Nico Nico 2018: Chiba Con

Cosplay by @Kana_veil

Nico Nico 2018 took place on April 28th and 29th in Chiba at the Makuhari Messe hall, I only attended the latter on Sunday. This was my second time attending the convention. いらしゃいませ ! 写真を撮りませんか!:D

I ended up arriving a little late at the con, which takes place in Chiba—about 30 minutes east of Tokyo. At-the-door tickets cost 2000 yen, a reasonable price for what the con offers. Once again this year I managed to walk by the ticket booth and had to turn around from the entrance. Maybe third year will be a charm.

Nico Nico has plenty of performances by popular online celebrities and has several various industry booths such as the Japan Army, etc.

My main aim were the cosplay sections and a quick scope through the halls. I wasn't able to manage getting to the north hall. It was near the end of the convention and I thought I had lost my ticket (which ended up being in my camera bag). I'm definitely going to attempt to come earlier next year and actually explore the whole area.

Enjoy the gallery!
