Lost in Translation - Tokyo Arrival

It feels good leaving Southeastasia again for my next destination, Tokyo. At a first glimpse, the city feels comfortably western although the subway map looks way more difficult than any comparable map of European cities I have visited before.
In order to get an overview of the city, I headed to Shinjuku filled with commerce, department stores and fancy hotels... in short: downtown Tokyo.
