Date: March 17th, 2023 3:51 AM Author: Grizzly fluffy space roommate are the cherry blossoms still in bloom?
0. if so, nakameguro (still worth going if not in bloom, but it's 190 atmosphere if the cherry blossoms haven't passed peak already) 1. yoyogi park 2. senso-ji 3. took bad edo tokyo hakubutsukan is closed for renovations, it's 180 4. book a ryokan with a hot spring in hakone, preferably one with a tasting menu, enjoy soaking with a view of mt fuji and a bunch of weird japanese foods you'll NEVER find in the states 5. there's no sumo comps in march, but see if you can visit a sumo stable to watch practice 6. meiji shrine is in a beautiful setting 7. in case you're wondering, it's definitely too late for you to get tickets to the ghibli museum; they sell out months in advance |

Go back to Reddit. |
|
Date: March 17th, 2023 9:31 AM Author: Grizzly fluffy space roommate it's not possible to start a list with 0 on reddit because it auto-detects numbered lists and forces initial-1
i just made a list and then was too lazy to re-number but i think 0 is the most important |

|
Date: March 17th, 2023 9:06 AM Author: misanthropic glassy point thank you for the legit recommendations!
I think cherry blossoms might start end of next week/probably after I leave.
Ghibli is a bit overrated anyway, if they sell out months in advance, not worth it. |
|
Date: March 17th, 2023 9:32 AM Author: Grizzly fluffy space roommate i really enjoyed it, but it's definitely not for everyone, you gotta be fine with getting on your knees to crawl through tiny doors and stuff, and if you aren't really into their movies (like i drove to another city to see Princess Mononoke when it limited release in the US) then it's not a must-do
the ticket to get in used to be an actual strip of film from one of their movies, mine is a clip from the Cat Returns I think; i still have it somewhere |

|
Date: March 17th, 2023 8:54 AM Author: Arousing Gaping Do NOT do: robot cafe, samurai museum, anything else that is aggressively advertised to gaijin
DO visit: ukiyo-e museum, akihabara/ikebukuro if weeaboo, yasukuni to pay respects to the true heroes enshrined there
I liked shinjuku gyoen better than yoyogi park, definitely visit at least one |
|
Date: March 17th, 2023 9:09 AM Author: misanthropic glassy point Definitely headed to the Ota Museum. Enjoyed the Ukiyo-e museum in Osaka. Might also check out antique stores. If I find an ukiyo-e that catches my eye, might buy one.
Went to Ikebukuro in search of some One Piece swag. It was pretty disappointing overall. The store in Shibuya had what I was looking for. |
|
Date: March 17th, 2023 9:12 AM Author: Arousing Gaping Ikebukuro is more fringe and girly stuff. For shounen jump I'd say try the big akiba chain stores of maybe nakano broadway (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5308068&forum_id=2#46063461) |

|
Date: March 18th, 2023 11:20 AM Author: Grizzly fluffy space roommate i have a specific work by hiroshige, Kambara (the winter version from the 53 stations of tokaido), that I want to buy an original of ("original" here meaning "printed during his lifetime" since there's obviously not a single original of a woodblock print), but i keep putting it off
it's my favorite ukiyoe of all time |
|
Date: March 18th, 2023 12:00 PM Author: misanthropic glassy point I went to two Ukiyo-e galleries/stores today.
One had plenty of Hiroshiges. (Yes, I understand what you mean by original. Personally, I don't think it's worth buying modern reproductions.)
Of course, even with the original print runs, there's a huge variance on quality and if the printer was a skilled one or not (register, colors, etc.). Many of the less popular/lower quality Hiroshiges were in the $2k ballpark. Famous ones were closer to $50-90k. |
|
Date: March 18th, 2023 12:39 PM Author: Grizzly fluffy space roommate yeah i've seen reprints of the one i want from mid-century that go for a few hundred dollars; i'm hoping to get one for under 10K. I don't need M/NM quality. A dog-eared corner or something where there isn't any of the actual work is perfectly fine; it'll be mounted, framed, and hung on my wall, and yeah i have a mini-gallery i rotate my collection through at my house and try to curate themes, and i have museum rails to swap them out, and i have some good lighting, but i still don't need to drop that much on something
i'm not a museum that needs the best quality to preserve it mint; I want to enjoy the work, and some aging probably makes it more valuable to me personally as i acn look at it knowing it's REAL
kind of like diamonds where flaws make them more valuable than perfect factory ones
thanks for the link; i've not seen that one before. I've emailed a couple Japanese-language galleries before (not gonna pay as much bc I won't be paying for the convenience of having an English speaker intermediary I don't need), but I really should get off my butt and tell them if they see one they can acquire and resell to me, let me know |
|
Date: March 18th, 2023 12:55 PM Author: misanthropic glassy point I'm not talking about dog-earred or frayed corners. There are some that legit have fewer colors applied. I saw one (at a different store), where they skimped out on colors by making all the people wear green clothes instead of different colored clothing. Color streak marks or unevenly applied layers or even white spaces are really noticeable when you look at them in person. If it's selling for $1k as opposed to $10k, that's the reason why. It's very noticeable and not faithful to what the artist had in mind (remember the person who prints it is not the artist, so a rookie may have done it, resulting in a subpar result.)
