Nisei Week is an annual festival celebrating Japanese American culture and history in Little Tokyo. Nisei means 2nd gen in Japanese, describing the first American born Japanese. So at the last day of Nisei Week, they always throw a huge parade right in front of our store, like we literally have front seats every year. The streets start flooding with all kinds of people, of course predominately Japanese, but everyone is together celebrating and just having fun.
Manny made sure to put our benches outside before anyone took our spot.
Manny & Murad went around Little Tokyo to check out all of the beautiful people and festivities. There was a bunch of Anime fanatics strolling around Little Tokyo, they even dress like this when there is no special event going on.
Bunch of random things happening in the streets and even games right outside of the Hello Kitty shop. Yes there is a Hello Kitty shop located in the Japanese Plaza, so bring your daughter or wifey down.
They had fresh okonomiyaki and takoyaki being served the whole day outside of Nijiya Market, tasted almost like I was literally in Japan.
They even found time to roll by BOWLS, don't forget there just 1 street away from our shop so make sure to pay them a visit. Good Peoples!
We are officially in BACK 2 SCHOOL month, so make sure to check out all of our new arrivals daily. For new arrivals, click HERE.
Demar Derozan even came down to cop some kicks and even chop it up a little bit. I told him he needs to play for the LAKESHOW already. Look out for his track with ScHoolBoy Q.
...And you thought I was lying about a flood of people in Little Tokyo for the Nisei Parade. Heffe never lies!
Theres something wrong with this picture. Our bench is right in front, but theres a pack of senior citizens sitting on it. None of us were rude enough to kick them off so we just watched standing up. owells maybe next year!
Carl even spotted Killah Priest right across the street. Carl should of told him he needed a fresh pair of infrared 90s.
Right when we were about to CLOSE, this young lady below breaks my neck. Thanks Kathleen, and thanks Derek for supporting the shop as always! Perfect example of quality over quantity, buy what you LIKE kids. " she just shitted on 90% of cats who collect jordans" - Manny
