NY Anime Festival

There's another Con in New York at the Javits Center. This one is New York Anime Festival- lots of manga, cosplay and anime for all. I had fun walking the floor, buying a whole lot of books and a few tee-shirts. The "maid" cafe (gorgeous young girls in aprons and short skirts-yes, weird) has a sushi chef , a happy addition to the usually incredibly dismal food at the Javits Center.

So far, the highlight of the weekend for me was singing (badly) at the karaoke bar after the Yen Press dinner.

Here are a few pictures.
