It also has restaurants or sectors to eat, due to the large size of the store, but there is a sector that we have come to mention, which is the Literature section or floor, where they sell everything from bookstore items such as sheets, markers, books and what refers to the otaku culture mangas and comics.

Until the publication of this article, it was not reported whether the bookstore will be replaced by another of the same category or a different one, but it is not surprising that several bookstores are disappearing due to the effects of the pandemic.

As in the case of Sega that after its name change, it has closed some stores in Akihabara and in other popular centers in Japan. Surely we will continue to hear or read this type of news.
