Another update thanks to a commenter! Amiami 2nd is being refurbished April-July and will reopen near Radio Kaikan!

Thanks for clarification I just looked it up because I didn’t know there were 2 stores!
@@Japanismyfavorite no worries! If you’re going to Akihabara soon have a fun trip!
I’ll be there in July, I’m a scummy reseller but it’s kind of just a fun hobby. I would recommend akiba culture zone next time as they have a lasinbang there and other good shops. Awesome video though!
@@Japanismyfavorite it’s important to have resellers otherwise there’ll be a much smaller market, no different to people buying and selling whisky or wine to me, after all everyone had the opportunity to preorder at the beginning ! Have fun in Japan and I’ll checkout the akiba culture zone next time thanks for the heads up!
Having purchased a bunch of books/manga in second hand stores like Book-Off, the best part about Japan's "second hand" market is people's mentality of taking care of their stuff. It's almost indistinguishable from brand new stuff, other than obviously boxes being slightly damaged or showing signs of wear, not actually seen on the figure/product etc.
Agreed! Like the Yae Sakura figure I saw, I didn’t notice anything wrong with it, but the shop attendant was a lot more meticulous and can spot any tiny defects. Their standards for second hand is very high there
The reason for the higher prices is because some of those shops you featured in your video are resellers. Mandarake is my first stop when it comes to otaku stuff. They have stuff from over twenty years ago that are original releases. Their manga selection is also one of the biggest and more complete than most Book Off locations.
I agree. Mandarake specializes in older materials. And, if you really want to look for that sort of thing, you are much better off searching in Nakano Broadway instead. Nakano is basically an absolute maze of stores full of second hand goods of all makes and models and types. ... Surugaya is also primarily a second hand goods store. If you are interested in figures, goods, video games, art books, and such that are not just released it is a good alternative resource. Searching the stores in Akihabara is like being buried alive sometimes.
@@wolfco47 I've spent way too much time at the Nakano Broadway.
Thank you for making this video. I ready enjoyed it and got me ideas where to go on my next visit to Akihabara
No worries! Enjoy your trip to Japan!
Really good video, thank you for showcasing so many figures rather than skipping quickly over them like others. We are going to Japan in September and looking forward to the anime dolls/bjds :)
Fantastic! Have a great trip! Yep I felt like every figure deserved some screen time, I would’ve shown a few more but my footage was a bit blurry for some reason
Such an informative video! So fun to watch, pls make more!!!
Thank you! Will do!
😍 Que hermosas figuras y que geniales presentaciones. 😃
Gracias por enseñar las tiendas. 😊
4:54 Hey I made a mistake here, I meant to say‘the shop attendant doesn’t speak much English’ !
this video is very high quality, keep up the good work sir!
Thank you! I’ll do my best!
Thats cool! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for tis video!
My pleasure!
I went to Amiami last Nov and was able to communicate with the Staff using English. Bought a few figures as well, the younger japanese staff most likely know English they understand it the problem is that they're shy to speak it.
Yeh I think it’s the shyness, the staff I spoke to was a bit older, he struggled with the Yae Sakura figure explanation (maybe he panicked a little trying to say the hair colour has changed) so I spoke Japanese to him to help a little. Regardless they were super helpful! I also went in Nov 2023 too
had a similar experince to urs, where i found myself eye shopping more than actually shopping lol, mainly cuz stuff was overpriced ( if you know ur stuff ofc ) and the luggage space as well + plus how crowded it can get that it affect ur overall visibility, i went and ordered the stuff i wanted as soon as i landed home, i managed to snip one figure (Fate/Extella Link - Scáthach - 1/7 - Makyou no Seargent) that i like from the video as well thanks lol great vid and amazing video quality!
