Tokyo after 2am - what's actually open when the trains stop

Last trains end around midnight but tokyo doesn't sleep. Here's the after-hours survival guide:

Karaoke boxes stay open 24/7 and cost around ¥300-500 per hour after 2am. Big echo and karaoke-kan are everywhere - perfect for killing time until morning trains.

Don quijote stores are 24-hour madness. Shibuya and shinjuku locations have everything from snacks to weird souvenirs to kill late night hours.

Convenience stores become social hubs after 2am. You'll see salary workers drinking coffee and students cramming for exams. Grab a seat by the window and people-watch.

Night buses run limited routes but they're cheap (¥210) and connect major areas until 5am when trains restart.
