Five Things You Need to Get Completely Smashed in Downtown Osaka

Drinking is a way of knowing a city.

When you drink in Osaka's downtown, you sometimes end up listening to strangers' life advice.
You walk into a place you hadn't planned to visit, drink something you hadn't planned to drink, and before you know it you've lost your reason to go home.

This book is based on countless experiences of walking, drinking, and getting drunk in Osaka's downtown, including Juso,
and reflects on "Five things you need to get completely plastered in Osaka's shitamachi."

Buy tomorrow's bread, then drink tonight.
Don't exit the ticket gate at Juso.
Don't trust 'just one skewer' of kushikatsu.
Keep updating your 'I can walk home from here' judgment.
And don't make excuses to go bar-hopping.

This is not a manual on drinking.
Maybe it's a guide to being swallowed by the city.
