Today (and yesterday) in Tachikawa, a matsuri was held. It's a pretty normal matsuri, actually not so interesting compared top other Japanese matsuri I've been, maybe it was because of the temperature, I don't know...
It's a matsuri so I had to buy Yakisoba! |
Anyway, in parallel to this matsuri, a anime rally was organized, where you have to walk all around town to get cards from participating shops, if you get 7 or more, you get a special 2015 Railgun Calendar.
This was the starting point:
So I did it, and I also collected some of the special goods sold there along the way. It was a long walk, took me about 3 hours (you need only 7 cards, but I went and got all 10 of them, and 2 shops also gave me last year's card so I got 12 in the end), unfortunately, once you go a little farther away from the station, Tachikawa isn't really interesting. So it wasn't really that nice.
And the calendar they give as prize is ... meh
I don't regret doing it, spoke with some people, especially the people at the Tea house (one of the participating shops) were really nice.
Here's some pictures of some of the shops:

Tachikawa also has some really nice Index Vending Machines all around town, I found 4 of them, but unfortunately, not the Imouto one :( (I wasn't specifically looking for them so I didn't check their location on the internet, but it's available on Tachikawa's website)
The 4 I saw, and the special drink they offer:
And this is today's total loot:
