The video game developer always makes aesthetics a priority in its software, and it looks like it’s doing the same for its new restaurant in Akihabara.
Akihabara (Page 11)
The shop is a bit of a walk from the station, but the superb soba at this Akihabara eatery is worth the trip.
One of Japan’s most famous gamers tops all other performances we’ve ever seen by marching and drumming up a storm, clearing the song without looking at the screen.
Not a fan of the boy wizard? Maybe you’d prefer to hold your meeting in the Wonderland room instead.
The otaku haven’s first women-only capsule hotel will celebrate its opening with an anime collaboration.
Whether you’re a diehard anime fan or couldn’t care less about otaku culture, you owe it to yourself to try this new treat in Akihabara.
Always hungry for more, we head back to the newly opened Carl’s Jr. in Tokyo to try the fast-food outlet’s morning menu.
Does Carl’s Jr. have what it takes to survive the grand-opening frenzy that every American fast food chain enjoys in Japan? We wait in line four hours to find out.
You can probably tell which stations they’ll be played at, but can you guess which songs have been chosen?
