There is nothing interesting to see in a pachinko parlour koko, wouldn't waste a day on that. I did it once my first year in Japan, I left within the hour after sustaining drain bramage, hearing loss, olfactory infections, respiratory infections, and the total will to live. Pachinkos suck big time, but at least there's a place for many of the dead-beat losers to hang out at... I get sick just walking near those places with the smells oozing out and the noise making my ears hurt. Link to post Share on other sites
