Your experience

All things manga and anime

Step into a whimsical world as you stroll the main street of Akihabara, lined with arcades, anime stores, and maid cafes. On your walk, your local guide will tell you about the history of Akihabara, and how Tokyo’s tech hub transformed into a gaming joint. Get themed stationary or rare figurines of your favorite characters to add to your collection. Here, you can visit a Kissa, a typical Manga Cafe where people come to obsess over all things manga and meet equally passionate fans. The Maid Cafes add to the whole anime vibe, with pastel decor and elaborately dressed maids who serve themed food and beverages topped with cute sauce-doodles.

Japanese gaming world

Flirt with all the gaming trends and the glorious gaming past of Japan. You can indulge in the latest VR games or classics like Tekken and Street Fighter. The enchanted corridors of arcades will entice you with neon lights and musical chimes, taking you back to an old-school gaming world. A library of beloved and classic video games awaits you at Super Potato, a treasure trove for retro and video game enthusiasts. Here, you’ll also find never-seen-or-heard-before titles for Gameboys and fascinating anime merchandise like consoles, clothing, and more.
