Last year back before COVID and the pandemic, I visited the Marvel bar that Ruka works at and got to play my Terrace House inspired card game with some fans.

  • I met the guy that ran the Tokyo viewing party
  • Met a bunch of cool TH fans and played my game with them
  • Talked about the TH NYC viewing party group
  • Met some TH members

Here are the pictures —

Me, my girlfriend, and the owner of the bar. Faces pixelized for privacy. (note: Japan loves pixelizing so when in Rome…)
The sign outside that lets you know only good vibes are allowed inside. OG BGND watchers will know what “vibes” mean ;)
Playing the card game I made that was inspired by Terrace House. Sorry for the potato quality, if you want to see better pictures of the game, check it out on sharehomethegame.com
Some awesome toys/collectibles that are on display. Can you name them all?
The owner let us try on his mask collection. We are huge Marvel fans so this was amazing.
It’s not a Marvel bar without some Marvel goods :) Also raising your middle finger towards the camera apparently means “I wish you many good fortunes in your upcoming struggles” in Japanese culture. I just made that up so don’t go doing that like some idiot gaijin

Also if you liked the humor above, here’s a shameless self plug for a small Instagram series of posts I did in a similar style.

More goods on display
Even more goods on display
Chatted with Ruka on Instagram afterwards :)
