Hello. I have moved to Tokyo for studies. I live close to Akihabara. What I was wondering if you guys know a club, people or place to get some warhammer (both 40k and fantasy) games. I have searched the internet and haven't been very successful. I know there is a hobby center but it is more than an hour away. I thought there might be a good place around the Yamanote line. In Akihabara there is a decent place called Yellow Submarine. The only downside is you have to bring the other with you. You can't just come there alone and expect a game. But if I find other intressted persons it would be a good place to play at. And local GW is sure nice but the downside is that for non-beginners can only play there during special events.. So thoughts?

There's a forum here on DakkaDakka for meeting other players.

I'm not aware of anything very central.

There must be some players in the US bases in the Zama-Machida area.

JIGG is western orientated general games group.

You also might try contacting Sir Motor, who is a Japanese member of DakkaDakka. He is in Kanagawa.

Getting around the Kanto area is not too bad if you are prepared to ride a train for an hour or so.

I know there's a big group in Nagoya, and that there are players in and around Tokyo. Not sure how you'd go about getting in touch though.

There is the Nagoyahammer website and
the Yokosuka 40k gaming club on facebook

I've seen and reply your message today.
So sorry for late.

Here is a blog by a wargamer in the Tokyo area. I discovered it by accident.
