Nice little shop for collectibles and pokemon merch. Staff is friendly with great smiles. Had a great shopping experience here.

Had a terrible online experience here. My Items were sent to the wrong address and then returned to the sender. I was only partially refunded because I paid most of the bill with shop cash that I had that is now expired. This business is no longer answering my emails now. I'm only getting back $3.70 and NONE of the figures I ordered! I will NEVER purchase from this unprofessional business again! If I could give them less than one star, I would. Don't buy from here if you don't want to risk losing your money! read more

Small store but great items! Their price for the smiskis are good ($13) I always make a stop to see what's new here read more

Amazing store, has a lot of cute stuff! Customer service was exceptional, very welcoming

Wide selection and variety of blind boxes and toys. The prices are much more reasonable than other places I've been to. Definitely recommend you check them out! read more

Really cute selection and nice staff!! I got a blind box and they're offering a free gacha play for a review. Cute vibe!

Awesome pochacco merch. The blind boxes are super fun. Many cute stickers, stuffed animals, and keychains with lots of sanrio merch!

Small shop, but lots of different blind boxes that I typically cannot find anywhere else! I visited because I saw on their website that they had this super cute cat blind box that would've been a perfect gift but shipping is a flat $5.99 so I was hoping to buy it in store to save on shipping costs. Unfortunately they don't sell that blind box in store and it's online only (which is odd since it was shipped from that location? So idk what the deal is there). They sell opened characters as well which is nice if you don't wanna gamble on a blind. Wish they allowed you to trade though as the prices are the same :( Overall, a nice store and staff was nice! I just wish I could've left with something. read more

Well stocked in the alien stage blind boxes every time I go! Workers are always helpful and kind with each visit!

Their website online said they had the catbell series in stock. Their reply online was also that they currently have it available. I drive all the way to the mall and the worker says they don't have any. Apparently they don't update the website anymore. Unfortunate waste of time but the worst part is getting my hopes up that they still had the cats. read more

The service is great! There's usually one person in the front as the cashier! There's a variety to choose from such as Pokémon, Stitch, Digimon, Yugioh, Sanrio and more! I would say that this store in the Santa Anita Mall is the BEST bang for your buck! Usually, Smiskis costs $15+ but at this store you get it for $12.99 each! HURRY AND GRAB your blind boxes! TIP: Nemo Stop is at the second floor near JINS eyewear and across from Sunmerry Bakery! In addition, there's restrooms right next door! They will also give out a free card/stickers if you follow on Instagram!! read more

Amazing store full of lots of variety!! Employees are so sweet and filled with lots of fun blond boxes.

Always has the cutest blind boxes and trinkets available! Staff is always super sweet and helpful

Love this place. Best prices and if you buy four blind boxes you get to spin the big gacha machine! Other stores up charge everything but the prices here are fantastic. Don't come here!!(Trying to gate keep) read more

Juan thanks for all your help!! I'm not caught up with the trending surprises boxes but I wanted to buy a couple of boxes to surprise the kids with a treat and Juan was so helpful, and walked me through what's popular and trending. I really appreciated that! Instead of walking around in circles I was able to purchase and get out at a reasonable manner xD! read more

very cute store with so much to choose from!! i rleally like the ambience in the store and the employees seem very nice

Been to this location after learning about it from anime expo a while back. The service here has always been awesome with helpful peeps with excellent suggestions and a great variety of merchandise I'm interested in. They carry many gatcha sets that I'm personally interested in and since I hate gatcha at the same time I always buy the entire case to finish a set with the exception the chaser (special variant) sometimes break it just to avoid FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out). The store offers a 10% discount when you guy the whole set. I met a awesome rep Luis which was fun, super enthusiastic and actually took the time to help me find everything I wanted. Then at this years wondercon 2025 and I didn't even realize I was at a Neko Stop booth and Luis is there again! Luis rocked the convention floor and I ended up visiting this location to buy more sets that I didn't find at the convention. Luis is proof awesome service with a personality builds loyalty of customers and yes I'll definitely be back and wish Neko Stop success. Oh btw that annoying red duck thing is at the store entrance now lol. I highly recommend all of you visit this store as it's a carries the spirit of anime hunting. read more

Great place!! I bought so many toys there and luv a lot I highly recommend to everyone

Amazing customer service, one time I was here and was really worried about not getting my cousin the right gift from a blind box, and they hooked me UP! Value at its finest, and the figures were pristine. read more

Staff is cool, lots of variety of blind boxes of all kinds cool spot to look for things that might be sold out elsewhere

Ran into Luis working the Neko Stop booth at Wondercon this year and came to see him at the store. He recommended and showed us some Sanrio sets I wasn't aware of and helped us find box sets corresponding to the displays. We'll definitely come visit him here again. There is a great variety of blind box and other anime/Japanese pop culture collectibles. They also carry various loose Sanrio goods, QPosket, and keychains. The keychains are really cute and often feature liquid centers. One of the best perks of this shop is that you get a 10% discount off purchasing entire blind box sets. Some (not all) of the display items are also available for purchase so if you're lucky you'll find the item you're looking for without having to crack open a single blind box. read more

amazing selection kind workers lots of good cat stuff!!!! lots of blind box selection

i love this store so mich i always go crazy here with my girlfriend every-time i come would definitely recommendcoming here

