This is my first Halloween in Japan, and also the first halloween I kind of participate since Covid-19 started. I did not dress up though, just took a little walk from shibuya station to Harajuku station. Really amazed at the great lengths people go to make make their halloween costumes eye catching.
During my last trip to Kamakura, i continued on my bucket list in Japan, and that is to visit the famous Slam Dunk railtrack.
It is actually not quite possible to have full body shot like what is been drawn in the comic, but still you can get a good photo of the scene
Let’s see the sunset at Kamakura!
The sunset in Kamakura is breath-taking.
If the weather is good, you can even see mount fuji
If you ever go to Kamakura in Japan,you should try to see the big buddha there at least once. although its only about 3 storeys high, but the surrounding atmosphere is very nice.
Last weekend, Roppongi hill held another event that showcase yet another gigantic Doraemon. This time round the giant statue like anime character was painted over by famous artist and other normal people.
Last week, in a very random meeting with Sake Lover’s Inc’s founder, Kyoko Nagano, I got to know a singaporean female photographer cum videographer cum TV host, Ciel, the following is her facebook.

On the same day, Ciel introduced me to another awesome person who had one of the highest views in Japan on her google food reviews, Cloudia. The following is the link to her food reviews

Cloudia brought us to this bar, where i first saw the so called “Ninja Ice”.
At first, I am not so sure if I want to go to this bar because I am not actually a regular alcohol drinker, and I am concerned i might spoil the fun for alcohol lovers. Somehow eventually, i went with them and I am glad i did!
As a photographer and videographer, i believed 80% of the things in the world needs to be seen to be believed. And this Ninja Ice is definitely something needs to be seen to believe the power of ice made of 100% purity water.
There is a cover charge of about 1000 YEN, and any of the Ninja Ice drink costs around 1400 YEN.
If you want to experience the magic of “Ninja Ice”, this is really money well spent.
Last weekend, there was a event with the most and the biggest Doraemon in Roppongi.
Despite it being one of the oldest comic character in Japan, Doraemon is still very popular among the ages in Japan.
In the video below, you can even see a couple bringing their pet dog to take photo with Doraemon.
Last weekend, the whole omotesande street was closed to allow many dance groups to dance on the road.
There were easily 50 or more dance groups all dancing to different kinds of songs. It is a little weird though they only allow spectators to watch on the side where there are small bushes blocking.
The other side of the road, where we can get a closer and better view, people are not allowed to stop and watch; they have to keep moving.
I managed to take some footages on both sides, hope you like it.
