I think it helps when she is speaking english and not using subtles so you can really feel the atmosphere and energy rather then being muted with some back ground music playing with subtles. To me at least, I appreciate that aspect. She also isnt shy to hide her face and really shows you around the block, feels authentic.
Of all the content creators in Japan, you are by far the best, you really show a great variety of things for all tastes and not like the majority that doesn't come out of Dragon Ball.
I thought Akihabara was the only place to go for anime stuff. Without deep research, no one will even know these places exists!! Thanks for the content!!
Love the pacing of your videos! You don't obsess over one thing or make cheesy jokes every other second. You're like a long lost friend giving a tour of your neighborhood. Keep up the good work! 😊
I really like that you have a "in the field" section and then a recap of your purchases. It gives me a good idea of the things to look for and the places to go for the best merch!
Always love to see your recommendations on the stores and these were amazing Selena, thank you for sharing. I loved all the figures but the Totoro puzzle was really cool. Hope the leg is healing swiftly. Feel better.
I really like your videos! I am taking notes for my visit! My job will require me to go to Tokyo next year, and I’m very excited. I hope I have time for shopping while I’m there.
This is such a well-timed video! My family and I will be in Japan in a couple weeks and we were getting ready to bypass Shinjuku. What a mistake that would've been! Thank you so much! :)
I'm visiting for the first time and so excited. We're staying in the area too, at the Groove. Thank you for the video! One thing I must find is Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service. Is there a lot of Ghibli stuff available?
I spent two weeks in Tokyo back in September. I stayed at Gracery and thought I explored Shinjuku pretty well, but after Kabukiocho Tower, I managed to miss everything else in this video. Guess I'll just have to go back and explore some more.
I’ve started watching your videos in February, I started watching because I plan a trip to Japan in November, and I was kind of interested in figures so I started watching and now I can’t wait to be able to buy a lot of figures, and thank you for this video because I’m staying in Shinjuku, now I know where I’m going first. 😁😁
thanks for your help!! i was searching interesting stores and café colaborations , and stores of retro things, for my next trip to japan in june , i like how interesting and diversity things your put in your channel
I can never find anime merch or video games other than the crane rooms and kabukicho tower when I'm in shinjuku. Awesome video and looks like I'll have to look harder next time.
Love your content so much you are a best youtuber as well as tour guide for us otakus(hardcore anime fans) Happy navrati may ma durga bless you with good health and happiness in your life an you create such great content for us. Jai hind 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🙏🙏🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
hello selena! thankyou so much for this video! i will be in tokyo in march and i will conventiently be staying in this area! i will be sure to check out all of these cool plaaces!~
I've been watching most of your videos, they're fantastic! Love Gojira and wish I had a big epic figure. Especially the design from 80s-90s. The Minus One film was fun to see in theaters. Can't wait to add it to my bluray collection eventually.
Wow, what an adventure! Looking sharp, Selena! :D I really miss the arcade centers. There is one in a mall in my city, but it is nowhere near the size of the ones shown in this video. There used to be many more, but majority of the ones I used to visit went out of business. Great job on the UFO catchers! I love how you can request assistance from the store workers to catch the ones you really want. I love all stores, but especially the ones that specialize in figures and retro games! I guess there is an upside to me not living in Japan. I would be so broke otherwise. xD For some reason, that garden at the roof top reminds me of some of the scenes in Madoka Magica. ;) The editing and pacing of this video are so good. Thank you for your hard work!
Glad to hear your recovery is going well! Always enjoy the figure and merch hunts! Yellow submarine is one of my favorite shops as well, their card sleeve stock is always amazing
loved going to yellow submarine, that small garden is so nice to go see and chill looking it at. Really did miss some of the places you showed. hope your leg is now better. i know how that feels as i broke my foot years ago
Chance on your video right after a very generic one (supposedly sponsored too… aren’t they supposed to put more effort then?) which I was disappointed. I am so happy to have found your video! It’s very genuine guide. Keep it up! ❤
I stayed in Shinjuku when I visited Japan in March and didn’t discover half the places on this list! I thought the nearest Animate and place with a decent amount of gachapon was Shibuya or Akihabara. Thanks for the video, wish I had known about these but if I go again and stay in Shinjuku would be sure to check these out.
I forgot which channel here on RUclips talked about if you go to Japan with high expectations of seeing a ton of anime, then this place isn’t for you because it doesn’t have that much. I was like “really?” So thank you for confirming that what that person said was false. Japan the home of anime has to have a ton of places that have figures, games etc etc. that other person must of been on drugs or something lol. Thank you for your awesome videos always!
