I keep seeing the ads on TV, I'll have to go check it out.

Now if only Rochester would get an arcade...

The store has it. They have the Initial D 3rd Stage racing game. Oh man, it's pretty exciting that ANN caught something that's close to my campus. Go RIT! Cool

Wow, elite engineering student-type geeks like anime! Who'dve thunk it? Wink

Also, rain is wet, cows say "moo", and fluffy kittens are cute.

Yay for living in Rochester! I must admit, I haven't gone to check it out yet, for no reason other than I'm lazy, but it's pretty cool that we have an official anime store here (though it's not like Akihabara or anything). My one regret about the store: I bought a Naruto poster in Japan, thinking it to be exclusive and a cool memento from Japan, and then once I get home, the ads start airing a week later and display the poster I had just bought. Anime hyper Oh well, at least no one else in the area has my L'Arc~En~Ciel, FMA, Bleach, or FFVII: AC posters...I think...

Also, it's cool the Democrat and Chronicle had the story on it, but I don't like that newspaper because of its simplistic stories and writing. It always feels like a middle school-level paper to me.

Oh yea, my bad.

I recommend reading it. The characters are interesting and pretty true to life (freakishly so at times).

I've been to the store twice, and I highly recommend going! I really like the selection and I'im dying to try the Pachinko games. Its nice to have a store in Rochester that deals with Anime and its related products.
