According to Google, “Shimokitazawa, or Shimokita, is a hip cultural quarter with a lingering old-Tokyo vibe. Narrow, mural-painted lanes are lined with stylish stores for vintage clothes and vinyl. Craft cafes and brewpubs host art shows and live bands, while bakeries and bistros serve inventive pastries and veggie curries. Edgy new plays debut at Honda Gekijo Theater, and young directors screen short movies at Tollywood cinema.” Odakyu is the name of the train line that goes through Shimokitazawa, and Kantō is the name of the region where Tokyo is.

Those are great photos. The pack feel like a cleaner Buenos Aires Hipstapak, specifically the Diego lens and Uchitel 20 film. The matte isn't as grungy and it's less desaturated, but the feel is similar to me.

Works for me. Definitely an improvement on last months rather lacklustre offering. I can see it will be useful as a standalone combo and mixing and matching the components. Not had a chance to try it fully yet though.

Well - the latest pak has arrived a day early due to Easter. The japanese inspired Uji pak comes with Murasaki lens and Sakura film. Unfortunately, despite Hipstas description of 'peacefil rivers', its another lemon. The Sakura film just overlays an image of what looks like a red non-slip bathmat lit from the side. The Murasaki lens doesnt bring much to the party either. One for the completist, I suspect.
