Last year, Gundam has surprised the world with its first giant Gundam Statue at Tokyo Odaiba Island. However, after some months, they demolished the magnificent Gundam Statue but that is not the end of the story. Yesterday, an official Gundam Cafe operated by Bandai has been opened in Akihabara on April 24, 2010 as reported by Gigazine Japan. The cafe has 144.2 square meters floor space and can seat up to 60 visitors. The specialties include “Jaburo Coffee”, the cafe’s original blend named after the headquarters of the Earth Federal Forces located in the heart of Brazil, and “Gun-Pla-yaki”, a take-out Manju-like confection modeled after the first Gundam plastic model released in 1980. The hours are 10:00 to 23:00 on weekdays, 8:30 to 23:00 on Saturdays, 8:30 to 21:30 on Sundays and holidays. “Bar Time” starts at 17:00, which means they possibility serve alcohol.