Thanks so much for the feedback and comment! Also great figure choice glad you managed to bring one back, I saw another guy buy a grail figure but the box was so big he actually went next door to buy a hand carry! Overall totally agree with your sentiment, if you know what you want you’ll probably not take the chance to buy it here and buy it online to guarantee you get it. Window shopping was very fun but it took two days for me to see these shops and yeh being crowded etc you can easily get overwhelmed in a foreign country. However, that thrill, of when you do spot something, especially something you can’t get online in one of the shops, it’s very fun and exciting!
"Rem and another girl who I don't know she is..."
Damn do I feel old for knowing
Same..it was the N64 era! Where I played Goldeneye after school
I got the Variable action heroes Whitebeard figure for like 30$ and that sucker goes for like 200$ so you can find some killer deals if you shop around. They have some stuff there that you can't find online or sometimes they just have the stuff early it is pretty cool.
That’s a nice win! Awesome
Congrats on 1k 🎉 love the content
Thank you so much 🤗!
I don’t even collect these but that Wakamo Blue Archive figure is amazing. See why it’s the thumbnail.
At soon as you walk into the shop she’ll grab your attention, really good figure very detailed
Wonderful video! Everything about it was enjoyable, especially going from shop to shop and getting in-depth with each item and the store's stock.
Thank you!!
happy to see some GFL figures i plan to get thanks for the showcase!
No problem!!! Any particular ones?
@@otakuoverlordofficial I really want to get M4 SOPMOD (broom at the bar ver) and AK-12 figurines!
@@leandr9809 excellent choices! Both look awesome, I especially like the M4 SOPMOD's colour contrasts and her megaphone is cute
More videos of this, I love it so much that it convinces me to buy more Hahaha😂
My wallet is hurting lol
Hi, just wondering but did you visit Japan around November/December 2023? I could only tell because of the Charlotte banner ad and now it's a Chiori banner as I'm visiting for vacation.
Some tips that I won't be taking advantage of but will surely be helpful to everyone: Mandarake and AmiAmi can ship within the country for much cheaper (150 JPY and 600 JPY respectively). Mandarake can do same-day shipping while AmiAmi takes 3-4 days, but no in-store pickup.
Just want to let you know that AmiAmi 2nd is actually closed until April-July 2024 (moving to new location) and when I went there everything in that building was closed and dark (googling amiami 2nd closed should yield some Japanese links). AmiAmi at Radio Kaikan was great though, and I managed to snag Paimon/Raiden Shogun for close to Chinese MSRP at a Don Quijote in Ginza, though I haven't seen much anywhere else. Although pretty much no scale figures, Ikebukuro was also awesome with so many cosplayers and 7 floors of Animate Japan + Pokemon store.
Well spotted and thanks for letting me know about the Amiami 2nd shop! Yep I went in Nov 2023, Trader had some older Genshin items at that time if you’re still looking around (Klee and Ningguang last time I saw)
I went to Ikebukuro too! Went to the Animate cafe for a Oshi no Ko collaboration and yep loads of anime merch at the Sunshine City, loved the Pokémon shops there
Nice guide 👍
Thanks!
I bet if the sculpturing talents ever gets to make Marvel/DC movies characters here in the US they would make a lot of money.
Me while watching the whole time 😊😊☺️🤩🤩🤤🤤🤯☺️😊☺️
Haha nice thanks for watching!
Great video mate !
Trader is my go-to for prize figures, most likely to have what you're looking at the best price. Liberty (which I think you missed ?) usually also have everything but tend to be pricier. By the way, Trader will be opening a new building pretty soon, close to Don Quijote if I'm not mistaken. Otherwise, Amiami is probably my favorite shop ! Surugaya have lots of different shops, some in the streets behind the main avenue, with a wider variety and not only limited to shonen stuff. They can be a bit pricy though. There's also Lashinbang, next to where Amiami 2nd used to be. Last one that I know about, that people tend to miss because it's on the farther end of the avenue next to Suehirocho station, is Tamtam. Found some good stuff there, like the Asuka Radio Eva Part 2 at a reasonnable price.
