I missed lunch, so I really felt like stopping by the GSC Tetsujin Café…
…luckily Akihabara is nice and close to the new offices! ヽ(゚∀゚)ノ
When I arrived it was already closing time, but they let me in anyway! Yay! The Good Smile x Karaoke no Tetsujin Café can be found on the 5th floor of the AKIBA Cultures ZONE’s, just a bit off Akihabara’s Chuoudoori. I highly recommend it to anyone feeling a little peckish like me, or even if you just feel like taking a little break!
The café takes on a number of themes to suit certain animes, and last week…
Was the start of the YuruYuri♪♪ Amusement Club Café!
The entire café is filled with goods and figures from YuruYuri♪♪!!
Enjoy your food while gazing at the uniforms and dakimakura!
Smaller figures are lovely, but a 1/1 scale dakimakura really has a completely different feeling – it’s like they’re right there with you!
A mysterious box at the entrance!
It’s a spotlight box!
It’s huge! In the background are the letters ‘BAKYU-N!’, so you can stand inside and really feel like you’re the spotlight! Feel free to jump in and take a commemorative photo from the café!
I was given a Chinatsu table!
The mat on the table is filled with images of Chinatsu from the series, it’s lovely!! There are tables for the other characters, but the table you get is random – you just have to wait and see who you get once you arrive! (Which makes me want to come back over and over to get the other tables… :P)
The Amusement Club Café Menu!
■ Mixed Amusement Club Meal + Tin Badge & Place Mat: ¥880 ■ Steamy Hot Ochazuke + Tin Badge: ¥580 ■ Akkariiin Desert Set + Tin Badge: ¥580 ■ Akkanehn Desert Set + Tin Badge: ¥580 |
Now I’m even more hungry!! I’m not sure which one to pick, I want them all!!
■ Oshiruko Float + Tin Badge & Coaster: ¥580 ■ Mirukarun♪ + Tin Badge & Coaster: ¥580 ■ Coupling Drink + Tin Badge: ¥580 |
This is the drink menu! I don’t think I can drink all of them, so I’ll have to pick one… I think I’ll be trying out the float!
The Mixed Amusement Club Meal comes with a place mat!
You can also add on ¥100 to get it laminated! Then you can then take it home and use it whenever you like! Just ask anyone at the store if want that done!
A tin badge is included with all orders!
There are a total of 40 different badges and they are completely random – you pull one out of a box! I ordered three things from the menu, so I got three to start off my collection. ^^
Yui, Akari and Chinatsu!!
I got Akari doing the ‘BAKYU-N!’ pose! I must say I’m quite lucky when it comes to drawing things like this… :P
The Oshiruko Float!!
I was actually a little worried I wouldn’t really like this one, but it was actually incredibly good!! It is quite sweet, but not too rich, and the ice cream is a lovely palate cleanser!
The Mixed Amusement Club Meal!
There was a little concern about people being able to pronounce the Japanese name, ‘Gomoku Gorakubu Gohan’, but it seems most people aren’t having trouble with it. :P
The Akkanehn Desert Set!
The panties on the glass are your’s to take home!!
It was all absolutely delicious!
Other themed cafés besides the YuruYuri café are also running, so be sure to take a look around when you’re done with your meal!
If you are in Akihabara, I hope you’ll stop by and check out the café! There are also some goods on sale at the register once you’ve finished your meal!
