Second Convention in January

Anime-ZAP! focuses on events like our dances and concerts, instead of voice actor guests. It’s an awesome chance to cosplay and make more friends. Don’t just take my word for it, watch some video from this year. This is Anime-ZAP!’s fourth year, and we’re expecting over 1,000 people.
