Ikebukuro may be the oft-overlooked, slightly gritty cousin of Shinjuku, Ginza, Shibuya, Roppongi, and Akihabara, but that hasn't stopped it from developing a funky groove of its own.
The area -- which literally means “lake bag” in Japanese -- has everything from anime arcades, maid cafes and mega malls to an aquarium and planetarium, not to mention a gyoza theme park, a flourishing ramen scene, and an ongoing sizzling hot electronic store war.
One could say Ikebukuro has got everything in the bag -- except that lake.
