Our last day included two tasks: attending UnrealFest and visiting CyberConnect. After a semi-late start at 10 AM, we were able to get into UnrealFest, which I had been promoted from the waitlist the day before. Unfortunately, today was also the day of the typhoon, dooming rain upon us.

UnrealFest had a lot of cool games, though I had to admit it after my feud with UE5 during the Game Jam. It was a little difficult at times learning how to play the game because most of them were in Japanese, but I had fun nonetheless.

Afterwards, Brody, Esther, Maddy, and I found a soba place where I was able to order and absurd amount of so a for around 1000 yen – it was so much that I couldn’t finish it, and that’s saying something. Then, we went to Radio Kaikan for some last minute gift shopping.

We met back up with everyone around 2:30 PM to say goodbye to Toshi – probably the saddest part of the trip. He walked us to the subway, where we parted our ways as he went back home and we went to the CyberConnect studio.

We had a small introduction to the studio by their PR manager, and a cool tour that included seeing a lot of anime and manga spread about their many shelves. After CyberConnect, we were officially done with our Japan trip agenda and were free to spend the rest of our last day how we chose. Brody and I, who were exhausted after the whirlwind of activities in these last weeks, just decided to get dinner and rest in our room.
