Definitely worth checking if you are into gaming but not video games since this is not that kind of venue.

I am going to do my best to be as fair as possible here. I come from out of town to visit Anime…read moreParadaisu because we live a couple of hours away from anything that offers the type of product you can find here. The service has always been great over our four years of coming to this shop. I thought I left a review back when I first visited, and I was sure I left it five stars. I still think pretty highly of AP, but it seems like there has been a big shift. When we first visited, it felt like I could find wider variety of products across many genres of anime and manga. Today, that selection feels quite small. I feel like if you're a fan of things outside of mainstream anime and manga, Anime Paradaisu is probably going to disappoint you. I could be wrong of course, but it feels like a mainstream only shop, which is more than fair, but not really for my taste anymore. The store is beautiful and comfy, and filled with plenty of product. That's not the issue I have, it just feels different from what it used to be. And that is disappointing.

We stumbled upon Anime Paradaisu on social media while searching high and low for a shop that…read morecarried anime figures and manga outside of the "most trendy" animes out there. We did not read any prior reviews because I prefer to walk in blind vs having high or low expectations. This store is about a two-hour drive for us and I will say it was completely worthwhile. While the shop does not have a major selection of anime items, they are able to search and order items you are looking for (my understanding) at least. The amount of items on hand is enough to keep your interest though.. I say this because of the first review on this page, which was a 1 star. While the review is opinion based, I don't know what the reviewer was expecting in such a niche market. No, we weren't necessarily greeted right away when entering the store as there were a couple of other customers inside, but as we were looking around, the lone worker on site gave me a quick rundown of what they are able to help with. When the shop emptied out a little, the gentleman and I had a pretty good conversation about how the shop came to be and how they managed to survive during a pandemic, while being such a niche genre. They have a customer in me, and I will 100% be back. I walked out spending a decent amount of money for my first trip and I feel like I got out with a good amount of merchandise that I haven't been able to find online.

The bald guy treated me like a criminal looking at cards. The whole experience is very uncomfortable and the people are standoffish. Why work here if you're miserable? Not sure if it's because of race, but Ive never felt this uncomfortable at another card collectible store in this area. Only the blonde and blue-haired girl are always nice.

The store itself is also really pretty and stays clean, which makes browsing even more enjoyable.

TLDR: Excellent anime shop in Raleigh. Large selection of anime, manga, and k-pop…read more I was so excited to hear about Animazed opening in Raleigh. This shop offers a wide selection of anime merchandise, manga, k-pop, and snacks. The small, yet long shop is packed with items. Many of the items I have seen before at anime conventions and the prices are similar. Pricier than you can find online. However I like the benefit of purchasing these items at a local shop year round rather than online or at annual conventions. The store is fairly organized. They have a large amount of merchandise and organize it by anime and item type with a few mixed bins. Manga is in the middle, figurines and posters along the walls, candy in the front to the left, etc. Most of the items are price marked. Prices seemed to be missing from the pillows and blankets. Overall it is a unique shop filling a niche missing from Raleigh previously.

After looking through for a bit we spotted a giant stuffy that was the same as a smaller one we already had for my daughter, so I opted to get it for her.
