Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

Japanese short-video creator Jinta documents his attempt to convert a former electrical-shop building in Imabari into a guesthouse.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-26 issue.

Field notes

The project is organized as a staged conversion: the second floor is designated for lodging first, followed by a coworking floor, café-bar, and rooftop-style event space. The proposed lodging inventory is 16 dormitory beds and two private rooms, while the creator’s earlier workroom series provides a documented prequel to the renovation. The site also records more than 350 self-produced short videos and points readers toward Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube for continuing progress.
