Akihabara is one of Tokyo's biggest anime and gaming and electronic districts.

秋葉原是東京最大的動漫和遊戲及電子區之一。

And this area right here is actually called Electric Town.

而這裡的這個區域實際上被稱為電氣城。

Tokyo has been undergoing a lot of changes over the past couple of years.

在過去的幾年裡，東京一直在經歷著很多變化。

So I've been on a little bit of a personal mission to document or capture as many of my personal favorites as I can.

是以，我一直在進行一項小小的個人任務，儘可能多地記錄或捕捉我個人的最愛。

Mhm.

嗯。

Oh I understand you see Japan is different from a lot of other countries in the sense that while land value will likely appreciate over time, real estate or the buildings themselves will gradually depreciate in value and more often than not need to be torn down or rebuilt once every couple of decades then since like yeah, but I was obviously not immune to this.

哦，我明白了，你看日本與其他很多國家不同，雖然土地價值可能會隨著時間的推移而升值，但房地產或建築物本身會逐漸貶值，更多的時候需要每幾十年拆毀或重建一次，然後自如是的，但我顯然不能倖免於此。

I've been wanting to come out and explore it at night for for some time now.

我一直想在晚上出來探索它，已經有一段時間了。

Mm mhm I don't know about you but I have, it has always been one of my favorite areas just to walk and explore.

我不知道你怎麼樣，但我有，它一直是我最喜歡的地區之一，只是為了散步和探索。

There's so many things just tucked and hidden around every single little corner of this.

有這麼多的東西就藏在這裡的每一個小角落裡。

Can you see the excitement for example, back there near the station, right underneath the tracks.

比如說，你能看到後面靠近車站的地方，就在鐵軌下面的興奮點。

There's this whole set of electronic shops that's just hidden there.

有這樣一整套的電子商店，就藏在那裡。

It's got multiple floors and it's, it's just the coolest little space and that truck is really noisy but actually right over here.

它有多個樓層，它是，它只是最酷的小空間，那個卡車真的很吵，但實際上就在這裡。

There's an area that I once was trying to get as my office or my studio right down this super narrow little corridor here.

有一個區域，我曾經試圖把它作為我的辦公室或我的工作室，就在這個超級狹窄的小走廊裡。

There's a space right here.

這裡有一個空間。

This is perfect little space just tucked in the back of Akihabara and it's got a sign that says they're looking for tenants and it has been like this for as long as I can remember.

這是一個完美的小空間，就在秋葉原的後面，它有一個標誌，上面寫著他們正在尋找租戶，從我有記憶以來，它一直是這樣的。

So a year or two ago I reach out to them and inquired into renting the space and they said that it's simply too old and that they need to take down the sign and and here we are, the sign is still there.

是以，一兩年前，我聯繫他們，詢問租用空間的問題，他們說，這地方太舊了，他們需要拆掉招牌，現在我們在這裡，招牌還在那裡。

They haven't taken it down, but how cool would have that been to have an office right in the center of Akihabara.

他們沒有拆掉它，但是在秋葉原的中心有一個辦公室是多麼酷啊。

I would have loved that.

我本來很喜歡這樣。

And in retrospect it is probably a good thing.

現在回想起來，這可能是一件好事。

Now.

現在。

I have my home office which is larger, has a way better commute.

我有我的家庭辦公室，它更大，有一個更好的通勤方式。

And I don't know if you've noticed, but the locks back, they just do not seem secure.

我不知道你是否注意到，但後面的鎖，它們似乎並不安全。

I would not want to be leaving my gear there.

我不希望把我的裝備留在那裡。

But you know, a couple years back, I did a video on a capital where we went to this tiny little shrine hidden in the gap between buildings and I'm kind of wondering if it's still there so much has changed.

但是你知道，幾年前，我做了一個關於首都的視頻，我們去了這個隱藏在建築物之間的縫隙中的小神社，我有點想知道它是否還在那裡，所以已經發生了很多變化。

It should be this way.

應該是這樣的。

I'm not mistaken.

我沒有弄錯。

We should be able to access it down this super narrow alleyway.

我們應該可以從這條超級狹窄的小巷中進入。

Oh wow!

哦，哇哦!

This brings back memories and it should be just right through here.

這勾起了我的回憶，它應該正好通過這裡。

There it is, oh wow!

就在那裡，哦，哇哦!

I am just so happy that this is still here and probably equally excited that the camera can actually pick all of this up because this area looks really cool at night.

我只是很高興這一切還在這裡，可能同樣興奮的是，相機能真正把這些都拍下來，因為這個地區在晚上看起來真的很酷。

But check this out.

