Panels

Dream destination: Japan

Have you thought about traveling to the land of animes, geishas, mangas, dakimakuras, and sushi? In this case this small panel is just for you! We’ll talk about practical things to pay attention to during preparations, cultural differences, and what to take into account. We’ll give you tips and share our travel experiences, and of course there will be a Q&A.

Haikyuu!! panel

FB event

This year the AniMatsuri festival guests have the opportunity to meet their favourite volleyball champs from Karasuno, Aoba Johsai, Nekoma and Fukuroudani schools! The friends will gather around a table for an hour to catch up with one another, which allows you, dear festivalgoer, an exceptional opportunity to ask them all those questions that have undoubtedly been troubling you for ages..

Why does Bokuto’s hair stick up the way it does? Does Kiyoko only know like five common expressions? What is Oikawa’s favourite face peel? Does Hinata have a hidden side to him? How does Sugawara even exist? Why did Kageyama ditch his friends and not show up at the panel? You can ask all of this and much more at the panel on the first day of AniMatsuri.

To make sure that this panel is fun and safe for everyone, let’s go over the rules:

• This is a panel by the show characters. The panelists themselves are not the focus, so we will not be taking personal questions or opinions on the cosplay quality.
• Pairing questions are allowed, but don’t go overboard, and remember – not everyone ships what you ship. 🙂
• Any questions that the cosplayers are uncomfortable with, they can decline to answer. That is their decision.
• Be positive! This panel is meant to be friendly. (It is also LGBT+ friendly.) The panelists and festival staff may ask you to leave if you are being rude or disruptive.
