I really want to thank you! I had a shopping day on my final full day in Tokyo and one of my friends wanted Sonic merch. I did not have time to go to Odaiba after wasting almost half a day in Akihabara (I could've had a even worse time sink there tbh). Your clue about Yamishiroya really saved me. Thanks!
That's awesome! Happy to hear it was helpful!! Hope you had a great time! Apologies for the slow reply. I have been away for a few weeks. Cheers for watching!
Thank you, I appreciate you watching it. I reworked the cover photo and title so hopefully that will help views pick up, but unfortunately this is one of my less-viewed video at the moment. Ah well! Cheers again for watching!
Watching this video felt like stepping into a parallel universe. I live in the States where I have to go dozens of miles or even more to find any splatoon merch, but sonic is actually quite easy to find, even at a random local supermarket
They have a Sonic section at Don Quixote, at least in Osaka they had it in May. They sold the Sonic and Friends plushies and many keychains! If you're back in Japan I recommend it!
Love the vid! I went to Tokyo summer 2023 and had a blast hunting down Sonic merch! I'd love to see more of your Sonic merch hunts (or general SEGA items). It's a bit of a shame Sonic merch in his home country isn't more easily findable cause what they make for Japan is SO COOL. (really love the apparel)
Thank you. Much appreciated. It's a shame, it's my highest effort video and also my lowest performing 😅 Maybe I need a better cover photo or something. Thank you for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@@HillTopTerebi CZcams algorithms sure are a stinker, huh? Don't let it discourage you! As long as people are watching and you're satisfied with your own content, it will be worth it :)
I saw one of those classic sonic statues 8:23 sell on a swedish website for like 300kr aka around 30 euro 27 pound 33 dollars give or take. I should have bought it, but I don't have any more room for merch.
I recently encountered your channel and I'm amazed how good quality it is, and how old school it is as well, good job it reminds me of tokyo conney channel, cheers from puerto rico!
I've written down every place you've visited, as I'm going to Japan for the first time in June! You said at the end that there were other places as well. Would you please tell me about them? Sonic merch hunt will be the main part of my solo trip, and I want to be well informed before going. Thanks beforehand!
Awesome video! I'm going on vacation to Japan this month and I'm keen on getting some cool Sonic merch, but I heard Sonic is not that popular there. I'll be sure to keep my eye on these locations, thanks!!
@@HillTopTerebi Thank you, it was indeed awesome!! I bought a bunch of cool merch in Joypolis and also saw a lot of cool Sonic stuff in Onoden. I spotted a few Tails and Knuckles nendoroids AND even the Soft B Sonic figure! I also saw one of the Sonic 25th's Anniversary statues for only a measely 3600 yen, but I sadly had no more space in suitcase for it :(
I'm always intrigued about how fans are able to find some really uquinqe pices of sonic merch internationally and this video was no exception my personal favorite item from your haul would have to be that shadow badge that for Some reason has sonics name on it rather then shadow's
I’m currently in Japan now and besides the sonic nendroid and some Sonic blind bags that were of cheap key rings, I haven’t found anything else. Will have a look at some of the stores that you suggested though. Hopefully I’ll find something!
No worries! It worked out great, I randomly found the Sonic frontiers figure in a shop in Kobe (Similar to the shop you went in Akihabara but much smaller) for about 3000 yen and then on the anime street in Osaka, I found the exclusive 20th anniversary Sonic, can’t remember how much in yen but was about £60, I wasn’t going to get it but I thought I’d regret it and splurged anyway 😅 I did go to Yamshiroya because of your video and although the store is probably one of the best ones I’ve been too, unfortunately the Sonic stuff was very minimal with barely anything sonic left, but got a keychain anyway. Thanks again for your video!
Thanks for this ! I'm, planning for a trip to tokyo and wanna get some merch too so this was really helpful ! In regards to Joypolis, do we have to pay for a ticket if we just want to access the merch shop and not the arcade stuff ?
Hi! Glad you enjoyed the video. From memory, there's a base entry price that's very cheap (a few hundred yen) that just lets you in (which also has access to the shop) and then you can pay for attractions separately should you want to. Or there's another one which includes unlimited access to all the attractions (some of which are pretty good to be fair). Happy merch hunting!!!

This was a weirdly thrilling hunt! Always love your videos!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
I’m surprised this doesn’t have many views. This hunt is really well edited. 👍

Awesome video! It’s great you enjoyed the holiday and the hunt for Sonic merchandise.
Yes next time we need to have a drink!
Thanks dude! Next time for sure! It's a shame we so narrowly missed it this time.

Thanks for finding Japanese place for Sonic merch.I hope want to buy them when I travel here.
I like your channel man it’s well done

Speaking of Japanese sonic merch, I recently got an sa1 Tails plush for a decent price.
Nice! They must be pretty rare to come by. Congrats!

What a fun video! Hope you visit Nakano Broadway in Tokyo on your next visit. They have some Sonic merch there too.

I imagine my nephew grow up as u since he ask everything about sonic for his birthday this year 😂😂😂
I'm going to japan next month, so i try looking for sonic video shopping on yutub and found ur video, tq love it! ❤

Most favorite country in the world is insane , considering you probably haven't even visited more than 10 countries out of the 291 😅
thanks you!!!!!!!
Just saw your video and was moved!! I'm going to Tokyo this year and fingers cross I come across any Sonic merch or Sonic Adventure even 😢
You will love it. Tokyo is a wonderful place! Good luck on your search!

Haha yep that was a strange decision from the badge designers. Thank you for watching! 🙂
I just finished watching Night of the Werehog and now I’m watching this! And I have no bloody clue if your voice is A.I or not!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haha a few people have said that but I assure you it is real 😂 Thank you for watching!
@@HillTopTerebi Thank god!! 🤣
Love your videos! Came across you through the SatAM video 😊

How did it work out for you? Sorry I am four months late responding to this. I missed the notification!

I will be in Tokyo this weekend. Where do you recommend to go to in June 2024 for Sonic merch????
Gotta Go Fast!
Nice
Would love to do this but know I can't ever do so because I'm poor and would also get lost immediately here
Didn't square enix arrested Yuki naka
wow! how much was the sonic with the koco?
Wow, good to know it’s a waste a time to try to find Sonic. Nothing here interested me 😢
Sonic does love Amy, fun fact. It's just that Yuji was just stubborn and narrow-minded.
