Akihabara- "rowdy, vulgar, fanatic, but it's a thrilling place that definitely wont appear elsewhere. It's the holy land for those of us who are called otaku by others. We wont be bothered by anyone, it's the land that allows us to be addicted to our own interests, to forget our gloomy lives the oasis in the desert for incompetent people like us. No, perhaps this world is actually our real life"-akihabara@deep
