    Wall of adorable backpacks!

    I walked by Animation Magic and I was pulled back into the store by the colorful sign and Pokémon and Unicorn greeters at the entrance. As I entered the magical store, I was enveloped in an array of squishy animals, anime, and more! This is definitely a fun store. I continued into the store and I was asked by employees if I needed anything. Happy and courteous people work here. The store was crowded. It's crowded because being in here brings a smile on your face. A perfect store to buy a birthday gift, a get well gift, a Valentine's Day gift and so much more! I focused on some anime banks here. So adorable and I like banks. I believed the price was reasonable. The only reason I held back from picking one up is that it was made of plastic. I'm old school and I like ceramic banks. This was a magical adventure for me today. I walked out with a smile and happy heart. Thanks Animation Magic.

    My daughter and I like coming in here to check out the new stuff they have. It's different every time I come in here and usually it's been awhile. So e things in the store are pricey and others are not. Depends on what you get. I definitely like looking around the store and it's always so clean. There are ladies inside the store to assist you. Located inside the mall on the second floor.

    Looks like everything was in stock and surprisingly we saw the big into energy labubu. There was fake labubu as well. But everything was pretty decent.

    Ohmygosh I'm so happy to still see Animation Magic here in Pearlridge Center. They have been my savior for countless of gifting when I needed that something and there were time I didn't know what but their adorable selections just spoke to me. Maybe it's because this particular location is massive than what I'm used to it feels much more sparse and not as much choices in characters as I'm used to seeing. Nevertheless very well organized and kawaii everything you have always helped me out if my last minute indecisiveness pickle...thank you!!

    They hide 1 star reviews. Can't see my previous one when filtered, shady practice. They make sure you leave so they can close earlier than the other stores, will loiter around you till you go.

    Animation Magic has a lot of interesting collectibles, and harder to find items. They have especially interesting Lego figurines. It was quite crowded in the store so we did not stay long. My husband wanted to get a Lego figurine and my son got a dinosaur. A lot of the smaller items are behind locked glass cases, and they hold the item for you at the cash register. I would assume it would be so that you didn't steal it! The checkout area was cluttered with a lot of cash register receipts and seemed quite disorganized. Customer service is OK, just not typical of what you would normally find in retail.

    The lady was pretty rude. She was very rushing and had an airpod in her ear the whole time. Stuff pretty overpriced.

    5 Stars Mini Q at Pearlridge - Outstanding Customer Service!…read more It was a pleasure shopping at the Mini Q at Pearlridge. Employee "Kaitlynn" did a wonderful job with customer service. She helped my 11-year-old son with the Warhammer tiny models, taking the time to explain everything needed to get started in painting. Her thorough and detailed explanations really made a difference. "Kaitlynn" was incredibly authentic and genuine - it's rare to find such dedication and care in customer service these days. I really appreciate her outstanding work and wanted to applaud her for it. If you ever visit this store, be sure to ask for "Kaitlynn" - a sweet, hardworking young woman with exceptional customer service skills. Aloha!

    First off, I have actually been shopping here since they first opened in Mililani Mauka. This…read morespecific issue only started when they moved to Pearlridge Mall. I was hesitant on posting this review, but unfortunately this certain situation keeps on happening and I am not going to stand for it anymore. Me and my partner frequently go to this shop whenever we are wondering the mall, and almost every time we have gone and shopped, we are almost ALWAYS being watched... it is very disturbing and disappointing seeing that it seems like they are profiling us. Things to note about us: my partner ALWAYS wears small fanny packs, and me, a purse that is closed at all times. We wear casual clothes, and yet, they continue to stare at us, and follow us around the store. Of course, we had NO INTENTIONS of stealing, and yet them watching us makes us feel like criminals. There should not be an excuse of the employees being "too shy" because this is inappropriate behavior, and again, makes me feel very uncomfortable, leading me to my next point. I will no longer shop here again. The amount of times we have caught employees literally WATCHING US is unacceptable, especially since I have previously worked retail myself, and am always frustrated with theft as well, but just choosing random people to watch without any actual ques or a real reason is just disgusting. There are things that you are trained to watch for when you work in retail, and it seems like there is a lack of that. It makes me sad because I loved your products and what you had to offer, but I am sorry, if I can't shop here without being watched like a hawk, then I can just take my business elsewhere. Please train your employees better and train them correctly on watching for theft in the right way. I hope no one else has to experience this. :(

Cuteness is definitely found here along with fun stationeries and lots of hair accessories though this location in the Waimalu Plaza has the load of BT21 items I've ever seen in a single shop for its cozy size. Pink Box and N.Cat do share the same business as you see the sign on this store as well but it was nice to visit here as they do have slightly different merchandise from the other Kaneohe and Ala Moana location and with lots of free parking making it an easy stop to shop for various reasons...lol! They got great deals to bundle for multiple item purchases so if you're grabbing one for you grab one for someone and the service is very helpful if you're looking for a particular character or item. Thank you!

    Thank you for my new friend Susan for getting me out of the house today. If not for her, I never…read morewould have discovered Pink Box. Not a large store, but they stock something for every taste. So many hair accessories, backpack accessories, stationery & pens, plushies and dolls for little and not-so-little girls! Wide variety of BTS items for everyone! While there, teenagers, tweens, millennials, gen-x-ers alike were browsing. The staff are very friendly and helpful. (I needed translation of something written in Korean.) And they didn't kick me out for taking a ton of photos. I expected to pay a lot for the items I chose, but the prices are very reasonable and some, were downright shockingly low!

Don't let the coffin corner walking fool you if you look and dig hard enough you'll find something to love. As I went for funkos I was suprised to see grails I had ever.

The staff are super friendly and I appreciated the discount for Venmo payments as well. The comic selection is also as expansive if not more and I'm sure the same goes there just don't expect a lot of retro since they did mention to me stuff like dark horse Star Wars comics are too hard to find and keep in so I assume other retro ones are the same way.

Thankfully 808 Collectibles had just what I needed, so I made it into a Sunday afternoon adventure to come in. This is a small shop located in a mall building along Kamehameha in Pearl City. It's across from Pearl Highlands Center, but it's easy to get to from either side of the road. They have limited parking in front shared with a small shop, bar, and a few other businesses. This shop is on the second floor, toward the left. The owner Art (Arthur) was super friendly on the phone and got back to me quickly about what I needed. On arrival he was recommending different comic stories to a customer. There was a steady stream of people coming in, so I assume he has some regular customers. Every inch is filled with comics (new and older ones), Funko Pops!, and various collectibles and statues. Prices are clearly marked; he takes cash, Venmo, and credit. If you're a fan of pop culture and other fun things, this is a worthwhile place to stop. I hope to come in again soon.
