Little Akihabara
This slice of Downtown Los Angeles brings the heart of Japanese subculture to you.
Experience the thrill of Japanese arcades, find merch of your favorite anime, and even meet an idol in-person in Little Akihabara! Just as you’d expect to find in the original Akihabara, our shops carry high-quality collectibles of beloved anime and gaming characters you don’t typically see in stores. Or you can challenge crane games in Kiddleton for exclusive goodies straight from Japan. Feeling really lucky? Test the RNG of authentic Gashapon machines to find adorable versions of your faves.
Those searching to recapture the flavor of their first taste of Japanese food will find fine dining, tasty treats, and colorful drinks galore at nearby restaurants. Everything in and around Little Akihabara, be it shopping, dining or entertainment, is brought to you by a passionate community who is personally invested in sharing this culture.
And if you’re looking for something fun to do this weekend, chances are that there’s a Little Akihabara live event going on. You could catch a concert and maybe even experience the rise of a brand new idol! Pop-up anime cafes bring exclusive collectibles and the rare chance to experience a themed cafe outside of Japan! And there’s more still to be announced!
