EXPLORING JAPANS BIGGEST BOOKSTORE | Bookstore Vlog!

[@kaylahdavisofficial]

*9 freaking floors?!* I'M PACKING MY BAGS AND GOING TO JAPAN

[@abookutopia]

KayLoves Gaming I know right?!

[@courtanimation311]

Same!!

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

You're lucky you can read Japanese. I'm so envious.

[@Sofia-kx3em]

“We’re lost. But it’s okay cause we’re usually lost when we go out.” Literally me every time I go on Holiday.

[@aaaaaaaaaat14]

I think Hailey already owns that edition of alice😂

[@1313AnimeFan]

They do have chain bookstores! Kinokuniya, Book Off and Tsutaya Books

[@musicandloveismylive]

There is even a Kinokuniya in Sydney!

[@takeusaway3]

Also Junkudo and Maruzen

[@rejoyy]

There's one in Dubai too in the Dubai Mall. Next to the tallest building in the world. My favorite bookshop so far. It's huge but I want to visit the one in Japan the most

[@zainabbunyamin7403]

It's weird when he said there's no well known chain. He didn't know Kinokuniya?

[@BasicallyBrittx]

That's so interesting seeing the inside of a Japanese book. Literally the complete opposite of how we read! Those Japanese covers are SO cool though!

[@shikhasaha8166]

True!!!! Though I can't read Japanese but i would still like to have them on my bookshelf 😄😄. Guilty pleasure 😅

[@rayne4898]

9 FLOORS??!?!!!! I'm sooo going there and buying everthing!!! But I have to win the lottery first because I don't have that much money..😂

[@amandareadsss4128]

omg that bookstore is MAGICAL 😍😍 I could spend hours in there. Days maybe 😂 Hello from a small booktuber- I adore your channel so much💕

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

Oh another person who reads Japanese. I am so envious. I wanted so much to enjoy browsing in bookstores there but the English language sections in Japanese bookstores are tiny.

[@smolace77]

Me: *sees books, drools* Also me: *I gotta CATCH ‘EM ALL* Me again: *looks at empty kitty bank* I’m freakin’ broke, but do I care? HEL NAW, my BOOKS ARE CALLING!

[@abookutopia]

BookNerd FireCat YASSSS

[@smolace77]

No matter how broke you are, the books don’t judge, they listen. :’)

[@smolace77]

abookutopia Oh, and Happy Earth Day, Sasha!

[@cassandrapaul2381]

That was really cool to watch. Thank for sharing that. Wish I could go there someday.

[@jesssnellx]

GCSEs start in three weeks so I've had to put my pleasurable reading on hold to Re-read required texts 😩 Thanks for making my day a little better Sasha xx *Edit* : Screw it. It's been two days and I can't bear it anymore... Oh precious books here I come 😅😅

[@stacymartin8128]

Jess omg same. Cannot relate enough. Im stuck analysing set reads for the third or fourth time instead of reading something I actually like for the first time. GCSEs bloody suck. A stressful period with much needed Sasha content.

[@jesssnellx]

@@stacymartin8128 I've given up so stay strong for the both of us 😅 I've decided my happiness is more important than what Sheila Birling think of Eva Smith

[@stacymartin8128]

Jess omgg An Inspector Calls! I wish we got to study that text instead of The Woman in Black. I personally find An Inspector Calls to be super interesting (the movie too what with my Remus Lupin as our main man Goole) but, then again, overanalysing can kill just about any literature. I will attempt to stay strong but I’m beginning to waver.

[@PewPew3333]

Did they also have manga in english there?

[@thatone7793]

I had that Bible stories book as a kid! Seen at about 4:40. Out of all the books, there's that not entirely popular children's Bible in Japan? So strange. Either way, I would love to visit this place. Nine floors?!? Yes please!

[@kevinkelly_]

Omg that Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan Anime style editions are EVERYTHING!!!!! Omg 😱😱😱

[@kennyreads]

You make me want to visit Japan so badly!! Need to explore more of the world!

[@monferno71]

In Japan they actually have this big used bookstore chain called Book Off

[@TheBooktubeGirl]

This looks amazing! You’ve definitely ignited my wanderlust... I MUST GO!!

[@adrianneong2159]

I think that bookstore is a big chain. They have Junkudo, too, at where I used to live in Japan. It has 6 floors and the English section is at the 5th floor :) I bought most of my books there. Just sharing my knowledge and opinion. Have fun in Japan!!!

[@ramtinheraklion2856]

You have read Persian books

[@DerekMurphycreativindie]

Cool, I’m heading to Japan next week

[@amalk1986ify]

Wouahh I didn't have the chance to visit a bookshop when I went to Tokyo a couple of years ago. But I definetly will see that one if I've the opportunity to going back 😀!

