it was a kilometer away so I ran there, and I got it and then I ran back

It was another Slakoth and I used a Pinap berry so I got six candies, yes

We're heading to the recycle store now. So gonna take you guys on a tour. It's my absolute

Favorite store- they have clothing, they have plushies they have

Figures...what else do they have- they have like a snack section like a traditional Japanese snack section

Keyboard-san likes the One Piece section, so he usually looks through that and comes home with another figure for his desk

There's a jewelry and a watch section. There's tons of stuff. Anyways, so I'm gonna take you guys for the grand tour

We're going there now

Say bye bye to my, my wardrobe- big chunk of it

We're at the recycle store now

I'm in the girls section. The girls section is a lot smaller than the guy section unfortunately, but it's still quite large

Lots of clothes and shoes and purses

Those are interesting

Sometimes you can find brand-new things here with the tags still on, especially after lucky bag season

Because if people don't like what they got, they just take it to the recycle store

Without even wearing it once

This one is (Japanese) "sen ni hyaku", so about twelve dollars

And then stuff that isn't a well-known brand will be a lot cheaper

They often sort things by the brand so it's really easy to find stuff

This winter jacket by Lip Service is only

two thousand

Eight hundred yen. Less than $30

Recently they've started selling Big Bang's stuff too

lots of the merch from concerts and

stuff around like kujis

Nicole would like this

$10, that's a good price

Hello

There's some posters

Here's the Johnny's section- the Japanese boy idols

Mostly just photo cards, oh looks like they have some concert merch

here though

Light sticks, oh, that's so cute. Oh, she has the cutest light stick

Some female idols as well- not very many though- the female idol section's really small

Whoa, they're mystery boxes with Idol goods. This is Kanjani8.

This is like a

mixture of

K-pop ones

They'd be fun to like unbox

Should I get this and unbox it with Nicole

The One Piece section I was talking about

Keyboard-san's favourite.

We've been looking for a certain two figures for a while, and we can't find them. They must be super rare

We've got four out of the six of the collection

but

they're nowhere to be found

But recycle stores are a really great place to get figures cuz you can get them for really good prices

and the selection here is insane

There's so many

Look at all these figures

And this is all just One Piece

there's some Dragonball

Giant Dragonball plushie

He tries to buy Doflamingo every time I come here

how much?

Christmas Chopper

Tons of really pretty dolls too - I'm always looking at these when I come in here

these range in price from about

$70 to about $170

The anime merch is the craziest. There must be at least

Like ten thousand figures in this store alone

Again, really cheap - these are all $10 each

Recycle stores are a great place to come for souvenirs - you have friends who like anime

Many of these have never been opened- they're sealed in the box

Some wall scrolls

Sonico

my favorite section

So it's really cute teacups for two dollars, and if you find three items with this sticker on it you can get them for five dollars

Such a good price.

Chibi Sonico

Really cute, all five in the set for $30.

They always have some Sailor Moon stuff, but not much

lots of gachas

Sakura Hatsune Miku Nendoroid for $18, feel that that's a really good price - in the box, brand-new

This is a huge Sonico, how tall is it - it's one-fifth scale

This is my hand for reference. It's really big

it's also a hundred dollars

This is the Gundam section - the kits where you make them yourself

So many, and again, really really cheap, way cheaper than if you bought them new

Even though lots of them still are brand new, and they haven't been used

about $30.

This giant one is

$80.

These are all about $20

Keyboard-san wants a Gundam now

How much

My favorite part of the recycle stores are the little

Lucky boxes that they do - you have no idea, well

You can kind of get an idea cuz you can see a little bit

But you can't see everything, so you don't really know what you're gonna get and they're quite cheap. Sometimes

You can find some really cool stuff in there

And they usually have a theme, so you can look through them and try and find one you like

Sometimes I get the Pokemon ones and get lots of those little sofubi figures that I paint

found lots of lucky boxes

K-On

(Reads the Japanese)

Pretty girls

Sonico and K-On

Five dollars

Oh, it's like a 3D, 3D picture

If you look hard you can find stuff from video games too, but it's mostly from anime

I'm always looking for Final Fantasy stuff. There's really not much- you'd expect there'll be anymore

Cuz it's Japan, but

They're kinda hard to find.

