Kitacon 2026
Another year of Kitacon, a not-for-profit, Japanese Anime & Geek Culture Convention. I wanted to provide a way to show off the great work the organisers and attendees alike. Please enjoy this microscopic look at "Con Life". Worth adding, this year there were a lot of moments to give to charity; where the convention managed to raise an incredible £4292 for Cancer Research UK. They raised money through their JustGiving page. The theme for this year's convention was around spy's, so Spy x Family, etc. I went as Taro Sakamoto from Sakamoto Days.
