Visting Akihabara

animewolf20
I always wanted to visit so I can go to a maid café and buy a bunch of anime merchandise. Also I wanted to stay in a old style Japanese inn with hot spring. So basically I was wandering what it's like over there if there's somewhere else I need To visit while I'm there when I go.

I wouldn't know but there is a game called akibas trip which has you run around all of akihabara so i guess you could play that to find out what the area is like its just a idea

Well, I found Akihabara very uhh, male-oriented. It was disappointing(maybe even offensive) for me, but if you're into the moe/loli/ecchi/harem stuff, you'd probably like it. I didn't even see general-audience anime like shounen/shoujo, except in the book store... just seinen and hentai girls everywhere. There's "Otome Road" in Ikebukuro, but that is the opposite of Akiba and female-oriented. I wouldn't consider either of them to be "THE" anime place, because of how they aim at specific audiences. Probably a convention or comikett is the better place for all kinds of anime. I saw an ad for a maid cafe too, but my mom didn't want to go. Have never heard of any old-style Japanese inns or hot springs in the area, since it's really urban with skyscrapers... I think it'd be more likely in the country like the mountains outside of Tokyo city area probably.
