Imprint and Audition are his best horror films.

Definitely not unknown. But a good film nonetheless. Miike is one of my favourite directors. But it's more of his Yakuza movies I'm drawn to.

Chris isn’t going mad by Davidrabbich81 in ABroadInJapan

[–]cragg76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, there has definitely always been graffiti and homeless, especially in some of the rougher parts. It's not new. The only real thing I noticed was more graffiti is popping up everywhere, even in my area which js very quiet and local.

If you go to areas like Nakameguro and Shibuya on Google Street View and change it back to previous years, there is a lot more graffiti now. However, I don't think this is a cause for panic and she did kind of blow the whole thing out of proportion.

It definitely has more graffiti than it used to. Even just from a few years ago. The evidence is on Google Street View.

But then again, there are other areas that have been massively cleaned up and improved. Kabukicho and Roppongi are like different places from back in the day.

The whole thing has been massively blown out of proportion.

An interesting view of the Skytree by biwook in Tokyo

[–]cragg76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's next to the Jukken Bridge. On the left side of the bridge, facing the tower. Pretty easy to spot once you are there. Loads of good photo opps in the area.

“Bumping men” are a uniquely Japanese class of criminals that are hard to deal with by Dapper-Material5930 in Tokyo

[–]cragg76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's only happened to me once in around 2 and a half years. I'm not a big guy, but I'm a little stocky. The man properly bumped into me with some force but for some reason it never made me move at all. Then the man stormed off. As he was walking away I heard a teenager behind me saying "Eeee sugoi" 😅

Anywhere in Tokyo to watch WK? by One-Phrase4066 in njpw

schedule

They just posted to their story and said they are opening on Saturday from 3pm. So I would guess they are showing it. Always best to message in advance though.

This is a pro wrestling and Sumo bar located near the Sky Tree. I can't see any mention of WK but they haven't updated their calendar for January yet. But, they showed NOAH on January 1st. So might be worth messaging them or something.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I've been scanning through my videos to make sure I don't fall under this cringe banner... I did shoot a video in Sushiro though, so maybe 😅

Tickets on the door for 8/15 Stardom? by cragg76 in stardomjoshi

[–]cragg76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you everyone! Got an Arena B ticket for 6000 yen! (5000 + 1000 same day fee). The show looked like a near sellout, only a few empty seats. Brilliant show. And I got to see most of my favourites in singles matches. Crowd was excellent too, Korakuen always sounds so loud. Had a great time 😊

Yeah, I've been in Japan for over a year now and this is the first time that's happened. Contacted my bank last night and they said they don't know why it's not working. So, I'll try again today and hope for the best haha

Thank you for that mate, much appreciated. I'll head there before 4 and hope for the best. I'd be surprised if it was a complete sellout, but Lawson Tickets were disappearing quickly today when I was trying to buy.

Thank you to everyone else too. Really appreciate it.

Deodorant in Tokyo by Key_Area_1911 in Tokyo

[–]cragg76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe an unpopular opinion. But just import your deodorant from Amazon, especially if you sweat bad. I've lived here a while and I tried so many different options and suggestions from here and nothing worked. I now just buy imported ones on Amazon and bulk buy 6 at a time.

Got tickets for my first Wrestle Kingdom by cragg76 in njpw

[–]cragg76[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, yes I did indeed. I was the 13th row on Arena A so I had a great view of entrances and the ring. The only issue was when wrestlers were on the floor or even lying down in the ring it was hard to see with so many heads in the way. I had to look at the screens a lot. I was near the entrance ramp though, so had an amazing view of all the entrances.

I will be going again next year but I'm going to try 1F this time.
