I'm staying in Tokyo for the next week or so and thought I'd check if I could buy some nice movie releases here. So far I'm only finding "adult" anime releases and some very limited selections of general movies.
I'm trying now to order from amazon.co.jp to my hotel address the Japanese BD release of "Salute of Jugger" to see how that works. They claim 24h delivery so why not. If it works I might order more.
Do you know of any store in Tokyo with wide enough selection to be of interest to an international movie collector? I am also looking for BD release of anime title Mirai Shonen Conan (no English subtitles I know but I love this title).
What/where to buy in Tokyo?

Shops in Akihabara all over have a big selection for anime. Disk Union has some good titles but not so much with anime. I go there a lot for cult titles, imports, and music related stuff. Book Off stores are at almost every train station. The large ones in Shinjuku, Ikebukuro and Akihabara are recommended.

You can try Tower Records Shibuya.
