So I want to visit Tokyo...

[WHSLacrossekid]

I've been to Beijing when I was younger and love the Asian culture. I am very intrigued by Tokyo and want to visit very badly. How much would a good fun trip to Tokyo cost and how long is a decent time to stay?

How good are you in terms of withholding your money from eager sellsmens itching to sell you the latest gadgetry?

He's merely mocking many young American men's obsession with Japanese/other Asian cultures, their opinions seemingly based solely upon anime and video games.

i'm a twinkie. yellow outside but white inside. and fyi, i've NEVER dated any asian girls in my life.

gee, you guys b!tch when someone makes fun of your culture and you also b!tch when someone tries to understand it and share it. that's sad.

It really has nothing to do with video games, anime, or asian girls. I guess I'll just forget I ever asked.

Oh, god, for chrissakes, dont' call yourself an egg. That's the lamest term ever...! Twinkies are ok i guess. Banana is better though.

Fixed. It's no joke.

Who the fvck describes themself as yellow outside but white inside? I'm not a fan of aZn PRydE, but TwInKie PryDe is just fvcking stupid.

The Japanese don't have a problem with young Americans that want to visit the country to have fun and learn about the culture. They have a problem with the Americans that go over there and act like demons from hell.

As for what to do and where to go in Tokyo, that definitely depends on what sort of things you enjoy doing.

It's a lot more expensive to visit Tokyo than Beijing. I would stay for at least a week for vacation to get my money's worth on the plane ticket.

egg is white outside, yellow inside...so a twinkie/banana would be the opposite?

so are you asian or white, Juno?

 

[EGGO]

As someone who was raised there, you need lots of money. I'm glad you're going for the culture, a lot of us don't like how people are into it for the anime/manga thing.

Going back on topic, it is very expensive, OP. There's a lot in Tokyo, but if you visit all of Japan, a lot of the stuff you can get is cheaper and can be found elsewhere.
