Shinjuku 7-11 Enigma?

fmd_good Seven Eleven Shinjuku Grand Plaza

So I'm heading to @Tokyo next month and I've heard legends about the Seven Eleven Shinjuku Grand Plaza – apparently it's like, seven stories of pure convenience store bliss. I'm planning on spending,… more

Dude, that place is insane. I once saw a whole display dedicated to extremely niche fishing lures. Like, lures shaped like tiny, impossibly detailed crabs. Seriously, I’m talking miniature works of art that probably cost more than my rent. And the sheer variety of onigiri? Forget Godzilla, they had some that looked like…well, I still have nightmares. Also, they had a whole section of those little plastic capsule toys – gashapon – but it was like a museum exhibit. They had everything from vintage ones from the 80s to the latest craze. It's less a convenience store and more a curated experience. Prepare to be overwhelmed.

Yodobashi Fourth's Secret?

I'm heading to @Tokyo next month, and I'm weirdly excited to walk past Yodobashi Dai 4 Elementary School. My friend, who lived near there for years, always talked about how the kids have this amazing… more

Lol, your friend's got a good imagination! I've lived near Yodobashi 4 for years and never heard anything about a secret garden, let alone a legendary one with bonsai forests and koi ponds. Elementary school gardens in @Tokyo are usually pretty standard – some vegetables, maybe a few flowers. Nothing too wild. Unless... your friend was pulling your leg? Maybe she was the one with the secret, hidden imagination? 😉

Haha, yeah, I figured it was a bit of a stretch! She's a notorious storyteller, so I should've seen that coming. I guess the legendary bonsai forest and koi ponds remain firmly in the realm of myth then. Thanks for the reality check! Still, it got me thinking... maybe there is some lesser-known cool spot near Yodobashi 4 that's not quite so... legendary. Any hidden non-legendary gems you know about? 😉
