// ABOUT THIS SHOP

Trading Card Shop 193 (pronounced Ikkyu-san) Akihabara Store is a large shop on the 2nd floor of the Imai Building. Its defining features are a play space that ranks among the biggest in the area and a spacious interior. Beyond Yu-Gi-Oh!, Pokemon and MTG, it carries a wide range of titles including Dragon Ball Super Card Game, Union Arena and Shadowverse Evolve, with plenty of singles and supplies on the shelves. Notably, on some days it opens as early as 7 a.m., a real draw for players who want to get the newest sets in Akihabara as fast as possible. It has a sister store in Osaka (Nipponbashi) and runs the 193net online shop. Located about a 4-minute walk from Suehirocho Station, its generous play space makes it a good fit for players who want to settle in for matches and deck tuning. Buying is available too, so it also works for sorting out your deck after a session. Payment options are broad, covering not just cash but credit cards, transit IC e-money and QR-code payments. By the shop's own account, tournaments and events run almost every day, so it is easy to find opponents here. Its supply selection is also deep, making it a place worth visiting when you are hunting down out-of-print cards.
