Anyone got any supporting info confirming or denying the situation? And hints about anywhere one can see them (I suppose Akihabara is a possibility). This was, I think, a fairly popular tourist destination.
I was there in September and you can see them all over Shinjuku and Tokyo Center/Ginza.
Did not have a chance to go to Harajuku
