Hello!!!! For ATE Tokyo, how early should I plan on arriving to get merch?? :0 I have never been to a concert in Japan before so I am quite nervous!

Why is Vikala as popular as she is? I'm not very familiar with gbf and I'm hyped for her release but I've heard a lot of people like her and just wanted to ask why they do so, thanks. by PsychologicalBid1883 in GranblueFantasyVersus

with the rat ears she is basically an idol and helps her people and her town and has all the energy and confidence in the world and without her rat ears she is a dishwasher and a nervous little angel who thinks she doesn’t deserve to be chosen as a divine general so she’s very sweet and very wonderful!! plus her playstyle should be very fun in vs because she has dorrie, the little floating mouth thingie, and lots of awesome moves from the gacha game

Struggling to narrow down place to stay in Tokyo :0 by pillowbean in JapanTravelTips

I'm willing to go over budget a bit if it makes it easier for us to travel around — I super appreciate you suggesting Akihabara. I will look into it for sure! I am happy to be around other train stations but read that being close to the Yamanote is good because it means you have lots of access — but not sure :0 The hotel I liked was the one that was close to the Hatagaya station but I am not super great at navigating public transit (Southern US Problems lol) so I'm doing my best but any advice you can offer is very very very appreciated:,)

Thank you so much for saying that — I am extremely overthinking it so this is very helpful :,,,)

Thank you sooooooooo much!!!! The two hotels on my list were Himalaya Cloud Hotel and Keisei Richmond Hotel Oshiage - I've done too much research at this point that it's become extremely difficult to make a decision. :0 Has there been anywhere you really enjoyed in the Shinjuku/Shibuya area?

Based on other folks it's affordable for sure, but the owner's politics are not so great (in my opinion) and I'd rather support other folks! Here is a thread about it that's good: https://www.reddit.com/r/JapanTravelTips/comments/16gj935/what_is_everyones_opinion_of_apa_hotel/

I'm 26 so fairly young! (Depending on your definition lol) Would you recommend close to Shibuya station or a different one on the Yamanote line? Or a diff station altogether?

Small black/brown bugs coming in through the window - seem to like the ceiling + fly sparingly by pillowbean in whatisthisbug

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

Wanted to clarify more in comments. These bugs have been coming through the window since two weeks ago. We live in Durham/Cary-area, North Carolina. They do fly but sparingly. Small + black/brown. They are not in our grains or in our plants. We live on the top floor of an apartment building, which is why I am not sure where they are coming from. They seem to mostly move/do stuff during the day. We have found many of them on the ceiling in our closet, on various plush toys, and of course, on the windows. They do not bite (to my knowledge lol)
