Welcome to Anime Banzai 2008!
We had an excellent year in 2007 and were ready to get going on another great year! We'll be adding new stuff to the website all the time, so be sure to come back often and see what's happening with Banzai!


 

What is Anime Banzai?
Anime Banzai is an educational convention focusing on Japanese anime (animation), manga (comics) and culture. Anime Banzai is sponsored by The End of the World Anime Club located at Salt Lake Community College. In 2005, the first Anime Banzai was held and we reached 600 attendees, which was double what we had expected. Even though The End of the World is in charge of Banzai anyone is welcome to head up a commitee, volunteer the day of, be a panelist or just show up and have fun!

There is a large anime fanbase in Utah, but sadly, not many places for anime fans to come together, hang out, and have fun! With Anime Banzai, we're hoping to bring anime/manga and video/card games together for a few days of fun. With your support, one day we'll be able to expand to a full three-day convention.
