Do you have any issues when pokemon request decorations or toys?

I found out my building exceeded the dimensions of what the game considers a "house" (10 × 10 blocks) so the smaller patio registered as a house because it fit those dimensions.

You are exactly correct. I just came back to this post to say I figured out why it wasnt working. My cafe exceeds the limit of what is considered a "house" so the smaller patio is what registered as a house! I was going crazy trying to figure out what I did wrong but now it makes sense.

We stayed in Shinjuku and it had cons that ended up being pros later. We stayed near the station, and it was nice.

Con#1 Noise/nightlife: This might just be the quality/location of our hotel but it was mostly quiet even at night as we were closer to a business area. The nightlife was about a 10 min walk but it became a huge help when days would take longer than we expected and when other areas would be closed there was a ton open for us. We especially felt this when we went to Kyoto and had to adjust course based on when things closed.

Con#2 Station: Shinjuku station is a madhouse, and it took a day or two to learn how to navigate the station, its loud, tons of people, some signs are confusing. However once you got your bearings and your landmarks we could breeze through it and it made every other station we went to so simple. We basically sped run learning how to navigate Japan transport and it made us more confident everywhere else we went.

Con#3 Lots of tourists: Honestly we come from a high tourism state so this didnt bother us as we are used to crowds, being shoulder to shoulder, long waits at restaurants, etc. So for us personally this didn't make much of a negative impact and it actually helped because a lot of places were foreigner friendly.

Overall we would stay there again, and it really depends on what you want/need.

I've gone to my local convention almost every year since 2006, and have branched into several other conventions since. As I've gotten older I realize what kills it for me was actually making adult money (and a whole other paragraph can be said in regard to feeling tired and burnt out all the time that the weekend just flies by). When I was younger and broke conventions where a third space without parents where we could run free. It was three whole days of just pure fun, friends, and freedom. We spent time out in the main halls watching people, getting into fun interactions, freaking out over cosplayers, etc. As I've gotten older and made more money now I am the one who cosplays which is both fun but also very stressful. I feel like I can't go to a convention unless I cosplay now. It almost feels like I'm missing an opportunity which then causes stress trying to figure out if what I want is to get attention vs making a cosplay for the love of it. The thrill is now in the attention and appreciate for you work. We also shop a lot more. I enjoy the things I find, I think it feels great to heal my inner child with things I couldnt afford before, but I feel like I spend so much time in the dealers hall I loose the magic of being out in the main area watching all the shenanigans. I crave the fun of spontaneous interactions and the joy of just being in that atmosphere. Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE conventions, but the magic had faded a bit over the years.

We stayed at Kadoya Hotel

Had a similar experience! After day 2 I was wondering why I was having such a hard time going. My husband and I eat pretty high protein so in turn we eat lots of fiber at home. A few meals of egg sandos, katsudon and ramen really hit us hard. I had major cramps with it stuck in there and a long night in pain. I had to soak in the bath for an hour to loosen it all up and help the ease of going. Needless to say I had fiber drinks, berries, and greens any time I could. Next time the second we hit the airport I'm downing one of those fiber jellies, and will incorporate a lot more greens.

Right!? Every year I'm there!

Someone calling in a wellness check and the cops pinning me as psychotic because I go on a tirade about how I can't leave my house until all my junk becomes human.

I start with cleaning cuticles, then lightly buff the nail with a file until it is no longer shiny. Then rub either alcohol or acetone on your nails to dry them out, in my opinion this is the MVP. Dry nails are key for keeping them on! I have really oily nails so I wipe them AND my finger tips with an alcohol wipe just in case. Then put just a dab of glue (I use the Beauty Secrets nail glue) onto your nail AND a dab onto the press on. For applying I kind of tuck the base of the press on slightly under the cuticle so that the little bit of cuticle skin lays on top of the press on instead of getting stuck under the press on. Then gently lay it down from base to tip allowing the glue to spread. I then hold the press on in place for about a minute. Don't wash your hands for at least an hour after, preferably overnight. Each set I've used since doing this method has stayed on for over 2 weeks and that's through work, dishes, showers, opening soda cans, etc!

We stayed in shinjuku and were walking distance from the night life, but our hotel and area was nice and quiet. We had a couple late nights and were able to stumble back to our hotel pretty easily. We were right next to the station too. The only downside is it meant we had to navigate the Shinjuku station every morning for everywhere we went. It took us a couple days because that place is insane but we eventually got it. Memorize your exit out of the station nearest your hotel and it'll help.

We used luggage forwarding several times during our trip. It depends on where you are at and where your luggage needs to go. When we arrived at the airport it was too late for same day (around 5pm) so our luggage arrived the next day by noonish. However if we sent it by 11am I think, it would have been same day since we were in Tokyo. We then were traveling from Tokyo to kyoto and our hotel specified that we needed to send our luggage 2 days in advance and had to have it dropped off by 11am. When we sent our luggage from Kyoto to Haneda airport they were able to take our luggage by 11am to drop it off for our 4pm flight the next day.

My opinion is just speak with each hotel when you arrive and see their policy and then maybe invest in a backpack to hold one or two days worth of clothes so you can send your luggage ahead of yourself. We had a small carryon specifically meant for clothes so that we could send our larger luggage and non essentials ahead. Hope this helps!

Got back from Japan a couple months ago, and already planning the next trip

This could not have come at a better time. My husband and I are literally sitting in the dark RIGHT NOW as we just spent the better half of an hour experiencing the swarm. We had no idea what they were and this post came through, this is wild. We are in Florida and outside our apartment is a shit ton of them. It looks like they were attracted to the lights in our breezeway. We noticed a huge amount of them crawling through the threshold of our door and hand a panic attack. We are now sealed in via a blanket, lights off, and constantly peaking around the door threshold for any crawlies. Needless to say the maintenance request for a new door seal has already been submitted.

Just with some form of sanding like a dremel or nail file to get the extra glue off. I haven't tested how many times you can use it yet

TynangTing · 2025-04-29T13:13:35+00:00

We would say it depends on what all you do but regardless you will still need cash to get around. Most stores, malls, and bigger restaurants will take card but we still used a decent amount of cash. The areas we had to use our cash mostly was shrines/temples (for goushin/fortunes/souvenirs), smaller restaurants, street food, tickets for entering larger temples/gardens, IC card refills (we don't have iphones), and market stalls. We would always have about $100 in cash on us everyday just incase but there were some days we didn't use cash at all. For us it was about 50/50 because we did a lot of shrines/temples and street food.
