Akihabara Blog [DannyChoo.com]



Been out n about in Akihabara of late and here are a bunch of photos that I took in the holy land by day and night. However, Akihabara is also probably the most dangerous place to visit in Japan - before you know it your wallet will be empty and you will have to walk or swim back home ^^

Used to be very bright around here. Its been over a year since the earthquake and while many shops are lighting up, its still noticeably darker than before the quake.

A load of manga and magazines at Comic Zin.
There are many Softmap buildings in Akihabara - the big one on the corner (right of this photo) has a load of electronics. The one on the left of this photo is filled with eroge.

If you are in Akihabara, head to the anime merchandise section of many anime shops and you will most likely find some Moekana ^o^
Although Moekana was designed for foreigners to learn Japanese, many Japanese folks purchased the product for their kids too and it became the 2nd best selling anime product on Amazon Japan.

Inside the UDX building are some restaurants - lots of traditional foods to be found in there.
Today's traditional food is Ton Katsu - deep fried pork in breadcrumbs.
