Kanye West has finally been reunited with his children after reportedly spending 118 days apart as he continues life overseas, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.
The controversial rapper, 47, who has been traveling with Australian wife Bianca Censori, 30, for much of the last six months, was spotted in Japan with his three youngest children by ex-wife Kim Kardashian earlier on Tuesday.
Exclusive DailyMail.com photos and video show West visiting a 7-Eleven convenience store in Tokyo's Ginza district with Saint, nine, Chicago, six, and Psalm, five.
Dressed entirely in black, the dad-of-four left the store with his kids clutching huge bags of snacks, following a 10-minute visit.
Censori and eldest daughter North, 11, were not part of the group outing and it is not clear whether the preteen traveled to Japan to visit her dad with her siblings.
An onlooker told DailyMail.com that the Yeezy boss arrived in a black van with his bodyguards and declined selfies with passers-by.
Kanye West was seen reuniting with his children in Japan on Tuesday amid his extended stay overseas with wife Bianca Censori
The 47-year-old rapper was spotted taking three of his kids, Saint, 9, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5, to a 7-Eleven in the Ginza district of Tokyo. It is unclear if eldest daughter North, 11, traveled to see her father with her siblings
'A black van pulled out the front and all of a sudden the kids have gone running in and Kanye followed behind, trying to hide in the 7-Eleven with his hood up,' said the witness.
'The kids were buying up the store - they had two carrier bags full of random lollipops and snacks.
'Myself and a couple of other families noticed him.'
Kanye – or 'Ye' as he prefers to be known – was last seen with his children in public in September when they performed together at a Vultures 2 listening event in Haikou, China.
In the interim, he and Censori have lived a nomadic existence, drifting between Japan, China, and the Maldives.
The couple rang in the New Year in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where the pair also celebrated Censori's 30th birthday on January 5 with her parents.

Ye's constant traveling has become a bone of contention between him and Kardashian, 44, in recent weeks with the reality star accusing him of an absent father to their children.
The rapper attracted further criticism after a series of hellish wildfires ignited around Los Angeles, including two that threatened the Calabasas neighborhood where his children live.
Despite the infernos blazing close to their home, Ye did not rush back from Japan to check on his children and has now flown them to Tokyo instead – a move that will invite more questions over why he is so reluctant to return to the US.
On Monday DailyMail.com revealed that his fear of being dragged into the sex abuse case that has seen his former pal Sean 'Diddy' Combs thrown in jail is partly to blame.
'Kanye's reasoning for not being [in America] has nothing to do with his children and has everything to do with the multiple lawsuits that he is facing in the states,' a source told DailyMail.com.
'With all this stuff with Diddy, Kanye is terrified.'
Kanye West has remained overseas as 2025 kicks off. The rapper was recently seen celebrating his wife Bianca's 30th birthday in Dubai after spending time in Japan and China for the past four months

Meanwhile in LA, Kanye's wife ex-wife Kim Kardashian and their four young children - North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm - all had to evacuate their Hidden Hills, California mansion after the Kenneth Fire threatened to burn it down
Diddy is currently in federal custody facing a litany of charges, including sex trafficking related to drug-fueled 'freak-off' orgies.
Ye's extended travels began in June, when he was named in an ongoing wrongful termination and sexual harassment lawsuit by his former assistant, and Censori-lookalike, Lauren Pisciotta, 36.
Pisciotta claimed West had subjected her to repeated incidents of sexual harassment when she worked for him in 2021 and 2022, and that he fired her after she refused to sleep with him.
West has denied all the claims.
Then in an updated filing in October, Pisciotta added a raft of new accusations.
She alleged that she was sexually assaulted by West sometime before she began working for him in 2021.

Pisciotta claimed the incident occurred during a party at a Santa Monica recording studio, where Combs was allegedly present.
She claims that she was told to either have a drink or leave and beverages 'poured at the direction of West' were served. After drinking, she allegedly 'slip[ed] into an altered and highly-impaired state.'
Only years later, Pisciotta says, did West suggest to her that they had sexual relations that evening.
Pisciotta also alleged that as West's personal assistant she was tasked with organizing orgies and was asked to recruit sex workers and procure a supply of sexual-enhancement products that West allegedly called his 'sex honey'.
Pisciotta's lawyer, Mark Koorenny, said in filings in November that West had been 'out of the country' and he accused the rapper of 'evading service [of a subpoena]' stalling the lawsuit.
West's lawyers have denied all of these allegations as well.
