Tokyo Swan 28: Akihabara Sunday
This episode sees another fun trip to the electronic district of Tokyo known as Akihabara. This interesting part of town became one of my favorite sections of Tokyo, because it was really interesting to see so many stores dealing only with electronics, anime, and comics.
One other main factor of Akihabara, is that on Sundays various people would line the main road and dress up as various anime or video game characters (or sometimes would just display eccentric fashion style). While such activites are not limited to Akihabara, it is one of the hot spots to go to if one wants to see such incredible costumes.
Also, there are various people playing instruments or putting on little steet-side shows. Imagine my surprise to see a group of people rapping on the side of the road! It's always a great time in Akihabara, and there's always someone interesting to meet.
