We visited Shosen Book Tower to find a particular book. Unfortunately, the tower did not have the book, but it had literally everything else - everything from adult manga in English to the mess that is American politics in Japanese. For bookworms and collectors, Shosen Book Tower is essentially heaven. If there is a specific book you are looking for, do not make the same mistake as us, and actually ask staff about the stock, as it would actually take at least half an hour to simply see the types of books on every floor.

This book store is great, they have Japanese and JLPT books. They also have books in English and lots of cute stationary. The bookstore is 9 floors. They have manga too. The women’s bathroom is on the 6th floor and the men’s bathroom is on the 5th floor. They have escalators so you don’t have to go up stairs. The space is quite small on each floor so be careful when you walk around.

Huge book shop. With nine floors full of books. Good place to go if you want Manga books. There is a small selection of English books. Staff were very helpful in directing me to the correct floor and helping me find the books I required. The prices were good. Although there are tills on all floors, you pay on the ground floor.

I went to this bookstore last year and bought some materials for learning Japanese. I returned to see if I could find more. I ended up buying a calendar. The bookstore is well laid out with six floors or so. Each floor is easily navigated and dedicated to specific topics. There are plenty of staff around who are helpful if asked. Otherwise they seemed very busy organizing and stocking the shelves. There are two floors of manga, a floor for models, a technology floor, and more. There's so much packed into this place. Right on the edge of Akihabara, you won't face the crowds from a few blocks over. It is on the corner of a busy intersection because there's a station exit right there. A nice place to pick up some Tokyo souvenirs, like Suica and Metro products. Definitely a stop for men anytime...

Shosen Book Tower is my regular book shop. The sheer diversity of what is available is staggering. For those learning Japanese there is a good selection of Japanese Language textbooks, which can be hard to find elsewhere. Each floor houses four different types of books. For Manga fans there is alot of choice, anx because it is on the outskirts of electric town it is not as busy as some of the other bookstores.

The staff have always been kind and efficient in my experience.

It should be noted that there is not a section for English Langauge novels, which would have been the cherry...

A multi-floor building stuffed with all books of all kinds, though most are in Japanese, as you might expect. Plenty of the standard manga and light novel fare, but also floors dedicated to broader topics like sports or transportation, so there's a bit of something for everybody.

However, as a warning to those traveling with children or of a sensitive nature: Unlike many other bookstores that have a separate, curtained-off section or dedicated floor, Shosen Book Tower has explicit materials displayed openly, so do be...
