EVACOMICS BLOG

Unlike your typical kimono shoots, Studio Nanairo at Asakusa provides glamorous transformation into maiko or oiran (courtesan) in a studio environment or you can pay extra for street shots! *Disclaimer: This was a self-funded trip to provide non-bias review of experiences for my blog and/or new comic book. I do not get any money in return for recommendations.

I'm working on my 4th book now and one of the chapters is about Cosplay in Japan. So I decided to pay for my own trip and packages (special thanks to my fans at Patreon too) to write and draw an unbiased review about each experience. I never cosplayed before so I was enthusiastic about the "Perfect Anime Costume" package, which cost 15,000yen or around US$140.

For my foreign fans: ERP means Electronic Road Price, which is a gantry that our government installs to deduct fees for entering certain roads to reduce congestion at certain town areas. MRT is our subway system, and it breaks down often. Honestly do you buy those fancy Halloween candies or chocolates for yourself or give away? :P

Although sometimes the waiter/waitress will recommend their signature dish... Is there anybody out there who had never asked this question before?

I do feel like a hamster storing extra food that I don't need, because just in case... I booked ANA instead of Singapore Airline this time for my trip to Japan because of the extra checked in luggage allowance, hope I don't blow it this time!

In Southeast Asia, you will get tanned due to the strong sun. In Japan, you will be tempted to buy a lot of things back. In Korea, you do not need to put on make-up when you leave the hotel because you can just go into any cosmetic shop to try the products and they will put it on for you for free~

Not sure if the body works like a cloth filled with fats, I could twist these out of the body for a slimmer waist!
