One thing is for sure: Portland cannot be compared with Tokyo or any other buzzing Japanese metropolis – neither sizewise, nor regarding its pace or craziness. Even though Portland is one of the weirdest cities in the US, self-chosen and totally on purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fun fact though: <\/strong>Japanese people seem to be as crazy about Portland as every single Portlander themselves. And that goes a long way if you know that \u00b4Portland\u00b4 is an aspirational brand in Tokyo<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the iconic Shibuya district local Japanese slurp Stumptown Coffee<\/em><\/strong> and enjoy a cool Breakside IPA<\/em>, eat Blue Star Donuts,<\/em><\/strong> and buy “Portland”<\/em> emblazoned T-Shirts. Sounds crazy? But it\u00b4s for real as an article in the Willamette Week<\/a> describes it: Seems like both cities seem to be somehow really close to each other, in terms of weirdness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
