Martial Arts book store in Tokyo
When you are looking for a martial arts book in Tokyo, you have to find it in a large book store.
If you go to a small shops in a sport section, you may find few books.
I may recommend some bookstores which I usually go to grab a martial art book.
A famous street for book store in Tokyo is near Jimbocho station.
It is called "Kanda book street". However, if you go to Kanda station, you cannot find the book stop there.
You can take several trains to Jimbocho station or Shin ocha no misu.
You may walk from Suidobashi which I posted about Budo shops last time to Jimbocho.
If you need a new book,
I recommend go to Shosen book store (Grande tower).http://info.shosen.co.jp/grande/
Go to underground floor, you will find a martial arts section there.
A strange thing in this shop is....
the sport section is on same floor with Japanese Idol and AV book and DVD on underground floor.
What you can find there....
Book and DVD - all kinds of martial art from Koryu to Modern martial art.
As I remember ... Karate, Judo, Daito ryu Jujitsu, Jujitsu , Brazilian jujitsu (BJJ),
Pro wrestler, Ninja, Ninjutsu, Taido, Kempo, Kyusho, Boxing, Bujutsu,
Many style of iaido, kendo, self defense, etc.
Also Book about sword, yoroi, sumo, Kungfu, Magazine
There also have some English language books.
Actually, If you know value of some books, you can find a rare book there in very good condition.
(Just looking on the hard cover book....)
If you looking for an old book, ... I will write about it next time.
