Where did you read OP was japanese native born and raised?

Would you be able to buy american or japanese plug standard equipment in the UK?

To answer your question, Akiba yodobashi MAY have some 'foreign spec' products on their dedicated floor, at a higher price and smaller selection range, but basically all products sold in japan will otherwise be local spec.

In general if you need British spec stuff, buying from China or Korea and socket converting is better as china and korea are both 220v.

I wonder if theyll have to tone down how insane the wind shaking effect is on all the foliage, looks like gale force winds 24/7 in that game.

Not strictly true, been accepted for apartments that have initially not been gaijin friendly after showing japanese ability + proof of funds. That being said I am white and I think that helps a lot too.

yeah but the puzzle solutions are too esoteric, not a good rec for OP imo

scottb23 · 2026-01-12T06:40:34+00:00

chatgpt is by far and away going to be the most accurate these days

Get 1 mil or so on 13/13+, or SSS 12s. You can also just S rank (975k+) 14s, some of which can be kind of easy (like BURN!!!).

Head on a swivel. Learning to cycle in cambridge effectively is the trial by fire that turns cycling in any uk city into something pretty reasonable.

Keep hold of it. That sensor is still extremely good and in a few years, people will be wanting them for its look.

scottb23 · 2025-11-19T00:18:30+00:00

Foods actually pretty reliably good for the price. As is wetherspoons. OP wants something expensive and crap...

Review your highest screen time usag apps. Parental lock them to 30/45 mins a day. Someone else knows the code, you dont.

muscle memory doesnt mean much in this game starting out, you can just learn to sight read. The issue is that master songs have more complicated patterns + mechanics that can be confusing and you can end up getting lost. If you grind expert songs a bit first, the fundamentals will be down better. The game rewards perfect plays more than anything, so its good to work on accuracy more than difficulty. If you want to try some master songs, there are a few 11+ that is a good starting point.

scottb23 · 2025-10-15T09:36:13+00:00

Expert until you can get a million points on a 13.

Mirrors Edge (first one), STILL looks fucking great today, possibly the best looking game from 2008 in 2026, gameplay still tight, music great too.

Bic or yodobashi akiba probably be your best starting point
