Rather than a micro, this apartment is a 1K (one room with kitchen) and that makes all the difference! This is an apartment where a person can live instead of only enduring/surviving.

Usui-san, this 1K apartment is the best one yet and VERY doable. 1. Unlike the previous apartment, every little room is nicely separated. 2. Bathroom/toilet/kitchen spaces are of a good size. Plus the coveted TOILET PAPER storage! 3. Spacious loft, could be used for more than sleeping. Maybe a home cinema/gym setup? 4. The ladder could be permanently retired, being put into its anchor slot in the wall. A small set of stairs could be put in, with steps used for storage. 5. Plus the ladder rungs could be used to hang clothes from. Or perhaps storage boxes - just a thought! 6. A bed, desk and plants are very doable in this apartment. 7. You have room for a combined refrigerator/freezer. 8. The shoe closet could be used as extra clothes/towel storage etc! 9. You have your own balcony and the windows let in a lot of light! You can definitely live here! 😁

These are really good ideas and I find 18 sqm the absolute minimum size for one person.

Compared to last episode, this one is a luxurious mansion! 😅 The living room seems big enough, the loft is a bonus!

In terms of micro apartments, this is a mansion! The rent is insanely good and I've never seen you bring so much furniture into the planning! *lol* I loved this, even if the loft space is basically just an extra. Here one can actually live instead of survive.

I really like this one. The kitchen is separated from the living room which is really good. Decent size bathroom/toilet and the living room being big enough to set up a sofa bed plus a working table and then there's the loft. I would just replace the ladder with those wooden crates that act as storage and stairs at the same time, way better. The big plus is having your own balcony. This one's definitely a really good apartment.

If the rent is within your budget I think this is PERFECT ! I love that it's more than a micro apartment, it actually has space and has been thoughtfully designed to a high standard...it ticks all your boxes and a big plus that the stair ladder to the loft didn't scare you...if you were looking at some of the other micro apartments, they had nowhere else to sleep except to have a loft style bedframe with perhaps your desk underneath, or a futon on the floor...this apartment has actual ROOMS ! 😁 I feel like I could live there myself, balcony, sunny room, space for plants, no toilet/shower in view from the front door, (or next to the kitchen) extra furniture and even toilet paper storage 😄 THIS IS THE ONE ! 😄 ...I'm not shouting, just excited 😃😎 lol Suzy 🇬🇧😊

I like this one, very bright. I think the shoe storage is also more toilet paper storage 😅 and the price is not bad

Honestly this is really doable. The loft space is decent size with enough head room you can sleep or use that space for something else. Living area is a good size and I like how there is a door separating the kitchen area from the living room. If I lived in Japan I could see myself in this apartment 😊

Love this apartment❤❤❤ not only it's larger than the others, living space is separate too. Bathtub, shower, sun shining through the large sliding door instantly lifts the mood. Nice video Usui-san❤❤❤

This is quite spacious, much better value for money. It is a better space for living in rather than just being a space to sleep in. I like this one.

At this point for me, deciding on this apartment would just come down to its location - I don't have any complaints about this "macro" apartment😛. Very spacious, nice balcony, and nice price

It is the best appartment you've visited so far. For the price, the location, the space and everything, you have to take it! To me, you finally find the best appartment you could find 🎉

Шикарная квартира за такие деньги.Почти полноценное жильё,без необходимости тереться об стены.Лучше всяких десятиметровых коробков спичек.Однозначно отличный вариант!!!!!

This one is the very best and at a good price! First of all the lay out, the storage, the ability to add refrigerator, the separate rooms, toilet paper storage 🎉🎉🎉 there could be a tension rod above the washing machine to hang clothing to dry. I would not use the large shelving unit in the apt, Rather, purchase a wardrobe to store all my clothing, extra linens, Spiderman things? 🕸🕸🕸 That way it would blend seamlessly with the wall not exposing anything inside. I LOVE your idea of the loft as a media room. More plants in the balcony would be wonderful. Also, love the privacy yet sunshine that window and balcony will bring! PLEASE GET THIS ONE!!!!!!

This look great, not micro but very balanced spaces, sunny room and not that expensive for the layout and location

As an apartment this is the best so far, by a long chalk 👍

It's perfect for you, Usui! Not too big, not too small.

