Coordinator: Anime Matsuri’s John Leigh//Duration: 1 h
This year we are honored to have among us John Leigh, main organizer of Anime Matsuri convention which takes place every year in Houston, USA, and, as of this year, in Hawaii as well, being one of the most important otaku conventions in the States. America has a long history of anime conventions and we were thinking that it will surely be interesting for you to hear some of it. During his panel, John will talk to you about how the conventions unfold in the US, how they are different and how they are similar to conventions in other countries, and will also give you some insights about the American otaku events landscape in general and Anime Matsuri in particular.
