Kingdom Note Fountain Pen Store--New Location in Tokyo!

I go thru and review the new Kingdom Note fountain pen store here in Tokyo. They moved from their old cramped location to a beautiful new and spacious store on one of the main streets in Shinjuku, just a 5 minute walk from the south exit of Shinjuku station.

I love these videos. They are a window into parts of Japan!

Another wonderful video of yours I just discovered. Because of you I went to Ancora and Itoya during our trip to Japan a week ago. I felt like a kid in a candy store. I'm already planning my next stops in Tokyo based on your shop videos. Thank you for sharing all that you do.☺

Thankyou - stuck in Melbourne unable to travel its great to life vicariously through you

Looks lovely! I remember my husband and I searching for their former location when we visited Tokyo. That elevator was so tiny. Glad to see they have a bigger, brighter location.

Always appreciate your windows into Tokyo life.

I LOVE your videos that show a glimpse of life in Tokyo. I've said before I cannot wait to visit once the pandemic dies down, so in the meantime I'm taking notes from your videos on all the things I want to see and do. Now the Kingdom Note store is on my list. If you ever decide to expand into more "Tokyo Lifestyle" videos, you'll have a fan and viewer in me!

Wow, that's three times the size of the original shop! Looks lovely and way easier to find.

Thanks for the video. You’ve just made me miss Tokyo a lot. Our annual visits have had to stop for a while since the pandemic. Ceramics, FPs and coffee shops all in one calming video. Thanks

This is what I love about your videos, you always have the lowdown on trivia and essential facts! I truly despise the panini if only that (and most superficially maybe) it robbed me of time to visit Japan in 2020-2021. Kissatens are some of my favourite discoveries and they seem to be a dying breed. I was researching and many recommended lists out there have many coffee shops permanently cloe in the last 3 years. SIGH. Anyway, you also best believe I'll be paying a visit to Kingdom Note when I visit in November (till then, I'll be binging your videos!) Thanks for all the juicy info!

Thank you! This was wonderfully done. And the coffee places were so nice! An actual cup and saucer! Amazing. Glad you got the pen. Very nice color. Enjoy it💖

I remember the old location. Always took me so long to find it!! But SO worth it. Always make a point to visit Itoya and KN while in Tokyo. I use my bottle of Ruri-gimi ink VERY sparingly. Hopefully I can visit the new location soon. Thanks for all your videos and stay healthy!

I'm not much of a traveler having never been overseas but even I am now visualizing myself in that store lol. This was such a great to watch this morning!!! I had my coffee with you so to speak!!!! ✒☕

Oh I love how this! All the pens and inks displayed so nicely. So tempting as well. Thanks for sharing this experience with us.

[davecharvella]

Loved it! What I wouldn't give to have a store like this near me ... OMG!

[catwhisperer]

If one day I could visit Kingdom Note I'd probably want to buy everything I see and touch there. I can only imagine what an incredible experience it must be to visit it and other equally incredible fountain pen/stationary outlets in Japan. I love how fountain pens are still very relevant in Japan today, much more so than they are here in the States I'm afraid, and how, as with so many other items made and sold there, the importance, energy and focus that is placed on their presentation, which is also reflected by the elegance of many of the retail outlets there. Thank you so much for sharing this. I enjoyed watching this very much.

I love your videos. Of course, like you I’m a fountain pen fiend, but the insight into life in Japan elevates them to another level.

[dmullins]

Thank you again for showing us, it is like a virtual tour. I always look forward to your videos, quality and content are so good!

[stampinsan]

Oh my goodness! Another reason to visit Japan. Fun video - exquisite looking store. Thanks so much, Again! That first coffee shop reminded me of one you would see in a movie set in Turkey - dark, exotic, many secrets! 😂

I love the pen-related content and I love seeing life in Tokyo. Many thanks for producing such interesting videos.
