I was taught not to take any more money than you plan to spend and put an 10,000 bill in your sock in case you need to take a taxi home. Credit cards stay at home.
Roppongi has not been cleaned up, the bars (and streets) still smell of urine, and at almost all hours you can see drunks staggering around like extras from a zombie movie.

Roppongi is about as close to Tijuana as you can get in Japan, except that the prices are much higher.
