In the morning, as Tae-Hun wanted to go to Ihebukuro together. I woke him up. He is kind of lazy person and likes to speak out swear words. But, as he is honest in that way, I could pretty much read his mind well. We got out the room and headed to the Shinjuku station as I had a jr pass so I don't have to pay the train fee. Since this is morning time we were going to having breakfast first. With reasonable price I don't remember the name but was rice on the bottom of the bowl and fried pork on the top. was good. Oishi! After finishing breakfast, took the train to go to Ikebukuro. I knew that the place is for otaku but had no clue and this guy had something to do with himself because of the trouble with his girlfriend. So I had to look around by myself. Went to the Metropolitan Theater first. Inside of the building has high ceiling and has three floors. There were a gallery exhibition on the third floor but as I saw people had the ticket I didn't try to enter. Took some pictures and went out.

I wanted to know why this place is for otaku so I was looking around and searched a bit about this place on my iphone. It said this place is famous for bic camera, anime building and etc. I didn't care about big camera as they have electronic stuff. So, headed to anime building. Actually this area is for women otaku though. Anyway, I entered a otaku building it had total 9? floors. Went up to the top and looked around from the top floor. In my perspective, I it was kind of hard to do what I like as I was born in that way and rose that way. After spending some time in overseas quite a long time, now I am a having a hard time because of that anyway, was really cool, they seem so confessed that they are otaku and didn't care about others sight but themselves. I suppose they wouldn't say to others that they are otaku though. I know that because of the last night's experience, I told the person next to me on the train that I am otaku. And every one laughed about it.. You got me right?! Just like that. I entered two buildings for the anime and got impressed. They have everything that you can imagine. The selling prices are kind of expensive too! I mean some of them. Like 45,000 yen something for a card. Cool! So kind of figuring out about Akihabara too. But anyway I went there and looked around and on the couchsurfing app, I met one guy who was from Poland and do photographing, met him in front of a Mc Donald near the station. And looking around. He showed me some of his pictures and was all black and white, kind of cool pictures. But as I had a meeting later today had to go so he and I said good bye each other and headed to the next stop.

It was today's last destination and took some pictures but I didn't get to the tower it was just near the tower. After taking pictures I tried to get to the Akabanebashi station but didn't know how to get there so I asked one random person for the direction. He said it takes me 15 min to get there so I went back to the Kamiyacho station to came back home. At the time I supposed to meet Hue but was going to be a bit late so I texted her that I would be late. Also my iphone was going to die.. we arranged to meet in a Starbucks but as I phone died I couldn't get there so had to come back home to recharge my battery and sent her a message that I am sorry. But she didn't mind at all, actually she was studying there. So I went out to meet her. She is nice person as a Vietnamese we talked a bit after that she said she were going to meet someone and asked me to come together. 

We met him at the Shinjuku station and hung out a bit there. Before met him I went to a subway to grab some food though. He wanted to take some picture at near a park but was closed at the time. As his work place is Shibuya we decided to go there and hanging out there. We took some pictures there and he guided us. After looking around, we went to a bar to grab some wine and had fun there. But later on I had to go back home to send a message to the Korean guy that I was late. So, we said good bye each other and I came home to send him a message. It was late to send him message. Kind of bad day to me.

Now there are two new people in the hostel. One of them loves traveling. So we shared things and I got lots of information from him.
