Welcome

It is time once again for the War Zone Ashiake...

Every year it happens. actually twice a year this happens...

What is it overrun by you ask?

...

.....

............

Otaku!

Welcome to Ani-Con!

Two times a year Ashiake is host to Ani-Con!

A huge convention with all sorts of things! from Anime to Manga, Heck even Video Games!

But not just any major brand product... Everything is "home made" or self published...

That makes everything here ultra rare! Something, after the convention can resell from up to 10 to 20 times the original price!

Ani-Con takes place in the long open air arcades that are in downtown Ashiake.

There are also concerts on the "last day" where they show all the highest rated Anime from that session.

Cosplay is also a favorite among real "Hard Core" fans..

*My Costume this session. don't you like!*

Officials suggest that first time attendees come in the afternoon as to not get stuck in morning lines...

Some of the morning lines can last up to an hour! And to even get in in the morning can take up to four hours!

Some fateful "Idol Encounters" have occurred durring this session.

One "Encounter" Included MamaLuigi945, who was seen drinking out of a water fountain.

Ani-ConAshiake2-1.jpg?t=1343164779

Ani-Con may only last three days, but its average attendance is over 490,000!

It is second in size to only Tokyo's Comiket.

Thanks for coming to Ani-Con!

Please come again next session, maybe you could even visit in the morning hours...

;)

Also stay tuned as we visit Ashiake (Non Ani-Con)

The picture second from the last, what is the piece that connects the road to the elevated road?

Also, the planning and layout is great, I love seeing these Asian cities come to life.

The open-air arcades are awesome, what a great idea that is! But Ani-Con? No thank you! The otaku gross me out.

Really really good looking! Where did you get those open air arcades and what is that building with the green helipad in the 1st pic (looks like a mall or theater)?

:lol: Nice, Simulator. I don't think I'm worthy of the title "idol," though. :P

Great job, as always. The variety and quality of the BATs you use is one of the best parts of this CJ. 5/5 and +1

Although I'm not a fan of anime or comics in general, this is a solid update. Nice choice of buildings.
