Cool things to buy in Japan that you can't buy here
My friend is going on holiday to Japan and said she'll buy me stuff i want. I don't really know what to ask for though...
Has anyone been to Japan and got cool stuff? Is this worth talking about?
I wish i was going to Japan.

bento boxes and various dekoben
also, lots of pocky
...
"Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii)"

sweets and toys
there are these buns called 'anpan' which are maybe my favourite food ever. the standard one has a sweet red bean paste filling and is probably the best, but you can also get 'melonpan' and other types.
they look like this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cf/Bean-jam-bun%2Canpan%2Ckatori-city%2Cjapan.JPG
so ask for some anpan
japanese people love scottish stuff
they sell beer
In vending machines, on the street! The pissed up little chaps.
They sell everything in vending machines
Including women's underwear. Score?

Weird soft drinks
I recommend Pocari Sweat
those long white socks that japanese schoolchildren wear
they look comfortable
I got soiled schoolgirl pants which none of my friends want and a plastic model of a mutilated woman in a bubble
Don't get Pocari Sweat. It's vile.
If you are going to Tokyo then look up the Tokyo Damage Report for a guide to weird/underground Tokyo.
