What You’ll Do
This private tour is for anime and manga fans.
You don’t have to stick to a generic route; you choose the area that matches your fandom.
We can dive into the electric town of Akihabara, explore the “female otaku road” in Ikebukuro, or dig for vintage treasures in Nakano Broadway.
We can also visit specific “pilgrimage” spots from your favourite anime if you let us know in advance.
⏰ Tour Details:
- Duration: 5 hours
- Meeting point: Cow Cow Kitchen Akihabara
🗓️ Sample Itinerary (flexible, of course!):
Choose the otaku district that best matches your interests—Akihabara, Ikebukuro, or Nakano Broadway.
If you choose Akihabara, we’ll explore multi-storey anime and gaming shops like Animate, Radio Kaikan, and Mandarake, browse for figures, manga, trading cards, and exclusive merchandise, before stopping by an iconic arcade or themed café.
If Ikebukuro is more your style, we’ll wander through Sunshine City, Animate’s flagship store, K-Books, and Otome Road, discovering the heart of Japan’s female otaku culture, doujinshi, cosplay, and character goods.
For those looking for hidden treasures, we’ll head to Nakano Broadway, one of Tokyo’s best destinations for vintage anime collectibles, rare figures, retro games, manga, and nostalgic memorabilia.
If there’s a particular anime, manga, or game you love, let us know in advance and we’ll happily customise the route to include pilgrimage locations, specialty shops, or themed cafés related to your favourite series.
