An underground guide to Tokyo

I have just found this link to an 'underground' guide to Tokyo. This guide mentions lots of wierd and wonderful places that the Lonely Planet and Rough Guide fail to mention.... A parasite museum?!?! Anyway I think we will stick to Fumi's advice....

Just in case you were wondering where Hamamatsu is... This is the first simple map I have found that includes Hamamatsu and Tokyo.
