Navigating Akihabara for the first time is an intense experience (even the tenth time can be overwhelming) but don’t despair, according to The Star, foreign visitors to Tokyo’s anime zone can get their geek on with a new guide available in English.
The guide is written by Toshimichi Nozoe after hearing complaints from an English speaking colleague about the the difficulty of getting around Akihabara for foreigners and created the guide in a manga style told from the point of view of two maids.
For some reason none of the new’s sites, including The Star and even Kotaku! (what’s the deal guys?), included a link but because I value my readership (made up primarily of spam-bots and russian mail order brides if the comment section is anything to go by) I’ve tracked down the link and provided it for your purusal. http://akibaguidebook.com/ (it costs 1000yen to download the full guide)
A video trailer is also available.
