I heard "Warhammer", "cafe", and "Japan", and my mind went into a totally different direction because themed cafes in Japan have ruined me. I was expecting drinks being served by Sisters of Battle, a Commissar being assigned to your table making sure you aren't ordering anything heretical. A Guardswoman spending time with you and talking about her battle exploits while she's on leave. I wasn't expecting a store with an actual cafe.
Its pretty much exactly like the Warhammer Citadel stores in Dallas and LA, which is also just a big gw store with a coffee shop in it, which they mention in the video
I feel bad for not watching as much beavs as I used to, this channel has such a special place in my heart. Excellent little vid tho, ask my Warhammer friends more about the lore now
Same and i may have missed some of beavers videos.. shame since i was doing lots of school work and stuff but rn everytime i watch his videos it always brings me joy 😊
Ive very recently got into the hobby and honestly its the best thing ive ever done. Ive made friends that are into the hobby themselves. I did be a bit stupid and bought pretty much every Seraphon related box out there so i have 100+ models to paint but i love it, plus you kinda got me into it when i watched you streamed painting your models. So thank you James for this amazing passion you helped me discover.
@@Syreave yeah man, I can't wait to get all the new models aswell, I've asked my local store manager if I can have first pick of them. Haha it's gonna be an expensive day when they get released
this is honestly so cool, I wish i could go here, the amount of detail in the drinks and the terrain in the glass cases. also a very nice paint job beaver.
As Nottingham born and bred. I drive past Games Workshop Headquarters every day for work. It's so nice to see this little company from humble beginnings slowly taking over the world 🌎...This is such a cool shop! I need to make an Imperial guard with Robin Hood.
As someone who has been doing it for almost 2 decades, the precision you think you need to do it is likely a misconception. Sure, you can get into the fine details like eyes if you want to, but If it looks good from an arm's length away, you're fine.
Its honestly easier than you think, as someone with shaky hands and horrible art skills. I love to paint minis! Espicially since it really just comes down to technique and what colors you use. There are plenty of super easy tutorials that give you good guides on how to make your models look pro. Things like washes and the new contrast paints do alot of the heavy lifting.
Love Japan, but boy do they do racism even more powerfully than America.. if you don’t look Japanese you are referred to as “foreigner”… imagine just saying you look “unamerican” to people at Walmart, it’s exactly the same and it’s brutal I’d assume, although I’m not American and am just going off of social media.
I got into Warhammer because of you and I finally bought some necrons not to long ago, so this is a perfect video after I think 1-2 years since your first Warhammer video. Great videos as usual, keep up the good work!
Love the variety that this channel has always held. In between Jurassic World The Game videos and various dinosaur related videos.. you get these little gems that bring a sparkle to this channel.
Still waiting for the "Imperial Knight Maid Cafe" experience, just like the meme; *[CRASH CRASH CRASH CRASH] "Okaerinasaimase, goshujinsama!! Welcome to the Knight Cafe!!" [IMPOSSIBLY LOUD WARHORN BLASTS]*
Hey beaver idk if you were aware but the isle was adding three new dinosaurs at once, it was ceratosaurus, troodon, and some kind of small therizinosaurus looking thing
Awesome to see this! Back in 2005-2006 I used to go into the store in Nakano for the odd game. I'm glad to see the game's still alive and well in Nihon.
this is super cool, even tho i am still on the fence with warhammer and they're over priced plastic, this does look like a cool shop to just walk around in and get a drink
The only thing that would make this place absolute perfection would be women dressing as sisters of battle serving the drinks or guys dressed as space marines serving the drinks or even better people dressed as tech priests serving the drinks
BEAVER PLEASE PLAY RAIN WORLD, with that said you are my childhood entertainment and I remember watching you all the time when I was younger and now I would really like to see you play rain world so, thank you for your time.
The best thing about Warhammer in Akihabara, is if you go to Radio Kaikan, you can buy their Warhammer products slightly cheaper if you have a foreign passport. If you don't, you get the same absurd prices as everywhere else in the world!
Oh wow!! Love that place! I visited there June 2023! One of the nicest game shops I've ever been to! We hunted down a few other Warhammer shops around Tokyo! Incredible terrain that's ready to use and a lot of customers! Awesome video!
GW next move is to break into the Asian Markets further They already Dominate the west and 4OK has seen a popularity rise in Japan Its not unexpected, its the next logical step for the company
As someone whose home store is the LA Warhammer Cafe, was very cool to see the differences. Both are awesome but the extra touches in Japan - and the space, really take it over the top. Crazy cool!
- That there is the painting area and this is the area for the newcomers to experience the hobby for the first time. - But Mike this is the Cashier machine - Blinks
you know a really fun gimmick for a warhammer cafe would be to have corpse starch as a food item- and it could be something like pemmican lol. would be fun to try out especially in a little corpse starch container
Man, I remember when there was only one GW in the whole of Japan. I bought a baneblade there for 80 bucks. I thought it was crazy expensive but worth it.
I love how the Japanese Warhammer world has a café instead of a pub, if anyone has been to wh world Nottingham recently there is a hot wing challenge where you can win a badge
I love this hobby and I LOVE watching your videos I wish I could go there please make more videos about painting warhammer your videos are great keep mmaking more
All of my favorite youtubers of now and past are popping up with these warhammer videos. Bricky, Necrit, moist critical and now Beaver. And I have never been so happy.
I was there last week. The salesman there was excellent, he could speak English (assumably) natively and he talked our ears off for about an hour about anything we wanted to know
I have grown up watching him and I love that some how I have ended up back on his RU-vid channel because my recent love of warhammer hobby but it does make me feel old 😅
Is it cheaper there or the same? I was in Japan back in April but wasn't able to go since I was only there for a few days. I'm planning on checking it out next year!
Someone I know went to Tokyo and wanted specifically to go to this shop after seeing this video. Was extremely disappointed. Was only one guy sitting behind the counter, never even spoke to them or acknowledge they were there, and the cafe/milkshakes bench was closed. So sad.
