These days, when customers are cut off at each store in the aftermath of the corona, this store is booming than ever.



[Larry Java/Store Owner: Customers are returning.

When I came in, I bought comics, sports cards, and related souvenirs.]



These are the original comic books that contain the performances of superheroes, which are more familiar to the present generation as movies.



From the latest edition to the books collected by the owner Larry's father, more than 40,000 books are neatly arranged.



As the time spent at home increased due to the coronavirus, the number of visitors exploded.



This is because you can easily and comfortably enjoy the history and backstory of heroes that are difficult to meet on the screen.



[Larry Java/Store owner: I don't need a phone or a monitor.

Just take out the book.

It's great that you don't have to worry about power or battery.]



Cards with photos and autographs of sports stars are especially popular with young fans.



Sports card sales in the US have more than doubled compared to last year, both online and offline.



Fans who cannot go to the stadium are complaining about collecting cards from their favorite teams and players.



The old hobby that the father's generation had been enthusiastic about was revived.



[Larry Java/Store Owner: Corona has a big impact.

It seems that people go back to their past hobbies and fall into memories and think of the past.]



These days, we have fallen a step away from the busy life that is entangled like a net with cutting-edge equipment and technology.



Finding simple, simple pleasures that you can easily immerse yourself in may be one way to overcome the depression brought on by Corona.
