It was supposed to be a cool day. Not literally, sadly.
I was planning to hang out with some American (otaku) guy in Akihabara. I knew from the very beginning I had no money to go - well, if I calculated right, I had about 1000¥ because my mum gave me some to charge my IC card I use for trains.
First of all, after getting of at Akihabara the heat just tried killing you. It wasn't very pleasant, but a typical Japanese summer. (Luckily I was smart enough to borrow a towel from my sister - saved me so many times from looking like a sweating pig.)
The first thing I saw was that huge, blue building with a sign saying "SEGA". The last time I read that word was in May in Ginza; You could play Project Diva f and Mirai there (Who knows me also knows that Vocaloid happens to be my number one fandom. Only Goodness knows why.) Anyway, that's why I was really excited to go there, bu‾t my company wanted to go to a huge anime/manga/merchandise shop instead called "animate". So we went there. There and to many other shops. They all had two things in common: They were cramped and had such a bright selection that you were kinda spammed with all kinda anime stuff. Even if you wanted to buy something, you just couldn't. Too. Much.
In a shop that sold second hand stuff I found my luck though (in Japan you just have to be a cheap scape or you'll go under). No picture because yeah,take my lunch instead (no hipster, no instagram). What I bought was a Dragon Quest X bag and a K-ON towel. As a member and otaku of that club I just have to show some pride.
After the lunch we pretty much went into every shop. I just started feeling more and more tired with the fucking heat and my feet feeling heavier and heavier. After walking from 9 to 17 o'clock I knew it was going to happen sooner or later, but either way it was a pain. (Ladies and gentlemen, please slap your legs, that word play was terrible.)
At the latter time we decided to head back home. Nothing really happened anymore besides me meeting some people in Pokémon Black 2. I really love the pass-by function. And Twitter. Damn, I adore Twitter (once again). Oh, you Japanese people.
(Since posting actually works, I'll be able to do it. I'm not really satisfied that I can only send post two pictures and they're put at the beginning of the message but better than nothing, right? :3)