Super cute shop offering Japanese brand items for sale such as some from Sanrio and some from Anime related items. They were hosting a Spring break sale I'm assuming when I walked into browse today. The store was extremely organized and makes it easy to find what you need or don't need. I'd stop by here again in the future when I've broken a keychain or some thing....there existed a keychain sale today but just recently bought some Super Mario ones.... read more

What an AMAZING shop!! My bf and I love collecting and opening blind boxes. It's such a bad thing to spend money on but addicting and very fun! It's always cool to get something as a surprise especially if the set has some really cool ones. Until you get to the point where you want only one thing from the set and spend so much only to not get it LOL. We came across this shop after having dinner (but also browsed while waiting for our table). They have tons of blind boxes! We get the Pokémon re-ment ones pretty often so it's nice to finally find a place that has multiple sets and at a great price! We've been to other shops and they really overprice it but this place is great! I can't remember what the deal was but if you spend a certain amount on blind boxes, you get coins for their gacha machine for an extra freebie blind box. I love places that do this! They really grab you in with it. Cute little shop but you'll find a bunch of great figures and even good for gifts! Can't wait to come back! IG: @ammysalamii read more

Love the shop and all its product selections. All the girl employees were the sweetest and kindest while shopping. 10/10 recommend for blind boxes as well! read more

Sells REAL licensed goods. Really good prices for blind boxes and they are an authorized retailer for sonny angels and smiskis. There is a wide range of different products. The employees are friendly and knowledgeable about what they are selling. Even when people ask if they sell labubus the employees don't get upset and tell customers to just read the sign. read more

Amazing store that is located in the second floor! I had to go in to check it out as soon as I see the kawaii or anime-related display and I wasn't disappointed. I wasn't planning on buying anything but I couldn't resist the Pokémon blind boxes. Just bought one of the Terrarium Collection 7 (Pikachu and Growlithe) for $17.63. I may get another one the next time I come by. read more

Neko Stop! You can't miss this kawaii store with their cat mascot in the iconic ban symbol. They're located on the second floor of the Westfield Santa Anita mall. At first they were a kiosk with a couple of racks, but have upgraded to a brick and mortar store. They also have stores in Burbank and Little Tokyo. This is your one stop shop for all things cute, Japanese, kawaii, and moe (yeah I said cute in 3 different ways, don't sue me). They have a plethora of blind boxes (anime, video game, kawaii mascots, collectibles, animals, etc), cute character socks, clothing (Poke'mon/Ghibli sweaters and shirts, seifuku school girl style tops, etc), stationery, patches, buttons, plushies, lanyards, keychains, jewelry (earrings, bracelets, necklaces), gift items (greetings cards, etc) and other miscellaneous accessories (hats and such). There's a cute mirror in the back to check yourself out in your new drip and a neat manga wall (hell yeah I'm big enough of a weeb to identify every single series on there lmao). Some current sales included 10% off if you purchase the entire blind box (if you're a collector or have people to split with) and 3 pairs of socks for $10. Some anime items they had were from: Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, the Promised Neverland, Sailor Moon, Poke'mon, Ghibli, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, One Piece, HxH, DBZ, Detective Conan, etc. Most of it being Poke'mon, Demon Slayer, and JJK. For video games, they had Kirby, Animal Crossing, and surprisingly enough, Identity V. Cute character merch included San-X characters like Rilakkuma & Sumikko Gurashi and Sanrio characters like Hello Kitty and gang, Aggretsuko, etc. Be sure to shop around and check the prices though because I have seen some of those earrings on Shein/Romwe for cheaper prices, though I'm not sure if the jewelry here is imported and authentic. Same goes for their clothing since I also have seen some of those pieces on Taobao. However, if you're in a pinch and gotta get a cute gift for a cutie in your life, this is the place to go! read more

this place draws you in so easily ... do not go if you are prone to spending too much money on cute things! neko stop mostly sells blind box figurines, where there are a number of choices the figurine inside can be, but you don't know which one it is until you buy it. they also have some cute themed apparel and earrings that are popular as well. their blind box collections are updated consistently, so you will always find something new each time you go. they have a variety of characters ranging from sanrio, kirby, pokémon, genshin impact, spongebob, and more, so there's something there for everyone! i got drawn in by the sanrio summer strawberry collection this time, so be forewarned that this might make you spend all your money ;-; read more

Damn, these Pokémon blind boxes at Neko Stop! Neko Stop is located right next to Sunglass Hut on the second level towards JC Penny. Honestly, I didn't think about stopping in. When it comes to Kawaii Stores, I usually pass by them. However, the Pokémon blind boxes drew me in and I ended up getting two of them. The first time here, I was just checking out the various merchandises (disappointed they didn't have anything Hamtaro). By my second time, the Pokémon blind boxes were calling me again. Not gonna lie, they're hella expensive, but the two that I blindly picked were worth it since it was both Pokémon that I wanted if I couldn't have Dreaming Case 3 with Pikachu or Galarian Ponyta and Terrarium Collection 7 with Pikachu and Growlithe. Am I gonna splurge on more boxes? Hmmm, maybe, maybe not.... I also purchased an Eevee (with its various evolutions) Pocket Monster keychain holder too. Yup, my second time shopping here was a good one! By the way, if you purchase anything here, it's considered non-refundable and so, shop and buy carefully! read more
