>Former Japanese Defense Ministry Yuriko Koike is currently running for Tokyo governor. Among her ideas to is to leverage anime. Because anime is real.
>While in Tokyo’s geek district Akihabara, Koike talked about how last Halloween she dressed as Sally from Sally the Witch, an early magical girl anime. Kioke added that she wants the anime industry to grow and talked about supporting Comic Market, a twice-a-year event in Tokyo.
>This could be further reaching than areas like Akihabara or Ikebukuro. Daily Sports quotes Koike, who served as the country’s Minister of Defense in 2007, as actually saying she wants to turn “all of Tokyo” into “anime land” (アニメランド or animerando).
What do you think of the new Tokyo governor? Will she protect akiba from the normies before the Olympics start?

You got a fucking source on that, shithead?

If that is true then it's not because she wants to "protect akiba from normies", it's because that style is profitable and attracts turists.
If anything it'd be to attract normies.

I was so disappointed when I first visited Tokyo. It was so mundane.