There's a UFO catcher for a (Nintendo) Switch, what. That must be so hard

It's 200 yen per play

How many plays will it take to knock it down?

This is the traditional Japanese snack section. It's a mix of stuff

That's been around forever and some newer snacks. One of my faves

sweet potato jelly, it's

So good

There's actually something I wanted to get from here to show you guys

I got one before and then I forgot to show it in a video, so I'm going to see

If they have it still

Didn't have the one I was looking for but I got a couple things to show you guys

And I'm gonna look at my house because I think I still have it somewhere

So I'm gonna stop by here and grab some food for Keyboard-san, he's hungry

Luna

Maro

Hey

Hi

So we printed out my visa application form for Korea, and it's a freaking novel

Twenty pages long

Now that I have this cute little teapot, it's so easy to make loose leaf tea, so I'm gonna try out

It's not a snack. I'm sorry. It's a tea. I'm sorry. Do you want a snack?

Do you want a snack Maro?

Want a snack?

Is it snack time?

Okay, we'll get back to the tea in a sec.

What snack do you want. Luna, pick a snack? What do you want?

What do you want? Come here

What do you want?

Want a tube?

Where are the tubes?

Don't have any tubes. There's none left.

Sorry - oh there they are, it's your lucky day, what flavor is it?

Lobster, fancy

Are you gonna share?

It's like Lady in the Tramp with the tube

Is it good? You like that one.

Maro, get in there, you're not gonna get any

Ah it's on my leg. Maro, get it, my leg

There ya go

Because this is orange flavor, I think it'll taste so good with vanilla soy milk

Let's let that steep for four minutes

Mmm. Not really sweet, but just enough

I really like that. Okay, I'm gonna go write my book of visa

application papers

I'll be back in a couple hours to show you guys what I got at the recycle store, those little um

Japanese snacks that I got

Two hours later.

I just got a package from Australia. I've been waiting for this

Yes

Oh my god!

So this is cotton candy

Boys Tears flavor

Ginger Bread

Peppermint and

Snowball

You guys

There was a little iron-on patch and some stickers inside

So this is from @fluffegram on

Instagram, go check them out. They have the nicest looking cotton candy. Okay. Let's taste it. Let's taste it right now

What flavor should we go with?

I kinda want to try Boys Tears because I've no idea what that'll taste like. I've never had

Fancy cotton candy before, I've only had like the cheap stuff

From the fair. Oh my god. It smells so good

Oh my god, it's amazing

At first it's really sweet and

Then it's slightly salty

Which is new for me for cotton candy, but I love it

Luna wants some

Sorry Luna

It's not for cats

This package is a dream come true. This would make the best birthday present for someone. Who doesn't like cotton candy?

Okay I wanna show you guys what I got at the store.

These are two of my favorite, uh

Snacks in Japan, so if you come here, I recommend that you try these

Here's a number one. This is called Hitokuchi Yaki-imo Yokan

"Hitokuchi" means like "one bite". "Yaki-imo" means like

Mmm grilled

Potatoes - is it grilled?

Like those steaming sweet potatoes that they sell here in Japan and

"Yokan" is what this is. Let me show you, it's kind of like a jelly, but there's no gelatine in it. It's made using Kanten

So this is what it looks like, you pop it out of the tube

It's this like

Solid jello-ish thing and it smells so sweet

Mmm. It smells like caramelized sweet potatoes

Mmm. Have it, it's so good

And this is 20 cents, you can get these for about 20 cents

20 yen. Oh I lied, 30 yen, 30 yen

But I feel like getting it out a recycle store is probably not the best place, you go to a grocery store

They're probably like 20 yen

And then one of my other favorite snacks are these, these are called "Don Don

Yaki", and they're sauce flavored. Unless you've been to Japan

Probably don't know what that means, but it's like okonomiyaki sauce

That kind of sauce

Looks like that inside

They are these little deep fried snacks that are covered in

sauce flavored powder

And they're kind of, they have like a slight vinegar taste to them, I think that's what I really like about them

It's kind of like, if I had to compare it to something

American, it would be like salt and vinegar chips mixed with maybe barbecue chips

And that's the best I can do. They're so addictive, they're so good

and again super cheap

20 yen - 20 cents for this pack of them

When you come to Japan

Try those two snacks. If you've tried them before, let me know what you think of them.