Couple minutes into the video and I have to say this video is very detailed!! Honestly, this gives me an idea of what to expect. Really good job Selena, keep it up. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing! I’ve been to Shinjuku a few times but had no idea that most of these places were there. I’m definitely checking them out when I visit Japan again next year!
Wow, what an awesome MEGA video. It's no problem that this took a bit, it's so jam packed with content. I loved all the stores! I really want to go to that roof top garden too. My jaw dropped when you revealed what the kuji was. Sooooo cool! Thanks for another fantastic video!
9:44 HETALIA COLLAB CAFE METIONED AAAAAAAA! On a serious note thank you for showing me this video as im going to japan next month! Cant wait to go there soon!
Your Akihabata and Shibuya videos were super helpful when I was there just a few weeks ago, I will definitely come back to this one when I'm in Shinjuku in the future
Superb video from start to finish, thank you for the guide map and places I did not find on my last trip to Tokyo, I'll be sure to visit next time.look forward to the next video.
Selena I love your videos. Planning to go to Tokyo in Autumn and of course, I will go and get figures for my collection. What I like the most about this video is that you took the time to go to stores outside of Akiba. Thanks and keep on going with your videos.
Hello Selena, this is my first time to watch your video. Its really good that i have to leave a comment to let you know, your pace and speed of the video is relaxing, clear and informative and without the loud music like most youtuber did. The steady flow of the shooting is really nice, which enable us to look clearly at the shop and the products. Really appreciated your hard work. Thank you and will keep watching your video starting now!
Thank you so much Selena, I hope your rehab is going well and you will soon be back out and about. Always take care of yourself first. Thank you for this marvellous vlog and the figures unboxings.❤❤❤👵🏴🌹🌹🌹
Stayed in Shinjuku for a couple of weeks and visited it loads on 3 trips to japan but i never knew about most of these shops! Sorry to hear about your dad ❤️ glad you have the cute memories and Godzilla 🥳
Shopping in Japan looks so amazing, I would blow all my money in one day shopping, especially on some Tokusatsu Merch; that Godzilla looked amazing… also love watching your videos
I only just came across your channel because I searching for Evangelion stores. But you have some great recommendations. As an anime fan and Godzilla fan, I am please and I hope to come visit Tokyo some day.
Wow, I just got back from Japan and did my figure hunting in Akihabara only. I wish I knew of these areas before, they look so nice, especially the rooftop Garden area!
I was just in Shinjuku on Monday!! I went to some of these but some I didn’t know about! Definitely putting them down for next time! There were items on my wishlist that I found at the Shinjuku mulan but my suitcase was already so full 😭 Thanks for another video!! I hope you’re feeling better now 🤍
17:11 omg I've always seem Book Off on japan's yahoo auctions (through buyee). I didn't know they had a whole store/location; that's really good to know and now I feel like I can trust them even more xD
Was in Shinjuku a couple of months ago for 2wks .. but we concentrayed our trips outside of Tokyo tho' didnt even saw Tokyo station and Tokyo tower 😂. Shoutout to L'Breath outdoor store near Shinjuku stn. Those ¥200 oxygen tank save me day during our ascent to Mt. Fuji via the Shubashiri trail, alti sickness was no joke and we also bought new hiking shoes there, staff was super helpfull... also Hi to thise awesome friendly hikers in Mt. Fuji and Mt. Takao. Hoping to be back again in Japan and maybe during the autumn. Was in Osaka also before the pandemic, wedding anniv travel.
Omgomg those Godzilla kuji prices are all awesome! Thanks Selena for this amazing video, I almost cried when I saw the Godzilla store. Next month I'm gonna visit all the places you recommended
I'm glad that you are feeling much better! This video timing is great, I will be in Shinjuku in two weeks and will definitely check some of these places out :)
i will be in Tokyo in November, and this video was great as a reference for places I want to go. I've been looking for an Oregairu store and there you show one!!! I will surely go there. You are a great creator, don't stop making these great videos. Best regards from the tropic :)
My friend would have loved that glow stick Sailor Moon wand ❤ Anya with a toy gun was the best 😂 I get a strange feeling I am getting closer and closer to visiting Japan. Before I would have much rather preferred Europe or Germany but recently had some friends go to Japan and they are already planning to go again lol I might take advantage of that 😂😅
When i think Shinjuku, i think Korean Chicken. Not anime. That's a great haul btw! I even saw a Ghost in the Shell SAC at the vinyls? Those were some amazing stores i didn't know of. There's no shame to Sumimasen at a crane game, no worries
I can watch her channel over and over.. I wonder if she knows how relaxing and great her videos are.
I think it helps when she is speaking english and not using subtles so you can really feel the atmosphere and energy rather then being muted with some back ground music playing with subtles. To me at least, I appreciate that aspect. She also isnt shy to hide her face and really shows you around the block, feels authentic.

