Here are some of the historic pictures of Vancouver's first real Japanese Animation Retail Store.
|
This is my fourth and final location of Anime Jyanai (2000-2005).
|
You will enter through a what looks like a very very small closet.
|
First thing that hits your eyes is a huge two sided DVD rack that extends 16 feet into the store and rises almost 10 feet into the air, a DVD shelf that holds almost 3500 anime DVDs.
|
The walls on both sides of the room are lined with a VHS shelf that ran right to the 12 foot ceiling and ran over 30 feet on both sides, packed full of over 6000 video cassettes of anime.

|
The couch at the front of the store.
|
A commissioned picture drawn by local artist Cyrus showing a few of my favourite anime characters on my couch in the store.

Here is Saveun busy on the computer updating the ever growing store inventory.
