Hello everyone! Just letting you all know we are starting back to school hours starting 9/12/11. So hours will be as such:

Mon-Thurs: 3pm-9pm+
Friday: 3pm-Midnight+
Saturday: Noon-Midnight+
Sunday: Noon-9pm+

We offer "+ hours" for closing most of the time. This means we allow customers to stay in the store past closing. We do this as a convenience to our customers and gives you peace of mind that we won't be kicking you out right at close or shutting down early.

If you have any questions, please let us know. Thanks!
 
 
Just letting you all know we will have shortened hours on Monday, September 5th. We are opening late at 4pm and open to the usually 9pm.

Just got back from Anime St. Louis and wanted to give them a shout out for pulling off an amazing con this past weekend. They broke attendance records and overall it was an amazing con. Can't wait to be back next year.

AFZ also had a full page ad on the back of each program book in 2011. We'll post a copy of it up on the site shortly. A huge thanks to Andrea for making such as awesome ad!
 
 
AFZ now carries Manga! There's also a very large section of Yaoi Manga too. More items are coming in all the time.

Asian Fans, Parasols, and Lanterns are now in stock too. If you haven't been in here recently, you're missing out on a lot. Hope to see you in the store soon.
 
 
We just got back from our 50th Con! Anime Zap in Peoria, IL, the instant anime convention, was held over 1-15/1-16. It was a well run event by Ryan Kopf and his staff. Ryan also runs Anime Spark, QC Anime-zing and AniMinneapolis. AFZ will be at Anime Spark and QC coming up later this year.

Its been a wild ride doing our 50th con in just under 2 years. Seems like we've done so many more with all the miles driven, going from coast to coast. 2011 will be our most intense year yet as we hope to attend up to 40 shows this year. Guess we'll be ce