但請看這個。

This little shrine here actually has its own address.

這裡的這個小祠堂實際上有自己的地址。

Like this says she had a cool photo, candy yang yang, no go!

像這樣說，她有一張很酷的照片，糖果陽陽，不走了!

So that has its own address and apparently there's a secret society of super villain artists also just for good measure that there is not the accurate date and time which probably didn't need to be said but you know internet and right around the corner here there are some moderately interesting vending machines that sell cards like this one here has Pokemon cards.

是以，它有自己的地址，而且顯然有一個超級惡棍藝術家的祕密社團，也只是為了穩妥起見，那裡沒有準確的日期和時間，這可能不需要說，但你知道互聯網，在這裡的拐角處，有一些適度有趣的自動售貨機，出售卡片，比如這裡有口袋妖怪卡片。

This one here sells photos of idols and he's ones here have figurines, you can actually buy figurines from a vending machine so that's a thing and that runs me of another spot that I want to pay a 12th visit to regular viewers.

這家賣的是偶像的照片，他這裡的照片有小雕像，你實際上可以從自動售貨機上買到小雕像，所以這是一件事，這讓我想到了另一個地方，我想向普通觀眾進行第12次訪問。

You'll know exactly where we're headed right now.

你會清楚地知道我們現在的方向。

This space here is the habit of strange vending machine corner, there's popcorn vending machine but you'll find some of the strangest vending machines in all of Japan here, like all these ones here have boxes with really creepy stuff written on them.

這裡的空間是奇怪的自動售貨機角落的習慣，有爆米花自動售貨機，但你會發現這裡有全日本最奇怪的自動售貨機，比如這裡所有的這些自動售貨機的盒子上都寫著非常恐怖的東西。

I came with my friend charlotte couple years back, We did a video that I'll link up above and I can barely barely squeezed through here but I'm actually surprised that this is still standing.

幾年前我和我的朋友夏洛特一起來的，我們做了一個視頻，我會把它鏈接到上面，我可以勉強從這裡擠過去，但實際上我很驚訝這裡還能站著。

This building is, this can't last much longer.

這座建築是，這不能持續太久了。

This is not a structurally secure building.

這不是一個結構安全的建築。

Look at this, This is an absolutely terrible condition.

看看這個，這絕對是一個可怕的條件。

I wouldn't be surprised if this entire thing got torn down in the next year or two.

如果這整個東西在未來一兩年內被拆掉，我也不會感到驚訝。

There's, there's no way, no.

有，沒有辦法，沒有。

Yeah.

是的。

Mhm.

嗯。

It's just got a cart back there.

它只是在後面有一個推車。

Well, it can be sad to know that so many of the places that we've grown to love will change or get torn down.

好吧，知道這麼多我們已經長大的愛的地方將改變或被拆毀，這可能是令人難過的。

For someone like me, it kind of helps to combat the complacency that comes with living somewhere so long.

對於像我這樣的人來說，這有點有助於打擊在某地生活了這麼久的自滿情緒。

You actually have to get out and enjoy places while they're still around because they won't be forever like this Lawson right here.

實際上，你必須在這些地方還在的時候出去享受，因為它們不會像這裡的勞森一樣永遠存在。

This used to be a dragon quest themed Lawson and now now it's not Japan does this a lot with products as well.

這曾經是一個以龍的追求為主題的勞森，現在不是了，日本在產品方面也經常這樣做。

I can't count how many young and they are limited edition products that I have fallen in love with over the years, just for them to disappear.

我數不清有多少年輕的，而且是限量版的產品，這些年來我已經愛上了它們，只是為了它們的消失。

Weeks later, they don't stick around for long.

幾周後，他們並沒有堅持很久。

So if you find a product that you really like get it and get a lot of it, like a few weeks ago, I did this video on Japan's most famous game center closing down and although that was the very first game center that I ever had the chance to go to in Japan.

是以，如果你找到一個你真正喜歡的產品，就去買它，而且要買很多，比如幾周前，我做了這個關於日本最著名的遊戲中心關閉的視頻，儘管那是我在日本有機會去的第一個遊戲中心。

It had been years since I went there.

我已經多年沒有去那裡了。

It just becomes all too easy to kind of fall into falling into a comfortable pattern.

它只是變得太容易陷入陷入一個舒適的模式。

Just assume that everything is gonna be there forever.

只是假設一切都會永遠在那裡。

But there's one more place that I've always wanted to check out at night in Akihabara and to do that, we're gonna need to head into some of the backstreets.

但還有一個地方，我一直想在秋葉原的晚上去看看，要做到這一點，我們需要去一些小巷子裡。

Also, Akihabara has really emptied out.

