I believe that the city of Tokyo, Japan in the Akihabara neighborhood, should consider to start a Hall Of Fame in the field of anime. There have been so many anime shows from Japan and which, even been so popular. Many anime series have also been distributed in other countries around the world and dubbed in their respected languages.
Tokyo has been popular for maid cafes and there's even a cosplay store with more than ten floors of cosplay costumes and accessories. So it should be time for the city to begin an Anime Hall Of Fame with these inductees that are posted below.
Of course each summer more would be inducted and if this becomes a reality, in addition to the inductees added, there should be some of the notable Japanese voice actors and actresses that did their characters or did a voice role from that anime series.
Let's keep our fingers crossed and whoever visits Japan and wants to start this project, should do so and they'll make great business!
