Naruto manga in Japanese. Japanese comics - manga. What is it and why is it interesting for readers? Manga in Japanese online
Foreign languages
Read literature in Japanese fluently
ABCs - Hiragana and Katakana
Hiragana is the basis of Japanese writing. Knowing only hiragana, you can already try to read simple children's fairy tales, or better yet, books processed according to Ilya Frank's method. Katakana is less common in the first stages of learning; it is worth learning it when you feel discomfort from not knowing it.
Kanji and vocabulary
In order for reading in Japanese to be comfortable, and glances at the dictionary to be extremely rare, you need to know 2136 kanji from the official list of Joyo (常用漢字), and at least 5000+ words.
Grammar
For reading, the amount of grammar given in V.P. Lavrentiev’s book “Practical Grammar of the Japanese Language” should be enough.
State at the time of setting this goal
Now, when I create this goal on smartprogress.ru, I already know Hiragana, Katakana, basic grammar, as well as about 350 kanji and 1000+ words. I read books adapted from Ilya Frank’s method, children’s fairy tales, and try to master manga (it’s extremely difficult). The beginning has been made, all that remains is to systematically improve the existing knowledge!
Restructuring dated March 23, 2014
New stages have been added that better characterize the focus of the goal.
Basic moments:
- You need to not only read, but also write and listen. Using different types of memory is effective.
- Needs reading practice.
- To better memorize grammar, you need to try to formulate sentences yourself, including complex ones.
Completion Criteria
It is believed that cartoons are created mainly for children. However, in the Land of the Rising Sun, animation, namely anime based on manga, is popular not only among children, but also among adults.
Manga - as part of Japanese culture
Japanese comics and manga are part of the national Japanese culture. They are not limited to any genres and graphics (“big eyes”), but on their basis, characteristic bright animated works are created.
The most developed animation culture in the world is considered to be Japanese animation, which includes anime and, of course, manga.
What is manga, and what is the difference between it and anime? Few people ask this question, but it is essential and lies in the very nature of these two concepts. They are an integral part of Japanese culture. Manga is the original source, the ancestor of anime. In fact, there would be no anime without it, because only the most popular Japanese comics are subsequently animated and brought to life. Therefore, it is correct to say that manga is Japanese comics, and anime is already animation.
A Brief Excursion into the Origins of Picture Stories
The manga previously bore the modest and understandable title “Stories in Pictures.” Archaeologists found the first mention of drawn stories in the first centuries of Japan. Researchers have discovered drawings that are structurally reminiscent of modern comic books in the tombs of ancient rulers, also called kofun mounds.
The spread of comics was hampered by the ambiguity and complexity of Japanese writing. Therefore, manga in Japanese is read from right to left, and not from left to right, illustrated with many black and white drawings, graphic special effects and a minimum of text.
The first Japanese comic book is considered to be Choujuugiga (“Funny Pictures from the Life of Animals”). They date back to the 12th century and were written by the Buddhist priest and artist Toba (another name for Kakuyu). Choujuugiga is made in the form of 4 paper scrolls. However, during Kakuya’s time, the work he created did not have a modern name.
Strange and funny pictures, characterized by grotesque images, were given a single name - manga.
What are manga and doujinshi?
Oddly enough, seemingly independent Japanese animation has drawn a lot from European caricatures and American comics. This merger took place in the second half of the 19th century. And already at the beginning of the 20th century, Japanese comics found their own niche in Japanese culture. Manga was funded and encouraged by the government. However, comics that ran counter to the interests of the state were banned. It was then that the first fantastic manga hero appeared - a giant robot who opposed the hated USA (1943).
The real revolution took place in the post-war years thanks to Tezuka Osamu. Manga emerged as the main trend in Japan and acquired features that are characteristic of it even today: black and white illustrations on strips, a color cover, rare pictures on the pages, a standard expression of emotions with signs and strokes.
