Everything Else
Actually a prison themed dining bar where costumed staff sometimes put on skits for you. Has a heavy metal haunted house vibe, pure cheese if you are in the mood.

Entertainment & Activities
Even if you are not a fan of baseball, or have only seen it in its American incarnation, a Japanese baseball game, especially one with the Hanshin Tigers and their fanatical fans (like Chicago Cubs or Boston Red Sox fans) is something that should be experienced if even only once.
