How will those giants appear on stage?
At the Japan tour in January this year,
The latest technology, singing, dancing, and action are so amazing that the venue is full! I'm already excited!
And I'm happy that New York, the home of musicals, was chosen for their first overseas performance.
Japanese pop culture and anime are very popular in New York these days, so I'm sure the event will be packed with people of all races and generations.
Furthermore
People who like dancing and singing
People who live in the New York entertainment industry
I was filled with a new sense of pride and curiosity about performing in America not traditional art but modern, made-in-Japan art.
The atmosphere at the venue will be amazing

<Finally! The end of the MetroCard>
The symbol of New York, the yellow subway ticket
MetroCard sales will end at the end of this year
Scheduled to end in 2023 but delayed due to COVID-19
The MetroCard shows no signs of disappearing despite warnings that it will soon be gone.
It's a big vending machine
You can only purchase one at a time (you can't choose the number)
Although it is a large vending machine, it is often unavailable. Currently, only cash is accepted. Currently, no change is given. Currently, cash is not accepted.
The card I just bought can't be used because of a magnetic problem.
Even if there is a problem, the staff at the booths can't do anything and just hand you an envelope and have to file a complaint with the operating company (= travelers have no choice but to accept it).
There were various problems
32 years since its introduction in 1993
It will play a vital role as a symbol of New York.
This yellow design is used for various anniversaries and campaigns.
Tiffany Blue, rapper Biggie, musicals,
etc.
It was a limited edition and I was looking forward to it.
Going forward, the system will be unified into the contactless Tap & Go style "OMNY" that was introduced in 2019.
We live in a convenient age where you can use your credit card or smartphone without prior registration (plastic OMNY cards can also be purchased from vending machines).
For about 50 years since 1953

1993: Yellow MetroCard takes over
After 32 years, its role came to an end.
The first token costs 15 cents, currently 2.90 USD per ride
It feels about 20 times older.
A valid metro card
Available until the end of 2026

< Eat $1 cake in NY! >
In addition to the weak yen, prices are high!
" New York is surprised.
However, if you look around, you can find plenty of cheap and delicious restaurants.
One of the charms of New York.
After all, there are a lot of shops.
The first one is the famous "$1 pizza"!
The price has been increased reluctantly due to post-coronavirus inflation
Nowadays, "$1.50 pizza" has become mainstream.
Still, $1.50
It's cheap and the slices are American size, so each one is big.
It's a New York specialty after all.
⚫️ The famous "2 Bros Pizza" has 8 stores in Manhattan ↓

⚫️ There is also "1 Dollar Pizza" at 748 9th Ave (between 50th and 51st Streets)
All of this in New York, where prices are constantly rising.
There are some popular restaurants that have maintained their traditional prices and still offer meals for just $1.
Kam Hing Bakery's $1 cake!
Of course,
It is located in the food town of Chinatown.
address
118 Baxter Street
A local Chinese American restaurant is crowded with customers from the moment it opens for business for its "Dollar Cakes."
