San Francisco is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and San Francisco follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Cool bookstore, nothing else like it in SF that specializes in Japanese books. I enjoy browsing their magazine section, lots of interesting art magazines. Their manga section is downstairs and is quite extensive. I have taken my nieces here and they love it. All of the manga are plastic wrapped so you can’t look inside the books. Understandable for collectors, but wish we could actually read the books.

Very cool spot to visit. The Japan Center has a bunch of cool spots to shop and eat! The bookstore has a great selection of manga and Japanese magazines, also a bunch of cool themed gifts! Pretty clean for the amount of foot traffic. You could easily spend a whole day browsing the many shops or just looking at the immense selection at the bookstore.

I had so much fun at Kinokuniya!! I used to live in Portland and they have one there that I was never able to get to. Im so glad I was finally able to go to one. This location is super big and so much fun to explore! The other shops in the mall are also super cool to look in. Highly recommend!!

A must-stop at Japantown, so many books, tons of cute plush toys, whole downstairs with manga stuff. You can always find something interesting here. What I love most is the design corner, awesome collection of design books. The totoro corner is also great, prices are much more reasonable than smaller shops in other bay area spots.

At the time I went there were two pop ups happening which both had great merch! Great bookstore with such a great selection with variety! There's two floors to this bookstore so there's definitely something you'll find from manga to collectibles the only complaint is that it's very hot in there maybe AC wasn't on but besides that great place to stop by!
