Ōta-ku, not otaku

This week I add an entry for Ōta-ku 大田区. one of the 23 ku (wards) of the urban core of Tōkyō.

With this I now have only Katsushika-ku left to do and I'll have entries for all 23 ku. However that will have to wait for me to find a reference to it in an official English translation of a manga or anime (fan translations DON'T COUNT).

QUICK! Japanese readers! Someone, start drawing a manga set in the 23rd ward! Gilles, I'm sure you can find SOMEONE in the industry to translate it.

Always helpful, DSWBT

Actually I just need someone to license Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Kōen Mae Hashutsujo and I'll be able to add an entry even before they issue it.
