Akihabara - An Otaku's Paradise

We jet to the land of bright lights, loud music, maid cafes, and questionable manga shops. Akihabara or as I like to call it Akiba is a surreal experience that might leave you deaf and blind after only a few hours. Come enjoy the land of otaku where cosplay is ok any day.

My recommendation for the day is Ericsurf6's video: http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=g0ysx9oZ3pE

is there anywhere in akihabara were i can get sailor moon manga plz tell me cheapest place ya know

[GaijinGuide]

Used Manga stores are probably the best. You can buy one volume for about $1 or even less. Book Off is a good place to start looking at..

I was really surprised to get good Indian food in Tokyo at a resonable price. It made my day.
