Skull-face Bookseller Honda-san
Ever wonder what misfortune those poor Barnes and Noble sales clerks go through after being burdened with helping you locate your smutty manga? Skull-face Bookseller Honda-san readily answers that question, and folks, the answer is painfully embarrassing.
Skull-face Bookseller Honda-san is a comedy anime about the rudimentary lives of a group of bookstore clerks. Throughout the show Honda and her staff explain the ins-and-outs of running a bookstore and all the customer horror stories that come with it. This includes having knowledge of and locating a customer’s raunchy reading material and struggling to translate a foreigner’s broken Japanese. The anime’s unorthodox stories are based on the lived experiences of its creator while she worked at a bookstore, so you know it’s cringe is grade-A stuff.
