Of course, cosplay is a huge deal at conventions. From dressing up as your favorite characters and merely exploring the event to attending gatherings of those dressed from the same series, it’s a wonderful experience.
Though there is not currently information on gatherings on the Anime Impulse website, we recommend emailing to learn more.
Stay Prepared
Like with any event, there are many things to consider before attending. Here is a list of what you should bring:
- A water bottle
- Charger and cable for your phone
- Any medicine you might need
- Money for food, merch, and art
- Snacks
- Extra shoes (if your cosplay requires heels, and your feet end up hurting)
- Materials to get autographed from your favorite guests!
