Ooh Sakuraco and Tokyo Treat subs are on my wishlist! Love your videos, even the nonfood has a food sponsor! I want to visit Japan very much-watashi wa Yonsei desu (Americajin). In Denden those paper dioramas, especially Studio Ghibli look fabulous. Also gachapon for realistic mini-food. I love making dollhouses and Japan makes the best mini Japanese-style food that can be found in gachapon. I love the controlled element of surprise in gachapon--you are still guaranteed to get a prize for your money, and it may be cool🥰. US gachapon doesn't seem to include such items? Please do a gachapon haul🙏❤
It's been years since I went to Denden Town. Thanks for making this video. I miss this place so much especially as a toy collector for Ultraman, Kamen Rider and Gundam. I've been to Japan so many times, it started to feel like a second home.
Oh no! It’s probably good that I didn’t find the first store when I was in Japan even though I went to that area a few times. I would have had to but another additional suitcase!
That Gundam gunplay store would be great to go to for a friend of mine. That dragon quest themed Lawson's looks really cool. I would have died a happy person if I could go to that last store. Really cool places. Thank you for sharing.
Paused over the floor with the guns. Mrs Eats was just getting excited by the pineapple grenade. My uncle went to Japan with his National Guard unit in the late eighties. He brought my dad some model kits that were 1:1 scale replicas of WWII hand grenades. The models were so detailed that you could unscrew the igniter and see how the weapon worked IRL. They were one each Japanese defensive grenade and U.S. smoke grenade, as well as two German grenades - the infamous potato masher and a small offensive grenade called a Goose Egg for it's size and shape. Offensive grenades are made with a shrapnel range less than their throwing range. Defensive grenades means that the fragments of shrapnel will fly over your position and, therefore can hit people who are attacking your foxhole while you huddle in it.
Wow, wow, wow!! Looks like you could spend so much at these stores 🤩 I built my first Gundam this year, super basic one. Was more fun than I thought especially when it was all built.
I probably could blow almost an entire vacation day in the area, just to soak everything in. 😄 I'm a bit surprised that the Taito Game Station actually had the 40th Anniversary Space Invaders Arcade 1-Up cabinet (@ 17:32) in the arcade itself. Those were originally geared for the home market as it's a 75% (3:4) scale & was sold flat-packed for $300 US. It was a 2nd Gen cabinet that has been discontinued (no longer listed on the Arcade 1-Up site) for some time.
❤ Wow! Love see so many different anime stuffs . Love it ! That was so cool 3-D pictures cards and Gundam models kits. And anime figures that so cool. Saw one spider man with robot. Surely look so rare is it ? Thank for show tour. Awesome!
18:33 I knew Dragon Warrior was called Dragon Quest in Japan but I had no idea it still had this much significance today....Dragon Warrior had kind of a lesser fan base following in the USA (if you were into these kinds of games in the 1980s, you were probably into Final Fantasy instead).
Ahh. I spend hours at that Taito Arcade playing Mobile Suit Gundam Arsenal Base. Also where I won like 3 lbs worth of mini jerky sticks. I think went to either that DQ Lawson's or the one in Tokyo.
The toy monkey at the end can be used as the monkey bomb from zombies in call of duty. I noticed the astro boy figure in one of the shelves and my dad growing up in Mexico watched that a lot, he liked it and loved how early anime like that was being dubbed in spanish.
I have never been a figure collector... until I went to Denden Town and the more local specialty shops in Hiroshima and Fukuoka as well. Everything was just so damn cool. I came back with loads of stuff.
Oh, I was curious about Denden Town, particularly shops - thanks for sharing! It's smaller than Akiba, but it seems they packed it full with all the essentials. xD And it sure looks way less crowded by comparison, not sure if the video was filmed recently, but it's around this time of the year that Akiba is just packed full with international tourists, right?
I do wonder if there are "Gransazer" toys! That show has been ages from TOHO! Unlike Kamen Rider, Super Sentai and Ultraman that always gets released seasons after seasons! Gransazer is only one season itself and I have always wanted to buy one!
Amazing! I really do hope that even I someday get the chance to visit Japan and Tokyo. All of you who live there must have a blast all the time! Cheers
That was Gigantor (I forgot what he was called in Japan), the first mecha iirc. That was neat seeing it since it was like black and white still when it was made.
I'm American but I'm not a fan of our gun culture, but my friends and I certainly played with toy guns when I was growing up. Today though I would only be interested in getting toy/model guns from Space Battleship Yamato or Harlock.
Collaboration with Paolo from Tokyo episode now!! The TH-cam gods need to bless this channel. The algorithm seems to like comparison videos to the US but idk doesn’t seem like a fun video to make.
Saint Seiya! If I ever went to Japan, I'd try to get all the bronze saints (I say 'try', because in reality my budget would probably allow for only one hahaha)
GREAT VIDEO! I have 2 questions since i will come to Osaka with my 6 years old boy in August. 1. what time normally toy shops closed in den den town osaka? I might go after my son goes to bed 2. is it okay to explore shops with 6 years old kid in den den town? I am afraid some shops have restriction (due to pornography) thank you so much
フラワーカップ DUMB question - but is it "Flower Cup" or "Flour Cup" - it is for a Darts event in Kagawa - where the wriggly chewy Udon Noodles are big. Makes sence it is Flour - wheat flour to make the noodles. Mrs Eats - you are my only hope! (Something different for the old Algo!)
Those JoJo poker chips and race cars are currently at Family Mart Ichibankuiji. 400 yen is probably cheaper than attempting to win it at 800 yen a pull.
1940's, actually. They were around for quite a long time. We had one. Every now and then newspapers would have a story about some kid who lost an eye. Seemed to happen pretty often.
6:30 - Have to correct Mr. Eats here, ヒトカゲ (Hitokage) is Charmander X'D Charizard is リザードン (Lizardon). And the one in the middle is Charmeleon or リザード (Lizardo). Fun fact - tourism vlogger 'Sharla In Japan' has her channel named after this Pokémon line - she started off as Sharmander, she's now Sharmeleon, and her aim is to become Sharizard :D (I think she changes her channel name based on her subscriber count). 22:59 - I wish I could work out which of these jewellery/make-up cases comes from what. I usually know these things due to the research of Kenny Lauderdale (he covers a lot of old stuff from Japan on his TH-cam channel).
There's nothing to correct. They didn’t say, 'This is a Charmander!' They said 'Charizard' three times because, obviously, most Westerners know what Charizard is. It was clearly a joke-the joke being, 'Pokémon = Charizard!!!1.' I thought that was already pretty obvious. As for 'Sharla,' how is she even relevant? Nobody cares.
Charmander being called charizard might be a fail, but the real disrespect is to walk past blue eyes (fair, its initial zone view), then past a triple blue eyes setup AND ONCE AGAIN in dino section ignore the semi-alternative/KTs final artstyle version of blue eyes (that is even a free to pose kit) all in the first couple of minutes of the video.
BB guns and air soft guns are considered children's toys here in America. You do have to be 18+ to buy them, though. Many adults do enjoy them. I have quite a few myself, and I'm 33. They make great costume props because they look more realistic than cap guns and actual toy guns that don't shoot projectiles or make the noise and smoke that cap guns do. My state, Massachusetts, has strict gun regulations. I'm not sure if that plays a part in a difference in popularity. I doubt it, though, as New Hampshire, our neighboring state, only follows our few federal regulations for owning a firearm and BBs and Air soft are fairly popular there as well. I think people use them for target practice at their homes. It's easier and safer than using your real gun when not at a shooting range. I should add that a lot of teens have air soft guns rather than BB guns, as air soft are safer than BBs. I have some of both types. My BB guns are strong enough to shatter the plastic BBs that are meant to be used with air soft guns. Metal BBs are better for actual BB guns. Adults tend to have proper BB guns more than kids will because you can still cause permanent damage very easily with them. My friend's brother shot her point blank with his when they were kids and she has a scar from it. Another friend of mine killed a chipmunk with a BB gun. Thus, they are, as time passes, being considered toys less and less.
I'm from America, and I might want a model gun if it has a fantasy or a futuristic design, but not one that looks like a real gun because what would be the point? I could just get a real gun.

