Anime?

Jul 02, 2006 15:51

This is a message to all my friends and the passer byers. . . . I need to know what people are looking for in an anime/manga store. I want to know what titles you think they should sell and what candy/trend they should sell as well. I would love to get feed back on this as soon as possible. I want to have what my customers may want or need.

You're not asking for much are you...? I can tell you that Trinity Blood and Bleach are going to be huge. Both are being released over here in the fall finally. If you can get your hands on the Trinity Blood art books, those will go like hotcakes. If from no one else but me and Adam. :) Soundtracks are a good idea and toys, accessories, all that good stuff. Unfortunately, you will have to keep in mine that you will be competing with places like Borders and all the other bookstores for manga and then places like Best Buy and FYE for the actual shows, so try to carry things that can't easily be found at those places if you can. Scope out the competition. 8) As far as candy, everybody loves pocky. Anyway, hope I helped a little. Oh, and I have to tell you: In November, if everything keeps going right, I'll be cosplaying at Youmacon in Troy as Esther Blanchett from Trinity Blood. I'm uber excited.

Actually. . . there are NO anime stores currently open in sandusky since Suncoast went out of business. Also. . .I refuse to shop at FYE because they treat their employees like shit. For example. . they are the one's who bought out Suncoast and Sam Goody. Those are the fuck heads that gave Barb, Bunny, and the rest of the suncoast crew 4 days notice of store being closed. Those are the assholes that never offered Barb and Bunny severence pay nor ever gave a reason for closing the store. They gave us absolute shit, not to mention never calling the mall or our warehouse to let them know that we were closing. They are all fucking scum bags and I refuse to give them any of my business. Not too mention that all the people who bought anime from Suncoast is also boycotting FYE and has given support to our store. :: big evil grin :: I'll fucking stomp Corperate America. Suck on these balls, asshole ( ... )