Congrats on getting the Asuka figure! Looks like I need to go back to the holy city to explore the other shops inc Trader. I saw Liberty but just ran out of time (despite spending two afternoons here it wasn't enough), they had a lot of people that day. Ah its a shame I missed the Lashinbang, I went to the one in Osaka and it was really good! (will do a video on that), they also opened a small one in Hong Kong as well. +1 with Amiami looks like I buy most of my stuff from them in Tokyo and online too
@@otakuoverlordofficial I know right, you have to spend several days there if you want to thoroughly explore everything in that quest for the best deal or the hidden gem ! Looking forward to a video in Osaka's Denden Town, I love that place !
agreed! I only had 3 hours in Osaka for shopping ... wished I had more time
26:38 Your "Quijote" pronunciation gave me a good chuckle, haha! It's actually pronounced "keehote" with the "e" pronounced at the end. Awesome video! Hope to see more!
Haha l should’ve looked it up before hand before attempting the…Spanish word? Thanks for watching the video!
What? No. The "j" in Spanish is a "h" sound, like "hole". "Qui-hot-eh".
LMAO is not keeyote
If you are going to correct someone at least learn how to say the word first
Whaaaaaat? It's "ki, ho, te", spanish word
@@HormonalClownW I was only trying to make it easier to understand by wording it the way I did but yes, that is the actual pronunciation.
Surugaya main store (near Mandarake Akihabara) has multiple floors (bishoujo & r18 figures were at upper floors)
Ahh…that’s not a fair review I did then, I must go to the main store next time
Yes, I've heard several times that Akihabara became an "anime tourist trap". A lot of things are more expensive there, more difficult to find reasonable prices.
Yep agreed but hopefully more ppl will do a bit of research beforehand and get a good price on their figures!
Hi! A question about the lockers, can you lock stuff there for a long time? We land in Tokyo and we expect to buy some stuff there but then we are going to move around the country, sightseeing. I just want to know if I can leave my figures there for like 8 days or something 😂. Thanks!!!!
Oh I remember watching another video about that and you can’t leave it that long (I think max 24 hours), my advice is to use a luggage storage/shipping company like Yamato Transport (Kuroneko). I used them to not store but ship my suitcase from Gero Onsen town to Tokyo, they’re very good! Even deliver the suitcase to your hotel room! Potentially you could use them to send it to your final hotel and ask the hotel to store the luggage for a few days, I managed to do that for 4 days on my last trip with my hotel in Tokyo (just ask them before hand first!). Hope that helps!
That Yae Sakura figure by APEX is lovely ❤❤❤
She’s absolutely gorgeous, I hope one day I’ll get her without paying an extortionate amount…
13:30 OKITA SPOTTED (i love okita)
Tamashii Nations Gundam figures are the most expensive ones in the long term due to rarity. METAL BUILD and GFFMC are crazily expensive as second-hand if you failed to pre-order them. METAL STRUCTURE is even crazier!
I did not know that!! I need to look up on this, I still haven’t bought my first PG yet but looks like I should watch out for TAMASHII Nations preorders
@@otakuoverlordofficial GUNPLA is mostly cheap. I am talking about the Gundam product lines from Tamashii Nations ranging from Gundam Universe, Chogokin to the high-end ones like METAL BUILD, Gundam Fix Figuration Metal Composite, METAL STRUCTURE. The high-end ones are very popular in Hong Kong and China, so that's why they get sold out very quickly. I have been hunting for METAL STRUCTURE which the pre-owned price is outrageous (always above $2000) and very rare to find brand new ones. They are much rarer than overpriced high-end FuRyu figures.
@@zurinarctus1329 damn…😮
the idol shrine od lol
Hi!, I really enjoyed your video! I’m pretty new to collecting (started in January of this year) so I was curious if saving up to go to Japan and buying figures over there is worth it? Was it expensive and a hassle to take back through the airport? How do you do it? Anyways, this was a great video overall!
