Or two. December 23, 2005. I was looking for a stuffed totoro for my infant nephew, so naturally I went to Edgewater, where the last remnant of the Japanese occupation of the economic bubble exists in the form of the Mitsuwa complex (formerly Yaohan). Seriously, in the '70s and '80s, there used to be tons of Japanese families in the area because Japanese companies sent their workers to New York and housed them in New Jersey.
It has a sweet location right on the water with skyline views of New York City across the Hudson River.

did you ever get that totoro for your nephew??
No, they were too expensive, I concluded. So I settled for a cute Pikachu.
