Otaku U 2023

The meaning of Otaku to the club’s Leadership/Consulting Team and their members is being a passionate fan of anime, manga, comics, cartoons, video games, or K-Pop/J-Pop. U is taken from the word university because the convention is being held on our college campus. Our main goal is to create an event for people to come together from an array of fandoms to celebrate and share their enthusiasm with other anime fans, no matter their ages.
