Come celebrate the rich history of Japanese entertainment culture!
This is a hugely open gathering for those of you / us who cosplay as characters from the previous century. Essentially if your cosplay character appears in Anime, Manga, Video Games or Live Action that began PRIOR to 2001, then this is the gathering for you! Although I like to have a decidedly Japanese lean to this gathering, it is not completely exclusive.
Day : Friday, May 23rd (Day 1).
Time : 6PM - 7PM.
Meeting Place (MP) : Same as Location.
Location (L) : Gatherings G3, Panels Wood Stairs.
This will be our eighth consecutive year hosting and TEN YEARS since we began hosting duties!
Gatherings G3 is the wooden tiered platform area along the stairs that lead down to the panel rooms inside the convention center on the lower level. We will be on the downstairs wooden tiered platforms between the stairs and the escalators.
Fanime / gathering co-host will likely be taking group pictures during the Gathering/Event this year. If you do not want to be included in those pictures please step aside for those photos. By remaining with the group when the pictures are being taken you give your consent to be photographed.
