My son wanted to stop here since he is a huge fan of anime. The guy working here was pretty cool and helping my son find that perfect thing to take back home. There is such a variety of collector items that I feel would be impossible to find one item out of the store because everything is super cool. The shop is a bit small but they have so many plushies, figurines, keychains, stickers, and other souvenirs that are themed. There are Pokemon items, Hello Kitty items, anime items from One Piece, Demon Slayer, Spy Family, and so many others. Prices are not too bad unlike other stores in LA, so that was good. If you are shopping and cannot simply choose, you can buy these themed grab bags which are a surprise. Such a cool concept and reminds me of the grab bags from Sanrio. If we ever come back to Portland, I am sure we will be back! read more

Really cute store with lots of great items anime and Pokemon related. The workers there are friendly and we even got free stickers just for stopping by. The store is about medium sized and I think they even mentioned they're in the process of adding a 3D printer upstairs. Everything is priced a little more expensive than we're used to, but still a great store with a lot of options. Parking is available on the street. You can pay at the parking meters or with the parking kitty app. read more

Such a cool little store, with a bunch of nostalgic characters from animes from my childhood. Also, a lot of funny twist on those characters for stickers, toys, figurines, and more. The workers are very friendly although the place is so packed and the toys are super awesome. read more

One of the rare stores you can find anime figurines, Pokemon plushies, and pop art all at once. It's hard to miss the Totoro in front, and even harder to miss the bins of plushies sorted by color inside. All my friends who visit Portland love coming to this store. It's such a cozy and beautiful place and there's so many types of pop products they sell. I once spotted the owner (next time I'll say hi!). While some items are a bit pricier, there's something for everyone. Will be returning! read more

I had been wanting to come check this place out when I saw it on social media. The store is located on the opposite side of the Pine Street Market building. There are so many plushies, stickers, figurines, keychains, and etc. I got some cute Pokémon stickers and a blind box. I saw a poster of Cardcaptors, but I didn't see anything else of this anime. read more

Great selection of anime fan goods! I love the custom artwork by the owner that blends characters together from popular series.

THIS STORE IS SO DANG CUTE!!!! When entering, the staff unlocks the door for you which I appreciated and found reasonable given the location. I was so excited to visit this shop after seeing a video on TikTok. They have so many cute stuffed Pokémon, figures, stickers, studio ghibli, etc. The prices were reasonable and fair. Definitely give this shop a visit if you're looking for a gift for someone or even yourself! read more

Stumptown Otaku - Toy Stores Near Me - Portland, Oregon

This place is the best when it comes to anime and Asian figurine collecting! When you first walk in you are greeted with an enthusiastic "Hello! How can we help you? Oh and how do you feel about dogs?" My initial reaction was oh they're nice and pet friendly that's cool! No they have an amazing dog named Emma! YOU MUST PET EMMA OR NO ENTRY! Jk jk. The store is well organized and you are able to find things relatively well and if you can't well don't worry their amazing staff helps out with a ton! This was the first time shopping here and I appreciate all the help and service y'all provided! Will be coming back asap! read more

One of my new favorite small businesses! My favorite thing there is probably all their stickers. They have a lot of pokemon and anime themed stickers as well as crosses (like Spy Family x Pokemon) with the cutest art. I'm a sucker for stickers so I was so delighted to find them! The giant totoro outside is what brought me in and a cute feature as well. They have little plushes, figurines, art, claw machines, a few Japanese snacks. Great gift shop for sure! Nice service too. We bought a canvas art piece and they were so nice to wrap it up and check with us to make sure it was ok. They also offered to print things as well if one wasn't in stock. Location in downtown makes parking a challenge, but well worth a visit. Across the street from Pine Street Market which is reviving with new restaurants (great day right there - eat something at the Market, maybe stop by Saturday Market, go to Stumptown Otaku!) read more

This place is so cute. They had so many different things inside. I bought a One Piece keychain bag where you get a mystery keychain of someone from the One Piece pirates. They have different machines where they might have small plushies or figurines and you have to try to get them by using coins. It was very clean and well organized. You can also find Demon Slayer figurines, Jujutsu Kaisen and others. If you love plushies and figurines you have to check this place out. read more

If my daughters could have designed and stocked a store, it would look exactly like this. We walked out with a knit Totoro, a suction cup stuffy Totoro for the car, an Aerodactyl stuffy, a Totodile stuffy, a load of stickers for the cooler featuring Gudatama cheeks, Sanrio characters and Pokémon camping. We also got alllll the sets of legos of the cutest little street village and they all connect. Ramen house, tea house, sushi shack, seafood shack etc. We got some special Pokémon crashes style figurines, like a Greninja Pickachu. We did the 4 tokens Naruto cat machine and I got the main character! It was endless, everything was so tempting to buy! This was the perfect place to take my eldest while she visited! The ONLY downside is that they added mini claw machines the day AFTER my eldest left, haha! She screenshot an IG story from the store and was so sad that she missed them! Upside, we'll be coming here again to test our skills! We would have rummaged their snack section if we hadn't just eaten a huge lunch! But they had all sorts of drinks and snacks! Lastly, the store usually has a running raffle and the prize is always amazing. read more

