Nakano

Among Tokyo’s urban districts, Nakano stands out for Nakano Broadway, the 1966 shopping complex that developed into a major centre for manga, anime and collectors’ culture. The Myōshōji River crosses this western Tokyo special ward, positioned between the inner city and residential districts farther west. Around Nakano Station, covered arcades, independent eateries and everyday shops give the streets a local tempo, while JR Chūō services and the Tokyo Metro Tōzai Line connect the area with central Tokyo. Mandarake’s stores in Nakano Broadway are a key address for second-hand comics, toys and pop-culture collectibles.
