Tokyo’s Akihabara is an anime mecca where anime otaku from all over the world gather or pay attention. We will introduce a new trending word in Akihabara, “Akibaccano”.
What is “Akibaccano”?
Akibaccano” is a dance battle among anime and anisong lovers held in Akihabara.
The history of the event is quite old, with the first “Akibaccano” held in 2013. Since then, it has been held about twice a year.