Those who draw and create manga are called "mangaka". However, in the Japanese market there is not only professional manga, but also amateur one. It is with “dojinshi” that many modern manga artists began.
What is manga? This is a synthesis of cartoon effects, comics, and exciting stories. These are the unrealized dreams of cinematographers about cheap, but beautiful and high-quality special effects that attract attention and force viewers to follow every step and action of the heroes. This is the depth and variety of plots.
Interesting, exciting events unfolding on the pages of manga soon became a refuge for many completely unrealized in science fiction, mysticism and others.
Manga has cinematic techniques available for less money: depicting action from different angles, close-ups, medium plans, detailing, demonstrating movement in stages, visuality.
It should also be noted that the transmission of emotions characteristic of manga characters. It is large-scale, grotesque, but never excessive. The Japanese themselves do not use facial expressions well in life; they simply say: “I’m sad, I’m happy.” But manga and anime characters are the complete opposite of their creators. The transfer of emotions is concentrated and realized through poses, costumes, dances, words, through everything that surrounds the character.
Looking through Japanese comics, you can see sparks bursting out of your eyes and a whirlwind above your head. European readers sometimes do not fully understand this designation, but readers from the Land of the Rising Sun know this “language” very well. After all, the main patterns of characters’ emotions were developed by O. Tezuka.
It is believed that the more the hero experiences, the more schematic his image becomes, the more his appearance changes from realistic to grotesque. European admirers are attracted by this transformation: it gives manga dynamism, lightness and expressiveness.
What is so unusual about the symbolic language of Japanese comics? Very often, specific designations known even to a small Japanese will be new to an unprepared reader, and therefore will be incomprehensible.
For example, the traditional manifestation of anger on the pages of manga is the cross, and the flow of blood from the hero’s nose is a sign of lust and lust; fainting is neither fear nor a manifestation of poor health, but a sign of surprise.
Based on this, before you start studying manga strips, you should first study its “conventional language”, which, by the way, is no easier than Japanese characters.
I want, with your help, to improve the one I compiled list where you can read manga online, naturally in English (only 10 percent were translated into Russian)
and if you, like me, love manga and come from the vast expanses of our great and mighty homeland..... then you probably have a place* on the Internet where you can read online or even... download manga...
Google with its queries, of course, also helps a lot... but... I’m not a pro in reading manga, so this is purely my personal chart, and I ask you kind people: share the links, don’t be a cheapskate!)) Where do you read/download manga?
-
- website
It's kind of a clone but Russian www.mangafox.com even the types of backgrounds are the same... but my favorite convenient search is not there, there is a standard one and a division by genre... but I think it will greatly please those who have not yet studied English much...
website
You can download manga from it, but not everything is there... and to be honest, I don’t remember the last time I used it...
* but I’m talking about those places where decent mango lovers are in a hurry to share their acquisitions with us... those from whom you can only buy manga on the Internet or for such unrealistic(!) money that you can buy two or three playboys... that’s why I personally I prefer to buy several packs of cigarettes and wait for kind people to scan and post them for people like me... mmm... rednecks, in the best sense of the word (aka greedy stingy people)... deep down I understand that it is worth publishing such magazines it costs them a lot of money, and we need to support the people doing such wonderful work... but I’m a miser... and I’m not proud of it... it’s just easier for me to wait a week or two and read the manga from the site... and instead buy it for myself a gorgeous bouquet of flowers for a girl...
everyone I love
Dedicated...
my warmest words of gratitude to those who responded, thank you!:
Hmm... I can add a couple more links :)

