UPDATE: Added cosplay guidelines

The Shizen Orchestra is an East Asian music appreciation convention with emphasis on Japanese music.  I’m glad there’s more conventions popping up.  Looks like the recession hasn’t hit the Anime Community yet (unlike our industry tsk tsk).

In any case, more events means more chances for anime/manga fans to celebrate their passion right?  The Shizen Orchestra is admittedly a new name to my schedule.  The events/activities they’ve got lined up sparked my interest for some good old convention hopping.  Care to join me?
