Yesterday, ten days after the exact order, are the books I ordered arrived with bookdepository
All perfect * __ *! I recommend this site: the books cost less than on IBS and there are no shipping costs.
The small flaw is that, unlike in Italian site, not using a courier, you can not see where the parcel and this is, especially if you use the post office in our country, can be a problem.
Thanking the patron saint of the books, my package has not lost in the labyrinthine maze of quibbles post and now I am enjoying my books, including werewolves, mysteries, and of course, boy's love XD But now
pass the second part of the story of my trip to Japan, or the
August 5 to 6
we woke up at 3:30 ç___ç The time is felt and no discounts! We are still lying in the hopes that Morpheus decides to go even at these latitudes, but nothing. So to kill time talking about, in consultation with the program guide for deciding the following days and so on.
Eventually we leave at 08:00, towards Akihabara district, electronic and otaku.
arrive too early and there's nobody around, but out of the subway station, what I find to greet me? This megaposter Kuroshitsuji announcing the imminent release of the DVD:
How not to love a country like this?
XD But it was not the only one. Currently, the neighborhood was plastered with posters for the release of an anime-themed girl band that I've never seen exactly that:
Yes, I would have preferred to make the photo with Sebastian, but I could not climb in climbing Wandering on a building XD
note that it is only open to us what looks like an electronics store. Okay, we think, take a ride waiting for the other open.
And here we see that we were wrong: yes it was really a shop, but with 8 floors and not just electronics, there were watches, souvenirs, etc..
out of there, all the other stores were open. So we start to wander and our group comes in what looked like a cosplay shop, as there were in costumes of various anime. How nice, how nice, we go to a ride. Well, we were wrong again. Not only because, as the previous store, this one had 8 floors, but because in fact they were so 8-floor, but not how to turn sex shop XD entirely too? XD What we found is that the newest trend in the sexy gadget is tiranarici
XD Unfortunately, access was restricted to women on the top floor as floor dedicated to gay, but I could see interesting things like : the inflatable doll, fake butts and mechanical hand for lovers onanism who do not want to come get tendonitis.
outputs from there go to the mecca dell'otaku: Animate the building of seven floors dedicated to manga, anime, gadgets, drama cd, doujinshi, CDs and so on and so forth. A whole section was devoted to yaoi, including manga, novels and CDs *__*.
The Japanese people at the moment is obsessed with Gintama (we also sell strawberry milk in the series), D Gray Man, Evangelion, a little 'Kuroshitsuji Hetalia and other series and do not know.
Delle Clamp practically nothing. Only manga Tsubasa and XXX Holic (the latter also sell Birthstones: in fact, once you've removed the box clampiana invoice, you have left just one of those stones that Vendean in any market).
I tried the puppets Clamp 3D but I only found those bad series, type nonmiricordoilnome police school, suki suki Dakara, the thief with a thousand faces, etc.. But one thing is
clear: in Italy are thieves. Those Stuffed animals, not even an inch tall human, which here they charge 15 € , there are around 600 yen (about € 4.50) if they are expensive.
Another example? These gadgets Kuroshitsuji, pay as high as 9 € nail here, there costs 350 yen (3.60 Euros).
The complete set of these gadgets Lady Oscar I found them in a basket on the floor, between the strategic balance in stuff that nobody wants to 1000 yen (about 7.50 €).
Yaoi? Only manga, novels and CDs and that's it. Now, I understand that for those who know Japanese, a shelf 15 feet long this can only be heaven, but for the foreign media fangirl who knows the most English I can assure you it is quite frustrating.
Of all the gadgets that were advertised here, I found a couple and did not interest me: the pink box, cell stap with the face of the panda and the shapes of pink panda san and Suzuki. Sucks ç___ç
Other gadgets were shitajiki for quadernini yaoi series I did not know.
The only thing I saw and I wanted to take home were huge posters advertising the new series of Yamato Nase and Viewfinder.
In the afternoon we went to Harajuku,
fashion street, where an alternate store lolita type clothing and a gothic type.
The great thing about Japan is that you can dress as you like and nobody looks at you wrong. Example:
guy who quietly made foxtail knot with her friends: O
this dress a cat-demon:
The area is very picturesque, but anyone who knows me knows that I do not shop the fashon I could care less. Instead of my two traveling companions, who have spent the afternoon in one store and I sat outside waiting for us ...
The problem was that the sun was setting and we were not even in the middle of the street. So, after deciding to return the next day, take the subway and go back to the hotel, dead tired. This time for dinner I got a bowl of rice with a plate of vegetables and pieces of liver (actually little). This was good, but the problem is that it was not enough nutrient. Little damage, I do not feel hungry when I'm around, but the problem is that my body does not function without energy = do not walk as fast as my traveling companions. But for the moment was not a problem: Tokyo is flat and at the time I had spent half of my time stopping to wait for the shopping-holic.
back to the hotel and collapsed on futon, hoping that the fatigue accumulated during the day he could knock your time zone. Were wrong, at least in part: I woke up at 5:00 and we Silvia, while Sabina continues to sleep the sleep of the righteous. We are hoping to go back to sleep lying down ... to no avail. Finally at 06:30
not take it anymore, I get dressed and decided to go for a ride in one of those supermarkets are open 24 hours on 24 to find something to eat breakfast.
I think that shooting a supermarket give you an idea of the tastes of the country where you are traveling and I must say that I was not disappointed: the thing that surprised me most was the milk: it was difficult to find a normal pack half-liter, normally found only one aromatic. And if some flavors are standard, like coffee and chocolate, others less so, like strawberry, banana or peach. Another strange thing is that the flavored cost less than normal. Another funny thing was to find a chocolate croissant from the melon pan or sandwich with azuki beans, lettuce and tomato sandwiches with by the onigiri. Small note: if you buy a drink, the milk, the cashier give you a straw. If you buy ice cream, they give you a spoon. It's not that you have to ask him, I slipped into the bag, of course, free.
Back Room to 07:00 and with Silvia we get close to the table for breakfast, deciding in the meantime to look a bit 'of TV. We knew that Japanese television is quite different from ours, but not as we suspected ...
Light on channel 1: normal pattern YouTube channel with news, weather, policy programs, etc ... Moving on to channel 2 and do not believe our eyes: a porn O___O and at 7 am O_____O But what was even stranger was that the channel was 3 for children with programs such as the tree Melevisione and blue. But why? Why such channel, which we later discovered porn transmits 24 hours 24 without commercial breaks, including that of the news and one for children? Boh! At the end we opt for a channel that broadcasts local gossip about star (but that too, at 7 am? But why?). After a while
'wakes also Sat, eats, we wash and return to Harajuku. I was hoping to spend only the morning, but I was wrong. We were there all day, they always go shopping, and I always sat on the steps outside to wait = __ =
There was a brief return to the hotel around lunch time to put down the bags. At that juncture, the obasan reappeared to give us a cake with mango west. In practice it was a roll of sponge cake filled with cream with 3 pieces of mango. No big deal, but a cake like that there costs about 30 €.
the evening we packed up, the day after we left for Hakone.
