just a little day in my life living in tokyo alone doing otaku stuff 🌸 I was really excited for the Cardcaptor Sakura exhibition but it was mostly just photos lolll but the goods were...good!!!
I really love going to anime popups and such here, so I'm glad I was able to make it...but if you're coming later this year, there is going to be a CLAMP exhibition, so watch out for that!! I love exhibitions, but you really never know the quality, especially because most of them actually don't allow much filming if at all hehe

Amazing video. Dogs were very cute. And the CCS exhibition looked like fun.
BTW, I don't think the Harry Potter store is a pop-up. It was already there March last year. Unless it's a really long pop-up.
01:58 "He's late, and he's eating." Gurl, he is doing a *lot* more than that.
I've been playing FFXIV for over 11 years now, I'd say it's my favorite game. Beginning is rough, but stick too it, there's so much story to see, characters to learn, and worlds to explore. Love to see someone I love to follow enjoying the same things I do. ❤Also we're keyboard buddies!
ffxiv is seriously so good!
people say "don't skip the story" for ff14, but honestly the early hours were so rough for me, that i would have quit if i hadn't skipped. if thats the case, then its better you skip it and then come back to the story if youre curious.
early levels on keyboard and regular mouse is okay, but as you level up you'll get like 20 skills that you gotta use semi regularly. if you struggle to reach your entire keyboard with one hand, and only have a regular mouse (as opposed to an MMO mouse with a dozen buttons) look into plugging in a ps4/5 controller, it was such a gamechanger for me and my tiny baby hands.
have fun!
02:23 What an adorable doggo. I believe this is the first time I've ever seen a golden retriever in Japan.
Same, I prefer minimal merch than over the top.
Moving to Japan from Florida later this year. Love your vids my fellow Floridian !
🐊🐊🐊
I hope you enjoy Japan, the USA has become so violent even i was brutally assaulted last year.
Feet size trick, for most people the length of their foot is the same as the length of their forearm from their wrist to their inner elbow. Good for eyeballing shoe sizes. 👍
Loved seeing the doggies! And all the cool shops at the mall. I'm visiting in November! So excited!
Allison, do you ever think about doing more beauty and fashion content? It would be so cool to see you try Japanese style beauty treatments, hair, make-up, makeovers, etc. And wouldn't it be fun for you, too? I love seeing makeovers and transformations in the popular styles of different countries.
Embossed when the outline has a relief.
I recently started watching Cardcaptor Sakura on Netflix. So cute! I love it! ❤
Final Fantasy Yay!! Great character, enjoy gaming, my bff games 8+ hours a day yay!!
Interesting how most items cost roughly the same. Though getting the correct size, when everything comes in a plastic bag is the real gamble. Also, White Mage all day. Tip! Don't stray to far from the main story line until you finish "Grand Companies". You'll finally unlock the ability to use mounts and get a free Chocobo. Then wonder to all the side quests.
Allison, how does the Miffy bag hold up? Those fluffy types of bags are so cute but all I worry about is dirt and grime 🤣
FFXIV gets so good later on, I'm not sure any game can ever compare to it for me. I've cried multiple times. You got this!! Early MSQ is very slow but it is so worth it
Thank you and I thought it was awesome
Sakura merch is so cute ! I want 😍 Played final fantasy but got bored pretty quicky. Main scenario is horrible
OMG Allison kawaii cutest bunny rabbit ears purse ever!!!
Used to be obsessed with Cardcaptor too back in high school and college, especially with the soundtrack. And now I get to share the anime with my 9 year old daughter and she loves it too. Btw, Allison, I think your room’s ceiling light might be too white. A warmer bulb will really warm up the room and your skin tone. Unsure if it’s possible to change it in an apartment.
I'm in Japan rn and it's awesome! Your videos helped a lot. Everything is super affordable and the people are nice
I haven't left and I can't wait to be back
Those slippers looked super comfy! I don’t blame you going on a little shopping spree, I would do so too with my fav anime 🫠
I feel the subtle merch vibe. My favorite type of merch is clothing, that just looks like regular clothing, unless you know what it is. A friend of mine has the Steinsgate timer thing on one of his shirts and it is awesome!
Thanks for the grand vlog, Allison. Josh's moustache is too kawaii handsome oh my!!
I am thinking of starting to watch Cardcaptor Sakura. I am a huge Sailor Moon fan, and people say if you like Sailor Moon you will love it. ❤
I enjoy your background music and your adventures in Japan!
I have to ask! What’s your favorite Sakura outfit? 🤩 Sakura probably got me paying more attention to fashion than any other show at the time I watched it.
That was quite a day! ❤that you had such a great time. And you will definitely be a 🐶 owner one day🤞
I just started playing FFXIV too, been having fun. Learning the ways of the Lancer, have fun! 🎉
Oooh ffxiv is super good! I'd love to watch a playthrough from you!
Yay, another Allison video! 🎉 I think your pillow might be punch needle - that's what it looks like to me. All the merch looked so nice! I loved the Harry Potter bags! ⚡👓
Love all the Sakura merhc you got! I would also spend way too much lol it's impossible not to. Also good luck with ffxiv!! ARR is definitely a bit rough to get to but once you get to Heavensward and the later expansions, the story is SO amazing! There is an insane amount of stuff to do in the game as well! I hope you enjoy it to the fullest!
Huhu!!! I love Cardcaptor Sakura ❤🥹 And those Harry Potter bags are so nice!
Thanks for taking us with you to those places I love it specially the Merch. ❤
The fringe needs to make a dramatic comeback 💁♀️
Alison, are those poor dogs drugged? I am so glad to hear they jump into your lap of their own volition and you can take them on walks, that makes me feel sooo much better. You videos always give me a different insight into less traditional parts of Japanese culture. Cheers, Muffy from Oz. (Australia)
I'm so happy to see that you're having an amazing time Allison ❤ and reading all these people in the comment saying they are going to move to Japan makes me even more happy! I'm having a hard time looking for a job there for the work visa T_T hope to find it soon!
13:34 the slippers, so cute!
I want two pairs of doofenshmirtz's peter the panda slippers, one to wear and one nrfb. =^.~=
I’d definitely continue on with XIV if you can get through the main story of ARR, as it really picks up when you get to the first expansion. I’ve been playing for almost 12 years, and luckily they’ve streamlined a lot of stuff for newer players these days!!
Loved seeing all the stuff you picked up at the Cardcaptor exhibition, thanks for another great vid!
Looks like a fun day!
Cute doggies! Glad to hear this one wasn't sketchy. I haven't gone to any as I never know how ethical they are with the dogs treatment.
Why not a cat? Your space is plenty for a sweet cat.They're a bit more independent, and sleep for half the day. I may be biased though as a current cat owner😂 I still love dogs and grew up with one though so I understand!
Been playing FFXIV on the NA datacenter since 2016 or so. Yeah the starting storyline is rough (I hear they streamlined it a bit); but it starts to get better once you get to the HeavensWard expansion stuff (it's now part of the F2P package - when I started in 2016, F2P ended at level 30 way before HW, now you can play to Lvl 70 - which is up through the Stormblood expansion.) I pretty much stick to DPS jobs- I have a Lvl 90 Hyur and my main/favorite job is Monk; but I've made it to Lvl 90 on Dancer and Reaper as well; 83 on Paladin and 67 on Gunbreaker. I still find the game and all the obvious Anime references in it fun or I wouldn't still be playing it.
Loved seeing the doggies.lovely video 👍🥰
Oh, the Gifu mug!! I love it, where'd you get it? Several years ago Starbucks had tumblers that represented each prefecture and I bought myself a Gifu one. But then I broke it, wah!! When I returned to Japan last year I wanted to get something similar, but the current SB merch in Japan is so boring, imo. I did get a very pretty year of the dragon tumbler at a Hong Kong Starbucks, though.
You’ll find your soul mate when the time is right 🥰 don’t worry, you’re still young.

