Went to the "Look Back" exhibit at Azadubai Hills Gallery in Tokyo. It's a beautiful animated film (getting a live-action version soon) and it was fun to see so much of the early artwork and get a peek into the creator's process. But I'm a sucker for diorama so this is what you get.

A few shots from Osaka including a strangely vulnerable message at a gentlemen's club, the famous Glico sign, one sample of the insane restaurant signs on Dotenbori, and the tiny private garden off our hotel room in Nagoya.
