instead. Dim place sort of place with strobe lights and music. The best part was that there was a group of 6 Japanese businessmen, aged between 22-60, all wearing animal ear headgear.

I couldn't really believe it when one of the guys started saying "nyaa" at the end of everything sentence for about 20 minutes.

My friend (who is sort of a closet otaku) turns to me and says "If these guys can have no shame in their love for anime and all things moe, then I won't either"
>>
>>138606289
I don't want her to know I like anime, I don't want anyone to know I like anime, that's why I'm on an anonymous image board.

>>138605765
I always stay at Toyoko Inns in Japan because they're everywhere, they're cheap and basic (basically intended for businessmen) but you're not supposed to spend much time in your room anyway.
>>
>>138606183
>>138606219
They are all rigged, you have to work out the count by watching others and then wait until the the right time and then use it.
Basically every crane machine has a set number of fails before it will succeed, if it is 20 then you wait until someone else failed at it 19 times and then you go up and try at the 20th time.

I think slot machines are similar.
>>
>>138606390
You think people who like trains or something wouldn't make train noises or something whether or not they were in a group? It's the same shit, people who like anime don't have to be put in some mystical category.

Maybe I am a cheap fuck but I don't see the point in paying for an expensive hotel.
You are there to only crash after all, rest of the time should be spend outside exploring Tokyo.
>>
>>138606689
Cranes and slot machines are also designed to be really addictive with flashing lights, noises and lots of other shit to keep your playing.
Slot machines are the biggest money makers in Vegas.

I think a lot of MMORPGs use the same mind games as those machines.

Man, I was there and it was REALLY cold. Like, I had gloves and even gloves weren't working with all the snow and wind. The ground was basically frozen, melted, then re-frozen, rince and repeat. You'd pay attention to your every step. Especially in the evening/night where you lose all the warmth.

- Go to Game center, probably to play Kancolle Arcade.
- Go to animate, toranoana, etc.
- Go to sex toys shop ( any reccomendation ? )
- Theatre if there's anything good showing.

Anything else I should add ?
>>
>>138603921
Kind of overrated, but if you spend enough time and get lucky you can have a good time and find some cool shit. And unless you're used to big cities Tokyo in general can feel really oppressive.

Kyoto is just better, and Teramachi's kind of like a little version of Akiba.

Looks like a Toyoko Inn.

Petty comfy and reasonable price for a single room in Tokyo, but there are much better options.

Small hostels that mainly cater to Japanese travelers are always the best, in my opinion. $25-30/night usually very close to a train station, in-house meals are cheap and delicious, the owners are almost always cool as fuck and are fun to drink with and shooting the shit with them, and you generally don't have to deal with cringy fucking weeaboos and Australians. The only challenge is you need to speak a bare minimum of Japanese.

In my experience, quite a bit. More than in Zurich/Vienna at least. The escorts 'officially' only do blowjobs so you have to pay them more to actually fuck them, be sure to check what they're willing to do before ordering (actual penetration is illegal as such)
Also try Soaplands, they're fun but not all let gaijin in.
I've blown like two thousand bucks on escorts at my last visit, so it can get pricey, but it's fun.

Was military stationed in Tokyo at first, but went back a few times for vacation and work.

It can be a lot of fun to go alone if you can speak the language, plan ahead, and keep an adventurous spirit. I spent a summer backpacking Hiroshima, Tokushima and Wakayama. Was never bored because I would just go out and look for fun shit to do. Met a lot of cool people, hiked a lot of mountains, took a lot of pictures, and drank a lot of beer.

Not at all, mid-twenties mostly. Younger even, and younger still if you go to some club and get laid. Pretty sure one of them was like, barely 16. But it's hard to tell with them.
What I've found is that at first they're a little bit nervous around whites, the way normal people are around negroes, but then it turns into curiosity and/or excitement once they realize we're not gonna rape and/or kill them.