另外，秋葉原真的已經空了。

I got here kind of early tonight.

我今晚來的有點早。

So the area was still a little bit busy when I got here but it's well past midnight now and there's just, there's no one left.

所以我到這裡的時候，這個地區還有點忙，但現在已經過了午夜，只是，已經沒有人了。

I'm actually what, I've never tried to go to this place at night.

其實我是什麼，我從來沒有嘗試過在晚上去這個地方。

So I'm a little bit curious as to whether or not it's, it's even gonna be open accessible.

所以我有點好奇，它是否，它甚至會被公開訪問。

Let's go find out.

讓我們去了解一下。

Okay, so it should be just down this way and then around the corner of it.

好的，所以它應該就在這條路上，然後在它的角落裡。

Seriously, you see what I mean about all the construction always with the stairs though, if you know Akihabara, you know the area, you should have a pretty good idea of where we're heading right now.

說真的，你明白我的意思了吧，雖然所有的建築總是帶著樓梯，如果你知道秋葉原，你知道這個地區，你應該對我們現在的方向有一個很好的想法。

Yeah, look at this amazing parking job.

是的，看看這個驚人的停車工作。

This right here, this is why you don't buy a big car in Tokyo.

就在這裡，這就是為什麼你不在東京買一輛大車。

Mhm And this right here, his conduct Myojin shrine tucked right behind Akihabara and that, that is terrifying.

而這個就在這裡，他的行為明神神社就在秋葉原後面，那，那是很可怕的。

What in the world is he doing?

他到底在做什麼？

What is, nope, Okay?

什麼是，不，好嗎？

I am 100% no ping right out of here.

我是100%沒有平局的，就在這裡。

This shrine is actually a really beautiful shrine and I've always thought it would be a great place to explore at night.

這個神社實際上是一個非常漂亮的神社，我一直認為它是一個在夜間探索的好地方。

So let's take a peek.

是以，讓我們來看看。

Mm hmm.

嗯，嗯。

Mhm mhm Something so beautiful.

Mhm mhm 如此美麗的東西。

The way the shrine itself is juxtaposed against the city and it is just extrapolated at night.

神社本身與城市並列的方式，而它只是在夜間被推斷出來。

I really, I really love this space And amazingly you can actually see we're in the core of Tokyo right now and you can actually see some stars tonight.

我真的，我真的很喜歡這個空間，而且令人驚訝的是，你實際上可以看到我們現在在東京的核心地帶，你今晚實際上可以看到一些星星。

It's a nice clear night.

這是一個美好的晴朗夜晚。

This building right here is actually a multi floored performance.

這個建築就在這裡，實際上是一個多層次的表演。

All it's beautiful inside.

所有它的內部是美麗的。

I've done, show me send jobs.

我已經做了，給我看發送工作。

I think it's called Edo Culture complex.

我想它被稱為江戶文化綜合體。

This entire place is just stunning at night.

整個地方的夜景實在是太迷人了。

This is 100% made it very close to the top of my list of things that you have to do if you come out to explore Akihabara during the nighttime.

如果你在晚上出來探索秋葉原，這100%使它非常接近我必須做的事情清單的首位。

Seriously look at how much Akihabara empties out at night.

說真的，看看秋葉原在晚上有多空曠。

There's just nothing, there's nobody, it is just completely empty.

就是什麼都沒有，沒有人，就是完全空的。

But there was a lot of steps that goes around the corner and everything.

但有很多步驟，在拐角處和一切地方都有。

Oh, this right here is actually one of my favorite Akihabara spots.

哦，這裡其實是我最喜歡的秋葉原景點之一。

It's not really Akihabara, it's more near luciano Mizzou but you get to see the trains go by.

它不是真正的秋葉原，它更接近盧西亞諾-米蘇，但你可以看到火車經過。

I love it here.

我喜歡這裡。

It's 2:00 AM and I am absolutely famished.

現在是凌晨2點，我絕對是飢腸轆轆。

This is the main entrance to the museum by the way, I need to get some food And I gotta get up early tomorrow to also to the trifecta squad.

順便說一下，這是博物館的主入口，我需要去買些食物，而且我明天得早起去參加三國演義的演出。

To those of you who watch early and all the way to the end and leave me comments, let me know how, how have you been?

對於那些早早看完並一直到最後給我留言的人，讓我知道，你過得怎麼樣？

How are you doing?

你還好嗎？

I'm so glad that we got to do this today.

我很高興我們今天能做到這一點。

This has just been so much fun.

這實在是太有趣了。

說實話，謝謝你。

非常感謝您的加入。
