Manga Monday: Come See Us At Rose City Comic-Con!
Sept. 15, 2014
Rose City Comic-Con, like Neo-Tokyo, has E-X-P-L-O-D-E-D in attendance since 2012; that year, the first show had 4100 people attending. Last year, it was 18,000!

Manga Mondays: 2013 Cosplay Album Part 2: Anime Expo!
Nov. 25, 2013
I admire Anime Expo; I more than just like it.
