Every year Impact Comics runs “OtakuFest” whereby comic enthusiasts dress up as their favourite character and descend on Garema Place for a grand old time.
This year it’s on November 15 from 2 to 4pm, followed by a screening of Hayao Miyazaki’s animated masterpiece “The Wind Rises” at Dendy.
From their website:
OtakuFest is Canberra’s (Australia’s?) favourite outdoor, free entry, all welcome cosplay event.
OtakuFest is really simple, head down to Garema Place in costume, meet some friends and maybe win some some sweet prizes supplied by MADMAN or grab some manga or anime on sale at IMPACT!
2014 is IMPACT COMICS’ 10th birthday so we thought we’d make OtakuFest even bigger!
Who can be trusted?
In a world of spin and confusion, there’s never been a more important time to support independent journalism in Canberra.
If you trust our work online and want to enforce the power of independent voices, I invite you to make a small contribution.
Every dollar of support is invested back into our journalism to help keep citynews.com.au strong and free.
Thank you,
Ian Meikle, editor
