Takadanobaba, a town of academic students
Takadanobaba is located between the huge terminal stations of Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.
The area is known as a “student town” with many universities, vocational schools, and prep schools, including Waseda University, attracting many young people.
It is an area full of miscellaneous feelings that is a little retro and mixed with the energy of young people, which is different from the image of Tokyo = cutting edge. It is also a fierce battleground for izakaya (Japanese-style pubs) and ramen restaurants, where you can enjoy cheap and delicious food ranging from set menus to authentic Asian and ethnic dishes. There are supermarkets around the station, making it easy to live in the city center. The whole town is full of supportive atmosphere for students.
