It
was the tenth anniversary of ANIME EXPO - regarded as one of the
biggest and most fabulous anime conventions/expos in the States.
This year
around 15,000 fans wandered through the doors of the Long Beach
Convention Centre to attend a huge range of events, dress up as
their favourite anime character - or maybe see their favourite,
catch videos, play games, hear what the many Guests of Honour
had to say...and of course spend their hard earned cash on on
a huge range of anime stuff in the Dealers room.
It was our
second time to attend AX - and our first to have a booth where
we were sold things face to face. Us
in the flesh.
As part of
our recovery therapy, the ANIMAX-ites who went to AX would like
to share their own stories with you...
Read on and
enjoy...
