Day 16 - Akihabara

Akihabara.  What else can I say.  This area just needs to be experienced to be understood. Yodobashi is mind boggling, and the whole area in general is something to behold.

A view out the window while I waited for Linda in the doll shop.

Evangelion is probably as celebrated or more possibly than Miyazaki films in Japan.

This is a good example of the difference between America and Japan. Over here, we might think of making something as ridiculous as a remote control hand cart, but in Japan, THEY ACTUALLY GO AHEAD AND MAKE IT.

Cut away BJD.

This girl was pretty cool.

Me resting. On this day, I felt a shade rough. Walking, back pain, lack of sleep, physically overwhelmed in general. I pretty much felt like the guy in the middle of my shirt.

Inside Yodobashi on the computer floor, they had an amazing Wacom display. There were probably 12 or 15 models on display, all of different sizes, some which were huge.  They all had example drawings on them, and you could pick up the stylus and draw on them to try them out. I made a slight adjustment to this nice air plane. I can only hope, that maybe, it made some Japanese man laugh a little. I had to take a photo of it before I walked away, simply because I found it amusing.

Being in Japan means being overwhelmed with commercialism. Well, Yodobashi got the better of me and I bought this cool little point and shoot duty free!
