ABOUT JAPAN LA
What is it?
Japan L.A. is a little store off Melrose Ave., in Los Angeles. It was started by a girl named Jamie, who wanted to create a store where people could buy cute stuff, inspired by Japanese and L.A. pop culture. You can find lots of unique gifts and t-shirts with Japanese pop culture inspired characters and graphics. It has a more girly feel because it is owned by a girl, but don't let the Hello Kitty fool you. There is tons of stuff for guys too, and you can play video games there. We like Katamari Damacy, Bubble Bobble, and Street Fighter II right now.
