Which of these cafes would you eat at if you could only choose one?
MIKU
Kirby
*ENHALES*
The Fruits Basket one
I can't decide they're all so amazing
sailor moon, all day!!
"let's be honest. you're not going to a themed-cafe because you want high quality omu rice. You're going so you can eat omu rice that looks like a cute character sleeping in an egg blanket." no words can ever be truer than this. it struck a cord 😭😭
So true-
mood TvT
*Me who has never gone to one*
Unless you go to the kirby cafe
Truer words have never been spoken
u playin gamba with the quality u get from anime cafe food
Oh hey daidus
Hi Kronk.
Maybe so, but you go to anime cafes more for the aesthetic than for the food.
what the hell are you trying to say big man
Gamba??
Oh wow so sad seeing how much the Ghibli museum cafe has changed since pre-Covid. They used fine china and silver cutlery when I visited in 2019. Hopefully they bring back that kind of atmosphere that truly gave the whole experience that “ghibli aesthetic”
I hope so. That Kiki Cake looks incredible.

emily not liking desserts goes against everything i know about her
shes said before in a drawing tablet review that shes a salt kinda girl! garlic and the like ~
lmao exactly what i was thinking
she literally doesn't eat ice cream, I don't really have high hopes on desserts..
recently melting chocolate can cause me heartburn, and no I didn't mean my HEART I meant something like a line to my stomach
a lot of east Asian folk (myself included) just don't like sweets as many of us were raised with oranges being the sweetest food
*Emily doesn't like sweets*
Also Emily: Imma order the sweetest items on the menu
This embodies 17:46 so much lol
The sweetest things looks the best sometimes oor the cutest xD
Emirichu: *My goals are beyond your understanding.*
@@CompSomAnichi yes
Emily loves cutesy stuff but not liking desserts is like
a person who loves swimming but is afraid of the ocean.
Couldn't be me
I am the latter hahaha
I am both of those types of people

24:13 - thanks to this video, I was able to make a reservation for the Kirby Café in May! I actually picked the wrong date at first, and then when I went back in literally a minute or two later to try again, almost ALL the time slots were taken - except for a handful, like six or seven - but thankfully, one of those was precisely for the time and date that I originally intended to! So when I got the confirmation emails, I made extra sure to cancel the first one. Phew, glad it all worked out. Thanks again for all the information here!
daidus: imma go on a diet
emily: here's the dessert I ordered but can't finish or won't eat
daidus: 👁👄👁
“Don’t… look at me…”
“BUT GOD, DOES THE FOOD TASTE SO GOOD”
how tf do you only have 1 reply
True
My mom:You eat too much!
Also my mom:I can't eat this can you finish it for me?
Me:*VISIBLE CONFUSION*
Emily's "I didn't finish it" reminds me of her "I haven't watched it" and just listen as Daidus mocks her for it with Erold laughing his ass off
STOP I REMEMBER THAT
You just unlocked a memory I forgot I had
EMILY LITERALLY MISSED OUT 💀💀💀
A new core memory
*EMILY WHAT THE FU-*
8:43 that is the cutest artwork I've ever saw. Why has that artist and cafe not skyrocket in popularity. I'd have the biggest smile ever from the adorableness.
When I found out Emily didn’t love dessert I was shocked especially since her style is sooo sweet

Yeah, me too
This is the literal perfect video to watch on a rainy lazy Sunday, ty Emily
Yeah, even though I'm hungry now
Hi
Schaf know what good content looks like
YH i get that
If the great schaff says its good then its good
Fun fact, if you go to the Kirby Cafe alone, the workers give you a giant Waddle Dee plush to keep you company.
That's sweet!
@@chumbusi8147 Agreed. Extremely sweet.
I love Waddle Dee! I need to go alone!
God I love the world sometimes
*welp if I go there with a friend Ill just leave the-*
As a Guy myself, i WANNA go to the GIrly cafes like Sailor Moon or the cute cat one XD
Same, dude
I agree bro
same I would go to the cat one..

