What is "kino"?.
imagine having to live in those apparts with perma train noises
that looks like hell to me
ALL CITIES ARE GARBAGE
Imagine living in Paris with millions of arabs and africans.
That looks like hell to me.
Oh, wait a moment it is hell.
good thing I don't live in Paris
functional public transportation and based rail lines
god I wish we had a well-run shinkansen, it would make the GTA almost bearable

Isn't that India? What the fuck?? Why the fuck Japan looks more shithole than my city?
Yeah the japs have some amazing city planning. Their cities are 10/10 asthetica
why are you mean :(
Every French city is like that Pierre.
uh oh, a nip fight incoming
I lived by the L In chicago for a year, after two weeks you literally stop noticing it. It becomes comforting background noise
How was the negro and arab/paki crime there?
I hate niggers and arabs/pakis.
Aight senpai, you keep India out of this. Big meanie
>lived by the L In chicago for a year
How's living in downtown Chicago? Not now but kinda looking into moving to either Rush, UIC, or NW (the hospital) for my work
Didn't meant to offense. But I'm visiting Japan at least 5 times a year for my business and stuffs but I have never seen that kind of shithole ever. I was just curious whether it's real or not.
The photo was taken at asakusabashi. This is more likely Japan I've seen.
looks like a mess
That looks way shitholier than op pic
What's so fascinating about this pic?
Doesn't really see any difference from the pic OP posted.
Probably just color tone difference.
Hmm.. Maybe I'm retarded :/
There's some ivy which adds some greenery and it has a cosy feel.
I dunno, I'm not a huge fan, but I can see the appeal.
On the /tv/ board, "kino" is a well-made movie. I'm supposing OP is wondering why Japanese cities look like movie sets.
fuck off jew
Now say it without crying Hyueung Park.
Kino is more than a well-made movie. Kino is a certain "feel".
big population + tiny landmass + government that knew what it was doing = among the best urban planning in the world
your cities were reset in ww2 because they were wood and the american bombs started fires. when you rebuilt you went for turbo utilitarianism, whereas the european approach included a lot of rebuilding even if they did get influenced by modern, cheaper building techniques and internationalist styles. european cities are a mix of old and new architecture and imperial architecture dominates the cores of their cities. japanese cities are all 70 years old. im from eastern north america, and our cities are a mix of old and new as well, so seeing these huge asian cities where the only old buildings are a handful of temples in a city of 10 million is definitely interesting
how are the people living in the apartments by the river? what do they do daily? do they like living there with 3 train lines right next to them?
>im from eastern north america, and our cities are a mix of old and new as well
but mostly new
a refained cinematography.
>/tv/
Thank you for the information. I'll try to avoid this cancer next time.
they are not apartments
used by stores or companies
im from montreal, the actual city part is pretty much just buildings from before the war, when it comes to residential buildings that is. obviously you will see new buildings, because old ones need to be torn down or are destroyed in fires etc. or are replaced by bigger, new buildings. but this is mostly in commercial areas. cities like philadelphia, boston and new york are all like this. you need to go into the boonies to see the new shit.
>montreal
oh i thought you were from quebec city
yeah you're right but montreal still has too much suburban sprawl YUCK
Dang. Thats neato
>yeah you're right but montreal still has too much suburban sprawl YUCK
well yeah i mean there only so many people who want to live in the city, you'll never defeat the new world autism about having a yard.
that being said, montreal has a preserved old quarter that was never wiped out by a fire and a lot of urban sprawl which is pretty based. if you compare montreal and toronto you'll see that their urban core is filled with detached cottages on small lots whereas montreal is actually pretty much all multifamily row houses until you get into the suburbs
The crime generally stays contained to their own shitty neighborhoods that regular people only enter for 3 reasons. 1having to drive through, 2getting lost, 3 buying drugs
i like montreal, its good except
>want to live in a nice house surrounded by fields in a small city like in the sound of music
>can't because everything is suburban sprawl
>pic related
isnt the house in the sound of music an estate that is quite a distance from the village/town? i wish i was rich too, user
no its right in the middle of the city but the city is small (population of around 100,000)
its just not sprawling so theres small fields spread out throughout the city
pic related is the house which is around a 30 min walk from the city centre (i looked it up lol)
40* minute sorry
That would be such a dream to live in omg

that's a very particular example of landuse. i'm guessing it's private land? i can't really explain any other reason why it wouldn't have been developed
>kino
no
I honestly can't tell you're being ironic or not
arab/paki crime is not really a thing in the US my good sandman pal
sounds like Israel
a fusion of modernity and traditionalism for a cyberpunk aesthete
yes i know pic is macau
Imagine living in Israel with millions of arabs and africans.
