12+ Best Anime Stores and Cool Places in Shinjuku, Tokyo Japan🇯🇵 + Anime Figure Unboxing🛍

I can watch her channel over and over.. I wonder if she knows how relaxing and great her videos are.

[@SemekiIzuio]

I think it helps when she is speaking english and not using subtles so you can really feel the atmosphere and energy rather then being muted with some back ground music playing with subtles. To me at least, I appreciate that aspect. She also isnt shy to hide her face and really shows you around the block, feels authentic.

[@RiaNavarita]

always love the way your eyes lights up whenever you talk about the food

[@LufrenKuze]

Of all the content creators in Japan, you are by far the best, you really show a great variety of things for all tastes and not like the majority that doesn't come out of Dragon Ball.

[@selenaisakane]

Wow! Thank you so much✨ That’s very nice of you😊

[@user-ib5mx8ro4k]

These are terrible recommendations

[@vamp1ng]

I thought Akihabara was the only place to go for anime stuff. Without deep research, no one will even know these places exists!! Thanks for the content!!

[@dylanfurey2337]

As someone who went to Japan 3 times last year....you absolutely crushed the best places to go! Well done

[@gamingdoduo9157]

The rooftop garden totally gives me the same vibes as the garden from the Eevee episode in the original Pokémon anime 🥹😍😍

[@serchapi3061]

Love the pacing of your videos! You don't obsess over one thing or make cheesy jokes every other second. You're like a long lost friend giving a tour of your neighborhood. Keep up the good work! 😊

[@SoaringThief]

New Selena video! Thank you for showing us these cool places and as always appreciate the anime figure unboxing!

[@bcluett1697]

I was looking at Snoopy crystal puzzles not long ago online and after seeing Totoro puzzle I'm really tempted to do some looking again! SO nice.

[@Gnumanfan101]

I really like that you have a "in the field" section and then a recap of your purchases. It gives me a good idea of the things to look for and the places to go for the best merch!

[@luisu.r.8505]

Always love to see your recommendations on the stores and these were amazing Selena, thank you for sharing. I loved all the figures but the Totoro puzzle was really cool. Hope the leg is healing swiftly. Feel better.

[@selenaisakane]

Thank you so much😊 I’m feeling so much better now. The 3D Totoro puzzle was really fun to build and super cool✨

[@cloudyseven7187]

Amazing video! Everything is so cool👍 thanks Selena!

[@amannpriyamkhan5394]

As always , the video was very fun Getting to see all the anime merchs and the stores is so nice Well i hope your leg is ok

[@happy_camper]

I really like your videos! I am taking notes for my visit! My job will require me to go to Tokyo next year, and I’m very excited. I hope I have time for shopping while I’m there.

[@selenaisakane]

Thanks! I’m sure you’ll have a blast👍

[@carlm1775]

This is such a well-timed video! My family and I will be in Japan in a couple weeks and we were getting ready to bypass Shinjuku. What a mistake that would've been! Thank you so much! :)

[@thisismyexcitedfacee]

hello selena! thankyou so much for this video! i will be in tokyo in march and i will conventiently be staying in this area! i will be sure to check out all of these cool plaaces!~

[@InielChan]

thanks for your help!! i was searching interesting stores and café colaborations , and stores of retro things, for my next trip to japan in june , i like how interesting and diversity things your put in your channel

[@Yo_Kelz]

Seeing how happy you are in Japan really makes me want to move there. I want to be that happy too :)

[@dannymiller2818]

Thank you very much for your videos, enjoy them very much 😊! I hope your leg is fully recovered 😊!

[@Martin_TheCollector]

I've been watching most of your videos, they're fantastic! Love Gojira and wish I had a big epic figure. Especially the design from 80s-90s. The Minus One film was fun to see in theaters. Can't wait to add it to my bluray collection eventually.