For me, I would spend a week or two in every location and take a train to the next. I had a backpack to carry all my day-to-day stuff and a few changes of clothes, and a larger piece of luggage for I'd mail to each new location via takyuubin service (either the post office or kuroneko company). I'd stay in mostly Japanese hostels and make reservations to each new place online a week ahead. It's pretty easy to make reservations because there are a shit ton of reservation service sites you can google.
Other than that, pack light and use the larger luggage as a storage for extra clothes and souvenirs and such. It's not hard to talk to people on your travels-- because most of them are going to come up and want to talk to you, first.

Aside from that, read up on places you think you'd like to go to, don't be afraid to talk to people and try new things on the fly, and try not to get overwhelmed by the freedom that comes with traveling alone.

Also, Japan sucks for public wifi, but Starbucks has easy access. Also this public wifi service called 'Wi2"will overcharge you to hell on the english site, but the Japanese site gives monthly access for about 5 bucks and is pretty reliable.

Absolutely.

Much shorter work days than the city (though with more physical work), hole-in-the-wall cheap yakitori bars in the evening, lots of natural beauty in the mountains to behold, farmer jiisans and baasans are friendly and based as fuck in all ways and are completely incoherent even if you are reasonably fluent, QT college girls (and boys) living with you,-- all of them are prime wife material, plenty of spooky ass haikyo ghost adventures, country-side cooking is hearty and amazing...

Spoilering because blogshit.
We got really drunk and started hitting on girls with our broken Japanese in the red light district, Shinjuku I think, not too sure. That actually didn't turn out well, but just like moment later some uni/high school girls approached us and asked if we wanted to pay them. Surprisingly they only asked for 8000 yen, which is practically nothing. We agreed, took the girls to a motel and fucked (kinda like an orgy party). If I remember correctly they weren't too ugly, but they seemed like runaways from home because they were a bit dirty and smelly at first. A quick shower took care of it tjough. You could say we were very lucky. I don't have fantasy love stories to tell you how I lost my virginity but yeah, this is how I lost it. Kind of regretting it now. It's not the best thing imaginable.

Rural farm stays. Seek out the ones run by groups of young Japanese people sick of the overworked salaryman/OL culture.

You wake up with the sun, put in a hard 6-10 hours work outdoors to revitalize Japan's dwindling farm sector, make good money, and have everything generally provided for you.

Anytime you miss the city, you can hop on a nightbus with your QTJapanese tomboy girlfriend and spend a weekend goofing around.

>>138611039
There's lots of retro games stores, prices vary depending on rarity and whether there's mint packaging and stuff. But most common games you can get super cheap.
There are cafes and stuff that have NESes set up you can play, those are comfy.
Bookstores are everywhere, you don't have to go to Akiba to get LNs, there's like a Book Off on every corner or Kinokuniya if you want a bigger Borders-style store.

Retro games seems to be really cheap, you can find a lot of them for the equivalent of a euro

You nigs realize that you don't walk around with a sticker on your forehead that says "VIRGIN" right? When I started dating it felt a lot more important to be able to develop a relationship with a chick. The sex itself is far less important than getting to that point naturally. Paying money for sex is like having someone else do your homework.

Guys who go to whores act much more like virgins that guys who have a lot of friends but haven't had sex for whatever reason.

All over the place.. there's the big Sega places, and then you have the smaller arcades that can be found near pretty much any arcade station, that mostly have a few games, street fighter, initial d, etc plus a bunch of crane games and printclub machines up front for all the girls.

Yeah, there are import sections in some of the stores, those are the kind of things you'd have to go to Akiba or Nakano Broadway to find probably.

You never really see the manga style delinquents, it's mostly just a pack of ordinary highschool kids giggling and eating potato chips and stuff, or bored workers on their lunchbreak.

No QTs for you.

But seriously, you can start with sites/companies like WWOOFJapan. Once you get there, you build connections and ask around about opportunities in other prefectures like Nagano and Wakayama. Lots of younger farmers in Nagano, especially, who are there because they love skiing/snowboarding.

Knowing the language will make the difference in opening doors between working on some stange old man's pumpkin patch in absolute nowhere, and working in a small city with a bunch of QTs.

