A Week in Tokyo 23
(
179)
Sun 2008/08/24 15:41
Particularly busy in Tokyo this week. Major milestone completions, Portal redesign launch and filming - an extremely fulfilling week. Next week will be filled with external meetings, Chara Hobby, server migrations to be followed the following week by more major TV network filming and if all goes well the launch of one of my clients English websites.
Cant mention which news network carried out the filming but will announce once its on air - you will be able to see it online. Here you see us going through a box of puchi nendoroids.
Out of all the media appearances I've made, this one is the biggest and pretty much covers the entire globe. They cover my work in Tokyo and film me working with one of my clients at their office which also gives them exposure too. The news feature wil also be the first news network to announce a certain thingy ^^; Very much looking forward to this one.
Comrades who are website owners will know that I try my best to channel traffic to their sites instead of attempting to keep everybody behind a silo - will continue to carry out my duty of sharing because sharing is good for everyone.

And then we hit Shibuya for some filming of Japanese Girls ^^;

Name that JR station.
Mc Dees are doing 100 yen for each of these deals. Anybody thought "Shanna" as soon as you saw this?
The lovely Kaho on my to-meet list.
The mascots for Sato Pharmaceutical. They can be seen outside pharmacies but don't usually wear T-shirts.
Its the half boiled egg on Pizza time again.
Fancy having your feet massaged for 35 mins at a laughable 4,200 yen?
Or how about a shoulder massage - 10 mins for 1,050 yen.
Kaisen Yakisoba - 1,050 yen. Mikuru and Nunchucks - priceless (because shes a SAF) ^^;
Getting decent shoes in my size in Tokyo is a pain. I'm a UK size 10 and not many places do that size. I had to go all the way to Kichijoji where the head Nike store is just for these trainers. They were about 7,000 yen.
I would have thought that with the change in Japanese eating habits that the lads would have bigger feet by now. Anybody here have the same problem?
I usually get my shoes when I'm overseas. The last batch of shoes I got was from LA last year.

The busy schedule causes me to eat at odd times now and then - fast food to the rescue.
There is something about being in Mc Dees which creates an atmosphere that allows you to easily ponder stuff as you look out the window. I've spoken to many Japanese friends who feel the same too. Maybe Mc Dees are sticking something in the coke ^^;
"It is an outlet for the personal computer. Please use it freely."
Many folks in the media are writing that the iPhone boom is over now that everywhere seems to have them in stock and the monthly payment has dropped from 7,280 yen to 2,990 yen.
Shopping for groceries.
The colonel gets in the Matsuri mood.
Shop selling second hand stuff which seems to be getting more n more popular. You is being having second hand stuff around the house?
Half boiled egg on peas n bacon - about 200 yen.
Meitaiko Spaghetti with seaweed - about 400 yen.
Stuffed animals are not given any dignity over here.
More half boiled egg shenanigans in a kaisendon set - 880 yen.
Meeting up with some readers including Nekoguchi, Windbell and Adun. While I don't get to meet all readers who contact me due to the schedule, I do manage to get away once in a while.
The manga version of Ronald.
Sour Salmon with vegetables - 800 yen.
Dusting and cleaning before the TV crew arrive ^^;
Mos rice burger and chilli chicken.
Clint Eastwood makes it to Pachinko.
Mikuru Uncho joins me for lunch.
That red shirt is designed for dogs...
As you may have guessed by now, raw or half boiled eggs are part of the Japanese diet. Are you the type who only eats eggs well done? Have you tried raw egg while in Japan?
Scrambled egg okonomi yaki.
Some dessert after an afternoon of coding ^^;
Getting the battery changed after 3 years.
Cost about 12,000 yen for a new Eneos battery.
If there is one thing I love about Japan its the roadworks. They always have little men waving their mini light sabers guiding pedestrians and traffic.
You know exactly when the roadworks are going to finish. These guys are going to be finished on the same day at 6PM.
The roadworks back in the UK were terrible. They went on forever and if you peeked in the holes left in the road you would see traffic cones and always newspaper.
The roadworks in Seattle were pretty bad too which also went on forever. Roadworks go on forever in your region or come and go swiftly?

A new Kanu figure - review soon.
New figures arrive every week and seem to be spending more time dusting and figuring out what stays or what goes ^^;
On average, how often do you get a new figure?

