Animate Umeda

Animate Umeda is an anime goods and manga shop near HEP FIVE in Osaka. It occupies a full floor, with about half of the goods area given over to manga, selling items such as Nendoroids and Look Up figures alongside new manga releases. There are many checkout counters, so lines move quickly, and more than ten gacha machines stand at the entrance. The stock centers on popular titles aimed at women, so goods for lesser-known works are hard to find.