他の家の中でも、ここが一番いい。

Only two changes I would make: -The kitchen should have a microwave mounted under the upper cabinets. For an apartment with a kitchen that small and difficult to cook in, there's no reason not to have a small microwave included (and mounted out of the way so it doesn't take up counter space) to make meal prep easier. -The loft could have been extended about another two feet (60cm for non-Americans) without impacting the living area at all. For an apartment this small, that's just a waste of potentially usable space. Aside from that, for $540 USD a month I would absolutely live here

The matter of a microwave is an easy problem to solve. Very often in small apartments in Japan, the refrigerator is a smaller size and there will be space for a microwave on top of it.

this one is great, more options to work with

I like it. I don't even mind the ladder, even though there is space to put a tiny home staircase, which can still have space for storage or a desk ... I would live here ... 😊

Usui este apartamento me gusta, tiene una distribución muy conveniente. Los otros micro apartamentos me dan claustrofobia la verdad! Suerte!!!!

This is a well thought out apartment. I like where you proposed to put furniture and TV lounge. Pleasantly surprised by the rent. You could be happy there - and the bonus - toilet paper storage 😊!

This one is really nice , with the little balcon , means you can leave the window open on nice day . The bathroom is really nice and each furniture would find its place. Not so expensive and place for you and Mr Spiderman. Take care both of you.

This is bigger than me and my partner's first apartment in downtown Seattle, with or without the loft! I'd use the loft for storage and where guests could sleep and our bed would be right next to the window so a desk could be right next to the door. If there was a TV mount that could be pulled down, I'd put it on the wall to the loft, but it'd more.likely get put on the wall next to the ladder.

Out of all the places that you have previewed, I like this one the most! The space is amazing. Even if you would not use the loft as a bedroom, you could use it for storage or a movie room if needed. I even thought the rent was reasonable.

Big space🙂 Kitchen🙂 Bathroom🙂 Loft🙂 Laundry🙂 Shoe storage🙂 🎉🧻🧻🧻🧻🎉 Very nice place. I love the soft color wall. There is a place for all furniture.

I really like this one. A door for the toilet and paper storage, a door you can't see through for the bath/shower. Plenty of storage, loft would be storage for me with the bed on the main floor. TV in the loft if you want to climb that ladder (which is not as steep an angle as some you have looked at). The price is comparable to the space. It comes down to location, is it convenient for you? Take care of yourself and enjoy life.

If the location works, this one is good! Extra shelves in the show closet can store food, extra seasonal clothing, cleaning supplies, and other everyday clutter. Space in front of the washer for a hamper. Small role away storage if needed. The loft ladder has a better, sturdy angle, so sleeping up there would be doable. I would go with the bed on the bottom floor, because I get up allot at night, LOL. The table cannot go under the ladder. Plenty of room at ens of bed facing wall or balcony with room to spare for the plant. Loft is good for TV/gaming/reading nook. And it has a separate sink for hygiene!

This apartment is amazing! I'd move in myself. It has everything you could ask for. It's sunny, spacious, has a lot of storage and even a tub and balcony. If you don't want to use the loft daily because of the height, you could put your bed on the main floor and still have a lot of space! Guests can come over and it wouldn't be cramped. The rent is not nearly as high as I thought. We've seen way worse apartments for the same price. If I were you I'd take this apartment, I don't think it gets better than this.

If you don't take this one, it will mean that you never searched for a nicer appartment in fact 🙃. Things that could have been done better : - putting the basin in the same space as the bathtub. It would have left space for a closet. - there could be more shelves above the refrigator space. - the loft space could have been a little larger - a built-in staircase with storage and a desk instead of the ladder. But this is laready very good for what seems to be a decent price.

Yeah, splitting the bathroom across three corners of the room doesn't make much sense to me. It would be better if the vanity/basin and the laundry areas were swapped around so that the bathroom sink would be on the same side as the toilet and bath.

I smiled at the toilet paper storage. I agree, I'd want to put most things on the main floor and just use the loft for hobbies and entertainment. I can't imagine sleeping up there and having to come down half asleep in the middle of the night. I like the layout, that it has a tub and even a little prep space on the kitchen counter between the sink and the cook top. Somewhere you can chop vegetables. I really like this one, and the price is the same as others that are smaller.

I can't believe how affordable it is! I like that wallpaper, a tub is a real selling point - with the toilet even totally seperate, a balcony... You could even consider a couple in this apartment. I would put the bed up in the loft and use the main room as the living room.

I think this is perfect and your journey should not continue. It gives you space for everything you need and for a good price.

