This board is for general discussion of Lunar. Especially things such as Lunar merchandise, general discussions about the story that span more than one game, etc.

Going to Japan in October; where to look for Lunar stuff?

Post by Nobiyuki77 »

Hello everyone! Well, after many years of dreaming and wishing, I've finally saved up enough money to take a vacation to Japan! :D I'll be going for two weeks in October, and I was wondering if anyone here's been down there and knows perhaps where I'll have the best shot of finding any cool/rare Lunar stuff/memorabilia etc.

Any help is appreciated. ^_^

Japan? Hm. Never heard of it.

But seriously, tell me where you're going and I can probably be a little more helpful. KF

Tokyo, then Kyoto, then Osaka, and wherever else falls in between those three places.

Well, I can tell you right now that most of your shopping is really going to be in Tokyo.

Why are you going to Osaka? It's a big city and all, but I can't think of anything in particular it holds as a draw for tourists. If you can, I'd skip it and go down to Hiroshima/Miyajima instead. Kyoto/Nara you should still keep, however.

The usual place to look around are the shops in Akihabara, of course. There are also some in Shibuya, Ginza (might not be what you're looking for), and maybe Harajuku.

Is there something in particular you're looking for, also? Where you might want to go depends on what you're trying to find. KF

I went to Akihabara and didn't see any Lunar stuff. However, I wasn't there for very long so if you're able to stay for awhile and dig deep you might find something.

I picked up the three volumes of the Eternal Blue novelization while I was there. If you look through used game stores, you can also find the Sega/Mega CD Lunar games.

Soundtracks are still a pain, however. I found nothing. Yahoo Japan is your only option there. KF