In the world of Naruto, two years flew by unnoticed. Former newcomers joined the ranks of experienced shinobi at the rank of chunin and jonin. The main characters did not sit still - each became a student of one of the legendary Sannin - the three great ninjas of Konoha. The guy in orange continued his training with the wise but eccentric Jiraiya, gradually ascending to a new level of combat skill. Sakura became the assistant and confidant of the healer Tsunade, the new leader of the Leaf Village. Well, Sasuke, whose pride led to his expulsion from Konoha, entered into a temporary alliance with the sinister Orochimaru, and each believes that they are only using the other for the time being.
The brief respite ended, and events once again rushed with hurricane speed. In Konoha, the seeds of old strife sown by the first Hokage are sprouting again. The mysterious Akatsuki leader has set in motion a plan for world domination. There is turmoil in the Sand Village and neighboring countries, old secrets are resurfacing everywhere, and it is clear that someday the bills will have to be paid. The long-awaited continuation of the manga has breathed new life into the series and new hope into the hearts of countless fans!

University student Kaneki Ken ends up in a hospital as a result of an accident, where he is mistakenly transplanted with the organs of one of the ghouls - monsters that feed on human flesh. Now he himself becomes one of them, and for people he turns into an outcast subject to destruction. But can he become one of the other ghouls? Or is there no more room for him in the world now? This anime will tell about the fate of Kaneki and the impact he will have on the future of Tokyo, where there is a continuous war between two species.
The continent that lies in the center of the Ignola ocean is the large central one and four more - Southern, Northern, Eastern and Western, and the gods themselves look after it, and it is called Ente Isla.
And there is a name that plunges anyone on Ente Isla into Horror - the Lord of Darkness Mao.
He is the master of the other world where all the dark creatures live.
He is the embodiment of fear and horror.
The Lord of Darkness Mao declared war on the human race and sowed death and destruction throughout the continent of Ente Isla.
The Lord of Darkness was served by 4 powerful generals.
Adramelech, Lucifer, Alciel and Malacoda.
The four Demon Generals led the attack on the 4 parts of the continent. However, a hero appeared and spoke out against the army of the underworld. The hero and his comrades defeated the troops of the Lord of Darkness in the west, then Adramelech in the north and Malacoda in the south. The hero led the united army of the human race and launched an attack on the central continent where the castle of the Lord of Darkness stood...
Yato is a wandering Japanese god in the form of a thin, blue-eyed youth in a tracksuit. In Shintoism, the power of a deity is determined by the number of believers, but our hero has no temple, no priests, all donations fit into a sake bottle. The guy in the neckerchief works as a handyman, painting advertisements on the walls, but things are going very badly. Even the tongue-in-cheek Mayu, who worked as a shinki—Yato’s Sacred Weapon—for many years, left her master. And without weapons, the younger god is no stronger than an ordinary mortal magician; he has to (what a shame!) hide from evil spirits. And who needs such a celestial being anyway?
One day, a pretty high school girl, Hiyori Iki, threw herself under a truck to save some guy in black. It ended badly - the girl did not die, but gained the ability to “leave” her body and walk on the “other side.” Having met Yato there and recognizing the culprit of her troubles, Hiyori convinced the homeless god to heal her, for he himself admitted that no one can live long between worlds. But, having gotten to know each other better, Iki realized that the current Yato did not have enough strength to solve her problem. Well, you need to take matters into your own hands and personally guide the tramp on the right path: first, find a weapon for the unlucky one, then help him earn money, and then, you see, what happens. It’s not for nothing that they say: what a woman wants, God wants!

There are many dormitories at Suimei University Arts High School, and there is also the Sakura Apartment House. While hostels have strict rules, everything is possible at Sakura, which is why its local nickname is “madhouse.” Since in art genius and madness are always somewhere nearby, the inhabitants of the “cherry orchard” are talented and interesting guys who are too far out of the “swamp”. Take, for example, the noisy Misaki, who sells her own anime to major studios, her friend and playboy screenwriter Jin, or the reclusive programmer Ryunosuke, who communicates with the world only via the Internet and telephone. Compared to them, the main character Sorata Kanda is a simpleton who ended up in a “psychiatric hospital” just for... loving cats!
Therefore, Chihiro-sensei, the head of the dormitory, instructed Sorata, as the only sane guest, to meet her cousin Mashiro, who was transferring to their school from distant Britain. The fragile blonde seemed like a real bright angel to Kanda. True, at a party with new neighbors, the guest behaved stiffly and said little, but the newly minted admirer attributed everything to understandable stress and fatigue from the road. Only real stress awaited Sorata in the morning when he went to wake up Mashiro. The hero realized with horror that his new friend, a great artist, was absolutely out of this world, that is, she was not even able to dress herself! And the insidious Chihiro is right there - from now on, Kanda will forever look after her sister, because the guy has already practiced on cats!

In the 21st century, the world community finally managed to systematize the art of magic and raise it to a new level. Those who are able to use magic after completing the ninth grade in Japan are now welcome in magic schools - but only if applicants pass the exam. The quota for admission to the First School (Hachioji, Tokyo) is 200 students, the best hundred are enrolled in the first department, the rest are in the reserve, in the second, and teachers are assigned only to the first hundred, “Flowers”. The rest, the “Weeds,” learn on their own. At the same time, there is always an atmosphere of discrimination in the school, because even the forms of both departments are different.
Shiba Tatsuya and Miyuki were born 11 months apart, making them the same year in school. Upon entering the First School, his sister finds himself among the Flowers, and his brother among the Weeds: despite his excellent theoretical knowledge, the practical part is not easy for him.
In general, we are waiting for the study of a mediocre brother and an exemplary sister, as well as their new friends - Chiba Erika, Saijo Leonhart (or just Leo) and Shibata Mizuki - at the school of magic, quantum physics, the Tournament of Nine Schools and much more...

