Where to buy doujinshis in Tokyo

Sun, 16 Dec 2007 16:26:49 GMT

Usually I stick to K-books and Mandarake in Ikebukuro, Shibuya and Nakano. Nakano especially, is an anime heaven. Go there if you happen to be travelling to Tokyo.
This guide was made a long time ago but luckily the stores seems to have stayed pretty much in the same place over the years -It's very good with directions, check it out.

Now I like yaoi, and most of the stuff I found in doujinshis are pretty tame, which is my preference. But I like het too, and I'm having trouble finding stores that sells NON-HENTAI stuff. Help?

Do they sell het in the women's doujinshi section? I remember there was some Howl/Sophie mixed in, and gen Harry Potter, but that's pretty much it. I'm looking for Ichigo/Rukia, Kenshin/Kaoru, etc. I know they exist, I just can't seem to find it.

If you do like hentai, Akihabara's the place (god, that time I accidentally got lost there was mortifying). There's directions in the guide too.

Again please give any suggestions. I'm flying there in a few days and I want to be prepared.

Edit : I'm going tomorrow. Anyone? T_T

...I know that I'm supposed to be squeeing over the last Tsubasa spoiler, but it truly hasn't sink in yet. I'm still afraid it'll turn out to be fake, or inaccurate, or something.

HOWEVER, here's something that I can safely spaz for - OMGSOUMAKENDAPPAFANARTJAPANESEFANARTISTSHOWDOILOVETHEE!!!

In other news, I'm spending the time I'm supposed to be focusing on my studies stalking the kiseki_rpg, and waiting for all the shinies (Silver Diamond v12, Genjuu no Seiza 14, Clamp in Wonderland 2, TOKYO REVELATIONS AEWRYBVC%DHSRDD) to come. October and November, aren't you supposed to arrive yesterday???

RL: Boston weather is bipolar. I miss Indonesian food. Its not even 1 month into college life and I'm already procrastinating. Not good.

I love life, I really do - just when I'm in the verge of wallowing in 'woe-is-me-life-meaningless-etc' angst I stumble and read this - THOSE CRAZY FUNDAMENTALISTS

Ahaha, WTF, ahaahaha. I mean its sort of sad, but damn does it amuse me so.
On a related note I can't seem to find 'Good Omens' anywhere. I want to move to a country that has decent bookstores. :(

17. Oh my god, someone said murder mystery! H/D Agatha Christie style would rule the world. Neither Harry nor Draco could be the murderer though. Or dead. Dumble-Poirot! Ohhh.

Because I'm a procrastinator.
I will finish sometime this week, I swear.

1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, liposuction and air conditioning.

2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans...
