Well, I'm off now. Going to Hong Kong and Japan. First stop is Hong Kong. Be going to Japan on August 2nd. Will try to post everyday of my trip on my blog and on Figure FM.
If anyone wants a meet up, tell me in advance.
If anyone got any tips on where to go in HK, please tell me, would love to hear some great places to go!!!
For people who wants to meet up in Japan. I'm pretty much free most of the time. Be attending Comiket 78 as well. If anyone wants to meet up, contact me!!!
I don't have much time left so I'm going to the airport now!!!
ur taking azusa with u, shame u cant take me too. is this ur 1st time to HK? love the food in HK at temple street.
oh how fun! ^_^ I emailed ya with my contact info for comiket and stuff just a moment ago, It'll be cool to meet ya!
Cool!!!
I got your email and I hope to see you there!!!
Also would be cool to meet up before Comiket!!!
I think there is an anime con going on in HK from end of July till early August, think that is worth a shot. Well for anime goods and games you should definitely check out Mong Kok. The rest of the places I can think of are tourist spots that you can find on any tourist maps, like The Peak, Lan Kwai Fong, and Ocean Park. Where in HK are you going to be staying at?
Read your blog, and if you're looking for a cellphone, and have a Japan contact, consider buying a phone on prepaid from Softbank.
I'm lucky enough to have a Japanese contact, and they helped me get a Softbank phone. Its prepaid and I get to keep it. For 300 yen out of the 3000yen I loaded it with, I get unlimited texting and mail (works like an email, but exclusive to your phone). Incredibly useful. No internet and wifi and those fancy features though.
As for any meetups, no can do for me I'm guessing. Leaving Japan on the 4th. Hope your trip goes well!
Also be sure to check out Shibuya for fashion too! 109-2 has quite a bit of Men's fashion. Some are at steep prices mind you. Harajuku is obviously another great place.
I'll be in Japan on the 2nd of August, if you want to meet up before you leave, then contact me...
Naw don't think I'll have the time for it. Some last minute things to take care of :3
Hope you enjoy your stay!
While in Hong Kong, you might want to consider Lantau Island. There is a giant Buddah statue there. I wished I could have gone there when I was in Hong Kong a couple years ago, but didn't have time.
You should go to Sino Centre(信和中心) in Mong Kok,there's a lot of anime shops at the bottom floor,here's the address: 582-592 Nathan Road in Mong Kok
I go there every time when I go to HK
Sino centre is full of video games now a day, used to be full of porn and pirate DVDs = ) about 5-4 years ago. i prefer the In Point alone Nathan Road closer to Yau Ma tei station
Well shops upstairs are full of vedio games,but if you go downstairs you will find CDs,eroge,manga,dakimakura cases and they are all from Japan,not fake ones~Most of my anime goods are from there,if you read my only post on figure.fm,you might be quite surprised that I bought them all from Sino~they don't only sell vedio games and porn there,it's 188 centre in Wanchai that sells them
Have a safe trip ! see ya at Comiket !
See you there...will contact you when I arrive in Tokyo...