Went to Akiba and Nakano Broadway last month. Akiba has a shit ton of volume but it's mostly newer stuff in terms of seasonal anime goods, although you can still find Nanoha shit everywhere and of course robots galore. Prices on good can get kind of high depending on the store and it is a bit tourist trapy even saw these two fags with furry tails.

Nakano is smaller but you can find older stuff and the prices in general were better. Oh and way less fat weebs that can't handle their power level.

Kek, I went there when I was 12 with a friend of my aunt who lives in Tokyo and we walked into a couple porn shops

>back breaking
If you think fruit or rice farming is backbreaking, you've never worked a day in your life. It's physically demanding, but not remotely tough if you are in reasonably good shape.


>poor paying
No one gets into farming expecting to be a millionaire. It's good money, though. And in Japan-- enough to buy plenty of land and a multi-story house with all the modern amenities fit for a damn king compared to the cubicle you'd get in the city.

Plus, you have almost all of winter off to do whatever the hell you want.

Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid? heh I remember when I was just like you. Braindead. Lemme give you a tip so you can make it in this cyber sanctuary: never make jokes like that. You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on 4chan by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is 4chan. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here. Me ? heh, I'm a judge.. this place.... this place has a lot to offer... heh you'll see, kid . . . that is you can handle it...

Nice projection.

Nobody in any developed country wants to be farm muscle. Why? Because you spend all day under the hot sun swinging a hoe and pulling shit out of the ground, and what you have to show for it is a pittance. Even people who are interested in physical labor will gravitate towards something that'll give them somewhat better standards of living, like building shit.

A cat falls in love with a girl.

Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with the girl's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.

But, the next day, when he intended to recounts the previous day's confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression because she doesn't understand cat language. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in this universe at all. She is the girl's alternate cat universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own AU non-cat self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush because cats and humans can't communicate in that universe either.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves without requiring verbal communication because cats and humans can't understand each other duh. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of LOVE.

Like jesus, i've looked around this website for 5 minutes and already you sjw shitbags are using our meme improperly. You reflect poorly on all of the anons when you steal our ORIGINAL MEME and turn it into a fucking tumblr thing. I mean jesus crist i just wish you all would shut the fuck up or go to 4chan to post pepes. So fuck you all you tumblrfags, get a life or become an anon.

They owe me kid, and I'm about to cash that favor with a site-wide silencing of this shitty meme that has flooded our site. Your butt is gonna clench and sweat as you huff pathetic gasps of air, once you read the big red letters (You have been BANNED). And you know what the reason is gonna be? It's gonna be because you crossed me. You tried me. You thought you could tiptoe right past the line of my patience, but you FAILED, and now the retarded joke you love to giggle to so much is gone. I want you to remember that, I want you to remember me when you have to find something else to do with your life, other than Banepost. Remember that, you miserable little faggot.

- Eating and drinking while walking around are seen as bad manners, if you're going to do so, loiter near the conbini and dispose of it here (some even have space to sit at)

- Rent a pocket wi-fi at the airport, return it when you leave.

- Do you mean an IC train card? If you're just coming to visit, consider getting a JR pass before you leave, if you plan to travel around a bit it can save you a bundle. Other than that (ro subways, etc.), research what they offer (2/3 day unlimited use cards, etc.) and see what would be cheapest.

Even still, I wouldn't move to Japan as a kokojin. Even when they accept and like you, you will still always be treated like a clown or a simple child. Plus, black friends all have stories about people running from them .

If you want a laugh, just call yourself "Bob"when you get to Japan. I don't know what the fuck it is, but Japanese people seem to think all black people are named "Bob."

Do the Japanese like western movies? I think Force Awakens did really well there but just asking in general I know their cinema is pretty hit and miss mostly being miss.

It's kokujin (黒人), not kokojin.

I laughed pretty hard at Kokojin honestly.

Fucking Coco, damn I love niggers.

Some series do well, like Harry Potter and Disney stuff.

Other one just sit and rot, honestly.