That looks like hell to me.
Oh, wait a moment it is hell.
Ochanomizu? I was there. Cool place
exactly
Their buildings are so drab. I'd feel depressed looking at those all the time.
In this age of fiber optic telecommunication, I find the concept of mega-cities obsolete.
There is a street in Ochanomizu full of guitar shops. I wanted to visit Nikolai堂 but it was closed for some reason. It was around midday and it should have been opened
because you only watch weeb shit, you disgusting fuck
This looks awful wtf. No wonder Asians are insects
>Nikolai堂
ah you have a reason. it's one of the handful historic buildings which didn't go through the air raid in 1945. i visited there as late as last year for the first time even though i've lived here for 23 years lol
why are japanese cities so square?
they are?
somewhat, very boxy
buildings? yeah they are soulless
and then the cars are just as boxy
and we are foxy
yo senpai do you want dystopian cyberpunk or optimistic?
what a heaping pile of material that city must be
Japanese cities have very modern city planning thanks to the fact that most were burnt down in 1941-1945
without you we would never have known that
No problem man.
its a country
It's not. It's an autonomous part of China
yeah i should have said it was a meme country like HK
All *human cities.
idk
I used to live in Fukuoka prefecture Munakata, Komon. good place indeed i planned to come back for my own reasons.
It's a pity there's no live webcam with sound from this location.
Jow Forums is truly the place of international fetishism
Has nothing to do with /tv/. I hear Kino often IRL
Imagine being a fucking JEW
Imagine being a fucking slimy subhuman piece of dog shit
Imagine having millions of your """people""" killed but still not being able to understand that the whole world fucking hates you and wants you dead
Just imagine that for a second
Hey mon negrami.
Those trains have noise reduction, you barely hear them.
Do you really think the Japanese could pollute in such an ugly way?
Of course I understand you might have lower standards for the world around you nowadays because of all the brown people, but please never forget that Europe has historically held quality of life standards very high, and continues to try to do so. If you could just stop pinching your nose and get yourself to a place where the non-whites don't cloud your thinking with their stinky smells, I'm sure you would remember the good ol' days.
Based
I think Hong Kong is very comfy but I am a strange person
Its feels cramped as hell and this is coming from a Singaporean.
>you'll never defeat the new world autism about having a yard.
This. When I went travelling around in the Québec countryside, it was quite fun to suddenly see some house in the middle of a forest, no neighbour in a 10km radius, with a perfect green yard where every blades of grass was perfectly mowed at a millimeter precision.
aaa
Density is cute but Hellish for big boys such as I.
Kino is German for cinema
The last part looks like Train Valley
boxes are more efficiently for packing and piling
Rural Japan looks a lot more appealing to me. Would love to live there but I'm not gonna be one of those retarded weebs who unironically thinks they could ever fully integrate into an east asian country
damn that looks just like one of my animes
I dig this aesthetic so much
Looks like Kuala Lumpur only there isn't shit all over the place and the river looks like a rive and not a sewer.
That said, I'd prefer to live in KL over Tokyo because it has that proper dystopian feel that clean, neat Tokyo does not. I do wish it was more malay though, you can see how upset they are at the fact they're becoming a minority in their own city, with Chinese and Indian migrants flooding in.
I used to lived near there. It's nice for taking long walks in the spring. And when it started to rain you went to some cafe. Those were the days. I miss them :(
Imagine living in Israel.
I'd rather eat my testicles.
