The books inside are individually priced, while the books outside are discounted to 10 or 25 cents based on which side it is on. I could have spent hours there. After selecting way too many books, I took them up to the counter to check out. As the friendly employee rang up the books, we chatted about D&D. Overall, perfect first visit and I look forward to returning!

At any given time of the day there are people in there gaming and having a great time with a family atmosphere.

Best comic book store ever highly recommended

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.

Fun fact, I made my first comic purchase here about 6 years ago. Since my last visit, the layout appears to be easier to navigate. The space is made up of about three different rooms to explore, so I didn't feel cramped or as if I was invading anyone's bubble. The staff answered my many questions and even attempted to assist me in recalling a title I was having trouble finding. Which I later identified. The parking was a bit hectic on a Friday afternoon. I was in and out within a matter of minutes. I initially dropped in for the New Bloodline comic but also decided on the Scarlet Witch while browsing. My purchases came out to $9.59. I'll be returning soon for the Saga volumes!

The impressive back issue selection is refreshed weekly and super well-organized. If you're ready to create a pull list (highly advised!), Acme is great with communication about adding new titles. Plus -- the owner and staff actually READ the new titles and are ready to give a FRIENDLY and informed recommendation. (If you've been to the "other" type of stores, you know that's not as common as it should be.) Regular updates on social media keep you informed of new titles worth checking out. The best factor overall is the FUN and NO PRESSURE atmosphere created by the staff and customers who have made this a true treasure of the local community. Really happy to discover this store.

They have a selection of games to try out and plenty of sitting space for you and your friends to test out and have a good time. They offer a wide variety of singles on their website. By buying them and picking it up in store, you save on shipping, giving them the selection of an online retailer with lower costs. Their prices are most comparable to TCGPlayer, minus delivery fees. Atomic Empire also carries a limited selection of comics and graphic novels, a nice to have for sure. They also sell plenty of gaming accessories from dice to paint to playmates to deck boxes. Unlike many game stores I've been to, Atomic Empire is pristine. High ceilings and proper ventilation provides constant fresh air. Bright lights and clean floors provides a welcoming atmosphere. It's a pleasure to take your time and browse a store that's so well maintained. Atomic Empire is excellent to game in or simply hang out at.
