Random Stuff in Japan

Clustered photos of what a pair of not-so-normal tourists encounter in Japan.

Macross!
Encountered random Macross-related stuff, most probably to promote the new movie?

Macross Food Menu
Collaboration between Macross and Pasela, a karaoke place in Yokohama.

(clearly overpriced)

415: Nyan Nyan Macross ramen (a.k.a overpriced ramen)
416: .. creepy smiling bun.
417: Galaxy Fairy ~Sheryl plate~ .. taiyaki.. May’n? ^^;
418: Interstellar Flight Kiran! ~Ranka plate~ .. er, Kiran potatoes?
419: Ranka’s pet’s Ai-kun .. clearly a dessert with fruits and ice cream.. let’s just hope it’s a big block of cake not tofu.

Drinks that match the character’s hair colour.
421: Alto (blue), 422: Sheryl (pink), 423: Ranka (green)

Also some goods like straps and card cases.

Macross Train
Snapped shots when it stopped in one of the station along Yurikamome line.

Ranka carriage~

Sheryl carriage~

Square Enix Showcase
..which was damn hard to find thanks to berry misreading the map. And on side note, Shinjuku station was sooo big we epicly got lost INSIDE the damn station. I hate Japanese maps and their north sign that points to different way in each map. $!@#!#!

Front door, looking very awesome with Lightning!

Tonberry and Cactuar in massive size!

Lifesize Sephiroth! a.k.a the reason I was forced to find the showcase.

The collector in me couldn’t stand not buying all Smile Slime colours! (and that cute Chochobo)

Stalking Minorin (again!)
..can’t really help it when you’re traveling with a Minoritard orz

LABI Shibuya.

..where Minorin bought her new fridge. Don’t look at me it was berry who told me that.

Minorin junk food.

Sapporo beer (Minorin was seen drinking it on Message 2.5). Sucked so bad we couldn’t finish it.

Minorin often blogs about different flavours of Tyrol’s Kinakomochi but the 2 samples are enough to stop us from seeking for more. Yakh.
- Choco Kinakomochi (left side), tastes okay.. I guess.
- Yaki Kinakomochi (right side), tastes like shit. No wonder the mochi thing looks like it’s gonna puke.

Lesson learned: do NOT trust Minorin’s taste in food. ^^;

Maid Cafe
In @home cafe in Donki Akihabara, a rare case where most maids are cute lol.

Me and a very moe maid nyan~~ <3
*censored to protect your eyes.

A funny note about our maid cafe trip. There was one Japanese girl, who was pretty and stylish, who went in the cafe ALONE.. and started staring and drooling at the maids. ^^;; It got more awesome when she took picture with the maid.. and she *taught* the maid how to pose. xD

Kaomoji
The most awesome mug series ever invented! xD
You can easily find it in gift shop, like Kotobukiya Shop in Akiba.

Obviously I bought the most relevant mug: the fapping face.

Back view with the fapping sound (ハァハァ) lololol.

The Taiyaki @ Shibuya
Accidentally walked past the stall in Shibuya, so why not? Uguu~~

Not sure if it was a newly-opened branch or Japanese just love to queue.

Shows Japanese perception on foreign countries’ food.
- US: Cheese burger.
- Germany: German potato.
- Italy: Italian (meatball.. lol pasta?)
- France: Apple cinnamon.
- Belgium: Chocolate & custard.
- Japan: Azuki / red beans.

Bought azuki and choco custard, both were good and freaking sweet.

Fated Nana encounters~
*runs*

Stairway to Nana heaven in Ikebukuro. (this is why otaku CD store rocks)

Layton promo poster in Ikebukuro movie theatre.. look closely to the right!

It’s the Eternal Diva.. Mizuki Nana~ <3

..and that’s about it! Looking back, there were more abnormal stuff than not, but oh well. ^^;
