People might not understand what's so special about fridge space but I would say more than 95% of japanese mansions including the newer ones have narrower fridge space which only fits japanese fridge but not the high-end fridges from foreign brands. Wide fridge space by itself is a luxury in Japan.

Why do the windows have that metal grid pattern in them??? I've noticed this in other apartment tours Alex has done. Is it earthquake code?? Cause here in the States the only places I've seen those types of windows are in schools, gyms, hospitals, and jails. Places where security is important(or an errant basketball can crack a normal window). Gives a real sort of institutional vibe that would drive me nuts in this otherwise beautiful apartment.

For $25K a month, I don't expect some gadget accepting my packages and mail, I expect a 24hr doorman to do so. Also, no oven for $25K a month! People keep saying most Japanese apts don't have ovens, but most Japanese apt doesn't cost $25K a month. Also, where/what are the amenities of this building? A building with no decent amenities isn't really an exclusive apartment, its just an apartment. I can't believe we have bargain lux apartments here in midtown Manhattan for "only" $15K a month! To be clear, not a critique of the channel, really like this channel, this is a critique of this apartment. My only negative critique of the review is you should stop saying "for Japanese standards" since this is probably 15x the avg rent in Japan. I feel like when you say it, you're just highlighting the fact that its missing something it should have for the price point. Otherwise, awesome review, will be waiting for the next one. Cheers!
