This matches my experience. Japan is underrated.

I had a bad experience there last year. Maybe I went at the wrong time?

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has stayed consistent recently.

How's the food there compared to Germany?

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try asking locals for recommendations.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

Great report! Quick question — how was the Uber availability?

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

I was there in January and can add some detail:

Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was excellent.

My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.

One tip: Late night you get the best deals.

Any restaurants or bars you'd recommend for hanging out during the day?

Good info. I'd add that the evening is the best time to go.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2023.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls at clubs?
