I am a manga fan since I was a little kid. I like to hang out in the comic shop a lot back where I lived before. Since I moved here. I haven't seen any really manga bookshops around. Until I visited this shop. It really gave me a feeling like home. Brilliant!
Although the shop is not really close to the city center, but it is one of the best Mange bookstores. I am glad that i have discovered it. It not so difficult to find the shop, you can take the bus M49 from the S/U-Bahn station Zoologist Garden, 10-15 mins you will be there (or the U7). There is a very sweet Hello Kitty face on the top of the shop, kinda made it hard to miss.
Like I mentioned before, the shop doesn't look so big outside, but once you are inside, you can see it got lots of things. You can find the classic gashapon machines, cute toys, sweet stuffed animals, popular figures and so on. Of course lots of Manga books. They are all be really well organized and most of them in really good and completed collection. It's also gay friendly, they got the section for some gay Manga. The whole store really focusing just selling Japanese style comic books (which Manga)....Wait, I think I should say "they are selling the Japanese Manga culture" is better. Beside books, they also have a area for cosplay costumes and two Purikura Photo Booths (Japanese Sticker Photo Booth), you can also find figures from Godzilla to the classic Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball! It's kinda pricey, but true fans won't care. They also selling Anime series and movie. Honestly, what a Manga paradise here.
Well, Most of the mangas are in German though. They also offer some English mangas, but it's really not that much. It's not a problem, if you also can speak German. The employees there are really friendly and helpful.
Thus, I became the fans of this place. For sure I will come back again. Thumbs up!
