Thanks to everybody who contributed to creating a list of worldwide Anime/Japan events which can be seen here - needs some cleaning up which I will do later.
Would like to get your feedback as to why you attend these Anime/Japan related events? I mainly attend events to see trends and meet comrades - both consumers and folks who have booths.
As for cash - usually try to convince wifey to lemme take about 20000 yen although all I end up buying is mainly small stuff with cute 2D girlies printed on them ^^;
Why do you attend anime events?
Finally, what makes a great event and what makes a bad one?
