Tokyo Midtown
Just like Roppongi Hills, Tokyo Midtown is another "city within a city" which opened earlier this year.
The small city contains office space, restaurants, food stalls and a ton O brand names.
The architecture is modern and fresh. Everybody seems to be well dressed but stink of perfume.
The first floor of the city contains lots of brand name foods.
Cant quite remember but I think the first 4 floors are full of shops and restaurants.
More brand name foods.
A posh Seven Eleven for the office workers upstairs.
The food court is full of luxurious foods.
I can see how an Otaku would get bored here pretty fast what with no figures, Gundams or anime.
If you have time to kill, Midtown is probably a nice place to have a cuppa starbucks and read a good book while sitting on many of the benches dotted around the complex.
The place is full of brand named stuff. I only remember seeing Joseph. I'm not a brand name person myself but a lot of Japanese seem to be brand name slaves.
The typical interior of a Zakka shop. Zakka (雑貨(ざっか)) refers to the odds n ends that are needed (and sometimes not needed) around the house - cutllery, ornaments, furniture etc.
When one person lines up - other people want to join the line. Its in peoples DNA over here.
Tired Salary woman?
The back of the complex.
Was surprised to see Muji when I visited the UK (or was it uniqlo?)
There is a nice open garden at the back of the complex. Lovely for an afternoon cuppa tea.
The main tower full of offices and hotel space.
Tokyo Midtown is a 15 min walk or a 5 min drive from Roppongi Hills.
Watched Transformers at Hills before spending the afternoon at Midtown.
We absolutely loved Transformers. I want more! If you want more too then get yourself along to the Blur Studio site - some footage that you may not have seen before. Was thinking about getting the game but saw many crap reviews.
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.
If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

A city within a city?
A place otaku would get bored without anime or gundam? But its Tokyo! Land of otaku anime and gundam. But then again, not everyone is otaku. The place looks pretty nice, all oriental and pretty. Name brands only come to my mind when purchasing expensive stuff. When it comes to cheap things, go direct stores!

I often look for specific brands when shopping for an item, don't think I'm a slave to brand names. ^^; Maybe I have some strong female genes because I do enjoy going shopping.
Could have been both Danny, Muji and UniQlo both have shops in UK and in U.S. Good thing their shops are only in New York... ^^;
Glad to hear you enjoyed Transformers.

I would probably go wild on all the food (I want this!, Ohh! I want that!), but would easily get bored with all those brand stores. And WTF! A garden at the back of a mall? I've never seen that before LOL.

I prefer the scruffier neighbourhoods, although the glitzy new complexes gleam of the promised silver future.
Separately, I noted that there is a lack of free wi-fi hotspots when I was in Tokyo.

I visited Midtown with a friend when it first opened ( what were we thinking ? ) and almost died of suffocation. Half of Tokyo's population must have been at Midtown that day.

This looks like somewhere I should visit when I go to Japan.
I'm planning on going to Japan for a 1 week visit with a few friends, and will be staying in the Tokyo region. Would like to know if you can give me any suggestions in terms of where will be the must visit places, as a fan of Gundam, anime, figure and electronics, also as a tourist.
Thanks for your help and time. :)

Dear sweet Jesus that place looks really nice. However, it looks like a really expensive place to shop and the whole brand name system dosn't sit well with me. It's just a way to get extra cash out of people in the end -_-

Tokyo midtown was only open a few weeks when I went there in March. It was under construction the last 2 times i went! Its really nicely furnished (love the bamboo inside) and is all brown, beige and modern, but i felt like a right scruffy bugger. Its super posh in there, and as you said, no gundams, figures or games!
I did want to pop into the massive new konami HQ and demand a job though!
BTW - love their super high tech HD touch panel map displays, and the information ladies in those super smart blue uniforms.

The mall looks really nice and high class heh. However, like you said, I don't its type of mall i would be enjoy going to. From the sound of brand name shops, it seems like its an expensive place to shop at. Might take a look around if i ever get the chance to go to japan again. In the end though, all i care is anime and videogames. xD

Lol, I was just there (and Roppongi Hills) yesterday!! Off just by a day orz
I just love the architecture of Midtown, one of the most aesthetically pleasing imo. There was one of those no-pets sign, but said no photography. Was disappointed but went inside and asked one of the ladies in the front and they said "dozo" and so I did. I felt out of place there though, too bourgeoisie for me. Btw, did you see the big Konami building Danny?
p.s., will call in the morning. Got some nice NTT evangelion phone cards at Nakano that have some credits left^^
Lol, I was just there (and Roppongi Hills) yesterday!! Off just by a day orz
I just love the architecture of Midtown, one of the most aesthetically pleasing imo. There was one of those no-pets sign, but said no photography. Was disappointed but went inside and asked one of the ladies in the front and they said "dozo" and so I did. I felt out of place there though, too bourgeoisie for me. Btw, did you see the big Konami building Danny?
p.s., will call in the morning. Got some nice NTT evangelion phone cards at Nakano that have some credits left^^

I hope to go there in a few years. Looks awesome. As for the brand names question, I'm definitely no slave to them. 95% of what I buy for my house, anime, etc comes from my distributors for my companies which sometimes *gasp* don't have brand names for everything. It don't bug me though, these brands pay me and they are better quality. Still... I wouldn't mind going on a shopping run in this mini city.

That's a cool looking Seven Eleven! Wish ours were that great looking.
As for brand names, I am a slave to them thanks to a girl I used to date. For Example: I won't wear a polo shirt unless it has Polo, Lacoste, or an American Eagle symbol on it(well sometimes NBC but only for work).

Wow, that was impressive.
For a tourist this is a great place to sightsee. I'll be sure to check it out when I'm there. However, seeing that everything is spammed with brands, I don't think that I can afford a long stay^^ I'd rather go to Akihabara and spend my money overthere.

I'm never terribly bothered by brand names, unless it's Apple - then it's a different story!

Like CrazyAnimeTuga said, it looks like a great place to have a date.
It seems so clean, so bright, so attractive... a real tourist trap. ;)
I tend to check prices and all for what I buy so you can count me out for the definition of "traveler who has lots-o'-money-to-spend-at-everything-he-sees".
I tend to choose items in terms of utility and durability. As long as doesn't look ugly or gives the impression of great fragility, it is okay to me.
If I had the chance to go there, I think I'd go window-shopping and go for the bargain bin... No wait, I'd go for the cut prices for videogames and anime-related stuff in Akihabara and so on. ;)

A nice sophisticated looking build. I'd like to go check it out one day...even though I don't exactly know what that build really is (other than a mall I'm assuming).

Brand names items are luxury goods because they do not promote the material good but instead the desire for possession of that good. Hence its marketable desire - a novel idea brought about by subliminal advertising in the 60s / USA. If you market a product enough, the desire to own it overshadows the practical use of said product!
Much like certain figure companies ... hmm ... HMM

Brand names...fie!
Fie, I say!

When I was there it felt like the new "Roppongi hills" - especially with all the high-end shopping. Don't get me wrong. Locating a Puma store that has the limited designer labels was a fairly cool discovery all in itself.
Did you also get a familiar vibe Danny?
