I'm not interested in meeting new people, cool architecture or seeing ancient buildings - there are plenty of those things in London, where I live. I want a vaporwave holiday.

I know it sounds dumb and childish, but I really want to experience the whole aesthetic in a tangible way.

What do you think I could do?
I was thinking maybe renting an incredibly tiny apartment in Tokyo during the winter or something, i dont know.

What the hell is a vaporwave holiday? Just use drugs like a normal person instead of listenin to crappy artzie music songs, fucking weeb. What the hell do you think you're gonna see through the window of an apartment in Tokyo? Probably 4 drunk businessmen going to a massage parlor, and you have plenty of that in London.

I'm not sure what I want.

I want to sit on a balcony and see tons and tons of people going about their day, see lights flickering on and off all around me as people live their life, hear snatches of arguments carried by the wind and the laughter of others, and all the while sit up there wrapped in a blanket and drinking tea by myself while listening to music.

uhm. i know it sounds stupid. i would never tell anyone i want this in real life.

>>1176164
You can do this in London, you'll just end up seeing more Asian people in Tokyo.
>>
The whole idea of Vapor wave is that it emulates 80's and 90's aesthetics so you want to time travel

Rent the worse hotel in the chungking mansion and sit in small dodgy 2 table restaurants while absolutely hammered. Pretend your in blade runner.
>>
>>1176151
There are hotels overlooking Time's Square, Piccadilly Circus, probably whatever spot you like in Tokyo or Shanghai.
>>
>>1176164
That sounds pretty fucking cool, man. No need to be ashamed of wanting that kind of experience.

I heard renting an apartment is incredibly tough for foreigners, especially if you don't have a job. I don't know if it's what you're looking for, but here's a capsule hotel (recommended by another anon on this board) that's incredibly cheap (it's called Hotel New Tochigiya).

I have a confession to make: I like that idea too, and I try to do it whenever I can at home. If I find myself in a different city, I'll do it there too. Most satisfying were Shanghai and Hong Kong. It's really a situational thing though- because you can post up at a bar or on an overlook anywhere with your earbuds in and watch the people and the lights. I wouldn't plan a trip around it.

is it what tourist guides refer to as "people watching"?

I see that mentioned all the time
>>
>>1176184
I did that. Things I saw in that building can never be unseen.
>>
>>1176321
yes it is

it's a normie tier phenomenon, OP just put a gay purple filter over it and wants to be special
>>
>>1176337

>popular things are bad

Can you be any more of a 13 year old?
>>
>>1176339
well yes, if i was born 13 years ago

i dont think people watching is bad, i just think pretending you're special for doing normal things is

Hong kong will be better for this than tokyo. Hong kong is vapor wave, most parts of tokyo are not.

Go to pattaya in high season. Sit in an open bar. Drink your beer and watch multitudes of degenerates and whores wave pass and around you

Tokyo, hands down. Kabukicho, Shinjuku, ikebukuro, shibuya. Akiba and ginza for extra weeb and posh spices.
Central Osaka as well. Yokohama Chinatown.
If not Japan, then Hong Kong and Shanghai, these are closer to blade runneresque feel.

That's all I want from life. I want to be around society, and not truly interact with it. Just observe peacefully.

Do some acid and listen to The Rippingtons at a Burger King.

Youre welcome

I think some Japanese or Chinese city that has its best times behind it might do the trick - think regional capital somewhere in the boonies, or a formerly important industrial town.

I had this really '90s summer vacation in Italy' vibe when I was in Takamatsu, for example, even though that's different from what you want.

Hong Kong gives the perfect atmosphere, Shanghai is too spread out and not old enough. It doesnt get anymore blade runner than looking out of the window in mong kok or admirality
