Meidocafe and, of course, moar Akihabara <3
First stop, the popular chain maid cafe, @home cafe
4 floors of meido-action. We just went to the first floor
I have to admit, better than the Gundam cafe (in both taste and looks) – probably due to the Moe-moe-kyun! spell
You get called up on “stage” to get your picture taken with a maid (in exchange for money of course)
If you got the set, you get a membership card and a box of cookies (is it just me or does that look like Hayate?)
Played around at the Hey arcade
Under Night In-Birth, the next French Bread fighting game post-Melty Blood Actress Again Code Current. Looked pretty good but I was too pansy to fight the Japanese guy across from me so I just watched.
Here’s some gameplay video of Mr. Mysterious Nihonjin on the last boss (lots of background noise, since we were in the arcade fighting game section)
Kido Senshi Gundam: Senjo no Kizuna, aka Gundam pods. I played some last year and while somewhat fun, way too low resolution and awkward controls ; /
jubeat, the rhythm game that I fell in love. So many 100 yens spent on this, mostly playing “Only My Railgun” and “PonPonPon”
First attempt at Only My Railgun (6)
First attempt at PonPonPon (7) – by the end of the trip I could full combo this (but still came in last against local players, QQ)
Vstone Robot Center, what paradise!
Radio Kaikan! (new building beside the old one)
Different stores on all floors
Azone store on F6, took lots of pics ^_^
My favourite in the entire store
There was a special display for the upcoming Code Geass and Idolm@ster prize figures
Also enjoyed some MaiMai, though I found its scoring system way too lenient ; /
Miku itashi spotted! (no good pic though)
Got to end the day with some desert of course!
Stay tuned for more Japan Akihabara goodness!