Heya, I would recommend going to Japan regardless, if you’ve never been it’s an amazing place and you’ll have awesome memories. If you have something specific in mind then order online to make sure you can get it, but since you’re new to collecting going to a store and seeing it in person has a lot of benefits. After all you’re spending quite a bit of money on this hobby so it doesn’t hurt to take your time! Tax free is done in the store so it’s easy, taking it on plane I isn’t bad if the box isn’t big. So those three figures I bought (which I put in the locker), I took two into the hand carry hold, actually I could’ve taken all three if I wanted to. You can put them in your check in, I did one with mine and it was ok.
One box I couldn’t fit in the hand carry or my suitcase was the Demon Rem (bought from Hong Kong), I had to put it in a card box with padding and checked it in separately
Oh one thing to be careful, Japan is strict on sharp object lengths. I had my Gundam cutter taken away because it was in my hand carry and it exceeded the length, even though it was plastic
Appreciate the time you took to respond to my question. I’ll definitely be looking into traveling to Japan. Hopefully sometime early next year. I’m currently browsing various figures website so I’ll definitely have in mind what I might like. I’ll also remember the sharp objects tip.
I noticed you’re a HI3 fan, so I hope you’re just as excited about the Elysia, Durandal, and Bronya figures as I am!
And batteries! Careful there’s no batteries just in case they open to check it.
Glad my answers helped! Have a good trip and yep super EXCITED with the new HI3 figures! I’ve preordered all of them!
25:38 are all the figures in the display for sale? Except for the sold out ones of course. If so, do i have to call a staff over to purchase them? I'm planning on going to Japan soon and it would be nice to know, thanks!
Not all displayed are for sale unfortunately, this video was taken in Nov 2023 for context too. Was there a particular one you’re looking for? Btw from the timestamp I’m assuming you’re referring to the Kotobukiya shop?
@@otakuoverlordofficial Yep, the kotobukiya store, I'm not look for any specifically just wanted to know if there are there any indications to show that they're for sale. I mean i could use google translate but I'm pretty sure there are some cases where they don't indicate anything.
Oh it has an English sign also, so don’t worry!
Most would say ‘SOLD OUT’
@@otakuoverlordofficial Thanks! great vid btw!
1:04 I believe that is Card Captor Sakura.
Yep you’re right! I noticed this today after another person pointed it out too
@@otakuoverlordofficial great video! I hope to visit the holy land soon o7
@@rougehawk indeed! Time to make the pilgrimage!
elaina wandering witch has the light novels tho and the one ya showed is based on light novel art where she against a fence
Oh I didn’t realise she has LN, I should check it out. I was a big fan of the anime, the story telling was really good and Elaina herself is never really portrayed as a ‘hero’ but as a traveller in the series. Either way I can’t wait to have the floating clouds figure!
Very based thank you.
No probs thanks for watching !
Wow. I should have never cancel my stein gate pre order.
I regret it too…it was far more impressive than the photos
Hi, I was wondering if I’ll be able to find the Abystyle deathnote Misa figure in akihabara?
I think you have a good chance! If you’re in a hurry I would show the photo to the shop attendant first and ask
That figurine is so nice
Thumbnail? It’s Blue Archive Wakamo by Nenonmax and she’s stunning!
@@otakuoverlordofficial yeah
DAMN, thats a lot money, i would say it all worth
what about lashinbang? that place is where ive found some of my favorite figures
I missed it! Went to the one in Osaka (recommend visiting) but forgot to go to the one in Akiba, to be honest I would’ve not had enough time either that trip…so much to see!
I got a question,
If i went to japan and buy figures and manga in bulk will they let me take those to my home country/ wont they stop ne at the airport or smth like that
Depends on your country I guess, for most countries it should be fine (I saw on Reddit the other day someone bought 4 suitcases of figures from Akihabara, what a legend), I had 3 check in luggages of souvenirs to the UK and there wasn't any problems. I took one scale figure in the check in luggage and 2 in my hand carry. However: 1) do check if there's any sharp objects in your hand carry figures (like sharp plastic swords), they might ask to open it and inspect, I had my gundam plastic cutter taken away 2) are there any batteries in your figurine?
