Popeye – Issue 937: Hello, Tokyo!

POPEYE magazine is the “Magazine for City Boys”.

(JAPANESE LANGUAGE ONLY)

 The founders printed this on the cover of the magazine when it debuted in 1976. What’s a “city boy”? The term doesn’t appear in the dictionary and no expert panel could define it. So we felt we should explore every aspect of what this “city boy” might be. After decades of debate, it still makes for a topic of lively discussion. It can be a style or a way of thinking. To get an idea of what makes a city boy, read POPEYE magazine.  

Popeye – Issue 937: Hello, Tokyo!

It feels like the face of the city is becoming more and more exciting again.
I've been thinking this a lot while walking around Tokyo recently.
It's true that the number of travelers from all over the world and the large number of new openings make you feel that way, but there's more to it than that.
If you break away from the ordinary perspective and sense of déjà vu and get closer to increase the resolution, or conversely, pull back and get a bird's-eye view, this changing metropolis can take on many fun faces.
But that's not just the case now, it's been that way for a long time, and I'm sure it will continue to be that way in the future.
For example, isn't it surprising that the scramble crossing in front of Shibuya Station has such a graphically cool view?
Let's take a quest through Tokyo in this way, diving deep into the light with a light-hearted gaze.
