Animation Store Manager

Synopsis
Anizawa Meito takes over an Animate store as its wildly enthusiastic new manager, inheriting what he calls his predecessor's dying wish: keep the shop running. Across two minutes of exaggerated fight choreography and slapstick, he whips his staff into shape to move as much anime merchandise as humanly possible. The short exists purely as an ad for the Animate retail chain rather than a standalone story, and later spawned manga and radio drama spin-offs built around the same character.
