I am Japanese and used to use it when I moved to Tokyo and was looking for an apartment. It is too hot in the middle of summer in Tokyo. The air conditioner is working and you can drink as much as you want. The night package is even cheaper, so I would order a beer and sleep until morning. I also often use it when I miss the last train after a night of drinking. The first train in Ikebukuro leaves at 5:00 a.m., so a manga café is the perfect place to get some sleep.
I'm just curious why people in japan when they miss the last train didn't order taxi/uber to get home instead they sleep over internet cafe at that night
@@newt4050technically it is an internet cafe but I think the owners of these places knew their patrons use it as a temporary shelter. Maybe because tax laws lol.
The meals were also on the expensive side from what I've seen! You can easily spend 30 USD in three hours and have a little feast and time to unwind. They are lovely.
America could never, like I would kill to have a place where I could just lock myself away and have free drinks/soup. Just to get away from people or even just to have a place to crash when home doesn't have those nice vibes.
The fact that some homeless Japanese people can essentially live in these type of internet cafes (While they look for accommodation) always felt weird to me. However free drinks and soup, relatively cheap and good food and a reclining chair footstool and blankets so you can sleep made me understand why.
Also no one there will question them since most people who frequent these places are introverts who don't want to be talked to in the first place, so yeah, it makes perfect sense
@@bisexualbillgates460 The homeless people who live in these cafés often have jobs but no homes since homes are WAY more expensive, they can afford the food and stay easily (the jobs they have are smaller jobs though, that's why)
@@SlapStyleAnims You just live in a bad area. I don't see why a building full of closets with office chairs would get looted. I'm starting to wonder if you people are even from America
You have to love how much pride goes into the food here considering it's an internet cafe. I don't think people would care too much if it wasn't that good or at least presented badly, but they still put in the effort to serve good food. Looking forward to a Japan visit some time in my life
All these people complaining about the sounds, not realizing that this is a measure of just how *quiet* this cafe is. I'd have to be playing something on the headphones the whole time because it would be *too* quiet for me to stand.
so many negative comments.. :/ this seems like such a nice place to go. thank you for disclosing that this space is not entirely private & documenting everything with honesty and respect. this video was probably the best unintentional ASMR ever! what a unique culture they have. id love to go someday. 🎉
I'm so used to DancingBacons eating out in public places and noisy restaurants that the sound of chewing and swallowing was way more pronounced and unexpected. Got a little surprised lol.
Hey Bacons, thank you for taking us with you on your adventures. I watch your videos before sleep and it's comforting to be transported in my mind to these places. :3
Free drinks and ice cream alone gives quite a lot of value for this place. I feel like the audio quality has significantly improved. Hats off Mr.Bacon❤❤
Makes me miss the days of internet cafes here in the US. I used to frequent one back in 2010 -11 to play Killing Floor for hours. It was so cozy with the lighting and the temperature was always perfect. There was some snacks you could buy but they also let you take in some food and drinks within reason.
@@nena_nezali Internet Cafés are still popular with certain people (e.g. Chinese exchange students), so they have not completely died out. Makes sense, if you are poor and can't afford a gaming machine, but can afford to rent one for a few hours every now and then... Ofc, you don't need those for just internet access, since phone plans are cheap nowadays
My goodness, this place looks amazing and awesome for someone like me, who may not go outside too often but still wouldn't mind a change of scenery from my room/home time to time. The food and drinks looks delicious too, I can easily see myself spending half a day on a weekend at a place like this. I just hope the PCs have games on it, or if they allow you to bring a console and hook it up to the TV.
this should be definitely adopted in western states. I believe 50% of homelessness would be avoided if not more as it solves a variety of issues at one go. Its not only about the shelter itself, its access to internet, tv, drinks, shower etc. you could basically participate in society by having a remote job without tying any financial or emotional strings to a place. Sure adaption would take time and it would be more of an avoidance of homelessness developing in the future than with the current generation but still an effort which should be made
Man, I'd love to be able to experience one of these places someday. I watched an interview of someone that lived in one of these places how they get to be both in a private place but at the same time surrounded by other people and that gives them comfort. It was a big mood.
why do i live in the uk this is genuinely so intuitive to just visit as well as being 24hrs i dislike the hustle and bustle of city life where i am but i'm the type of person who likes the spend the night outside or visiting places it's somehow introvert friendly while offering a fun and different experience to break up your time
This is a dream for introverts like me. I'd definitely wouldn't mind having this in America! Wished you'd tell us where these places are, although I sort of have an idea why you don't want to reveal the location of these places.
