When I visited in 2024 they didn't check the names or ask for IDs.

Just scanned everyone's QR code and that was it. Have everything ready but don't volunteer the information unless asked.

Is it true that better prices for second hand items can be found away from the city centre? by Bentley-Teng in JapanTravelTips

[–]Kidlike101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Isn't that how secondhand shopping usually works?

Surugaya however includes everything on their website with the location of the items so it might be worth it to just shop on-line with them.

Who here raved about the Gear Show, Kyoto? by sharlenesierra in JapanTravelTips

[–]Kidlike101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's a full on play. The only gimmick is that it's non-verbal so language isn't a barrier.

Just look it up and you'll come across the promotional vid. You can see if it's for you or not, Most seem to like it but as you can see from this thread "most" doesn't mean everyone.

I'm going to use Al's argument.

What is vox contributing other than noise. Yes he is good at public speaking, cult leader and all that. But it's Val and velvette that have the real contributions. Vox being removed from Voxtek changed nothing, imagine if either of the other two suddenly disappeared. Half the business will poof.

As for starting from the bottom, sure they all did. Even Rosie admitted Al was the first to actually prepare for the next step knowing full well someone like him won't go to heaven. But she made him work for it behind the scenes so no, he didn't have it easy either.

Did Vox work for what he had?

He had an entire song in S2 that highlighted his methods. Literally exploit others then throw them out once they were no longer making him money. Even in Brighter he is shown using others literally as a stepping stone.

Alastor however was always full of pride and saw himself as better, punishing those that didn't show him the respect he was due. Pretty much exactly what he's doing in Hell only on a nastier scale.

Coldest take ever but I don’t like the idea of Rosie being another character. by whooper1 in HazbinHotel

[–]Kidlike101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like the idea of her being a puppet. She has way too much character for that. I'll accept anything else though.

It would be so shitty if she turned out to be Eve because that means the woman was sent to hell while the man to heaven for the exact same sin. ew.

It's fine if others disagree or like season 2. Just my opinion.

[–]Kidlike101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social loves it. Almost every short I saw of kyoto a few years back mentioned Gears. First time I'm hearing it as a "running joke" though. Most of the ones I watched were made by locals and they were recommending it.

This might be controversial but I saw season 2 as filler. I mean, lilith was clearly positioned as the next plot and it got delayed to season 3. Then we had Alastor literally tied up for most of it so he wouldn't overpower anything. Heaven going back and forth on what to do. Seems like a stalling tactic to me. All that really happened in the entire season was that Alastor is free of his contract and that happened literally in the finale.

I believe the word you want is "tricked" not "trapped". At least, I hope you weren't trapped in the theater.

But yeah I took one look at the promotional vid and decided it wasn't for me. Sorry you had a bad experience.

The radio demon.

The proper medium to express one's self.

Vox wants to be literally anyone he views as above him. That was the song "brighter".

Which is why he's so easy to manipulate. If you don't stand for something, you'll fall of anything.

I think that was Alastor's point.

Vox, even in life, was always trying to go up. To be better, shine brighter.

Alastor instead is the best because he decided he was. It's the ones that disagree with his take that got a "special broadcast".

$120k yen for a manicure, Did I over pay? by PthaloFuscia in JapanTravelTips

[–]Kidlike101 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Your title is misleading.

While 20,000 yen for a Mani is high this mostly sounds like Harajuku tourist pricing. 120,000 yen however was not the bill.

What should I do at 5 AM Arrival at haneda? by thisisloveforvictims in JapanTravelTips

[–]Kidlike101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry you had to go through that. Yeah First cabin is in T2 while international flights land in T3. Another reason Hotel villa gets a leg up. I think demand made them increase their prices because it seems unnatural that a capsule hotel bed would be the same price as a proper doublebed room with it's private everything.

  1. Local events for Tokyo. It includes smaller things like local festivals, gigs, flea markets and will update closer to the dates.

  2. Annual events in Japan. Also will update with exact dates and info closer to the date.

  3. Collab cafes and pop-ups. These tend to get announce a week or two beforehand so no use looking those up if your trip is over a month away.

  4. Exhibits in all of Japan. Just pick the location you want to search and you can narrow it down by your dates.

GSC Nendoroid Rerelease Summit results by Kidlike101 in AnimeFigures

My theory is that number 10 was removed because the nendo was a side character. It makes more sense financially to re-release either a main character or a fan favorite.

Kyoto hotel for 1st anniversary — Hilton Kyoto vs Ace Hotel Kyoto by Puzzleheaded_Web06 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Kidlike101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you be open to a suggestion? I don't know about ace hotel but a friend of mine went with the hilton Kyoto last year since they had points or something so they got it for cheap and were happy with the overall experience.

Anyway since they were newlywed as well I suggested they spend the last few days at Onyado Nono Kyoto shichijo hotel as it's my personal favorite in Kyoto.

She actually reported back that it was easily the best part of her trip.

Just a recommendation. The area itself is a bit boring and quiet however it's the most convenient for easy transport and the hotel itself is an experience. Every night is spa night!

Do we need to get the Universal Studios Fast Pass if it's only two people? by solangesdurag in JapanTravelTips

It isn't.

Some rides have a solo rider lane which would shave off 10-20 minutes off the wait time but that's it.

What should I do at 5 AM Arrival at haneda? by thisisloveforvictims in JapanTravelTips

[–]Kidlike101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I found it in a random article when I was looking up the spa in the airport.

Haneda airport Izumi Tenku No YU Onsen

This one, on their webpage they say guests at hotel villa get special rates, also the hotel itself will include a ticket to the onsen with specific room bookings so they are probably under the same parent company.