Wow! Thank you so much✨
That’s very nice of you😊
These are terrible recommendations
@@user-ib5mx8ro4k Karma is real
I thought Akihabara was the only place to go for anime stuff. Without deep research, no one will even know these places exists!! Thanks for the content!!
always love the way your eyes lights up whenever you talk about the food
The rooftop garden totally gives me the same vibes as the garden from the Eevee episode in the original Pokémon anime 🥹😍😍
I was looking at Snoopy crystal puzzles not long ago online and after seeing Totoro puzzle I'm really tempted to do some looking again! SO nice.
Love the pacing of your videos! You don't obsess over one thing or make cheesy jokes every other second. You're like a long lost friend giving a tour of your neighborhood. Keep up the good work! 😊
I really like that you have a "in the field" section and then a recap of your purchases. It gives me a good idea of the things to look for and the places to go for the best merch!

Hope the leg is healing swiftly. Feel better.
Thank you so much😊
I’m feeling so much better now.
The 3D Totoro puzzle was really fun to build and super cool✨
As someone who went to Japan 3 times last year....you absolutely crushed the best places to go! Well done
I really like your videos! I am taking notes for my visit! My job will require me to go to Tokyo next year, and I’m very excited. I hope I have time for shopping while I’m there.
Thanks! I’m sure you’ll have a blast👍
This is such a well-timed video! My family and I will be in Japan in a couple weeks and we were getting ready to bypass Shinjuku. What a mistake that would've been! Thank you so much! :)
New Selena video! Thank you for showing us these cool places and as always appreciate the anime figure unboxing!

Amazing video 🎉
Amazing video! Everything is so cool👍 thanks Selena!
Great video. I just discovered your channel. Keep up the good work!
Wow, what an adventure! Looking sharp, Selena! :D
I really miss the arcade centers. There is one in a mall in my city, but it is nowhere near the size of the ones shown in this video. There used to be many more, but majority of the ones I used to visit went out of business.

For some reason, that garden at the roof top reminds me of some of the scenes in Madoka Magica. ;)
The editing and pacing of this video are so good. Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you✨
Omgosh you’re right! The garden does remind me of scenes from Madoka😆
Hello, nice video, where did you buy the pop up parade L of Guts ?
Whenever a new video drops out, me and my sister know we are about to have some good dinner content. Chill, fun and amazing content! 🎉
Thank you very much for your videos, enjoy them very much 😊!
I hope your leg is fully recovered 😊!
Beautiful blue T-shirt :)
Glad to hear your recovery is going well! Always enjoy the figure and merch hunts!
Yellow submarine is one of my favorite shops as well, their card sleeve stock is always amazing
Thank you✨
Yeah I agree Yellow Submarine is awesome😊
loved going to yellow submarine, that small garden is so nice to go see and chill looking it at. Really did miss some of the places you showed. hope your leg is now better. i know how that feels as i broke my foot years ago
The rooftop garden is good place to rest at😊
My leg is feeling much better now thank you so much✨

Thank you for showing this. Absolutely perfect for my upcoming Japan trip! It really covers a wide varieties of anime stuff. I’m so happy! 😁
I hope you're healing well and speedy recovery Selena. Thanks for another vid