Hmmm. First post? or not? xD I just started collecting figures this year so I can't gauge it for now, but I dream that I could get a figure every week to spice up my life. xD

I'm a poor guy that doesn't have any money for figures....I need a job. But If I don't graduate there is no job. Mehh...Study instead I must. The only figures I actually have that could count as them is a huge gundam wing toy and some figures I won from a contest from a game called Manga Fighter. My life long dream is to have a Kosmos V4 figure. I may never realize that dream. But that is the figure that has left me in awe since the first time I saw it on the internet.

It's a shame, I can eat almost ANYTHING, I love food, especially Japanese food, but raw egg is one thing that I have never been able to staand the taste of, Suppose that when I finally make it over there, I'm going to need to either learn to like raw egg, or just skip raw egg meals all together, looks like Danny does a good deal of raw egg eating.

Wow. Busy life indeed. Oh and I'm sorry. I need my eggs done. As for figures, I think I mentioned this already, but I get 3 or 4 figurines a year. So, I get a figure every few months. I have to start being careful though. I don't have a lot of room left to work with.

I went to HK awhile back and over did it with the figure buying. Seeing the prices there compared to the prices you see here in Canada gave me a case of the crazies. I am now exercizing a lot of self-discipline... And road repairs here in Toronto can last for over half a year to a year. Traffic suffers. It could be because everyone here is laid back and have no pressure to work harder than they need to.

Once every year, because I only buy them at events. Though this year I bought figures 3 times already, at 3 different events... Waiting to see Danny musings on video! :D

i sometimes have problems buying shoes as well. not because stores don't have my size, it's because US9,10 are common sizes and they are sold out fast. road works here can goes for a few days to weeks. but they get the job done well. i'm buying lesser figures now as most of my money now goes to the armour/accessories and photographic equipments.

"Roadworks go on forever in your region or come and go swiftly?" Nah, they take forever to complete. And the quality of the work sucks. It seems that the planning stage is the weak spot.

looking forward to your next media appearance, could you at least tell us what language it will be in? about the question, I use to get gundams and/or figures every weekend. these few weeks however has been really slow. probably every two to three weeks. btw might I ask whose cheerleader body is Nendroid Mikuru using?
(ID #276577) Posted on 2008/08/24 18:14
working to pay for figures etc.
Around here they keep lines of cones and signs in place for months after the roadworks are actually finished. The only problem here is finding decent shoes because I don't like trainers... loads of cheap ugly rubbish but good shoes are as hard to find as good women. I was told there is a risk of salmonella from raw eggs. I buy figures whenever I can, which is not often - I do know a good dealer but he relies on US import! The stuffed dog looks like Menchi from Excel Saga (anyone remember that??)

Danny, do you ever have healthy meals? It seems like you're eating a lot of eggs, which is good for protein but high in cholesterol (you would probably know this already).

Danny, when I was in Japan, I noticed that a lot of kids actually did their studying in a McDonald's. I saw a couple of people leisurely sipping a soda and reading a book. Is that usual for Japan? Is McD the new think place?
(ID #276601) Posted on 2008/08/24 18:49
nope, it's prevalent in singapore as well, thanks to the introduction of free wifi and 24/7 opening hours. it's a magnet for students to study. never been there myself though, i find it the aroma of fries to be counter-productive to study hurhur

I try to buy a few figures a month, a mix of maybe one "statue" and some trading figures or action figures. I totally agree with this, the roadworks over here in the UK take the piss, but thats mainly due to the fact that construction workers over here, especially in London, are so damn lazy. I remember by my house they were doing "roadworks". Took two months and when it was over we realized all they were doing was refurbishing some of the pavement.

Hmm, new figures come for me as figmas are released that i did pre-order, which is pretty much of the next releases except this panda mascot blue something. ~.~ Eggs are okay... i used to have a pizza delivery service which had a "vulcano" pizza in their menu, looks just like yours but the egg was opened, half cooked only tho, was yummy, ordered lots of times. Though i prefer eggs well done in a salad. :) Shoes mhh... shoess.... shoooeeessssss.... i need to go shopping. :D

Usually 1-2 f year is my limit. For Japan 50$ for a figure may be fine, but here, in Russia, 50$ is worth 2 weeks of food. My salary is 300$ (It's ok here, don't laugh), so i can't really help it. I Reallt would like at least 1 a month. Not gonna happen in a visible future, though XD.

I already held back gettin a few now, I need to save $$ for a DSLR!! ;_;

Raw egg you say? Quite interesting to me. I've always tried to stick to all my food, except the times I get sushi, to be cooked in hopes of not getting food poisoning again. I'll never forget the time I was food poisoned because I did not cook my omlet all the way through and had to miss track practice for nearly two weeks. It was very bad to say the least and I got behind in my training.

