(The Mandarake store in Akihabara.)
When asked where Mandarake will be in 5 years, Mr. Naotsugu predicts that there will be a lot more stores around Japan. He also thinks that the Nakano store will not move to another location, but rather expand to other shops in the shopping mall. Mandarake is very loyal to the Nakano area.
With stores in almost every region of Japan, there appears no slowing down for this humble bookstore. Mandarake has come a long way from its simple beginnings to being one of the most well known stores in Japan today.
