What is popular for teens in Japan?

Question:

I can't wait to go, but I really wanna know what's there, name anything! Whether its for boys girls no matter what age, please don't be nasty

Answer:

All of my friends (except Chie... R.I.P <3 Always with you :'( ) enjoy cute things. American's interperte the correct word into the language for some reason and they keep saying Kawaii.... Which is awesome.... But not only do we enjoy cute and cuddly things like Hello Kitty, big ribbons, pink, purple etc, we also like "Lolita" (pronounced in Japanese RO-RI-TA) which is basically goth, infused with sweetness and kawaii. Cute plays a big and prominent part in our culture for us teens. If you come and you are a teen try to be cute and wear pinks and stuff but looking soulless and like a doll is also part of our teenage popular things. I have many lolita dresses and they cost A LOT. I spend about 300 yen a week on dresses. Not all of us like lolita though, my friend Arisu hates it and just wears a pink top and lots of bows, and very cute thing. On eBay, you can search "Kawaii" and you will find many things that we use a lot.

Anime and Manga is obviously popular but is even more popular with teens, and we enjoy buying merchandise and filling our rooms with it. Me and my friends watch many Anime and read much Manga, we like Kuroshitsuji or "Black Butler", Vampire Chibi Karin, Vampire Knight but also Card Captor Sakura etc.

Me and a few friends also like cosplaying and it plays a huge part of not only Japanese teen sub-culture, but culture too. Sometimes we dressed up in our cosplay outfits and just went outside to make videos and things, it is always fun. Try to partake in cosplay if you visit.

Video games also are big here. We get the games before many countries do, so we complete them before they are ordered in Europe and America.

Hope I helped!
