TOKYO'S BEST STATIONERY STORE: 'Cute Things From Japan'

"Cute Things From Japan" is a cozy stationery store on the South West side of Tokyo and is arguably the best stationery store in Tokyo. It has a large curated collection of stationery, not only from Japan, but all around Asia. I show you how to get there from Tokyo station, show you around the store and explain why it is, if not the best stationery store in Tokyo, then at least the most fun!

Just want to tell you that the style and pace of your videos is something I cannot find anywhere else :) please don’t stop making them :D

Another top notch video. One of the best channels in the business.

When I visit Japan, I'm going to take an empty suitcase with me! LOL

I found your channel recently and became a follower. I likewise have developed ... rekindled, actually ... my love for stationery, fountain pens, and inks. My husband and I are hoping to come back to Japan for our 50th wedding anniversary next year, and I hope some of the stores you've shared will still be in operation. The last time we were there was prior to my rekindling which only happened about 2 months ago. Your videos are so lovely and informative. Thank you for sharing them.

This is such a relaxing video to watch - Just what I was looking for this weekend to de-stress. I’m a stationery fan by proxy - don’t really know what to do with stickers. BUT I love to use fountain pen and ink.

❤ your channel! Thanks for all your hard work & sharing the beauty & uniqueness of Japan!

[marilyngardner]

All of your tours of Japanese sights and locales are such a delight. Cute Things from Japan is like a little treasure box stuffed with temptations. It would be such a fun place to visit. Thanks for sharing the experience, and all the best in the new year.

That pen is adorable! I hope to one day visit Japan- I love all things stationary and pens and have since I was very young! This looks like a store I would love to visit, looks so homey and welcoming ❤️ I love the specialty ink and how each highlights a local specialty, very cool!

Miss visiting Japan so Love their stationary shop and handcraft shop

This is the first video I watch of yours, but I'm subscribing straight away. I am also checking out cute things from Japan at the moment and I'm surprised at how affordable shipping is to Spain! I was looking at the site out of curiosity thinking that imported goods would be too costly in shipping but I might actually order from them

[charissau]

What a delightful pause in my day, this last day of the year. Thank you for taking us with you on your stationery adventures with your signature style and grace. 🎉

Nice to finally get a proper tour of the Cute Things From Japan store. I watched another youtubers visit about a month ago, He was just there to buy Travelers Company stationary and some of the Travelers limited edition stuff, making me want to see more of the store. So a big Thank You

I love your videos, your editing, your photography. It's like taking a deep breath and it made me feel more ready for the new year. I wish you a happy new year full of wonderful things. Thank you!❤

i still have an obsession with "starter" or what i call, "pencil case" fountain pens. it started when i was in second grade and never left me. i adore, collect and use any and all vintage plastic fp's from the 80's. Those Sizzle Stix🔥 There's no hope for me. lol

[playthinksfuncreations]

I loved how detailed and informative your videos are. ❤

I had a chance to meet Erik at the San Francisco pen show this past August 2023z

[alexanderminuzzo]

Beautiful video, as always. Thank you.

[nommh]

And there goes one of my New Year‘s resolutions before I had even realised how badly I needed to formulate it. The beauty of the things you show and the beautiful way you do it are always something else. So there I was stopping the video and searching for the online shop while you were still on the journey to it… Have a great 2024!

[VAitken]

Thank you for all the wonderful videos in 2023 😊
