Animeland Japan

My wife and I had an amazing time in Japan! We visited Tokyo, Kyoto, Mt. Fuji & Osaka. Sadly we did not run into any Streetfighters, veritechs, or giant Kaiju monsters. Imagine every anime combined, from Robotech to Miyazaki films, and that you are actually in it and thats Japan! You'll find plenty of Hi-tech cities to ancient temples, landscapes & toys to take a whopping 2000 pics. Theres too much to say and show, but I'll try to post a few interesting pics.Mechanical man directing cross walk.I don't know whats more terrifying, Skulltulas or giant hotdog shaped spiders!
Replenish all Heart Containers by drinking free holy water!

Tree Spirits don't show up on digital film:(

Pray to the Ancient Deku Tree. Howl's moving castle disappeared evertime I took a shot:(

Healing potion prices weren't too bad.
Their toy shops were so crazy that they make the local anime con & shops look weak.
The SD firedepartment hydrant lid on the sidewalk.

The Cat Bus was in disguise as a regular bus and brought us to Ghibli Museum.

It's hard to find good freelance robot mechanics these days.
Some statues give valuble info when you hit them with your sword.

The Master Sword was in safe keeping.

I heard that if you open Pandora's box on that bridge, it'll take you to a Saturday morning cartoon.Crime rate is so low, that they leave the Time Gates ungaurded.
Level 1 entrance is still preserved.
Ryu prays here on Thursdays when its less crowded.I really want to climb those walls.

Finally some Warhammer reference.

I feel more powerful with this Japanese exclusive Phantom Hourglass DS pen with Hyrulian shield screen cleaner. It's thickness is of a standard pen for better comfort on those long hours dungeon play on the flight home.

Back in the 80s or maybe even 70s, there were these little pullback cars that drove off on a wind up motor and did tricks when you put a coin on the back slot called Pennyracers. Well, in Japan, they are called ChoroQ and are still hot. My favorite toys right now!
There are remote control versions called QSteer. These are truly my most favorite to race these on my drawing table using office supplies for track boundaries. They run on LR44 watch batteries & up to 4 cars can race simultaneously. They were about 12 US dollars each.
