NERiMA
Nerima (練馬区, Nerima-ku) is one of the 23 special wards of Tokyo, Japan. It is mainly a residential ward, located in the northwest of the Wards Area of Tokyo (東京都区部, Tōkyō-to kubu).
Nerima Ward is nicknamed the town of animation (アニメのまち, Anime no Machi), because the earliest anime studios started up in the ward, like Toei Animation and Osamu Tezuka's Mushi Production, making it the birthplace of anime, of the first color anime feature film The White Snake Enchantress, and of the first anime TV series Astro Boy. As of 2007, Nerima has the largest concentration of anime studios in Japan, followed by the neighboring Suginami Ward.Nerima has also served as the setting for several popular anime and manga series, including Doraemon, Ranma ½, Maison Ikkoku, Tokyo Ghoul, and Digimon Adventure.
In English, the ward translates “ward” as “city” and refers to itself as Nerima City, as do some of the other special wards of Tokyo. In Japanese, it still refers to itself as Nerima Ward.
As of 1 June 2025, the ward has an estimated total population of 749,451 people. It has 399,800 households, and 21.6% of the ward's population is elderly (over the age of 65). The total area of the ward is 48.08 km2, which gives a population density of 15,591 persons per km2.
