Description
Hondo City, like Mega City One, is a giant future metropolis with heavy population density that crams its population into City Blocks. It appears to stretch from Hokkaido to Wakayama, according to the Shimura strip. The Hondo City Blocks reflect a more aesthetic, manga-like sense of design than the functional squat structs in Mega City One, and exist side by side with traditional wooden houses. Several islands off the coast of Hondo live a traditional 20th Century rural Japanese lifestyle. Hondo is one of the most technologically advanced of the Megacities, and its energy needs are supplied by orbiting nuclear power satellites. Underneath this is Undercity, the decayed and buried remains of the original Tokyo that are crawling with powerful oni-like mutants.
