JAPAN THREAD 2007 (Konnichiwa B!tches!)

its close enough, hehe. and ur odds for sex are MUCH higher in roppongi.

what’re some good places where the dj’s just spin hiphop, and the crowd actually DANCES? my girl and i gonna wanna party when she gets here, and i don’t wanna be getting hype at clubs when everyone is just standing around or swaying to music. there’s no american-type clubs around here?

i just got to japan a week ago, and i’m staying at corporate housing in roppongi. i’m pretty down to party so just lemme know whenever something is going down. probably can’t join the pussy hunt though unfortunately :expressionless: i’m asian anyway, so i probably wouldn’t get play from the locals regardless.

i’m not as interested in playing games as before, but i guess i still kinda know how to play cvs… i’m mad shitty now though.

I’m gonna roll thur shibuya kaikan and prolly shinjuku club sega… (This afternoon)

I’ll be the only dood in the game center with a football, red NEGRO INSTALL T-Shirt, army pants, Braves hat, & White a BAPE Bag. If you miss me, U ARE BLIND!

Hey, Monkee! This is Nate - the guy you met in Shibuya today. I play CvS, 3S, T5DR and GGAC. I’m not good at any of those, but if anyone wants to get some games in sometime, I’m down for whatever. Just hit me up on PM. Take it easy.

-H20!-

Yeah man, yesterday sucked for me… I need to play more 3rd strike and learn how to play CVS2

yo i will be at kai kan the day after tomarrow in the afternoon (june 06) at about 1400 - 1800. white guy, company cloth atire, wid a orange ID strap thingy around my nec. my name is jason.

i play 3s, CVS2.

3s, necro, makoto
CVS2, P guile, cammy, (2)sagat/rolento

whats up scott, this is allen, saw u at kaikan a couple days ago. whats the word? anywhos this is my first post in this thread, but i play at kai kan about 4-6 days a week, im the white dude with red hair, i only play cvs2 and pretty much only play A - balrog, blanka, vega R2, but have been mixin it up with blanka R2 recenlty, lol. well if any of you see me there say hi.

Keith…when I stayed in Shibuya, the only club I checked out (the one every local told me to go to) was "Harlem."
It was fairly American and they spun the typical top-40 rap/r&b…which I personally don’t bump, but you and your girl could get your boogie on there absolutely. It was packed when I went.
Heres brief info about it:

Hope that helps.

it literally says “better be looked at Eminem or Dr. Dre to get attention from the ladies”. I mean let me just bust my hip hop chains out. This is like Vuenos in Shibuya, but not as bad lol.

:rofl:…thats just hyperbole though. I’ve been there.
If anything, that pertains to the Japanese guys who go there moreso than the foreigners…

is harlem close to club asia? i think i stumbled past it one time. i dont really remember how i got there, but i swear it was next to club asia. i was drunk so who the fuck knows

shaaaaaady: aight coo i’ll check that place out sometime. when you go to hiphop clubs here in japan is it like mostly bboy circles or something? for some reason i’m hella picturing that…

harlem is just down the block from club asia/vuenos in the love hotel hill area. club atom is right next to that too if ur down for some para-para action, haha. hiphop in tokyo pretty similar to the states minus the grinding. you’ll almost never goto a regular mainstream hiphop night and see bboys. in fact, a lot of the clubs will break up the battles and close the circles… then buy u a shot afterwards as an apology, haha. if u want real underground hiphop then u hafta keep an eye out for dance events and contests cuz thats a whole different scene.

i’ve heard of para-para, but i have no idea wtf that is…

haha, good to hear about the bboy thing. i didn’t wanna go clubbing and just end up in an environment where people are just staring at dance circles the whole night.

at this point i know pretty much NOTHING about tokyo’s night-life, so i’m just imagining how shit might be. all i’ve done in terms of shit like that was hit up gas panic bar once in roppongi while i was on vacation. music would get randomly shitty there, and this one girl i got to dance was hella fixated on this surfing thing they had playing on tv. shot glasses there were like the size of thimbles too.

next time i go to any bar/club here in japan i’m just gonna get tanked before i leave the apartment…

how does everyone always end up at Gas Panic. Like how did that place get so famous for sucking shit off of hot pavement with a small straw?

Met some girls at First Bar in Roppongi last Saturday. I would recommend that place. Nice atmosphere +free entry. Drink prices own you though.

dude, when ever i got to any bar/club, i just go there for the atmosphere, not the drinks. for the drinks, i just buy a bottle of JD(1/5) 1350Yen at the alcohal discount store, drink it, then enter the free-entry club/ bar. that is what i learned from throwing hella money away for the shitty prices, and my girlfirneds half shot coctails…

dude next time you go out to roppongi, pm me cuase i am out there bout every other weekend and my lady can bring some of her friends, which i wish i could fuck, with her so we can have some fun. but it probablly is a bad idea to bring sand to the beach hugh?

I guess so. I’m tied up with women right now so prolly not headin there this weekend. Might head over to Neo Lounge. Met some DJ who does alot of major clubs in shibuya at first bar in Roppongi last week. goin with some dudes i live with to check it out. Free entry cuz you know the DJ is pretty happinin.

that one time i went to gas panic was cuz it was the only place open. my friend took me to out look for clubs on like a weds night or something. it wasn’t hella good or nothing, but i mean shit it was better than nothing. the trains were all done for the night too, so it was pretty much a god-send at that point.

neither of us really knew the clubbing scene though. noobs doing noob shit i suppose.

ok, i will be at kaikan this weekend (again) on saturay and sunday. i am just gonna stay on 3s in b1. i will be the only white guy in that section like i always am.

so i spent like three something hours today walking all around shinjuku and yeah… i couldn’t really find shit there worth doing that i haven’t seen in other places. i told bas i would try to make the 2on2 at sport’s land, but i didn’t even run into the place the entire time i was walking around. what’s the main reason people go to shinjuku for anyway? i remember hitting up MORE a few times back when it was still somewhat the cvs haven, but i mean that was when i still hella played the game.

i explored akihabara last weekend, and it’s pretty much known to be the electronics central in japan so i got what i expected. the weekend before that i walked around shibuya for a while, and it seems like a poppin/trendy place for people to kick it. is there a night life in shinjuku? i can see myself goin back to shibuya or akihabara for whatever, but i dunno i think i’m gonna have to explore shinjuku some more before i find anything there. place seemed big as fuck too.

question: how late do people normally kick it at clubs generally? i’m talking about people who are out to club, but that’s it. not talking about people hooking up and crashing at some random sex hotel. i’m curious cuz for the most part i’m gonna wanna go home after clubbing, but don’t the trains stop around 12 or something on weekends? i mean shit unless people here start clubbing at 9pm, i don’t see how people are gonna be done in time to go home. i’ve stayed out the whole night in tokyo before, but shit i’m not gonna wanna do that everytime i go partying… so yeah, how does that shit work? do people just start and end earlier here, or do they all just stay out the whole night? this was never an issue back in the US when i had a car, but yeah…
