| VERY! XD
well, in Harajuku it is. Shibuya too really, but mainly around the shops and on the trains. other places arent too crowded, like general streets and in the shrines and stuff (weirdly, the most crowded shrine we visited wasnt in even one in Tokyo, it was in Yokohama O_O i hated it, WAY too tourist-infested. which sounds dumb given that I was a freakin tourist there... but i hate places that feel too commercial, i guess?)

| xD Does that mean you hate any place in a foreign country that was designed for you?
Just kidding. x3
But yeah, I know what you mean. ^^;
Sounds like it was still fun, though. :3

| hmmm not exactly, for one thing i have a fear of crowds so i kinda freak out in really busy places like that anyway. but also i cant stand seeing really ignorant tourists, they just irritate the hell out of me... some people are just so embarassing. i prefer feeling like im getting an authentic experience as well... i mean when we went to the shrines in Tokyo we were the only tourists there, but the one in Yokohama... FLOODED with foreigners and their cameras and their kids, etc etc xD

| My memory's not that bad, though it's certainly not the greatest. >.>;
With that said, though, I can probably remember a few random bits of information that isn't really important. <.<;
