Things you don't know about this video: the video was already SO LONG I had to cut out a few things; like when we went to see a classic traditional Kabuki play (so traditional and old-fashion only MEN can be actors WOW no women allowed on the stage). We thought the show was on Saturday but when we got there our tickets were for Friday. We were so saaaad. The woman at the ticket office realized our silly tourist mistake, she gave us tickets for the Saturday ToT I couldn't stop crying, she was so kind and we were so grateful. The play was crazy, we didn't understand a word but visually it was breathtaking! Filming and picture-taking was not allowed, but I wish you guys could've seen it!

    Thank you so much for sharing your experience in such a kind and realistic way. You're SO SWEET I can't stress it enough. And I wish you both guys to be healthy af and have a most wonderful year ♥️ Ps: comic about anxious cat looks great. Pps: I was sad to know that the one can't look at the manga pages before buying it. I planned to buy whatever cute I see in Japan and how should I decide if I can only see the cover?(( Pps: both new glasses look really cool on you! I agree that lighter glasses may work better with pink hair, can't wait to see you all pink 😊

I watch them anytime especially when I feel down because you always put a smile on my face.💜 Can't wait to see your hair when you make it pink! Right now mine is a blood red but I've been wanting to make it somewhere between dusty rose and a Princess Pubblegum pink for a while now❤️

Second, I like that you show your acne because I have acne spots too and a lot of times I just can’t be bothered about putting on a full face of makeup even though I can get a little insecure in front of the camera or mirror so when you show yours it helps me feel more confident about my own.

I went to Japan for the first time last summer and also went to Itoya, the second time I went to the store I found the other Itoya on the back with even more paints, pens and stationary! I don't know if I ever will be back to Japan, but if I do I will definitely go to Kamakura and Koenji!

The anxiety kitty comic you bought reminds me of a book I bought in Tokyo that's similar about a mischievous shiba, it's so cute. It has some words in it so I thought it would help me with studying Japanese. I can't really read it yet but I have high hopes! 😊 I miss Japan so much, hopefully I can get back to visit some day soon.
