Akky & Akky2 are brilliant for souvenirs to take home. Mandarake usually has some hidden gems in. I always go to that little hidden shrine as it’s so peaceful. Also managed to find a Airsoft place as couple of streets behind the Main Street which was awesome fun.
-
This is perfect. Can't wait to visit Akihabara. 🎉
-
I liked your Picolo cosplay
-
Yes #10. Definitely get lost! There's always something to find that you don't expect. I've explored Akihabara for days since I last stayed in Asakusabashi. I have more solo plans for Japan next year. More cities and more hotels. Also go to a Book Off for used games.

I visited Tokyo Japan last April and also went to a whole day walk in Akihabara, got a PS vita 1000, there fantastic place woohoo 😅
-
I spent 1.5 days in Akihabara in my recent trip and it was not enough lol. There is so much to explore in every shop. I spent so many hours in there that I gave my brother (who was traveling with me) the pocket wifi and told him to go do whatever he wants and meet me back in a few hours 😂I wish I could have spent more time there! To add to your recommendations: Mandarake has alot of cool stuff as well, but they have other branches in other cities. K books and Amiami are also nice stores with a bunch of anime/gacha games merch (got alot of hololive stuff from there). Animate also has some anime merch but it is more for mainstream anime. Tamashi Nations also has high quality figures but is expensive. I have found Radio Kaikan/Astop to be the best places to get figures in my opinion.

The pre-owned/retro stores in Japan are heaven for me. I sometimes even buy broken stuff there because I know I can fix them. Bought a ton of games recently at awesome prices and have been having lots of fun
-
Cafe Mai Lish was a nice maid cafe to find when getting lost. Would likely try a Magikarp dessert next time

Akihabara is one of the best places in Tokyo in my opinion. It is important to mention that many older games that you can buy there can have Japanese as the only language option. Also, many older consoles or home appliances can work only with the Japanese electric grid, so you need a transformer (not an adapter!) in order to use those.

Hi Nathan. I just came back yesterday to my home country after a big 2 week adventure in Japan. I just wanted to say a massive thankyou for your videos! I stayed in Ueno, as per your suggestion, and it was absolutely amazing. I was a bit nervous about staying in Tokyo as I'm a real country boy, but it was so green and peaceful in Ueno. I also loved that it was only a short walk to Akihabara, so it was the perfect spot for me. Also your video on Japanese language that you did with Oriental Pearl was massively helpful. I was really struggling on where to start, so that video made a world of difference for me. I used those phrases a lot. Knowing some japanese really saved me in a lot of awkward situations 😅.
-
Fantastic video, Nathan. Didn’t know about Kanda temple. I’ll plan to check it out next year! 😊
-
I stayed right next to the station, which was an amazing location. Walked to Donki at 1am in the morning no crowd and really peaceful at that time xD. Not staying there this coming trip but it was a nice area to enjoy as I went to the crane game locations many times over. Also walked to that Vending Machine corner, was sad to see so much trash around them but it was amusing especially the mystery boxes.
-
I was there recently and got back. If only this video was made when I was there would have helped out a lot. Appreciate the tips!
-
A very good place to find affordable retro videogames. Got myself Suikoden 2 for the PS1 for only a few bucks. It is in Japanese. No Furigana. Nothing a translation patch + emulator can't fix.
-
Another great job encapsulating an area of Tokyo! Capsule! LOL get it?
-
That's the first place I'm going when I visit next year. 😄
-
Awesome tips. I hope it can become a series for each place in Tokyo. :)

This what the game section of the internet archive looks like in irl

Awesome!
