Information:Welcome to Minnesota's very own convention dedicated to Anime, Manga, and Japanese culture. This is a convention run by fans for fans. We are open to people of all ages and interest related to this media explosion. Register... Get a hotel room... Volunteer... The excitement awaits... Take the Detour today... Since every Anime convention has catgirls for a mascot... we decided to go with something else entirely... You Can't Handle the Catgirls... Be different. Be unique.
