    I think it helps when she is speaking english and not using subtles so you can really feel the atmosphere and energy rather then being muted with some back ground music playing with subtles. To me at least, I appreciate that aspect. She also isnt shy to hide her face and really shows you around the block, feels authentic.

    Wow, what an adventure! Looking sharp, Selena! :D I really miss the arcade centers. There is one in a mall in my city, but it is nowhere near the size of the ones shown in this video. There used to be many more, but majority of the ones I used to visit went out of business. Great job on the UFO catchers! I love how you can request assistance from the store workers to catch the ones you really want. I love all stores, but especially the ones that specialize in figures and retro games! I guess there is an upside to me not living in Japan. I would be so broke otherwise. xD For some reason, that garden at the roof top reminds me of some of the scenes in Madoka Magica. ;) The editing and pacing of this video are so good. Thank you for your hard work!
