Died Young, Stayed Pretty

I found this wounded butterfly on the ground near Ebisu station.

1:1 Gundam

Also out in Odaiba, in front of the DiverCity Tokyo shopping mall, stands a life-sized 18 meter (6 storey high) Gundam robot. As a kid having grown up watching Gundam, seeing a 'real' one made me geek out a bit. The attention to detail is impressive, and daydreaming like a little boy again about these giant robots flying around defending the Earth seemed pretty rad.

Skyline GT-R

My brother and I went out to Odaiba to check out Toyota Mega Web, a huge complex which includes a showcase of the latest and future Toyota designs, a motion simulator in the 'Mega Theater', and 'Ride One', which lets licensed drivers test drive one of the latest Toyota cars of your choice on a 1.3km course. There is also a 'History Garage', showcasing a beautiful collection of classic cars, not only Toyota. This is a super crisp looking 1970 Toyota Skyline GT-R.

Mission Control

The most advanced toilet control panel I've ever seen. And this is in a public washroom! There is even a button to play music or the sounds of birds chirping beside a river, to mask the sounds of you doing your bizness.. Even the toilet roll dispenser is well thought out, maximizing space by creating a small table to put your phone, keys, lines of blow, what have you..
