I'm not sure about the anime side of things, but I've definitely seen numerous gaming stores that are located throughout the area.

Where are you located? That might help drive suggestions.

While smartphones definitely have their limitations compared to dedicated cameras you can still capture a LOT of nice images with one.

Find a camera app that allows you to take photos in RAW, as this will let you have more leeway when you are editing.

Not having gear will absolutely prevent you from obtaining certain shots, but honestly the most important pieces of kit are your eyes and your mind. Without those it doesn't matter if you're using top-of-the-line pro equipment or not.

I've seen better pics taken with a smartphone/point and shoot compared to a $15k Leica setup.

If you find yourself loving the hobby with a smartphone then you can jump into the entry-level DSLR arena for only a couple hundo bucks. Cared-for used is a killer option in the photography world.
