Anime Fest returns to Augusta this weekend
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Anime fest was back in town in Augusta this weekend.
The recurring event went to the Hilton DoubleTree on Saturday to celebrate the Japanese medium, with voice actors, cos-players, and even a lip sync contest.
We spoke to someone visiting about why they decided to come.
“So I love anime, I’ve loved Sailor Moon since I was five years old, so I’ve been trying to get to every con I can this year,” said Dominique Pina, visitor of the fest.
The con is looking to make a return, and there are other pop culture festivals the group hosts.
