haha, I bought the same Asuka figure and was considering the other one you didn't buy when I was in Japan (I didn't buy it either cause these figures take so much precious space in the suitcase)! I went mad as well in Evangelion Store, but I only bought a few things - my fav is NERV card holder that I use all the time!
I just went and I got the Dynaction Eva 1 figure. Which was a real bitch and a half to find because they had him in displays at department stores, but had sold out at that point.
how much you sound inspired and impressed about items connected to this specific show you keep mentioning moments about the show and keep talking about it the way you keep putting clips of it you over-hyping it a lot it better be worth the hype I'm going to go watch it i watched alot of 70's to 90' anime's growing up although never touched Evangelion.
Your editing is on point mate. Love your new look too. Storytelling could use a bit of work. But maybe cos the content is really different from your usual video essays? That's why it doesn't seem to be taking off...😔
@@OniMaruWow, you replied! Haha ok so if I may just offer my 2c worth since you asked. Take it for what it is, nothing but my opinion after all: 1. Thumbnail: I think the thumbnail is not as attention grabbing as it could be? I'm not sure what's the story being told when I look at it. What am I supposed to feel when I look at it? Curious, shocked, excited, sorrow, etc? Ppl dunno, so they might not click. But I've seen your previous thumbnails; I know what u can do so nuff said 😏 2. Storytelling: I think the main issue is I didn't know what the main character (you) wanted. What was the character's goal? What was the obstacle he faced? How did he overcome it? What were the stakes? How was he changed in the end? It kinda became a series of remarkable events (or purchases in this case) with no particular point to them. It lacked a climatic moment. On the other hand, I think it would have made a great Patreon-only video for fans who are familiar with u and just want to see what u were up to in Tokyo. What kept me watching was cos I've followed your channel for awhile and I just watch cos it's YOU, n I wanted to see how YOU blew $1k on Eva lol. But for the unfamiliar viewer, they probably need something more to retain their attention. It might have been more gripping if you say, had to find 10 figures of Asuka in different outfits in 1 hour or you'd have to eat the spiciest ramen in Tokyo or something 😅 3. Title: Tbh, blowing $1k on anime merch in Tokyo is quite easy. But if u really wanted to stick with the original video content, u could go with "I WASTED my entire month's salary on THIS anime in Tokyo" or something. Throw in a pixelated Asuka in the thumbnail with a big "?". Then don't reveal how much you actually spent in total till the end to keep em watching lol.
Thanks for taking the time to give such a thorough response! This was a pretty insightful read! I've been experimenting with a few things for a while now, so it's helpful to get your perspective as someone who's been following the channel for a while. Thanks for sticking around haha!
I don't really get the obsession with Evangelion. Multiple video essays, and even watching part of the original anime, I found it fell flat. Now it could be that I've had 15+ years, and around 600 or so shows worth of anime to establish what I like and dislike, but I didn't find Evangelion enjoyable. The main character doesn't make me want to root for him, and the only character I found myself rooting for ends up getting snuffed out. The animation and art were enjoyable, and the music was excellent. But compared against other classics I just found Evangelion to be lacking. Maybe I'll finish the series at some point, but at the moment it's pretty low on the list.
eva is the type of anime you have to be at a certain point in your life to enjoy, i watched it as a depressed teen, and as the years passed. when shinji finally got to get his happy ending in the rebuilds i felt complete. Anno's quote applies "Evangelion is like a puzzle, you know. Any person can see it and give his/her own answer" Evangelion gave me the means to satiate my existential dread
I have to go to Japan in a couple of months for work and I was thinking of taking a week for myself as a mini vacation. I speak zero Japanese and was wondering if I'm going to have any difficulties going to restaurants or going shopping not knowing any Japanese.
So your wallet experienced the third impact. Lol
NAHHHHH
Lol
STOP

I know, I know I've let you down
I've been a fool to myself
I thought that I could live for no one else
But now, through all the hurt and pain
It's time for me to respect
The ones you love mean more than anything
So, with sadness in my heart
Feel the best thing I could do
Is end it all and leave forever
What's done is done, it feels so bad
What once was happy now is sad
I'll never love again
My world is ending
I wish that I could turn back time
'Cause now the guilt is all mine
Can't live without the trust from those you love
I know we can't forget the past
You can't forget love and pride
Because of that, it's killing me inside
It all returns to nothing
It all comes tumbling down
Tumbling down, tumbling down
It all returns to nothing
I just keep letting me down
Letting me down, letting me down
In my heart of hearts
I know that I could never love again
I've lost everything, everything
Everything that matters to me matters in this world
I wish that I could turn back time
'Cause now the guilt is all mine
Can't live without the trust from those you love
I know we can't forget the past
You can't forget love and pride
Because of that, it's killing me inside
It all returns to nothing
It just keeps tumbling down
Tumbling down, tumbling down
It all returns to nothing
I just keep letting me down
Letting me down, letting me down
It all returns to nothing
It just keeps tumbling down
Tumbling down, tumbling down
It all returns to nothing
I just keep letting me down
Letting me down, letting me down
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Letting me down
Letting me down
Letting me down
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Letting me down
Letting me down
Letting me down
*burp* 🤣😂
Lol
you already know im drinking fanta if i ever get the entry plug bottle
Lucozade bro.
The bottle thing is their if you want to put pieces of fruits in your water. You can drink from the bottle and don't get fruit pieces in your mouth.
I'm surprised it doesn't come with a wire mesh basket to brew tea.
As well as ice
Or if you don't want ice to enter your mouth!
11:04 Ma-jay? MA-JAY?! It's MA-GI, you buffoon!(no harm tho)
The whole video shows how stupid and ignorant that guy is.
And 16:29 is lilith not adam 😭
Don't mess with Evangelion fans, we don't watch our own show😎
…that’s how you pronounce magi… like what they’re named after……
OniMaru: I Went To Tokyo and Spent $1000 on Eva Merch
Me: Ooh, what a lucky man he was (x2)
haha, I bought the same Asuka figure and was considering the other one you didn't buy when I was in Japan (I didn't buy it either cause these figures take so much precious space in the suitcase)! I went mad as well in Evangelion Store, but I only bought a few things - my fav is NERV card holder that I use all the time!
Oh boy. Can't wait to do this later this year.
I really enjoyed the vibe in this video. I miss youtube like this. Alsoo now I feel jealous with all that Eva merch 😅😅😅
16:30 I know at least four very devout Christians who love EVA. All good bro lol
I’m a Christian and I love Eva
I just went and I got the Dynaction Eva 1 figure. Which was a real bitch and a half to find because they had him in displays at department stores, but had sold out at that point.
Reasonable investment 📈
on the back is lillith 16:29
Asuka:"What are you stupid,of course it's Lilith"(no harm)
The second piece is for ice or other solid objects so they don’t attack your face while you drink
Evangelion is the reason I want to visit Japan. I’d be in eva heaven. I’m not even a merch person, but eva…
My man has never heard of a filter in a water bottle
Man I gotta get that shirt with the white EVA mouth on it
Dude. I know I'm going to be the same way when I go to Japan next year!
My answer to the title: who wouldn't
I like the thumbnail Asuka figure. 😏🥰
this is the only reason for me to save and get a job, go to tokyo and buy Eva stuff

This would be me if I ever went to Japan 😭 Except I don’t have money
oh my gosh, how could you handle spending that much??? im jealous haha
Yo bruv. Ur still alive
is the store always there or is it just temporary? because im going to tokyo in july and i would love to go there
Inspiring 👍
