Video Rooms

It wouldn't be an anime convention if there weren't any good anime to watch. Our video rooms are a great place to sit back and relax while checking out the latest and greatest anime from Japan - from old favourites to the latest releases, from the popular to the obscure. It's almost guaranteed that you will enjoy or discover some great anime in our Video Rooms.

Our screening schedule will feature some of the following theme blocks*:

Coming-of-Age Anime

That period in everyone’s life where the transition from childhood to adulthood can be a challenging one. During this period of time, one could face many struggles and obstacles as they deal with their own self-identity, and how to handle changes to their feelings, new environments, and awkward situations. Animes in this subgenre explore the journey of self-discovery and the search for identity, often through unique and complex storylines.

There will be a curated selection of some of the best coming-of-age animes that will be screened in our Video Rooms.