Honestly if you took some chink babies and dumped them in Japan and they were raised Japanese, none of them would even be able to tell the difference.

They could solve Japan's declining birthrate problem that way

Her feet are rough because she walks around barefoot any chance she gets, she eats the same food that could have been prepared 100 years ago with no evidence of social/cultural/technological advancement in the meantime and her vagina is hairier than many stray cats I've seen.

I've dated trashy wannabe gyaru girls too and they're marginally more civilized, but they've always let me go in raw. I prefer them even though it's a bit depressing how they have no real future in front of them besides controlling whatever salaryman's wallet they marry their way into.

>>138616543
I don't think you've been around Asians enough to tell the difference, but it's obvious when you've been here long enough.

those poor, fresh of the plane english teachers who think they're dating a Japanese woman when really she was some dirty Thai whore they met at Hub

I always wear a mask to hide my Chinese face. You can't tell with this on.

I really want to go to Akihabara in the 80's.

Or at least, see that version of it.

>>138616585
Not that anon but I'm a Chink and I seriously can't tell the fucking difference between Gooks and my own people half the time.

For some reason I can differentiate between Japs and Chinks though.
>>
>>138616724
Are you in America though, or living in a society where 99% of the population are the same ethnicity?

I promise you, Asians stand out far more in Japan. Of course there are some who can blend, but even I can generally tell and I'm a filthy foreigner too.

I live in Hong Kong.

Though you can really tell the difference between HK residents compared to Mainland Chinks.

I guess same thing applies in Japan if you live there long enough.

I'm a white guy who's lived in Japan for about a decade now.

I can usually tell by mannerisms before I can appearance, but usually by appearance too.

>Her feet are rough because she walks around barefoot any chance she gets
Just give her a pumice stone and that shouldn't be a problem any longer.

>she eats the same food that could have been prepared 100 years ago with no evidence of social/cultural/technological advancement in the meantime
Spend enough time introducing her to new foods in the city and she'll probably expand her tastes.

>and her vagina is hairier than many stray cats I've seen
>not wanting a cute rural girlfriend with a hairy muff
I just don't understand.

I'mma be there next month /a/nons.

Best stores to check out?
Do they accept Duty Free purchases?
>>
>>138616926
Have your passport, fill out the form at the counter.
>>
>>138614192
>If you ask me, it makes more sense for Australians to make video blogs about Japan compared to Canadians
You'd think so. But since we're closer to Asia in general our attention is split between pretty much all of South East Asia. You go to places like Bali and you find Aussies all over the damn place.

>>138616940

do otaku shops accept Duty Free purchases?

I can only hope it stays strong for as long as possible.

>>138616054
>wave around your freedoms
How so
>>
>>138617207
Depends on the items, they have pretty easy-to-see posters. Even 7/11 is Duty Free for some stuff (resident, so it doesn't apply、祖I can't tell you any more, sorry)
>>
>>138617207
There is a web site if you google...

Note that although the Donki at Akiba open 24 hours, the tax-refund counter only opens till 10pm or something like that.
>>
>>138617235
Wear something with our flag on it or a hate but for gods sake never be rude, you can get all the help in Japan you need but as long as your not a dick.

>people running from them

Funny I was with a friend in Toyko and while walking back from the convenient stores this small girl saw us and just starting bolting across the street even thought it was a red light. I was so scared she was going to get hit by one of those fucking trucks, although it's probably my friends fault for having his hands in his pockets.

As a side note fuck those tiny Japanese trucks I was chased by one down a alleyway.

>Do /a/nons go to akiba for their /g/ needs?

yes for oppai-pads
>>
>>138617351
Yeah, Akiba is too touristy these days. There are various little places around the city though Tokyo might as well be a small country actually, with how big it is) where you can find the legit crowd.
>>
>>138605765

fuck hotels

just use airbnb (basically uber for lodging) to rent a room or house (called "mansions" in Japan). With this method you actually get to experience living in REAL japanese neighborhoods!

just don't be a baka kitanai urusai gaijin and ruin it for every /a/nons onegai shimasu
