At the end of this year’s AGF, cosplayers gathered for a walk to help keep Ikebukuro tidy — a way to repay the area for hosting the event.
Ikebukuro’s annual Animate Girls Festival invites the women of fandom — anime fans, gamers, cosplayers, and beyond — to two days of parties, industry events, and fan fun.
And this year, the ladies of Japan showed up in droves, giving the event record-setting numbers for 2017.
