indeed good point about looking up… the @home maid cafe, for example isn’t on the ground floor ^^;;

It’s actually not that hard to find your way around. You might find yourself missing certain shops though.

My best hint would be to always look UP. There are small shops hidden on upper floors of buildings, that sometimes have some great stuff.

@eltboy domo domo ^^ if you’re good with directions, it should be pretty easy to orient yourself with chuou doori and the jr station, but otherwise… stop by gamers for a copy of a map ^^

loot post soon~

Welcome back! Thanks for this guide. This will come in handy for me. I have never been to Akiba but I reckon I will be very lost when I do get there eventually without any guide. Heck, I’ll go wherever there’s figures.

フィギュア … フィギュア … I will probably go round asking “Gomen, figures wa doko desu ka?” ^^”

Looking forward to your loot post!

@rin i also navigated on looks until my last couple trips… unfortunately that’s not my forte so was ending up in unfamiliar territory a little more than i bargained for ^^;;

hope you and your friends have an excellent trip (still a bit aways i guess ^^;;)!

@actar glad ya liked it, and thanks for the info on the character ^^

@aaoninjapan09/fumka/fumika it should’ve been available in front of gamers, although i noticed they weren’t handing it out early in the morning. also if it was raining, they might’ve closed up the table where they’re usually available….

welcome to the blagosphere ^^ i’ll add ya to my blogroll in a bit… soo much crap at work to catch up on atm (i really shouldn’t be responding to comments right now ^^;;;)

@blowfish hahah would’ve been a terrible waste of time in japan ^^;; hope ya make it to japan soon (barring that, someday), it’s a wonderful place ^^

Wow where did you get that map, I would have so grabbed one if I could.

O and thanks to you, I’ve been inspired to start by own blog :). I’d like to add you to mutual blog roll, but I haven’t figured out how to use wordpress properly yet :P.
