Listen up all of you Otaku folk!
Anime Day is about to spent it's second year in action!
Last year Anime Day was invented to be celebrated on January 19th, and soon the second coming will arrive.
This is the Original Statement (with some very slight editing):
"I'm just letting people know that I've made a new holiday. Will happen every January 19th from now on. It shall be traditionally celebrated in the home, with friends and family. Festivities will usually include a marathon of the hosts favorite anime, cosplaying, and sometimes random hugging. Gifts are not required or necessarily encouraged, but they can be given. If they are given, they are usually going to be related to Otaku-ism, and are discouraged from being expensive gifts. Traditional food will be anything snack related. Pocky is a great example. No full meals, or healthy food that require preparation. The colors of Anime Day shall be purple and anything else.Anime Day!
Have Fun!"
I loved it last year, and I encourage other people to spread the word about anime day.
It was lots of fun, and I do believe this year will be even better.
I sadly won't have time to watch my favorite anime on the 19th, but I plan to watch something with my siblings so as to further corrupt them into otakuism!
Good Luck!
