[and yet! Akira isn't offering to go with him, though. they did just meet, and that might be a bit too forward for what is just a casual first conversation]

Central Street near the Shibuya crossing is a good place to start. It has shops, an arcade, and a nice diner where I got to study on rainy days.

I like to go to Ichigaya to fish, but only at night. The Sky Tower is in Asakusa, and that's always worth paying a visit. There's a museum in Ueno I go to, and a planetarium in Ikebukuro. Shinjuku and Harujuku are worth a visit if you like seedy late-night bars and shopping.

[let's see. . . where else? Kou may get the feeling that Akira is the type to get out a lot]

Ah-- right. Then there's Dome Town, which is an amusement park near Odaiba. And my favorite ramen shop is in Ogikubo.
