Lucky Star - Big City

Whenever Konata and the gang from Lucky Star wants to check out a show or go shopping at Gamers or Animate they go to the Ōmiya ward in Saitama city. Ōmiya station is the closest one and all the locations I checked out is on the west side of the station.

This is right outside Ōmiya station. Make sure you use the walkway exit on the second floor and not go down to the first floor street exit if you're here.

This is Ōmiya Sonic City where Konata and the gang went to see Aya Hirano perform.

And to the left of Ōmiya station there's this place where the store Animate used to be.




Both Gamers and Animate have moved to this place which is right around the corner from the old Animate location. There's also a MelonBooks store here if you decide to check this place out.

Like Konata I just had to check out the Animate store and I found some Lucky Star manga in there. ^_^
