Introduction

Ikebukuro West Gate Park is located at the west exit of the city. Although it is not very large in size, it has been selected as a filming location for many Japanese TV dramas and anime works. In the anime work "Durarara!!", Ryugamine Mikado and Kida Masaomi had a dispute near the park. In addition, there is a Japanese TV drama with the same name that takes Ikebukuro as the main background, depicting delinquent youth groups that frequent the area. The two works have similarities, and interested viewers can go and explore for themselves.
