Sentries


Japanese Warrior Armor

Went out for sushi on Wednesday evening in the hotel next to the office here in Tokyo and had to walk past this trio on the way to the toilets. I've always been a little uncomfortable walking past suits of armor, having to discretely double check that there really is no one inside and looking over my shoulder to see if they are following me once I pass them. It turns out that after a long day and a couple of glasses of sake it's easier to believe my paranoia is real.

These guys are perched at the top of an escalator in front of the lifts that take you to gym. It's like they stand guard in case anyone who is actually staying at a different hotel should pretend to be staying here so they can sneak in and use the gym in this hotel every morning. It's a shame they're only really scary at night.

... not everyone can pull off wearing Orange but Connor Kirchman, like myself, is one of them.
