Before dwelling longer on the hidden reign of the Japanese metropolises, it is necessary to make some further introductions.
‍
Ohayo*! Citizens, you stylish, dynamic, eccentric and festive people, you hedonists among hedonists in traditional costumes, secular overalls or designer suits, you who live to the still festive rhythm of the seasons.
‍
A perpetual vibration in an unequalled human flow, Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto now form a coastal conurbation with a growing promiscuity, without being frightening, nor frankly oppressive.

This plethora soon embraced an ephemeral architecture with a changing character, not to say pleasantly discordant. It stretches quite naturally, through innumerable microcosms and modules as close as possible to your kitchen or your living room, thus granting you that much desired intimacy as well as the comfort of voices that have become customary through habit or solitude.

For if the numbers can melt you into a sweet and voluntary banality, it might occur that they can definitively outrun you, leaving you on the platform long after the last subway. The journey continues from now on in the heart of these lanes and truculent arteries, meanders without end nor order, which will begin in Tokyo, legitimate and irrefutable daughter of Edo, to cross then Japan.

This first meeting, somewhat arranged, will be attired for you in a sensual evening dress lending itself to marivaudage and why not to amorous preliminaries... If the mystery to come will be translated by tints essentially borrowed from dreams, Metropolitizen must already bring a light inflection in this direction. An additional voice, in the flow of the now familiar sounds and perfumes, will be added in this composition in the making.

Shinjuku, central city district of the capital, will be your starting point where you will be accompanied by its first anonymous. She will know, I am sure, how to guide you in the soft labyrinth of these cities and to carry you with her determined step in the folds of your imagination, memories or dreams.
