Previously known as "CGM Night", "Culture Japan Night" or "CJ Night" is an event held worldwide that brings together folks who share a passion for Japanese Pop Culture. Because we all share the same interest, its easy for us to make new comrades at the event and grow our network. Culture Japan Night is *the* place to be to build your network in the anime/otaku industry.
Many folks from the Industry have attend and up until now including Good Smile Company, Kotobukiya, Volks, Obitsu, AmiAmi, Hobby Search, J-List, Google Japan, Amazon Japan, Microsoft Japan, Sony, Bushiroad, Ascii Media Works and more.
Folks who attend CJ Night can expect to see and/or participate in cosplay, doll and figure displays, meet industry and like minded folks to seek friendship, collaborations or opportunities - but I only provide the venue and means - the rest is up to you!
