Anime North 2015

Hello all!

As you may know Anime North is an annual anime convention in Toronto, Canada, which celebrates anime, manga, music, games and all other forms of Japanese culture. This year Anime North will be the weekend of May 22 - 24, 2015 at the Toronto Congress Centre and International Plaza Hotel on Dixon Road.

If you were planning to go but haven't already bought your tickets, you better hurry up. Only Friday and Sunday day passes are left!

There's an interesting event held at Anime North every year called the Nominoichi. In essence it's a marketplace of con-goers just like you and me, who get to sell their wares for a few hours on Friday night. There's really no telling what you'll find as everyone will have something different, but you can be sure there'll be lots of interesting things. For more information, please visit the Anime North Nominoichi page on the official website.

This is it's tenth year running, which means that it's my ninth year selling! The event has grown to a massive couple hundred table affair located in the heart of the happenings at Anime North - the Congress Center - from a small maybe 20 table event in some nondescript room at the... Was it the Sheraton or the Marriott? It's been so long I don't even remember. In either case it was small and everyone had to hike over the damn bridge to get to it and that's if they even knew about it...

Like the Nominoichi has grown, so too has my offerings as one of it's repeat sellers. This year after my first trip to Japan last summer, I have a bunch of things to sell coming directly from the birth place of Otaku culture.

If you're interested at all, please do check out the Nominoichi threads on the official Anime North forum. You can find my sales list at Table N205. I'll be taking reservations until the 19th, that's the Tuesday before the con. I'll be sending invoice numbers out on the 20th which people with reserves will need to have to claim their items at my table on Friday at the event.

The Nominoichi will be held on Friday, May 22nd, from 7:00pm to 10:30pm in Hall A at the Toronto Congress Center (TCC).

Hope to see you all there!
