Looks like you went to lots of good spots. Try to make some time for Numazu/Uchiura if you plan on going back. Also try to hit up a chika idol live, they're surprisingly lots of fun. The one I went to was at TwinBox Akihabara, the staff were very nice even to a very obvious foreigner like myself.

I've been working on a similar post for my blog, maybe this will inspire me to stop being lazy about it.

Really had the urge to visit Numazu but unfortunately I think time constraints and such didn't allow me to fit it in. I'm happy that I was able to still do a couple LL pilgrimages, like with Odaiba and Harajuku, and I'll definitely put Numazu on my checklist for next time!

One of my biggest regrets regarding this trip was not attending a live concert, which I probably should've prepared more for, but yeah that would've been nice to do. I did kinda get a taste of it when I saw kimikara at Tower Records but I'm sure it's a whole different experience when it's at a traditional live house. I'll keep TwinBox in mind now, they seem like a friendly bunch.

Would love to see the post! I did enjoy reading your Hasunosora guide (which was super helpful) so if you ever decide to finish it, I'd be down to check it out 👍
