Broadway Nakano Joins Oatku Hot Spots
Date: 8/14/2006
Yomiuri Shimbun has a writeup on the male oriented otaku hotspot of Akihabara and the female oriented Otome Road in Ikebukuro. Nakano's "Broadway Nakano" also known as the "Otaku Building" has in recent years collected many specialty magazine and figure shops. Several of the shops were originally based in Akihabara but had since shut down those operations, opting for a move to Nakano. This has gotten the landmark the name of "The Second Akihabara".
