I went to the very special part of Little Tokyo today. In the center of Little Tokyo, there is an area where geeky nerdy shops are concentrated. The area is really like Akiba. Akiba is a town in Tokyo. It started as a black market after the war and now is the nerd capital of the world. Imagine the nerdiest place on the planet and multiply by 10, that’s Akiba.
I love Japanese manga, animation, video games and what not, and I cannot think of a better place to see how popular those Japanese media culture got in the U.S.
