For those who don&#8217;t know, Mandarake is a favorite of Japanese school students. They sell manga, collectibles, cosplay items and lots lots more. Their current store is about 10 minutes&#8217; walk from GenkiJACS, and is a gargantuan treasure trove of fabulous stuff. This time we&#8217;re not overselling it in the slightest.<br \/>Mandarake is also distinguished by having <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mandarake.co.jp\/en\/shop\/\">one of the best English language websites around<\/a>, and also one of the best taglines around &#8211; &#8220;Mandarake &#8211; Rulers of Time&#8221; indeed.<br \/>We&#8217;re already working on some special plans together with Mandarake, so we expect a lot more excitement when the store finally opens around the end of April.