Harry Potter 😢💚
That one guy IS the dog whisperer. ❤🐕🐾🐩🦴❤
Ayeeeee FFXIV! I also play! :3
It is 100% worth sticking with it :D
A twitch account and play Final Fantasy on there or do IRL‘s of Japan and Tokyo. There are Japanese and Americans that do that in Japan and apparently you couldn’t make some money doing that not everybody but it’s a way to spread your social media more I think you’d be good at it, take a look at others are doing it in Japan and you can do Twitch and TH-cam now together that’s new
I love the anime/manga shirts from Japan. Sizing is always a challenge. If I wear a US L/XL, what Japanese size should I look out for?
how do you tell if a dog cafe is a shady one or not when on vacation?
Love!!!!

I think our generation has a consumption problem is that just me or does anyone else feel like we are all overly pressured to spend spend spend. I like seeing $$ in my bank versus a top I’m gonna throw out in like 3 months cause it’s pilling a ton or the trend changed and I don’t like it anymore. Any recommendations on good quality brands that last a long time and make less waste?
I love the dog café, I’m thinking about getting a doodle myself here. But I like you and my lifestyle sometimes doesn’t seem like the right fit.
By the way, just a sidenote, dogs have chakras too. That’s why they like to cuddle with us. It’s like an energy exchange.❤
And I wish they had those noise level meters at all construction sites. Noise pollution has become a real issue. And I don’t think people even realize it.
☺️☺️☺️😊😊😊
final fantasy is free to play?
Hello Allison 😊
I don’t mean to spam but I left this comment under 1 of your videos a while ago. As it’s an older one (the most recent Q & A video) I figured I would leave it on a newer video for a better chance of getting an answer 😅
I hope it’s ok to do so.
Have a lovely week ❤
“Ohhh Hello Allison! I enjoy watching your videos so much, they are always so informative and fun! I literally live vicariously through you 😅. I have been thinking about Japan for so long, I hope I can make that dream come true soon. You talked about filling taxes for your TH-cam channel. I have some question about that: did you register/declare your channel as soon as it started bringing some income? Were you still a student when you did that? Is it possible to have a side business as a student without getting in trouble? I am a small art business owner, I want to know if I could still run it on a student visa. Thank you 😊”
😊
OKAY THIS IS RANDOM BUT IS YOUR LITTLE DIGITAL CLOCK, THE WHITE ONE ON YOUR DESK, FROM NITORI?
it looks like one from ikea, that for some reason, seems to be exclusive to japan :'c
The apartments look different than in NA as in not pretty at all.
In Japan you don't "touch grass" 😄 you go "touch dog/cat"..
..or owl or hedgehog or bunny or .......
😞 Poor dogs! 🐶 Cruel to the core, couldn't anyone see that Golden retriver gasping for air??? They were not cuddly people they were bore 2 death.
Are there Japanese adults who have out grown this kiddish behaviour?
Dont like? dont visit
No need to explain/justify the prices of the Sakura merch - It's SAKURA 🌸🩷
