Iori must be the most popular butler in this cafe. Every time I see a video of this specific Cafe, it's Iori who is on screen. Or maybe he is the most confident to be in a video like this. Either way, he is amazing, and I love his creative answers and roleplay ~

I would love to visit a Butler Cafe; the atmosphere looks truly imnersive. Maid cafes are a bit too... extravagent for my preferences. Iori's roleplaying is of a high caliber. I can scarcely imagine all the experiens he, and his peers, have gone through to attain such mastery of their craft.

Oh wow, i haven’t been to Japan since 2005, and didn’t realize how much they ramped up the anime presence in Ikebukuro. I even stayed a week in a hotel there, but it was mainly known as an office type area at the time and a bit more staid. Even Sunrise City was a bit sparse for anime fans. Would love to visit Ikebukuro again to see how much it has changed in 2 decades!

It has changed a lot! And yes, there is anime place at every corner nowadays!

Great job asking the staff questions! A simple yet profound boost to the production quality. I'm a massive fan of afternoon tea by the way and live in London where some of them get extremely pricey. I'd say the only adjustment I'd make with what was shown in the video is just to have normal English tea with the food. There's nothing quite like a cup of tea with scones. Some of the tea places in London give you unlimited everything!!

Aaahh I’ve always wanted to visit this butler cafe ever since I saw this location featured in a Japanese romcom movie. But the reservation process looks too complicated for my small brain 🥲

I can only imagine the course the butlers must go through to refine their keigo. Understanding is one thing and konbini keigo is no problem. But there are levels haha. 何よりも素敵と言うならしずかさんのドレスのほう見事でしたよ！

With afternoon tea, the one that's eaten first is the one at the bottom..then you make your way up. I'd say the butler cafe Shizuka visited is even better than some of the afternoon tea places I've had in London since they don't usually call their customers "your majesty" or "m'lady." I need that Pikachu clock though. I can't seem to find it on Google so I may have to return to Japan.😅

I've had afternoon tea at both ends of the spectrum in London. The casual ones like family owned shops or perhaps just small establishments in parks. However Fortnam and Mason was exquisite! The service is great and all the food and drink is eat as much as you like. Cakes too outside of the tea set are included. At the end of it all the sugar overload was too much 😂😂.

Happy to hear about Lashinban (it's Japanese for _compass_ , by the way) for once. Probably one of my favorite secondhand anime goods shops. You won't find a bargain there like in the more maniac stores like Mandarake, but they are almost everywhere you can find an Animate, and those in turn are everywhere around Japan, and they won't rip you off on the cheap prize figures like a lot of the stores targeting tourists in the "otaku" areas will. I still want them to release a figure of their mascot, though.

Love it!’

Very true!

There were a couple of anime characters that recreated and/or reorganized the structure of my brain. When I saw Totoro the first time, I was like, "... what the heck is going to happen here?" Then when the catbus showed up, my hair stood up and my mind was officially blown. There was also a radish in Spirited Away named Oshira-sama that I can't stop thinking about because I had a dream about a white radish like that. So totally random and not related to your fun time in the video.. ha ha. But some of those characters go deep into the soul for some of us, for whatever reason.

Some guys asked me why butlers cafés? The rococo decor along with french style pastries and chandeliers are related to a classic shoujo manga/anime series of enormous sucess called The Rose of Versailles. This anime featured a captivating romantic hero named André, who was the devoted butler/bodyguard to his Lady Oscar, a noblewoman raised as a man during the French Revolution. This story originated that enduring romantic fantasy since the 1970's, where butlers became idealized princes charmings in Japan.

Thanks Japan By Food for another fantastic episode ! I never knew there are Butler Cafes in Japan only heard of the Maid ones. Fav anime I have to say Demon Slayer . I wonder what is Shizuka's fav ? 🤔 Cheers .

I probably would go for a Butler Cafe even if i am a man, because i found the Maid ones a little too... well, cheesy and otaku oriented. Meanwhile the Butlers they looks and behave like gentlemen, and i would love to be among real gentlemen. At least just once. But im thankful that the Maid cafe exist because once a great artist worked here and had the bizzare idea to make a rockband dressed like maids. Viva Miku, Viva *BAND-MAID* !! Greatest rock band in the world.

The dress was a pleasant change to the jeans. Please try linen trousers in the future 🤣
