Anime Castle in Flushing is a fantastic stop for anime fans, tucked away just outside the main…read moredowntown bustle. True to its name, it's a treasure trove filled from floor to ceiling with manga, figures, and all sorts of collectibles. Once inside, the selection is impressive for the space. They carry a ton of manga at decent prices, and I saw a great range of figures, plushies, and model kits in the back section. For card collectors, they sell trading card game packs at MSRP, including popular series like One Piece. The staff are super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. If you're looking for something specific or need a gift idea, don't hesitate to ask them. The store is open daily, but hours can vary, with doors typically opening around noon. It's the perfect spot to browse when you're in the area, especially if you're looking for something a bit more specialized than what you'd find in a mainstream store. For a deep dive into anime merch without leaving Queens, Anime Castle is well worth the visit.

I shopped there for 7 years, in those 7 years I have had employees forget to ring up half my order where I had to make sure I paid afterwards because the staff was so incompetant, A covers for DC comics floppies (typically 3.99 at the time)were being charged to me as 1 in 25 incentive variant prices (like $24.99), I was charged for products i didn't purchase, and was treated like shit, either because it was me, because I expected people to take pride in their work, or because I was Albanian, or handicapped.

Next thing you know I've been shopping there for years, I collect mostly 80s90s era stuff and they have a lot of that. But they do also have new comics and older/pricier stuff (key issues/gold or silver age I guess its called). You cant be afraid to dig to find what you're looking for, I've seen the owner help new customers find obscure stuff all the time so I dont get why people say they have a limited selection. Also I took my exgf there and she looked around then left because she didnt see The Walking Dead comics, then I asked Rich and he showed me a bunch of TWD comics!!! This comic store most resembles the ones from my childhood, small and humble from the outside but lots of great stuff inside and friendly atmosphere.

My guess is the sales did not offset the high rents. It is likely that this Queens location might come under a similar pressure. It is a large store, well-stocked and clean. The service is friendly but I find their knowledge of the inventory is lacking. Their collection of books, especially the Amar Chitra Katha comic books that I was raised on, is quite unique. Unlike with a grocery store, this is an episodic business and customers visit the store infrequently. But if I am in the market for Indian merchandise, I will be sure to check out Butala. An excellent resource for New Yorkers, although I realize the Manhattan location was too good to be sustainable.
