Bethel Park Anime #20--Conventions

So, we know all about what happens at conventions thanks to Tekko 5 and Tekko 6, but Tekkoshocon isn't the only convention out there. Say you're on vacation this summer, and you're bored out of your mind. Your folks want to go to the beach, or look at some boring landscape or other tourist-y thing. And you're thinking, "boy, I wish there was some kind of anime thing around here".

Well, your wish may come true. I have here, thanks to wikipedia, a wonderful list of anime conventions all around the world.

Of these, Anime Expo is by far the largest American anime convention, with more than 40,000 attendees last year! This year's current AX is being held at this very moment in Los Angeles, California! AX takes place on the July 4th weekend, and runs 4 days.

It's a fairly self-explanatory entry this week, so I'll leave it at that. Have a good holiday weekend everyone!
