Akihabara, Tokyo Overview
The electronics reputation is decades out of date. Akihabara now runs on anime, manga, retro games and figurines, sold through multi-floor specialist shops like Mandarake and the thirty-odd stores inside Radio Kaikan. Come on a Sunday afternoon, when Chuo Dori closes to traffic. If you try a maid cafe, settle the cover charge and per-item prices before you sit down.
Akihabara is widely acknowledged for it's technological and electronics market, and its gaming culture. Boasting of a Pokemon Centre and Gundam Cafe, Akihabara is another place for eclectic themed cafes and restaurants (more catered towards anime and gaming fans). A franchise called Akky specialises in duty-free electronics for overseas use, while many other shops have a wide range of high-quality electronics and the top-of-the-range gaming equipment.
