When I moved to Odaiba and found it a real pain to cook dinner,
I sometimes go to DiverCity Tokyo .
Speaking of DiverCity, the Gundam statue is a famous symbol and tourist spot.
At night, Gundam Unicorn is lit up,
The show lasts about 5 minutes and features loud music and images projected onto buildings.
When I was watching a show with my children that was as impactful as a short movie,
My older child said, "I want to see Gundam."
I just finished watching the original Gundam the other day.
It took me about a month and a half to finish watching it because it has 43 episodes.
It is a masterpiece that remains in the history of anime in Japan and around the world,
The end credits of the final episode are very moving.
The strong personalities of the characters,
The beauty of the shapes of robots, including Gundam,
It will leave a strong impression even on people who have never seen Gundam.
Gundam has many great songs, not only in its animation but also in its theme songs.
It's easy to see why he still has so many fans around the world.
Among them, I'm sure all boys have built "Gunpla" at least once.
"Gundam Base" on the 7th floor of DiverCity
A fascinating space selling Gundam plastic models, one of the largest in the world.
If you take your kids there, you'll be extremely excited.
It's not just Gundam fans who can see all the Gundams of the past in one place.
I'm sure a lot of people will be impressed.
I left my older child wondering, "Which one should I get?"
He became so fascinated that he started looking for a Gunpla for himself.
I spent about two hours wandering around the shelves, never realizing how much fun the space was.
In the end, the older child should buy the "Gundam Mk-II".
I chose the same Gundam model that I liked the most as a child and that was the first one I bought.
It felt like a strange destiny.
Is it just like the Earth's gravity that attracts them...?
On the way home, my older child seemed very happy.
The younger child looked happy after getting Gundam chocolate instead of a Gundam model kit.
The tranquil and peaceful atmosphere reminds one of a space colony in Gundam.
The green cityscape is well-planned, the roads are wide and it isn't very crowded on weekdays.
There are also a few office buildings and research facilities,
One theory is that in the event of an emergency, Fuji TV and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building will turn into robots...
Maybe the Gundam Unicorn statue will even move...
It was a fun day that reminded me of such silly urban legends.
If you have a chance to come to Odaiba, be sure to check out the Gundam Base and the show!
