Asian living had almost everything I could ask for. If you are looking for cosplays, anime merch, foam weapons and real weapons this is the place for you.
Asian Living has very great anime related products such as sweaters, shirts, posters, figures, and even swords etc. I came to buy a Naruto sweater ($40) and a headband ($10) and was satisfied with the products. The staff there were very helpful and sweet. But I totally recommend coming here.( Unfortunately, I couldn’t take pictures due to the store policy but it doesn’t bother me)
Well if youre looking for a one time buy its great! Otherwise its Overpriced, as an Example they have the Amazing Heroes Figure for Hawks at $60... when you can get it for around $40 on Amazon and other places. All around decent place, bad prices :)
Let me get this straight, they expect you to pay good money, arguably too much, for a replica of manga character katana, but I cant touch it? Thats right, they wont let you even touch it. No way to see blade, balance, quality, nothing.Just go to a real store. Hell, even in Academy you can touch and check all the guns and blades you want.
I was able to find a great gift for my sons birthday this month and they were very helpful.
They are mandating masks. We walked in and they said we had to wear a mask even though Texas cleared that mandate. They did not even provide a mask for us to wear even though they are requiring want to be worn. The lady was extremely rude to us and said we had to leave. We will NEVER come back here again and do NOT recommend this place to anyone!
The lady there was very nice! They have so much to choose from. If you are looking for Asian things, its the place to go to. Plus they have Manga cost play!!!
Super cool shop that you can’t really find anywhere else in the area. I personally think the prices are all very reasonable (except maybe the pillows). I don’t know why people put bad reviews just because THEY don’t like the prices! There’s many other people saying you can get things cheaper online.. so buy online then, but don’t give bad reviews :/ The two ladies I seen were both super duper nice, helpful, and friendly.
Lots of low quality imported goods such as swords, anime art, and faux Asian decor
MAD OVERPRICED 10$ for 1 akatsuki ring and 90 for a akatsuki cloak I can get it 60$ cheaper on Amazon only go if your rich.
Underrated store the older asian lady is awesome the employees are awesome and the always have something i find interesting in their store.
Lots of cool stuff. My daughter loved this store.
Cool place with a great selection.
Lady was extremely rude store requires masks even when Texas said they weren’t mandatory anymore and they also don’t provide them for us
They have a big selection of anime content but they almost double the prices of alot of stuff, especially figures. Ive gone in a girl helped my fiance and I and it was a great experience but two other times we went in when an older lady was with us and she was anything but nice. Maybe you should at least work on your tone if you want people to come back often.
The girls who were working there were pretty, but most of the stuff was overpriced, but it does have a variety of anime/kpop merch.
This store is not what it seems. My daughter and her bf went looking for k-pop and anime stuff and all they really have to offer is throw pillows THAT ARE WAY OVER PRICED ($25) and wallets. Well they had a couple shirts but they where 3, 4, and 5 XL and my daughter and her friend are 14 and absolutely cant wear those sizes.
Its a good place but the prices(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)
Interesting place unique stuff. Mostly decorative the swords are not sharp
They have quite a selection of anime and traditional items
Various costumes and Asian themed products like anime merch and some cultural outfits if you are ever interested in those kinds of things.
Turned a 10 year old kid away for not wearing a mask. Ignorant sheep behind the counter. Will order from Amazon instead of spending money in this store now.
A rip-off all there i teams are bought from Amazon and cheap online anime stores and then sell it for more then it’s worthFor example,there was an akasuki coat that you can buy on Amazon for 15-30 USD but they would sell it at 80 USD
Cool shop. Has all the great anima gear and appearal.
I love the swords, employees are well uh employees
I end up coming here for the first time last year ....the same lady who helped me is still there ..I cannot remember her name but she’s tall and sooo friendly . Almost every time we go here we talk about kpop & some anime . I love there selection on stuff like old anime’s & anime merch that I haven’t found in years ...mostly the Yu-Gi-Oh! Stuff . I love about 5 mins away but I really love this place and the lady I always see is always nice to me! Thank you and I plan to return again soon . Thanks again.
Good quality items. Friendly staff. Loved it and will be back soon.
