I hope having two cons in one thread won't get too confusing! I had lots of fun at the Anime North meet up and would love to see a repeat at these two cons next month!

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 16 -18 @ the Palais des congrès de Montréal (201 Viger Avenue West, Montréal, Québec)

What is Fan Expo Canada?

Canada's Fan Expo Canada is an annual multi-genre fan convention. Originally showcasing comic books, science fiction/fantasy and film/television and related popular arts, Fan Expo Canada has expanded over the years to include a larger range of pop culture and fandom elements, such as horror, anime, manga, animation, toys, collectible card games, video games and web entertainment.

This year the con will run August 22 -25 @ the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, North and South Buildings (255 Front Street West and 222 Bremner Blvd, respectively. Toronto, Ontario )

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

Post in the thread if you plan on going to either of the conventions so I can add you to the attendance list

I'll be attending Otakuthon 2013, can't confirm that I'll be attending the Fan Expo since I might be in a college term ... At Otakuthon if you see some tall blondy guy playing osu in L.A.N center, it's me!
