Remyuoru no Renkin Jyutsushi - New Import, In Stock

The entrepreneurial spirit is alive and kicking in Mainichi's Remyuoru no Renkin Jyutsushi where the protagonist is a young alchemist named Tiko with a yen for the retail trade. After successfully borrowing money from a bank, Tiko sets herself up with a retail establishment which sells all sorts of wares. Foodstuffs may be placed alongside weapons to draw a diverse consumer group into the shop.

Selling is the name of the game but Tiko also has to contend with the competition, product development, and compete in various contests to show her retail management mettle. There's even the occasional mishap to test Tiko's resolve in staying the course. Once the shop is profitable, expansion plans may be drawn up to expand shelf space and stock ever more exotic items which command a premium price.
