😆🌈This is one of the legendary threads from 2 Chan.

1 (OP) :

Wow ~~~ amazing...

2: 

Where is it? 

3 (OP): 

I forgot to look up the name of the place 

4:

Yes it looks amazing but where is it

5:

Wow ~~

6(OP):

And it's snowing! 

7:

No wonder it feels so cold ~~

8:

Which ward? 

(Note: there are 23 wards in Tokyo. See Wikipedia )Also see the guide to the 23 City Wards of Tokyo)

9:

I think it's Taishakuten of Shibamata

(Links: Visiting Traditional Japan in the heart of Tokyo ,

Shibamata Taishakuten, Tokyo -- Temple surrounded by nostalgic atmosphere)

10 (OP): 

>>9 

That's probably it

11 (OP): 

It's taking me so much time to post these because of the upload limit

12: 

Shibamata? The place is almost part of Chiba.

(Note: Chiba is a prefecture adjacent to Tokyo)

13 (OP) :

14 (OP) : 

There was a cat there

15:

Kawaii

16:

I love kanban neko like them

(Note: Kanban neko literally means a signboard cat. If the cat belongs to a shop, it means the cat is like a mascot of the shop.)

17 (OP): 

18 (OP):

I don't know what this one is, but I stroked its feet just in case 

(Note: in shrines and temples, they sometimes have statues that are said to bring you good luck when you stroke them.)

19:

>>18

Puzzling 

21:

>>18

Isn't this Kin-san of Toyama?

(Note: Kin-san is a legendary figure from the Edo period who was a government official but lived among the commoners and helped them. See Wikipedia)

22: 

>>21

Are you dumb? It's Tora-san...

(Note: Tora-san is the main character of a famous film series "It's tough being a man." See Wikipedia)

20:

You really are a country bumpkin LOL 

23 (OP):

I've come to a soba-ya (Note: a noodle shop).

24: 

Isn't it too early to go there? 

(Note: you would normally go to such a shop only at lunchtime or dinner time. The OP is posting this in the morning, just before 10 am.)

25 (OP):

>>24 

I got up early so it can't be helped

The so-called Shibamata Deep-Fry was good ( school child reaction)

 (Note: School child reaction (Konami-kan) was a popular internet slang at the time and describes an awkward and uninteresting way of reacting.) 

26: 

You haven't taken the picture of it!

27 (OP):

>>26 

I've forgotten to take it... 

28:

There seems to be less people in Tokyo than I expected. Have many of them gone back home? 

(Note: this thread appeared on 31st December, and many people who originally came from the countryside would have gone back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year.) 

29:

There is nothing to see in Shibamata

30 (OP):

Here it comes

31:

>>30

Looks good

33:

>>30

WHAT!? 

You are not alone? 

35: 

>>33

Could be their boyfriend (who cares)

32:

Why don't you go to Skytree? You aren't far from there

(Note: Tokyo Skytree is the tallest structure in Japan. See Wikipedia.)

34:

Kamo banban

(Note: they probably meant a kamo nanban, a noodle dish with duck meat. See Wikipedia.)

36: 

You dare to go travelling with several people even though you are an On-J resident!? 

(Note: On-J is a Jikkyo Board (live commentary Board) in Open 2 channel.)

37:

The table is too small for two people... Don't you think?

38 (OP):

The soba was superb!

(Note: the signboard says "Soba Dokoro," literally meaning a soba place. It's a traditional way of saying a soba shop) 

39:

Since when? 

(Note: I think they meant "since when the OP has been with someone else?")

41:

He is not traveling alone? (Confused) 

42(OP):

Looks so forlorn... 

43(OP):

Now I am at a place called Yamamoto-Tei

(Links:

Yamamoto-Tei, Tokyo -- Traditional-style house with a garden.)

44:

A beautiful garden

45(OP):

47 (OP):

A mysterious looking Western-style room.

65:

Can someone explain what this is

66:

>>48

This is bothering me

67:

>>48

This turn of events could have been something out of Gag Manga Biyori. LOL 

(Note: the title of a manga series. See Wikipedia.)

70:

>>48

So what was it in the end?

93:

>>48

Creepy as hell.

(Note: another prefecture adjacent to Tokyo)

55 (OP):

57:

60:

I wonder where the OP is now

63:

Deeply disturbing

71:

Creepy

75:

Why did he disappear so suddenly, without finishing the thread? 

76:

We must not let this incident sink into oblivion 

77: 

You guys are overthinking.

He said it was just a friend 

82:

I wonder what it really was?
