Tokyo is ground zero for Japan`s popular ” Geek” or otaku culture-a phenomenon that has now swept across the globe. This is the most comprehensive guide ever produced to Tokyo`s geeky underworld. It provides a comprehensive run-down on each major Tokyo district where geeks congregate, shop, play & hangout-from hi-tech Akihabara & trendy Harajuku to newer & lesser-known haunts like chic Shimo-Kita & working-class Ikebukuro. Dozens of iconic shops, restaurants, cafes & clubs in each area are described in loving detail with precise directions how to get to each location. Maps, URLs, opening hours & over 400 fascinating color photographs bring you around Tokyo on an unforgettable trip to the centers of Japanese manga, anime & geek culture. Interviews with local otaku experts & street people let you see the world from their perspective & provide insights on what is currently happening in Tokyo now which will eventually impact the rest of the world! Japan`s geek culture in its myriad forms is more popular today than ever before-with Japanese manga filling every bookstore; anime cartoons on TV; transformer toys & video games like Pokemon Go played by tens of millions of people. Swarms of visitors come to Tokyo each year on a personal quest to soak in all the otaku-related sights & enjoy Japanese manga, anime, gaming & idol culture at its very source. This is the book they have to get!” Overall, the Tokyo Geek`s Guide is worth the purchase... .this is a solid entry into checking out the geekier aspects of Tokyo, & a strong debut for Simone. As the popularity of Japanese pop culture continues to grow overseas, the Tokyo Geek`s Guide will serve as the ultimate gateway to expand otaku culture into future generations of fans wanting to see the imagination that makes it the force it is today.”-Tony Yao, yatta tachi. See the review here.`” The pages are as easy to digest as a comic book thanks to the plethora of candy-colored photos, & the nuggets of information in the text are easy to assimilate. From the fannish pilgrimage hotspots of Akihabara & Nakano to less well-known areas like Koiwa & Hachioji, Simone has suggestions for what you must see & do, a guide to costs, & detailed descriptions of exactly how to get there. Highly recommended for first-time visitors, it may also surprise regular Tokyo hands with a few places they`ve missed.”