The war began and eventually 10 years passed. People have found a way to isolate themselves from the infection. The only thing that Gastrea cannot tolerate is a special metal - Varanium.

It seemed that now the few survivors could live behind the monoliths in peace, but alas, the threat has not gone away. Gastrea is still waiting for the right moment to infiltrate Tokyo and destroy the few remnants of humanity. There is no hope. The extermination of people is only a matter of time. But the terrible virus also had another effect. There are those who are already born with this virus in their blood. These children, the "Cursed Children" (Exclusively girls) have superhuman strength and regeneration. In their bodies, the spread of the virus is many times slower than in the body of an ordinary person. Only they can resist the creatures of “Gastrea” and humanity has nothing more to count on. Will our heroes be able to save the remaining living people and find a cure for the terrifying virus? Watch and find out for yourself.

Added Episode 23β, which serves as an alternate ending and lead-up to the sequel in SG0.
Thirty thousand players from Japan and many more from around the world suddenly found themselves locked in the massively multiplayer online role-playing game Legend of the Ancients. On the one hand, gamers were physically transported to a new world; the illusion of reality turned out to be almost flawless. On the other hand, the “victims” retained their previous avatars and acquired skills, user interface and leveling system, and death in the game only led to resurrection in the cathedral of the nearest large city. Realizing that there was no great goal, and no one named the price for exit, the players began to flock together - some to live and rule by the law of the jungle, others - to resist lawlessness.
Shiroe and Naotsugu, in the world a student and a clerk, in the game - a cunning magician and a powerful warrior, have known each other for a long time from the legendary “Mad Tea Party” guild. Alas, those days are gone forever, but in the new reality you can meet old acquaintances and just good guys with whom you will not be bored. And most importantly, an indigenous population has appeared in the world of Legends, who consider the aliens to be great and immortal heroes. Involuntarily, you want to become a kind of knight of the Round Table, beating dragons and saving girls. Well, there are plenty of girls around, monsters and robbers too, and for relaxation there are cities like hospitable Akiba. The main thing is that you shouldn’t die in the game, it’s much more correct to live like a human being!

