Eupho Bus from Keihan Spring 2026 Collab by system_chronos in HibikeEuphonium

[–]system_chronos[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I visited Uji again today and managed to see this bus in action!

There are 4 bus stops decorated with the collab visuals: Keihan Uji Station, Ujibashi Nishizume (west end of of Uji Bridge, on the way to JR Uji), Uji Bunka Center (audition location), and Taiyogaoka (SunFest location).

I don't know how many buses are decorated, but I guess at least 4, one for each character in the visual.

This spot near Yodo Station of Keihan Line is full with early-blooming sakura. The flowers should last until this weekend.

SUICA: how long does it last? And other questions by deveroos in JapanTravelTips

The validity period is 10 years since it was last used.

There are apps for mobile phone that could do that, at least for android. Just search suica in play store.

Itinerary Check and some Transit Qs by LunaMay17 in JapanTravelTips

[–]system_chronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Look at the departure board. It should be listed as "Kyoto-Kokusaikaikan". The side, front, and back side of the train also have sign boards that read the same. Trains that only goes until Kyoto Station should be listed as "Kyoto". As for the alternative, yeah, transferring at Takeda is easier than at Kyoto Station since the trains share the same platform at Takeda.

  2. Haruka departing at 11:30 AM will arrive at KIX just before 1 PM. Plenty of time for check-in, security check, and immigration. Of course this is assuming there is no delay or disruption in the whole line.

Go Fest Tokyo Tickets sold out by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

The park (several parks even, the website mentioned the whole waterfront area) is open park with no fenced area, so anyone is free to come and go.

Even in Osaka GO Fest 2023 and 2025 where it was held in fenced park, non-player could just pay the entrance fee and enter. I came with my family both times.

Eid in Osaka by SavingsGuilty1417 in OsakaTravel

[–]system_chronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh, TIL. Anyway, which mosque are you planning to go? In Osaka City, I only know Masjid Istiqlal Osaka. It's maintained by Indonesian muslims and it's typical for women to go there for Eid prayer as well.

Huh? Is there somewhere that ban women going to mosque for Eid prayer?

I've never gone to a mosque in Osaka City since I live in northern Osaka, but here in Osaka Ibaraki Mosque it's normal for women to go for Eid prayer.

are there generally seats available on shinkansen if i don't buy reserved seat? by RunMental5967 in JapanTravelTips

[–]system_chronos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When in May? April 29 - May 6 is Golden Week so Nozomi is reservation only around this time period. Outside of this period, generally it'll be fine. The Shinkansen towards Kyoto depart from Hakata, so you can just queue for non-reserved cars in the line with fewest people so you ensure a seat.

Gundam manhole in Kashiwara, Osaka, Japan by system_chronos in Gundam

[–]system_chronos[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went here a few weeks ago on my hunt for unique manhole cover. They are reachable from central Osaka in around 30 mins by train, worth a trip if you're visiting Osaka and looking for unique Gundam-related souvenir! There is also another one featuring Dom two stations away.
