I take it that the magic of past conventions wasn't their. I feel that conventions will come back to their former glory soon,

Maybe I suppose. Gonna try another convention coming up in August and see how I feel afterwards.

What con are you planning on?

I never heard of Anime Banzai. Is it a small con and what is it all about?

Not quite sure about it's size. Last year it was 4,000, but were talking about post-covid limited attendance policy, on top of that a lot people commented that in years past it was bigger. It is also the only fully anime con in Northern Utah that is not a 'teens only con' (yes there a teens only con).

Teens only con? That's a first I've ever heard of.
