Fanime took place on May 25 – 28, 2018 at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, CA. The con is a Bay Area legend for otaku. This is the premiere Bay Area anime con. Fanime has had its ups and downs in the past several years. This is our first time attending since Fanime 2012. In comparison, the guest list featured more fan guests (Chalk Twins, AiCosu, Linda Le, etc) than industry guests.
