El festival de animé más grande del mundo que reúne a la industria y los fanáticos en un solo lugar
Despite the flashing lights, multiple television screens, video games, Cosplaying girls, and promotional models, it would be a fair assessment to say that unlike other events I have been to at Tokyo Big Sight, AnimeJapan is most definitely the loudest and the most overwhelming. After walking around for only twenty minutes, I already feel myself getting a headache. What certainly doesn’t help matters, is the multiple people pushing promotional flyers into my face as I walk, or the men that have no concept of distance, and will happily shout through a megaphone whilst it is inches away from my ears. My overall impression of this event differs from my expectations. Surprisingly, there are a lot more women here than I expected, thanks to a rise in animation depicting male characters performing sports. The most popular of such shows, is a new cycling Anime featuring men and bicycles. Productions of other popular animation depicting sport include those with themes based around Mahjong, golf, figure skating, and fishing. Anyway, I just don't really enjoy Anime in general, so perhaps this event wasn't for me. Everyone else here seems to be having a good time though, except for the people passed out by the entrance with their huge bags of Anime goods.
