Naked man strolls up to Akihabara Station in Tokyo to buy a train ticket 【Photos】

Good thing he had a backpack, because where else was he going to stick his change?


Each neighborhood of Tokyo is a window to the tastes and passions of the people who frequent it, and that’s represented in the fashions you’ll see on the subdivisions of the capital’s streets. For example, in a few minutes of people-watching in trendy Daikanyama you’ll undoubtedly spot a number of young men wearing pricy loafers without socks, while Ikebukuro has a higher concentration of feminine skirts than just about anywhere else in the city.

In Akihabara, though, it’s all about backpacks. As the world’s most bustling mecca of anime and video game retailers, visiting fans know that they’re going to find things they want to buy there, and dual-strapped backpacks provide more carrying capacity than messenger bags (and are usually cheaper to boot, which means more money left over for otaku goodies).

So on last Sunday, the man in the following photos, taken outside Akihabara Station, probably didn’t attract much attention by wearing a backpack, but he certainly got people looking by wearing absolutely nothing else.
