What is Otakuthon?


Otakuthon is Quebec's largest anime convention promoting Japanese animation (anime), Japanese graphic novels (manga), related gaming and Japanese pop-culture (music, cinema, television). It is held annually for 3 days in downtown Montreal during a weekend in the summer months. Otakuthon is a bilingual event so it has programs in both official languages.

Otakuthon est la plus grande convention du Québec en mettant en premier plan l'animation Japonaise (anime), les bandes-dessinées Japonaise (manga), les jeux vidéos et la culture pop Japonaise (musique, cinéma, télévision). L'événement est tenue annuellement pour trois jours dans le centre-ville de Montréal dans les jours d'été. Otakuthon est un événement bilingue donc, leur programme sont ajustés dans les deux langues officielles.

This year the con will run August 22 -24 @ the Palais des congrès de Montréal (201 Viger Avenue West, Montréal, Québec)


The purpose of this thread is to discuss the convention and possibly plan an osu! meet up :D

Post in the thread if you plan on going so I can add you to the attendance list :P

Everything's planned and weekend pass is bought, but something came up earlier this week that might prevent me from being free that entire weekend.

all i can say is: i hope it's more organized than AN2014's meet-up--that was a nightmare since everyone was in one place ;w;

Come the 23. I think it'll be you best chance to meet as much people as possible. As for me, I'll be there all 3 day. Friday, I'll be wearing my purple Osu T-shirt. Satursday and Sunday, I'll be cosplaying Shido Itsuka.

Comme on dit, On compte les dodos!

Well i wont make it for the pre-ordering it seems, I have no money at all now and I don't think this will change for the event (Im too lazy to do the waiting line for the 3rd year in a row, no way) , 85% im not comming, might just come over and say hi and maybe grab a bubbletea, wont be able to be inside the event.

Does Otakuthon publish a detailed schedule like what Anime North does? I can't find one on the website. I might come if the schedule is interesting enough.

Last year they posted the tentative schedule a little less than two weeks before the con. I wouldn't compare it to a big con like AN because it's much smaller and can't house as many different events/panels. However, I find small cons, like Otakuthon, much more organize and even more interactive (If they have the Attack on Titan/Capture the flag game like they did at G-anime, make sure you join. That was fun!). Still, lots of stuff to get in the dealers room + great cosplayers (go to the photoshoots guys!)

Otakuthon also has quite a bit of k-pop events/panels [THIS YEAR THEY'RE PLAYING RUNNING MAN AT THE CON YAY!...if you don't know what that is, please, just ignore me XD]