You and Mr. Eats are so cute! You have me up all night binging your shows. 😂😂😂 Keep it up!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
This and your last video… Mrs. Eats, your hair has been everything!!! It looks so good, just wanted you to know. ❤️
It's been years since I went to Denden Town. Thanks for making this video. I miss this place so much especially as a toy collector for Ultraman, Kamen Rider and Gundam. I've been to Japan so many times, it started to feel like a second home.
Is this the place you all walked through a while ago on livestream?? Thank you for going back and doing a deep dive into the area. This is so awesome!
Charmander is Charizard 🤣
Dont fight with fire or youll get burned 🤣
😂
Came to the comments to see how many people called out Mr Eats for that lol!
mrs Eats is so darned cute. ❤
Looks like a very cool place! Would love to visit one day, thank you for taking us!!💖💖
Wow first time trying DRS xD @16:27
Sadly no Gold cabs, only White Cabs lol @15:56
Wish I wanna play gold cabs too 😢
Oh no! It’s probably good that I didn’t find the first store when I was in Japan even though I went to that area a few times. I would have had to but another additional suitcase!
I l❤ve your sweater Mrs Eats 🥰. What a fun place to go. This has gone on my Osaka Wishlist 👏. Thank you so much for another excellent video ☺️🫶
My inner child just screamed in joy and then passed out 👍🏻😁
That Gundam gunplay store would be great to go to for a friend of mine.
That dragon quest themed Lawson's looks really cool.
I would have died a happy person if I could go to that last store.
Really cool places. Thank you for sharing.
Ive missed a few videos but good to see you guys. Seems like you guys & NihongoDekitawithSayaka would make a good collab
I love the fact that it's 46-year-old woman still has the mind of a child

Can you get the real ones in Walmart?

