Guys, I've decided that I'm going to take a more direct and honest approach with you, my viewers. And part of that real talk has to do with something most Youtubers are not that willing to talk about - money.
The thing with Youtube ad-revenue is that it really doesn't make channels money, and the only way smaller channels can earn an income worth the time spent making videos is with lots of low quality content, or sponsored content.
Thus, I started Patreon to help with the costs of producing these videos. There's a few costs like: travelling around Tokyo, entrance fees and the cost of my time (hundreds of hours scripting, shooting, editing).
A lot of my fellow YouTuber friends are using Patreon so that their audience can support them directly. I would LOVE to make working on this channel my full-time job, so If you feel that my content is worth it then please have a look at my Patreon page and help me grow TheTokyo Drew community.
Let's make awesome vids together:

- STATION LAYOUT
Ikebukuro Station has two main entrances, the East exit and the West exit. There are a number of other secondary entrances such as the JR North exit, the various Seibu exits, and multiple subway exits.
The JR lines run north/south through the center. The Tobu platforms are to the northwest and the Seibu platforms are to the southeast. Both Tobu and Seibu operate department stores adjacent to their terminal stations. (Despite their names, Seibu (西武) starts with the kanji for west (西), but its platforms are in the eastern part of the station, while Tōbu (東武) starts with the character for east (東), but its platforms are in the western part of the station.)

- HISTORY:
The station was opened on April 1, 1903 by the Japanese Government Railways (JGR). The Tōjō Railway Line (present-day Tobu Tojo Line) station opened on 1 May 1914 with the opening of the 33.5 km line to Tanomosawa (田面沢駅) in Saitama Prefecture (located between the present stations of Kawagoeshi and Kasumigaseki).[6] As the Tokyo terminus of the line was originally planned to be at Shimo-Itabashi, Ikebukuro Station is to this day marked by km post -1.9 (the distance from Shimo-Itabashi Station where the 0 km post for the line is located).
Tobu opened a department store adjoining its station on 29 May 1962. Around the same time, the Tobu station platforms were expanded with three tracks.
In March 1992, automatic ticket barriers were installed at the north exit of the Tobu Station, and in June of the same year, the Tobu Department Store was expanded with the addition of the Metropolitan Plaza annex located on the south side.
In June 2008, the Tobu station ticket barriers were colour-coded into three zones: North, Central, and South.
Chest-height platform edge doors were installed on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line platforms in January 2011.

Why should you go to Ikebukuro?
First of all, what is Ikebukuro? It's one of the major city centers of Tokyo. It's famous for its anime shops and restaurants. You'll find many shops here, including an Animate, large department stores and the largest Pokémon store of Japan. You'll also find an aquarium in Sunshine City, a big mall full of restaurants, shops, and other attractions. It can be reached by using the famous Yamanote line, but is also very accessible by other forms of transport since Ikebukuro station is huge. The nightlife of Ikebukuro is also very large, with hundreds of small bars and restaurants ready to serve you!
Sites of named locations in the video:
- J World (small amusement park consisting of attractions based of several Shonen Manga)
- Sunshine City ( big mall with tons of shops, restaurants and activities!)
- Animate (big shop for anime merch and cosplays)
- Uniqlo (chain store where you can find stylish clothes for a reasonable prize)
Handy links:
- Mos Burger (Japanese Burger chain with relatively healthy burgers which are delicious!)
- Book-Off (chain store for cheap secondhand books, movies, and CDs)
- Family Mart (biggest conbini, convenience store, chain in Japan) (although if you want to withdraw money, I suggest using a 7-eleven ATM if you have a foreign card, you pay a smaller fee here)
- JR Transport (JR provides many lines that cross Ikebukuro which are extremely accessible. before visiting Japan make sure to get a Japan Railpass, there is a big chance that it's cheaper!)
- Tokyo Metro (a different prover of Lines in Tokyo, often times cheaper than JR but they don't go as far because the lines are limited to Tokyo)
Why did I make this video?
This video was made as part of the AY Project for my EF Education in Japanese, although this version is slightly edited (all Japanese text was translated into English). Me and my classmates went to Ikebukuro and got to experience how much fun it was for ourselves. We wanted to give people who are doing research on what to visit a quick impression of what Ikebukuro is and what you can do here. I hope this video is helpful to you!

Ikebukuro Station (池袋駅 Ikebukuro-eki) is a major railway station located in the Ikebukuro district of Toshima, Tokyo, Japan, shared by East Japan Railway Company (JR East), Tokyo subway operator Tokyo Metro, and the two private railway operators Seibu Railway and Tobu Railway. With 2.71 million passengers on an average daily in 2007, it is the second-busiest railway station in the world (after Shinjuku Station), and the busiest station in the Tobu, Seibu, and Tokyo Metro networks. It primarily serves commuters from Saitama Prefecture and other residential areas northwest of the city centre. It is the Tokyo terminal of the Seibu Ikebukuro Line and the Tobu Tojo Line.
- STATION LAYOUT
Ikebukuro Station has two main entrances, the East exit and the West exit. There are a number of other secondary entrances such as the JR North exit, the various Seibu exits, and multiple subway exits.
The JR lines run north/south through the center. The Tobu platforms are to the northwest and the Seibu platforms are to the southeast. Both Tobu and Seibu operate department stores adjacent to their terminal stations. (Despite their names, Seibu (西武) starts with the kanji for west (西), but its platforms are in the eastern part of the station, while Tōbu (東武) starts with the character for east (東), but its platforms are in the western part of the station.)
The Marunouchi Line and Yurakucho Line run east/west two stories underground, while the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line is four stories underground to the west of the main station complex. The latter line runs south toward Shinjuku and Shibuya along Meiji-dori, and offers through services to Motomachi-Chūkagai Station in Yokohama via the Tokyu Toyoko Line and Minatomirai Line.
Tokyo Metro's Echika underground mall is also located inside the station.
- HISTORY:
The station was opened on April 1, 1903 by the Japanese Government Railways (JGR). The Tōjō Railway Line (present-day Tobu Tojo Line) station opened on 1 May 1914 with the opening of the 33.5 km line to Tanomosawa (田面沢駅) in Saitama Prefecture (located between the present stations of Kawagoeshi and Kasumigaseki).[6] As the Tokyo terminus of the line was originally planned to be at Shimo-Itabashi, Ikebukuro Station is to this day marked by km post -1.9 (the distance from Shimo-Itabashi Station where the 0 km post for the line is located).
Tobu opened a department store adjoining its station on 29 May 1962. Around the same time, the Tobu station platforms were expanded with three tracks.
In March 1992, automatic ticket barriers were installed at the north exit of the Tobu Station, and in June of the same year, the Tobu Department Store was expanded with the addition of the Metropolitan Plaza annex located on the south side.
In June 2008, the Tobu station ticket barriers were colour-coded into three zones: North, Central, and South.
Chest-height platform edge doors were installed on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line platforms in January 2011.
