There USED to be a gaming place called The Forge, but that closed during the first part of the Pandemic unfortunately. I've heard of two card places but have never been.

As for anime shops? I know Third Eye Comics (Mechanicsville and Short Pump) and a few other comic shops carry anime and manga related merchandise. There's also apparently a placed called BoxLunch in Bon Air that apparently seems interesting, but I haven't gone down that way yet.

Yep, in the Chesterfield Towne Center mall there's a store named Box Lunch that sells a bunch of anime/disney/harry potter related merch, mostly clothes. I can't remember if they have figures for sale. No arcade machines afaik. (It's a small store)

On that same note, in that same mall, Barnes & Noble, Hot Topic, & Spencer's apparently also have a bunch of anime merch now. (Not sure how old your child is or what you want them around, but Spencer's is more geared towards late teens & adults. E.g. The back wall has sex toys & lingerie iirc.)
