arkadymac.com has been invited to cover the event, and we had our Correspondent and Cosplay Model Keileen and Photographer Jake bring us the highlights of Aniporium’s Grand Launch.
What fans love besides their anime are the toys and merch that make their hearts pound and make them squeal with glee, and Aniporium definitely had a multitude of those on display and then a whole lot more on stock. From figures of all sizes, plushies, gatchas. accessories, keychains, and everything in between, even the most demanding fan will find something that will gleefully be taken home and be added to their collection. And for those who came to the launch, some items were sold at 50% off, among other great exclusive deals. for those online, their user-friendly website facilitated easy transactions and discounts were also offered.

The Aniporium store was very spacious, well-lit and very modern in design. The motif was cheery and being able to browse the merchandise with much ease and space gave the store a comfortable atmosphere. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, and the usual laborious challenge of browsing has been made an enjoyable experience.