[@TheManC96]

Great walking guide, love your Yu Yu Hakusho & Inuyasha minis shelf.☺

[@sasamiadachi]

Wow, what an adventure! Looking sharp, Selena! :D I really miss the arcade centers. There is one in a mall in my city, but it is nowhere near the size of the ones shown in this video. There used to be many more, but majority of the ones I used to visit went out of business. Great job on the UFO catchers! I love how you can request assistance from the store workers to catch the ones you really want. I love all stores, but especially the ones that specialize in figures and retro games! I guess there is an upside to me not living in Japan. I would be so broke otherwise. xD For some reason, that garden at the roof top reminds me of some of the scenes in Madoka Magica. ;) The editing and pacing of this video are so good. Thank you for your hard work!

[@selenaisakane]

Thank you✨ Omgosh you’re right! The garden does remind me of scenes from Madoka😆

[@DSiLemon]

Whenever a new video drops out, me and my sister know we are about to have some good dinner content. Chill, fun and amazing content! 🎉

[@thegeminiguy9371]

I can never find anime merch or video games other than the crane rooms and kabukicho tower when I'm in shinjuku. Awesome video and looks like I'll have to look harder next time.

[@rickguzman9463]

Great video. I just discovered your channel. Keep up the good work!

[@ZeroTwo-it4bm]

Couple minutes into the video and I have to say this video is very detailed!! Honestly, this gives me an idea of what to expect. Really good job Selena, keep it up. Thank you.

[@stevie9091]

Thank you for showing this. Absolutely perfect for my upcoming Japan trip! It really covers a wide varieties of anime stuff. I’m so happy! 😁

[@sethusk]

Wow, what an awesome MEGA video. It's no problem that this took a bit, it's so jam packed with content. I loved all the stores! I really want to go to that roof top garden too. My jaw dropped when you revealed what the kuji was. Sooooo cool! Thanks for another fantastic video!

[@selenaisakane]

Thank you! The rooftop garden is definitely a nice place to chill at✨ Godzilla is super cool😎

[@BaconLordBear]

Glad to hear your recovery is going well! Always enjoy the figure and merch hunts! Yellow submarine is one of my favorite shops as well, their card sleeve stock is always amazing

[@selenaisakane]

Thank you✨ Yeah I agree Yellow Submarine is awesome😊

Amazing! I’m visiting Japan soon, can’t wait to see all the cool stuff🤩

[@ronaldperez9606]

Selena I love your videos. Planning to go to Tokyo in Autumn and of course, I will go and get figures for my collection. What I like the most about this video is that you took the time to go to stores outside of Akiba. Thanks and keep on going with your videos.

I spent two weeks in Tokyo back in September. I stayed at Gracery and thought I explored Shinjuku pretty well, but after Kabukiocho Tower, I managed to miss everything else in this video. Guess I'll just have to go back and explore some more.

[@dekablue25]

loved going to yellow submarine, that small garden is so nice to go see and chill looking it at. Really did miss some of the places you showed. hope your leg is now better. i know how that feels as i broke my foot years ago

Hello Selena, this is my first time to watch your video. Its really good that i have to leave a comment to let you know, your pace and speed of the video is relaxing, clear and informative and without the loud music like most youtuber did. The steady flow of the shooting is really nice, which enable us to look clearly at the shop and the products. Really appreciated your hard work. Thank you and will keep watching your video starting now!

[@schwasel]

Great Video, shinjuku can be so confusing! Thank you

[@bigben1986]

I forgot which channel here on KZbin talked about if you go to Japan with high expectations of seeing a ton of anime, then this place isn’t for you because it doesn’t have that much. I was like “really?” So thank you for confirming that what that person said was false. Japan the home of anime has to have a ton of places that have figures, games etc etc. that other person must of been on drugs or something lol. Thank you for your awesome videos always!

[@gojirajp777]

Love your content finally something different 😊 Godzillaaaa 🎊🎉

Shopping in Japan looks so amazing, I would blow all my money in one day shopping, especially on some Tokusatsu Merch; that Godzilla looked amazing… also love watching your videos

Thank you for this informative video, I am traveling to Japan soon and I will definitely visit some of these shops!

I stayed in Shinjuku when I visited Japan in March and didn’t discover half the places on this list! I thought the nearest Animate and place with a decent amount of gachapon was Shibuya or Akihabara. Thanks for the video, wish I had known about these but if I go again and stay in Shinjuku would be sure to check these out.
