5 Days In The Life of A-to-J: An Anime Expo 2024 Recap

Day 0 (7/3):

Also, my birthday and my cat’s.  

I had a birthday breakfast with my family before catching the train to Los Angeles. It took about two hours to make it to Union Station and from there, I caught the Purple Line to 7th and Metro and walked another 15 minutes or so to the hotel where I met up with Manuel. 

Over the next few hours, the rest of our roommates and friends came in and the party slowly started which was mostly drinking and singing along to whatever music was playing on the speaker at the time. We also tried to get a game of Jukebox, the karaoke musical that was recommended by Lemar the Con Guy during our interview with him at Anime Los Angeles earlier this year. We got through about four songs before it ended because our other players were too drunk to continue.

Anime Boston 2024 Report & Breakdown

Intro

Anime Boston, my favorite big anime convention. This was my fifth time going after going in 2016, 2017, 2022 and 2023. It’s always nice to go and see some of my friends from college/Tora-Con. This time, it was the week after Tora-Con so I had seen most of them just recently.  

There are a lot of different things I could possibly cover about this con but I thought it might be interesting to break down my experience event by event to show what going to a con is like for me. It was a new experience writing this all down so I hope you enjoy it.
