Japanese apartment tour - how much does rent cost

He tours the one-room apartment shared with his girlfriend: rent is ¥46,000 monthly, with his half costing ¥23,000. Electricity is extra and pricier in winter; the main room fits a double bed, TV, table, shelves, closet, and tree. His girlfriend makes breakfast daily; compact facilities include a kitchen, toilet, entrance, shower room, and sticking drain and shower valve.

Cohabitation appears practical and low-cost, while domestic quirks and shared intimacy remain central to his Japan-based life.
