Ah there was so much more to explore. 😮 Your update is so detailed and enjoyable. Unfortunately, I didn't get too far in Shinjuku because it was burning outside. 🥵 Enjoyed the Kabukicho Bulilding especially the gatchapons which I purchased a few. 😊Next time, I wanna visit when it is not so hot to enjoy a relaxing walk in Shinjuku park. ありがとう for the hard work.

It is always enjoyable to watch your city strolls, this time Shinjuku, although it was cloudy, in the end even started to rain, no wonder it is a rainy season, after all. As for me the loveliest parts were the Shinjuku gohen, really huge peaceful place to spend a lot of time enjoying the nature in the middle of the city, as well as the Municipal Observatory although due to the weather not so much fun. I have seen some shorts dealing with Godzila project mapping there, quite interesting, but I also 37:21 remember your old Godzila video, it was so fun to watch, too. By the way I was blessed yesterday to catch the live of the recital part by Hayato Sumino from Nippon Budokan. I was impressed both by his playing celebrating his 29th birthday as well as by the huge concert hall as such. Have you ever visited there? Hoping that you will successfully navigate the tsuyi season and find some appropriate time for your filming. Stay safe and healthy! GAOOO....

Our family travelled to Japan in late 2023 - following your earlier videos, we were able to find our way to Penguin Square and enjoyed a peaceful time there watching trains and visiting the department stores (loved Hands the most!). We also liked the Starbucks in Kabukicho for peaceful breaks looking out of their big upstairs window 🙂. We stayed in Shin-Okubo in north Shinjuku which was interesting but too noisy and busy for us - next time we'll choose somewhere quieter!

as a nordic i must say japanese rain rarely bothered me unless its typhoon season, thats a bit heavy. If anything i would say its a golden oppertunity to get to those places who is harder to get into, as there will be less people out, meaning less queues.

Hi! We were there this past December 2023, it was also closed, I’ve asked workers there and they mentioned someone fell while climbing, maybe suicide. So they closed indefinitely 😢. I think they are making more improvements to the security or fencing. It was sad because we stayed at Gracery hotel for a few nights, great hotel, clean and in the heart of Shinjuku.

this suprice me a little bit, i find most buildings you almost have to use the lift to even get in to spots, havent been to a single station i can remember that doesnt have a lift. I'm going back this october, ill try and keep an eye for "research" purposes, but from my experience they are easily found. Tbf, not every spot do have one, that is true though. But i would say its a lot easier to find them in japan than where i live.

Previously at Ameyokocho, I didn't know about the Otoshi. We were hungry and fancied to eat seafood. The waitress of a restaurant warned us about the Otoshi and recommended us to fill our stomach next door instead, as hers was a drinking bar. We thanked this kind waitress who didn't just want to earn our money. Is there any way we know that the restaurant would collect Otoshi before we enter it?
