Our Metropolis Autumn Issue 2022 is out now! In this issue, we asked our writers to show us examples of love in the city and across Japan. From the hand-dug caves of Tochigi’s sake masters to the mountain trails a train ride away from Tokyo, discover this issue’s stories by picking up a magazine copy around Tokyo (locations in the link below) online.

If all that’s still not enough for you, follow us on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook for the very latest updates on our articles and Tokyo news.
