Go for it and enjoy the culture shock!!!

Cool. I don't know why so many people seem uncomfortable or shocked around pornographic goods. From experience, thats all the internet seems to advertise. I guess the shock comes from the way it's on public view. I might have a browse around & find something I like. lol. It sounds (& looks) like a really interesting place, but you'd need money to fully enjoy it.

when i first visited aki 10 years ago, i liked it. but now, everything changes the small shops that used to be there are now overrun by big stores and pachinkos.. and the ambiance is different..

i rarely go there anymore, when i need electronic stuff i just go to yodobashi camera or check first kakaku.com for the cheapest store
