I didn’t realize the power that 42 seconds could wield over my deep desire to travel to Tokyo. Awesome little video. Please someone send me over there. I will generate all manner of design/art/illustration if you just put me in a hotel for a week and let me go crazy in that city.

I totally agree. I’ve always wanted to go there!

Dude you must go!
There is no other place I’ve been to in the world that has moved me and inspired me as much as tokyo has, or the whole of Japan for that matter.

While I agree that Japan must be an awesome place to visit, I think that video makes me rather feel uneasy.

My brother is currently over there. Worked in a ski resort from December until March, and is now in Tokyo. Loves it so much and now wants to live over there teaching English! If he stays to July that means I get a free trip out there to see him for his 21st! It’d be amazing!
I suggest this video, you may’ve seen it, but it’s my favourite japan-related movie. The music suits it perfectly.