This is the best one so far! Sunny room, good layout and toilet paper storage 🎉

Eu gostei dele! Já vimos micro apartamentos com esse valor entre seus vídeos, então mesmo sendo o dobro do que você paga no atual, esse é um achado em comparação ao que oferece! Tem espaço de armazenamento suficiente e parece que houve um planejamento no mobiliário, não tendo nada absurdo como banheiro sem paredes ou cantos minúsculos. Eu colocaria a mesa no local que colocou a panta e teria uma mesinha portátil para trabalhar na varanda também. Seria interessante um vídeo com seus critérios para decisão, como valor máximo, tamanho mínimo, localização de preferência e tudo mais, pois só sabemos que você precisa de espaço para guardar o papel higiênico. E sim, eu comemoro junto quando tem local para ele, fico sempre na expectativa que tenha 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This one is my favourite so far ❤. The layout is perfect and I would love to live here myself. The zoning of the kitchen and bathroom facilities works very well. I think there would also be room to have a rail over the washing machine to hang things. Good toilet roll storage. Plenty of storage under the ladder and can fit a desk in perfectly. I think though I would have the bed in the loft area, so that I could have a small table and a sofa downstairs. I could image having the doors to the balcony open, sitting on a sofa with a cold drink and enjoying the sun and light.

I really like this apartment! There's plenty of storage space, including room for a large refrigerator. The bathroom and toilet are spacious, and there's even storage for toilet paper! 🥳Having a balcony is definitely a plus! However, that wooden shelf in the room - I believe the space can be used more effectively and practically 🤔 As for the loft - I think your idea of arranging furniture is a great one! I'd also prefer using the loft as a small cinema, with the bed downstairs, so you don't have to climb the ladder so often 😅😵‍💫

Мне кажется это то что мы все ждали🎉 очень хорошая квартира с местом под всё необходимое!

I like this one, the best but not a micro appartment.

I cheered when I saw the toilet paper storage. 😂🎉 I really like this one.

This is the first place I could actually see myself living in. And the rent is not even that high compared to the other places. Is this area so far out or why is it so reasonable?

this apartment is one of the best. you have enough space and it have a balcony and a loft. i think its the perfect apartment. i think your bed will fit in this apartment 😆

I really like this one! Much more space, big window, seems bright an friendly, little Balkony for clothes to dry, even the loft is nice, enough space for your bed. If you dont rent it, I will! 😆 (But no, it is too expensive for me 😒)

this is so good! it is heaps better and bigger than your previous video’s shoe box apartment where the bed can’t even fit properly and has all the necessary to live very comfortably!

I like this one a lot. It’d meet my needs but with your fear of heights I’d think you’d give this one a pass.

Best apartment so far. I like the separation of the kitchen/bathroom/toilet area from the living/bedroom area. Price is good. You got your toilet paper storage area. Lots of storage, lots of space. Also a bonus balcony and loft. Should be considered.

I actually like this one. There is a spot for the refrigerate. You have the pull out drawers for some snacks. You have toilet paper storage too! I like the fact you can get comfortable in the loft and watch tv. This one you can actually fit all of your things. A house plant is a nice touch. I hope you like this one too. 😊

Even if you only have two pairs of shoes, that shoe rack is storage. Bigger kitchen than the one you have. Room for a fridge. Counterspace. Place for a washing machine. I don't like the bathroom sink in the hallway. Decent sized shower. Toilet paper storage. A living room/bedroom/office on the bottom floor with a loft for storage -- I know you don't like heights. :) Or a bed in the loft and a lot of living space below. The ladder isn't in the way of anything. A balcony. Usui, if you don't take the Toy Story apartment, grab this one. It definitely works!

Compared to the other apartments we saw, this is gigantic. Not so much more space but a way better floor plan then most of them. I like this apartment very much and I thought it would be more expencive.

Здравствуйте, Усуи -сан! Каартира классная .Место не мало)

Usui-san, do it! Take this apartment!! I think just about everyone loves this one most of all!

This is the best you have taken me to. I am a mom and feel like you are one of my kids out looking for new place. You will have sun and plenty of room here, and I can sleep at nights knowing you have a nice place at a good price.

It's nice. 😺

Hi Usui! This apartment is much better than the others. Greetings from Spain🌞

Finally a normal space. It's so nice a place.

Usui-San!! This is the one!!! I like this one even better than the Toy Story one, and I really like that one. This one is a palace!

Of all the apartments you have looked at that I have seen, this is the best. I realize it is the most expensive, but not by too much. With the loft, it is almost like a 1 bedroom apartment. And a balcony! If it was me, this is the one I would pick, because there is enough room to be comfortable and not have to be worrying about moving again (for a while). If it were me, I would put my bedroom in the loft, and enjoy a real living room area with a balcony! But what does Spiderman say?

Let there be light! This apartment is so bright. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Really nice apartment! And it is affordable for a city like Tokyo. I also like the idea of putting a TV in the upper part of the apartment. Heat always goes up - so the loft space could be warmer then the place below and for sleeping is a cooler place perfect.

bravo! verry nice! 👏👏👍

This is perfect including the toilet paper storgae! Don't miss it . go for it !!

Gosh, I really like this one - even with the loft! It's spacious enough you can, as you show, use the loft for something less essential than your bed.