11:23 ah a fellow Overlord enthusiast i see.. i feel like you're a Kurumi Tokisaki fan too
edit: Eminence too!?!? man we have so much similar tastes lmao
Hi five! Yep I’m a fan of Shadow In Eminence, I’ve got the new Beta figure preordered! I’m not going to get the Delta one though, the design they went with isn’t my cup of tea. I love the Kurumi figures but I haven’t watched the anime yet
cool vid my dude, would really appreciate it if you could us some basic sentence to communicate with the shop attendance as I got 0 Japanese skill so far.
thanks! hmm I'm not really qualified to teach Japanese but here are some sentences/words I used (forgive me if I'm wrong): 'kono PVC figure ga arimasu ka' (do you have this PVC figure - show them a photo), 'kore wa ikura desu ka' (how much is this? - might help if you had a calculator or something for them to type the number in), 'doko de kowaremasu ka' (where did it break - even if its not strictly broken would prompt them to explain some defects). Another words that can help is 'setsumeisho' which means the instruction booklet (in case its missing) and 'hako' which means box
I went to Tokyo last month and prevented myself to buy an anime figures there and better hunting online for affordable preowned still good quality and authentic! By the way I purchased a nice PS Vita there my only trophy buy in Japan!
Nice and sounds like you had a good trip! Japan still has some really good deals for second hand stuff, especially in places like Mandarake
@@otakuoverlordofficial Happy Friday friend, I got my order of preowned figures like Yuji Itadori and Eustass kid awesome plus a gachapon Star of the Giants base player no.10 .Sooooo happyyyyy!
@@otakuoverlordofficial Yes went to Mt Fuji as well but it was cloudy so only got a small peek. Akihabara was awesome so are Shibuya and Asakusa
Happy Friday! Glad to hear you got some great purchases (I’m also a JJK fan), shame about the cloud but Mt Fuji will still be there the next time you go. I should be going back this year hopefully to see if I can get my hands on other second hand figures too. I also ordered a second hand figure for the first time online, Emilia Red Crystal Dress eStream, hope it arrives in decent condition
@@otakuoverlordofficial can't wait to get your orders delivered! Yes shall be back to Japan in the near future for sure and I will zero in for the anime figures 😊
cool vid! whos at 8:09?
Thanks! It’s Girls' Frontline AK12 No Winter Area and Girls' Frontline AN94 Wolf and Fugue
You said you were a big fan of the card captor Sakura anime at 24:47 but wasn’t that the same character you said you didn’t know next to the expensive kimono quarter scale rem?
I went back and watched the footage, *facepalm* that is her, I’m too used to seeing her in her outfit. I used to watch the show on Cartoon Network back in the day.. Would you get the Good Smile figure? Looks epic
@@otakuoverlordofficial yeah the different outfit and no wand made her easy to not recognize lol I just thought it was funny! I never watched the anime tbh! I’m looking forward to the Skadi Scathatch figure Good Smile is supposed to be releasing in April! The Semiramis looked well done, too
Nice! Skadi looks great (really like purple tones and the detailing on her finger tips). GSC has been good with their quality control for me as well! I got the Zero 2 wedding dress figure from them and it is amazing. Semiramis looked awesome too in the shop
I want to have it, but I'm afraid to display it lol 😂
What's the figure at the Thumbnail and from which company. Thanks for uploading
Blue Archive Wakamo by NEONMAX, thanks for watching! If you manage to get it you won’t regret, it’s stunning
I see Wakamo I LIKE
She’s stunning!
8:30 ...Shou ga nai
I will go there no matter what!!!
100%!
@@otakuoverlordofficial 🗾 🏯 😁👍
it's better to regret for buying than regret not buying it
100% my philosophy has now changed!
what are the figures at 13:00 from?
the two at the front? Falslander Samurai and Falslander Lanze by WING
Are the figures at Amiami store more expensive than online retailing? Or is it worth it to buy it in store rather than pay with shipping?
