fuunji (and ichiran) were the first 2 noodle shops i hit up on my first trip to tokyo! i forgot to pull the sliding door behind me at fuunji and totally gave off gaijin vibes!
"because my friends are usually late" 😂😅 *repeats twice* 🤣🤣 And yesss i've been wondering that, how do japanese people literally look like they're not even sweating!!
Going to have to try Fuunji, love tsukemen is better than ramen! More chewy noodles and more intense flavour. Oh I believe…someone’s correct me if I’m wrong, on top of having a Buddha for temples, Shrines has Torii gates, temple don’t. Sensoji is a temple and has a big gate but no Torii gates. Meiji temple has Torii gates and it’s a shrine.
Great, now I know some good places to wait for friends in Japan (imagine a country where public seating is so rare you need a youtube guide to find good spots, lol). The only issue left is finding friends in Japan now, I guess.
I like people watching too and trying to find patterns to the chaos. Lol. You're also way funnier than you have any right to be. Stay cool! (literally)
This is such valuable information! It's always tricky trying to figure out where you're allowed to "loiter" in a new city. Also... At 5:06... Does that say "eggslut"?
I really appreciate this video! I’m disabled and it’s difficult for me to stay on my feet for too long. Japan (Tokyo especially) is very tiring but these spots will make my next trip easier 😊 Thank you!
I love how your videos are evolving. You're doing such a great job. Your presentations are much more confident. I love your editing as well. Looking forward to seeing more from you!
Thanks for the recommending theses spots!, that suica penguin is so cute!, I hear that this statue was made to compete with the dog statue in Shibuya to compete for the best meeting spot in Tokyo
You have a unique way of looking at the world around you. I also love to just sit down, soak in the atmosphere of a place and observe people. Looking forward to seeing more videos, they are definitely filling a gap in presenting Japan ❤
You say tsukemen being better than ramen is an unpopular opinion, but honestly, that's far from the first time I've heard someone boldly state that opinion. Makes me think I need to find a good tsukemen place one day 🤔
I agree! I think people who know about Japanese culture prefer tsukemen a lot of the time. However, worldwide ramen is still waaaaay more well known so I guess that’s why I feel like it’s an “unpopular” opinion.
Intro: Monolyssa strikes with vengy.
P.S. Stereolyssa wins in the end, though.

Do the shinkansen go by your no.2 spot to take a break, cause i'd be quite happy just sitting there all day if they do?
Sadly the shinkansens do not go to shinjuku they only go through Tokyo station. (Which is about a 45 minute train ride from Tokyo station)

I loved this video! You should do this for more neighborhoods in Tokyo
I want to! What neighborhood would you recommend?

Hahah! Finding friends in Japan is easier than finding benches! I promise!
And you don't really like snacks, whaaaat!
I know! Im sorry! I’ve been made fun of for that my whole life!
@@Lyssakay I'm sorry she says, ahahaa, no worries! You shouldn't be made fun of, it's unusual but nothing bad xD
I like people watching too and trying to find patterns to the chaos. Lol. You're also way funnier than you have any right to be. Stay cool! (literally)
What a fun idea for a travel guide. Sometimes you really need to just sit and chill.
I’ve learned that sitting and chilling makes upwards of 70% of a perfect vacation!
Genuinely love these videos
This is such valuable information! It's always tricky trying to figure out where you're allowed to "loiter" in a new city.
Also... At 5:06... Does that say "eggslut"?
It does. Eggslut is a restaurant from LA that has expanded to a couple of locations, including Japan obviously.
Hahah it low key does say eggslut! It’s a popular chain in Tokyo! I left it in cause I thought it would be funny for the people who noticed it
I really appreciate this video! I’m disabled and it’s difficult for me to stay on my feet for too long. Japan (Tokyo especially) is very tiring but these spots will make my next trip easier 😊 Thank you!
LOVE your videos Lyssa ❤💙 ....and my belly wishes I didn't like snacks 🤡
It’s a curse as much as a blessing hahah
I love how your videos are evolving. You're doing such a great job. Your presentations are much more confident. I love your editing as well. Looking forward to seeing more from you!
Thank you! That’s really sweet of you to say!
I appreciate your videos, you're very open and honest. I feel a sense of sincerity and It's refreshing. Wishing you good luck with your channel x
Thank you! I really just enjoy making videos!
"But not in a creepy way" 😂
Thanks for the recommending theses spots!, that suica penguin is so cute!, I hear that this statue was made to compete with the dog statue in Shibuya to compete for the best meeting spot in Tokyo
I didn’t know that! Sadly I think hachiko is still winning the popularity contest!
Love your videos
by friends being late do you mean "Sarah" haha?
Hahah no! Sarah is always on time and very reliable!
I love your subtitles!
Chillin in Shinjuku
Thanks for showing Shinjuku. It’s good to see how much it’s been built up in the last 25 years.
I actually can’t imagine what it was like 25 years ago!
@@Lyssakay it was definitely a lot different. It looks a lot fancier now than it did back then.
You have a unique way of looking at the world around you. I also love to just sit down, soak in the atmosphere of a place and observe people. Looking forward to seeing more videos, they are definitely filling a gap in presenting Japan ❤
Thank you! That means a lot to me! I love just sitting and taking in the atmosphere of a place.
Another great video. Hope some other Tokyo TH-camr doesn’t copy it like the last one.
I look forward to returning to Tokyo, an amazing place.
This is a really nice channel. Thanks a lot and please make more videos.
Not unpopular. Tsukemen > Ramen.
great video thank you
I’ll date you. I live in Tokyo. ❤
