State Convention Center in Somerset New jersey the first week of May, 2016. The first

year event features a star-studded guest list of voice actors, cosplayers, and more!

“After producing countless events celebrating comics and pop culture, and our first

convention in New Jersey having been such a success, we decided the time was right to

produce an anime show” said Martha Donato, Executive Director and Founder of MAD

magazine for anime and manga, we knew we had the makings of what will be one of the

biggest weekends of the year for fans in New Jersey!”

“We felt OTAKU USA Magazine was in a position to bring something fresh to the anime

convention genre, so we reached out to MAD Event Entertainment with their vast

experience in the field to produce something really different and exciting,” said Carl

Gnam, editorial director.
