Anime Merch – Found in Seoul!

by HOBBY♡KR August 15, 2018
written by HOBBY♡KR August 15, 2018
I came to Seoul around the time new merchandise was coming out for Hunter x Hunter. If you are a HxH fan then you probably know that new merch doesn’t come our way very often. Buying it online seemed too expensive, so I resigned myself to never obtain any of it! However, one day while walking down the street I discovered one of the most magical stores ever, a few minutes away from my house! Since then I have realized that most anime stores in Seoul have an incredible variety of stuff that is very up to date with what you can buy in Japan. Although most stores have a majority of items for similar series (big flow of Haikyu!, Yuri on Ice, and Fate/Apocrypha stuff), it is possible to find items for less popular series, as I will show below! These are a combination of items found in gachapon and bought regularly in the stores
HUNTER X HUNTER
 
Words cannot describe my happiness when I found this! Each one of this was about 10,000 won…pretty expensive for keychains but when you are starved for anything to do with HxH, you take what you can get! These are part of the Hisoka’s Toy Box collection. I am not the biggest fan of the design but it is cute enough.

I have to make special mention of this AMAZING figure I found hidden away in a glass case in a store. I think it is hideous but I’ve seen these floating around on eBay for hefty prices so I was very very excited to see it in real life and for an amazing price!

CARDCAPTOR SAKURA
 
Thanks to clear card arc there has been a surplus of CCS items recently! They are all so cute and I have to try my best not to get everything in sight.

GINTAMA
 
I feel like I am unexpectedly a big fan of Gintama, Better yet, I like most characters which is great for dacha as it doesn’t matter which character I get! I was surprised by the amount of merch they have for it!

YU YU HAKUSHO
 
Similar to Hunter x Hunter, it seems almost impossible to easily get merch for YYH these days. However, I was lucky enough to find these! I wish I could find some dacha or other items but these are quite nice, and the quality of the paper left me surprised.

HOSHIN ENGI
 
Again, I was surprised to see items for this! I am a big fan of the old version, so I had to cop these even though I thought the new version was quite bad…

I don’t have the most impressive collection but I would prefer to save my money to buy merch from series I actually like! I will be getting more gacha and blind bags in the future so follow us @hobby.kr on instagram to see when we have gotten new items!

Hello! If you want CCS I really recommend a store called “Magical Creamy DD” in Hongdae Area and another store in the Hongdae Area called Ansodang. You can find them on instagram as @giftdang. I also recommend you go to the 9th floor of the “Kukje Electronics Center” in Seocho area. The other 2 stores tend to have newer things and since CCS isn’t airing right now they might not have as much. But the electronics center will have lots!