The business's name is all over the place, so you can easily Google their location. I was able to do that when I went to Japan for the Teddy Bear Onsen Hotpot restaurant they visited a couple years ago.
Hello ! I really enjoy watching your videos and I’m always waiting for new ones in excitement! Everything you ate in this video made me get mad over the fact that the country I am in doesn’t have ANY of that, it looks so so so so so good and a fun experience ! Hope you are doing good !^ ^
It's reassuring knowing that people struggling financially or that need a safe space for the night have café's like these as an option. It'd be nice to see places of this standard on a global scale but of course it's always easier said, than done. Especially when most places in the west (at the very least) prefer investing in ways to pretend that there aren't homeless people in their cities.
You were seen in a similar way, even if it wasn't directly on camera. But when you got the ice cream. Now I finally know who is behind this great video. Greetings from Oldenburg Germany
It's very difficult for us in the West to understand just how valued privacy is in Japan. I remember seeing a Natural History programme where a geologist explored how the geology and geography of the country affected its culture. To keep it simple, most of the population is crammed into a very small area of land that is relatively flat. The need to keep tensions down between so many individuals occupying what little liveable space there is has led to a very ritualised polite society. It also means that privacy, as we lucky sods in the West know it, is rare in Japan and considered a luxury. As small as that space is, the fact you can rent it per hour for as long as you want is a perk. To have such things as food and drink there makes it almost paradisical...
That is really amazing value for money, with all those free drinks, soup and ice-cream. I think it only works in Japan, because in other places, people would take too much, not clean up, not take care of the machines etc. The same goes for the capsule hotels, where you sometimes even get free alcoholic drinks. People dont take advantage, and that why it works.
That Apple Pie à la Mode looked fantastic, but the vibrant blue sauce for the fries and chicken looked like it came straight out of a nuclear reactor. XD
That is the best ice cream I’ve ever had too! There was a lot of research into the cone and ice cream. It is very rich and heavy in the milk fats. But it was great.
They have almost never spoken in any of these videos. I think the natural quietness of this place just amplified it. She or sharmander have never spoken much except for a few videos. The spicy hot challenge in their apartment with the mother was one I can remember them speaking
If DancingBacons opened a restaurant it would be the craziest restaurant in the world. You would have to grill your food and jump on a trampoline at the same time while clowns threw koalas at you or something. 14:25 is the most I've ever seen of DancingBacons.
If the building has good air conditioning it looks like it would be a good place to cool down and rehydrate in hot weather. With the tissues and wipe-clean furniture I'm guessing some people find it a good place for other purposes...
Yeah a lot of people are talking about homeless but employed people living there but there's also a large population of young adults that still live at home with parents, sometimes grandparents, not a lot of privacy... love hotels are popular for a reason but a place for solo activities could definitely also be in demand & this is a bit less targeted than American-style peep shows & adult theater booths, more discrete.
You eat your food in the rooms. So it makes sense everything should be easily wiped off. This isn’t an enclosed room. It’s just a cubicle. There’s no way you can even move without anyone hearing you.
Free drinks, and place to hide, PLEASE BRING IT TO CANADA!! I could use a place to hide away in and I sure some people I know would gladly on some days escort me there and prepay!! LOL
that show is decent to watch ofc they have a nice collab sauce: The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest episode 4 so far i think

no wonder some japanese people actually live in these places. i believe some cafes even have showers available.
It's crazy deals, I would also live there 24/7 if I have to
You are correct. Some do have showers. Plus some other amenities like laundry machines.
This is part of why Japan has a very low homeless rate, a lot of homeless cafe surf in places like this.
I don't think it's just an internet cafe anymore. It's more like a hotel to me.
