The following stores carry manga in Japanese and should have copies of the Futaba-kun Changes compilations. I've had good experiences with Nikaku Animart as well as Kinokuniya in both Seattle and San Jose. Those are the only stores on this list I've personally dealt with. Although Kinokuniya and Nikaku will do mail order, some of the other stores on this list may not.
