Great photos! Sounds like you had a wonderful time. I really want to go back… it’ll probably be so different now. My last time was back in 2009, and I didn’t even know what a smartphone was!

I’m jealous! It’s been almost 20 years for me! Will you be visiting any LiT spots?

One of them sold, the other is still available:

Just in case anyone is interested, I'm selling a few rare LiT items (just have too many collectibles at this point!), they're on eBay if anyone wants a look.

I do! LiT is definitely nostalgic for me, watching it brings back the less fast-paced, less instant, less chronically online society of now (I sound old, so yeah, maybe it's just that I was young!). I haven't been back to Japan since 2009, and I wonder how much it would still feel special to me, if ...

....who's going to Tokyo this year???

I wish! Maybe next year

Just watched on the plane back from the US.

The band Keep Shelly in Athens did a cover in 2011/12, maybe that's it?

Yes, Kevin Shields. I still love this soundtrack so much.

I was listening to music on shuffle and I thought, why not log in to this forum again, as I did, 'Goodbye' from the LiT soundtrack came on

Really interesting, thanks for sharing

I'd love to see more

I can't wait for this... the other two are my favourite films beside LiT. Which is your favorite? I like before sunset more. (Probably down to even that final line.) Have you seen the newest since this post and does it hold up to the others? I'm not sure... though I'd probably say Sunset if I had t...

Oops, since I posted this last year I moved it over to Tumblr instead.

I'm pretty sure that's the booklet from the Japanese DVD. Mine looks the same.

I also like to watch it very late at night. In fact I don't think I've ever watched it in the day. I also watched it the day before going to Japan (both times) and the day after I returned... it's a weird thing, I felt like I needed to be absorbed in it, before I went, to prepare and after I returne...

I'd definitely go over to Odaiba. Shinjuku might still have lights up. Tokyo Tower will also probably be lit up for New Years. Also, try and visit the Meiji Shrine in Harajuku on New Year's Eve, it's one of the big things to do to ring in the new year. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiji_Shrine It wi...

Thanks!

Good luck I'm hoping to do the same when I graduate too.

I'm not sure if anyone is interested but I've recently started a blog about Japan. I'm posting random things of interest/news and my photos from my trips a few years ago. Either way, I hope someone might stop by and give me a comment!
