The smell of Tokyo

November 2, 2006

I mentioned before that I wondered what the smell of Tokyo would be like.

Now I know. I found it in a Manga Cafe.

 

I…I don`t want to SPECULATE what causes it. It`s beyond a locker room smell, or even a Metro Manila bus smell. But a manga cafe is just what  it sounds like: rows and rows of manga, booths for internet, reclining chairs, and free coffee. I`m on my second cup as I type.

I`m researching good manga art to buy in a bookstore. The list I made so far:

  • tokyo tribes 2 santa inoue
  • tokyo graffiti
  • super strike ta-29 yamamoto yohko
  • buzzer beater inoue takehiko
  • mataharina moyoko anno
  • death note
  • hellsing kota hirano
  • tattoo shu akana
  • island youn in-wan
  • basilisk
  • blodod sucker legend of zipangu
  • old boy garounds jiya
  • countach haruto umezawa

I paid Y980 for 4 hours of free use of the manga and internet. With it, I`m checking off one of the last of my to-do list while in Tokyo. With four more days to go, I`ll visit the last of the interesting places in this mega-city, and buy the rest of the pasalubong.
