My fondness for books brought me to K-Books while strolling through the rabbit warren of Akihabara, the electronics and anime hub of Tokyo, if not Japan. To my amazement, more than a hundred thousand books met my eyes in just one floor, yet none of them were the usual kind of books I read. It is a place where Danielle Steel and Sydney Sheldon do not exist. In fact most, if not all of the reading materials on display are manga, or related to animation and everything to do with it.
