5. Comiket 99
Comiket, like AnimeJapan, is another anime & manga convention that sadly was cancelled in 2020 due to the pandemic. However, it is coming back this year in 2021 as Comiket 99! Comiket, as you can probably tell from the name, focuses more on manga than anime and there are tons of manga stalls from popular artists and also new, smaller artists! Due to this, it is a great place to find new manga to read! Another great thing about the convention is the fact that many people who attend the convention cosplay their favourite anime characters and the convention has become famous for this in recent years. If you’re someone who loves manga and cosplay then this is somewhere you have to visit.