Waiting 5 hours for a cafe with mediocre food sounds like a gag they’d do on nichijou tbh. They really gave you the authentic nichijou experience.
fr except there were no random deer attacks or german suplex's
That’s what I was saying when I was watching this
What do u think the secret ingredient was?
@@Kesshoban mediocrity. Deer. The slow graze of time

When I lived in Japan, I went to the Pompompurin cafe myself and it was so much fun! I also went by myself and the staff asked me if I was alone and when I said yes, they sat a HUGE Pompompurin across from me so I wouldn't feel lonely. I went when I had just arrived in Japan and was still a little uncomfortable and I think they saw that. It was great!
that is actually adorable 🥺 pompompurin eating with you !!
That is so cute!!
I've heard they do that at the Pokémon cafe too, that they'll seat a Pikachu with you.
Wow, that’s so cute!
That's adorable and so sweet of the staff
The pompompurin cafe looked the best to me ngl, IT WAS SOOOOOO CUTE
5:29 bursting into tears at how happy you are in the moment is a very Tohru thing to do haha
It’s very fitting that everything went wrong for you at the Nichijou café of all places. It’s like a metaphor for life.
I didn't even think of it that way. That is pretty funny.
The fact that Emily immediately started crying when she took one bite of the katsudan made me think of her as an even bigger anime fan girl 😂
Don't blame her, I'm a sucker for katsu don though (or any other rice bowl LOL)
Taking a bite of something and being so overwhelmed with joy is probably one of THE most anime things you can do at a cafe lol.
Katsu's real tasty, so I don't really blame her.
the ghibli cafe was so cute. it looked so cozy and I loved the atmosphere and the atmosphere of the surrounding city. not like I’m biased because I love every ghibli movie and haven’t really watched any of the other ones here, excepting the Sanrio characters, Kirby, and Pokémon.
Emi: it’s so cute, but too sweet
Daidus: STOP ORDERING DESERTS
I love how Japan always feels the need to create a cafe for anything AND I LOVE IT
They need a cafe for cafes
i wish it was like that in other countries
!! i need my aesthetic ghibli cafes bro
@@PixeIated after that they should make a cafe for cafe for cafe
I love how they respect their cartoons (well anime but they are still cartoons)
@@myrto3494 SAME! I WANT TOTORO
I like how Emily is like, “now I know the guys are probably bored” while I’m sitting here like “man that sailor moon food looks great” and “It’s a shame the Nichijou cafe didn’t work out” lol. Nichijou is easily in my top 3
I found this funny too because she hyped that segment up, and Jujutsu Kaisen Cafe was the only one I was not interested in XD
Meanwhile, I'm here just gushing at all the cute stuff and smiling like a madman at the kitty cafe
7:44 That looks like its burned, kinda funny.
but i would never go there since i get very stressed in public spaces, especially when there are loud cars or trams and people.
I also don't like the idea of having a lot of new food as like dinner or breakfast or something, but you do, so thanks for making this video and getting me some of that experience.
Weebs try not to be shy challenge 0% (Impossible)
JK lol.
Ah I have autism and am the same way. I’m so grateful for videos like these where we can live vicariously ❤
@@pokelover02same
Aww. I knew Mouse would be so excited for the cinnamon roll café, so that is super sweet of you to get her stuff. I know already that she will love whatever it is.
Emily: I have bought you Cinnamoroll stuff.
Mouse: FRIENDS FOR FREAKING LIFE!!!!!!!!
The cafes are hard carried by the aesthetic but the aesthetic is SO GOOD
Hey patterz
fancy meeting you here of all places pat ^^
Fancy meeting you here
Hi pat! Wanna see your reaction to wiglett soon!
every video I go you're here 👋
If you ever want free desserts, force Emirichu to bring you along!!🤣🤣🤣
I'll remember that.
I'm not sure she'd approve of MY free desserts.
@@jeffreygao3956 Do I wanna know what that is?
@@thomasjess5029 Beef jerky.
