Otakon took place on August 12-14, 2016 at the Baltimore Convention Center in downtown Baltimore. Otakon has been around for about two decades. For 17 years, they called downtown Baltimore home. This would be Otakon's final year in Batlimore before moving to Washington DC. Hence, Otakon had a "Bon Voyage" theme where mascots donned sailor outfits at sunset as if to say a fond farewell to the place that brought on memories for 17 years. This year's guests included MICHI, ALL OFF, Kazuki Akane, Yui Makino, Nobuhiro Kikuchi, and many American voice actors. Additionally, this may have been the hottest Otakon yet with heat advisories going off the charts! This is Scarlet Rhapsody's fourth time covering Otakon. 2017 had ups and downs, but there was no other way to say farewell to Inner Harbor.
