Pros

Sunshine City, which has all the same nerd shops as any Parco but all in one place.

Sunshine City for Pokemon center and Bandai Namco Cross Store is close to that too.
Sunshine City shopping and tourism complex, at the younger people's request They loved the many anime-themed shops, pokemon cafe, and gacha-pon stores

Cons

Sunshine city isn't worth it in Ikebukuro.
Sunshine city is alright if you have littles, Namja town is quirky. Decent place if you want to do mall style shopping.
Sunshine city isn't worth it, just go to the Pokémon Center in Parco Shibuya.

my unabashed shopping day in Ikebukuro. I'd planned to do Akihabara too but never made it there. Mainly went to Sunshine City, Parco, Animate, and the surrounding area.

Mainly went to Sunshine City, Parco, Animate, and the surrounding area. ... I still think about how I probably saw her working the day I went.
