Actually if you go in the first week of January the nearby Togaku-ji temple is the the start (or end) of the Yanaka Shichifukujin meguri (course to visit 7 temples dedicated to the 7 gods of luck). The only other thing I know is that there a scene in the anime movie Weathering With You that take place close to Tabata station.

Not sure what her criteria is for Sharizard, but it's all things she created intentionally, so it wasn't chris's pun but rather a statement about her not having reached her next threshold yet.

I know this video broke you my friend, BUT I feel this is probably one of the BEST and MOST INFORMATIVE Tokyo-based videos you've done to date sir!!! I just LANDED back home from a 10-day trip in Tokyo and my wife and I can attest that the Yamanote Line was our best friend throughout the trip as we stayed only 8-mins away from Ueno station. Honestly after seeing this, we wish we saw this video BEFORE we left, so we could experience the "off-beaten" locations like the cemetary and the cat-town!! But its okay it just leaves us wanting to do more next trip. We love exploring Tokyo AS CLOSE to the train stations as possible for ease of navigation. This video was BRILLIANT as well as unique.
