Anime Events

City of People


Shibuya actually has several places where otaku (anime and manga fans) can enjoy! However, no matter when you go, it's always incredibly crowded, so if you don't like crowds, I don't recommend it too much (;'∀') But it's a fun place, so if you're okay with crowds, please give it a try! Especially if you like games, you'll enjoy it! There's Capcom Store and Nintendo Store! There are also places like Animate, so anime fans should definitely check it out!

You can check out other events on this event calendar!

They have a wide range of goods, and you can also enjoy various character displays with opportunities for photos! It tends to be extremely crowded on weekends, so it's recommended to visit on weekdays (;'∀').

Capcom Store

For those who love Capcom games like Monster Hunter and Street Fighter, this is a place you definitely can't miss! There's a particularly strong presence of Monster Hunter-related content! They even have a life-sized figure of Rathalos (only the face, but it looks cool!).

Pop-up Store

Shibuya Parco hosts anime and game-related pop-up shops and events every month! Each time, check the official website here to see if any of your favorite series are being featured, and make sure to attend the event!

Shibuya Sky

Shibuya Sky might not be directly related to otaku culture, but it's incredibly beautiful, so I highly recommend it! Especially on summer nights, it's very refreshing, making it a great suggestion!
