I’m curious to know how many of you attend anime conventions and what your experiences have been like.

I’ve been to Anime North over here in Toronto. I first started going around a decade ago and haven’t missed the convention since then (except when it was cancelled for COVID). I normally just wander around the Vendors Hall and look at all the figurines that will break my wallet if I were to buy them.

Recently I started visiting panels which I generally have avoided in the past. You’ll get some good panels that are fun, but you’ll also get some absolutely awfully-run panels that makes you question how they even got to host those panels.

      The guests are just not worth going. The nearest convention I’d want to attend is either Crunchyroll Expo, Otakon, or Anime NYC, and both are at least a 3 hour flight away (probably closer to 4).
