    I came in observance of the launch of a Jujutsu Kaisen mobile game that launched and for one day, Asayoru has made some of menu items Jujutsu Kaisen theme. I ordered the gyodan that wasn't much different than the regular gyodan, it has a sausage on place of an egg to replicate Sakudo's finger. I had the Gojo parfait and it was yummy. It has a vanilla scoop, blue jello, and Pocky. I did enjoy the matcha milk. When I arrived, the cafe was very busy. It holds he same fun atmosphere like it was back at EXP, but it was on a Saturday, so, high chances of availability to go is expected for young adults who work weekdays or go to school can make it on the weekends. I was able to get some Jujutsu Kaisen freebies after sharing the banner for their mobile game on Instagram. I was able to have a good time at Sakurin's birthday event the day after or the day I reviewed my experience. One thing I want to point out is in the second row somewhere in the middle, I felt something hot on my back. I assumed it was the stage light projecting from the back row. I was too focused on the performance to consider finding out.
