Where can I find Hansa plush toys?

Does anybody know which toy stores I would be able to find HANSA brand stuffed animals at? I’m looking for a very specific animal and not sure where to search first

Check department stores like Isetan or Matsuya. They often carry a wider selection of higher-end toys. Also, look at specialty toy stores in areas like Ginza or Shibuya – those tend to stock more unusual brands. Failing that, try searching online retailers that ship to Japan; sometimes you find things there that brick-and-mortar stores don't have.

Naitomachi Nightlife?

Naitomachi

I'm heading to Naitomachi next month, it's supposed to be pretty lively at night. Heard it's got a great, hidden little ramen shop tucked away down a side street – the kind of place only locals know… more

Naitomachi at night is awesome! Seriously buzzing. Don't worry too much about getting lost – just use Google Maps or a similar app offline; that'll save your bacon. The streets are pretty well-lit, even the smaller ones. As for the ramen place... good luck finding it without a recommendation. Most of the truly amazing, tucked-away spots are discovered by accident or word-of-mouth. Maybe try asking your hotel or a local bar tender – they'll know the real deals. Enjoy your trip! You'll have a blast.
