hi. I'm just wondering what you refer to those living in Tokyo.
I came across in an article "Washingtonian". I have often heard that kind of words such as "Bostonian" and "New Yorker". Is there a common way to say of people living in Tokyo? I've heard some people say "Tokyoist". Is that the one?:?:
 
I have heard English speakers here in Tokyo use Tokyoites. I haven't heard Tokyoist, but rather like it.

Not to be confused with Trotskyites.
 
Not to be confused with:
Tokyoite is a rare barium manganese vanadate mineral with the chemical formula: Ba2(Mn3+,Fe3+)OH(VO4)2.
Thanks Wikipedia.
