Suginami Animation Museum & Monster Cafe

Very cool museum about 45 minutes from anything else, which was kind of a pain. But it was worth it, there were a lot of great exhibits about how to make anime including some hands-on equipment.

Chris and I both found shows featured in the exhibits we watched after school in the late 70's/early 80's that were Japanese anime. Chris identified that Battle of the Planets = Gatchaman and I figured out the Star Blazers = Battleship Yamato I, II & III. And of course Speed Racer is anime from the same period.

We took the train back into the center of town to try Monster Cafe in Harajuku. So very Japanese.Leia mais
