Inspired by Hiroshige Utagawa
It depicts the electric town of Akihabara at night. Akihabara was born out of the postwar black market and developed as the center of electrical products and otaku culture.
The coat of arms floating in the neon lights of the work is derived from an ARG (alternative reality game) that EXCALIBUR held in Akihabara.
秋葉原の電気街、夜の風景が描かれています。戦後の闇市から生まれた秋葉原は電気製品、そしてオタクカルチャーの中心として発展しました。ネオンの中に浮かぶ紋章は、EXCALIBURが秋葉原で開催したARG(代替現実ゲーム)に由来するものです。
