Awkward moment in Japan.steemCreated with Sketch.

in #travel7 years ago

In one of my trips to Japan, I went to Akihabara, of course to see all the technological and the anime shops and I saw this:

And I said, well, I can buy a costume to my wife, like Sailor Moon or something, and play her a joke to wear it on you know, those kind of nights...

So, I went inside and the building had several floors, the first one was small and nothing interesting, so I went up to the second one, and... wait a second! Where all the costumes gone? I encountered a lots of porn videos and magazines, and some Japanese staring at me. Well, maybe the costumes are on the third floor, so I went up on more floor, and what? worse! No costumes, instead, a lot of consolators, dolls, etc. and more Japanese with red faces. Awkward moment, but hey, I'm already here, so I went up to the four (it had eight) and... holy molly! A floor of Sadomasochistic and weir staff, and the red faces turn to afraid and confused... so I decided to escape as fast I could, without checking the remaining floors, and without the Sailor Moon costume =P

Well, it happens that the Japanese have some shops that only Japanese are allowed, and others that are only for foreign.

Well, things that can happen.

Bye!

A truly awkward experience. But a good one... otherwise you don't have this lil story to tell and putting a smile on my face :D

That's right =)
