vending machine (Page 2)
Seiji may never need to go to a ramen restaurant again, so long as he can find a ramen vending machine.
Hopefully it will help people realize they’re not supposed to throw trash in recycling bins.
This ephemeral vending machine lets you buy a floral gift right in the heart of the Japanese capital.
This little device could almost always be found in cafés in Japan throughout the latter part of the Showa Period (1926-1989).
One noodle-dispensing vending machine in the north of Japan is so beloved that you can now buy it in dessert form with a special box.
The vending machines have been set up at 14 different elementary and middle schools in Tsukubamirai city.
We’ll give you a hint: this vending machine will provide you divine protection while on the go.
This vending machine has ‘mystery’ written all over it – literally.
