It's fairly common to find these kinds of stores. Space is at a premium in many areas of Japan, especially the big cities. This results in stores that span several small floors, occupy basements, or are located down side alleys. It's a good idea to keep an eye out for them as you walk around.
Space is a bit of a problem within the stores as well. Aisles are rarely wide enough to accomodate two people standing side by side, so there's a lot of waiting for other patrons to reach an area where you can move around them. Still, these are some of my favorite places to seek out, as you never know what you'll find inside. This store in particular had a lot of Gunpla models, which aren't really my thing. Nevertheless, I walked away with some One Piece merchandise as well as a Pinkie Street figure for Amanda.
