Tokyo Swan 16: Asakusa

[freacls]

i HAVE to goto Japan before i die aww those  little Kimono dolls you can get them in the UK i have some of them i love Japanese things also i have a few Geisha dolls

[fatlittlenick]

Asakusa was the first area i explored in Tokyo and it would have to be my favorite area in Tokyo. I stayed at Hotel Yanagibashi (HIGHLY recommended, seriously. the family that runs it are so awesome) I only got back from Tokyo 3 days ago and want to go back already. I will live there one day! one day...

[TokyoNerd]

Love the music swan, you might not have had the latest editing equipment, but it always seemed that way after watching your videos. R.I.P.

[R4nd0mn33s]

You're such a ladies man. hahahh

I loved going to Asakusa cos' at night there was sooo many food stalls, delicious stuff.

And the shops before the temple was really interesting with loads of gifts I could give to my friends.

"there still is a red light dist....but we coudlnt find it" lmao

[thefatman69dude]

[htoonlelk]

I went about 3-4 weeks ago and our hotel was in asakusa

[aaronranmafan]

Was the skys and the view just spectacular?

[JSM9393]

I live in Holland, and in a dutch gaming programme they went to tokyo and saw this, they called it the Gold Sperm xD

Nice vid though!

[lazypuddycat]

Haha, the boob cakes are ALL over Japan. I've seen them from Hiroshima to Tokyo. I got them as おみやgi (I haven't figured out how to use this japanese keyboard yet) Sometimes, you just can't figure what to get people back home. This will do. :P

[RoselTea]

The deadly Fugu! Have you eaten that?!

[ColCol7391]

it's not steam it's smoke. lol

i've been there before and it's really cool to see everything i saw there, now on youtube. very tight!

random little factoid, at :27 u see the little corner of a building next to the main gate to Senso-ji. There's a miyazaki/studio ghibli souvenir shop there. i know it's weird but my friends and i spent lots of time in it. huge miyazaki nerds! lol

[slayer2040]

[Pobot21]

They looked like normal cakes but.....nope....nope.ha ha ha

I watched all of the Tokyo Swan eps in one night.I like them just as much as the J-Horror reviews,though I still wanna see more of those.I think you said the second and third sequel to Suicide club had come out in Japan and not the US,did you find them?

[sgis]

New years greetings from Rm 412 =D

[catfish572]

Hey I went to Asakusa and bought Christmas presents the weekend before last :) It's so weird to see stuff in your videos that I just saw...like that wall of oni masks, I bought one of those for my friend. Did have some of the sweet hot sake? It's delicious! Also, the boat from Asakusa to Odaiba is pretty cool...

[GaijinDevin]

It is a yam or potatoe, I cant remember. And its there because they used to cook the beer with one of those two in the vat. If my memory serves me right. Great Video btw.

[NichiBeiTrader]

It was originally designed as a "Flame d'Or" (golden flame), but has since been referred to as "O-gon no unko" (golden poop) by the general public!