@@jeffreygao3956 wtf
23:23 I wish that was what a McDonald’s burger actually looked like 💀💀
McDonald propaganda in anime…
What I loved about the Kirbo cafe, and I'm surprised this wasn't shown, is that the entrance has a big Kirbo and Waddle Dee plush in front of a big dish on a wall. Customers can take pics with the cafe's themed big spoon and fork. And to the side are smaller Caf'e Kirbos waiting to serve ya.
Even real life Emily is living in an anime world; prove me wrong.
I can't. ^_^
No no sir, you are right
Emily is now in her natural habitat
Omg the Studio Ghibli and Sailor Moon cafes look 😍😍 so fkn cute ! Legitimately canNOT wait to visit and go see the Square Enix cafe !
Elo sultan
Things I learned this video: A brunch of cool cafes with cute themes and food items.
Things I also learned in this video: Emily has the stomach of a child and can rarely finish a meal. Just order off the kids meal you dingus! Smaller portions.
17:54 subtitles are really cursed
The best part about the Kirby Cafe is that you can buy the soundtrack that plays there! It's a collection of chill and jazzy arrangements of various Kirby tunes from throughout the series, and there are TWO volumes!!
Emily: I wasn’t a huge fan of the plastic screen thing they had because it made sharing food difficult
Japan’s Covid Policy: THATS THE POINT 😂
😂😂😂
The point was for it to work like a mask, because you have to take it off when you eat, not to prevent people from sharing food, it's just like plastic screens in other places. If they didn't want people to share food they would have a law for it.
@@werrkowalski2985 It's supposed to be common sense. Covid is passed just like any other cold or flu, so not sharing food should be a no-brainer.
@Anti-Dumbsville (Commentary NiggaFag Killer) nice typing
Personally I can't wrap my head around separating customers that arrived together. Maybe if the screen were around the whole table but the weren't which was really just hindering the dining experience without preventing Covid at all.
FR lol
I'm trying to convince my sister to take me to Japan so I wanna go to the cinnamoroll and pompom cafe!
Be careful
@@jamesjamka ?
@@soupy55He probably said that as @mitsuri69 said he was trying to convince his sister to take them to Japan, so it might seem like it's just a couple of teenagers/young adults. So he warned them to be careful as even Japan isn't even all rainbow and sunshine.
22:07 *jaiden running to the Pokémon cafe to go to the Pokémon center to buy more Pokémon plushies*
7:26 The way he speaks calmly and politely to Emily to wait for even more is so nightmarish 💀
Is this Joey? It kind of sounds like Joey's Japanese.
I'm amazed how fast Emily made friends she's comfortable enough to fangirl at anime cafes.
Me too!
That’s real friendship.
21:55 wtf do you mean "presentation isnt good"? That looks pretty good to me. Got a lot of skill and visual appeal. its not flamboyant, but dam it looks tasty.
these vlogs give me soo much serotonin ahhhhh
I love how Mouse just recruits her friends to buy her cinnamon rolls
but we all know who's the biggest dealer here XD
Her army grows.
I can definitely see Emily being the Gordon Ramsay of cafes.
But she's so much nicer! ^_^
nah
I think she's a little two nice
That's Meilyne
@@RIME387 I think she's more of a Joe Bastianich
The best thing about the Kirby Cafe has to be the two unique albums HAL did for the cafe music it's all super good
I'm 100% doing this when I visit.
Didnt ask
Take a shot every time Emirichu says "Not too sweet". Cracks me up how much she is not a fan of sweets.😂 Couldn't be me.
I love sugar but when I taste some jank heavily processed food that just has some bland sweat taste I throw it away, so I get her point.
@@loneXolf Word.
Most stuff is Just way too sweet.
My Mom Always reduced the sugar Part in every cake, Cookies, etc we Made. And i do so too. But whenever i buy cake or Cookies they are way too sweet for me (Same with Salt) less is more people.
Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
"Stop ordering desserts and not eating them!": I sympathize entirely! They all looked so tasty! 😭🤤
Diadus is the embodiment of rational in their relationship, and I don't know what that says about Emirchu XD
Moving to or at least visiting Japan is my biggest dream ever, and hearing these cafes honestly fuels it! Sadly I’m 15 and don’t have a job to save up the money to go but one day I hopefully will
I'm 20 now, but same 😓
"Where are the manly cafes?" I love these cafes so much that I don't even care if they're girly! I want to go to so many of these SO BAD!
The Monster Hunter cafe is very "manly" and had really good food!
The Nichijou Cafe experience of Emily is definitely a Nichijou Experience.
Yes, it’s so meta because nichijou means mundane daily life…….so she has to cope with the reality of boring mundane quality of cafe not surpassing your expectation. Like IRL aka nichijou LOL
The Yukko cafe experience.
@@0xD1CEow shit I can imagine the first time you go to this cafe with a very limited Japanese knowledge......and you don't know how to read the menu well...just like yukko in Starbucks LOL
shoutout to those who watched emi plan out her whole itinerary on that one twitch stream :
Remember at 5:30. Deru saw Emirichu, first sniff the food, take a bite and then tear up from the joyous culinary experience.
The Kirby, Pokémon, and Straw-hat café's looked amazing. Would definitely visit them if I ever get the chance. I'm sad I won't be able to go to the Sailor Moon cafe! It looked so cool, and I'm tearing up just seeing it! ;_;
My childhood....... *sob*
I can already tell that your drawing skills improved heavily, Emiri. It looked so good! I also didn't mind the cute/shojou cafe stuff. I enjoy those too.
As for me? There's is truly only one cafe/restaurant I ever wanna go to in Japan. And thats the Kamen Rider The Diner. :3
Ill try that one next !!
X3 well, I hope you do enjoy it? It's mostly a restaurant made for Kamen Rider fans. So expect a lot of "shonen" energy from it. XD But I do hope you enjoy it and hopefully also enjoy your viewing into Kamen Rider as well?
Heck yea! A rider fan in the wild!

She always does.

Poor Daidus at 24:36.
Poor him indeed
For people who don’t know much about Kirby, the car-mouth cake is actually an item at the waddle Dee cafe in Kirby and the forgotten land, which I think is really cool!
The kirby burger item can also be bought from the cafe and in-game :)
That pompompurin cafe….I’m obsessed with the interior 😭😭😭🍮
Come over i will take you !!!
@@Emirichu ON MY WAY
@@ShikiMiyoshino lol
As a guy I would be too shy to go to the cuter places by myself, but I would wholeheartedly unironically enjoy going to them with friends. Seems like some super cozy atmospheres even if I don’t know most of the things being referenced 😊
Don’t be afraid, you have a God given right to enjoy cute things in public. True gender equality!
when she said some of the fellas might have already checked out by this point due to the girly cafes, I was like nah, fruits basket was a solid show and I've been looking forward to watching nichijou, I would probably go to those if I could.
Heck yeah, live your best life!
I would absolute be your fellow brother-in-arms to go to these cute cafes! Such things make me feel happy, fuzzy, and warm ^^.
Don't be shy, you have God and anime on your side! Go to the frilly, fluffy, cutesy cafe!
when I heard 'Straw Hat Cafe', my mind INSTANTLY THOUGHT IT WAS A ONE PIECE CAFE AND I WAS SOO EXITED... but then I realized it was in the Ghibli Museum so that would make zero sense- 🥺
Yeah me too
Same.
Using Joey as an example of "The Boys" for the JJK cafe is pretty funny especially if the guy has openly said JJK is mid 🤣
I was feeling down today because of college, and then this video popped up on my recommendations 😭 I don't know how to explain it but the way you seemed so happy about the places that you visited made me feel happy too
I live in a very rural, non-culturally diverse, extremely conservative Christian area, and watching your video is really reminding me of my adventures going to Kinokuniya back at home and being able to find fellow anime fans anywhere. This is making me want to start a go fund me to just create an anime shop right in the middle of the small country town I live in XD oh how I miss this experience!
