Wanted to let you know about this awesome place I visit regularly whenever I'm in town. The owners are really nice and the selection is crazy!
Florida Oriental Trading (a.k.a. Thuanh Dinh)
http://www.floridaorientaltrading.com/
I've been going here since 1998 and they ALWAYS have the best selection of anime and manga goods, Asian karaoke, and Asian pop CDs. I always stop in whenever I'm in town.
I also found a few Techno mixes by some Asian DJs at this store a few years ago. I'm not sure if they still sell that though.
The first time I came here 10 years ago, I spent $80 in one visit. Having earned the name Anime Girl, it was easy for me. Lol. I bought a Tenchi Muyo mousepad, some posters for friends, a few Chinese CDs and some Vietnamese karaoke.
For anime and manga goods, they also have wall scrolls, anime plush toys, stickers, various DVDs of anime and Japanese shows, soundtracks for anime and video games, toys and models, T-shirts, etc. They also carry some Japanese magazines, Japanese pop CDs, and hentai if you're into that stuff. (I think they might have some Korean CDs, but I'm not sure.)
Also, they have a HUGE selection of Chinese and Vietnamese CDs.
For the singing star in you, you must check out their huge karaoke selection for music in English, Vietnamese, Chinese, Filipino, etc.
To be honest, not many of the anime/Asian pop stores I saw in NYC measured up to the coolness of this one.

I know you made this post back in 2008, but I'm desperate to find karaoke music in Orlando! I just can't seem to find any karaoke music stores that sell English as well as international songs anymore... Do you know if this place is still open?
Hi! Sorry I just now saw this. I don't know if they are still there, but try asking around the Vietnamese groceries and restaurants. Maybe someone knows where to get them. I order everything online now. Yesasia.com is a good site to check out for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean music. Good luck!