[@skyliegough7294]

Such a fun video!!! I’m so happy to see videos from you again! Can we expect more bookish videos from you in the future? 💕💕💕

[@abookutopia]

SkyeAngelBooks Burgess oh yes!

[@skyliegough7294]

Yay can’t wait you are the reason I started my own BookTube channel

[@holy_marijuana]

​@@skyliegough7294she lied openly

[@xiomysbooktales6279]

That bookstore looked so interesting I would have checked to see if Six of Crows was translated and purchased that edition! 😄

[@valeriesbookish1092]

Absolutely love this vlog 😍

[@YourMom-bu7yo]

I haven’t watched your channel in so long and I decided to check your channel out again. I picked this not knowing Taran was in this video. I literally started to fan-girl when I saw him because I’m currently on the second book of the novice series and don’t find it that similar to Pokémon, I think it’s a cross between all kinds of books but it’s also very unique

[@tanahirata4113]

I think Kinokuniya is a huge book store in Japan. ( That's the one I grew up going there so haha) I am so glad that you had a good time in Japan :) I love all your video

[@jessicaschramm5142]

Wow it’s so amazing you got to go to Japan and experience such an awesome, unique culture. I can’t wait until I can explore other countries too! I actually own that gorgeous copy of Alice in wonderland. I absolutely loved reading it

[@incursionbob7551]

Taran mathur be like Kyu pka rhi hae yaar 😂😂😂😂

[@cxberfoxx]

the Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan books are also in America, they weren't made that way specifically for Japan. I saw them today at barnes and noble

[@readsandeats2263]

Fun video. H.ope you are having a great time in Japan

[@fromsophiewithlovex]

This is so good! Love you Sasha😍

[@abookutopia]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@chroniclesoftae1280]

So cool! I love those Japanese versions of classic books! 😍

[@linguaste]

You didn't actually mention the name of the bookstore or did I miss it?

[@WhitneyChakara]

I didn't hear you mention where in Japan it is. Tokyo? Or...

[@StarsAndEmbers]

Those Japanese versions of the classics look so cool!

[@LeahRummel]

All the different covers are so interesting haha

[@cindyschroer9233]

3:54 Suddenly it became a ASMR video of Sasha whispering xD

[@kywhal3]

Omg STOP you came to japan?????? I’m from japan and I used to be such an avid watcher of your channel(until I got super busy with school and slowly drifted away from booktube😭) Also I’ve actually never been to that bookstore before! I often just stop by kinokuniya whenever I have the chance. I’m definitely gonna have to visit the next time I’m in central tokyo!!

[@louisity]

I wish bookstores in the Philippines will be as big as these one day. Some big branches downsized. 😢

[@a.k.a.e.5509]

louisity true!

[@kandklove1]

That looked like so much fun and interesting pretty cool you weer able to travel with a author and cbeck out there book stores

[@musicandloveismylive]

[@aurooora808]

[@ZeeZeeDreaming]

Lovely video!

[@nicolebelen2407]

I actually think that they do have a chain bookstore called Kinokuniya, I might be wrong and it might not be 😂

[@MaryAmongStories]

i wanna go there so much!

[@prandabir6909]

"I forgot to end the video" I laughed out loud

[@Mwoods2272]

You should have gone to the Jimbocho area. There are probably 30 bookstores there.

[@foreversavedbygrace]

2:17 what he heck is that space agey car in the background??

[@mybirthwrite]

Me: can only think about finding Japanese versions of Neil Gaiman books

[@JulEnglefaris]

Catch me sprinting up and down floors to find the specific book I'm looking for 😅

[@tiffanymccall5338]

Whoa 😍😍 that bookstore is amazing

[@eglelt219]

My first thought: "It's gonna be HUGE."

[@mackenziej4]

[@sweetmusicwoman984]

[@ladywinchester2673]

[@JulEnglefaris]

I dont think that copy of The Alchemist was the one by Paulo Coelho. It was the one by Michael Scott 😅

[@redrose4401]

I have that Alice in Wonderland book!! I love the story ❤

[@marugomez142]

[@Minako-u2o]

Why go to a bookstore in Japan and look for English books?

[@Jona_8013]

My dear, you are visiting a Japanese bookstore but you are into a YA books. You should try reading Haruki Murakami.

[@AA-ux6gg]

Japanese version harry potter

[@MukeshPandey-oq7th]

Show less of your face and more of the bookstore please!!! This generation is so freaking self absorbed!!
