I'm no cosplay expert, but I thought you'd find it interesting to take a look at some cosplay shops in Tokyo. When I was walking around Akihabara, I found that they're not that obvious or that easy to find. So I'd recommend pinning these stores on a map on your phone, so you can find them when you're in Japan. In the video we have a look at Acos Akihabara, M's Pop Life Store (over 18s only - not really a cosplay store, as I discovered!!), Don Quijote, Bodyline in Harajuku, Nakano Broadway (another great place to go if you like anime, manga and otaku goods) and DenDen Town in Osaka.

Haha, Phil hasn't done any cosplay - but I think he could be persuaded to do a group cosplay from Persona 4 or 5!

I don't know what it is about them! Maybe because you hear them a lot when you're going from place to place, but they're not really something you focus on. They go into your subconscious!
god just got back from Japan and this video makes me miss it so much.

At 3:59 大人のデパートclearly means department store for adults :) But despite having been twice to Akihabara I never noticed that one, then again I probably would not be visiting it myself ^^. I still have to get used to the concept of stores and restaurants being on higher floors myself. Something I seldomly see at places in the Netherlands and Germany, most things here are all on the ground level. Once again an interesting and fun to watch video. Thanks @Cakes with Faces :)

Same here in the UK, you'd never have to go up a tiny escalator between shops to get to a restaurant or something! Yes I can see the Japanese sign now! A lot of people might be surprised by that store!!
Finally someone answering the real questions 😤

Haha, I follow lots of Japan blogs etc on Twitter and watch a lot of Japan videos! I keep a collection of interesting places on Pinterest - my username's Cakeswithfaces on there if you want to see it (it's really messy, I made it for my own reference mostly!)
I think that your video is a video that can reduce troubles with Japanese people traveling to Japan! I am very grateful as a Japanese for bridging Japan and overseas! I'm sorry because I'm Japanese, so I'm sorry.

They no longer do the cosplay publicly anymore due to some sort of killing that took place there, right?
@cakeswithfaces

There was a terrible massacre in Akihabara in 2008. They stopped pedestrianising the streets for a while after that. However as I understand it, I don't think there were ever many cosplayers on the streets in Akihabara. Coasplay's something that people do at conventions and events, rather than on the street. So if you want to see cosplayers, look out for anime cons or special events.
Hi! Is there any JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure cosplays?
