Help your fellow aspiring otaku by providing resource tools for exploring the world of anime and manga.

Lately I've been using This Is Anime and I've been really happy with them. Sometimes the orders get backed up but they've always delivered and in working order.

animecornerstore.com has been my source of anime and manga for over a year now. I personally have never had any problems with them.

I'm pretty sure it's not a big secret that I do most of my research at Animenewsnetwork.com. It has one of the largest databases and it is also responsible for Protoculture Addicts magazine the longest running Anime Magazine in North America. If you want information about what's going in the Anime World then these are places I trust. A great place to buy Anime is at Anime Castle

Ok so here another really informative cite that I had forgotten about and recently rediscovered is called Anime DB. It is another good site to do research.

finally got around to checking out Anime Castle a few min ago. think i'm gonna love that place. just found an artbook i want for half price, which thrills my inner cheap biotch to no end. lol

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/ As Orion 1 said also one we are missing is http://www.rareflix.com/ You can find nearly any title there

[TheDarkness]

rareflix, huh? maybe i can find the 1970 adult anime, Cleopatra. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=3253
in addition to anime, i'm a certifiable egyptophile.

[TheDarkness]

didn't find it, but i found an alternate Cleopatra title. also this quirky Japanese site.

thanks.

[Orion1]

Ah yes Rareflix does come in handy for hentai.

[Anubis68]

oooh, I'll have to try rareflix for Dirty Duck. wish me luck

[TheDarkness]

luck you! *wink*

i hate to be mainstream, but don't forget Amazon. they often have used copies available at much reduced prices.

if you are willing to risk bootlegs by the bushel, ebay, also has a plethora of anime titles, old and new.