i would love to see more godzilla! there aren't many english speaking channels that visit the japanese godzilla locations very often.
Couple minutes into the video and I have to say this video is very detailed!! Honestly, this gives me an idea of what to expect. Really good job Selena, keep it up. Thank you.
37:14 Dear Selena, Your Beloved Dad Lives On in Godzilla! Without a doubt, he'll watch Godzilla Minus One with you come November!
🙏
Aww thank you✨
Can’t wait to watch the new movie😊
Thank you for this video❤
Thank you for sharing! I’ve been to Shinjuku a few times but had no idea that most of these places were there. I’m definitely checking them out when I visit Japan again next year!
I am very happy when I see Rurouni Kenshin's characters in the beginning.
She had me with that Code Geass merchandises. I'm really going to visit here.
Wow, what an awesome MEGA video. It's no problem that this took a bit, it's so jam packed with content. I loved all the stores! I really want to go to that roof top garden too.
My jaw dropped when you revealed what the kuji was. Sooooo cool! Thanks for another fantastic video!
Thank you!
The rooftop garden is definitely a nice place to chill at✨
Godzilla is super cool😎
Hi Selena! Missed you!
Right, I was like what happened to her yesterday and now here she is lol
@@kennysdead500 took a long time for her to upload a new vid. Good thing her injury is all good now.
@@christianknight9669 Oh oof I didn't realize (ah now I see in the description...)
Glad she's okay
Im visiting Tokyo in April and can't wait to check out all of these!
Today starts again hot weather.
9:44 HETALIA COLLAB CAFE METIONED AAAAAAAA! On a serious note thank you for showing me this video as im going to japan next month! Cant wait to go there soon!
I had no idea they made a figure of Junior from the ending!! that's so cool!
Your Akihabata and Shibuya videos were super helpful when I was there just a few weeks ago, I will definitely come back to this one when I'm in Shinjuku in the future
Superb video from start to finish, thank you for the guide map and places I did not find on my last trip to Tokyo, I'll be sure to visit next time.look forward to the next video.
ありがとうございます。thank you so much for showing us your hobby. i love how i can really feel your enthusiasm and joy for otaku culture. 🥰😇
The godzilla store looks cool 😎
CC from Code Geass is cute.
Any tips for finding old Steins Gate merch? Im in Japan in a month and don't wanna search endlessly 😢
Thank you for this informative video, I am traveling to Japan soon and I will definitely visit some of these shops!

Rehab is going very well. Walking everywhere to film is definitely helping me strengthen my leg💪
Thank you so much❤
@@selenaisakane That is good to hear. Take care.
Seeing all the code geass merch is so exciting!!! I was there last year and I felt like I only found CG stuff a couple times and they weren't as good.
Stayed in Shinjuku for a couple of weeks and visited it loads on 3 trips to japan but i never knew about most of these shops! Sorry to hear about your dad ❤️ glad you have the cute memories and Godzilla 🥳
All this stuff is so cool. I want to go to Japan one day just to see all these stuff.
This lady is pretty😊. Thanks for putting up this video. I'm going to Japan next month, this is very helpful.

Amazing collection of action figure im the back. All the best animes 😊
very informative vid although I visited shinjuku no less than 5 times, probably close to 10, I still learned new places here!
I was just in Shinjuku on Monday!! I went to some of these but some I didn’t know about! Definitely putting them down for next time!
There were items on my wishlist that I found at the Shinjuku mulan but my suitcase was already so full 😭
Thanks for another video!! I hope you’re feeling better now 🤍
This is very helpful. I didn’t know where to go in shinjuku. I was looking for gatcha and Pokemon crane game.
Amazing video! Shinjuku looks like a fun place to go to and the rooftop garden looks lovely❤
17:11 omg I've always seem Book Off on japan's yahoo auctions (through buyee). I didn't know they had a whole store/location; that's really good to know and now I feel like I can trust them even more xD
The hobby building Yodoboshi sounds and looks like my kind of shopping store
I'm from the usa and I love Precure
I can't believe i didn't know about Kabukicho Tower and the Evangelion VR ride when i went 😭 added it to my itinerary for next year.

Thank you very much for this video! It was very informative, I’ll be visiting Japan soon and this was a great video to watch beforehand
I used your guide today to shop Shinjuku. Didnt find what I wanted, but, the guide was very useful nonetheless. Thanks.
I feel so called out being able to date this video to exactly when you filmed it by the prints angleic pretty's store had out alone haha
Wow Tower Records still exist in Japan?? Amazing!!❤
Amazing! I’m visiting Japan soon, can’t wait to see all the cool stuff🤩
I'm glad that you are feeling much better! This video timing is great, I will be in Shinjuku in two weeks and will definitely check some of these places out :)

this was amazing video and you got some very kawaii things from the ichiban kuji
I will definitely watch this when I’m ever in Japan ❤
0:53 hotel caffe workers must be going crazy with that roar after 10-12h xD
Girrrrrrrrrrl I am staying in Hotel Gracery. Thank you for all these pointers!
When i think Shinjuku, i think Korean Chicken. Not anime.
That's a great haul btw! I even saw a Ghost in the Shell SAC at the vinyls? Those were some amazing stores i didn't know of.
There's no shame to Sumimasen at a crane game, no worries
Hey Selena really enjoy the videos, love to go shopping one day in Japan... That Godzilla looks amazing
