What is Tokyo really like?

I don't know about people who grew up there or whose family is actually from there, but from my own experience as a foreigner and from talking to Japanese from elsewhere who went there for study or work, it sort of feels like living in a bubble. Everyone who you don't know, who isn't somehow involved with your daily life, might as well be part of the scenery. So it feels like an emptier, lonelier, smaller place than it is and than many smaller cities do.

>It's not as busy or loud as you would expect in the middle of a huge city.
Cause no black people.

Even Kyoto is higher than Tokyo
Is Kyoto nice?

Yes except for people.

Idiot. if any other race lived like that the city would be a violent shit hole with crumbling infrastructure.

living in the city is like that
i think other city too

Retard

Girls in cosplay trying to get businessmen into overpriced hostess clubs

Trouble makers kidnapping girls to take them to work at hostess clubs

Creepy Nigerians

Groping and creepyshots on trains

Hoards of tourists

Too many people everywhere all the time and everything expensive

Tokyo really kinda sucks unless you are rich, go in the off season, speak Japanese, and don't plan to stay

No

Yeah that's why I put "jk" in my name, but I guess this place needs bigger disclaimers for jokes than reddit

Tokyo is honestly the greatest city on this planet we call earth.

So many white girls who want a Japanese boy

because she smells

Still doesn't change the fact that Japanese copycat Western Civilization

>t.poorfag

Tokyo is not that expensive tho.

Not poor, it is overpriced if you live there in a not ghetto area. One of most expensive cities in the world. Are you a Nigerian scammer or something?

Comfiest city on the planet.
>Everything is clean
>A lot of places aren't crowded and pretty quiet
>Nice shops and food

I don't like Tokyo

It's just a normal Japanese city but much much larger and more expensive and crowded.

I hate people

You must be poor. Tokyo is cheaper than where I live in Australia.

yea, I think so
because Japan is deflation country.

That is a high salary in Japan.

Suburb isn't central Tokyo, good job.

You live in literal everything is expensive Australia, not the center of a major city in decent housing. Lemme guess, you just googled the cheapest you could find and don't actually live there? Could you also google the cost of living and average salary?

>Never even been to Japan let alone lived there, but doesn't want to be called out so calls someone poor.

The average person isn't wealthy enough to live there, why are you referring to me? I have lived in several countries and actually know what I'm talking about. Do even know what poor means?

What are you on about? When I was living there everything was expensive as shit.
Over here I could go on the casino in a beachside tourist town, and (if) I win around 150 bucks I would go on vacation there for 2 days!

Bih city
l don't like bih cities

l've been in Tokyo 2 times
Rural towns are better
But many fun is in Tokyo
You can find amusement
But l prefer rural
Sorry for retarded writing l'm drunk

>Suburb isn't central Tokyo, good job.
I'm not sure of your obsession with central but if you could wish to live in urban and littoral area, it costs you much money to pay.

Full of incels and insects, one of the biggest cities in the world yet manages to be one of the most boring places you can possibly visit.

Shinjuku is awesome

Not really!
But not bad!

its first world deal, even vacation on Europe takes 2k bucks to wander around.

It's a huge city, but it's not dense like most other Asian cities.

A shitty city. It's expected to be hit by a huge earthquake soon. At least 100k people will perish lmao

At the moment I live in a decent flat in the middle of a major city and rent is a bit under $1,500 a month. I paid maybe slightly over 2/3 of that to live within the 23 Wards (and not the shit half). That was several years ago, so I'm not too sure about inflation and exchange rates; I guess it would be about the same now as what I pay here. Admittedly my place there was a small one-room place rather than a 2LDK like I have here, but market standards are different there; you could also argue that it had higher convenience and amenity value.

Aside from rent, costs of living in Tokyo (and in Japan in general) are lower than in Australia by quote a lot for most things. Having also spent a good period of time in the countryside in Japan, I didn't notice a big difference in consumer prices for everyday items between rural areas and Tokyo.

You are right that I didn't consider (average) earnings. That's because that's what determines if a person is poor or not. If your earnings are low enough that you cannot afford to live in Tokyo, then you are absolutely poor.

Also, make up your mind: Is everything expensive here, do I just live in a dump, or am I just a liar who hasn't ever left Bungaroo Sheep Station?
(The first one is the closest to the truth.)
My God, why do you get so angry at being told you're poor? It's true; if you can't afford to live in Tokyo, then you are poor. You are poor. Only poor people sook about how things are great for "rich people".

The Philippines is a poor third world country.
>$150 for a two-day holiday to Japan
Where are you staying, Sanya?