Amiami store and Amiami online claim to have no direct affiliation with each other but I’ve found the prices in the shop to be the same or cheaper than online store. Remember you save on shipping AND get the nice 10% tax free! It’s just that you’re not necessarily guaranteed to find a specific figure you want in store, so bear that in mind!
where can i get the preorders do they export to europe?
I normally order online from AmiAmi and Good Smile Company Global and yep they ship to Europe (I’m based in UK)
Isnt the amiami 2nd closed due to building closure?
Yep only found out yesterday, they have April - July refurbishment, will reopen near Radio Kaikan. I filmed this video back in November 2023
twitter.com/AmiAmi_English/status/1753224262985678901
Some of those C or lower ratings maybe because during rating checks they shine an UV light on it and...
i think your camera lense has like dust or dirt on it 7:39 (left side theres this dark spot)
Actually that dot is there for majority of the video…sadly I only noticed near the end of my Japan trip that there was a speck of dust on my lens…sigh
Which online platform do you recommend for overseas buyer?
Amiami and the Good Smile Company global website, they’re reliable and package the figurines very well. I actually ordered from a UK company last year and they went bankrupt so I only do those two companies now. HOWEVER, Chinese figures are cheaper with more bonus items if you order from Taobao via an intermediary but I have no experience of doing it yet so can’t advise
If you do want to know more about Chinese figures, Path To Starlight TH-camr did a video on it
uhh yeah we know non-japanese folks and tourist would buy this on shelf value lol!!!.. 卍we locals know to best negotiate directly to the owner.. a few treats 10mins walk to ペッパーランチ or ラーホレ and drinks would get us LINE when they're about to unshelf cycle these..
I’m holding back on buying figurine for many reasons.
1. I’m broke, they’re expensive
2. I need my own house
3. Need a better job
4. I need display cases
5. Save money for my studies
I like them but can’t bring myself to buy them.
you're being sensible which is good as this hobby ain't cheap, tbh one of the nice things about figures is, they're like pieces of fine art, you don't have to own them to enjoy them you can just have a look
1:08 that's card captor sakura no?
Yep I’ve made a terrible mistake there!
what's the name of the figure at 7:40?
Azur lane chao, currently on sale!
www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-141817
By NEONMAX
what the name of 4:54 ?
Ashikaga Yoshiteru Battle Girls Female Figure , looks quite hard to buy online
Can you sell figures to Amiami?
You can but only in Japan I believe, there’s also Mandarake as well who buys figures, haven’t tried this myself
Soo how much did you spend there?
Its ok if you dont want to answer im just asking
No worries! Rita and Alpha cost 27,000 each and Albedo was 20,200, so total with tax free was 66,780 for three scale figures which was expensive but you won’t get cheaper than that online!
Although wanted to buy more but luggage was completely full
Oh I got two nendoroids as a gift for my family
I want the fk doraemon gate
Lol those Genshin figure prices are atrocious. I've come across them cheaper online
For the ones in Atop total agree
what what i was just there last week, it said amiami was permanently closed
Heya I just found out yesterday Amiami 2nd is doing refurbishment between April to July, the Amiami radio Kaikan store is still open

@@otakuoverlordofficial guess i'll have to come back next year
1:04 "i dunno who she is"....NUOOOOOOOOOO how could you
Yeh I feel bad after several commenters mentioned it was Cardcaptor Sakura …
@@otakuoverlordofficial well at least its just small mistake...we tend to forget stuff anyways. It would have been more of a shocked if people said Cardcaptor Sakura and you goes "whooo is that?"
Haha thanks! I did used to watch her during the N64 era when she was on TV
anyone know the name of the figure 15:41 ?
Think I found the one you’re looking for, Anigift Echocalypse Leviathan
@@otakuoverlordofficial Thank you so much man, great video btw!
No probs and thanks!
Think there's dust on your sensor
Yeh sadly only realised after filming for three days ..
