I want to travel to Japan and buy some animation peripheral products. Where in Japan are the animation products (such as the hand of the game king) more affordable?

Game coffee shop, comic teahouse

Internationalized region

According to a survey conducted by Japan International Tourism Promotion Agency in 2003, 7% of foreign tourists have been to Akihabara. In June, 2004, the Shopkeep Street Promotion Association of Akihabara established the Tourism Department, and distributed maps in English, Chinese and Korean at 120, a hotel-oriented place in Tokyo. Since the 1960s, Japan's manufacturing technology has surpassed the world's leading level, and Japanese household appliances have also been favored by people all over the world. "Made in Japan" has become a symbol of quality assurance. Foreigners who came to Japan for tourism and business began to patronize Akihabara and buy Japanese household appliances (radios, walkmen, stereos, game consoles, etc.). ) as a gift. Duty-free shops and shops with duty-free counters for these foreign customers are gradually increasing. It can be said that Akihabara has become an international wonderful place.
