จุดเด่น
What it is
Hareruya is Japan's largest Magic: The Gathering retail chain, and the Akihabara branch is one of its Tokyo flagships, on floors 2F–5F of the Mikasa Building about a three-minute walk from Akihabara Station — one of the card-and-hobby stops in our full Akihabara guide. It sells MTG booster packs, value-priced singles and supplies, and buys cards.
The shop is built around organized play: events run every day, from weekday casual games to weekend tournaments and beginner workshops, supported by a free play space the store lists at 82 seats. Because Hareruya runs an English-language website with English event listings, it's comparatively foreigner-friendly. MTG is globally standardized, so cards bought here are tournament-legal worldwide and English-language Magic cards are widely available.

Nearby for other games
If you also play Pokémon, Hareruya's sister brand Hareruya2 runs a whole building dedicated to the Pokémon TCG a few minutes away. For a single stop covering multiple games, BIG MAGIC (Radio Kaikan 9F) and Card Rush Akihabara both carry Magic alongside Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh and more — see our where to play TCG in Tokyo guide for the full lineup and how to join an event as a foreigner.