In the world of Hunter x Hunter, there is a class of people called Hunters who, using psychic powers and trained in all manner of fighting, explore the wild corners of the mostly civilized world. The main character, a young man named Gon (Gun), is the son of the great Hunter himself. His father mysteriously disappeared many years ago, and now, having grown up, Gon (Gong) decides to follow in his footsteps. Along the way he finds several companions: Leorio, an ambitious medical doctor whose goal is to get rich. Kurapika is the only survivor of his clan, whose goal is revenge. Killua is the heir to a family of assassins whose goal is training. Together they achieve their goal and become Hunters, but this is only the first step on their long journey... And ahead is the story of Killua and his family, the story of Kurapika’s revenge and, of course, training, new tasks and adventures! The series stopped with Kurapika's revenge... What awaits us next after all these years?
The ghoul race has existed since time immemorial. Its representatives are not at all against people, they even love them - mainly in their raw form. Lovers of human flesh are outwardly indistinguishable from us, strong, fast and tenacious - but there are few of them, so ghouls have developed strict rules for hunting and camouflage, and violators are punished themselves or quietly handed over to fighters against evil spirits. In the age of science, people know about ghouls, but as they say, they are used to it. The authorities do not consider cannibals a threat; moreover, they view them as an ideal basis for creating super-soldiers. Experiments have been going on for a long time...
The main character Ken Kaneki faces a painful search for a new path, because he realized that people and ghouls are similar: it’s just that some literally eat each other, others figuratively. The truth of life is cruel, it cannot be changed, and the one who does not turn away is strong. And then somehow!
The action takes place in an alternate reality where the existence of demons has long been recognized; There is even an island in the Pacific Ocean - “Itogamijima”, where demons are full citizens and have equal rights with people. However, there are also human magicians who hunt them, in particular, vampires. An ordinary Japanese schoolboy named Akatsuki Kojou for some unknown reason turned into a “purebred vampire”, the fourth in number. He begins to be followed by a young girl, Himeraki Yukina, or "blade shaman", who is supposed to monitor Akatsuki and kill him if he gets out of control.
The story tells of a young man named Saitama, who lives in a world ironically similar to ours. He is 25, bald and handsome, and, moreover, so strong that with one blow he can annihilate all dangers to humanity. He is looking for himself on the difficult path of life, simultaneously handing out slaps to monsters and villains.
Now you have to play the game. What kind of game it will be will be decided by roulette. The bet in the game will be your life. After death, people who died at the same time go to Queen Decim, where they have to play a game. But in fact, what is happening to them here is the Heavenly Judgment.
Good day. Many people, but not me, try to learn Japanese. They try their best, learn hieroglyphs that are difficult to write and pronounce. And so, when Japanese knowledge reaches the level of “I can read and translate hieroglyphs,” these people begin to wonder: “Where can I order manga in the original?” And I come to the rescue with this post.
Happy reading ^^
:pencil2: Payment
You can pay for your order upon receipt or by card. I think this is a huge plus for the site. My opinion is this: it is very convenient, for example, to pay for your order with a bank card/electronic money and wait quietly for it.
:pencil2: Delivery
Delivery throughout Russia is free. What does it mean? The seller sends you your order at his own expense, and your only job is to pay for the manga volume. If you, for example, live somewhere in Vladivostok, then you will have to wait a long time, unlike residents of the same Moscow.
:pencil2: Reviews
You can leave your opinion about the product in the comments. Only, of course, to write a praise/complaint, you need to go to Vkontakte. I think everything is there, so it won't be hard work.
:pencil2: Opinion
So, let's summarize. The site is not bad, but the small number of manga in the original language is disappointing. In the future, I hope even more will be added. And so far 4/5.
╭─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╮
╰─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╯
What attracted me to this site was its design. It looks very nice and neat. Pleasant to the eye. This site also has a lot of products for anime fans. Figurines, art books, books, stationery, etc. There is also a limited choice here, but there is manga known throughout the world: Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, Fullmetal Alchemist, Death Note, Dragonball, Evangelion. Registration is required to order. If you have questions about a product, you need to click on “Ask a question about this product.” It is highlighted in gray. Your letter will be sent to the site administrators.
:pencil2: Payment
You can pay by electronic money (WebMoney, YandexMoney, Moneybookers) or by bank transfer - prepayment. There is also the possibility of cash on delivery for amounts less than 5,000 rubles. 4% insurance fee. And payment upon receipt is only for Moscow residents. DISCRIMINATION.
:pencil2: Delivery
Delivery is by Russian post, and if you live within the Moscow Ring Road, then by courier. There is both free and paid delivery. You choose it yourself. Courier delivery costs 350 rubles, by Russian post – 300 rubles.
:pencil2: Opinion
The site is good. There is a lot to choose from. The decoration is a big plus. I love beautiful websites. Delivery is available, you can pay by card. This site deserves my approval. Rating: 4.5/5
╭─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╮
╰─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╯
This site is aimed entirely at learning Japanese and Chinese. Therefore, there are many tutorials on them. Compared to those two sites, there is a huge selection of manga here. There is educational, and there is serial. If you are learning Japanese, feel free to order from this site. Just don't forget about registration.
:pencil2: Payment
There are quite a lot of payment methods. Receipt from Sberbank of the Russian Federation, WebMoney, via bank card, etc. I find it very convenient. Yes, paying by card is always convenient.
:pencil2: Delivery
Delivery is paid, which upset me. 440 rubles regular delivery by Russian Post within 12-25 days. 550 rubles 1st class delivery. It's a pity that it's paid, but you can sacrifice money for the sake of knowledge.
:pencil2: Opinion
The site is great for people learning Japanese or Chinese. Lots of tutorials, and most importantly - manga in the original language. Of course, due to the delivery it turns out to be a little expensive, but I think it won’t hurt your wallet too much. Order from here, my children! My final rating: 4.5/5 because there is a shipping fee.
╭─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╮

:books: Website: Shop Life in Japan
The site is dedicated to Japanese culture. There are a lot of interesting things, which is a big plus. There's a lot of manga here too. I want “The 7 Deadly Sins” in the original. You can subscribe to Jump on this site. A monthly subscription costs 2,485 rubles. If you think that you can only order manga and Jump on this site, you will be deeply mistaken. This site is a treasure trove for light novel and book lovers. They are all in Japanese too. I even became motivated to teach him.
:pencil2: Payment
Payment is made using PayPal, Robokassa, Qiwi wallet and Life in Japan wallet. A bank card is not suitable here. Sadly.
:pencil2: Delivery
There are 2 types of delivery: regular and express. Regular delivery costs 299 rubles, express delivery costs 990 rubles. Each has its pros and cons, but it all depends on your budget.
:pencil2: Opinion
The site contains a lot of things. Everyone will find what they need. But the whole problem is payment. Not everyone has a Qiwi wallet or PayPal, and that’s the downside. Rating: 4/5.

