Please welcome Lord Cognito of Defining Duke and ILP fame to Sacred+. Recently, Cog traveled to Japan for nearly two weeks, and while it was actually his second trip to the country (he previously did a very brief media voyage there for Ninja Gaiden 4), it was the first one of any real substance. Now, every (especially old-school) gamer dreams of going to Japan; it's long been a rite of passage for enthusiasts from around the world. And now that Cog's spent some substantive time there, I (Colin) knew I had to pick his brain about his experience. So join us as we walk through the finer details of the Iron Lords' trip to the far east, Cog's experience in Akihabara and at Tokyo Game Show, what traveling and lodging was like, the interesting social mores and unavoidable awkward moments, the amazing food, and much more. This was a great conversation we think you're really going to enjoy.

No Dustin on this one is a shame.

Holy beefcake that thumbnail

I'm so excited about this.

Im visiting glorious Nippon in February. I'm from the UK and I'm meeting my American pal there who's flying in. These little tidbits from Cog have been very informative. I'm looking forward to listening to this

Bro, you have cannons for arms , holy shit . Good job man (I mean Cog of course lol)

Why would Dustin be on this, does he like Japan? /s Joking aside, I actually like that this is a 1-on-1 conversation. Colin is a good interviewer, and I'm sure he'll ask good questions of Cog. It's nothing against Dustin, but we've heard him speak about Japan alot. And it's just logical that in a 3 man podcast, each person will speak a bit less than in a 2 man podcast. And in this particular episode, I want to hear from Cog and his experience the most

Its crazy that its Japanese culture not to interfere with someone groping on the train

I loved hearing about this trip, Cog!! I want to visit Japan so bad, it’s nice to live vicariously through this podcast lmao. As a Yankee fan it’s insane that you got to see Tanaka pitch. I’d have lost my mind seeing that, and with Aaron Judge appearing on the Jumbotron to congratulate him. Awesome stuff.

Cog got that aura in the thumbnail 🥶

Loved this episode, Dustin must’ve been busy

Tekken 7 sold 10M copies, I’m sure SF6 will too.

Sami Rocklynn

This was such an amazing episode. Thanks guys!👊

I never listen to Defining Duke because I'm not too interested in Xbox news but I love it when Cog shows up on other shows here! Always positive vibes!

Devon

Love this style of episode!

Spencer Smith

Cog is an absolute unit.

Colin, a bunch of those consignment-style shops are still around in Akihabara. One of the easiest to find (and most popular) is Akihabara Radio Kaikan. It’s basically seven floors of retail and consignment shops right outside Akihabara Station. It’s super dope!

Stephen

Damn, makes me want to go back!

Colin is goated for that Pocari Sweat reference. I just got back from a two week trip in Japan last Sunday and I must’ve drank a dozen of those things.
