2 days? Probably better off in Roppongi. If you had more time then you could probably try Yokohama. How's you're Japanese? You doing day / night game?
Post up at a hotel next to the bars you've already been to.

I could do three days if needed. Im on standby tickets. My japenese is nonexistent. Mostly night game. Yeah i guess roppongi would be the easiest.

I know many people slag Roppongi because that's where all the tourist hunters are, but what does a typical Japanese girl who goes there look like? Anyone have any pictures?

No such thing as typical, you'll see a variety of japanese girls there most speak some english. Roppongi has lots of foreigners i gamed some colombian and canadian chicks there. I'll try and post a pic later.

The Japanese in the area tend to be a bit below average for Japanese, as those are the ones who tend to like foreigners, study abroad and learn English, but the Western girls in the area are above average.

Agreed. Also Roppongi is huge and has a lot going on besides the gaijin draw club area.

Personally I like the Hills and Hiro-o area. As memcpy already mentioned, get a good hotel in a good spot, post up there and hit the lounges in and around the hotel (assuming you are going to be at a western style hotel).

Too bad, it sounds like Alife is closed. When I was back in 2011 that place was almost too easy.

Forget Yokohama. Unless you know a local. Even then......

Alife closing? That is horrible news. Can someone that can read Japanese translate that page?

The cops shut alife down. clubs are not allowed to operate past 1am by law.(they also arrested the owner)

Of course there are many clubs that do it anyway. . .

You'd have to use your head to figure out how they do it.

Where did you hear this? Almost nothing in Tokyo closes at 1am (usually 4 or 5 am). Found this online:

A-life has had some licencing trouble recently and it’s owner was arrested. It is not licenced as a club, only a bar/cafe (!) so there will be a stop on dancing.

I remember there being a no dancing sign in Alife last time I was there a few months ago, but just figured the sign was lost in translation.

Japanese police are notorious for selective enforcement. Someone probably forgot to pay their monthly bribe.

Alife is now Brand Tokyo. There's a high turnover for clubs here..

Vanity is now V2, there's some newcomers like Hive and Berg & West and a couple more.

But yeah, no place like roppongi for guys who don't speak J. Unfortunately that isn't where the hottest chicks are..

I had read a lot of good things about Alife in older Tokyo threads. How do Brand Tokyo, V2, etc compare to their predecessors?

Who's in tokyo? looking for wings, PM if interested.

Post: #16

Haven't been to Brand actually, get most of my chicks on the street these days - cheaper, easier on the sleep schedule, and hotter chicks by far.

V2 can be good on weekdays, like Thursday.. But chicks are free which means absolutely no loyalty to the venue