I recommend this store for those who love anime and bts
Kinda over priced, the employees have pretty bad attitudes and vibes. They act like they dont want to work there.
Great place, great people. Found so many things I wanted to buy and did buy. And reasonable prices.
Bought a Sailor Mercury figure and its missing a piece, body doesnt connect, and the body is warped where it barely stands up. A bunch of the merch was fake and very pricy.
Great selection and amazing prices!
Absolute worst place ever. I was treated like garbage by the lady behind the counter because I leaned on it as I was asking her questions. she yelled at me again when I asked how much something was. At that point I just walked out and she said good leave
Bought a $40 bag lasted one day brought it back and they said no one has came in ever and complained, no refund or exchange very disappointed. As tourists this has given us a very bad impression.
The place sells awesome items but sold my twelve year old an item I had just purchased for him and I met him in the store right after he made the purchase and they would not take the item back. I know it says all sales final but he paid cash and hadn’t even walked out the store! I wasn’t there when he made the purchase but had walked in right after. I not shopping there again!
Very expensive but amazing stuff
Collectible anime figures are way over priced at this location! Box Lunch, Hot Topic, FYE, even Walmart and Target for goodness sake carry a few of those at literally half of the price this place has them for.
Their stuff is fake and overpriced and the staff is so rude I wouldnt recommend going here. The mall has a hottopic, fye and boxlunch go over there instead.
I love going to this store, employees are very friendly, greatly stocked and a very well clean store!
Bootlegs, bootlegs, and more bootlegs! There should be warning signs out front that say horrible quality items buy at your own risk None of the items sold here are authentic or licensed. Please do not support this store.
I love this store.
Was good. Kinda warm in the store
Cool store very clean and the staff are very helpful and nice also good prices
I cant blame anyone but myself :/ I bought a pokemon plush that was expensive and later found out I could have gotten it for way less!! A lot of the items are poor quality and overpriced....I would steer clear away from this store! Just stick to ebay listings at least their prices are fair. theres a reason they take the tags off the products smh
Got an eevee hoodie from here. I dont regret it, but Im too embarrassed to wear it out in public haha
Not only is the customer service so horrible you might as well not even walk in, the prices are so outrageous you can find the same things on Amazon for way cheaper. Definitely not worth going to. P.s. I came in for a master sword, and the sole cashier just said Im not showing you anything unless youre gonna buy it. She gave way too much attitude that I just wanted to leave her racist shop of cheaply made merchandise.
After reading reviews on here I decided I should write my own experiences with this store to show some contrast. Great store, yes you might be able to find some items cheaper online, but that applies to most products that require shipping or are not commonplace. Overall very cool selection and good prices. Every time I have been in the cashier is very nice. One visit I asked if I could purchase something in a display case and she asked if it was on the shelf behind the register, when I said no, she came over to help me get the item out of the display case and boxed it up for me very nicely. She was very sweet and thanked me many times when I was there and for helping her get the item out since she was having trouble reaching it. That was one sole experience, but have never had a bad or rude employee as these reviews say. In the end, interesting store, enjoy coming here and just looking around.
They had a lot of anime and K-POP stuff which I loved and some things were pricey but overall it was great!
So this racist white gothic girl told me they didn’t sell fans. There was a fan right behind her. Then when I asked to see it she was hesitant and told me not to open it. Then she called me entitled when I question why I couldn’t. My daughter is starting fan weapon in karate, and I had to fight to even be able to fold the fan. Oh and for good measure she threatened to call the police when I showed her the poor yelp reviews on the store calling her attitude in question. I must admit the products are great but that girl has to go.
They have really good BTS stuff not much but still
So I bought a pokemon teddy bear for my son there. It cost almost $50 dollars. Within minutes in the Mall that teddy bear was opening up. I do admit my son was being a little rough but I paid almost 50 dollar for that teddy bear! I expect a good product.... I tried to return it but the store policy does not allow customer to return things. I was sort of mad because I bought a 50 dollar pokemon and I expected a good product. I do not recommend this store to no body because Asian living has bad quality items there.
