Went to Kitaro Chaya, a teahouse in the Chuo-ku area themed from the manga/anime Gegege No Kitaro. The whole area was surrounded by shrines and little knick knack shops. Have you heard of Gegege no Kitaro? It's a famous Manga/Anime from the 1960's about a ghost boy who tries to mend relationships between other ghosts and humans. I consider it a horror comedy and my favorite character (besides Kitaro <3) is probably Kitaro's Father - who is actually an eyeball. His father used to be a ghost with a full body but after he died, his body rotted and he was resurrected as his own eyeball. The manga is a must read, especially for people who are into Japanese folktales and old ghost stories like myself!

You can find more information about it here!