I really liked this one! Clearly separated and demarcated spaces, a good organized kitchen/laundry area and a good bathroom area! I wouldn't even need the loft area since it has a good amount of space for the bed and desk. But since it exists, I would use it to store things that I use less on a daily basis. I also liked that you can hang your clothes on the balcony! This is a good one, Usui-san!

Love it! Not that small, has a bathtub, enough space, even a balcony and just a little bit more expensive than your current microapartment, it would be a good idea if you can afford it,

The door between kitchen/entry and the living room makes a huge difference in how large and discrete the space feels (plus, it's just larger than we're used to seeing already).

Surprised that you say your search continues. I guess you want something cheaper or in a different location? Because this is EXCELLENT. It’s odd that the bathroom vanity is in the hall, and has a larger sink than the kitchen. 😂 But that’s more than made up for by the generous storage, ability to have a dedicated spot for both work and movies/TV, and of course the all important TP storage. The price seems eminently worth it for this sunny space. As others have said, it would be even better if you could replace the ladder with a decent storage staircase, with a handrail on the correct side. But this ticks all your boxes as far as I can tell, other than maybe price or location. You can have a spot to grow some herbs on the lovely little balcony! What a great small apartment!

Fascinated by the need to bring your own fridge in so many of these.

Really like this one! Space for a full size fridge! Even if the loft is just for storage, there is still plenty of room for a bed, TV, desk and wardrobe 👌

I like this apartment! You can put the bed, desk, chair, even a sofa if you want! The loft to keep things! A big freezer and you can keep fresh food and cook! 🎉🎉🎉

Oh! I like the idea of touring small apartments on top of the micro apartments. Gives some fun variety ❤

WHOA, what an apartment! It reminds me of some small one-room-apartments in germany. Huge shoe rack, where you can put other stuff as well. Kitchen is small as usual, you showed us "nicer" ones, but it is sufficient. The separate place for the washing machine is... strange, but better than to have it next to the bed. I dont get the sense of a water basin next to the kitchen sink. ^^' Nice bathroom with bathtub. (No window, but not so bad) And toilet paper storage for the toilet, hooray!!! I love the sunny living room and the large window. I LOVE large windows! And I like the wooden floor. The shelf is really nice. A closet/wardrobe with doors would be a bit better, but some other apartments did not have storage at all. The balcony is great for plants. And I love those loft spaces, I know you are afraid of heights. But its nice for having a separate sleeping area, I think. It is a real good, big apartment. There is space for everything - and more 😀 I see the different prices between all the apartments, that you show to us. I dont know, how flexible your budget is. I think, its a bit expensive for ya?

The best appartament for now

This is by far the most suitable apartment for u Usui! Not only that it is spacious and sunny, it is very functional for u too. That ample space for the home theatre loft is a bonus too! I'll definitely go for this

If the commute, and price suit you, this is such a wonderful place. 🏆 It feels welcoming. I like that the view out the balcony doors has such an expanse of blue sky. I like the separate bath & shower. I like that there is ample space for the desk & bed. This is a friendly place.

I have to say that this is one of the nicest and most versatile places. If I had to live in a small place, this is one that could provide enough space and allow the ease of changing things around. Add in a small balcony and this would be a winner.

This one is a close second to the one with the big kitchen bench. I like how you had the bed downstairs and TV in the loft. Good thing about this one is the handbasin near the kitchen so can wash hands and not have to use the sink and rent is cheaper

This small apartment certainly is nicer than all the micro apartments. Great price point as well. The shoe storage near the entrance can be both shoe storage and folded laundry/extra towels, etc.

This apartment is amazing!! Think of all the space you’ll have now. I know you’re not fond of heights but surely this apartment is worth it! I say go for it.

I'm scared of chairs, but this one is safe. I loved this apartment. This is for living. So far my favorite.

This is a good one! If you need to sleep "on the ground floor" I would recommend a folding couch/bed, but maybe you can adjust to this loft? The movie theatre is a good idea! It is not such high and maybe you are allowed to put a curtain up there, so you don't see how much up you are? This apartement is well designed with a good use of the space and feels more like an apartment because of the sperated areas. It has good storage space, you could use the shoe rack also as storage for other things. And it is bright and has a balcony! I would like to live there.

This apartment is a winner. Two rooms,balcony and toilet paper storage. Put bed below loft.😊

Just a lovely layout and so much space and storage - lots of potential in this 1-bedroom/loft apartment 🙂!!

Best apartment yet! The extra space is so nice. I know you live a very minimalistic life, but it might not be the worst thing to upgrade to a small apartment. Although, I have to say you have only showed clean, relatively new apartments. I did find other youtube videos showing very cheap micro apartments in Tokyo that were old, with poor upkeep, even with a shared toilet and no shower nor bath. I wasn’t expecting that.
