| - I walked in here, off the street, not knowing what to expect. There were giant plushies, and Hello Kitty items galore in the windows. There were also more Cat Buses, and Totoros than I knew what to do with.
There are also necklaces, and pencil cases, and all manner of other goods here too. But, what really won me over was the man behind the counter.
I walked in wearing a Blue Jays hat, and he immediately started talking to me about the game. Normally I am not a far of having to speak with employees (it always feel like a trap, or a scam) and at first I was stand offish. Then we started talking about 1992, and the '93 series.
His charm won me over, and I could have stayed there all day - if it wasn't for other customers.
I paid for my pencil case, but that wasn't the end: with a great flourish, and a claim of magic, he produced and tied a bow around my purchase.
Honestly, I was charmed. It was fantastic. If I ever need any Japanese plushies, or toys, I can't imagine why I'd go anywhere else.
