SMASH 2012

Three years ago Kenji and I went to our first convention which accelerated the creation of this blog. Today we returned to this year's SMASH man I have to say it has grown exponentially in this time frame! It shows that the influence of anime is becoming more mainstream year after year. The same goes for this blog I still remember the days when we were struggling to get past 300 visitors now we are in the 26 thousands!

The lovely Hobbyco girls with their Gundam themed uniforms. There was a third but I didn't manage to get a photo. They were promoting the Gundam Builders Cup... makes me want to come out of building retirement!

And as if you can forget about the amazing artists in the crowds!

Stay tuned for Animania later this month this would cover all the conventions on the calendar this year which is a first for ODU!
