Ichibancon is a Japanese animation, pop culture, and video game convention held annually in Concord, North Carolina. This four-day cosplay event features a variety of entertainment including concerts, live acts, performers, media guests, DJs, artists, cosplayers and vendors.
This year the event runs two consecutive weekends. January 4-7 and January 11-14. You can check out the first weeks photos here.
Guests over the second weekend were different and included voice actors Clifford Chapin, Kristen McGuire, and Linda Young. There is also a lot of things to do such as the Beyblade Beatdown, a silent dance, Karaoke, and several other events. If you weren’t into any of those then there was artists alley, cosplay shoots, shop at the vendors, or you could just hang out with fellow attendees.
