But yeah, that was a good time re-visiting Little Tokyo in LA and taking part in an event for the latest installment in a beloved Horror game series.
This collab runs until October 19th!

As I was leaving, I noticed the speakers at the metro stop advertising the game while an instrumental of Mayoi Uta played.
I guess it plays whenever a train stops, and some trains even were decked out with decals of the game.
Now all I have left to do is actually play it lmao

They ran out of tote bags and posters, but I got the pamphelt and a photo in their display.
They told me they'd have more bags and stuff tomorrow but I work, so alas.
Regardless, I got to walk around, try a bunch of new food, and get away from my computer for a good 5 hours lol

As I walked around, I started seeing people with tote bags, and they said they got them at Hypland, which ALSO opened earlier than scheduled!
I went immediately and lined up!

Next was the Far East bar
I got the Agura No Hotei-sana & Ayakakashi
I didn't get the Divine Water as they said there was no way to make it non-Alcoholic & I'm not gonna break my sobriety LOL.
Mocktail was very tangy, Appetizer was THE BEST of the food items imo!
The bathroom doors were also themed

Next was World 8-2, which opened earlier than the schedule said.
They unfortunately didn't have any remaining freebies and said they were not re-stocking.
The decals around the store looked cool though!

Next to open was Mitsuru Cafe, which had the Yokan & Waruhabami.
This was my first time trying any kind of Dango and Imagawayaki.
The Waruhabami was tasty, but it stuck to my teeth.
The Yokan was my second favorite food item of all the ones I tried!
Don't skip it!!

Hypland had cool decals that would make for good photo ops, but unfortunately and unsurprisingly, it got vandalized with grafitti.

It was raining earlier in the day which I felt fit the theming of the event lol
Abe-Abare was the worst of the food items I tried imo, but still a cool theme, & the latte was nice.
The latte gets redder the closer you get to the bottom!
4th pic was my reaction to the Red Latte.

Couldn't get the themed metro tap card unfortunately.
I heard they were given out and not a part of the machine dispensers.
Little Tokyo has no public bathrooms which sucks but I get it.
Cafe Dulce, which was open the earliest, had the Spider Lily Latte & Are-Abare, which I tried!

The collab was called "A Taste of Ebisugaoka" and right when you walk around and then into the plaza, there was neat theming everywhere.
I always love coming to Little Tokyo and collabs like these are so much fun.

Went to Little Tokyo in Los Angeles, CA. for the Silent Hill f takeover that's going on from now to October 19th!
Missed the first day with the live music show and stamp rally, but still wanted to get up early to try the food and see what cool stuff I could get.

Here's YET ANOTHER instance I noticed of songs that sound similar:
Silent Hill f : 迷い歌
WaxWorks: Egypt (DOS ver.)
The moment I heard this song back at AX 2025, my brain made the connection lol

MANNN
Just found out that there's a Silent Hill f x Little Tokyo collab event in LA today!
Can't go cause I have to work but I want to see pics please!
They say if you take the metro, the intercom will say you're reaching ebisugaoka.
The collab at least will run through Oct 19th so I gotta stop by!

In case it's not obvious, I do not give permission, or endorse artwork I create to be used for any AI project of any kind.
I only use AI to upscale artwork I created if I realized the original canvas was too small & I'm on a crunch.
I will then go back in & by-hand fix it up.

Diario (That Clock Tower Guy) @diarioart.bsky.social · 14d

Where I stand on AI art:
If it's upscaling your own original work and you go in to touch up the image that was upscaling your own original art, then that's fine.
If you generate a prompt to create artificial work that you did not draw, & you pass it off as your work, that's bad.

The instrumental dropped, so I had to do this real quick lol
Not the first one who thought of this but yeah the formula is there

New PFP again!
This time I re-did the Profile of me in the Clock Tower portrait style!
I've done this take before, but those were just me color-blending like crazy.
This, while not perfect, is more accurate to the 15-color limit, like the original.