I had originally written this review on Yelp in much shorter form and deleted it. I left a review on Google Maps after discovered a Pokemon plush I had bought from him was a fake. The owner responded to my review with hostility and false claims, so I edited it to add more facts. First of all, the shop literally sells plush that were never made by the official Pokemon company, like eeveelution Mimikyus. So they cannot be official Pokemon products, because official versions were never made. They aren't even real Pokemon! They are a fan creation. For my case, I had purchased from the store a Mix au Lait eeveelution plush, a plush line that came out in Japan in 2019 and now sells for a lot secondhand, but he had a ton of them for cheap in 2023 which I unknowingly bought. After comparing pictures online, I found that the version I bought from him does not have embroidered foot pads like the real one and has an additional suction cup strap on the top, which the real ones don't, but the fake ones on Aliexpress do. A lot of other Pokemon plush he sells suspiciously seem to have identical counterparts on Aliexpress as well, despite not having been released from the Pokemon company as official plush for a long time (if ever...). This goes for eeveelution Mimikyus, the ditto Pokemon plush, and Pikachu in costume plush that the store has sold. Originally, the owner claimed that all his merchandise is officially licensed and purchased through legitimate channels. After pointing out the above to the owner, including that he sells Pokemon plush that are IMPOSSIBLE to have real versions of, he claimed he no longer sells fake Mimikyu, when they are in fact still on his website (see screenshot)! He also claimed the fake plush were sold when he was not the owner. He has ALWAYS been the owner and in full control of the merchandise. He is locally famous for it and has had articles in papers about his store that he started. I'm pretty sure he's the guy in the logo! I don't know how he can lie so blatantly like that. Upset at this escalating situation, I left a 1 paragraph review on Yelp about the fake plush, but deleted it after realizing Yelp shows my real name. Well, guess what? I was right to be cautious, because he responded by updating his response to me on Google with my real name, after I had deleted the Yelp review within 5 minutes of posting it. Likely, he is trying to intimidate me. Bro, what the f? Well, now you get the full Yelp review and more, so I hope you're happy about that. In doing some digging regarding the fake Pokemon plush, I discovered others have made this complaint and claim to have had their comments removed when it was brought up on the shop's social media. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, but his responses have ripped that away. The only nice thing I will say is that he said he would give me a refund if I emailed him with proof, but I honestly do not want this guy to have ANY more of my information than he already has. I should be able to speak out about being sold FAKE merchandise, which is STILL being sold on HIS website that HE OWNS, without having my information maliciously exposed in an attempt to intimidate me. On top of all of this, I think that the store's customers need to know that they record everyone in the store all the time and occasionally post the videos on Reddit as part of the owners anti-shoplifting crusade. However, not all videos show only criminals as he claims. He has posted videos of people just acting weird, or one woman who apparently felt unsafe in the store that he labelled as a "Paris Hilton wannabe" and posted a video of her on Reddit to publicly mock her. See my screenshots of his posts of customers on Reddit. This guy seems legitimately insane. I am never setting foot in this store again. read more

so many cute figurines for good prices! also love the selection of snacks. always a good customer service experience.

After I came inside the store the only entrance was locked behind me and I saw that each time a customer wanted in or out the employee at the register had to walk across the store to the door and manually unlock and then lock the door behind them. This seems really unsafe if there was an emergency where people needed to leave quickly. read more

I discovered this shop in the Portland Geek Guide I picked up at the Airport Visitor center and was transported to a magical wonderland of Anime, Manga and so much more. Hard to find collectibles, fabulous artwork and tons of other treasures that made my nerd heart smile. The staff was amazing and super helpful answering all my goofy questions and helping me find things I didn't even know I was looking for. read more

Came here multiple times from a long way trying to buy Pokemon cards and was denied. Would not recommend coming here for Pokemon cards in store or on their whatnot. read more

If you're into Pokemon, Miyazaki films, Sanrio, etc, this place is for you. They even sell a variety of Japanese soda pop beverages. The gentleman who worked there (I think his name was Joshua) was so kind, that when my mother stepped in gum, he took time to clean her shoes! He didn't have to do that, but he did, and my mother was very grateful. The place is located right across the street from the Pine Street Market, so if you're eating there, come check this place out! It's also located conveniently off the Oak/SW 1st Trimet Max stop read more

Really fun shop to visit, it's actually become one of my must visit stores every time I visit my friends in Portland. Staff is great and I could honestly just spend so much time talking about various anime with them, that I'm basically dragged out by my friends. While I would buy their whole store because I want it all, if they don't carry something in particular, they've helped me by pointing me in the right direction. Really fun shop to visit and if you find yourself in Portland, taking in the local life, drop on by! read more

The first time I came in here was last September and I've been back since then the atmosphere of this store really cheers me up. Always a pleasure coming in here!! read more

Stumptown Otaku - Stumptown otaku entrance with a Totoro photo op - Toy Stores Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Visited Portland for a week and stumbled across this shop. My favorite place of all the places we went to in Portland. Went back three of the 7 days we were in Portland! Even went back right before our flight home. I went in because I saw the giant Totoro outside, Totoro is my favorite. Came out first day with a bunch of Anya from Spy x family stuff. If you like anime merch and pokemon cards (both English and Japanese versions) I would recommend coming here. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable! If I'm ever back in Portland, I will definitely be back! They also have an online store so that's definitely a plus for someone that doesn't live in the area and wants cute anime stuff and still wants to support them! read more
