Anime Station — Local services in Rowland Heights

Had just left Infinity Claws, and as a die hard anime fan, I decided to pay Anime Station a visit. As a vlogger I enjoy documenting my visits to arcades, hobby shops and restaurants. I was taking pictures of their claw machines because I was excited to see they had some, when suddenly an employee came up to me to tell me that photos and video recording are not allowed (which I’m surprised now that I looked at reviews because there are many reviews with photos). Anyway, respectfully, I apologized and explained that it was my first time there. I later went to the register to purchase (overpriced) tokens for the claw machines (extremely rigged), and the clerk at the register didn’t look too happy to help me. While I was playing the claw machines I turned to see the employees looking at me and laughing. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and ignored it, thinking they could have been laughing at something else. They did have a lot of cool anime collectibles though so that was really cool to see, and frankly the only pro. The cons were the poor customer service and their overpriced merchandise. I wanted to love this place, because it gave me shops at Little Tokyo vibes, but my experience there was an extreme disappointment. I am hoping this was an isolated incident, and if I’m in the area again MAYBE I’ll give this place another chance, but it’s definitely not at the top of my list of places I...

I recently visited Anime Station and was blown away by the incredible selection and atmosphere. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by a life-sized statue of one of my favorite anime characters, making it clear that this store is a true haven for anime enthusiasts.

The store is packed with a wide variety of merchandise, from adorable plush toys to intricate figurines. I found so many unique items that I hadn’t seen anywhere else. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help and chat about the latest anime trends.

One of the highlights for me was the selection of crane machines filled with exclusive goodies. It added an extra layer of fun to my shopping experience. Plus, the store was clean and well-organized, making it easy to find what I was looking for.

Overall, Anime Station is a must-visit for any anime fan. Whether you’re looking to add to your collection or just want to browse and soak in the anime vibes, this place won’t disappoint. I'll definitely be...

I didn’t expect this shop to have so many cute character goods! They had everything from anime figures to Sanrio blind boxes, and the displays made it really easy to browse. The staff was super nice and even gave me recommendations when I couldn’t decide what to get. You can tell they keep up with the newest drops, since I saw a lot of recent collections in stock. If you like collecting anime merch or fun little gachas, this place is definitely...
