And I have day 2 results! I must say, this time was a LOT harder. I went to Harajuku... and lets just say this was the first time my counting actually distracted me quite a bit. Safe to say, there were lots. And I mean lots.

Oh, I'll put my notes before the results this time, because they're the things that people may be interested in and discuss

Notes:
- A lot of people I counted, at least over half, had a Japanese/Asian boyfriend/girlfriend with them, or were being accompanied by a Japanese/Asian person. Is this more common than I thought... do a lot of people only come to Japan because their Japanese partner wants to, and has heritage here?
- There was a cult there... something like a 'Krishna' thing lol
The guy who came up to me seemed extremely weird (not denying I may be to lol), saying 'if you chant what's written on this card every night, good fortune will come to you' and 'he has many names, he is the almighty Krishna!' They had a band playing African instruments and everything too.

Day 2
Harajuku
Between 3pm and 10pm


Individuals: 320, 6 confirmed Americans

Groups: 207

Woah, when I see the overall number it seems a lot smaller than I thought it would be. It seemed a lot more at the time.