I wish to venture and take interest in cultures despite my strict christain up bringing
@@xdsmile5359 I hope so too! I don’t know where you are but, are used to live in North Jersey, and it was very diverse there definitely in comparison. There is this town called Edgewater, and there’s a pretty sizable Japanese ethnic community there. There is mature, a Japanese grocery store and HomeGoods store, and along that strip mall is also Daiso, Kinokuniya and Little Japan.
@@xdsmile5359 Cringe
@@xdsmile5359 just do it, dont let your families judmental views block you from pursuing what you enjoy!!!
Sounds like paradise tbh, haha
Hi Emi! I'll be travelling to Japan for the first time in February and I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE CAFE VIDEOS, they really cut down the overwhelming anxiety of travelling into a new country with basically no geographical knowledge AT ALL. Thank you , thank you!
i see the point of going to themed cafes (or themed anything) and the price point for them to be just that experience.
kinda like going to a casino, you’re not honestly gonna get what you pay for on paper. but the experience, vibes, fun stuff to see and do is the whole point really. and that’s what the cost is for. similar to theme/amusement parks
Everyone absolutely must listen to the soundtracks for the Kirby Cafe. Sadly, they got taken down from youtube but you can find them online elsewhere very easily. The madlads somehow remixed a dark, dire boss theme for an eldritch abomination of a final boss fallen angel into something super chill and relaxing for the soundtrack, 10/10 please listen to the soundtrack!
100% agree. I imported the CD for the Kirby Cafe music because it's just that worth it.
I was feeling pretty down, but watching this video cheered me up :)
Emily's videos are always really good for cheering me up and just being a quick cosy watch
Whenever I get an anxiety attack at night, I listen to Emily’s Café videos because Emily’s voice brings me comfort for some reason.
I went to the Pokémon cafe and I legit expected it to not be so good but we all finished all the food and left satisfied. I didn’t even expect to like it since most reviews say it isn’t the best but we all liked it 🤷♀️
Most reviewers say its food that isnt meant to be eaten
I'm happy to hear that's not the case

@@askredditstudios8055 god isn't real wdym?
@@lillith7257 It's about standards, a lot of people probably go expecting a lot of high quality for the price and hype.
I can only hope they make a character with a design similar to Alysia for Genshin. I'm too deep into that to play both, but her design is everything. So much PINK 😭
These videos have very quickly become comfort videos for me
I NEED to go to the Kirby Cafe at least once in my life, and yes I will but just about everything from the merch store. Also the Pompom one was a very clean and cute aesthetic even though Mocha is my favorite sandrio character. I'd love to go to a fruits basket themed one as well but idk if they have and specifically for that.
The straw hat Cafe definitely looks like a place Luffy would devour lol
I’m literally appalled by how many desserts emirichu left on the table
Same. Just give them to me.
Alternate title: Emily complaining about the DESERTS being TOO SWEET
I prefer my deserts sandy
@Zain Majumder **confusion**
@@jirou30 You spelled "desserts" wrong, so instead it sounded like you were talking about the places where cactuses grow.
@Zain Majumder Ohhhh I’m stupid smh🤦🏼♀️
11:11 that looks pretty as fuck, the toasting stamps are a nice idea. What an interesting way of using coloured gelatin, so colourful.
I watched Ponyo all the time when I was younger without realizing it was an anime until I got older
Having a partner means having someone to share your life with. It ALSO means having someone to eat what you don’t want or can’t finish.
It makes me kinda happy that Nichijou's cafe has such a large crowd, since I heard that anime was underappreciated in Japan
Nichijou seems to be one of those cult classics that bombed on release, but became beloved as it aged. The clips of the anime have millions of views and are flooded with Japanese commenters.
Its crowd was also definitely contributed by the fact Emily had attended the week it was closing.
Thanks Emily for this detailed and comprehensive anime cafes video!
7:38 A recreation of the shrine scene from Nichijou!
23:37 pikamong us.
