Thousands of manga and anime characters took over the Jacob Javits Convention Center over the weekend for the 2024 Anime NYC convention.
The entertainment mecca, located on 34th Street and 11th Avenue, was overrun with cosplayers adorning the looks of their favorite fictional characters over the course of three days.
Anime NYC began in 2017 and features over 800 exhibitors as well as anime screenings, panels and autograph sessions with manga artists, voice actors, and creators. Created by LeftField Media, the convention—which saw 63,000 guests last year and about 100,000 in 2024, was crafted by dedicated fans for fans to enjoy in the heart of the Big Apple.
In addition to the dress up party, fans had the opportunity to play arcade games and trading cards, purchase artwork and other merchandise, and have autographs signed by voice actors.