C rating must be you can C it
display figures are ripped go used send hand store you may find the same figures are half price and may find one not oped but lable used.
True just takes a bit more searching, but I spent a good 30 mins looking at Rita before deciding to buy it. I nearly had a heart attack though, they struggled to remove the umbrella rod out for ten mins and had to use a hairdryer. Still it’s Japan and these people are professional so I just put a lot of trust in them
So you recognized rem….but not cardcaptor sakura. Makes me feel old.
Came out 1996 with the N64, those were the days, I actually watched Cardcaptors but just failed to recognize her without her magical girl outfit
who is at 8:02???
This one? Japanese Style TechGear Shoshuu 1/7 by WINGS
Recommending the anime 86? When best boy dies off screen (like everyone else) at the end of season 1? Nah.
Ahhhh I can’t say more without spoiling it, but yes I still recommend it. I’ll be honest I dropped it half way in season 1 and then picked it up and watched the remaining in one go
I’m at over 1000 anime watched, this is a top 10 for me. Do we need to see every death in graphic detail? The show did everything right except continuing after season 2.
@@HarryBaalzach does every death have to happen in rapid succession to give the audience the sense that there’s no point in caring about any of the characters? Idk. It’s not like a battle royal type of anime where they kill each other. I don’t like characters being fodder. I’d prefer their existence and deaths to be worth including in the story
@@Tearituplikewasabi I’m not disagreeing with you, there’s nothing wrong with being invested in characters in tragic anime. But to add context, how many parents of soldiers, sailors and airmen in real wars got any such closure? A large number of combatants were simply listed as missing in action for years, sometimes their remains were never found. Sometimes their final moments were unwitnessed. This novel and anime series deals with war in a grittty realistic way. It doesn’t seek to give closure over every life lost. And given that the front line combatants are considered ’pigs’ and nobody in the empire cares who they are/ were, that side is portrayed intentionally.
As a final example, over 30,000 victims of the initial blast at Hiroshima were simply ploughed into a huge pile and covered with soil and rubble. Very few were identified as all the town population records were reduced to ash. Only those with relatives out of town were known to be among the lost, those who were wiped out as entire families are mostly forgotten forever. War doesn’t play fair, and 86 portrayed that fact very well.
I wasted 36 minutes on this crap. I love your video, thank you for the upload.
1:09 “Another girl I dunno who she is”
Me: WUHHH???
YOU HAVENT SEEN CARDCAPTOR?
_closes vid due to disappointment_
I have and when I realised who she was I was disappointed with my mistake lol! I’m pleasantly surprised to see a lot of cardcaptor fans calling this out too
It was justt kept on stalking uss ,,... Rip she fcking eyes mate ,,...
Looking for Samurai Shodown action figure (Haohmaru and Ukyo), any idea where I can find it? Also looking for Yasou from League of Legend. Thanks!
Looks like the figures were released a few years ago I would check out Mandarake or Trader if you’re in Tokyo. Give the staff the photo(s) to save time
Excellent😢
amazing japan
question is how do we transport all these back home safely 🥲🥲🥲
Try and hand carry as much as possible! I did check in one figure and it was ok too
I just got back this week with a new suitcase. Bought it cheap in a bargain store to transport 4 scale figures packed between flat clothes to hold them in place. Got home without a mark. Wish I could have brought more, never thought of the carry on option 😨
There’s always next time! If you do try the carry on just make sure 1) no sharp objects inside and batteries 2) make sure the box isn’t too large, all the scale figures I bought in the video would’ve fit in the carry on
@@otakuoverlordofficialThere will certainly be many next times, 3 weeks didn’t even make a dent in all the things I want to do there!
BTW quick question, I got the Alpha you bought on pre order, just wondering if the skin tone on yours is as ghostly pale? She looks like she never went out in the sun .
@@HarryBaalzach yeh she is kinda pale compared to some others, very similar to the Albedo I got. Are you thinking of ordering? The other video (19 scale figures) I did has a one minute clip of her and you can see if you like her colours and details.