I love Taito Station! My husband won a Pikachu from a claw machine there, and was cheered on by the teenagers watching him.
I love how happy Mrs. Eats gets over the littlest things, she's definitely easy to please. Lol
Hey i recognise those dogs on your shirt, cavalier king charles spaniel! Very cool

First of all thank you for making these videos.. Secondly I love these videos the only thing that could be added is tags for these shops and stores..
Good host and production quality. This show has IT factor, its hard to say why. Subscribed
Love from Kenya 🇰🇪 ❤
Oh man, Japan dioramas are so evocative and well-designed. I should never go there, or I'd end up with random assembled models filling up my house.
Ahh. I spend hours at that Taito Arcade playing Mobile Suit Gundam Arsenal Base. Also where I won like 3 lbs worth of mini jerky sticks. I think went to either that DQ Lawson's or the one in Tokyo.
Love this video! Thank you so much for showing Denden. Studio Ghibli Dioramas are ❤

Well, they had me at the Ultraman stuff.
I remember Ultraman from about a half century ago.
Feels like I just can sleep and live inside the store, my inner child awoken and nostalgic.
Oh, I was curious about Denden Town, particularly shops - thanks for sharing!
It's smaller than Akiba, but it seems they packed it full with all the essentials. xD And it sure looks way less crowded by comparison, not sure if the video was filmed recently, but it's around this time of the year that Akiba is just packed full with international tourists, right?
Just discovered this channel today, love it already.
I haven't heard of Saint Seiya in such a long time. It never really took off in the US, but it was super popular in Brazil.
Fun video! Thanks for posting.
I do wonder if there are "Gransazer" toys! That show has been ages from TOHO! Unlike Kamen Rider, Super Sentai and Ultraman that always gets released seasons after seasons! Gransazer is only one season itself and I have always wanted to buy one!
That Ghosts and Goblins cabinet 😍
Amazing! I really do hope that even I someday get the chance to visit Japan and Tokyo. All of you who live there must have a blast all the time! Cheers
That was Gigantor (I forgot what he was called in Japan), the first mecha iirc. That was neat seeing it since it was like black and white still when it was made.
Iron man 28 if I'm not mistaken
I remember Gigantor. Didn't like it, though.
Thank you!
are there any articulated doll figures, which do not only concern anime and manga characters, but with the same style?
I was there one year ago. Miss Japan already !
i really love your reaction on that figures
charizard??? he called charmander as charizard
Red flag
Meh close enough
@@CCoreXB they are all the same really haha
Nerd
Probably made the mistake because hitokage is literally "fire lizard"
That gunpla selection looked pretty good
and here, i thought Mr. Eats knew his Pokémon 😹
So which is better, Osaka or Tokyo, and how long does it take to go to osaka
Well I know one place I’m going to when I get to Japan 🇯🇵 ❤
Oh yeah, Mandarake. I don't know how many dolls (BJDs) I bought from them over the years ... my bank account does not like Mandarake. 😅
Leon’s gun had me sold immediately

The dolls are called Blythe. 😊
Any Butler Cafe?
Stupid silver slimes!
The tin robot toys are gorgeous!

I love japan toys and cards
Bro, going to Japan would be amazing

What city is this in mrs eats? I’m coming to Japan in august.
Osaka

When i was in Japan and go into a store like this its hard to came out and dont buy things it the best place in the world JAPAN
"These are the toys that kids grew up with a long time ago." Zooms in on Cock Fighting! 😂
I thought I just read the thumbnail "the best toy stories in Japan" for a moment😂
cant imagine how loud they sounds at there
I unironically love to go to the maid shops
I want borushiki and sarada statue figure that's not funko pop, i wonder if they have it
Pokemon day! I like kamen rider more than any others
Free fried chicken??
*heads over to that machine right away* (I wish)
😏
Hi Mrs eats,
Did you spot any Fullmetal Alchemist and Kuroko No Basuke figures?
I shouldn't be surprised, but why are Japanese toys so much better than USA toys.
Please do a livestream one day

ここは天国だろう
Koko wa tengokudarou
Charmander is now charizard
In America we have our real guns yeah but we also love movie replicas.
I bet if you built a Gundam and record or stream it you'd get a ton of views.
yeah den den town rules
In the US, the guns would be real. Who needs toys? I was surprised to glimpse Felix the Cat.
I want everything
I'm from America, and I might want a model gun if it has a fantasy or a futuristic design, but not one that looks like a real gun because what would be the point? I could just get a real gun.