By far my favorite store in the entire mall! I walked in and my jaw dropped. Anime stuff everywhere! If youre a fan of basically any anime whether it was the show or a game, you will love this store. They even have replica keyblades!They do have one rule. No photography. So just mind that rule as you look at all the cool stuff they offer.
Price is right and i love everything in this place.
Large assortment of asian and anime items.
Amazing stuff!
They need to learn how to behave with a customer. Never been to a store with more arrogant imbeciles behind the counter.
It seem everyone had the same experience with this shop. The people are rude asf I ask her about a few items in the store she replied are talking to me but Im directly in front of her, I told want to buy the items I was asking about she told me I had to get pre-approved in order to purchase rude rude rude just RUDE
Very pricey I will say, but the best store in Grapevine, Texas for fans that enjoy K-Pop, Anime, and Japan related things :) Great store and very good service too.
First off, the only reason Im giving this store a one star is because I cant give it 0 which is what it deserves. I went in with high hopes and a smile to purchase some unique merchandise but I was sadly disappointed. Majority of the items were poorly made and looked like factory defects. Many of the items could also be found on Amazon for a way cheaper price so you might as well save your time and money by not going. I was so astonished by how the sole cashier treated me when I asked for help. I asked to see a master sword and she said no unless I was going to buy while looking at her phone the entire time. When I said never mind, she responded with ok bye, you can leave. She also said filthy American under her breathe as I was leaving. The customer service was horrible, the products were horrible, and most of all the experience was horrible.
Anime and Asian stuff. Best store ever!
If you go here for Asian decor, cosplay, or weaponry, youll be fine. But DO NOT go here for anime merchandise. TRUST ME.I went about a week ago to buy a fan and a wallet. The button that kept the wallet closed broke off within a week and was definitely bootleg. The fabric on my fan ripped off after two days of use. They had about 15 wall scrolls in the store, but only one was branded. Every other wall scroll was bootleg. All but two of their wallets were bootleg. EVERY SINGLE KEYCHAIN AND BAG IS BOOTLEG. Basically, if its on their cashier counter, its definitely bootleg. Nothing is of good quality. Everything will break after a month or so.None of your money is going towards the animation companies who make the anime you love. You arent supporting your favorite shows when you buy from them. Buy online at Animate or go down to AnimePOP instead. You could get real, licensed, quality items online for cheaper than their bootleg counterparts at Asian Living are being sold, I assure you. Its practically robbery.Not to mention the customer service is abysmal. You are never greeted when you walk in, and the sole cashier never offers their help. When we asked if they had a Master Sword, the only help we received was the cashier pointing her finger towards the wall, where about twenty other swords were bundled together. She didnt even try to walk towards them and pull it out for us. It took us almost a minute to find it.
Okay so i went to texas to visit, and we went to the grapevine mall. There was a store called asian living AND IT WAS LIKE HEAVEN TO ME! Im a HUGE kpop and anime fan, so i walked in and there was so much merch! The store is pretty small but the stuff are amazing. I bought a Hatsune Miku figure for $12 which on other web sites its like $40! The posters were about 3 or 4 dollars, and they have so many groups! I got a G-dragon (BIGBANG) and Baekhyun (EXO-K) posters which were a good size for the price. I didnt have that much on me but I wouldve gotten more. I know they have 2ne1, EXO K (not EXO- M, i was a bit disappointed since Lu Han is my bias but thats okay) Girls Generation, SHINee, Super Junior, 2pm, U-KISS. I forgot the rest but they have ALOT! They also sell backpacks with anime and kpop groups on them. Some asian clothing like kimonos, scroll posters, keychains, plushies (mainly Pokemon) and all kinds of asian stuff! I cant wait to go back texas and go there to buy more posters and hopefully plushies! (PS. I ASKED THE LADY THAT WORKED THERE FOR THE POSTERS, YOU GOTTA ASK AND SHELL TELL WHICH GROUPS SHE HAS AND SHOW YOU THE ONES SHE HAS FROM THAT GROUP)
Love the store but a little on the expensive side
This store is amazing
I LOVED IT!!!!! Wanna go back!!!
Anime
Excellent
