[Event Review] Japan-America Association of South Carolina: Cherry Blossom Festival

By: Krow Smith | @coffeewithkrow I believe cultural appreciation and exchange is very important, especially as someone who enjoys anime and manga. I want to experience more of Japanese culture rather than simply gaining it through osmosis via their media. Peggy has too and, recently, she has been getting involved with the Japan-America Association of South Carolina (JAASC). So, when I heard about the JAASC … Continue reading [Event Review] Japan-America Association of South Carolina: Cherry Blossom Festival

By: Krow Smith | @coffeewithkrow Last year, I reviewed the demo for Spirit City: Lofi Sessions and have been a huge fan of the game ever since.

[Review] Banzaicon 2025: A Pricey but Passionate Gathering

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Attending a small anime convention can be a mixed bag—you never know if you’re stepping into a hidden gem or just paying for a glorified meetup. Unfortunately, Banzaicon leaned more toward the latter. While the passion was there, the price tag didn’t quite match the experience and so I want to discuss this convention in a way that is … Continue reading [Review] Banzaicon 2025: A Pricey but Passionate Gathering

The Magic of Magikarp

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Hello, Everyone! SO… I created a panel on Magikarp!

[Review] Anime Town Greenville

This review is a bit of a mixed bag because I spent the weekend (31 Jan.–2 Feb. 2025) wavering between feeling sick and being mostly okay, which definitely influenced my overall experience. First, let me start with some context: I have a rule about not attending events when I’m sick, but since I was well enough to work and thought I was mostly over it … Continue reading [Review] Anime Town Greenville