╰─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╯
:books: Website: Avito
If you are so homeless that you cannot afford a new manga, then Avito is ideal. You just need to watch what you order. You may find manga in Russian.
Payment and delivery are discussed personally with the seller! Therefore, I won’t talk about it.
╭─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╮
╰─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╯
:books: Website: nodanoshi
The site also contains a lot of things. But the amount of manga was disappointing. Firstly, I didn’t find any popular volumes. Secondly, there is doujinshi here. For the uninitiated: doujinshi is amateur manga.
:pencil2: Payment
The goods are paid for by mail + 4% commission. They don't feel sorry for people. Eh!
:pencil2: Delivery
Everything is delivered by Russian Post. This mail is everywhere. Although how else will it be delivered... Other mail is sometimes unprofitable. Delivery time 7-30 days. You can turn on the "Hachiko" mode.
:pencil2: Opinion
The site seems to be good, but at the same time not good. The amount of manga makes me sad. And everything seems to be fine. Rating: 3/5. I want more manga on this site!
╭─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╮
╰─━━━━━━ :books: ━━━━━━─╯
This site has many foreign books, magazines. Of course, there is manga here. And not only her, there are also magazines here. Manga: Fairy tail, TO LOVE-RU DARKNESS, JINKI: EXTEND COMPLETE EDITION, Straight field, Gang Island Zhilang, I do not have many friends. Not much…
:pencil2: Payment
You can pay in cash in the store or transfer money to a bank account. It is possible to transfer a sum of money to WebMoney, Yandex Money. Electronic money: fast, convenient and reliable, but this is not certain.
:pencil2: Delivery
I just won’t comment on this point, because it doesn’t matter who or where, everything is sent by Russian Post.
:pencil2: Opinion
A site with a small amount of manga. But he sunk into my soul (no). The disadvantages are immediately visible. I don’t want to say them, because my sarcastic jokes don’t suit everyone. Rating: 3/5.

Such a nice and neat site where you can order various stationery, Japanese manga and anime figurines. Of course, there is again little manga here. This is already pissing me off a little... But that’s not about that now.

:books: Website: eBay
Anyone who doesn't know about eBay clearly doesn't know anything. One minus about this site. It consists in the fact that there is a language barrier between the buyer and the seller, and also different time zones. Manga in Japanese is mostly from Japan. And I really like eBay.
:pencil2: Payment
The seller must write the payment methods when placing the goods. There is no other way. Everything is paid using electronic money or by transfer from a bank card.
:pencil2: Delivery
In this case, the goods are first sent to the destination country by the postal services of one state. Upon arrival at your destination, what you ordered is sent to you by Russian Post.
:pencil2: Opinion
I personally love sites like this. I sometimes order from there myself. There is quite a lot of manga here, there are even works that I didn’t know existed. It is marked "In Japan". It means that the product is sold only in Japan. Therefore, some manga are not destined to be bought. Final rating: 4/5.

:books: Japanese site in English: amiami
Yes, yes, exactly the Japanese site. There are too few sites in Russian, so I included this site. Many lovers of all things Japanese recommend it.
:pencil2: Payment
Since this is a Japanese site, everything here is paid using PayPal, credit card (Visa, MasterCard, etc.), Alipay, UnionPay. You cannot pay by other methods. Attention! The site is Japanese, everything is paid in yen.
:pencil2: Delivery
The site offers several types of delivery: express delivery (EMS), courier delivery (DHL), small package by air, regular delivery (SAL), small package regular delivery. Some types of delivery may be subject to change by the site due to the fact that they may not be available in all countries.
:pencil2: Opinion
I really like the site for its design, but not only that. There's a lot on it. Cute figurines, manga, books and a bunch of anime things. The site is worthy of your royal order. Rating: 5/5.