Emily's video: beautiful video of 12 anime cafes
Daidus's video: "DUDE! they got a thing you can put your umbrella in so it doesn't drip all over the place!!"
I love how you include quite a bit of Japanese! It’s really cool and helpful for practicing, plus your videos are just very entertaining in general.
IM FEELING SO UNBELIEVABLY PECKISH RIGHT NOW AAAAAA THIS IS AMAZING
Themed cafés are now on my tourism checklist. Thank you Emily.

+ Fans: >:(
- Emirichu: "Because I've saved that for another video"
+ Fans: :D
Love this kind of content. Please dont stop making these. I went to the Ghibli museum. I was one of the first ones in and still couldn't get in at the cafe. There was a little hotdog stand next to it which I had to settle for.
Not me consistently being unable to discern which parts of the food were edible, vs which were not 🤣 It's all too cute to tell
OMG Arina Tanemura cafe?! Full Moon was my first manga ever, before I even knew what that was, and she sparked my deep dive into art, the way I draw hair is still greatly inspired by her style. So happy to know her works are still being recognized and celebrated XD
you know it's a good day when there's a new Emirichu video.
why yes it is
Wise words
You know that the op wants likes when he comments this without even seeing the video
And like I have seen he same comment a million of types in soo many videos
I have a bad day today and this video cures it. My mood is good again
I was randomly recommended this video. Super happy I clicked. Your tone and voice are soothing, and I like how you describe everything. It was a nice comment about how the Pokemon cafe flavors are geared toward children. That is a super sweet consideration! Never been to Japan but I've always wanted to go to anime cafes, knowing I'll be over charged for the character themed items. I guess I'll have to try several out to find something yummy... my guess is it's like Disney. Cute, on theme, expensive but you might find something worth snacking on.
I went to a One Piece cafe and aside from everything in site being themed after it, the food was some of the best I've had in my life.
Damn,this is already like a field trip full of cafe,i can't imagine how much did she spends to visit all of this places. Anyway, it's really cool to see a lot of theme cafes in Japan,and can't say that I'm not jealous or anything. But, it's still good. Thanks for showing the different type of theme cafe Emily-san. ❤️❤️
It's rly sad how there aren't as much cute cafes to go to in the US... there should be more TT
I would suggest looking up cat cafe's near you if u arent alergic to cats
I am starting to see more "Japan style stuff" in my area so maybe Cafes like that aren't too far behind? We can only hope right?
@@Drag0nmaster Apparently there was one that opened up nearby before covid but then it closed TT
@@Zodia195 yeee i have seen some cute Japanese stores here and there but no cafes sigh
There are actually a decent amount of anime cafe themed food truck pop ups with limited edition merchandise. I know of a Sanrio one and I think there is a Sailor Moon one as well as Pokémon... but usually they are a bit more regional or exclusive to California, NY or Chicago.
A note of warning: The $10 price tag of the Ghibli Museum may have a big asterisk next to it. Admittedly, I haven't been there since 2016 (despite the fact that I've lived within walking distance of it since 2020!), so the pricing may have changed by now... but back in 2016, it was only $10 if you were a Japanese resident. If you were a tourist visiting Japan (as my friends and I were at the time), it was nearly 8x that price.
And while it would be a fantastic museum for 1100 yen or whatever the price is for residents, it was a slight letdown for the 8000+ yen we were forced to pay. Still a worthwhile experience, but the price-gouging for foreign tourists was borderline offensive. I HOPE that's no longer the case in 2022, especially with the borders opened back up again, but I felt it was worth noting, at least, in case it is.
Absolutely love your honesty and find your overall style very charming and refreshing. Entertaining video, thank you! Cool whip on vegetable drinks sounds abysmal. I was just thinking you seemed to prefer sweetness in refreshing beverages when you notice the same thing about yourself!
As someone who is lactose-intolerant, I enjoy vicariously experiencing most of these cafes - nice to look at, but limited in what I can consume (lactase pills are a last option for me, since I don’t eat dairy due to inflammatory problems).