I rarely buy figures ^^; so i voted "few months", since its mostly that i buy something when i got money for it (and there is a lot of figures i want ^^; ) too bad that almost all PVC figures are way out of my price range ;_; so its mostly figma/trading figures i can buy....Uguu and the TV thingy will be funny to see :3

(ID #276745) Posted on 2008/08/24 22:43
I try to restrict myself to getting not more than 1 or 2 figures per month. Money is not a big problem for me, but imposing reasonable limits looks like a good thing to me ^.^

Lol, even there are good looking food menus between the photos, you eat so much junk food, Danny ... definitly more than i do. O_O But i like the pictures from you, every where Mikuru is positioned, she looks so great next to the menus ^_^ Mh ... Battery change after 3 years ?! How come ? Are you driving so much and short ways, that the battery had already malfunctions ? I had a battery, which have run about 14 years, before i had to change it. About the question, i don't get figures every week, but when i get some, it's a huge package with 5 to 8 figures in it (or more, when there are petit nendoroids in it). That's because i let them put aside and save them, until there are more then 3 to 4 figures saved. But from the amount of pre-ordered figures, i could say i get every week figures ^_^

He,he! Good luck on your filming Danny! I too have major difficulties in getting the right shoe size here in the Philippines! Some of the sales ladies I talk to tease me that I should really go for custom made shoes!

I only get a figure every so many months. Don't really have room or budget for more so I get those I like the most only. (Plus such moderation makes me enjoy the ones I do have, don't want them to be lost in a swarm so to speak.) My shoe size is 7 to 7,1/2 so I have to be lucky to still find the small sizes for shoes... >_< Road construction sites are better flagged these days over here. They heightened the visibility and alerting boards/lights since we had quite a few lethal accidents when trucks or cars would drive full speed into cars standing still due to road construction. Though alas it still does happen...

Seems like you got quite a busy weekend Danny. Looking forward to the videos. Regarding the questions you asked: I like eggs but only fully boiled. I dont like the squishy type of egg white and yolk in the half boiled eggs. Me got small feet, so no problem of shoe sizes. ANd figures come on monthly basis or sometimes every two weeks. That reminds me of the decreasing space to keep them O^O.

We have a joke in this town that there are only two seasons. Winter and road construction, so it goes without saying that road works happen almost through out the year. I usually get a new figure at least every few months, sometimes more a less in between depending on the release date of them, or if an older one comes available somewhere.

I remember my first real figure (as in not cold-cast, not gashapon or shokugan) was a bust-type of Saya and Haji from Blood+. It was like $50 or so and I thought that was sorta outrageous but I loved the series a lot. Now I know that $50 is like base price for that kinda stuff. I know PVC figures were around before like 2005 or 2006 when I acquired her, but I look back at like pre-2004 figures and a lot of them look really hideous by today's standards. They must've implemented crazy new production methods or at the very least better sculptors since then. But the latter probably isn't true, because I used to see garage kits in magazines in like the 90's that were pure awesome.

I've tried to drink raw egg like twice... It was one of the worse feeling and taste ever, but I forced it down anyway. I do enjoy half cooked eggs(soft-boiled) where the yolk still leaks out. There are plenty of figures which I want, but I am able to control myself and choose only the few which I REALLY want. So I get a figure like once every 2-3 months. May get a few more under special circumstances. I've never heard or seen a rice burger before. Looks like it will all fall apart as soon as you bite in to it. I would love to be able to meet up with you Danny when I visit Tokyo at the end of the year.

Oh Danny, you and your black clothes. What's up with the half-boiled eggs on everything you ate? Well, last time I went to Japan, I had a fair amount of raw/half-cooked eggs. I don't really mind the taste or texture, quite frankly, I think they're pretty good. Man, every single "A Week in Tokyo" entry leaves my mouth watering. Everything in Japan just looks so delicious!!! I can't wait til I go back next time. :D

(ID #278593) Posted on 2008/08/26 06:36
Eggs travel a long distance around here, and I have some concerns about the cleanliness of facilities and shops I get them in, so I won't eat them in any other way than fully-cooked. If I were in a place where I could guarantee the quality, I might have a different position. As for roadwork, we have a joke in Canada that we have two seasons, Winter and Roadwork. The temperature extremes lead to the roads heaving, and that means lots and lots of repairs needed. At the moment, my city is experiencing a building boom, so we get more roadwork as more roads and train tracks are needed to cope with the population increase. As for the filming, I'm looking forward to those newsclips!

