Shibuya Calling

Shibuya churns through hype cycles—a new shop opens, you either catch it or you don’t, everyone’s looking for what comes next. I went to Banny’s opening near Meiji-jingumae mostly just because I was around.

It’s the kind of place you’d expect—mix of vintage and new clothes, magazines, sneakers, bags, and for some reason toothpaste. Beer and pizza from the family mart next door. Just people hanging out. No attempt to be cooler than it actually is.

No idea if it lasts. That night, it worked.
