Last summer, one morning, while passing through the Japan Rail Ueno Station, I discovered on the side of the main hall, a huge… egg:
Pokemon Egg
It was a Pokemon egg, part of the promotional campaign for the last Pokemon anime film, like the famous Yamanote Pokemon train.
Even if it was closed, the children were attracted to it like bees to honey:

… all of them quite tempting. I have to admit, me too, I bought for myself a set of Pokemon chopsticks. I know, they’re for kids, but my hand is small, so these are also a perfect fit for me… :roll:

After 6:30PM, the attendants carefully packed the items, closing it back…
