MetroCon Anime Convention
(Friday - Sunday, July 18-20)
Nerd alert. MetroCon is being held all weekend beginning Friday at the Tampa Convention Center. So if you see some strangely dressed people, they’re probably just anime enthusiasts heading to or from the show. I don’t know much about anime other than watching Speed Racer as a kid, but there’s some interesting stuff being done. It’s a bit more mainstream, but I love Miyazaki’s films.
