The magical, the mystical, the manga… This weekend, fanatics and creators come together to revel in one of Japan’s greatest gifts to the world. FanimeCon features a 24-hour gaming hall for early birds and night owls, vendors selling memorabilia, creative cosplay and more. Guests include YouTubers from The Dex, in-character cosplayer VampyBitMe and bouncy musical group The Beat Garden. The convention features everything from speed dating to dance—including K-Pop, to Anime-core to ballroom—and a highly anticipated music video showcase.
