Nakano Broadway! Anime, Disney and Video Games Merchandise in Tokyo! TOKYO #4 | thisNatasha

Welcome to one of Tokyo’s BEST places to buy Anime, Manga, Disney, Video Game and other Otaku merchandise! This is Nagano Broadway, which is famous for the first Mandarake store selling Manga and merchandise which quickly spread out so much that it attracted other otaku stores turning the Nakano Broadway shopping mall into a geek paradise! We’re doing an updated version of the 2017 vlog today, going to our favourite stores (Mandarake, Robot + Robot, Omocha no Pony) and a few new ones in search for some cute Disney things, some game cards, a video game or two and loads of Kingdom Hearts merch! Thanks so much for watching!

Nice video. For your viewers, most of the anime/manga stores don't open till noon. Also go to the basement before you leave, there is a Seiyu supermarket, fish markets, a Daiso, veggie stores, food stalls and drug stores for picking up groceries or snacks or just to see where the locals shop.

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks so much for the tips Maurice!!! :D

[@ionelovegood]

Watched this just in time before we fly to Japan in October. Thank you so much!

[@medusaspupil]

That 80s synth music is a great touch 👍 808

[@VloggingLeFaye]

We spent hours wondering round stores like these. Brings back memories. Thank you for sharing!

[@jeromepadilla8055]

Japan is my dream country to visit. Thank you for sharing your experienced.

[@japanesesmiles8515]

Lovely bread! Cute! 😊🇯🇵🌸

[@thisNatasha]

Thank-you!!!

[@tianastv]

This channel is such a great help!! I’m going to Japan in 2022 it’s really good guide

[@niapop]

This series just makes me want to book flights to Tokyo right away. Super informative and fun as ever. Did you buy the hanafuda set in the end? It’s such a fun alternative to rummy or hearts once a few people learn the rules. I also love that Stephen is an Utena fan.

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks so much Nia! I'm so sad that I didn't get the Hanafuda set - I watched the footage and was like "what was I thinking not buying it!". I'll have to get it next time!!! And oh yeah Stephen loves Utena, we went to Japan for the exhibit one year!

[@trevorrandom]

Love your channel it's my daily fix of all things Japanese ☺ ♥ 🇯🇵

[@thisNatasha]

MY GOODNESS TREVOR! That was fast!!! Thanks for all the support as always!!! :D

[@trevorrandom]

@@thisNatasha thank you I really love what you do where is the link to your other Nakano video BTW ☺

[@trevorrandom]

@@thisNatasha thanks again ☺

[@scottbarbour9745]

Your videos are always great Natasha, especially any Japan series with Steven or Liam. We actually ran into Steven a few weeks ago at Animal Kingdom and said hi! What a treat and surprise to see him! 😁

[@thisNatasha]

Oh YAY that was you!!! I wondered who it was! Thanks so much for saying hi! He was in wdw with our mum for a week, seems like they had a fab time! Mum thought he was some kind of celebrity after you said hi - so funny!!! Thanks again for that! And for the lovely comment!!!

[@scottbarbour9745]

thisNatasha 😁

[@andreajoki9758]

That previous video a year ago was so helpful when we went - we would never have found Nakano Broadway without it. Big thanks!

[@thisNatasha]

You're welcome!!! Thanks so much for the comment Andrea! :D

[@LuluVl15]

I swear I'll be leaving Japan with all the things lol I can't wait to explore Nakano.. amazing video as always.. you've become my Japan encyclopedia. I think I watch every video at least 3 times lol

[@thisNatasha]

Ha ha!!! Well then I owe you a lot of thanks!!! THANK-YOU!!! :D

[@ark1978]

When you said "progressing well" I was half expecting to see a shot of Steve struggling to weave his way through the stores due to all of the purchases. 😂

[@thisNatasha]

Ha ha! That’s why we bring the big backpacks!!! 🤣

[@Ilikeoatmealmorethanyou]

this was such a great vlog!! i can't wait to check out your other japan vlogs :D

[@ellenscarsellone1358]

I am going to Japan next month. It is my first trip there, and your videos have been helpful with my planning

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks Ellen! I’m glad the videos are helpful!!! :D

[@antonyjackson2324]

You were my bible for my trip in May and keep these coming as need more for my next trip please !! :-)

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks so much Antony!!! :D

[@brettu5052]

Great video. This place is on my list to visit when I go back next year.

[@ayoldguy1]

Nice video! I was in that very bakery a couple of months ago on my trip to Tokyo, was amazing. Love your videos!

[@thisNatasha]

Oh awesome! It's a great little bakery - so glad we found it! :D

[@LadyAnyaRose]

As a collector of all things Disney, (I even have a Disney tattoo!) this is heaven.

[@thisNatasha]

Ha ha!!! You should definitely go to Nakano then - but bring lots of money!!!

