The store stocks everything from retro collections of anime figurines and merchandise from “Rose of Versailles” For fans of Japanese pop culture, from anime and manga to action figures and comic books, Jeddah’s Nippon Sayko is a treasure trove. The Red Sea Mall-based shop stocks everything from retro collections of anime figurines and merchandise from “Rose of Versailles” and “Treasure Island,” to 90s cult hits like “Detective Conan,” “Hunter X Hunter” and “Neon Genesis Evangelion.” Best-selling modern manga and anime series like “Attack on Titan,” “One-Punch Man” and “Tokyo Ghoul” also feature heavily. Nippon Sayko not only focuses on anime collectibles, though, but also caters to the Kingdom’s K-pop fanbase, with T-shirts, posters and keyrings from all of Korea’s most popular artists on sale. If Asian pop-culture is not your thing, though, the store also sells Japanese and Korean food, from savory delicacies to snacks and sweets, as well as other staple products, such as tea sets, Kimonos (Japanese traditional robes) and Korean Hanbok dresses.
