Anime in Eastern Idaho
R. Alex Whitlock
All this talk of anime reminds me of a story.
A little while back I was driving down one of the town's main drags and I saw a marquee that said "Anime is back!"
I thought, "cool" as last I knew there wasn't actually a place to get anime in Pocatello (besides the paltry selections at the national chains). Being that this is a college town (of sorts) that it would be good for them to have a place that puts enough of a value on anime as to put it on their marquee.
I figured that it must be a comic or gaming shop or something.
I should have figured that it was a porn shop.

Observations
I didn't know that where you are is big enough to qualify for a porn shop.
The Hentai room. Goes to show that my mind isn't in the gutter, that I didn't bring that up when discussing the downside of conventions.
Mike,
We have got two, actually. Not bad for a town in the heart of Mormonland. Though as the saying goes, Idaho Falls (where I work) got the temple and Pocatello got the brothel. We also have what must be the only gay bar in eastern Idaho.
Aldahlia,
We never paid too much attention to where the hentai room was, but we always found it simply because of the late night long lines and the guys checking for ID.
I actually went in to the Hentai room once out of curiosity. I was only in there five minutes, but I am still haunted by that experience... and not by what was playing on the screen.

We're giving Captcha another try and are playing around with a text-based Q&A variant of Captcha. So bear with us as we try to figure out how to best get a handle ont he problem. Please note that any comment on a post more than 30 days old will go into the moderation queue, where I will get to it when I can which could be once a week.
