[@thatcutegameotaku]

honestly, i would respect a proposal with the onigiri ring. (and potentially accept it)

[@JapanGo]

Potentially... Haha!

[@andydomanski2876]

I must be the only person on the planet that has never heard of gashapon, thanks for educating me! 👍

[@JapanGo]

Sure! It’s probably worth checking out when you come to Japan 👍 - Yasu

[@haitolawrence5986]

Gashapon!!! I gave this an immediate thumbs up just reading the title. 😎

[@JapanGo]

Aha, you know what it is! It’s always a great fun 👍 - Yasu

[@cattenshi4213]

The detail on each product is Amazing! I would spend hours in that store!

[@planetaescapa6099]

Need some more of this addictive Gachapon opening. 😊❤️🇺🇸👍🏻

[@ms.pirate]

So many interesting little toys! When i was a kid (with barbie dolls) there was dolls houses, RVs and limos for barbies, little foods and make up, now, we have bear traps, (and at the dollar store, grills), and even more neat little things for toy dolls!

[@paltova]

I wanna have one for my upcoming birthday esp the sanrio characters 😭💗

[@marumisu9560]

I was going to say the butt detective was my favorite, but that praying mantis was a work of art.

[@JapanGo]

Haha! The detail on those bugs is incredible though! - Julian

[@Time4Lunch902]

Loved this video! You guys are doing great work and showcasing some fun places, looking forward to seeing what is next.

[@JapanGo]

Thank you! I'm not complaining about visiting all these places either aha. We've got loads of cool stuff in the pipeline too so stay tuned! - Julian

[@tuffmike7487]

Japans toy game is over 9000

[@mavrin1497]

Ahhh I can't wait to go to Japan now!!!!

[@JapanGo]

Gashapons await you! - Yasu

[@novanine]

Very nice. I miss gachapon!

[@JapanGo]

Aha, recent ones are getting more expensive but very elaborate, so it’s worth it 👍 - Yasu

[@charlottesmom]

Dang I LOVE the insect ones, was going to be an entomologist and adore insects of all types. 🐜🦗🦟🪳🪲🪰🐞

[@JapanGo]

Some of the bugs they have are so detailed! Really cool, I definitely would have been obsessed as a child if I grew up in Japan! - Julian

[@trevorrandom]

❤️ Gashapon!

[@JapanGo]

Yeah that’s it. We’re releasing new videos on gashapon soon 👍 - Yasu

[@williamwallace3057]

pretty cool stuff, that mantis was really nice

[@AzureStarline]

Definitely going here when you-know-what ends 🤩

[@JapanGo]

Oh yeah, definitely recommended, once ‘that thing’ is over 👍 - Yasu

[@JapanGo]

It'll be there waiting for you! - Julian

[@Shipwright1918]

Definitely would go for the Battle of Midway one, kinda ironic though.

[@MrRomif]

Waw, I love gachapon,, Too bad I dont stay in Japan 😭

[@JapanGo]

Come back one day! 😉 - Yasu

[@x5060]

How did you ONLY buy 5!?!?!

[@_The_Worst_]

🤔...I don't understand why the USA doesn't have this...💯✔

[@JapanGo]

Indeed. Gashapons should become available across the world 👍 - Yasu

[@charlottesmom]

Agreed!! I heard there is some in Texas (saw it in another video), doesn't help me being from the Northeast.

[@NotYOURbabydaddy]

We have stands in malls in chicago. Not many but you can find them of you look hard enough.

[@TheBaldr]

I'll respect them as long as they are not like the ones in Japan. In Japan they put a machine with one or two things that would be cool to have, then the rest of the items are usually Junk. (ie the Pokemon one where Pikachu and Squirtle are the good items, and the rest are pokemon you never heard of) then they fill the machine mostly with junk items. So they force you to keep on paying if you want a good item.

[@jaejoongwannabe]

Over 2200 gachapon to choose from. “I’ll only get 5”. Very tamed

[@JapanGo]

Do you want the video to be 5 years long!?

[@JapanGo]

Hahaha, one day bro 😎 - Yasu

[@jaejoongwannabe]

@@JapanGo yeah I wouldn’t mind a 5 year long video. 😅

[@haphuong382]

Oh i'ts so beautiful the figure .

[@trevorrandom]

Absolutely love Gashapon just so random!

[@JapanGo]

Yeah, I can totally appreciate their randomness too 😆 - Yasu

[@NessieMay]

So much fun 🤩

[@JapanGo]

It was!

[@mardecortez9268]

[@papyrusskeleton2331]

[@JapanGo]

You're never too old for toys aha - Julian

[@meggmcculloch]

Going to spend atleast a grand on gacha machines

[@mikewilson164]

did u find a outlaw star themed machine?

[@gabzpot]

I would get the Toho Monsters.

[@JapanGo]

Good choice, Godzilla and whatnots - Yasu

[@gabzpot]

@@JapanGo yes yes

[@myang12003]

Does the biggest gachapon store have gachapon toys that can transform?

[@sofiathlm7947]

I would sell half my lifespan to go and buy some

[@Zero1979]

Really cool video, I used to collect the Evangelion capsule figures way back in the day (living in the UK I had to buy them off eBay). I had no idea there was such a wide range now, and fantastic quality! Do we get 'gacha' game from the word 'gashapon' do you think?

[@JapanGo]

Thanks man! Ahh, good question. So I recently learned ‘Gashapon’ is the name used by Bandai, and ‘Gacha’ or ‘Gacha-gacha’ is the name used by Takara Tommy, which is the other one of two largest toy companies in Japan. I think people mostly call them ‘Gachapon’ today (as you also know), which seems like a combination of the two names - Yasu

[@Zero1979]

@@JapanGo interesting, thanks for the info! 😁

[@JapanGo]

Sure thing - Yasu

[@johanqin]

Ooh! Giveaway...

[@JapanGo]

Good luck!

[@MrMagigreen]

Not anymore. The new gashapon store in Sunshine City mall has 3000 machines!

[@JapanGo]

Yeah, I was just talking to Bandai people last week that we’ll make another video for the one in the sunshine city - Yasu

[@ASHERUISE]

Thank you for the important update. Guess I'll go there instead.