I buy the majority of my shoes when I go to Japan (I have a small collection, mainly Nikes). I am a U.S. size 10 (28cm) and I find that ABC Mart http://www.abc-mart.com/index.html generally always stock up to my size or a 28.5cm (which I believe is a U.K. size 10 according to this conversion chart: http://www.i18nguy.com/l10n/shoes.html). Sports Depot http://www.sportsdepot.com/footwear.html usually have bigger sizes too. I find both of these places to be considerably cheaper than buying locally and they will often have the shoes I want months before they are available locally. Maybe you could try one of those places Danny? I also find that shoe stores I've visited in Tokyo tend to stock larger sizes (up to US size 11 or 12!) than in more regional places like Kanazawa, where I spend the majority of my time when in Japan. :) Roadworks go on forever and ever and ever. The route I take to work every day is undergoing a major five year upgrade at cost of AUD $1.88 Billion. We are one year in and the traffic is even worse than before. http://gup.com.au/asp/index.asp My commute should take 40-50 minutes each way but regularly takes 1.5 - 2hrs :( I was very sceptical about uncooked eggs to begin with but I love it now. My favourite is using it as a dipping sauce for things like Sukiyaki. Mos Burger is great! I love their spicy burgers. Eneos battery... my mother in law works for Eneos. I have a couple of their little cars in my display cabinet.

I wish we had reliable road work over here~ The main road I took to my Uni was closed off and on for 2 whole months! It was put a pipe in... I wouldn't have minded so much if it was construction on a road with millions of pot holes (like most of the roads around here)~ But it wasn't even something that would benifit most people... The road I had to take to replace it was not only 2X as busy... but a much longer ride... Making my 45min trip about 1hour 15 minutes.... And It was during the time when gas prices were highest of course. I did learn though if got past there before 7AM or After 8PM the road was opened though. So I started going out of my way to wake up early and leave late on certain days. 6 Months later the road is opened... but they just put a bunch of gravel on it and never actually paved itO.o They even put up signs saying "Travel at your own risk"~ because its not very safe feeling...

I wish I have more time to check out your posts... orz But nevertheless hahaha I have to agree with you Danny that the British roadworks take forever. The lads over there like to take their time while having all these "Health and Safety precautions" in their minds. Even Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear proves it and tried to show them that an ordinary road could be done within 24 hours (in a very sloppy way) rather than several months of inefficiency.. Hong Kong has a lot of road maintenance here and there. Luckily people do get their job done in time due to the usual Asian culture. It's worth noting that a lot of the workers are actually from other countries such as Pakistan.

danny are u filming you elections ads for president of the world? DANNY CHOO FOR PRESIDENT. hehehe very nice I'm looking forward to the results. I just hope this time there will be at lest english subtitles for those who do not speak Japanese. I don't own any figures but i really want to. I moved to a new apartment in a new town (only 15 minute away from the old place on highway) and I plan on purchase a few Gundam ones. Any recommendations on what is a good start for a novis?

Out of curiosity, how many eggs do you consume in a day, Danny? I used to eat about 6-8 per week several years ago (I worked out a lot). Now I try to limit it down since I'm getting old. I like half-boiled eggs. It's pretty common to find this in Asia.

I really enjoy your "week in Japan" posts. I'm unable to travel anywhere by my own right now, so it's very fun and informative to know about the culture (and not only anime and manga). I also liked how you place petit nendoroids inside the car, next to the food... I'm taking your example and am gonna put some inside my car ^^

I know what you mean about the shoes. Being a UK size 13 doesn't really help when there are sales on and there are some nice shoes.

I get new gundam every few months. If it goes about figures, well I don't have any but I planning to get one in nearest future.But don't know which one since there is a lot of nice figures ^^.

Well I used to get one every 2 weeks to at most a month for new figurines. It's just that the summer was really bad since the supplier hasn't given our local figurine/gundam shop his goods. And that's bad. It's like 2 months overdue and still hasn't gotten the first order. Sad thing is, his supplier 'moved' and 'misplaced' his order and is in a mess. (Not surprised if the supplier's clients are also pissed off) All due to mishandling and a 'sudden' vacation they decided to take without notifying our local store -.-'' THANKS.... But still around a month or longer now, since he'll be looking for a new one

Hey, where do you buy your figures in Canada? Just curious, I usually get mine at anime cons such as Anime North.

Hey, no ground wires for laptops? Or just in Japan in general?

Roadworks here take days and sometimes even weeks. End of Spring, whole of Summer and Fall is when these constructions are conducted. You know its nearly Summer (or already Summer) when roads are being repaired. Haha! ^_^

Here in Canada, avian flu was a concern. And some restaurants no longer server raw/not fully done eggs.
