Akiba Report 2016/07/18

Been a while since I wrote any of this kind of post... like... 9 months if you count the YRYR café one as the last one.

Yesterday I went to Akihabara. There was a couple of Re:Zero collaborations I wanted to check. It had actually been a while since I had been to Akiba for myself, instead of just being there to show it to someone from oversea.

The first collaboration was with Go Go Curry, it's their second collaboration with the series it seems, in the first one they gave a special spoon, this time it was just a clear file. But this was enough to make the place full, and it had a waiting line outside.
Even when we passed in front of it hours later, it still had a waiting line.
The special menu item was a curry with mashed potato and a fried potato.... I'm actually not sure why, maybe because Subaru and Ram peeled a lot of potatoes?

The second Collaboration was with Pasela Resort, a Karaoke place. They had a few special menu items, which were all pretty normal, except 2, but they were good. For every items your order you get a random coaster. I got lucky and got Rem&Ram! Though I completely forgot about it, so I'm not sure but I think the special item for the Honey Toast was supposed to be something else....

After going to collabo I went to Akiba for, me and my friend wandered around town. Gamers had a lot of different museums this time, and finished their renewal.

Also since a new Animate was opened, a lot of stuff moved in the old one. The top floor is now only for cards.

Did a bit of shopping too, of course, but not much,
Here's a pic of that day's loot, including collabo items.
