Tokyo is Hard for an Otaku

[@TheBakedPotato]

I have to say, I didn't even know otome was a thing until this video. Your enthusiasm is quite contagious! Glad you had some fun.

[@LinLinLavender]

Haha, can't blame you for that 🤣 thanks for watching anyways 🥰 what kind of merch would you be interested in?

[@dynamitekitties]

Looks like Lin opened up Pandoras Box of buying merchandise and had to face the wrath of the Yang Tax 😂 -Money is temporary but husbandos are forever- .This was great video and guide and really made me want to go on the hunt for merch again lol!

[@LinLinLavender]

I did 😭 hope I'm done now 😬 Money goes, merch stays 🤣 Glad you enjoyed it! Definitely fun going on merch hunt 🤭

[@meyou9887]

The last time I‘ve been to Tokyo I spent way to much money on Attack on Titan and Kuroko no basket merch 🙈 the Yang and Dante clips you got are cute and perfect when you have an office job. You can hold papers and documents together with those 😊

[@LinLinLavender]

I feel that 😅 you start with a bit and then it suddenly piles up 😬 That's such a good idea, thank you!

[@Tamagojani]

You can’t put a price on love😌 Thank you for sharing your tips! I will keep them in mind for my next trip (and hopefully my wallet won’t die) You got so much beautiful merch and the bag looks so cute with all the badges🥺 I also have the little Otomate garden Yang standee and he is one of my favorites hehe

[@LinLinLavender]

Right? 🥰😅 Good luck, be strong! Thank you ☺️ He really is sooo cute!

[@Hyzennthlay]

Please tell me you went to Stellaworth in Ikebukuro! I lost my mind in that store. It’s like treasure trove of otome games, drama cds, and cute merch.

[@LinLinLavender]

No! But I'll go there, thanks for the tip! 😁🥳

[@MeowMyselfandI]

I'm so glad you found so much stuff that makes you happy 💖 I'm also not a merch person but I know I'd buy at least a few things if I visit Japan again haha

[@LinLinLavender]

Thanks 🥰 Then better not come again 🤣

"Kuhen stinks" sent me to heaven and back :')

[@LinLinLavender]

I'm sorry, it does though! It smells like man perfume 😭 the exact opposite of sweet

[@millasgameroom]

Lovely haul Lin! And thanks for showing us the famous Otome Road and Otomate Store! Definitely gonna have to go next time I'm there. Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip!

[@LinLinLavender]

Thanks 🥰 definitely interesting to see everything live Oh, thank you!

[@lusciousvampire9787]

I was soooo happy when you pulled your guy from Yumekuro!!! :D His meister event right now made me think of you! I would love to get Towa's merch--he is still best boy to me. I loved this video and witnessing all your fangirling over Yang. ❤ Also, your lavender shirts are so cute!! 😍

[@LinLinLavender]

Naw, thank you 🥰 I also pulled him there in the first pull, and two times in the second, it's fate 😍 Hope you find some Towa merch! Haha, thanks 🥰🥰

[@buttercupvenus]

Oh man I'd love to visit the otomate cafe one day! That Piofiore clear file though 😍 and the Chibi Ion stand is adorable!

[@LinLinLavender]

Definitely worth a visit! Even if you don't like the game 😆 Right?? I love it so much - that I'm not gonna use it and it rots in my cupboard 😅 Thanks 😍 didn't see much Paschalia merch...he and Ion don't seem to be very popular 🥲

[@tiffiekasumi4948]

Loved this video and seeing your merch hauls!😍So happy to see you are enjoying your time in Japan! Also, Yang inflation indeed💔😂

[@LinLinLavender]

Thanks 🥰 Really, life is hard for a Yang fan 🥲

[@ichi_san]

I feel you there, Tokyo is tough for the otome fans. ESPECIALLY IKEKBUKURO Otome Dori second hand stores and the second hand stores that are in many areas TT-TT Nakano Broadway is awesome their prices are so good.

[@LinLinLavender]

Yes 😁 do you have any more recommendations?

[@ichi_san]

Even though it is in Osaka, DenDen Town is the best, it's a lot cheaper than Akihabara.

[@LinLinLavender]

@@ichi_san so far 🥲 next time! Thanks 😊

[@kau_chan_plays]

Wow !!! Nice places !!!!! 😮😮😮😮 I am so so stunning seeing all tgise merch Wish you have fun

[@LinLinLavender]

Thank you 🥰 it was indeed fun! Hope I don't buy anything more 🤣

@@LinLinLavender it's satisfying seeing you exciting to get those merchandise ahhahah 🤣 evil me

[@feistymind4915]

I like the characters maybe if i was 15 i would have bought a merch like crazy But now that i am older i would not

[@LinLinLavender]

There is a time for everything ☺️

[@fayhoonfaisal7236]

wow congrats on joining merch club 🥳you know now how it feels to get these pieces of plastic 💸 ahhh i wish i can go to japan too one day ... to spend all the money i have 🤣 also this was a great reminder to thank some of my decisions when buying LEs of games 😜 i noticed chibi merch are quite popular ! glad again i'm not a fan 😂 the Yang badges you got as well as the bag both are very pretty 💓nice job picking them up 💯

[@LinLinLavender]

Thanks 😅 I hope I won't buy anything more .. Oh no, don't 🤣 Definitely! It's time for me now to also consider LEs ... Right? I also love the badges on the bag - so beautiful 😍

[@Riee138]

Such amazing hauls 🙏 I'd be poor... And already in your video is so much great idolish7 stuff. 🛐You did that on purpose right? My fav MomoYuki artwork 8:23 🥰🥰🥰

[@LinLinLavender]

I did ☺️ it's indeed your paradise, or hell

[@victoriamarfina9819]

You look so gorgeous and elegant in all your clothes 💞 May I ask where do you find such nice clothes? I wish I had a stylist like you 🤧

[@LinLinLavender]

Oh, thank you! It's actually so easy to get cute clothes in Japan! I went to Lumine Est and stores like lipservice, dholic..can't remember all, and GRL as well I think with proxies you should be able to shop there overseas as well!

[@ojyochan]

I figured I wouldn't be a merch person, either, but I've bought a couple Ikemen Prince Luke items, got a Benkei chibi acrylic omamori and a couple small standees, and my prize hatsukoi Olympia Soiree Yosuga pillow off mercari😊

[@LinLinLavender]

@@ojyochan that sounds awesome 😍

[@TheDelikizzz]

I was just about to ask about the brand of the itabag thanks for posting the link. I was in Busan, Korea and came across a second hand anime goods store and bcuz otome isnt big here there were a lot of cheap badges for older games like amnesia brocon dialovers cxm and even some random ones for piofiore and olympia soiree. They were all dirt cheap like 2000 to 5000 won (1-4 usd) so i bought a bit too many. They also had a3 and hypmic etc soo it was amazing. I totally understand your struggle to not buy everything. I hope i can go to japan next year and visit these stores.

[@LinLinLavender]

Oh no, then we suffered the same fate 😆 have fun decorating the ita bag! I hope so too, it's so much fun 🥰

[@arlekino0792]

All is a hella expensive stuff 😢

[@LinLinLavender]

That's why Tokyo is hard 😅 but the exchange rate is extremely good for me right now 😬

[@xcerisex5422]

Which stores would you recommend that offer the best variety of otome merch? Im going to Japan soon and can't decide between Nakano Broadway or Akihabara, as im already planning on visiting Ikebukuro. 😞

[@LinLinLavender]

I think Nakano Broadway has more variety than Akihabara, but yes, Ikebukuro is our paradise 😍
