AnimeJapan is an awesome event for fans of any anime!
I recently wrote/blogged about Tokyo Motorcycle Show, which occurs at the same time and place as AnimeJapan, so it made sense for me to follow that up quickly with this post.
As alluded to in the title of the post, AnimeJapan is great for fans of almost any form of anime to attend. From the newest, currently running shows, to even the older, more historic/iconic titles... AnimeJapan will have you covered to some degree at least. You can find displays and goods of the older titles, but the newer titles will have more investment from the companies here, and represent them with displays, merchandise, and yes, in many cases cosplay of the anime characters:
Additionally, there are a lot of photo opportunities on "sets", where one could get onto and take a pretty cool/interesting photo of themselves. Just ask one of the attending staff to take the photo of you. Here's some of my examples:
AnimeJapan is simply an awesome event for anyone who has, or has had in the past, a love for anything anime. Even for the casual fan, this event has a lot to see and perhaps the potential to bring you in even deeper into the fandom.
Recommendations:
- Recommend attending the event on Saturday, as it is the less crowded of the two public days for this event.
- Some food options are available, but crowds/lines might not make it the best experience. If possible, have lunch elsewhere.
- "Fast tickets", which give your priority entry and access to the event 30 minutes before opening, are available online about three weeks before the event, on the event website.
Specifics:
