About Aniventure 2014
Genres
Aniventure is an annual two-day festival for traditional and modern Japanese culture. It brings together fans of Japanese animation - anime, manga comics, console and computer games, martial arts, cosplay and provides a platform for young talents in the field of art, the production of costumes and accessories, theater, video editing and effects. The idea of a nationwide gathering of fans of Japanese culture, anime and manga goes back to the time of birth of the first chat rooms, Internet forums and online clubs in the late '90s. Only in 2006, however, for the first time this idea goes from just a meeting to form a festival - within four days in hotel Zvezdica, Sofia, Bulgaria - Aniventure is held for the first time. Diversity in the program causes great interest and the event is repeated next year in hotel Ribaritza. However due to the growing number of visitor it became apparent that the convention could no longer be held in hotels.
