    Awesome timing as always! I canโ€™t believe how passive those 3 guys look below those faces! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

      Thanks! Yes, that’s what struck me when I saw them, and what prompted the photograph.

    What and incredible photograph. The three dudes are so different. In fact their only similarity is their indifference to their surroundings.
    It would be weird if they were all chasing the same pokemon ๐Ÿ™‚

      Thank you. Yes, all completely different, and yet also exactly the same.

      A distinct possibility. Pokemon Go is still popular here. Recently in Kabukicho there have been big gatherings of players, the majority of whom are far from young. Saw one fella with 4 phones on the go too.

    I’m unsettled by the four faces behind the three individuals.

      They are definitely very striking. Not your average poster at all…
