Nerima

[2] On October 1, 1932, the town of Nerima and the villages of Kami-Nerima, Naka-Arai, Shakujii, and Ōizumi were incorporated into Old Tokyo City.

Grant Heights had been Narimasu airfield under the Imperial Japanese Army until the end of World War II.

Neighboring wards are Itabashi (to the east), Suginami, Toshima and Nakano (to the south), as well as the cities of Musashino (to the southwest) and Nishi-Tokyo (to the west).

[11] Nerima is the setting of Rumiko Takahashi's long running and popular manga and anime series Ranma ½ and Urusei Yatsura.

As one of the first series in either media to achieve widespread popularity in the English speaking world, Ranma introduced Nerima to western audiences, with several locations recognizable as backgrounds.

It is also the setting for four popular anime and manga series, Your Lie in April, Tokyo Ghoul, Rent-A-Girlfriend, and Doraemon.
