    Awesome. Thanks for the tour Aimee and Victor. I did visit the Shibuya Parco store. I'm not really a Pokemon guy, but I did want to see it and experience it. Happy that fans have these options to load up on goodies.

    Very informative!! Always a delight seeing Victor in videos even if it was mostly just his voice ;D
    Definitely gotta visit the one in Nihonbashi!

    Went to the centers at Sunshine City and Parco last time I was in Tokyo ... not because I am a fan of Pokémon but because a friend is and I wanted to get him something. Parco does have other good shop in shops as well as Pokémon and Nintendo stores.
    Also why do I have a mental image of @frameoftravel probably spending a great deal of time studying that game timeline and making notes for his collection

    Helpful videos. Been watching your videos for 5 hours now lol. Really helped me building my Itinerary but noticed you don't have Kyoto and Osaka yet.

      Glad to hear you find them helpful! We've got a good amount of info over on our Japan Cheapo website (japancheapo.com/) about Kyoto and Osaka but yes, hopefully in the future some videos will be coming as well!

    I had no idea there was more than one, thought the one in ikebukaro was it… or are the others (mostly) new(ish)? Post 2018/19?

    • @tokyocheapo
      @tokyocheapo  Před 5 měsíci +1

      A few of them are newish like the Shibuya store opening in 2019 and the new Nihonbashi location in 2018 😊

    Love the video. We are headed to Japan in late spring for the first time with our son who will be 12 by then. He is a huge pokemon fan and got me into it. I thought it was cute when I was younger but now as a middle aged mom I have no shame to say I love pokemon. I just wonder though, do Japanese teens and adults like pokemon or is it seen as more for smaller kids?

    • @tokyocheapo
      @tokyocheapo  Před 4 měsíci

      Haha love that you're into Pokemon now too! From our experience, there's a lot of adult Pokemon fans, both Japanese and non-Japanese alike. Hope you have a wonderful trip in spring!

    Do you need a reservation to buy the Pokémon Café merch? Or that store is separated from the restaurant?

  • @andrewoshawott1611
    @andrewoshawott1611 Před 3 měsíci

    Is there a need for reservations or are all the stores walk-in?

    • @tokyocheapo
      @tokyocheapo  Před 3 měsíci +1

      They are all walk-in's 😊 Although, on particularly busy days, they may limit the number of people in the store at one time.
