In an article entitled "Anime's In" in the current issue of Video Business, VB Editor Marcy Magiera reported that Target is setting up anime sections in 600 stores. Funimation, which handles the home video for Dragon Ball, DBZ, DBGT, Yu-Gi-Oh, Yu Yu Hakusho, Blue Gender, Kiddy Grade, Tenchi Muyo GXP, and the yet to be released (in the U.S.) Detective Conan, will act as Target's "merchandising partner" in setting up the anime sections in Target stores.

An announcement by Viz, on the other hand, lists the number of stores involved at over 700. Click here to link to a Viz page that allows you to find out what Target stores in your area will have the anime sections.
