While I am on the subject of #Atami, other things it's famous for

Art museum that does special exhibits like a Pokemon one some time ago.

Short boatride to a small island with beautiful starry nights

Large fireworks shows (40 minutes)

Atami Pudding (long lines and popular with the young)

If you visit Japan in winter, you may feel disappointed that it's too early for sakura. However, that's not true. Not too far from Tokyo, cherry blossoms bloom in Atami in winter and you can see them by the beach.

Atami also have hot springs and some good seafood restaurants

Something I learned reading a Japanese special on Super Mario Bros 40th anniversary:

The Japanese game was in English

Why? Because then they could use just the alphabet and save a lot of space

Now I want to boot up the Japanese NSO and see for myself

Got some duplicate 3 star cards. Any moots want to trade?

Got this Mega Man stand at TGS. Probably I should show the stuff I got from the show.
January 4, 2026 at 3:33 AM
Oh another Mega Absol EX. Looks like I can share this to a friend that has helped me collect so many missing cards
January 1, 2026 at 7:37 AM
Got some My Hero Academia goods with the sushi

Sometimes restroom signs are hilarious. Saw this in Seattle

Looks to me that Sony is embracing Astro Bot as their mascot in Japan. Here's them using it in a recruitment ad now.

So we got line stickers, showpiece at TGS, and now usage in ads.

Interesting thing I found in a Yokohama mall. As soon as you sit to do your business, this audio plays and won't stop.

My guess is it's to get people to hurry and leave?

That would certainly be a major change which also wouldn't fit in the story.

However, the screenshot in question is from the Online menu where the image next to it is from Starforce 2

Sure I got the immersive card, but my kid got 2 in a single pack... Plus other good cards. Someone is lucky this round

Ever had an apple with pink insides? First time for me and it was interesting.

So looks like the new region locked PS5 is maintaining sales. Why suddenly selling well despite not doing so when was at the price before?

The answer may be that buying digital+the disk drive is finally cheaper than than buying built-in model

A nice thing about the share feature in Pokemon TCG Pocket is there are some great people who help each other complete sets
