Everyday they're hustlin!

I swear, from Hong Kong to Tokyo, you can be walking in a nice area, and make one wrong turn, you walk down a street filled with nigerians slingin asian ho's like they're AK-47's and cattle (or tires if you prefer). With that said, I don't really like Roppongi. :|

As for the route from Shibuya, take the JR to Yoyogi station, get off, and walk down 6 miles into the center of the earth to the Odeo line, and it will take you to Roppongi. Exit 1c will take you straight to Roppongi Hills.

*edit*
Shit, I suppose I could've taken the JR to Ebisu, and hopped on to the Hibiya line to Roppongi. Oh well...
