About the company
The name, "Toranoana", comes from the name of the professional wrestling company of the same name in the anime series Tiger Mask.
In 1996, the company was established as a yugen kaisha. Soon the company expanded, with Akihabara as a center of this expansion, to many places in Tokyo and other large cities. Then in 2003, the company was converted into a kabushiki kaisha.
List of stores
Currently there are 15 stores in Japan, three of which closed a few years ago.
