FYE or "For Your Entertainment" is like the Starbucks of electronic and foreign media. It's a store for games, game accessories, game shirts, CD's, phones, IPODs, and of course, Anime merchandise.

But, is it really worth it?



Not entirely.

First of all, the candies at the store are overpriced to triple their regular price.

Gummy packets are 100 Yen each or $1 USD, but in FYE it's $3 a packet and all of the anime products are way too expensive. DVDs are $40(for 3-4 episodes) when in Japan they're about $15.

Basically most of their products suck because they're not even priced correctly.


Don't go to FYE for anime merchandise, import your merchandise from Japan and you might pay less.

Everything at FYE is overpriced. I would only go there as a last resort.

Yeah, but unless you wanna waste enough gas to go up to Newbury comics, it's the closest place that has ramune, pocky, and Japanese Candy.

XD yeah, the prices for the candy there are almost as much as you'd pay to fill enough gas in your car to get to newberry comics.

*smacks with newspaper*
NO!
BAD!

Rent MySims from the blockbuster near your house.
It's kinda short and different from the sims (and has no motive levels) so you might want to try it before you buy it.
