'''Kantō''' is a Japanese ''Smash'' region, coterminous with the traditional region of {{iw|wikipedia|Kantō}}, which includes the prefectures of Gunma, Tochigi, Ibaraki, Saitama, Tokyo, Chiba, and Kanagawa. The region is mostly coextensive with the Tokyo metropolitan area, which is considered the most populated urban region in the world, naturally translating to a very large pool of competitive ''Smash Bros.'' players and tournaments hosted; consequently, Kantō is regarded by many as the strongest region in the whole world, rivaled within Japan only by {{b|Kansai|region}}, and is the region where most of the largest supermajors outside of North America (such as Umebura, Kagaribi and EVO Japan) are held.

Additionally, it is the home of ''Smash'' creator [[Masahiro Sakurai]] and original developer [[HAL Laboratory]].
