Tokyo: A popular place for manga and anime fans is getting an upgrade as “Animate”, which currently has a nine-floor complex at Ikebukuro, is expanding its premises.
As per Sora News, the public health centre that used to be next door had relocated. The chain will look to celebrate its 40th birthday next year by aiming to be the world's largest anime store.
The Ikebukuro district is popular destination for anime and video game fans.
As a matter of fact, Animate, Japan’s largest chain of anime specialty shops, got its start in Ikebukuro, opening its very first branch there in 1983.
Hence, the organization has decided to snatch the space up and use it to build a large expansion that will be attached and integrated into Animate Ikebukuro’s current form.
The new facility, to be called the Animate Ikebukuro Flagship Store, is scheduled to open in the spring of 2023.
