What people say

Dan Tanda

"Akihabara Electric Town—affectionately known as Akiba—is famous for its densely packed buildings crammed full of anime, manga, and game paraphernalia. TIPS: Radio Kaikan and Mandarake are good for manga and anime. Check out "Super Potato" a historical shop in Akihabara, full of retro games and ancient relics from the 80s, 90s and all other decades.
