japan life vlog 🎐 work, summer festival in tokyo, ghibli concert + visiting pokemon city 🎮

Spend a super Japan summer and anime-packed weekend with me here in Tokyo!!
It really does not get more summer in the city here than this guys 😂 Join me today as we go to a bon odori festival here in Tokyo and then go down to Yokohama to see a Ghibli concert and check out the insane amount of Pokemon decorations they have up!! It's definitely a must-see if you happen to be visiting right now and love Pokemon, it should be up until late August I think!
Alright, going back to reading and playing Baldur's Gate 3...

    This is one of my first vlogs by you, so everyday items kitchen and make-up things are interesting. After looking at Balmuda toaster ovens from Europe that tiny dishwasher was intriguing. I think I may have watched your compilation of things to help you through hot summer? Even if that were by someone else, I have ordered a UP protection umbrella since. So specific summer make-up is also interesting. As were all your outings, and your plushies at home, including new plushie shower hat 😀 tfs

    I know it may be a hot technique for summer but for someone I saw who was a prof makeup artist they tried the wet based makeup then powered then came back with dry makeup over top that matched and it worked well that may be a way to have more vibrancy and not so much sweat off if you use a dry on top of an encased wet makeup as long as your in a more aired area or fall/winter even

    I was lucky enough to be able to stay in Japan for a year from June last year to May this year and I'll always be sad that I couldn't experience any of the summer festivals due to the pandemic :(. Perhaps the reality would have been me just complaining about the hot and humid weather while at a festival instead of somewhere else but at least I would have experienced it!

    Nice vlog again and that festival in Ebisu looked really fun 🤩. Maybe I can participate in that sometimes too. I’m considering going to language school in Tokyo in summer. However I’m not sure if that is a good idea since most people recommend not to come during that time because it’s too hot. I saw your videos from last week and it gave me some thoughts. I’d love to enjoy those summer festival one day. So I thought planing my language school trip during that time might be a good idea because at day I’d go to language school and study (hopefully mostly in rooms with ac) and in the evenings I could go to see some festivals. But as you can see I’m not quite sure. So maybe you could give me your opinion on that plan? As someone who lives there and has a lot of experience with the Japanese seasons: would you go to language school in summer to see a lot of summer festivals? Or would you rather say it’s not worth it and better go another time?
