Whilst possibly overwhelming or discomforting, walking through Donki gives an honest display of consumerism, and manages to make it exciting. Like Walmart, it's essentially an incredible variety of stuff jumbled together. But Walmart is an Amazon warehouse in which the customers do the picking. It's systematic and depressing, and one feels like they might be in an item in a production line. Donki is chaotic, musical and risqué. It's not uncommon to see well-dressed couples on dates swinging tipsily through, because it's somehow conducive to romance, or at the very least, not a very shameful place to be seen. A store will have a variety of atmospheres, not all of them pleasant, but I much prefer the honesty of the chaos to the censored productions of most consumer 'experiences'.