[@EllenPenelo]

I have to say my favourite floor is probably the 4th floor! It has Mandarake Plastic which specialises in more magical girl goods, 70s, 80s, 90s toys (Polly Pockets, My Little Pony, Keypers etc), plus there are a few lovely vintage and handmade stores up there too :) and my favourite entrance to a Mandarake, at Mandarake Henya! Plus the 4th floor has a cute little old school arcade too :) I would also recommend checking out the basement floor and surrounding streets if you want to get a feel for local life. Nakano is definitely one of my favourite places to visit, could probably spend all day there ^^;

[@thisNatasha]

Oh yes we hardly ever go to the 4th floor! Last time we went it didn’t seem worth it - but I think after reading your comment I should check it out again!!! I’ll be back in jan so I’ll go check it out then! Thanks!!!

[@Moonsnowrose]

Doraemon lol. It's Osomatsu-san hahaha

[@Liezjeuh]

OMG so much Punzie stuff!

[@thisNatasha]

Right?! That animatronic is amazing!!! Cannot wait to get on that ride!

[@Liezjeuh]

@@thisNatasha It is SO cute!!!!

[@leiravalentine5242]

Great informative vlog Natasha!

[@scrapbookshopplanner6084]

Love your videos they are so informative. Is there a way of finding locations of that fun Magic Castle arcade game as the original website is now not working. I’m only going into actual Tokyo for one day as I’m mainly at Disney and really wanted to have a go.

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks so much! I'm afraid the game has now finished - someone told me a few weeks ago it had closed. Apparently you can still buy cards and keys in the second hand card stores in Akiba and Nakano. But if you're interested in other card games I'd recommend going to Yodobashi Camera in Akihabara - there's some great games there!!!

[@wendydiz]

Thanks for another great video! Any chance you remember the name of the breakfast place you went to?

[@thisNatasha]

The Little Bakery at 3-Chome! It might be "san-chome"! It's just north east of Shinjuku Station. I hope it helps! :D

[@lenpaula7693]

Love your vids, been dreaming to go to Tokyo and watching your vids for guide ❤️❤️

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks so much Paula!!! I hope you get to visit Tokyo soon! :D

[@abigailhirst2099]

LOVE your Japan videos! I’m heading back to Tokyo in March and I’m looking at getting some anime art books, any where you’d recommend?

[@thisNatasha]

Oh amazing!!! Akiba is amazing for that. 7th floor of the Yodobashi Camera building has a book store where we always find art books, also k-books has loads too!

[@abigailhirst2099]

thisNatasha thank you so much! Im going to make a special trip into Yodobashi now!

[@mirae9860]

I love to watch your vlog. You are so pretttyyyyy

[@mr.momoironezakeco.2955]

Can you do a video dedicated to the 🧞‍♀️ magic ✨ card games... I’m so curious how it’s played and how you use all the cards you have and keys 🔑 . Looks so cute in your previous videos but always want to see more. Please 😊.. Ty.

[@thisNatasha]

Sure! One is right here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKDbaaiaYsakfsU

[@mr.momoironezakeco.2955]

[@melaniejaneprocter5529]

Hi Natasha Wow thanks for this video, I'm staying in shinjuku, I can add this to my list, just ordered my puroland ticket got it half price so excited. This place looks cool spotted some hello kitty item's I have that money box you played with so cute. 🤗😍💖💙📸🎀👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks so much Melanie! Yeah you'll find loads of hello kitty stuff here - mostly older merch and second hand stuff. The money box was so cute!!!

[@melaniejaneprocter5529]

@@thisNatasha cool can't wait even more now to go. 🤗😍💖

[@ivegyattocomment]

Which do you recommend here or Akihabara? Nakano alone is overwhelming to me 😆

[@thisNatasha]

Oh! If Nakano is overwhelming then maybe Nakano still - as Akihabara is crazy! I prefer Akiba though - but that’s only because I love Yodobashi Camera!

[@pet_tularhodes3687]

Is it getting cold in japan already ? We are coming back for our forth trip in December winter 😬

[@antonyjackson2324]

Pet_tula Rhodes this video was part of her trip in December - January

[@pet_tularhodes3687]

Ahhh okay I went back and looked at the date she posted it and I’m thinking what I didn’t think it was that cold when we went to japan in September wow

[@thisNatasha]

Ha ha yeah sorry! I'm pretty late with the upload atm! Sorry about that!

[@Primevals33]

You went into one of the largest malls that have Godzilla, Kaiju and super sentai figures and all you show us is DISNEY TOYS AND FIGURES????? Shame on you young lady, lol. We need a part 2

[@CarlosCruz-ew5gu]

Could you please point me to the Disney Magic Castle Volga was looking but could not find it. Thanks

[@thisNatasha]

Sure! It's here kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKDbaaiaYsakfsU

[@shivaasaemeow5771]

Do you prefer Akihabara or Nakano?

[@thisNatasha]

Oh big question!!! I always go to both when I visit Tokyo; but I guess I prefer Nakano for shopping, I can find more stuff there. But Akiba is better for cosplay, tech stores and for newer merch. I hope that helps!

[@shivaasaemeow5771]

thisNatasha Yes Thank you! Also are they the same in terms of price range?

[@vrakula]

Awesome video! Do you speak Japanese?

[@thisNatasha]

Thanks! And yeah to an intermediate level. It’s slipping though - I need to get a new Japanese teacher!

[@vrakula]

@@thisNatasha Cool :) I'm about to start learning this fall.
