In Real Life

Let’s Take An Audio Walk Through Akihabara

2:00PM October 23, 2009 | Brian Ashcraft

Ah yes, Akihabara. All your gaming, manga, anime and maid needs concentrated in one place. Some of you might have been there, some not. Some of you might even be there right now.

Either way, you can let your ears take a stroll through the geek district.

Patrick W. Galbraith, author of The Otaku Encyclopedia and University of Tokyo PhD candidate, is your guide. Geek luminaries like Otaku USA Magazine editor Patrick Macias and Tokyo Stormtropper Danny Choo are interviewed as well.

Each tour is bundled with a CD with MP3 audio, an area map and a photography booklet. Yours for US$12.

    Ah yes, was a nice place to be. Too bad I didn’t understand enough Japanese to actually hop around all the stores to look at stuff (and understand it) and act like a complete otaku.
